It la as though he wants no more of the world's confidences, rac ing martyrdom with stoicism that puts his admirers on their knees.' he offers no outlet for sympathy. His seems a tragic effort to triumph over bitterness. No other stretch offers the gloomy futility of that slinky stretch of West B8d strnet snuggled under the ele vsted. I never pass through It with out Involuntary sbud9er. Somewhere In Its shadows I visited the first dope parlor I ever saw. It was In IBIS. My guide was Don Clarke, the author, then a reporter for a morning paper, Investigating Broadway drug rings. At a scrofulous brown stone bear ing a mildewed brass sign "Room and Board" we were admitted by a typi cal rooming house drudge Into a front parlor. A chemically blond and becrllv buxom lsndlsdy dawdled over solitaire, a negro maid looking on. Now and then starey, pasty hollow syed wrecks wsndered In from an other room cocaine and heroin ad dicts. The mold kept offering them wster for insatiable thirsts. All seemed totally bereft of speech, liv ing wraiths. Now shd then the land lady would look up from her cards to relato extravagant fairy tales the grandeur of whloh I was told would weave through the phantasy of their dreams when they took another "hot." It was grimly horrible but pleasant to reed weeks later of a raid that sent the landlady to Blng Sing. The national advertising campaign exposing magicians' secrets did more damage to the illusionists' guild than was Imagined. Hundreds especially with tent and repertoire shows, find thera Is no demand for their art. tven 'ich expert prestidigitators as Jlate Leipzig, John Mulhollsnd and , Fred Keating find their best Masks lyne and Dovant tricks falling with a skush. The most deceiving sre simple and the fun was In making people wonder and try to outthlnk the magician. Every New York luggage store seems to open with a sale and continues the ballyhoo throughout existence. They remind me of my flrat luggage store purchase a suit case on Dear born street In Chicago. It was mads of a new process, I believe they called leatherold. Anyway, tugging It to the Polk street station I was caught In a fierce shower. The suit case melted like a dunked glngor snsp and the goo ran down the trouaer leg of my 914.08 Sunday suit. This was the qulxotlo trip on which X left home to become a newspaper man, Inspired by Grandma's advice: "It's good work, I guess, if you csn . get It to do." Bob Davis, dropping In a moment, picked up a morning paper and ob served It was funny how many bank ers were found clesnlng their re volvers In bath-rooms these days. And walking with Joe Laurie.

It is also reassuring to learn that the agitators who incited the farmers to violence were "communists from Chicago." The fanners of Iowa, and oughly aroused. As a whole ly opposed to farm foreclosures no doubt was partly responsible tration measure, giving financial owners whose mortgages are falling due. But the rank and file of farmers, not only in the Middlewest but throughout the country, are opposed to lawlessness and violence, and firm advocates of WHEN the first press reports of this outrage in Iowa came in, it was difficult to believe that such tactics had the endorsement of the farmers in the corn belt as a whole. The judge in question, was well known in the community and highly regarded. He was a man ot small means, whose record for fair dealing and straight shooting was beyond reproach. It must have been apparent to all, that he was merely performing a and conscientious judge, HAD But the professional Reds mob spirit of direct .action and men took over the leadership. The judge was dragged from conceivable abuse and insult, taken off and filled with mud dead than alive, into a ditch. It is to that judge's everlasting credit that he never weak ened, and even with death staring him in the face, refused to violate his oath of office,, and agree never again to rule on a foreclosure suit, as the Reds and AS A result of this mob violence, martial law was declared in thia nAp.t.inn nf t.ViA Rr.At.A And Inw and nrrlflr have now been restored. The Chicago Rods and Missouri River gunmen, not held in jail, on charges of sedition and lawlessness, have departed; the judge has returned to the bench, and is now regarded quite properly so as a local and national hero. The following dispatch from this community is illuminating : "As a result of this deplorable outbreak, publlo opinion has completely veered over from the embattled farmers to the forces of law and order. This Is no place for Chicago Reds or Missouri gunmen to show their faces again. Every legitimate relief to the hard pressed farmers will be granted and every legal concession to avoid foreclosure allowed. But the farmers of this section of the stats and of Iowa as a whole, will tolerate no more mob action or violence. They will seek relief hereafter under the law, not In violation of It. The principles of an orderly government will be rigidly and uncompromisingly malntslned." Good Luck! THE best description of the present state of this country, we believe is oontained in that familiar saying s ' "We dont know where we are going, but ws sre on our way." The better feeling in the United States is due to the fact that "we are on our way." Something definite is being done. In fact so many definite things that it makes one dizzy. These things may all be good they may all be bad they may be about half and half. No one knows. No one can know. We are like Columbus when he started to discover a short route to India, on an unknown and uncharted sea. Columbus didn't discover what he was looking for. He did discover America. That discovery was far more important than the one he had in mind, but it was made. He too when he set going, but found great delight in "fAKE inflation for example. The people of this country as 1 a whole are for it, not because they understand it, or know just how it will work, but because it is something definite, and after so much inaotion and so muoh "indefiniteness" something definite is a great joy. Inflation is like insanity. You can get as many experts on one Bide of the case as the other. The plain truth is, in matters mental and finanoial there is no recognized authority. So at the present moment observer can say regarding Unole Sam. "He doesn't know where he is going but he is on his way." And after being idle in port relief. Meanwhile about all most the crew, can do is trust in pilot, and in his, and our own, SKIRTED ANGLERS EVADE LICENSE LAW IS ASSERTION PORTLAND. May 10.
