It has taken over g year, and the expenditure of great energy and literally millions of dollars to bring this about. In all the 36 states the organized Drys fought hard to prevent repeal, employed speakers of national reputation, used the moral argu ment effectively and persistently, but only in the solid south, and only in two states, have their efforts been successful. The repeal of the 18th amendment, while not news, at this time, is nevertheless one of the most sensational examples of the reversal of public sentiment, in the history of this country. A year ago no one would have believed repeal POSSIBLE. In fact one of the best known loaders of the Association Oppos ing the 18th Amendment only last January, admitted the amend ment would probably never be taken out of the constitution, but declared it would become a dead letter, and suffer the nullifi cation, in the country at large, that the amendment giving the negro the franchise, has suffered below the Mason and Dixon line. That was very generally the accepted view of the country. TJUT something HAPPENED. Our own idea is the depression was chiefly responsible for this extraordinary revolt. Pro hibition being a part of the social and economio structure, of the post-war boom era, and upheld by three consecutive Repub lican administrations, naturally suffered from the political revo lution, just as President Hoover suffered. And the repeal movement was greatly aided by having the power and prestige of the Boosevelt administration behind it. This support gave the cause a respectability, the absence of which, for over a de cade, was its fatal defect. As has been previously stated in this column, repeal solves one problem, only to introduce another one, almost as serious. The' country will need the best ability and finest intelligence it can produce, to prevent abuses and excesses of the privilege now granted ; and demonstrate that under the new dispensation, the cause of true temperance, will not be retarded, but will be ADVANCED!

The farm revolt In the Mid-West Is underway. Violence marked tha open ing day. In Iowa a mad farmer shot a freight train In the caboose, and the nation will soon know what effect the vandalism had on the price of oaU. ... Report from upstate Indicate that the hitch-hiker, who used to rote and beat the kind-hearted autolst who helped him on his wet and weary way, la now being robbed and beaten by the autolst. This hitch-hiker saved his railroad or bus fare from Oakland, Calif, to a lonely spot near Springfield, Ore., but the hospital bill will eat up all the profits. If this keeps up the highways will not be safe for either autolst or hitch-hiker. ... Klamath Falls object to the atate controlling liquor aales through state liquor stores. Klamath Palls desires to do the controlling themselves. The record of Klamath Palis In controlling the bootleggers, entitles the munici pality to this consideration. John Anderson of 0, Point towned Tues., selling ticket to a turkey din ner. John recalls the Cleveland De pression in South Dakota. A store keeper would not trust him for a 15c package of Arbuckle coffee, there was such a drouth of credit. Neither would Mr. Anderson trust your corr. for a ticket to the turkey dinner. ... After today any charming felony, committed by a youth able to worry about how his hair la combed, will not be regarded aa a Hallowe'en prank by the law. Neither will the offender be able to hide behind hi Paw's prominence. ... The current hubbub on the Uni versity campus, lack the fun and fury of a Jackson county olvll war, over nothing that really matters. It will also not require a grim tragedy, and a penitentiary, to subdue. Aa . near as can be determined after read ing eight columns of speeches in the Portland Journal, all the university professors are Irked, and allege they are the victims of politics and poli tician aa are we all. The embattled professors and politician use bigger and better words than were hurled hereabout. A popular phrase and academic mouthful la "carping con eorlouanoss". 