''FOLITIS MAKE 8TB ANOE BED-FELLOWS"
:
TIIe Kpeclliy'lc or Senator Jim "Watson, standing like Horatio
JL at the brKlifc, and derc pujiiB- the ailmiuiKtration s fann
rflipr bill acaiiia the attuckij of loiijj-haired liarltarians, like
Brookhart of Iotva,.is eiiougli Jlo make a wooden Indian lamrli.
Kor what was' tho, bfock-fr pnkej and oleagiiioiin Jim doini;
ew than u year usJO. le iw.L touriiiff the hinlitvays mid by
ways of nnreiiencrate Indiana, B:i in basting the aristocratic "Lord
Herbert," an tho arch 'enfeniyf 0f (ho harassed farmer, whose
nomiiiuliou , and election' w6uBd mean, "the deifioation of the
Wall Street Maiiimoiij andlhc tenslnvemeflt of the liberty-loving
husbandmen in the propertied peasant elass." ' !
The question .nuturally aj-istj , vtio bus chantfed? Kns Presi
dent Hoover chau(?ed liis viewKj of farm relief; has he become a
different mini j. v huh fbe Seuaior from Indiana, transform'ed.
become a Htatcsnian and liic ol-er to tho Hoover school of ag
ricultural betterment? . . . .
THE probable answer is "nCitt'ier." Certainly the President
hasn't changed, and,' uulcss('.'c are much mistaken, if the
seutorian "Jim" could follow liis', natural instincts aud convic
tions, he would again be making t .Senate ceiling vibrate with
his love for the downtrodden farmver, and Jiic. condemnation of
the anti-Debenture form of salvatio.y '..
Hut lie can't.; At least, he can't and kciip his present job as
administration leader in the Upper blouse, and a good political
job is something the senior Scuatutr front' Indiana has, ne'er
been known to relinquish..
IT LS all highly amusing, as fortunately is often the case in
politics. For if one couldn't faugh at the political pageant
now and. then, there would be no tweape but tlus. Mud-irouse.
We only hope President HooverMins a sense of humor, that
is, a; more active one than most' p'ertplc believe he has. For in
trie stress and strain of this Senate buttle, he could find genuine
relaxation and spiritual refreshment by observing the pompous
James go soleuuily through 'liis rule,' of Hoover Champion and
'Deliverer. :. -V .' . ; . ( '
A STKANOE
OF course Senator Watson is not the only one.. It is an open
secret that Vice-President: Curtis Jias about ns much use
for President Hoover as he lias for tho Einstein theory which
is respect without affection. , ,.
His predicainent is not like lhafc; of the Indiaiiit ChittuiKniun,
however. The. dislike of Senator NMatson for Mr. Hoover Is the
instinctive dislike of the demagogue tor tho statesman
There .is no dislike in the Viccy 'resident's reaction. He
doesn't hate Mr. Hoover, any more. than lie hates the Einstein
theory. Put he warms up to neither because he can't under
stand them. ' '
EX-SENATOR Cl'KTlSi is not a Jcmagogiie. He is simply
a perfectly regular and entirely, unimaginative partisan.
To his mind there are certain definite rides of the. politieul
I game, and he instiuctily distrusts any Republican who jjoesn't
, strictly adhere to them. ..
j' . President Hoover js such a Republican. Mr. Curtis can't
understand the appointment of Attorney Clenerul Mitchell, for
i example, for while the Minnesota lawyer is extremely able, he
'once voted the Democratic ticket! Nor can he understand the
appointment of forlner Vice-President. 'Dawes as Ambiissudor
to Croat Britain. - . v -'
The. first appointment violates his theory of partisan, and
the second his theory . of personal loyHlty. . General Dawes op
posed Secretary Hoover's nomination, und contributed to the
primary fund of the anti-Hoover cabal. Yet President Hoover
turns around and gives hit .primary opponent the most import
ant post in the diplomatic service, over the heads of applicants
who were his loyal friends. 3 . I
One can fairly ncc the passionately purtisun Vice-President
scratch his sparsely-thatched dome iu perplexity and niorlil'icu
tioli. Iu his school of politics such things arc not done. Put
.that is thii Jloovct .way, to fill tho various important posts with
the best men he can find, regardless of all partisan aud per
soniil considerations. . . ..
" f
IN other words, as has frequently been pointed out iu this col
umn, we have an entirely new type of President in the White
House, a type that Republicans like 'Watson inevitably dislike,
and Republicans like ex-Senator Curtis cannot understand.
' As surprise and coutrast are important elements of humor,
wc linvo an amusing situation now, und more situations of the
same kind arc certain to arise. ' '
And, ns has also been pointed out here, sooner or later the
people of this country will discover that the election of Mr. Hoo
ver as President marked the close of one political epoch, and
the beginning of another, iu this interesting and kulicdcscopic
land of ours.
Even .Senator Robinson upproves of not shaking hands with
the President. Shuking fists at him, however, is no doubt an
other matter.

