UtUtl t DmoilTailAciArioM Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry The 4th of July Is again upon us, and people will celebrate the birth of the nation even though It Is not worth living In, a tne poor are tun poor, and the rich are itlll rich, and there ! an uneven distribution of the wealth and the luck. ' There was a prizefight Wed. night, and many familiar face, at tax revolt meeting, were eeen well down In front, despite the surplus of agricul tural produce. Summer flu Is being enjoyed by some, but the best time to enjoy the flu Is In the winter time. It la very aggravating to have a chill, with the mercury at 100 P. The Republican party Is getting along as well as could be expected, considering the chance It has, since being desorted by the Bates Boys, on the 3Sth Inst. The Older Oirls are now merrily engaged In canning oherrles, and It Is an awful Job to pit same. The cherries also stain the hands, the stains being noticeable while dealing the cards at a bridge game. Alfalfa Frank Bybee, the J'vllle serf Is stationed on the end of a pitch fork, and has been drinking water with oatmeal in It, these days, The magnolias are blooming, and are among the few things left that bave nothing radically wrong with thorn. All the radios were busy Frl. night listening to the Democrats make nominating speeches, and the orators praised their candidates in no un certain terms, and puffed them up as if they were a gallon of new-fangled gasoline. The boys who will be first to go In the next war, rtd the past week from the seashore, where they learned military tactics, and how to eat crabs and other denlsens of the deep. .... The law got after a bunch of Juve niles last week, when It was discov ered they were following In the foot steps of the Doukhocors, and going in swimming informally, Though madly Infatuated with the 1030 hooey, that was going to get them free electrlo light, the rank and file don't seem to think much of the Willamette valley plan to establish state-owned mints. J. Curtis Barnes had his socialism weighed and found wanting. Wed. p.m. The ex-Kan,an was going home with a watermelon, and refused to divide it 60-60 with your corr., who was In dire need of watermelon. All the oilcans did a . good business over the week-end, as doeens who could afford to buy no auto license, prepared to hit out for distant points. ... Economy has etarted to rut up the rural roads, as they have not heard any of the budget-balancing speeches. The sslary of the schoolma'ams has been pruned, but what she pays for board never was enough. Arguments are plentiful and easily picked, . , There was a blonde here from Frisco last week, and she seemed quite Intelligent. She caused male bearts to thump taster, and male hair to be combed neater. The first V-8-ed story of the year allowed up Tues. and practically every body has heard It, or knows some body who has, V Shade Is enjoying a brisk demand these days, and is always on ths other side of the street, ... Somebody made a mistake Wed. vng, and got a rubber tube Into F. Beheffel'a tank, but considerately left him enough gas to get home, . TJss of corners, as things to cut and turn Is on the increase, and can be so dona without much danger of running over a local economle expert. ... Progress has scored again. Many have self-watering rigs on their lawns. It will not be long now, until some America genius finds a way for the lawns to mow themselves. The annual Montana. Missouri, Georgia, Kansas, lows, Illinois. Indi ana, Dakota (North and South), and Scandinavian society picnics are about due. A "Break" for Hoover WELL at last President Hoover has had a "break". Frank lin D. Roosevelt is the one candidate he has a chance to beat. It isn't, in our judgment, a very "fat" chance, for every thing points to this being a democratic year. But it IS a chance, and the Republican war horses will be quick to take advantage of it. GOVERNOR Roosevelt's chief weakness comes from the fact that he hails from New York. As a result he must carry the Tammany burden, or be bitterly fought by the Tammany machine. The first would mean, the loss.of votes and popularity outside of Manhattan; the second might mean the loss of New York state, in the November election. If Roosevelt runs true to form, he will try to side-step this issue as he has so many others. He will try to get the rural and small city vote, by posing as the foe of the Power trust, the champion of the "forgotten man" he will try to placate Tammany by the distribution of patronage and giving them a free hand at the City Hall. ' Such a policy might get by in a party convention, but we doubt its success with the American people in their present mood. The American people as a whole are tired of politics and tired of politicians, a candidate who tries to put over the old army game this year is going to get in decidedly hot water, before the campaign ends. On the other hand, if Governor Roosevelt follows the ex ample of President Wilson as we hope he will defies Tam many Hall, and rests his cause upon an appeal to the people of the country, then he