A number of cases of spring fever have been noted, and Fred Heath has one window of his drugstore piled high with Missouri aassritraa. which he urges aa cure. The doc tors have ft difficult time dla tlngulablng eprlng fever from natu ral ahlftteaaneM. Some of the pa tients are eo doggone weary from spring fever they do not have enough gumption left to cuae Hoover, Five years ago the aprlng fever could be cured by an auto trip to Nova Bcotla, aa soon aa achool waa out, but that waa when the farmers did not know enough not to plant vege tables near the htghwaye, The aprlng fever victim la apt to be found In the ehnrte, where unless watched he will linger until anow files. Also the patient does a good job of loll ing, and la devitalised, and needs more Iron In his beana. When the eprlng fever la rampant, aa now, even Tomua Bwem, when afoot, alows down to 90 miles per hr. and his na tive ehlpperneaa declines In no ticeable degree. April la the leading month for the spring fever. Then many folks eayt "I never feel like doing anything In April." The other II months they won't admit It. Some employ the lawnmower, aa a cure for It. After their wives have driven them to It, you will ee the petlent hammering the lawnmower with a monkey-wrench, because tha lawn mower wont travel over the front yard under Its own ateam. There eema to be no cure for aprlng fever. If elected, I will cure the aprlng fever by abolishing spring, thus cutting down the eipenm and the seasons. The spring fever le not so bad.

The Strange Case of Alfalfa Bill A LFALFA BILL has been found, but the mystery of his dis Bppenrance hasn't been explained. We doubt if it ever will be, at least to the satisfaction of those who assume Alfalfa Bill is what he HIETENDS to be. TPIIE Governor of Oklahoma pogcg as another "Sockless Simpson," a simple-minded product of the soil, crude, illiterate, common as dirt, with only one deep passion in life, the amelioration of the lot of the common man. As a mutter of fact Alfalfa Bill is nothing of the sort. In stead of being illiterate, he is one of the best read men in the United States. Instead of being "sockless" he always wears them, usunlly silk ones. His shoes were off and the socks very much in evidence when he was found, puffing a two-bit cigar, in his Drawing room on the swank "Portland Rose" somewhere in Idaho last night. Instead of being simple, he is extremely complex. AT this point we hear someone say Alfalfa Bill is merely "another demagogue." He is a demagogue all right but not just "another one." He is a very unique and originnl one. Which is only another way of saying he is a demagogue, when his shrewd and calculating mind, tells bim, that it is the profitable thing to be, and at no other time. When he appears before an audienco where demagogucry isn't wanted, as ho did in Washington, D. C, a few months ago, for cxamplo, he is as logical and straightforward and convincing as any true statesman could be. And whon, as happened in his state of Oklahoma not so long ago, support of big business, in the shape of the Oil Trust, ap pears the politio course to pursue, there is Bill fighting the fight of Octopus Sinclair and all the little octopuses. IN Short, Alfalfa Bill is the Opportunist par excellence. Ho i I . ,. ,, . , " w " ", personal advnntaire. Ho is essentially an Individualist, an I "Original"-only interested in fits HIMSELF. A Jt effort lo cinssjfy him fails, nnd any effort ! to chart his future course is futile, because like the chameleon, his color and character at any surroundings. j don't know what impelled him to suddenly abandon the Innc BllfPnrmr nrnlnf nrinf nf rit-nrrnn anA linn thn Tiimirnd ---is -r for Oklahoma City. Rut wn TjO ' convinoed him, attention to his was more important, to him MENT than anything else. So characteristically he dropped Oregon like a hot cake, didn't even tako the trouble to announce a change in plans, and eastward he sped, as fast as train and plane could take him. e e e THERE is a valuable lesson to be derived from this sudden "fado-out" of Alfalfa Bill in Oregon, but we doubt if many will take the trouble to profit by it. Qovornor Murray as a presidential candidate is undoubtedly through as far as this state is concerned. But sooner or later another supcr-domagoguo will take his place, and scores of the rank and file will fall for him, Tho losson is briefly that every supcr-domogogue is also a supor-egotist. Under a smoke screen of devotion to others, he is invoriably dovotcd only to himself. So when any REAL test ootnes and soonor or later the real test always comes, whon the solfish intoreBts of the demagogue and the real inter ests of the rank and file do not ooinoide Tho supor-domagoguo hops the first train for other parts, and his followers poor doludod simps are left as they are today in Oregon, oomplotoly bcfuddlod and mystified about everything excopt that ' THEY ARE HOLDING THE SACK I The Tortoise and. the Hare XlIIILE on this super-demagogue subject, might we add, that if ono searched the entire country for the complete anti thesis of tho type, that search would end at the White House f rresidont Hoovor is undoubtedly the outstanding anti-doma-gogue today in American public life. In fact, if ho were just a little bit more of a demagogue a bit nioro of the four-flusher and professional glad-hander, his political future would look far brighter, than it does today, e e e e IJOWEYER there is