FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT insures the cattle men of Arizona. that be believes in a protective tariff for livestock, and if elected will not lower the present schedule. While in California, one of his chief supporters assured the Golden State ranchers, he believed in tariff protection against Sicilian lemons, Italian cherries, and Chinese eggs. In Seattle it was announced the lumber tariff would not be lowered, and before representatives of organized labor in the industrial East, Mr. Roosevelt assured his hearers, he favored a tariff which would proteot them from the cheap labor of foreign lands. And now in Utah, and southern Arizona, democratic leaders assure the people that the tariff on copper will not be lowered, if Roosevelt wins. ALL OP WHICH MAKES THE STAND OP THE DEMO CRATIC PARTY AND ITS LEADER ON THE TARIFF, JUST AS CLEAR AS MUD. e e f UST where the democratic party and its leader stand on this moot question, we frankly don't know, and we don't be lieve anyone else knows. For many months democratic newspapers and orators have jeen blaming the Smoot-Hawley tariff for most of the ills of this harassed land, from bread lines in New York, to farm foreclosures in Oklahoma. It has been the chief cause of the depression, responsible for the lowest commodity prices on record. Yet ONLY A FEW YEARS AGO, the democrats were blam ing the Republican tariff for the HIGHEST commodity prices on record, it had to shoulder all the blame for making rich men richer, and saddling the poor with the insufferably high cost of living, Just how the tariff can bo responsible for HIGH prices one year, and for STARVATION fear, never will be explained. K ND now after shooting the of holes, and advocating Roosevelt and his leaders, in where the provisions of that tariff apply, and the protection aecorded is popular, go on record, as the democratic candidate did ip Arizona yesterday, as favoring the retention of present schedules. Cortainly it is to laugh I Nor is the reason far to seek. The plain truth is there is no tjariff issue between the two major parties, and the effort of the Democrats to create one, is merely political molasses to catch the voting flics. Draw a graph of Mr. Roosevelt's endorsements of tariff pro tection when he completes his swing around the circle, in the industrial eenter of the East, In the lumber districts of the northwest, in the eitrus country of California, in the cattle and mining oountry of the southwest, and any impartial obsorver will find him, standing precisely where President Hoover stands. For the prlnoiple of tariff protection, where it is looally desired, for tariff reduotlon, through a non-partisan tariff com mission and executive aotion, whenever tariff protection is higher than the ciroumstances warrant. In short the tariff differences between them and their par ties, as we have so often pointed out, is merely the difference between tweedle dum and tweedle dee. Looks Like a Hoss Race FOR people sportively inclined, who wish to wager on the presidential election we would advise, waiting a while The first Literary Digest poll gave Hoover a slight edge, the second gives the.edge to Roosevelt; but the figures, thus far, are neither conclusive, nor important. Presidents are elected by states, not by oities, and not by the popular vote. The winner in faot may well be far behind in the popular vote and still have a majority in the electoral college. The straw vote thus far clearly indicates only ONE THING, that this is going to be a hoss race. BUT the real reason we advise caution to those sportively inclined is that we don't believe the American people as a whole have made up their minds how they will vote. Two things are going to determine that very largely. First, and foremost whether the business ourve continues to go up, between now and November. If it goes up SHARPLY, Hoover will win, if it goes down SHARPLY, Roosevelt can't lose. If it does neither, but goes up rather more than down, the second faotor will take the determining role. "PHIS is what the two opposing candidates do and say, during the rest of the campaign. There is no doubt that Roosevelt Baid things in Seattle endorsing certain radical candidates, which lost him many votes, and probably the editorial support of the Seattle Times. He may say similar things elsewhere, which in a close contest may swing the tide against him. Hoover on the other hand, runs no such risk. His cautious temperament insures him against breaks. Aa his acceptance apeech demonstrated, his fighting spirit is aroused; his political sfiises are more alert than ever before. With other things equal, he might win the deoision, by the three or four speeches he plans to deliver. So the result still lies in the laps of the Gods. Those who want to wager on the outcome, better keep their hands on their poeketbooks, until the first of October. NORMAL PUPILS HEAR GREENLEAF (Br Charles P. Champlln. Jr.) At the regular assembly period yesterday at Southern Oregon nor mal school, the students were pleas antly surprised when Wm. Lee Green leaf, noted humorist and reader, pre sented a very excellent program. Hla first selection waa the story of Rip Vanwinkle. Mr. Ureenisaf took all the characUra' parte hlrnaelf and depicted the famous myth from be. ginning to end.

Thia piece held the atu denta in constant laughter. Preceding the program by Mr. Qreenleaf, Mr, Strange, profeaaor of eduction, announced to the studenta that the first "mixer" would be held October 7 In the auditorium. One of these eo-called "mixers" la held the beginning of each school yew. In order that the students may be come acquainted with each oth.-r. The rule la that a student can't leave this affair until he or ahe hss msde themselves known to at least six other studenta.

