Would the people of the United States be better off with a dictator to control its policies ? We sometimes t feel that the people do so poor a job of governing themselves, through their duly elected representatives, that they would be much better off with a one man government. The thought is abhorent that in this enlightened age that people are not fit to govern themselves. But are they ? In *11 this talk about taxes, and the seeking-of new mean* for extracting funds with which to pay government expenses, why is there not more talk about cutting the expense* of govern ment, even to 50 percent?

Republican insurgents in the Unit ed States Senate, that voluble and critical quartet composed of Norris, Johnson, Cutting and LaFollette, may find time hanging heavy on their hands when the new Congress is as sembled for business during the year ahead. • These men held the balance of pow er for the pas'-, two years. Democrats were willing to be entirely chummy with the insurgents because the par ty of the donkey needed their votes. It will be different when the new ^Congress assembles. The Democrats have an easy majority, that is, if the leaders can hold all members in line. The votes of the insurgents will not be required and the quartet will not hold the balance of power. Political observers at 'Washington incline to the view that some of the insurgents may find it easy to elide gracefully back into the Republican fold, although that is not easy to as sume when all four are considered. Probably much will depend upon the quality of leadership the Republicans supply when the defeated party ral lies its forces and reforms its lines.— Ohio State Journal (Columbia, Ohio). r DISLOYAL TO OREGON? The following editorial which ap peared in yesterday’s Oregon Journal ia along a line which appeals to every Oregon booster and the truth of its statements cannot be denied. It also brings to mind the thought that news papers are frequency asked by mer chants to wage a trade at home cam paign, and yet those same merchnts may be ordering their advertising bills or printing supplies outside of town because possibly they can save a little. That’s one thing we have al ways felt in regard to the trade at home idea—everyone wants the other fellow to do what he doesn’t do him self. „ But we do heartily approve of the Journal’s editorial, although we so seldom find anything to commend in that daily: I 1 Disloyal to their own producers? Oregonians are not ready to admit it—but there ia suspicion abroad that some of them are not faithful to home products.
