There la some talk of establishing the commission form of government here, which mesns that the excess city hells will have to be torn down and a commission house erected on the spot. The councllmen would be awapped for commissioners. There should bs enoueh commissioners, so everybody who feels like running for something, could have his lust and Itch for office eatlsfted. In any event, the dearth of anything to fight about will be removed. Maps have been drawn, ahowlng how the new ayatem will work. If It works. They are Just as stupefying as the maps showing the effect that the tariff on goose frees haa on chlpmunka. The nubbin of the whole plan la the City Manager. One would have to he appointed. Thla burg haa 16 or IS city mansgera to the block. They not alone claim the ability to manage the city, but frequently take hand In straightening out the na tion, and the lands beyond the seas. Of course. If duly named city mana ger, he would confine his efforts to the corporate limits, only, except when the president or Mussolini sent a per sons letter asking for a little help. And, this mucja should be under stood. The City Msnsger will not be allowed to go away to a City Manager school, the day after he Is Inaugu rated, tf that la what they do to them. Portland has some sort of a com mission form of government, as every so often the headlines screech: "COM MISSIONER INDICTED POR STEAL ING MAYOR'S WOODSHED." tt Is doubtful If the civic battling would be Improved a bit by throwing the councllmen Into Bear creek. Broken windows glazed by Trow, bridge Cabinet Works, Editorial Correspondence ROCKFORD, 111., Am,'. 17. The New York Herald-Tribune is printing a complete steno graphic rerort of the Mayor Walker hearing, covering several full pages in each issue. Too bad the people of the country couldn't read this de tailed transcript. The large press services are obliged to be impartial and draw no conclu sions in their condensed wire reports. But those who read the full reports, have conclu sions forced upon them. Conclusion No. 1: Jimmy Walker is both a grafter and a four-flusher. Conclusion No. 2: Governor Roosevelt is handling this investigation, very capably and very fairly. The present writer is convinced Governor Roosevelt-will remove Mayor Walker, probably before elec tion, and by doing so will gain more votes than he will lose. For after all, the people of this country are fundamentally honest' and fair, and this re fers to the people of New Tork state. True the Broadway touts and Tammany hoelers are all for Jimmy he is cheered and showered with roses where- over he goes, but they don't represent ALL the people of New York state, nor all the people of New York city nor for that matter all the members of Tammany Hall for there are some very fine citizens in that organization, as opp to vice and corruption as In vestigator Seabury himself. . Governor Roosevelt is an in telligent man. He realizes all this. ' It is inconceivable to us, in view of the evidence, that the democratic nominee, will be influenced by either the Tam many shyster lawyers, or the professional politicians and re fuse to throw the unsavory Jimmy out on his ear, where he belongs. And for such action Governor Roosevelt, regardless of prirty, will deserve all praise Which leads us naturally to an opinion expressed in this column ' several month's ago, Wijh President Hoover on one ticket and Governor Roosevelt on the other, this oountry is not going to the demnition bow wows no matter who is elected. For many reasons, which we regard as important ones our preference is for President Hoover and a continuation of the policies and organization he has perfected. But if Boose velt should win, the present writer is not going to lose- any sleep over it. He isn't in any sense a "big man", but he is an honest one, and assuming his health will hold out, he would undoubtedly, keep Uncle Sam from committing jany dis astrous follies during the next four years. Passed through FreeporJ; the other day. This place is famous for two things : The Lincoln-Douglas debate in the late 50's, in which Abraham Lincoln won first place. And the running of the High School intercity field day meet in the late OO's in which Robt W. Rulil. R. 11. S.

