Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry NOW ANSWER ME I Dear Readers: It must be all of 00 days and nights since your Intellect was renovated, so you ought to be able to answer the lollowlng questions, without thinking, as that Is the way they are asked: Your Uncls Sam threatens to spend $85,000 for a junior postofflce here. Could not this sum be spent to a better advantage by building an ad dition to the poorfarm, as many pre dict they will be there, before they know It? Would you be awe to neat , a transient Indigent to the addition K It was built? ' Please explain why 'nothing seems to bring out the Industrlousness and other saintly virtues of a gent like having the Jail doors clang unexpect edly behind him? ' a Do you Pagan Take It? . If you have a man In high school, and you start him out the first se mester in a pair of yellow corduroy pants, how long does It take before they look like a threshing orew had used them for a towel? Still discussing the corduroy pants, do they make the wearer look ool- laatctA? Tf Vml Wftm A OO-fld In S chiffon dress, would you care to do any lap-suungf Do you look for an epldemlo of can. dldates In the fall? If you saw President Hoover riding a horse in the news reel, are you still for him? . . How did your last batch of home brew turn out? Is It beer, or Is it bread, you will vote for In November? Or, do you figure It would be better to eat the ballot arid lose your vote? . An you one of those who elgn any thing once, and twice, If the namea are not coming fast enough? If you are American-born, you prob ably know definitely that the Russian form of government la the best, so there Is no use asking that question. Does It make you mad to finally catch the auo tramps who have been raiding your garden, and find out It 1s the fellow down the road, who went to the ocean an the Sunday you spaded your garden? m How do you feel about de-hornlng the bull that gored you so artlstlcslly In the spring? Have you rolsed anything this year, besides Hell? Have you ever been able to find anything Right In this world? Would It not be nice If everything was as perfect as the latest gasoline? What has become of the farmers and- orchardlsts, who used to flit about In army puttees? Tou have heard a lot about the disgruntled cltlsens. Have you ever seen a herd of gruntled citizens? . What makes the mean temperature, meaner than the District Attorney? . Do you believe boasting of great faith In the Bible la a sign of a new outbreak of political cuasednef Now this Is all the questions. Tou don't have to answer them, but you better If you know what Is good for you. It don't take long to hatch a conspiracy and "sic" It on the evil doers. "Use of Money Upheld": Bpeclel Scored" (Port Orford Tribune) Just when does the using end, and the spending begin? Peace Meet In War Hs.lt. VHCNNA mv-The Austrian na tional council decided to place 'the great marble hall In the parliament building, th. former plenary hall m Imperial days, to the disposal of the Wjrld Peace congress in September.

Dance, Lake Creek Orange hall, Saturday sight, Butte rJls orchestra, Editorial Correspondence DENVER, Colo., Sept. 4.- Denver has three of the best public buildings and two of the worst newspapers in the Unit ed States. The public buildings have just the qualities the newspa. pers lack, beauty, dignity, in tegrity, The Denver civlo center, the federal building, the Greek theatre are a delight to the eye, they stimulate the mind and elevate the soul ; the two news papers do just the reverse. Why this should be so we don't know, and haven't time to find out. But it is certainly true. Newspapers and public build ings should reflect the popular demand, but whereas the Dea ver public buildings are in the best of taste j the newspapers with their sensational head lines, dauby make-up, and cheap appeals (this is particu larly true of the Bonfils publi cations) are in the worst. Per haps the answer is Denver has excellent architects but no ex cellent editors. However if there is any particular dissatis faction with the newspapers, we were unable, in our brief stay, to 'discover it. Denver has changed greatly since our last visit, nearly 25 years ago, and all for the bet ter. Then it impressed us as a sort of overgrown village, the Brown Palace hotel being the only impressive structure, with a few pretentious mansions of rich ' mining men scattered about. Now it is a real metro politan city, with marvellous school buildings, colleges, a beautiful park system, with golf clubs, polo fields, and scores of attractive country places. Because Denyer has little manufacturing, our guide informs us, the oity has not felt the depression very disaster- ously as yet. Publio finances are in relatively such good shape, that the application for federal relief, and R. P. C. aid, will probably not be granted. Aftor talking with one lawyer, one business man, and a news paper man the latter two on the train loaving-the city, we conclude Colorado will go democratic this fall. