The fish did not bite for the distinguished gent, any better than the Jackson county republicans voted for him. t t The outstanding alibi of the day Is: "We all make mistakes." This la quite true, but only a small percen tage make a two-year speech about the error. t The German Nazi has prohibited lady agltatora from using artificial beauty aids. This would be a good Idea. If there was a beauty aid pow erful enough to do a lady agitator any good. Nothing can be so defiant or deluded about a fool notion as a lady agitator.

A RADIO ni.ESSINO As the road show has departed from the hinterlands, so has the pulplt-thuniplng evangelist who yearly toured the sowbelly and sor ghum circuit comprising Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri and Iowa. For merly those four states were good for a thirty-week sesson. Today the bawl pilots are lucky If they can get two full weeks out of the territory. They blame the radio for the fall of their profession. Outlanders who were once Im pressed by the holy-rolling singles row sit at home and listen to their radios. Young back-landers have be come emancipated through the auto mobiles, radio and talkies, and are no longer Impressed by the Hell'a fire and brimstone routine. email community ministers are satisfied to have the pay-or-plsy evsngellsU remain out of their terri tory. Average salary of the small town Ulvlnea Is around 1400 per year.

(Variety.) r Fisherman's Luck VTE3 there IS uo' a thin8 88 'uelc- Steelhead fishing in the A Rogue is reasonably good. Many local Waltons have re turned of late with fine catches. But former President Hoover fished the famous stream all day and never got strike. Over four years ago he did the same thing, and never got a thing, except a mess of unwelcome publicity, as a result of being pestered by newspaper photogra phers. Our former president has no luck, He loves fishing but the fish don't bite at least not what he offers. He Is devoted to bis country, and no man is more eager to serve his country, but his services failed, and bis couutrymen no longer want them. He has no luok. Or perhaps it would be more aceurate to say that what luck he does have is BAD. e e XE can moralize as we wish about there being no such thing as luck. We can demonstrate with great ease, that what is commonly termed luck is merely a combination of hard work, persistence, and ability to take advantage of opportunities when they are presented. The fact remains some people are born lucky and some aren't. Former President Hoover unquestionably comes under the latter classification.. "There is a destiny that shapes our ends rough hew them as we will." It was Herbert Hoover's "destiny" to love fishing and never get a bite I Senator McNary Returns SENATOR McNARY returns from Washington, and is greet ed by .Republicans and Democrats alike with open arms. Tho Oregouian and Journal, sworn political enemies, vie with each other, to do Oregon's senior senator honor. Neither can say too many nice things about him. All of which demonstrates once more that Senator McNary is one of the most skillful politicians in the country today. We don't use "politician" in any derogatory sense. After all, no man lacking in political sense, and skill, can get anywhere in publio life. Sueeess in politics merely means, in. the last anal ysis, an ability to get along with people all sorts of people. Senator McNary has that faculty developed to the nth de gree. But with all this facility, our senior senator is neither an opportunist nor a demagogue. Quite the reverse. He is supporting President Roosevelt's recovery program, it is true. But not because it is popular. He is supporting it because he is convinced the country is in serious danger, and the adminis tration's program is the only practical way out.' When the dan ger is over, and the issues are clearly defined between the two major 'parties, Charlie" can be depended upon to be four square with the party in which he believes. e e e s IN other words Senator McNary has a good head, and alwaya uses it. This is the real reason he has such strength in his own state, and such power in Washington. The demagogue merely tries to follow tho crowd and appeal to its baser instincts. Senator McNary in his quiet but never. theless effective way, never tries to follow the crowd, but tries to appeal .to reason and common sense and get the crowd" to follow him. In short Senator McNary is a real statesman, and has the sound political judgment, whioh every statesman in a democracy must possess if he expects to get anywhere. Ashland Commends Day TPHB selection of Earl B. Day as Jackson county judge will A not of course harmonize with the ideas of all who might have taken a part in the propaganda that usually attends such an appointment, but, the Daily Tidings is sure, the appointment of Judge Day will result in a harmonious conduct of the busi ness of Jackson county, fair treatment to all and an absolute assurance that no monkey-business will be permitted.. A man of the highest type, a man who has proved that he takes a personal pride in service to his community, Judge Day will quickly become .the leader in the triumvirate