M (TJP) The atate senate baa pasaed a aaJary alaahlng bill only to find that the bill ralaed many salaries-(Press Dispatch.) How like a legislature, when trying to think. Something ahould be dona, and right anapptly to halt tha ravagea of Economy In this county. In ap proximately a month, the body politic baa been amacked twice In the ex chequer onoe to the tune of 132,000 of federal funds, and onoa for a mod eat $35,000, from the aame source Thla is aufflclent Jack to keep ser ' oral oltlsens needing work on the bualneaa ends of picks, for quite some time. The alleged economy walked arm-in-arm with Efficiency, and the couple were the cause of considerable enthustaetlo hurrahing, none of which la now audible to the naked ear. They also oaused a great nunv bar of apeechea. Nobody recalls a alngle word of the orations on tax alaahlng, except the starting remark of "Ladles and Gentlemen, and Mr Chairman." It will be a long time before another dose of economy Is awtgged recklessly. It la no trouble to prove that the county failed to get the cash, and that It la now too late to annul the self-inflicted di vorce. The only result la that Windi ngs scored a victory over Common- sense. Thla la the last week Maws can spank their little dears, before turn' lng the task over to the school- ma'ams. The Eada Boys moved a aafe from the courthouse Saturday and had no audience at all, due to the De pression, and the fear that bystand are would have to help pull on the rope. The Messrs. Eada were con fronted with the problem of getting an overgrown aafe through a window that waa too wide one day and not Jong enough the other. The reosp- tacle waa aa awkward to handle oa a fork-load of apaghettl, but even tually mind won over matter. It waa tha first safe ever battled In Jackson county before an empty grandstand. It waa In vldld contrast to the time the ateam-ahovel operated on the Sixth street crossing. The engineer waa a nervoua wreck from trying to scoop up dirt Instead of byetenders.

That crasy man who shot the Archduke In Serbia 18 years ago did the world a bad turn. But perhapa the world wu In pretty bad an ape or one little bullet wouldn't hare don such a vast amount of damage. The war came perhapa because the world waa festering In greed and pride and arrogance) of nationalism. Then the miserable peace came be cause the war didn't help thlnra much; because the war left the world atlll greedy and proud, atlll arrogant In lta nationalism. Tariff barriers went up and world trade and produc tion were blocked and the economics of civilization got a cramp that turn ed Into paraJyala. I imaaa Ring Down the Curtain AND now F. A. Bat, gtormy petrel of the Footi Creek min ing district, bag decided he would rather leave the county than face the charge pending against him in court. Perhaps the decision has been influenced by big stage manager, L. A. Banks. Bargaining by M. 0. Wilkins, Bates' attorney, for dismissal of the case, would be laughable were it not for underlying facta and motives, and the expense already .caused the taxpayers of the county. Last spring, a charge against Bates was dismissed in the justice court at Gold Hill upon request of his attorneyg and relatives, with the understanding that the accused would leave the county and refrain from creating further turmoil in the Foots Creek region where his neighbors claimed he 'had accused them of everything from sluice box robbery to dam dynamiting, varying his activities by writing a series of threatening letters. Bates' proclivity for trouble-making gained new impetus when the publisher of the Daily News heard the "Foot Creek Miner's Tale of Woe," and apparently with but slight investiga tion, or substantiation, proceded to make a martyr of Bates, cit ing his case as a "breakdown of law and order 1", "an attempt to rob an aged man of his property!", ete., etc., and a political issue. The initial blast in the battle for Bates wag quickly followed by a retraction but the elderly miner and his alleged woes fitted in so well with political plans that were being initiated, that the case was revived from time to time editorially. Finally convinc ing himself that he had thoroly cowed the courts, and that it was time for the grand climax wherein Banka could pose with strong arm extended to shield the downtrodden, the publisher heralded to the world that Bates would return and face an indictment found by the last grand jury. Hearing of the case against Bates drew near, likewise elec tion day. Banks bore down heavily on the martyrdom of the miner, getting in many a good lick for himself as the champion of the oppressed, hurling challenge after challenge in the teeth of "the gang," and