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5. Arrived here on time after a very cool trip from Denver. So cool in Wyoming, that the Pull man porter distributed extra blankets the first 'night but thoy were not needed in Ne vada the second. Passed thru Las Vegas, the wide open town, we visited a couple of years ago, when the Hoover dam had not been started, and every thing was on a boom basis, with real estate offices every few feet, and subdivisions plotted out in the desert. A Los Angeles man on the train, who has often visited the town, declares the Hoover dam boom instead of helping Las Vegas has injured it. The government built its own town near the dam site, and because Las Vegas refused to close up its saloons and gambling dens, the contractors refused to al low workers to visit the place, dismissing those who disre garded the order. As a result there is a feud between tho town and the government con tractors, with the latter get ting all the best of it. Needless to say Las Vegas will also be in the Roosevelt column next fall. The Los Angeles Times has a new slant on the Mayor AValker resignation. It maintains the resignation was all part of a frame-up between Walker and Roosevelt. The resign a t i o n saved Walker's fuce, gave him a chance to stage a political comeback; and it allowed Roosevelt to appear as an anti Tammany crusader out in the sticks, and a friend of the tiger, in Greater New York. We wouldn't put such a deal beyond Roosevelt, then is no doubt whatever he has played in with Tammany as governor of New Tork, but we fail to see how Jimmy Walker would be party to such a deal, for the simple reason he couldn't pos sibly get any political benefit from it. He could resign at any time, without any sanction from Roosevelt, and that resig nation, in the country at large, can't fail but establish his guilt. No, such an explanation is too full of holes. Such a deal would have Jeft Jimmy out on a limb; and stigmatised Roose velt, to the world at least Jimmy's world as dishonest and unfair. There is po logic or sense in such, an arrange ment. Now for that Walker lesson which we failed to finish in our last letter. How is it that a self confess ed corruptionist like Walker, could expected to be re-elected to the office he disgraced, by the people he robbed I Here is the answer,, Tam many is the most efficiently or ganized and cleverly conducted political machine in the world today. It is essentially a busi ness organization conducted for profit, not only profit to the big bosses, but to the littlo ones, from the big chief himself down to the most humble pre cinct committeeman. This or ganization hot only is on the job during the campaign but every day in the year. And it holds the votes of the people the masses ty doing things for them little things it is true, but little things that count. If a voter is ill, the Tammany committeeman looks after him; if he wants a job, the committeeman tries to get him one. Tammany is the littlo man's, Roosevelt's forgotten man, if you please, Big Fath er, and picnics and excursions in the country, at Tammany ex pense ore thrown in. As a result wJion election day . comes arqund the littlo voter marks his ballot as his good friend the Tammany local boss tells him. This is particu larly true in the large foreign districts in New York, the Italian, the Greek, the Jugo slav districts. They vote out of gratitude And these votes, while they represent a minor ity, represent a sufficiently SOLID minority to carry any normal oity cloction. This sys tem has been reduced to such a science, that any -Tammany leader can toll, two weeks be fore election, within 'a few thousand votes of how that olection will go. That is why the endorsement of Walker by Tammany would mean his election. And