which con ducts the vast business of Jackson county. He has two county commissioners, Ralph Billings and R. E. Nealon, who have stood fast in the midst of probably the greatest tribulation any two county commissioners ever encountered and the Daily Tidings sees only a very successful and rejuvenating administration under the leadership of Judge Day, with the hearty and well seasoned cooperation of Commissioners Billings and Nealon. Ashland Tidings. Editorial Comment An Insult to Nature. Old you aee In a Portland display window the two glass containers, one with pure water, the othai with water from the Willamette river at Port land? Did you notice aha lure of the pure water and the nauseating ap pearance of the filthy river waterf And aa you looked, did the thought come ta you ot how unintelligent we have been In permitting the beauti ful Willamette to become a dirty aewer. In Berlin and Paris no eewage la allowed to go Into rivers flowing through those cities. With the most Jealous care and by the moat rigid lawa these streama are shielded against pollution. The pure water In one of the glass containers In a Portland window pic tured the great rivers of Europe. The filthy water In the other mirrored our own Willamette, of which Sam Simpson wrote, "Time that scare us, malms and mars us, leaves no track or trench on thee. But wa Oregon people left our "track" on the Willamette. Prom a clear flowing stream running onwsrd to the sea, we have converted It Into a glgantlo flood of filth. We have oolored It with the foul refuse and dirty waste of all our cities and towns slong Its banka. The pollution la a crime against liciKh. It la an agency for spread. :n- disease. It u a libel on civilisa tion. It ta an Insult to nature and a travesty on the plana of nature and divine Intelligence for this to be a delightful world.

At this time of year many parents wish to know whether It la sata to change the milk they feed the baby, ,,,..1-. .. aa win oe neces sary u tney go on a projected vacation. It la perfectly aafe to do so. provided the milk the baby re celvea on the va cation trip or In the summer re sort la aafe for Infant feeding. The purest and safest milk for a baby or for children or Invalids is Certified Milk milk so labeled on the bottle cap. Certified milk Is raw milk produced and distributed under strict supervision and regular Inspection of a commission including physlcisn, veterinary physician, bac teriologist, chemist, health officer or representstlve of the local health de partment. Another grade of milk that Is per fectly safe for the baby or any one on a summer tour Is Pasteurized Milk milk so labeled on the bottle csp. Pasteurized milk la any milk which hss been heated up to 148 degrees F. kept at that temperature for 20 to 30 minutes, then allowed to cool again. Such a par-bolllng has been found to kill any phyphold. tubercu losis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, sep tic sore throat or undulant fever germs the milk might happen to contain, It Is unwise to take a chance with ordinary raw milk which one may obtain while traveling or while Ltay lng for a few weeks In a strange place. If neither Certified Milk or Pasteurized Milk la obtainable, then any other milk ahould be boiled, par boiled or scalded before It Is fed to an Infant or child. Of course boiling, tor five mlnutss Is a practical way to sterilize any milk, but such boiling altera not only the taste, but also the physical character of the albumen or protein constituent of milk and their digesti bility and their nutritive availability. Likewise it destroys um Ins In milk. For a temporary emergency these ob Jectona are unimportant. An Infant may thrive for a few weeks on boiled or par-boiled milk, but will certainly develop scurvy or other deficiency disease If fed on such sterilised food for months. Any one who will take the pains can pasteurize milk quit aa effec tively in the home aa la dona In large milk stations or dairies. All that the housewife requires Is a double boiler and a thermometer. State Press Comments On Conviction of Fehl TUP, RING IS BUSTED. Tea, we know of course that there la.no such word aa busted, but there ought to be. How would It sound to ssy. "The Ring la Burst"? Anyway, the thing we are writing about la the Medford ring of politicians who have been running things down there with a high hand and In the name of Qod, home, native land and righteousness Judge Fehl, the brains of the ring, has been convicted of ballot steeling and we congratulate the Klamath Pslls Jury that took only 20 minutes to make Its decision. It took per hapa 10 minutes to get organized. Fehl and Banka were the orlgl- natora of the fuss. They were the prima instigators ot the "Oood Gov ernment League." They learned long ago that It was easy to get suckers Into any kind of an organization that proteased to be forward looking and to stand for righteousness and against whatever Is. Both were newspaper men, wa are sorry to say. And by the way, there are fewer newspaper men In tha penitentiaries of this country than there are men of any other profession, according to tha to tal numbera In the professions. For the