This part of a tribute paid by Senator Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin in Lu Kollette's magazine to Louis I). IJrandeis, whom President Wilson has nominated to the supreme bench. The senatorial representatives of crass plutocracy are resorting to every expedient to pre vent confirmation ot the appointment and the, tory press is vigorous! v seconding the eilort The reasons for tin's bitter opposition is summarized by Lu Follette as due to lirandeis' courageous fight in the never-ending struggle for democracy. It was Brandeis' genius that exposed the conspiracy to pillage the coal lands o A as ka in the Uullinger case and deleated it. Jt was lirandeis who, in conducting the rate cases for the inter state commerce commission, startled the business world bv declaring the railroads could save a million dollars a dav by efficient, scientific management, which has since been proven. It was lirandeis who secured legal recogni tion ol limitation ot hours ot labor tor women woruers as vitallv essential to the preservation of the race. Jt was lirandeis who led the long fight against the New Haven's financial ehicanerv which time has vindicated. It was lirandeis who made the fight in Massachusetts for better control ot public utilities. It was lirandeis who originated state industrial insurance and secured its adop tion m the 15av State. It was lirandeis who has arm trated numerous iiidusjrial dispujes. It was lirandeis who has given freely of his time and service, unselfishly and patriotically, to appear as the people s representative be fore legislatures, congress and courts. And finally, it is lirandeis who has assumed responsibility of a movement to relieve the Jews of all countries from the yoke of op pression and injustice and open a refuge for them. iMr. La Follette concludes as follews: 'The selection of lirandeis to this place of power and influence must strengthen the confidence of all who love democracy in President Wilson." SIMPLIFYING THE ISSUE IT is currently reported that Colonel Roosevelt read and nnnroved the "kevnnte" sneech delivered bv Senator Flihu Root at the New York republican convention. Whether he did or not, the speech indicates that only on the question of preparedness and foreign relations can the republican factions unite. ' With the flood of prosperity at high tide throughout the east, the calamity cry has had to be shelved. The adop t ton of the tariff commission plan by tho administration has pigeon-holed the tariff issue. The stand-pat and pro gressive programs tire wide apart on other issues. The keynote speech means that the campaign is to be made upon the failure of the president to invade Mexico and to participate in the Fiiropean war against (lermany because of the violation of lielgian neutrality and the sinking of the Lusitania, and because of the unprepared- ness ol the nation to participate in war. This will much simplify matters. Those who believe that in keeping the nation neutral and at peace with tho world the president has been right will have an oppor tunity to voice their approval. Those who believe the nation should have gone to war will be given a chance to declare for war. As far as the nation's preparedness goes, it is just what sixteen years of uninterrupted control of the government by the republican party has made it. If the army and navy are jokes, they are republican jokes. The nation Jias spent enough money on them to realize something.

Overcrowding in at reel cars, theater" and other public places is iinrpiestionably in part responsible for tho spread of pneumoiiin in cit iis, an far greater opportunity is thus offered for the dissemination of tho predisposing diseases through in discriminate coughing mid other moans of droplet infection, as well as tho directly injurous effects which inevitably result from cx)osure to such environment. The overheating of rooms is also seemingly harmful. Promiseiioiw expectoration may bo. and probably is, a factor in infection and consequently should be avoided by everv citizen. A remaining most important agent should be mentioned alcohol. It is in truth the hand maiden of pneumonia, and there i nono more certain or more sure of Kiteeeas, especially if liberally and continuously used.

All beet raisers who aro depending on Japanese labor slionld notUy the field miporlntondont'or tho company office nt ouca," oto. llnng! That Is tho firat gun lu Jnpantzlng tho Itoguo rlor valley. making It an common an any oriental district anywhere lu our alstar state to the south; a valley equipped and peopled only with tl(d.lord of lamia aud hla swarm of oriental peona, auli HiHtliig on rice ahlpped from their own countr) ; lieona hired to throw decent white labor Into n condition worse than alnvory. Truly, this spee taole la delightful for local people depending on labor for their auate nance. Kven now the local wngo Is o scant that it Is hard to got with It the scanty supply ot staples for the moat ordinary table, most of which la raised here. Thla mia-reprosentatlve sugar beet company has thus suggested a system of cheap labor for thU vnlloy In or der to make u better showing In profits. Ily It the het grower must hire rlee-eaters If he wlskee to keep ou good terms with Ihe sugar com pau. White labor In thla valley must be Japanlsed, so fur as wagt for Hork Is concerned, or go without a c lumen to earn a living. The val ley has Iota of nbito labor In It. Large families live herowhoee mem bers are anxious for work. They aro Industrious and practical. Thla is labor of the hlgheat type, ot the moat efficient type, of tho right type. Why should labor have to work so ehoaply If there Is so much wealth la augur beet ralslug? I have had charge this wluter of over 100 white laborers-la orchard work. Thoy j-ecelvetl Just ami fair treatment and earned every cent of their wuge. They Hera white men, not yellow. They Here progressives, not shambling slaves. They live hero aud desire to continue to live hero. They didn't earn tholr wages to ship an ay to some foreign laud. Thoy lived like white men; not on rice and soups. They consumed local products; not stuff shlppod in from somo foreign laud. Tho cry In that wo havo not enough mon and lioya (aud girls, too) ; not enough of thorn will work through tho full konson. That la all bosh. So licit them to work Show them how. If tho same amount of caio Is oxerclsed in doing that as Is shown to tho Japs thoy will do bettor work and keeji tho monoy at homo. While wo nro talking about patronizing home Industry let us begin with home labor--labor that la housed lu local homos, that buys local groceries and other goods. Thousands of people In this valley will be with me when I aay that I am opiioeed to shipping lu foreign labor of any color, but particularly tho J a its. whose hordes have swarmed into California until the white laborer has no chance there. If this Is new work, toach our own people how to do it. Ood kunws they need the work and the scant money It will bring. Thla Jap labor auggeatlon from the sugar corporation Is an evil proposi tion. Mark my word. Uutnloy only American labor In this valley. Keop it white. Keep it Amerleau. Surrounding valleys have hundreds of white poopla wh6 would be glad to get the work, if wo haven't enough people of our own to do it. If they have moro Japa than they want in Utah, let them send them somewhere else. Rogue rlvt-1 val le does not want them. C . Ml'NSOX 0 Clears Away Pimples WHAT CAUSES COLDS? 'Ibis question is askl ever) day. A cold is tc.illy a fevtr, not alua) caiucd by the v catlicr lu.t often due to disordered blood or latk of important food-dements. In changing seasons fat-foods are essential because they distribute heat by enriching the blood and so render the system better able to withstand the varying clement. This is tbe imKrt.int reason why Scott's Kinulsion should alwj)s be taken for colds, and it does more builds strength to prevent sickness, Scott's Kinulsion contains Nature's rarestietigtli building fats, so skillfully blended that tbe Mood profits fiom ever)1 drop.