as long as we have in New York city, and in other parts of the country, such an efficient political organization, operating in an atmosphere of political apathy, and opposed by no SIMILAR ORGANIZA TION IN OPPOSITION such a scandalous system of graft and corruption will continue. The people of New York city have it in their power to over throw Tammany, to secure hon est and effioient government, two or three times when condi tions have become too outrage ous for even the complacent rank and file this has been done, but only once in about 40 or 50 years. They have done this by meeting efficient organization WITH efficient organization, by going to the polls on elec tion day, en masse instead of letting the "other fellow" do it. They could do it now. But will they t Not until the peoplo of New York all the people, become politically conscious, take the same interest in public business thoy do in their pri vate business, overthrow min ority rule by majority rule, in other words fulfill the funda mental obligations of democ racy, which the success and permanence of Democracy, PE1IANDS. When the people of Now York and the people of- this country, throw off their politi cal apathy, when an 80 per cent instead cf a 30 percent vote becomes normal on election day then will our Tammany Halls and Jimmy Walkers and local misfits and boodlers, disappear, BUT NOT UNTIL THEN I That is the lesson the hear ing and resignation of Jimmy Walker teaches would that the American people, not only in New York city, but through out the country might LEARN itl R. W. W. Today By Arthur Brisbane Have We So Many Idle? War? Possibly, England Sinks, 'The Earth Eats and Grows Copyright King Feature Synd., Inc. Mr. Green, head of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, says there are now eleven million, four hundred thousand unem ployed in the United States. That interests business, big and little, for it means a reduction of more than thirty-six thou sand million dollars a year' in the .purchasing power of the country. You can't meet that by rais ing prices of stocks, cotton, wheat, or anything else. Pros perity depends on SPENDING POWER. Tou can't irrigate crops by putting water into a reservoir and hoping it will leak out and reach the roots of the plants. You can't ( overcome lack of spending power by putting government hundreds of mil lions into a Wall Street reser voir, hoping that, in some mys terious way, the dollars will leak out into the pockets of eleven millions idle. Slnoe. there1 are more than eleven millions Idle, the government and the Federation of Labor might be Inter ested !n a decree prepared by Chan cellor von Papen, and signed by Hln denburg, to promote German busi ness. This decree will lighten tax burdens on Industry, the sort that this country Is industriously making heavier. The German decree plans the creation of 'five and a balf mil lion new jobs. Every Job, of course, means more spending power and bet ter business. General von Schleicher fears war with Poland, says so, and calls on "every male citizen of East Prussia to know his place when a call comes to defend the province." That doesn't sound peaceful. i News even more alarming, tells you In the first .headline, that "England , Is Sinking Into the Sea." I There Is comfort In the fact that 'this land, this realm, this England I la sinking only nine Inches In one hundred years." There Is some dam age; the Bank of England has sunki more than six Inches since 1868 and heavy St. Paul's Cathedral la gradu ally tilting over. Another 2000 years of sinking may become serious, but by that time England may merely be the west European office of the Brit ish empire, easily moved. Or there may not be any British empire. England sinks back Into the sea. whence It once slowly rose. The chalk cliffs on the British coast are made of little marine animals that once lived under water. Meanwhile old mother earth, as a whole, Is growing. like a whale that swallows tiny ma rine creatures as it plows through the sea. The earth, plowing through space. swallows millions of meteorites. You see them flashing as "shooting stars." There will be a great shower of them next November. A majority are very small, settling In meteoric dust at the bottom of the ocean. But some are "blgf The French will hunt for a million ton meteorite burled In the desert of Sahara. We have one as big, or bigger, In Arlsona.