good of the order, there will soon be two mora. The difference between Fehl and Banka, aa wa aee It, la that Fehl waa purposely a demagog and a crook while Banka coifldn't help It. Banks seems to be suffering from some sort ot delusion, but he couldn't be yanked off hie tripod and tried tor lunacy. There are dozens Just like him In Congress. Soma 80 per cent of the people being morons, It Is alwaya easy for an upuiter to get a following by abusing the lna and promising reform, any kind of re form whether anything needs It or not. It la even a better shibboleth than a promise to reduce usee which alwaya gets a bunch of half wits lined up under tha banner ot tha candi date dishonest enough to carry It. The Jackson county fanaticism waa only a replica of the Insanity that stood for free electricity without cost to the taxpayers. But now the righteousness ring la "busted." Let Jackson county not be too quick In breathing a sigh of re lief. It was only a few years sgo that It did that when shirt tailed shoutera of hallelujah yanked ott their pillow slips. Then came Banks and his delusions and his dsluded fol lowers. Something else will be along In a few months. It la not for noth ing that a lady anaka charmer came along and aurkered the natives out ol all their diamonds, money and cloth Ing a few dan ago. It It la true, as Barnum asid that the American peo ple like 'to be humbugged, then the Jackson county people fairly love It. (Oorvallla Qasette-Tlmea.l To Medtorrl a f uture. If there la any lingering doubt In the mind of anyone regarding the true slluatlrn cr af.'-tl-s In J.ckaon county that culminated In the mur der of Constable Preecott by L. A Much simpler and preferable, I think, la the practice of acaldlng any milk of doubtful purity. Scalding meana almply bringing the milk to a boll for an Instant, and then letting It cool again Immediately. Tula de stroys any disease germs there may be In the milk. Scalding, moreover, has been found to produce less physi cal change In the albumen or protein constituents, and too, it la leas de structive to Vitamin O than Is par bolllng aa thia occurs In the pas teurization process. .So I advise that any milk other than Certified Milk or Pasteurized Milk be scalded to make sure It Is safe for the baby. Of course, every Infant nowadays receives fresh fruit Juice or fresh vegetable Juice dally to protect against scurvy. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Hydrochloric Acid. A prescription in an old medical book calls for a teaspoonful of hydro chloric acid in four ounces of water, a teaspoonful after meals. Is this an aid to digestion? On the hydrochloric add I find a label Poison. (Mrs. E. R.) Are three stamps and a penny equivalent to a dime? I'd like your booklet No. 32 Guide to Rlht Eat ing. Answer Many good medicines are poisons when unlntelllgently used. The gastric Juice during digestion of albumin or protein. Sometimes phy slclana prescribe dilute hydrochloric acid after food, when there Is defic iency 'or absence of the acid in the stomach. You had better not monkey with such medicine oil your own. No. a dime la a dime, and stamps are something else. The Peril of Cleanliness, Plessa tell me whether there Is any harm In taking a tub bath at the time of menstratlon. A friend ot mine claims she even takes an ocean dip at such a time. Mrs. P. Answer It Is all right to take a bath or go in swimming then If you wish. Appendicitis. Had a slight attack of appendicitis, went on a diet for a. few days, now tsklng mineral oil every morning. What to eat Is the problem. T. E. Answer I advise you take flaxseeds Instead of mineral oil. A mixed diet, with a liberal proportion and variety of vegetables, fruits and milk, Is ad visable. Of course, this Includes meats once a day. (Copyright, 1933, John F. DUle Co.) ' Ed Note: Readers wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady ahould send letters direct to Ur. William Hrady, M. I)., 2ns El Ua mlno, Beverly Hills. Calif. Banka lut spring It should be re moved by the speedy convlctton ot County Judge Fehl on the charge or participation In the theft and de struction of ballots. The fact that the trial waa held In another county where there waa none of the preju dice and bitterness that had de veloped In Jackson and the further fact that the Jury waa out only 30 mlnutea shows conclusively that the evidence of Fehl's guilt was over whelming. The conviction la especially Im portant because It knocks out the last prop from the argument that Fehl and Banka were tlie exnonents of political purity In Medford and Jackson county and that all their op ponents and the people they were continually Inveighing against were crooks 'and worse. Medford has gone through a terrible experience, resulting In the loss ol life, the disruption of the commu nity and the development of the worst kind of discord and turmoil. Now that Banks and Fehl and their lesser conspirators have been removed from the picture It will be Oregon's hope that the city will recover and speedily resume Ita former even tenor of exist ence. (Bend Bulletin.) Mr. Banks Draws a Conclusion. Llewellyn A. Banka. awaiting sen tence for