stands to lose the 45 electoral votes from Now York state, nearly ten percent of the total. TPHUS at the outset Governor Roosevelt faces a serious dilcm- ma, an inescapable test of stamina and character. Will he meet it in a courageous forthright fashion, after the manner of his illustrious cousin T. R. ; or will he fall back upon the traditional method of his brnnch of the family, and by trying to please both factions, please neither t It will be very interest ing to see. . e e e "VBVIOUSLY had Ritchie, or Baker, Byrd or Garner been the nominee, any serious complications of this sort would have been avoided, none of them would have been personally involved in the New York mess in any way. Nor would any of them have had to fight the prejudice, that exists, out in the wide open spaces, against any typical New Yorker, particu larly one as wealthy and aristocratic, as the Governor of New York state. 'T'HE vice-president hasn't been nominated at this writing, but we will be greatly surprised, if Garner isn't chosen. Not only because Garner, with McAdoo were responsible for Roosevelt's victory and should be rewarded, but because such a selection fits the Roosevelt political psychology, down to a gnat's eyebrow. He has a personally dry candidate on a wringing wet plat form, now he will want the horney-handed-son-of-toil type, to balance the Bcion of wealth and social prestige, at the head of the ticket. Garner is the hard-bitten, rough-diamond, Andrew Jackson type, Roosevelt is essentially the Alexander Hamilton Andrew Mellon type. The TWO a perfect combination in the nominee's lexicon of practical political strategy. The Same Old Tiling OO it promises to be Hoover and Curtis against Roosevelt and Garner. The time-honored battle of votes, that shakes this country to its emotional foundations every four years, is about to begin. During this period nearly everyone is going to be a trifle crazy. Things are going to be said and done that would never be done or said, at any other time. Friendships will be broken, even homes disrupted. With prohibition as a vital issue, the fnt will be in the fire from the outset, and on nearly every kitchen stove there will be a keg of dynamite. Hoover and Curtis will be painted as simps and imps of Satan by one faction, and saint and saviours of the country, by the other. It will be the old, old game, played in this land of the free, for nearly one hundred and fifty years, only it promises to be a trifle worse. With poople starving, embattled hosts will be crying for a drink j with business prostrato, literally millions of dollars will be thrown away, to settle the difference between Republican twcedle dum and Dcmooratio tweedle dee. e e e e TOR it is perfectly clear to any thinking person NOW though it won't be dear a few months hence, that as far as the fundamentals of human life are concerned, whether Hoover and Curtis, or Roosevelt and Garner enter office on March 4th next, will make no difference whatever. If this country is going wet, it is going wet, regardless of who happens to sit in the White House j if this country is going to 6tay dry, it is ffoiniT to stay dry, and no President of the United States can prevent it. If business is 'going to improve the next four years, it is going to improve regardless of the party label on tho White House door j if it isn't, then no partisan continuation or political chango is going to prevent it, e IN spite of the cynical prophets and the oalamity howlers, in the FUNDAMENTALS the moral and material destiny of the people of this country, lie not in their politicians but in their OWN hands. As tho two major parties are at present constituted, the only difference the fall election will make, to the people as a whole, is the difference between one party label and another, a difference of serious importance 'ONLY TO THE OFFICE HOLDERS. But under the spell of the prevailing political psychosis, few of us are going to believe it, and so the eraiy snake dance of political partisanship will go on, and on and on. Strange Bedfellows IT was predicted in this column that Roosevelt would be the nominee. Everything broke in his favor, but the determina tion of the delegates to avoid a repetition of the McAdoo-Smith deadlock, was really the deciding factor. It was Roosevelt or deadlock and the weary delegates CHOSE Roosevelt. But it was not predicted and nothing came to the present writer as more of a SURPRISE, than the spectacle of W. G. McAdoo, throwing California to Franklin, and thus deciding his nomination. We happened to be in California during the primary cam paign, and we saw McAdoo at that time. His opinion regarding Franklin's QUALIFICATIONS as president of this country, are so well kn6wn in Southern California, and were so widely publicized at that time, that we wonder what alibi he will pre sent when he returns. Probably none. For there is nothing shorter than the peo ple's memory when a political campaign is on. Two months ago McAdoo was fighting Roosevelt with might and main, last night he nominated him, and tomorrow he will take the stump in his behalf.