one important fact about this demagogue business. It's like the get-rich-quick gold brick business. Works like a house-a-firo for a certain length of time, but sooner or later too frequently LATER it ends in defeat and disaster. It all conies back to'Lincoln's wise aphorism "you can't fool all the people all the time." They may be dishearteningly slow to get onto the graft, lint our political history demonstrates, that eventually they always do. A ND the oonverse is true. The Hoover type, free from guff and bluff, scorning the false and specious arts of the street carnival fakir, climbs a rough and up-hill political road, but he CLIMBS nevertheless. The people don't go craay about him, they refuse to throw their hats in the air whenever he appears, but gradually bit and bit, stop by step, they come to have a certain solid respect and confidence in him. They realiio that whatever falls, they can always depend upon him to do what he believes to be best not for himself, not for this faction or that, but for the people of the country, AS A WHOLE. It is tho old parable of the hare and the tortoise agniu. There has been nothing thrilling or spectacular about tho politi cal progress of Tortoise Herbert but the fact remains he has been going ahead lu his own somewhat lumbering way, while the political hares have beci running around him in circles. A couple of months ago . wouldn't have believed it possi ble. But today we have a strong hunch Will Rogers wasn't as crazy as his follow democrats thought him when he predicted President Hoover would be re-elected. Even today, our prediction would be otherwise.

It's the Public's Fault, What Is Education? New Game, Sock the Rich Copyright King Features synd. Ino. HEARST RANCH, San Sim eon, Cal., April 12. Beautiful, is this mountain side, half way between northern and southern California. W. R. Hearst, born in this state, with newspapers in north and south California, lives, tactfully, in the middle. Ho did not plan it, but built his house on the hills over which he rode, as a boy with his father, who raised cattle and horses here on fields where oats grow wild, and pasture lasts the year round. Easter lillics as big as sun flowers grow in the open here, fifteen hundred feet above sea lovel, and scores of other flow ers, including many that are strange, growing thiok and rank as red clover. Mild eyed kangaroos gaze placidly upon you, free In wide fields, not knowing or caring how they got here, from half way round the world. Emus and cassowartea share their Intellect ual Indifference, and snow white deer from Japan, We human bipeds, similarly, don't know how we reached this rolling aphere, whence we came or whither we are soon to go, and like the emua ft majority of us are free from Intel lectual curiosity. The public learns from Mr. Whit ney, head of Now York's Stock E change that the poor Innocent bears have nothing to do with our troubles, ' The publlo Itself Is responsible. It should not have gambled ao wildly. That recalls the saloon keeper'a re mark pointing to the fallen drunkard "He drank It, I didn't. Why blame me?" Mr. Whitney says also that Mr. Cooltdge Is to blame, for talking eo much about prosperity, thus building up the great bull market of 1029. And Mr. Hoover was to blame for promis ing, In hla campaign, that povorty was about to be abolished forever. President Hoover said nothing of the kind. He said that poverty COULD be abolished. So It could, If the nation had bralna enough to dis tribute Its plenty for all, and If men that rob the people of their savings, with worthless stock Issues were Jailed for life. Instead of being merely ques tioned. -- What Is education? The baseball season begins, and fifty million Americana can toll you about "the Browns, White Sox, In dians, Cardlnala, Yankees.Olants," and Cardinals, Yankees, Giants," and Lefty Qrove, Wesley Farrell, Lefty do mes, Long George Kelly, Hafey, Grimes and all the others. Of the same fifty millions, few could tell you anything about Olor- dano Bruno, Arkwrlght, Archimedes, Servetus, Tamerlane, Harvey, to say nothing of Thales, Pythagoras, or the big three, Socrates, Platan, Aristotle. Yet, Incredible as It may sound to "rooters for the Cubs," any one of the last named twelve will outlive In men's memories, all the baseball play ers and olubs. Insurgent democrats and "progres sive republicans plan, It Is said to "soak the rich, Jack up taxes on the wealthy, Increase surtaxes, estate and gift taxaa, levy all the traffic will bear on luxury commodities." "Soaking the rich," may not prove to be harmless sport, for, strange as It may seem, a nation's prosperity calls for Individuals of Intelligence and energy. Henry Ford, the Du Ponts, some General Motors, and steel men, are rich. Also, they have paid In wages one thousand dollars and more, tor every dollar they own. Well meaning radicals should make sure that THEY can continue paying the wages, before they "soak , the rich", out of existence. A religious order once established Itself In Central America, and arrang ed to "soak the poor" natives, by making them work steadily, no play, only salvation hereafter, guaranteed. The Indians did not like It. and stopped having children. Thsre were no more Indiana to "soak," and the whole scheme was a failure. If earnest radicals soak the rich until the latter cease producing pay rolls, there may be REAL trouble. Joseph Letter, of Chicago la dead.

