The county la alleged as well on the road to monarchy. An audit would show that the appointing has been better than some of the elect ing, which rested exclusively with the people, who some times vote their hates, Instead ot their heads, making the appointments necessary. The chief fault lies not so much with the peo ple, as with the primary system which hu bestowed upon Jackson county some outstanding Incompetent, un hampered by the slightest qualifica tion for the office they held. Gov ernment lies with the people, and lasts quick, as history shows. It based upon lies to the people. That was the recent big Idea, and quite suc cessful until exploded by Its own cussed ness. II on the road to mon archy, as feared, there wlU oe an lrstion of a king, sooner or later. The expense ot an election could be aaved by ehaktng dice, to see who His Highness would be.

Orrion Weather, Cloudy tonight and Thursday; showers tonight or Thursday In the northwest portion; normal tempera ture: moderate to fresh south wind Itshoca, JNC1A, tw mum w The Commissary Deficit IN a communication printed today, Hamilton Patton call attention to the fact that the $14,000 spent under the Fehl regime for the county commUnary, could be legally paid off by transferring an equal amount from the Highway Bond Sinking Fund to the General Fund, and thia amount therefore NOT stand as a deficit. ' This is true. A bill was passed by the last legislature author izing the county court to transfer $20,000 from the highway sinking fund to the general fund for relief purposes in other words the county could transfer money from one pocket to another, and instead of having a deticit of $14,000 in the commissary, reduce the highway sinking fund, by that amount. A S far as the financial situation of the county is concerned, this would be merely a mutter of bookkeeping, it would not change the. essentials of the situation in any way make the financial problem any easier to solve. But Mr. Patton seems to discern In this presentation of the case, an effort on the part of this newspaper or the county court to misrepresent the fnts. We oan assure him there was no such intention on our part, and know there was none on the part of the county court, NOR DO "WE BELIEVE SUCH A CHARGE IS IN ANT SENSE, JUSTIFIED. TETE figures presented to us by the county oourt, and printed by this paper, related to the condition of the county general fund ALONE. It was expressly stated that other funds were NOT included, the only purpose being to show the present condition of that fund, the reasons therefor, and the problem facing the new county budget committee. Those figures were, as presented, absolutely correct. There was no provision in the 1933 budget for a county commissary. Therefore the amount spent for it, WAS a deficit, and could be regarded as nothing ELSE. , How wisely that amount was spent, and how much it repre sented, unpaid bills, has nothing to do with the case, as we see it, the matter of the financial situation was and is at issue, not the matter of POLICY. As the Mail Tribune pointed out editorially at the time, the money spent on the commissary was forced upon the community by the depression, the severity of which could not be or WAS NOT forseen. There was no effort to make any man or men responsible for the depression. The reason the $20,000 available for local relief was not mentioned was due solely to the faet that it was never trans ferred and therefore never used. It COULDN'T show up in the report of the general fund, or consideration of that fund, because it never reached that fund. WHY WASN'T IT USED? The reason it wasn't used, was a differenence In the interpretation of the state law author izing it. The county court, believed it could be used for local relief. County Treasurer Walker, however, after a study of the law, ruled that if this $20,000 or any part of it were trans ferred from the highway sinking fund to the general fund, he would be obliged to call in county warrants to the amount of .he transfer, and cancel them. In other words, if this $20,000 were transferred TODAY, with approximately $160,000 in warrants outstanding, this money could not be used either to wipe out the commissary deficit, or provide further local relief, but only to reducing the warrant indebtedness by $20,000. Obviously until this legal tangle is cleared up, and an agree ment reaohed, there would be from the highway sinking fund county relief is concerned. THAT is where the matter 1 largely a matter of bookkeeping. The county only has so much mpney, in 1U various funds, not how it is spent, but how much is spent, alone determines the financial status, at any given moment. But in an emergency, like the present, with winter ap proaching and many in need, the Mail Tribune does feel, that the transfer of eash from the highway sinking fund, (money not representing local taxes, but O. & O. funds from the gov ernment) to county relief would be sound polioy, and from the humanitarian standpoint, has everything to commend it. If the state law, as it now stands, does NOT allow such a use, then it should be changed so such a use of the money can be made. If it does then action should immediately be taken. If the former interpretation is correct, then here is AN OTHER, matter for the special session or the legislature to attend to. Byrds New Adventure A LTHOUGH, as President Roosevelt says, 12 branches of science will be served, the public will be interested in th second expedition of Rear Admiral Byrd to the South Pole as a great adventure. The non-scientifio will follow the hardships, road about the hazards and the narrow escapes with all the avidity of the romantic mind, giving to the scientific discoveries only passing notice. Nor would the noted explorer and flyer have it otherwise. He says he Is making the trip just for the adventure and that probably is his main reason for going. It is as an adventurer that the masses are interested in him. The world seldom makes popular heroes out of scientists. And yet the expedition may make contributions to our fund of scientific knowledge which will make life easier, happier and safer for all of us. It will be equipped to solve some of the mysteries of meteorology and may learn something new about cosmto rays and radio interferences. Polar exploration has ceased to be the reckless adventure it was before the airplane oonquered the ice floes and before the radio made it possible to wander far beyond the frontiers of civilization and yet remain in toueh with the very heart of civilization. It seemed a much more dangerous feat when it meant being out of touch with the world for months far beyond the reach of help. R. S. GREEK PRINCESS TO WED BAVARIAN COUNT LONDON, Sept. 7.