Freeport has some of th most attractive home gardens we have ever seen didn't no tice things of that sort on our last visit 34 years ago. On th outskirts there is a very large children's home, and near it model farm, owned and con ducted by a certain Patent Medicine king. Hera one may buy pure milk snd fresh cuts of pork or porterhouse, at WHOLESALE TRICES. Thus the money wasted for patent medicine returns v i e a r i o u benefit to the populace, who wasted it. During the past few weeks two prominent Rockfod resi dents have died and for the same reason. One a former mayor and well known politic ian in the state; the other the leading woman politician of Winnebago county, president of the women's club, a very capable and charming person. They were approximately the same age, in the prime of life, with devoted families and countless friends. s The cause APPENDICITIS! In neither case had the appen dix ruptured, in both cases peritonitis set in and caused death within a week. Something wrong here and unless we are greatly mistaken something wrong ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. There are far too many fa talities in this socalled minor operation of appendectome. The various medical associa tions in our opinion, should conduct a research and find out what is the matter. Either there are too many incompe tent surgeons, or the accepted surgical technique needs re vamping. It is only 90 in the shade to day, and 590 in humidity 1 "Be it ever so humble" , . .1 "'.'" R.

Could anything be more typically American than the good old square dances that enlivened the cablna in the pioneer days when this country was being won from the wilderness?

' AND what is dignity, anyway? la at all coats if one It to amount to anything.

The -ittle Brown Church. Bonfils Says It's Hoover. Copyright King Features Synd., Inc. OMAHA,, Neb., Aug. 23. Rather warm on these fertile Nebraska plain, today, but the human organism, with its mar velous thermostatic arrange ments, maintaining the same blood temperature on the equa tor and in the Arctic, adjusts itself to heat or cold. The dining car of this Union Pacifio train, artificially refrig erated is almost as cold as one of the "chilling rooms" in Chi cago's packing houses. Ten thousand centuries ago men lesrned to control fire, to warm themselves and cook their food. They worshipped fire. Incorporated It In their religions. It plays a part In some ot them today. Now men learn to cool themselves with electricity as they warmed themselves a million years ago, with burning logs. It would surprise our savage an cestors of the caves that shuddered when they saw the 'lightning, to know that their descendants use the lightning now to cool a dining car and keep meat from decaying. For Information about cooling machin ery, ask Mr. Woolley of the American Radiator Company, Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., of General Motors,' or Oerard Swope, of the General Electric Com pany. Professor Sweeney of Iowa. State College tells chemists assembled In Denver that science may turn out to be a Frankenstein monster. "Na tions fall when population becomes too crowded In a small area," aays the professor. And, says he, feeding and clothing congested population is a problem. Modern production could feed ten times as many people as tAere are on earth. The atate of Texas Intensively cultivated would feed th earth's pop ulation, clothe and house them and that entire population, by the way, could atand at one time on Staten Island In New Tork harbor. The flying machine, taking men from their work to the distant hill top residences, will soon settle the crowd ing problem. The old fashioned woman, with old fashioned good taste, Is not extinct. The Omaha Bee-News, intelligent newspaper which prlnta this column, says that when 1886 women of Ne braska were asked to name their fa vorite song, their first choice was "The Little Brown Church in the Vale," second choice waa "When .You and I Were Young. Maggie"; third choice, "Carry Me Back to Old Vir ginia." Reno would be surprised to know how many husbands and wives with white hair sing "When You and I Were Young. Maggie." with no thought of changing partners. Frederick O. Bonfils, owner of the Denver Poet, another Intelligent naws- psper that prints this column, tele grape this: "In my opinion it's a cinch for Hoover." And backs his opinion wltii reasons. Colonel Bon fils, who never speculates, and does not need to, since he owns one of the most profitable newspapers In America, attaches perhaps too much Importance to recent signs, of life In Wall Street, Even those convinced that the election of President Hoover would I be the best thins for the eountrv. can hardly expect ten million idle men, and their twenty million vot ing wives, slstere, aunts and daugh ters to feel cheerful merely because certain stocks, that thsy don't own. ftave gone up In price. Business men who want to re-elect President Hoover would better put five million men to work and let stocks stay where they are. rather than leave the ten million Idle and put stocks up. Scientists of Johns-Hopkins Uni versity, aided by other scientists from General Motor laboratory, In Denver, show a working model ot a molecule of "chloro-benxlne."