SWEETS FOR THE 8TRONO AND THE VOl'NO An athlete who has had years of athletic training In high school, col lege and university, particularly In football and box ing, a a y a the coach's Instruc tions have always been to "go easy" on desserts that contain much sweet stuff and to "lay off" milk as milk Is hard on the wind. He declares that athletes of his acquaintance who have followed then Instructions have most easily attained and maintained the pink of condition. He believes sugar In the form of sweet chocolate or milk chocolate do no harm to a man In training but that the choco late causes loss of wind and alows up the man's work.' However, and this la the place where we take a second "time out" - to laugh, the coaches encourage their men to eat sugar In the form of candled dates and figs. . Also they urge players to eat four or five lumps of sugar dur ing the Intervals or halves of foot ball games, and during the relaxing period after a strenuous game the players were urged to eat still more sugar. He thinks the sugar has a distinctly refreshing effect which Is noticeably absent when the players do not get the sugar. Finally the athlete asks w.hy should pies, choc olate, cofee and even milk be hard on the wind. There Is no answer upon scientific ground. It Is Just one of those old Yankee customs. I believe some fus tian charlatan conceived the notion that certain foods coat the interior of the esophagus and stomach with mucus or something and well, that Is enough for our wiseacre mind. Milk is a rather bulky food for emergency use. One must take a quart of milk In order to get the same amount of nourishment (calories) one gets by eating less than four ounces of milk chocolate or sweet chocolate. It Is not advisable to take such a large quantity of liquid Into the stomach in the midst of a test of en durance or strength. It might em barrass the free action of the dia phragm and hence the return circu lation and seriously handicap the athletic performance. The coaches betray their gullibility or credulity when they sanction the eating of sugar In the form of can dled fruits or In the form of the nat ural fruit or In. any other particular nlng of life on this earth, after It cooled off. Money is queer. Wise finance tells you It all depends on how much gold you have back of your money. . How do they explain the fact that In Canada an American changing a United States twenty dollar gold piece gets only $17.60 in United States one-dollar bills, whereas for 20 of those one-dollar bills he can get $22.40 in United States gold coin. Try to figure that out. In Russia, a government disliked by gold countries, the supply of cur rency has" recently bean increased to a small extent, corresponding with increased gold holdings, and the value of the ruble dropped seriously, al though the total issue of rubles is In our money, less than three and a ba.f billions. Nobody knows much about money. but there isn't any doubt that if this country, to solve its problems, should print one, or two, or five billion dol lars in currency, with the. govern ment's guarantee on It, that currency would be better than the gold bonds of other nations. But that would not suit the gentlemen that want to control the country's money supply, and do control It. That this la a rich country, and would he happy If it only knew what to do with Its wealth, how to manage, how to distribute It. you realize when you read that New York City pays Its public employees one million dollars a day. That is almost as much as It cost to run the whole government of the United States in hsppy old days before 1014 started our national squandering debauch. New York's taxpayers, supplying the one million dollars a day, for Jobs largely political, are not happy about It. It ought to gratify them to know that they have so much money, with something left over for building re pairs. In London, MayorCennsk of Chi cago, annoyed by Britishers talking about "Chicago crime," reminds them that they have 22,000 policemen in London. And "If Chicago had that many cops I could clear the city ot every criminal." The mayor would do It of courne If he could, but pos sibly he couldn't. It Isn't always the NUMBER or "COPS" that solve crime problems. Policemen can't cure a city of crimi nals, if any Judgrs sympathise too much with the crlmtnsls. and espec ially if othet "benevolent" Judgea in sist on freeing them on probation as fast as the pellet lock them up.

If they do not approve of eat ing plain cane sugar or candy or milk chocolate. In this funny notion they probably follow the precepts of certain charlatans who like to pretend they .have some Inside knowledge of nu trition not vouchsafed to phyatcolo glsts, chemists or physicians. These hocus-pokus merchants are forever telling suckers that honey, fruit sugar etc., or even unrefined or brown sugar, Is healthful In the diet, but refined white sugar is Just terrible. That's all applesauce. ' The plain truth Is that children or young persons who are physically active, who play or work hard, re quire and should have liberal rations of sweets in desserts, such as can dles, cakes, ice cream, puddings, etc. On the other hand, namby-pamby folk, young or old, who get by with out actually participating In the game or doing any real playing or working, fans, sports, spectators, old fogies, lazy people, and those who for any reason csn't play or work hard, ahoul'd say go easy with sugar and sweets.

A few days earlier, somebody else, Identity also unknown, stole 14 automatic pistols from the National Guard armory at Central t a, In Washington. Whereupon excitable people get all worked up and tell us Incoherently that communists are preparing to overthrow government here on the Pacific Coast and take matters Into their own hands, IF YOU are wise, you won't toss sleepless on your pillow all night worrying about this possibility. To begin with, If the communists are so poorly financed that the only way they can get arms Is by stealing an occasional machine gun from a coast guard boat and a handful of automatic pistols from an armory in Centralia, they aren't In a position to do us much harm.