'Carplng censorloua neas" waa called a "tantrum" by one aide, and "a meas&ge to the taxpayer" by the other, when bull-goring was the order of the day here. They are weak In their verbal mayhem. ... ANOTHER BUSTED BUBBLE San Bafael, Cel., Independent) Almost every day newspapers carry atorlea of tha heroism of person who give their blood to save the lives of their friends or relatives. Such an act Is com mendable but It Is not heroic The giving of blood I about as painful and dangerous as giving away your last year's hat. ... The very latest In "Infant sweaters" ara now on sale, and every Infant ahould have one. I. Coleman, the genial go silo attendant, (lf-you-don't-try-to-gel-away-wlthout-paylng) Is the latest to Join the rank of the "Infant awrntera", and la a shining example. HI sweating will be con fined to the economio side of the altustlon. Every Infant should have a "sweater" at a place of butlrwas, and one on the upper part of his chassis. ... FIND THE ANSWER? "Can all the so-called rsmedles, and the to-called "new ordera,' the stop ping of production,- the raising of prices, the wanton destruction of crops, the printing of stage money, the taxing of an already pauperised people for the planting of forest, the payment of 600 million dollars In miserly character-destroying doles, the building of 3 billion dollars of only semi-useful public works, the lending of billions to bankrupt rail roads, farmers, loan oompanle and banks, the entrance of the govern ment Into expansion competition with the already over-expanded public utility field, do anything except to more thoroughly chain the debtor to economic slavery and further enrich the creditor?" (Prom "Chaos oc SaciUlc" At Last, Tammany Is Beaten! THE victory of Fiorclla La Gunrdia, in the New York mayor nlfv flirtation ia tlin (rrpntnsl nftlitipil! rilnw Tflmmnnv hns suffered in 20 years. Not only was the. Wigwam's candidate last in the race, but the typically Tammany effort to split the field, and thus insure the Republican candidate's defeat, completely flopped. Tarn many'was knocked for a goal, from Coney Island to the Bronx. The victory of "Holy Joe" McKce, would not, as some sup pose, have been a victory for reform. McKee, individually is a fine man, but he was unquestionably a stalking horse for Tam many, and although a rebel in the Tammany ranks, would if elected, have been embarrassed by certain obligations to the Manhattan machine. He was actively supported, for example, by Boss Plynn of the Bronx, and aggressively opposed by such outstanding reform leaders as Samuel Seabury. La Guardia, 011 tho other hand, was Scabury's candidate, and was supported aggressively, by the progressive, enlightened elements of both the democratic and republican parties. La Guardia will enter offico without embarrassing obliga tions, and with a free hand to give Greater New York, for tho first timo in nearly a generation, clean, honest and efficient government. His platform unlike McKee 's, did not deal in generalities, but wag refreshingly explicit, favoring adoption of the Cincinnati charter rule, preventing any city employe from contributing to or receiving favors from any party candidate; abolition of county governments within the city; elimination of tho $'20,000,000 a year land condemnation racket; cleansing courts, ruled by political spoilsmen, and a business-like balanc ing of tho city budget. It also proposed a definite list of reforms in the city school system. JUDGING by his past record La Guardia is well fitted for such a gigantic task. Young, dynamic, fearless, and forceful, a veteran of the AYorld war, with two terms in congress, where he made himself felt, and secured valuable political experience, he, like Andy Gump, will wear no man's collar. He is a fighter and a DOER. His weakness will probably be, not doing too little, but trying, in a short time, to do ioo MUCH. A Roosevelt Defeat? FLECTION returns, as this is written, are not sufficiently complete to form a definite, opinion regarding their signifi cance, nationally whether they do, or do not, indicate a decline in Roosevolt strength. Of course the defeat of McKee will be interpreted as a rebuff for the Roosevelt administration McKee repeatedly stated such would be the ease, and there is no doubt, that Postmaster Gen eral Farley persuaded McKee to run. But there is little reality to such a claim. McKee's victory would have given tho Roosevelt administration an influence in New York city polities, which it does not now possess; but on the other hand, thousands of New York democrats supported La Guardia because they bclioved he had the best chance to defeat Tammany and corruption, and not because they are cool ing off in their enthusiasm for their party leader. On the direct NATIONAL issue there is no reason to doubt that New York city would support the present administration at least no evi dence to the contrary was developed by this election. Farley prestige, however, will surfer somewhat, in the coun try at large and a great deal in New York state. Nothing in politics succeeds like success. And aa mayor of New York, Signor La Guardia will see that M. Farley doesn't get to first base, as far as organizing a "little Roosevelt-Farley machine" in Manhattan is concerned.