At all time an Englishman Insist on having hi rights a the rest or the s worm nas reaaou hi Bjjjivjviam. sv England tor many years the chil dren of conscien tious objectors have been exempt from compulsory vaccination, altho the preponder inoi of belief among the coun try health au thorities and the general public has been that thia was dangerous to the community. The practice of vaccination has de clined in England In recent years. This is accounted for partly as a re sult of compulsory vaccination and partly as a consequence of the evo lution of smallpox, that Is to say, the change In character of the dis ease; In England, as In the United States, smallpox has become a milder type of Dines than was the smallpox of the nineteenth century. 80 peo ple have less dread of It and more readily neglect vaccination. Moreover theie It a real menacs In volved in vaccination, a menace suf ficiently grave to warrant at least n recons'.de ration of the whole ques tion of vaccination as a public health measure. I refer to the occurrence of encephalitis following vaccination brain Inflammation. which Is avow edly caused by the vaccine. Although thia deplorable complication or un toward effect occurs only rarely, wMr It does happen It 1 quite em-ugh to give the conscientious physician ter rible doubt. I have expressed here repeatedly my own personal doubt about (a) the occurrence of rabln In man, and (b) the administration (c) of Pasteur vi rus to persona who have been bitten by presumably rabid animals. All the scientific literature, all th recorded cases and all the experience of col league have failed to clear away ob scurity In which this problem Is sub merged. I don't know. I don't know. But if my own child were In that plight right now I believe I should NOT sanction the administration of the virus. I am comparing vaccine with antl rable virus because there are certain Impressive analogies between them. No one knows the cause of smallpox and no one knows the cause of rabies, if rabies really occurs In man. No one knows what disease Is Inoculated when w vaccinate an Individual suc cessfully no one can give absolute assurance of the purity of the vac NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O.

You see, It 1 Impossible to sterilize vaccine as ws sterilize anti typhoid bacterln, for example. In fact the most spproved method of prepar ing vaccine Is a crude and unscientific business, a groping in th dark, wltn a prayer that the vaccine shall carry no other disease than vaccinia. Like wise no one knows what disease is Inoculated when Pasteur virus 1 In jected for the prevention of rabies. It la all a terribly blind business, and we can only follow blindly the lead of the blind. After a calm consideration of the situation the council of the British Medical association, reaffirming its faith In the efficacy of vaccination to protect against smallpox, now holds thst the time has arrived to consider "whether greater protection against smallpox would not b afforded by voluntary rather than by compulsory vaccination." QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Cramps In Legs. I am nearly 80 years old. Six years ago I suffered much from cramps in the legs at night. Had to massage vigorously with an embrocation I, kept beside my bed for the purpose Then a niece advised that I put on tight garters at night. I tried It, and found relief. I still wear them every night and have no more cramps- T. W. Answer Thank you. Perhaps some ot our readers who suffer with such cramps will try wearing garters and report their experience.

I would Ilk to see silver remone tlzed at th rat of sixteen to one. I would Ilk to c the president Issue a billion dollar In national recovery notes, denomination of 86 to 820. With these notes, mad absolutely full legal tender la every field, let the government buy up silver and gold bullion, paying th very top price, and as the metal la stored In our vaults let regular gold and silver cer tificate be Issued and the temporary recovery note retired. This would be a mild inflation but perfectly sound, and would Immediately open the vault of the hoarded money of the nation. The government' promise to redeem a 85 note or a million of them. la Just as reasonable as It promise to redeem a bond. It la plain to men whose eyes are open that this entire program ic get ting us, as a nation, wholly sub servient to the great banking Interests ot the world, without one ray of hope that we will ever be able to pay our debts. Unless this administration does something other than get us deeper into debt there Is only one outcome revolution.

The farmers are getting restive, articulate, I am moved to this happy reflection by what has taken place in the convention of the Iowa Farmers' Union aa reported in your issue of the 31st Inst. The resignation of Sec'y. Wallr.ce Is de manded, the agriculture adjustment act 1 denounced a "stupid" etc. To bring back J'good times" by killing a million lady-pigs, plowing under cotton, wheat acreage reduction and other acta of sabotage, Is shall we say asinine? No. An ass Is an ad mirably logically acting animal. And all this In the face of desperate under consumption! This, some think, is the limit. But Is It? Nawt "You ain't seen nothing yet." As private ownership of capital becomes more and more Incompatible with progress and human welfare, as It surely must, far stranger things will be enjoyed or suffered. The faclstl will strive to keep this ownership where it is (which It is believed, Is what it is for) and successfully for a time. But only for a time. They little ap preciate the vast evolutionary forces that they must combat. The social world is at the open door of a new epoch.