Common sense tells us that very sudden change from hot to cold Is not dangerous. I n fact a great many Individ uals habitually subject them selves to such change In the belief, probably well founded, that It la beneficial to health. Indeed this la a principle of hydrotherapy or bath treatment. Now I ask you In all sincerity, what difference can It make whether the sudden change Is in water or In air? Or whether It Is a change affecting the whole surface of the body or only a limited area of tbe surface? I hasten to acknowledge that It Is unwise for one who has worked up a profuse sweat by vigorous exercise, play, work, to cease exer cising and sit down without cov ering the portions of body thus warmed up or the whole bcd7 wth enough additional clothing to keep him or her . comfortably warm for an hour or so. Not that there Is any danger of "catching cold," but merely because too sudden chilling Is likely to cause lameness, stiff ness or soreness In the muscles of their fasciae, especially If one la not accustomed to such effort. A person accustomed to the effort, or an athlete who Is In good train ing, is less likely to suffer such soreness. Bo far as we know, from scien tific experiment and from actual everyday experience, there Is no dan ger whatever In sudden exposure to cold after exposure to excessive heat. The point Is that anybody, even an Invalid, may safely throw off the covers or excess of clothing and cool off In a hurry after a profuse sweat has been artificially produced by the application of heat or by hot drinks or medicines. If you can rid your mind from common delusions and traditions about this you will be compelled to admit that nearly all the "deaths o' cold" or "pneumonia" that casual observers predict from auch exposure never happen. And If you can stand off and view the matter through a cynical eye you will discover that In nearly all Instances of honest to goodness pneumonia or bronchitis ascribed to Inclement weather the association of the exposure to cold with the Illness Is In reality a post- hoc idea, that is, the explanation Re planned. It Is said, to buy the Great Wall of China, to preserve It for posterity. Japan will attend to that. He planned a one million egg Incu bator in a Chicago office building. Harvey S. Firestone, the tire man. more practical has his winter office In a Florida Garden. In his last days. Letter from a wheel chair watched his noi.es racing at New Orleans. If he came back, he would probably live the same life again. He possessed great power, made use less by Inherited money, Colonel Lindbergh, swindled out ot fifty thousand dollars by kidnapers, or perhaps by sharpers that success fully posed as tbe kidnapers, waited near a grave yard, while, in the ceme tery, an old man paid the money. The child was to be delivered on board certain yacht. Colonel Lindbergh, who flew to the appointed place, and found no yacht and no child has said "I will not pay another penny in ran som, until the child haa been placed In my arms." When the present search la ended, It Is predicted by his friends that Colonel Lindbergh will become lesder of ft movement to sbste the present highly organised crime menace. Whether his child be found, as all hope It will be, or not. Colonel Lind bergh should make an efficient leader In an antl-crlme movement. Communications Get the Dog Poisoner! To the Editor: Much is said st thla time every yesr about poisoning dogs and other cruel, heartless mistreatment of dogs, but the worst tort of flendlahnesa was disclosed to the Jackson County Hu mane society Sunday, when one of the residents of our city brought his dog to the shelter for treatment by Dr. Horr, our veterinarian. The dog. Rough. Is ft little wire hslred terrier, black and whits, close ly resembling the toy dogs found on Chrlatmas trees for children. When Rough was carried In to the .lamina tion room he was amy able to wag nil tall feebly In appreciation, and upon eismlnatlon Dr. Horr found that some person hsd poured eulphurlo acid on poor Utile Rough's back, burning htm terribly. We all know how serious and painful even smsll burns are. and Rough's back Is so badly burned that hts condition Is critacsl and even If be recovers It Is doubtful . If his wooly white coat will ever grow back. This afternoon 1 went to the shal icr to ae Rough. He was l7inx In his bed on bis side, bandaged from bead to foot, and when I spoke to him he seemed so grateful, although he could GY OF CHILL. Is made AFTER the Illness has de veloped. The soreness of muscles which U likely to occur after unaccustomed violent exercise no matter how cave fully one covers up after the effort, or