Contrary to popular notions there la no characteristic evldenco of the presence of a tapeworm, except the finding of seg ments of the par asite, or the de tection of the eggs with the ml croacope. The host la as likely to lack any appe tite as he Is to have an Inordi nate appetite, and to b hearty and stQut as he Is to be wan and starved - looking, regardless of how mum or now little he eats. Cne sign that suggests the presence of s parasite, tho not necessarily a tapeworm or not Infallibly a sign of any Infestation, Is the finding of what doctors call eoslnophlUa that Is, a larger proportion of leukocytes taking the red stain of eosln In the blood specimen examined under the microscope. While this clue Is only suggestive It has pointed the way to the correct diagnosis In many puz zling cases. Particularly In cases of trichinosis. Is the finding of an Increased per centage of eoslnophl.es In the blooa examination a significant point. Trichinosis, also called trlchlnlasls Is Infestation of man by the trchlna worm, trichina spiralis or trlchlnella, a small round worm which passes Its entire life cycle In man, rat or hog. The adult worm la scarcely one-fifth Inch In length, but the larva of tri china penetrates the human stomach and lodges In the muscles of various organs. The Illness this produces might be mistaken for typhoid fever or for "rheumatism" It Is very pain ful and In some cases proves fatal. Trichina infestation occurs In many Instances from the unwise eating of raw ham or underdone pork which happens to contain the trichina lar vae. These can be detected In pork only by microscopic examination. The 7J. S. meat Inspection no longer at tempts to detect trlchlnoua pork. In stead the government warns all per sons not to eat pork or sausage made from pork, whether It has been offic ially Inspected or not. until It has been properly cooked. Of course thor ough cooking kills any trichinae or other parasites the meat may contain. Eight or ten days after eating the raw ham or underdone pork or poorly cooked sausage the victim comes down with fever, headache, and general symptoms which may masquerade as "muscular rheumatism.' Puiriness of the skin over the eyes and nose Is a suspicious symptom. When In such an acute, progressive Illness the mooa examination discloses eoslnophlUa. then It Is In order to procure a wee bit of muscle for microscopic exami nation to discover the spiral worms encysted In the muscle. A special harpoon Is used, and It obtains the wee speck of biceps or pectoral mus cle aa readily as an Injection of anti toxin or similar medicine la made Into muscle. We have now discussed the Big Six Intestinal parasites round worms. plnworms, the three tape worms (beef, pork and fish tapeworms) and the dread little trichina. There are othere but the Big Six comprise the lot for this country. What we are not saying about treat ment or remedlea will never harm anybody. We're going to leave It at that. The host of any intestinal para site who requires treatment had bet ter leave the treatment wholly In the hands of his own physician. strychnated Iron you prescribe?

Perhaps you take some quack bait too seriously. If and when acid osis actually occurs as a manifests- tlon of one or another Illness, the ; diet has nothing to do with it, Tbc. Means Tubercle. The local doctor claims I have T.B. and wants me to enter a sanatorium. : But a specialist I visited In said ' it is Just a run down condition and poor blood and he can cure me In four months . . A. K. Answer Which proves the "special ist" is a faker. No honest physician 1 or specialist ever promisee or guaran tees to cure anything. You had bet ter quit smart-alecklng and either follow the advice of your physician or consult another in whom you have confidence If that is possible. Now la the time to make up your mind whether you have tuberculosis. In cldentally. the abbreviation T. B means tubercle bacillus. The abbre viation for tuberculosis is tbc. Any physician or specialist who dismisses a patient with such a diagnosis as "run down condition" or "poor blood" ts a quack anyway. Send a stamped envelope bearing your nddress and ask for the monograph on tubercu losis. One-Hair of One Per Cent.