China offers to buy the wheat, the question is whence the money is to come from I ' In view of the fact that mil lions are starving in China some way of shifting the wheat from our surplus into starving Chinese stomachs should be found. We managed to send ten thousand million dollars to Europeans, killing each other, and we shall not get that money back. If we sent fifteen million bushels of wheat to starving Chinese men, women and chil dren, Providence and the far mers ccrtninly would applaud, even if we never got the cash. Mr. Knickerbocker, studying Europe sends extremely Interesting Informa tion to Cyrus H. K. Curtis about Mussolini's plans. He grabs the de pression situation by the horns and not gently, There la trouble with the big bank, the Italian government takea charge of It. There la trouble with big Industries, Mussolini's gov ernment also takes charge of them. Mussolini Is doing In the name of conservatism, capitalism and mon-r archlal government what Stalin la doing for Russia In th name of Com munism, Marxism and Sovletlsm. Both apparently believe that some thing better than hit or miss Individ ual Initiative and free competition are needed, Our best minds will watch th pro- grama carefully. The ancient market olty of Nlahnt- Novgorod hss been renamed "Korkl" In honor of the distinguished Russian writer.

Attend to your business ably and your business will attend to you. Dr. John T. Dorrance, able head of a great canned soup company who recently died, evidently knew how to make good soup and sell It. The state of Pennsylvania will collect $20,000,000 as taxea on the property that he left.

He took nourishment at 0:30 a. m. yesterday, eastern atandard time, for the first time In six days and five hours. Por a man wasted to a shadow by habitual semt-starvatlon, such a fast must mean serloua ahortenlng of life. There Is no doubt that Gandhi would have starved himself to death. The wise British know when to give way. General Von Seeckt, called the "moat famoua German military strategist" says that since the other nations will not disarm, Germany will bring herself up to full military strength and "there Is no fore on earth that can prevent Germany from becoming a great military power." That la true; on victory mean nothing. Prance lost In 1870 and won In 1918. Germany lost In 1018 and Inevitably will be making anoth er attempt to wipe that out, and take back Alace and Lorraine before the century Is half ended, UNLESS hu man beings suddenly become enlight ened and refer national quarrels, as they no refer personal quarrels, to a legal decision.

J.1 J vam wv Ml l,uni I dress Dr. William Brady In care of Ihe CALENDAR FOB CORRECTION OP. A HABIT A mother writes: A year ago I wrote you in re gard to my child's bed wetting. I am happy to report that your advice h a a proved the right psychology. I purchased from the ata tloner a lit tle box of red atars, gummed 0 n the back. Every night the child kept dry she was al lowed to stick one of the stars on the big kitchen cslendar. The whole family became Interested In the plan and the child saw how pleased everybody was about each day'a red star. By the end of three months she was able to cover every day with a star, with no numbera left uncovered on the calendar. We are sure this made such an Impression on the child's mind that it worked a cure even during sleen. The mother has the right Idea. Bedwettlng la a habit and not an ailment. Neither Is It "kidney trou ble." Nor a "weakneas." It Is a mis take for a parent or other guardian of such a child to utter any excuse for such a habit In the child's pros- ence, especially harmful to explain that the child "comes by It naturally" because some forbear has had the same habit. Th child who wets the bed can overcome the bad habit and remain dry If he wanto to. Any parent or guardian who takes this to mean that scolding, censure punishment or shame will make the child want to remain dry Is too dumb or vicious to have charge of the train ing of a child. In exceptional Instances it may be possible for the entire family to tske such an Interest as this mother de scribes, but as a rule the matter ahould be kept as nearly secret as may be, between child and guardian. The calendar plan Is an excellent one for the child three or five yeara oi age, but for older children the mark or reward for each dry night should be more appropriate to the mental age. Hae vou ever had to wake up at an unusual hour In the night or early morning to catch a train or keep an appointment? You wanted to wake and you did wake, wouldn't have done any good if somebody had threatened, ridiculed, embarrassed or shamed you about It. But If you want to wake you wake or you fall to wake at the designated time. Well, the child can control the emptying of the bladder during sleep If he wants to. But he must want very much to do so If he Is to make a success of It. Sometimes It is hard for a harassed mother 'or an em barrassed father to avoid showing Impatience, annoyance or disgust, but any such manifestation Is fatal to dignity to refer a quarrel to anything or anybody except their swords. Duels, miniature wars, decided who was right. Cardinal Richelieu did a great deal to discourage that. Some way ahould be found to discourage the interna tional murdering, the wholesale duels called "war." At about fifty many men lose cour age. At that age, courage anouia in crease, for If you have gone through life's troublea for fifty yeara, you should be able to cover th rest of the ground. But, It does not work In that way. Two middle aged men killed them selves In New York yesterday. One George P. Elseman, fifty. Jumped from the 16th floor of a hotel. An other, Isldor Dublnsky, younger, Jumped from the 42nd floor of an other building. Why not wait and see what will happen? Napoleon thought of sui cide, befor his nam was known. What interesting daya he would have missed. De Valera, president of the Irish Prce state,, presiding ovor the League of Nation general assembly, says strange things. Instead of calling the league perfect, he said It stood under suspicion, "a defendant at the bar of publlo opinion." He also demanded that the league deal with all alike, weak little nations, or powerful big nations. De Vetera takes the ,league too seri ously If he thinks It will talk to Japan or Italy as It talks to Austria, and -other countries hamstrung by the treaty of Versailles.