Press Comment
WISCONSIN WKT; WHAT OF IT?
1 By voting, as Indicated by 'In
roinplete returns, for repeal of tho
ilate law for enforcement of the
federal prohihlllon law. Wisconsin
has expressed Its opposition 'to
prohibition. But Wlscunsln has a
distinct individuality us 'a stute,
and Its altitude is no sign of gen
eral trend of opinion to ward the
wet cause throughout the country.
A large proportion of its popula
tion by training regards -beer as a
food and resents legal Interference
with its habits. What element has
contlnuod the offensive against dry
laws, refusing to accept the eigh
teenth amendment as a final set
telment of the liquor question. The
voters may hnvo been Influenced
by tho killing of Mrs. -PeKlng .by
a prohibition' officer. , many: of
(hem favoring prohibition ,in prin
ciple. but recoiling from 'the blood
shed in its behalf, particularly Jn
the circumstances under which
Sirs. DeKing was shot. . .
Wisconsin might vote to repeal
tho eighteenth amendment, but the
states that .might line up with It
could bo counted on one liandi The
south and west' and the greater
part of New Kngland arc Irretriev
ably dry. Having found state pro
hibition a leaky defense against
liquor, tlioso sections declared for
national prohibition and are not
disposed to change because a few
states ' choose to remain lawlessly
wet. JCvcn under that condition
dry states find enforcement --by
the federal governments at the
national boundaries more effective
than they could have . hoped to
make stale enforcement, at their
several state boundaries. . , -
For several years past a large
part of the work of prohibition en
forcement has been to . Identify
clearly the recalcitrant states. By-
Its vote v Isconsln has helped lit
this work. It has iu effect invited
the federal forces to make an at
tack in forco. by voting .to give
them no help. Portland Orego-

The contention is titat milrket

cent of thu peoplo who ought to J
have the benefit of using tills roud I
as well as paying fur It, live nurlh j
of the present survey, why . not l
make it a trunk lino ruad for thu
ihlrty-nino ranches wilhiii a one
mile average radius uf same,
these ranches having an acreage of I
more than six thousand acres and
much of same Is practically road
less. altho;jiot taxless, but perhaps
politically friendless. This is not
an appeal for alms, but for Justice
and a square deal to a peoplo who
have, contributed generously for
fifty years to tho building of urban
road und with pride and lnwurd
; glory.
j liuwevcr, If we now must be
isolated -or perhaps crucified for

fearing people of Jackson county
will nut suffer our lifeless forms
to be luid at rest In a swamiry
sink-hole or a desert waste so bar
ren that grasshoppers and digger
squirrels dare not detour without
a stock of provisions and liquids
sufficient fur the Journey. What
a vision of the future tile late Gov
ernor Wltnyconibe must have had
when he said, "If this market load
law is enacted 1 liopo these peoplo
will bo rewarded by it." Ono of
tho last . official acts' of Judge
Gardner was to have W. L. Van
llouten make a preliminary,' un
official survey for this road exact
ly whero these petitioners now de
mand this market road bo' con
structed. . (
Give theso thirty-nine ranches
back the tuxes paid into the coun
ty depository the last ten years and
we can build a ' macadam road
thru this same territory to Dodge
brldgo ourselves without aid, ud
vleo or consent of anything other
than a plain old farmer who sim

To bo sure, our geogruplilcul
position places us most sadly in a
hopeless minority but wo still have
abiding faith when wo reflect that
even John the Bnptlst wandered
out into the wilderness to pray,
l.ucllsts and wild honey may not lie