In some cases even In trained athletes If they are careless, Is prob ably due to local Irritation from lac tic acid compounds produced by the oxidation or combustion of blood sugar, glycogen, in the muscles. These combustion products must be carried away through the blood stream, not through the sweat. If any mechanical change In the cir culation occurs, as from sudden cold on the surface, the removal of these combustion products Is retarded. With good physical training the ca pacity of the circulation to react to the demand is Increased. The well -trained athlete has a better metabolism, a more active general combustion or oxidation process than a person unaccustomed to muscular work or play. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

He certainly Is a brave patient, never crying and only wagging his tall, thanking every one for any consideration. I wish that the thoughtless person who thus tortured Rough could see him, and perhaps realize that no dog could pos sibly do anything to deserve such punishment. Even poisoning Is kind er, because It Hther kills quickly or If Immediately treated, can be coun etracted with less suffering. But I wish to say to anyone who Is annoyed by a neighbor's dog or a stray, speak to the owner or call the Humane society to take care of the dog. Remember, the dog Is man's most faithful and loyal friend, and has performed many valuable serv ices to mankind in war and peace. If you doubt this, raise a puppy and make a friend of him, and you will have an invaluable' possession. MRS. JAMES P. HORR. Medford, April 13. a parents FREEDOM MISINTERPRETED By Alice Jndson Peale. When Jim was a baby bis parents were enthusiastic about a number of new educational theories obtained from various lectures and from books by contemporary scientists, educators and psychologists. They decided to bring up their boy according to what they held to be the gist of their new-found knowl edge. ' Their motto was freedom. Their child should know none of the cus tomary restraints. Ho should eat what he chose, go to bed when be pleased, play or leam -luite according to his own impulses. He should never have to learn the meaning of the word obedience for would not exper ience teach him all that he would have to know? If both parents had not been busy with matters which diverted their at tention from their child they prob ably would have found plenty uf occasion to doubt the wisdom of their course. As It was. they left It to a swiftly changing row of nurses and housekeepers to carry out their Ideas. At 8, Jim represents the perfect picture of the underprivileged, neg lected child. He has not learned the first esent lals about Living with other people. He haa not the falntMt Idea of seemly or considerate behavior. He lies without a shadow of conscience. He Is cruel, even brutal, without a qualm. He has been brought up not In freedom but In chaos. The rules, the short cuts to adjustment in our com plicated. cJTlllred world that every child Is normally given In the form of nurvery training. -hcoling and the guidance of hi parents, have be:n denied him.

What waa Intended to be conveyed by the credible witnesses who were enlightening this writer's dense Igno rance was that the gentleman had partaken of a trifle too much liquor and was not In full possession of his faculties. - He just sat there at the piano and played soulful melodies on It while the prohibition officers dug Into,, the mysteries, of his cabin like a dog digging up a bone. They found nothing suspicious. T1UT THEY reasoned that there was something slightly peculiar about a person who would sit at a piano out In a lonely cabin In such a state of splfflicatlon that he didn't know It when his premises were searched, so they gathered him In and threw him Into the hoosegow. Which ended that part of the story. N OW IT SEEMS that this llluml- nated musician wss really ft moonshiner and that he had made him a lot of liquor by the light of the desert moon, but had suspected that he might be descended upon In force some time, ao he had burled his liquor In good oaken kegs out under a Juniper and carefully con cealed the signs of the burying. After they got through with him In the hoosegow they turned him loose and he went back to his lonely cabin and his piano. . But, lo ana behold, a whale of a snow had fallen and under this blanket of the beau. tlful every Juniper on the mountain looked Just like every other Juniper, and he wasn't able to locate the marks that would tell him where he had burled the kegs. Nor has he been able to locate them since, If local opinion Is accu rately Informed. . . . , . TS a sad tale, mates.