LEMONS AND S An osteopath contributes th fol- lowing Interesting report: For year I was unable to eat strawberries on account of de veloping a se vere oxalurla. Th troubl oazn only in the sum mer time during the strawberry season. Sev eral years ago I learned that by taking lem on Juice I could eat all the straw berries I wished without any trouble. The theory Is that the acid of the citrus fruit combines with the calcium to prevent the for mation of calcium oxalate crya tals. It Is said the citrates throw calcium out of action by forming a solubl double salt. Whether the chemistry Is right I don't know, but I do know that some of my patients ss well aa myself now eat all the atraw berrlea we wish without suffer ing unplessant effecta, almply by taking our lemonade with the same meal. It Is a delightful beverage on a hot summer day. This is not an original concep tion of mine. I read It In an old book, "Physiology Principles," by W. L. Brown (Wm. Wood & Co.,) which Z have had for many years. I submit this In the hope that It. may benefit some of your many readers. (Signed with the doctor's name.) Here la one oolleague who believes in oxalurla. I am not prepared to assert, In my usual arbitrary way, that there Is such thing, but at best oxalurla Is an obscure condition If not wholly hypo thetical. By oxalurla the doctors mean the presence of crystals of cslclum oxa late In the urine. Normally the ox alic acid content of. the urine Is small, less than one-halt grain a day. There may be 10 times as much ox alic as that In one good helping of splnsoh, asparagus, rhubarb, or even strawberries. But most of us can take care of that and more oxalic without any trouble. If certain Indi viduals experience trouble from eat ing such foods, it Is natural to Infer that the trouble la from oxalic, but this has not been proved, so far as I can learn, by the simple experi ment of administering to such a sen sitive individual' the grain or two of calcium oxalate without his knowl ence hunt creatures too small to be seen, that, cause our diseases. Hitherto Industry has occupied it self with gigantic machinery, loco motives, dynamos, turbines. As the release of power in the atom approaches, we may change to study ing the infra-mlcroscoplo machinery of the molecule and atom. Thirty years ago Nikola Testa, sit ting In the old Detmonlco restaurant at 26th street and Fifth avenue. New York, held a wine glass In his hand aaylng, "If I could release the power locked up In the atoms of this glass, I would have energy enough to run a locomotive many times around the earth." What Imagination told Tesla, sci ence la proving. Practical use of atomic energy Is doubtless far away. When It comes it will revolutionize human society. A few words concerning Zabala, amazing 19-year-old Argentine win ner of the marathon. W,hen he finished his run of more than 38 miles, beating the world's picked runners,' reporters described him "staggering across the line ex hausted." Exhaustion had nothing to do with it. When the race was over. Zabala said to W. G. Clark of Los Angeles: "Wnen ly ssw that I was winning that race such a wave of emotion swept over me that I could hardly run, and actually staggered." Emo tion Is more powerful than fatigue. When Newton .had nearly finished calculations that were to verify and establish for all time his formula of the law of gravitation, and perceived that the calculatlona were coming out aa he hoped, he was too much agi tated to continue, and called an as sistant to finish th calculations for him.