Canine nature Is not unlike hu man nature. Peo ple who have be lieved for a life time that when one feels out of sorts or generally rotten It's h 1 s liver or bowels that are torpid are not likely to get It at all when I shout and tear my hair und dance atioat In a fury trying to tell them that Is a ridic ulous notion. They Just think I'm a queer nut. Especially when their good doctors give them a liver reg ulator or an Intestinal disinfectant or a bowel wash or a corrective diet and pretty soon they're feeling all right again. Nevertheless and all the world and his wife to the contrary notwith standing, I tell you, you poor nin nies, that the idea Is absurd. It Isn't your liver or your bowel that Is torpid; It's your mind. Must be your mind, or else you'd snap out of It some time and apprehend clearly that you get over such oc casional depression Just as surely and Just as promptly In any case, no matter what remedy you use or whether you resort to a remedy or not. You get over It because, fortu nately, the process of metabolism tn the body is automatically regulated, and It la In no way dependent upon the function of the liver or the bowel. Laxatives, purgatives, cathartics do NOT remove any poisonous material from the blood or the system. They merely hurry the evacuation of water, perhaps temporarily Increase the amount of water excreted, and also Vie normal residue of food and any foreign material which may have been ingested. Here we come to a morbid subject, mucus. Mucus Is the normal lubri cant secreted by all healthy mucous membranes. Irritation or inflamma tion of any such mucous membrane induces the secretion of an Increased quantity of mucus. (Noun, mucus; adjective, mucous). Bowel washes or colon Irrigations necessarily Irritate, even if only wa ter be used. The more frequently such unnatural "Internal bath" is resorted to the more mucus is pro duced, and many an unhappy hypo chondriac learns to regard the ex cess of mucus as something .harm ful or evil In Itself, and so the "internal bath" habit becomes self perpetuatlng. I fear a few brass specialists within regular medical ranks take advantage of the mental weakness of their patrons and build up a profitable business Irrigating the alimentary tract, though the Today's Guest Editorial The Mail Tribune, thanks to the courtesy of the American Legion, li printing a series of guest editorials written on Important questions of the day ly prominent citizens In various walks of life.

The American people have a bet ter opportunity this year to acquaint themselves with the Issues Involved in a national election, and to act upon their own conclusions, than in any previous presidential cam paign. During the months preceding the election, the various candidates will personally speak to the voters tn every part of the country. From their offices and homes, and from public gatherings, the candidates wlU send their voices into millions of homes by radio. They will lay down their platforms before the entire electorate of the nation. They will make their pledges and argue their points before a vast audience In an amphitheatre of three million square miles. Between now and November 8. the citizen who wishes to do hia patriotic duty and cast his ballot intelligently must necessarily engage in a great deal of thinking. A flood of claims and counter-claims on many complex subjects wlU be put before him, and he must weigh them and make his decision. He must attempt to sift the truth from all that he hears and reads. He must analyze each statement, and decide for himself what Is beat for the nation. The difficulty, of course, lies In the act that the average man Is not fully conversant with the de tails of such subjecta as tailffs. various fornw of taxes, certain as pects of International relations, na tional financing and other compli cated affairs of atat. With this difficulty in mind, tbe National Broadcasting Company Is now conducting regular non-partisan programs over the air. in an effort to acquaint men and women everywhere with the facta about Brady, M. D. OR YOUR MIND greatest offenders In this line of ex ploitation are fad healers. Bo firmly fixed Is the obsession that our common ailments, If not the gravest Ills, come from some vague poisoning of the body by un defined toxic substances In the ali mentary tract, that it is like bounc ing a new rubber ball on a brick wall telling the dumb layman this morbid Idea is without foundation in fact. And with rare exceptions every layman is pretty dumb about this. Why shouldn't he be? Haven't all the doctors, both regulars and quacks, been exploiting him on this basis from away back right up to the present moment? Has anybody without obvious bias tried to teach the dumb layman better hygiene or .health care? By bias I mean the interest of the health teacher who has underwear, beans or real estate to sell you. Your health Is my con cern but It Is not my business; In any case your health depends on nothing I can sell you, but maybe I can teach you something that will prove a boon to your health. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Nostrums Have the Laugh on Government Kindly advise whether any harmful effects will result if a man dally consumes 8 ounces of Wine Tonic containing 23 per cent of alcohol medicated with herbs. These wine tonics are legally sold by drugstores. (Mrs. H. A. M.) Answer The "herbs" or other med icinal virtues" In such hootch are practically without effect. The al cohol has the same effect as It would have In whiskey. Whiskey contains about twice as much alcohol as that, so the equivalent would be four ounces of raw whiskey.