bringing out as he had long intended to do M. O. Wilkins, as independent candidate for district attor ney. Wilkins was to ride Into office on the wave of popular recog nition which it was fondly believed would follow the defense of Bates when the case was tried. The stage was set" the parts were duly assigned Bates, the suffering sacrifice in gangdom's den of lions, and Wilkins, a Daniel I the fearless defender before the publio gaze for weeks, meantime the News keeping up a constant ballyhoo of "breakdown of law and order!", "Jackson county will be shaken to its foundations!" It was, in the parlance of the ring, a push-over. But something slipped I Resentment in the Foots Creek district against the Bank- sonian ballyhoo boiled over, and within the spaoe of a week the Daily News and its editor, Bates the miner, and his daughter were named as co-defendants in libel suits aggregating $200,000, brought by four men of the district. And to cap the olimax, aocording to the Daily News' own statements', it was rumored that Bates had again taken pen in hand to add to the already large collection of his letters, which it is feared may be produced in court. No wonder Mr. Banks would ring down the curtain on his show and whisk the sawdust martyr from the publio 's eye. The Daily News publisher has a perfect right to be "regusted." E. C. F. - " Little Orphan Annie Recall rT,HE recall move against Judge Norton, like Topsy of Undo Tom'i Cabin, never was born, it "just growed up," ao cording to its chief advocates, who are pardonably bashful about acknowledging parenthood. However, the long-suffering citizens of this community have a fairly unanimous and definite idea that the "little orphan Annie" recall, was fathered by Earl H. Fehl and surreptitiously dumped on the doorstep of the Daily News, much against the wishes of the newspaper's owner. It is also generally believed that Fehl not only deposited the waif on the Banksonian sill, but through some pressure, not yet explained, eventually "made him like it." If this hypothesis is correct, it reveals an adroit maneuver on the part of Earl in his effort to rebuke Judge Norton for daring to permit a verdict against him, Fehl fathering a child ef the left hand in the nature of a recall, while Banks takes the "little orphan Annie" to his bosom, clothes it in such respectability as he is able to muster and with the hint of a primace of distaste, murmuring ''me too." E. C. F. . An Open Letter To Will Rogers The Parable of tha Humorist Who Tripped the Burdened Man. Dear Mr. Rogera: I have been a reader of your dally articles for a long time. I believe you are one of the beat-loved men on the American continent. I have never known of any on having a alngle unfriendly thought chalked up against you. With that in mind, I am going to revamp for you an old atoryi There waa a man whoa back waa bent beneath a heavy burden. Re had carried It far. Often It seemed that ha could no longer go en. But, somehow, unsuspected reeerves o! fortitude always rose sufficient to hla need. So he kept bearing on toward hla goal. Aa he tottered along a busy thor oughfare an onlooker, with a aenas of humor, thought to furnish a laugh to the paseertby. So he expertly trip ped the load bearer, burling him to the ground. "What man.'' do you ask, "would do a thing Ilk that?" Unhappily you, Mr. Roger, are that man. How do t know? Because I am the man you tripped as are all thorn other Americana who ar trying to "carry on" against the odds that our country Is facing today. We are summoning every scrap of Xalr-mlndtrlnaaa, every ouoe ef he roic endeavor In ourselves sad our neighbors. W ar building our faith on those force of rlghteouanesa that have made our country noble aa well aa great. The way Is long, the load heavy. Beneath It many of ue have gone down to our knee. But we're trying to pros on. I admit that a laugh U good medi cine for ua. And you have served ue well In that way. But when you use your rare gift to ridicule an American president whoa trlala ar great aa wer Lincoln's I believe you are going too far. You ridiculed Hoover's acceptance speech. I won der would you have ridiculed Lln coin groat Inaugural address? Would you have mocked the Gettysburg speech. Technically, as a humorlat, you would have been within your right to do so. But this Is a time when all of us must sacrifice something Just aa In military war. Wont you sacrifice your technical privilege of launching Jab against what you know J heroic and true? Wont you aacrltlc tripping us whose back ar bent beneath the load, even though our fall might look funny? Wont you. Mr. Rogers, let that be your service to America in It hour of trial? LEON C.