If the people of Orm Paan can install aa artificial unit that will generate electrical energy at a cost, roughly, of one-eUhth the price they are paying for lighting service, do you believe they would be wlthtn their rights In so doing, and entitled to the support of the prens?

Nothing but wholesome sym pathy and encouragement should be given the child, and of course, a quiet how of pleasure when the child chalks up a dry night. At first the rewards, If any. should be small favora and ahould be given or withheld for each night's record. Not until the child can have at least three or four nights dry in succession should any substantial re ward be promised for the first dry fortnight or th first dry month, such aa a bicycle, or a vacation trip, or some unusual opportunity the child especially craves. incidentally, most children who wet the bed get over It by the time they are eight yeara old anyway. By that time they naturally want to be dry. In any case, however, the child's general hygiene and diet ehould be carefully regulated. Send for special instructions inclose stsmped enve lope bearing your address and give your child's age. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Leave It to the Charlatans. I would appreciate It If you would give a few talks about toxic poison ing, toxemia and autointoxication. These are auch prolific causes of 111 heslth that I am sure many readers would be Interested. i Answer Obviously you have been misled by quack bait. "Toxic poison ing" which the .charlatans feature In their appeala to prospective customers is a purely Imaginary state. Toxlo means poisonous. Ridiculous to de scribe poisoning as poisonous. Tox emia means poison In. the blood. Tox emia Is an effect, never a cause of disease. Autointoxication is a mor bid notion without sclentlflo basis. So, If you are determined abou It, you must turn to the come-on book lets and ads of the quacks and nos trum mongers for that aort of poison, lodln Ration Does No Harm. Tou state that there is no evidence that the use of Iodised salt Instead of ordlnsry salt ever does any harm. May I call your attention to a report published in the Journal of the Amer ican Medical association. June 9. 192B, by Bedford Shelmlre. on "Acne from Iodized Salt." H. O. H.. R. N. Anewer Notwithstanding th odd notion entertained by the author of the article. I still assert, and experi ence now fully bears me out In the belief, that the use of iodized salt In place of common salt as a means of providing an lodln ration neer does any harm and generally does real good In preventing both simple and exophthalmic goiter. The sur geons who conceived the notion that Iodized salt might do harm, were se renely Ignorant of the fact that a can of sslmon contains more lodln than anyono can possibly got from Iodized salt. The large hospitals in the goi ter belt have had a steadily decreas ing number of operationa for goiter since iodized salt came Into wide use in the communities served by the hospltala. (Copyright, John P. Dllle Co.) do you not believe that th same commission was guilty of a gross dere liction of duty In their failure to advise the Medford city council elml larly In the matter of their considera tion of a new Copco franchise a few weeks back? And particularly so In view of the fact of the commission having knowledge that the average rate for lighting throughout the pro vince of British Columbia la cents per k. w. as against 8 cents In Medford the cost of development and transmission being equal In' both places. On the basis of this compsrlson do you not believe that the extortionate proportion of the 3 per cent federal tax. something In excess of 60 per cent now levied ss tribute upon the consumer, should be absorbed by the utility? Otherwise the consumer is doubly pensllzed by the dereliction of his- public servants, FRED JCELLY. 317 B. Jsckson St., Medford. Ed Note: Governor Roosevelt en- dorsed public regulation of electric light and power rates, privately owned, as preferable to public ownership and operation. He only favored the latter where the former failed to give the people fair rates, and then advocated public ownership and operation, as a threat to make the public utilities be have, rather than as a permanent policy. This is. and always has been, the view of the Mail Tribune. If In Grants Pass, Portland, or any where else, such regulation through a public service commissioner or com mission, after having been given a fair trial, falls to give the people just rates, then and then only would the people of such communities be jxw ti tled in launching into public owner ship and operation, building their own light and power plants. thus in jecting politic Into, and eliminating private Initiative from the entire mat ter of light and power service. Many j factors enter into the complicated j question of what Is and what Is not a fair rate, overhead, tax losses. In vestment, Interest, etc., etc. and th question Is not one for the power companies or the consumers to de- ,cide. but for an Impartial and Ju- dleW body of experts. As to the final question. The Mali i Tribune, three months ago editortally condemned forcing the consumer to I absorb the federal tax. and main I talned this tax should be absorbed by the power companies. 4 Phoenix Church Dinner Planned PHOENIX.
