Tho la.st shot Democracy did have at government, was messed up worse than If it had been handled by a gang of 2nd loots, but think of nil i he catchy phrases that came rolling out of Ihe White House and, as later events proved never meant a-thlng. Yesterday your con, held a learned discussion with 1 1on, P.. Anderson on the improvement in tho moral tone of Hie nation." Thoro are less scallaways than there used lo be," said Air. Ander son, giving the tail of tho Turn many tiger a vicious twist, "and I' can prove it." He furl her held that the orchard run of scallawags wci-e black -hearted and white livered, and had a cast In their lcl'L eye. Tho writer could not. con trad let this testimony, secured in an autopsy on a scatlawag, hut we said to Mr. Anderson, In our most gracious and charming man ner, that there ,had been no de cline In scallawags, hul that they kept out of sight, and were foxier than they used to be. This was ton much for .Mr. A., who departed in high dudgeon, and laughing merrily. Tho more smippler monibers of tho well-known opposite (In-more-wayH-than-one) sex, are sporting t he wind-blown bob.

Tho Htalo fair nt .Sacramento Ik well worth seeing, but the only roally now feature (discovered was the jumping frog contest. The solemn- faced bullfrogs are placed on tho line and an soou'iis they are re leased they proceed to "yum p." To Increase public Interest In the contest, one Ik named Hoover and the other Smith.

J iiwt to show oui; non-partlsanshlp again, we will admit the frog "Hoover" look ed more like his distinguished namesake than the frog "Smith." The Sacramento Ileo, normally republican, is out for the Sow York governor, and according to the Hearst straw vote, Al Ik lead ing In the Sacramento valley by a slight margin. In a copyrighted Franklin D. Roosevelt predicts Smith will carry California and Pennsylvania, although he admits polities are ho scrambled, predic tions at the present if mo are only guesses. Tomorrow Senator Mrwes will give H IS prediction. If Al's chances in Pennsylvania are no better than they are in California, we would say Franklin, as a proph et, is "all wet." ' There Is some sort of a contro versy In the Chronicle as to the origin of the name "Oregon." Here are two views printed today which may interest th Portland Histor ical society: Kdltor The Chronicle Sir: The state of Oregon received Us name through a misunderstanding. Two Swedes Ole and Orry, were pros pecting on the north bank of the Columbia in tho days of yester year. Orry, the only one who could speak or understand Kng llsh to any extent, had taken a trip up river, A party of ex plorers arrive d, and, pointing acrosH the si rca m, asked Ole 1 he name of the country on the other side.

Kill tar The Chronicle Sir: It j Ik my opinion that the true origin i of the name "Oregon" Is the one fiuoteil from the hook, "The Orl- ! Kin of Certain Place Names In the t'nltei States," by Henry (lanneu, j where It says that It Is derived j ! from the s p a n I h h "Oregonos," ! which name was ffl von the Indian: tribes Inhabiting that region by a ; .Jesuit priest, the. word meaning ; "big-eared men," for although the j word "oi-ejones" in Spanish is spelled with n "J" the difficulty ; for the Amerlean to pi-oriounce 1 It mlirht have Influenced the ; chanKlnw of the "j" for a "k."

Texas Oulnan ,now in Holly wood, Is for Al Smith and is very bitter ngninsf the republican ad ministration for. shutting up her profitable night club in New York City. .Mayor Holph of San Fran cisco went down the greet Texas, but something happened, and the greeting was called off. According to the newspapers, Texas, who has been In the habit of sleeping all day and playing on the cash reg ister all night, was dazzled by the glorious California sunshine, and annoyed by It. "What 'sthat?" she Is reported to have exclaimed, when she step- I ped from t he t ra In an d for the first time In ten years met Old Sol face to face, "That's the sun," a newspaper man replied. "For fiawd's sake, turn It off." commanded Texas. Like Al Smith, Texas Is there with the wisecracks, but she spikes the guns of those who claim all the bootleggers are for Hoover! Not that Senator Aloses would not welcome the bootlegger vote. With the bootlegger vole for Hoov er, Smith would be beaten worse than was Alton P.. Parker 'Jl years ago. , R. W. It.

And Just think of it once upon a time even ankles c a u e d street car ' acci dents. . Doct o r s seldom have to treat crick In the n e c k nowadays. The oculists see to that. Dr. Alfred K. Oakos of Elizabeth, S. .1., is fond of elbows, ' Dr. Oak ps lias worked out a method of, well, making one , iton of clinkers, bits of old iron. I stones, sticks and other refuse technically called coal, do the i (work ordinarily done by about 1 ! tons of the same conglomerate. He i doesn't seem to care what kind of heating plant you use in the dis- j couraglng and often vain attempt j to warm your home In the winter i time, lie avers that any old. boiler i if yon will only let the air In lite house circulate. There's the trick. Let the air j circulate. Dr. Oakos urges us -not ; to take ills word for it, hut to try ! it nnil see ftit- mir.selveH whether he is rlKht. And there is no catch in It either. for Dr. Onkes kIvc eomuleu, directions for the 'expci-i- .... . ti-li. if, ., I In -irlt'lui-.u tin hil)Ul.1lnl.lf.r inulr.ll ' m-ii Inn pipe, such as is used for conducl'- ing warm air from furnace to th various rooms, from any point on the first floor to any point on the basement floor. This, declares Dr. Oakes. lirovides an outlet for the I colder air on the floor, which il conveys to l lie basement, whence it Is freo lo enter the furnace in take (If II is an air furnace) or to go wherever it pleases If you have ' n water healer or steam healer. I All well and g"od, a nd I musl say il sounds well enough to me. i bul Dr. Oakcs puts a finishing touch on bis circulator- that j arouses all my worst passions, lie I directs that an elbow be placed on tile pipe, the elbow resting on the. floor of the basement. I am ail for saving elbows, and accordingly I argue that ihe pipo will serve its purpose quite as well if, it just ceases, stops, ends a foot or so above tho floor of the basement. The cold -air will come down the pipe and, when It arrives at the basement floor it will just spread about or make for the nearest exit. Thnl's my theory. However, Dr. Oakes maintains that one who enn't understand the reason for the elbow must lie dumb. J admit the allegation. 1 huVe tried divers attachments and. nos trums that are warranted to save from LTi to iiO tier cent of gas, and tho. old bus still ekes out a good II miles per gallon, nt) matter how much or how little I pay for the gas. Hut 1 don't like the idea of that elbow on the cold basement floor. Keep your elbows off the floor except when you are rolling your somersaults or wrestling or something like that. Anyway, 1 persisted in demanding a plausible reason for tbe elbow, and finally, In a firm but gentle manner, Dr. Oakes told me why be adds the elbow. It holds up the pipe. A similar explanation might be made for the window board or other complicated contrivance to ventilate without admitting drafts. The funny thing holds up the win clow, i ISut l do protest against the in troduction of another elbow into inn already complicated world, just lo bold up a pipe. HI bow or no elbow. Dr. Oakes' circulator is a, good practical idea and his advice that one try it is good advice for a lot of househol ders whose heating plant works poorly. ,U lOKTIOXS .AMI .WSWKRSj The Merger of the (Quacks .