The campaign, in which a great, free and mighty people will wind up their government machine and set it going for four years more, is under way. It gains momentum slowly, like a long freight train, start ing its cars one at a time, each with its separate jolt. There are notifications and speeches, in which full grown men sol emnly criticize and blame oth ers. There are separate little machines, each with its ticket, socialist, prohibition, labor, meaning only protest. The active powers announce that our troubles are practical ly overcome, just a little pa tient co-operation and all will be well. The ten millions idle feel less optimistic,- and a good deal depends on haw many of them are put to work before November conies round. Candidates of various colors appear at meetings, flanked on either side by officials of heroic organizations of former soldiers. They ara well organ ized, and when they say they want something, many candidates say "Amen." Perhapa If the ten millions Idle knew how to organize themselves, or Interest candidates, there would be fewer unemployed. In other countries, ten millions would not be so easily managed. But ours, a the 1st Lord Korthcllff re marked, la "a docile people." Mexico has Jobless problem, and a hunger problem. Thousands march ing on Mexico City were stopped by soldiers, when their rulers became convinced that communism guided them. But Mexico's problem 1 simple. compared with ours. The government offer it own land to the hungry Idle, aaylng "Rats corn, foed your selves." Mexican worker, given land, can take car of themselves aa their Indian ancestors did before them. Our workers, from factories, type writers, railroads, banks, hve grown too far away from the land. Only a pay roll onn take care of them. Kaxu Mori, distinguished Japanese, haa "back to Asia" plan, and aays Japan must be self-sufficient, work out her destiny In Isolation, refuse League of Nations interference. Re aays, also, Keaven know why, Japan anttolpatea trouble with the United States. Thla country la not dictating her course to Japan. Meddlesome officials that talk about Shanghai and Man churla do not represent the American PEOPLE. Japan needs land, for her aurplua million, can cultivate It well, and protect It Inhabitant. That does not concern us, unless Japan tries to take some of our land. If, Japan can sell many aquare rrtllea of territory and thirty million population from China, In Manchuria that doea not oonoarn ua. We looked on, and even cheered, while our asso ciates, the allies wer stealing colo nies and billion from Germany, set ting up silly new nation and wiping out the Aeatro-Hungarlan empire. why should w protest If 0. 000,000 Japanese ar able to take land from 400.000,000 Chinese? That will straighten Itself out later, without This nation, or 'at least ninety per Interference from us. cent of It, think a little a doea Japan, of the League of Nations.