Gradual tanning Is the Index of In telligent management. government. In its various forms, and to explain and interpret, as well as to clarify, the Issues which the voters must settle with their bal lots. It Is Imperative, especially at e. time like this, that everyone should take an Interest, and an active Interest, tn government. If the public does not express itself at the polls, after Intelligent study of the situation, then the public cannot complain If its wishes are not ful filled. Therefore it Is to be recommend ed that all who may do so should read their newspapers and magazines carefully and thoughtfully, and listen attentively to the many excellent speakers on the radio, who will discuss national affairs. Among the foremost of these are the eminent students of government and economics speaking every week undr the auspices of the National Advesory Council on Radio In Edu cation, an Impartial, non-partisan orgs nutation. The series on "You and Your Government" which they are presenting every Tuesday in cooperation with the American Po litical Science Association and the National League of Women Voters is exceptionally Illuminating. Other programs of great value heard regularly are presented by the American Taxpayers League, the International Radio Forum, the For eign Policy Association, the Na tional Security League, the National Radio Forum, the American Bar As sociation, and by such trained ob servers of national and world events as William Hard, David Lawrence and James O. McDonald. The men and women on the broadcasts are Informed upon mat ters of stat and local, as well as national and International, Import ance. A few hours pnt with them. , and supplemented by reading and thought, will help immeasurably In clearing the picture. It Is the duty of every citizen to keep Informed about his govern ment, and to exercise the right to a voice In that government, Tuesday: Hon. Albert C. Ritchie, Governor of Maryland. Today By Arthur Brisbane Still Tugging, Milwaukee, Well Governed, And Beer Is Coming, One Cow, Four Calves, Copyright King Features Synd, Ino. CONVENTION HALL, Chi cago, July 1. The delegates are about to resume the tug of war. At one end of the rope Governor Roosevelt stands with 682 votes on the last bal lot taken late this morning, after an 'all night struggle. Senator Walsh was eating his breakfast at the Blackstone hotel at half past nine after running the convention all night. He is past Beventy years of age, few men of fifty, or forty could have stood the all night strain as he did, and show no signs of fatigue. On the last ballot Governor Smith had 190 1-4 votes. He had had 201 3-4 on the first ballot. Governor Roosevelt had votes from 38 states. Governor Smith from only ten states. But he has intense political ingenu ity at his end of the rope, a great advantage. n The struggle begins, to last all night, the zct:s column! will tell you what happened. Normally, with a great deal more than a majority of the convention Governor Roosevelt would be nomi nated. But he has not two-thirds of the delegates, and under that twe thlrds rule, thoroughly undemocra tic, a minority can rule the conven tion and dictate the candidate If It holds out long enough. Alter the all night session, when delegates went to bed, to restore their mental treasures with sleep, this writer drove to Milwaukee. A twelve cylinder Pierce Arrow car cov ered the hundred miles Including traffic In a little less thsn two hours. To see Milwaukee, the old Pflster Hotel, the beautiful lake front and especially to see a city In which crime is so thoroughly discouraged as to be almost unknown, is a pleasant change from the convention. In Mil waukee the district attorney makes his complaint, the trial takes place and the man Is apt to find himself on his way 1 to prison the same day. Twenty-five to thirty years Is the usual term for banditry, and If a man Is caught committing a crime with a loaded revolver on his person, there Is no allowance for good behavior. No nonsense of any kind. He STAYS In Jail from twenty-five to thirty years. Criminals despise Milwaukee. - When, as In the oase of a man who shot Theodore Roosevelt In a public meeting In Milwaukee, a crim inal Is pronounced Insane, he goee to an asylum Inside the prison walls and stays there the rest of his life. And there Is no "lunacy expert" non sense, In Milwaukee. The Judge ap points the expert, the report Is al ways unanimous, for when experts are not paid there la no difference of opinion. You can guess that both Republi can and Democratic parties declaring In favor of beer, Is good news In Mil waukee. The big breweries among the most famous in the world, are