One sufferer in whose ease 1 was interested hsd repeated attacks which were diagnosed as oxalurla, though with unsstisfsctory urfnalytlq find ings to support the diagnosis. For year or two, the patient carefully eschewed all foods which contain much oxalic rsdlcle. But the at tacks recurred and grew worse, and finally a correct diagnosis was made colon bacillus Infection of the kid ney pelvis (pyelitis), and not only did this clear up when an auto genous bacterln was administered, but the patient resumed eating the foods which contain oxalld radicle and noticed no unpleasant conse quence. However, I am glad to have the doctor's experience and to offer bis suggestion to our readers. At any rate it can do no one any harm to take a glass of lemonade along with any food which purports to contain oxalic. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS We Can't Help Faulting. Is It cowardly to faint over the fact that you have a alster terribly 1U In the hospital, or when you get news that some one has had a bad accident? Is It cowardice that makes women faint, or Is It some peculiar physical reaction different from men? a. 8. Answer Cowardice or courage has nothing to do with falntness or faint ing.- I don't know why women are more likely to faint then men or whether they are. I dont even know why anybody faints we can only speculate about the nature of such reaction. Diathermy Pleased. Followed your advice and had my tonsils removed by diathermy. I am so well pleased I want to pass this on to others. I don't think I would have mustered the courage to have them cut out, yet I suppose I would have ben compelled to submit to it tt there were no alternative, as my tonsils were affecting my hearing. am grateful for your kind advice. Mrs. L. M. 8. Answer The diathermy method Is now well established as an alterna tive for the major operation in most esses, and particularly In cases where the major operation Is too great a risk. The peerwees of the medical profession, the bras sspeciallsts and the old fogies, have ceased their' ef forts to prevent thla method from coming into the popularity It de serves.

Mr. Ruhl relstes an encounter he had with an ex-pump manufacturer who had been forced out of that business In the city sad hsd to flee Into the coun try and take refuse jun a farm, with out the possibility of a doubt, in must have eaten some kind of pois onous weed which caused him to go nog wild. VVe were in hopes Bro. O. C. Hoover would accept the challenge offered him and rear up on his farmer dig nity and peck the gentleman'a artru- ment tuU ot holes. Since he haa not I don ao I wish to speak In defense of the fellows that are of th dust of th earth. This pump manufacturer claims the average farm to be a paying proposi tion from 'all polnta of the compass, providing on adheres to the prin ciple of work end good Judgment. We admit there are a few case where farmers hsve msde a good showing, but It will be found some peculiarity is more responsible then anything else, and Is theexcept!on rather than th rule. For Instance, It the w.fe Is capable of generating a little more horsepower than the average, thereby being able to swing a grubbing hoe for six or eight hours a day. besides doing the housework, or milk 15 to 30 cows dally, adding 1.000 or so to the bank account, which would otherwise go for help, that might mean th difference between eucceie and fallur. Then, too, equipment . count for considerable. Our opponent has al theee which he has paid for out of another business that really produced money. I don't think the best far mer's wife that ever looked through a collar would make much of a show ing in the hay field after rubbing out the family laundry on a wash board. If th farmer has all the labor-saving conveniences he should have you can gamble he also hss a mortgsge so Isrge It would choke hl most ravenous mule. Consult ;he statistics on farm In debtedness snd you will no doubt be surprised. But do not blsme farmers too severely. They are human enough to crave the things of life that civil ized people have. Besides, the money lending Industry Is one of the cor nerstones of our system. The farmer should come In for hi ahare of praise for keeping this noble Institution thriving. No business man would admit, ex tent for DroDssanda purposes, that a business that wlU not pay wages, r - - - r " running expenses and interest on the capitalization, la very sound. Yet our city farmer admit as much when he said he might not have been able to make It If he had had a mortgage on which to pay Interest. No, Mr. Man-Up-a-Tree. don't awal- Iow all the dope you read in the cap italist press, without at least a grain of salt. We like the outdoor life and the diversified work. Why else do you suppose we continue to labor 16 hours for the wage one should re ceive for eight? If It were not tor this we fear our country would soon be '"sold abort" on foodstuff. The average farmer who doesn't compel the hired man to do his thinking slong with the other chores, will re quire more than autosuggestion to be convinced that he has his pockets full of money.

Forty-three licensee were Issued Monday. Most of the permits are Issued to rural residents. Wagea for orchard work coming m have caused purchases of plates. Deputy Anderson says that the rate of 35 per day Is "good," In view of the fact that it Is lesa than a month before applications for three quarter year licenses can be made. iY.