Ad drs Dr. William Brady In car of Tb Mall Tribune WHEN NEURALGIA M AKES A NOISE LIKE v APPEND ICITIS. ' In a paper read before the Buffalo Academy of Medicine, Dr. John B. Carnett, professor of surgery In the medical school aald: "In patient referred to me for chronic ap p e n d I o I tls I find the pain and tenderness in the lower right abdoml n a 1 quadrant are due to neu ralgia In SS per cent of the patients and In the other 3 per cent I find a duode nal ulcer, stone in the kidney or some similar lesion. I, therefore, have given up operations for chronic appendlcltl and cure the lower rlght-slded pains by non-operative measures directed toward the underlying spinal nerve lesion causing the neural gia. Of the patients sent to me for a hurry up operation for acute appendicitis I find In over half of them that the trouble I neural gic a:nd do not operate." It seems that the diagnosis of "chronic appendicitis" is losing vogue. It always has seemed rather a gam ble In which our modern brass sur geons have too eagerly Indulged. A further observation by the aame authority 1 worthy of broadcasting: "The acute toxemia of tonsilli tis, cold or other Infection Is responsible dlpjctly for fever, pulae hurry, and leucocytosls, and Indirectly Its Induced acute neu ralgia causes lower right abdomi nal pain and tenderness with vomiting. The symptoms enu merated constitute the uaual text book picture of acute appendi citis and they are due to acute neuralgia of the abdominal wall can only be determined by ap plying the teat for neuralgia. In any doubtful case I anesthetize the right eleventh and twelfth Intercostal and first lumbar nerves with novocalne Injections to elim inate parietal hyperesthesia and thereby am enabled to recognize the presence or absence of any associated aubparletal or true ap pendiceal tenderness." We need not attempt to interpret the scandalous medlcalese In this The lay reader will get the gist of It, namely, that intercostal neuralgia due to tonsillitis may make a noise so like appendicitis that a hurry up opera tion may be perpetratea mere Hap pens to be a bras surgeon at hand. great conqueror of future ages would be "an epileptic cheas player, carried about the field df battle on an air cushion." That Is feeble prediction. In a few centurie at most, there will be no more field of battle or great gen erals, and probably no more epilepsy, In much less time. Science progresses more rapidly than human decency. Machines will make our muscles unnecessary, th brain alone will be Important. You may find yourself, In your reincarnation of the year ten million, a brain propelled by It own flying machine with rudimentary handa and feet, attending to Its Im portant business a a butterfly does, flitting from place to place, pushing buttons. 4-4 The female of our species may be compelled to preserve size and weight, for maternity reason, In which case, she may fly about, carrying har little thinking husband, a she now carries her reticule, or aa the hug parasite crab, described by Darwin, carries under her left flipper, her tiny hus band, as small as a ten cent piece. The crab husband was one a fine, powerful, upstanding crab. Evolu tion nude him what he Is, and, ac cording to aclentlsts, mere 1 no knowing what evolution may do to us. It has million of year In which to work upon ua, and haa barely started. Ten million years hence, we may llv on thla earth, never touch ing It with our feet.

Intercostal neuralgia may closely resemble the pain of gallstone colic. Dr. Carnett declares that the pain In the region of the right shoulder blsde. regarded the world over a In dicative of gall-bladder Inflamma tion, ,1a always due to lntercoatal neuralgia In hla experience. He de clares that too many gall bladders are being unnecessarily removed In the futile expectation of curing pain and tenderness which Is actually due to neuralgia In the abdominal wall. Right here I dare auggest that a physician whose education, training and practice are not limited to the tenet of a single "system" or "school" Is better qualified to deal with such conditions than Is tha narrow little fellow who purport to practice only this or that "pathy." Beware of the chap who accept the designation of a "pathlst" of any kind. Intercostal neuralgia has led to many unnecessary kidney operations, and to countless operations on women who too readily believe the pain origi nates in tubes or ovaries. In the hand of charlatans who run Irrigation plant or colon filling stations a great many gullible vlctlmc of lntercoatal neuralgia are subjected to endless and vicious "treatment" for a colitis which doea not exist, further than the mechanical Irritation set up by the vicious "treatment." This Is one of the new self-perpetuating lines of business in which the victims seem to like being humbugged and to re sent being enlightened. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Dtih Washing.

When mountain streams have dwin dled down, And peaks hsve lost their snowy crown: When brown are turning forest cones. And reptiles slumber on the stones; When Tokay grapes begin to cure. And black and huckleberries lure: When trout disdain your tempting fly, I know that summer's slipping by. When lark and robin cease their song, And grouse and partridge part with throng; When quail and pheasant cease to pair. Woodpeckers listless cleave the air; When squirrels chatter as they forage, And bees accumulate their storage; When butterflies begin to die, I know that summer's slipping by. When picnic lure begins to pall, And swimming holes no lqnger call; When autos get to look forlorn, Cm bright and early Sunday morn; When folks loll lazy on the lawn, And there's less sctivlty at dawn; When people from the lawnmowers shy, I know that summer's slipping by. When mother seals the last Jar lid.