ready, bottling machinery, big tanks for storage, all prepared to relieve the great national thirst. Irwin Jante. Wisconsin farmer near Hale's corners, has a three year old Holsteln cow that has given birth to four calves at once. Mother and calves all doing well. That Is looked upon ss a good omen by all Wiscon sin, particularly by Milwaukee's skill ful brewers. Milwaukee Is actually run for citi zens that work and pay the taxes, no Inside clique for whom the tax payers work year In and year out There Is no graft in Milwaukee. "You can't even give a cigar to a policeman," according to reliable tes timony. Mayor Hoan elected this spring for the fifth time with the biggest vote he erer got, la a socialist. The gov ernment that the late Victor Berger gave to Milwaukee still functions well. Extreme radicals call tt "Victor Berger's conservatism" becsuse It cle clares for social changes only In ac cordance with law, nothing said about dividing property. Milwaukee has only had one bank failure. A little one. Quees what happened. The banker was tried, 'convicted and will be sentenced next Thursday. It was shown that he allowed depositors to put money in the bank when he knew It was Insol vent. Telephone rates have been slashed by the Wisconsin public service com mission twelve and one-half percent in one hundred and two towns snd vlllases. That means a cut of ,1,500,000 In the annual amount paid by subscribers. i That applies to local oliarges only, th. commission having no authority on calls outside the state. The spirit of ths late Robert taPollette was not buried when he died. His sons axe working as he worked. Returning from Milwaukee 85 miles an hour, on wide concrete roads, you see the house In which Samuel Insull lived, many acres, gigantic barns, and farms. Roses grow thick along his fences. In a big enclosure a herd of Japanese white deer graze and browse. The roses will continue to grow, In spite of Insult's departure after the loss of his hundred mil lion dollars. But the deer will not continue to eat. Somebody will eat them. Who would believe that the trouble of a publlo utility would con trol the destiny of white deer? You pass through a village on the outskirts of big Chicago called "Half Day" because In old days, of the horse and buggy, It took half a day to get there from Chicago. It doesn't take long to get from Half Day now to this hall where more than one thou sand men and women, representing 12,000,000 human beings, are trying to select a man to cure whatever Is the matter with the country. And the pathetic thing Is that no body knows what THE MATTER, is. not the 123,000.000 that bear the brunt, not the delegates that will select the doctor, not the political White House doctor whoever he may be, that destiny will select. This Is an Important p. s. It Is half past nine by the convention. McAdoo Is on the platform and will Boon cast California's vote for Roose velt. Mayor Cermak of Chicago, will vote Illinois and Indiana for Roose velt. That settles It and Roosevelt t your Democratic nominee. HOOV ER OR ROOSEVELT, TAKE YOUR CHOICE. Cause For Jealousy (By Alice Judson Peale) Sister'tt birthday had Just passed and her gift had been & fitted bag. There had been a party and Bryce, three years her Junior, had been Included In the festivities. ( A few days later he" sat down beside his mother in the living room and busied himself about nothing in particular. "That was a nice bag you gave sister," he said. "Yes, wasn't it. It's Just what she needed." "It must have been awfully ex pensive. How much was it, mother?" She named the price and at once realized her mistake, for Bryce cried out, "Why, mother, that must be four times as much as you paid for my birthday present. You always did like sister much better than me, but that's Just plain unfair I" Such an exhibition of raw envy Is not pretty but under certain circumstances it is entirely natural. This boy's violent reaction to his sister's fine gift was the result of a deep-lying Jealousy. He knew quite clearly that his mother had alwaya loved his sister better than she had loved him. The matter of the birthday gift simply offered a concrete Instance. In this light his rage Is wholly understandable and the occasion, as his mother guiltily realized, was not one for a lecture on the wrongness of envy but for such reassurance of affection as she was able to give. In such Instances it is the parent, rather than the child, who must seek to mend .his ways. Scrupulous fairness about all fav ors, an effort to develop a greater sympathy and understanding for the less-loved child should be the goals for which the parent should strive in the future. (V i.