murder, has written this newspaper letter of protest against the nature of editorial comment on his recently published book. He leaps to the assumption that the review of his work, to which the Oregon. an al luded, waa furnished by one whom he considers an enemy. How else mtght we have obtained It? We are under no obligation to answer the question, but nevertheless shall do so. The review was contained In an Impartial news dispatch coming from Eugene, where Mr. Banks la In prison, and appeared in these columns. The suspected enemy Uvea In Medford. It Is readily apparent that Mr, Banks has not yet begun to learn his lesson. Delusions of persecution still attend him. He will leap at a conclu sion aa readily aa ever. He believes yet In a chimerical intrigue that haa for Ita purpose the undoing of Llew ellyn A. Banks. It avails nothing to Indicate to Mr. Banka. though he will have abundant time In which to think tt over, that It waa thla trait ol chronic susptclon. carried to Its grim ultimate, which placed him where he is.. But the lesson remains for any one else who cares to consider it. (Oirgontan.) Liquidating the Hank Mint. Conviction of County Judge PVhl of participation in the now famous Medford ballot t tip ft. voted by a Klamath rails Jury Friday afternoon within no mlnutea after receiving the case, brings the trial of these suits practically to a close aa several have pleaded guilty and avoided the necee ;lty of trials. But not without another killing. Within a taw hours of tha Fehl con viction one of his adherents beat an old man so vigorously thst his victim died. Tha asssllant la already under conviction on ballot theft charges and will now be tried on some chsrge rela tive to the killing. It will be re called that a police officer, Qeorge Preecott, waa shot and klUed by Banka himself, so thla la tha aecond killing. All thla mess la tha outgrowth ot L. A. Banka wild tirade In southern Oregon. Banks waa formerly rich, but lost his property due to the coUapse of tha fruit business. He lost his hesd along with It and acquiring a newspaper began the aertea of attacks on some of his fellow citizens down there that culminated In two homi cides and a whole flock of other felo nies. Banks la under sentence of Ufa Im prisonment, but la not In prison. He la reported to be living regally at the Eugene JaU. writing a book, receiving visitors and generally enjoying the fat ot the land. He will be there for some time after bis less fortunate followers are Incarnated In the "big house," for In rebellions. Ilk other wars, the generals have privileges not available to the buck privates. (Baker Herald Democrat.) Convictions, uetrials. . Retribution la fast overtaking tha Jackson county terrorists .who for months kept the southern Oregon community In social turmoil, finally climaxing In murder. The conviction of Earl H. Fehl. Jackson county Judge, of the charge of ballot theft, Is the latest addition to the list of those who are coming to find that there is a day of reckon ing. L. A. Banks and Earl Fehl were the Inspiration and the directing brains of the gang recruited, from the ranks of the discontented, the Ignorant, and the chronlo trouble-makers ot which every community has Its ahare Through speech and press they di rected a running fire at constituted authority. They fanned the flames of discord until It flared Into the ex tremes of lawlessness. Both Banks and Fehl filed affi davits of prejudice and a change of venue was granted In each case. Banks took his case to Lsne county and Fehl to Klamath county. Both have made application for retrial. Why should these men be retried? Banks shot down an Innocent peace officer In cold blood. He was tried before a Judge of his own choosing. He was defended by noted legal talent and found guilty by a Jury remote from the crime after every prejudic ial and political device had been permitted to be HberaUy employed in his behalf. In the case of Fehl, It took the Klamath county Jury but a dozen minutes to find him guilty as charged complicity In the theft and destruc. tlon of Jackson county election bal lots. It Is premature to aay that these men will be permitted to drag these cases through the courts again upon the showing of the slightest technical error. But that Is the usual pro cedure. We lean over backward In this country In tavor of the criminal. It Is all right to be careful that no Injustice be done the accused. But It la all wrong to encourage the criminal by auch delaya and appeals and subterfuges as generally make up the records of criminal cases. (Ore gon City Enterprise.)

Although I'm not claiming to be a father of this plan, I can aay that, for the last Iwo years I've argued that a plan of this sort waa the only solution to the depression and un employment. Now that we have the NRA, It Is up to every employer to do with as small a profit as possible and pay higher wages and employ more men If even our form of government la to be saved. If we lose, then personal Initiative will also be lost and valueless for under the "Red plan,' the brilliant and the simple, the skilled and un skilled will all receive the same wage, namely, "board and room."
