THE GENERAL VISITS SP1UNGF1ELD
General M artin's appearance iu Springfield confirms
Ute report th at he "cam paigns with a chip on his shoulder."
No doUbt it will be completely knocked off at the November
election. The general, who is cam paigning for governor
while draw ing pay as a congressm an, says tim es are good.
No doubt they are for a congressm an who has just voted
himself a $100 a m onth raise in pay.
The best thing that could be said about General Mar
tin is th at if elected governor he would be governor in fact.
His long army training fits him tem perm entally to rule with
an iron hand. However, no one would get a sym pathetic
hearing before him and as he is unfam iliar with many of
the sta te ’s vital problems we fear the state's Interest would
suffer.
The general protested to us that he had a plan to bet
ter conditions. Reading bis official statem ent iu the Voters
pamphlet fails to reveal any comprehensive plan. His cam
paign m aterial is full of inaccurate statem ents in regard
to facts th at could easily be found out. Either he is ignorant
of true conditions or listening to poorly informed advisors.
The general appears to us to be a reactionary riding
on a radical band wagon. The rough road of radicalism
annoys and irritates him so th a t he starts a fight at every
cross road— usually over a question he knows little about.
If the general were cam paigning with his own crowd he
no doubt would show up better.
Generals were never popular in the arm y and General
Martin is not popular as a politician except among the
Democratic wheel horses. He takes the same attitude to
ward the voters as he did toward enlisted men in the army.
The only difference is that the voters talk back to him.

ANOTHER VOTE ON POWER
We have always felt that the cheap power talk was
chiefly political. Saving a few cents on an electric light
bill is not the difference between depression and prosperity.
We would still be poor if we got our electricity for nothing.
Lower food and clothing costs, less taxes, better housing
and more employment m ean a lot more to us in better liv
ing but they are poor political issues, displaying none of
the magic as does power. Yet it is the proper solution of
these problems on which prosperity rests.
----------------- --------------------
__________
The theory that we can spend as much in the campaign
against depression as the nation did in w ar is false. It is
like saying th at a man with $100 can spend as much as a
m an with $1.000.
------------------1-----------------
When a m an's wrong and will not admit it, he always
gets angry.
The rich dejtends upon the poor and the poor depends
upon the rich or on the governm ent.

JEREMIAH BUYS LAND
Between the days of Isaiah himself and the tim es of
the Unknown whose chapters conclude the book came the
dark period of the exile, when Jerusalem was destroyed
and its best families carried away captive to Babylon. To
this dark period Ezekiel and Jerem iah belong.
Ezekiel living in Babylon, sought by his exhortations
to keep up the spirit of his fellow-countrym en and fix
their hopes upon a restoration of the Holy City and the
re-establishm ent of their national life.
Jerem iah, in Jerusalem , held high the ideal of personal
and civic righteousness and spoke plain tru th s to the vassal
king, who was allowed by the conquerors to m aintain a
pitiful rem nant of authority and k in g '/ show.
Jerem iah is one of the noblest characters of history
and perhaps the bravest figure in the whole Old Testam ent.
It is too bad that his book is so badly mixed up th a t the
average reader can hardly follow it. He preached In the
temple and in the palace and on the street corners, and
even on the city dump; and neither promises nor threats
could swerve him. Jehoiakim, the weak and futile king, let
the temple go to ruin but fixed up his own palace with a
rich lining of cedar and invited Jerem iah to inspect it.
‘‘Very nice indeed,” sneered Jerem iah. “As a king
you’re a fine judge of cedar. Your father did Justice to
the poor and needy, and it was well with him.”
But thine eye» and thine heart are not but for thy
covetousness, and for to shed innocent blood, and for oppres-
alon and for violence to do it.
For such plain speaking and for his warnings th a t the
Assyrians were sure to viBit punishm ent upon the city,
Jerem iah was cast into prison. Then occurred one of the
m ost interesting business transactions of the Old T est
ament. The Assyrians, as Jerem iah had prophesied, did
come, and they made their camp in Anathoth, where he had
his own little farm. Jerem iah had long wanted to buy an
adjoining piece of land owned by a relative, Hanameel. T hat
wily old man, seeing an arm y of Assyrians camped on the
land, said to himself; "Jerem iah is down there in prison
and probably h asn ’t heard th at the Assyrians have arrived.
This is a good time for me to unload on him.” So he hur
ried to the prison, offered the land, and Jerem iah bought It.
But Jerem iah was not fooled. He knew he was buying ten
thousand Assyrians and he took care to have the purchase
properly recorded in the presence of witnesses, and the
docum ents safely put away.
For thus salth the Lord of howl», the God of Israel;
Houses and fields and vineyard» shall be possessed again In
th li laud.

Another so-called Grange Power bill is on the ballot
this election seeking to put the state into the power busi
ness and paving the way for voting a big block of general
obligation bonds against projierty to build tax exempt
utilities w hether needed or not. The necessity for this bill
has never been quite clear to us. Already there Is sufficient
legislation for cities and power districts wherever organ-
ited, to build power plants, generate, distribute and sell
electrical energy. The president has said th at power would
be generated and distributed at Bonneville exclusively by
the federal government so there would seem to be no room
for state cooperation.
