We hazarded th guess, that President Roosevelt expected, heart a sound money man himself, what he feared in the future we opined waa NOT attack, from the conservatives but from the RADICALS, he was not worried by those who like Al Smith and Barney Barueh, intimated he had gone too far; but those who like Senatora Thomas, Pittman and Wheeler, were sure to ba convinced he waa not going far enough. In short we maintained, President Roosevelt as usual, was politically speaking, about tlx jumps ahead of his closest ad visers, waa playing a far deeper and more skillful game, than any of them suspected, and that by the time congress- assembled this truth would be clear to all. WELL ooiigresa meet lit a we Beet We aee ureeiselv umn five or six weeka ago, would be seen. Where It the radical bloo of free silver and greenback sena tors, who were echeduled to at6rra the White House as s66n as the congress eonvened, and backed by the descendants of W. J. Bryan' "embattled farmers" seeure radical inflation and print ing press money, or know the reason why. According to information from Washington, the reliability of which can not be questioned, they are eating out of the presi dent's hand. They are perfectly satisfied with what has been done, and have no intention Of demanding more. Instead of the president being in for a terrific confliot with a recaloitrant congress, unanlmoualy predicted if Roosevelt did not peg the dollar, and get the entire monetary issue aettled before the first of the year, expert agree the coming session will be as strong ly pro-ftoosevelt and aa generally harmonious, as the last one. ' Nc OT that the session will literally be a love feast, that the roaeat, tint nf th Bnosevelt honevmoon will actnallr re- 'turn. Under the circumstances such a miracle would be im jroaaible.

Q..E.DJ THE above result haa been economic conditions, NOT improved, it is true. But very reversal from bad times to good, as waa almost universally Mfti i Hl continue to be ailcnced It haa been done essentially head, amid all the turmoil, biding his time, and cleverly playing one extreme faction against the other. He secured the socnlled sound money conservatives in both parties, organized against radical inflation, and he satisfied the radical inflationists, in both parties, by granting tbem not what they wanted but MORE than the Al Smitha and Baruchs and certain coUege economists wanted them to have. CO politically apeaking everyone is satisfied. President Roosevelt won a party, but he has rendered a great service to his country For one can't emphasize the situation in thia country is still critical, that psychologically, we are still In a atata of war. The great outstanding need, under auch circumstancea, is a STRONG government, and a united people.

Our Yankea reader contribute her obaervatlon: A while ago I read In your column the query oi me woman Whoae go. montha-old baby refuaed to walk. The anawer you gave her waa good, t thought. Of course It la not Impossible that tha baby may have a men tal defect. How ever, fut a mother of fair experience am inclined to believe that the child tacka only th confldenca necessary to commence walking. I say thla because my eon refused to walk at th aga of 31 month, although ha waa advanced In talk ing and In hit general development and muscular atrength. H la cau tious by nature and Inheritance regular New England Yankee atockl you know ua, all right. Bo I be thought myself psychology waa needed. I took my belt one day and placed It around Ills middle. I then suggested to him that ha ba a horse which I would drive. It worked by appealing to hla Imagination and helping him overcome hie scruples against excessive display of leg mo tion. At first I gave him soma sup port, but altar a tew trlala I dropped my end of the strap and tha "horse" kept on. After a few peramnuiationa ha discovered the driver waa not with him. Did he atop walking? Not hel He ta four yeara old now. He ollmbed his first mountain a week ago. 8o I conclude, give a cauttaus child soma other Idea than himself to think of. and his confidence will da velop apace.' (E. K. M.) Our Yankee correspondent taacnes a good lesson In pedagogy. Th most eminent child psychologist could not do bettor. In the cas of tha l-month-old baby we suggested an examination to determine th hahy' mental capacity. W did not aay th baby waa men tally defective. Any baby that fall to walk by th lath month, provided the baby haa had Intelligent care and a reaaon- utile amount of encouragement with out too much urging or assistance, should be examined by the physician not alon for mental deficiency, but tlon. Those who C10T It SPENT It. In the process of spending, they made business better. When business Is good, people have the money with which to pay taxes. When It la bsd, they HAVEN'T. UST how does this borrowing- J spendlng-taxlng process o r k. Well, the government BORROWS tha money from those who HAVE it. Then It SPENDS It among those who haven't. When It note com due, It taxea those who HAVE, In order to get the money with which to psy what It has borrowed. IP YOU have followed this process correctly, you have noted that this b o r r 0 w 1 n g-spendlng-taxlng cycle hasn't changed at all th mount of money we have In tha country. We have Just aa much aa before. Not a single dollsr has been destroyed. All that haa happened Is that the dollars have been placed In DIFFER ENT HANDS, and in tha process ot placing them In different hands, bust, ncss haa been apceded up. So maybe, after all, we shall not ba ruined by thla borrowlng-spend-Ing-taxlng proceaa that at tha present moment looka ao omlnoua. M THERE'S a lot about money that we don't know. But there la something we're be ginning to think we do know: It lant the AMOUNT of money that mounts In making buslnesa better ao much aa the SPEED with which money moves. Th dollar that passes rapidly from hand to hand makea business bet ter for everybody. The dollar that la burled under the house or, more politely. In a eafe deposit vault make business better for NOBODY. So, apparently, the thing to do la to KEEP MONEY MOVTNO. If 'this borrowlng-spendlng-tsxlng process does that. It may be that It will WORK In restoring prosperity. 4 NEW YORK DAY BY DAY BY O.O.McIntyre VJ1W YORK. Pec. 36. Certainly no , , .

Farmers, Home Owners Urged to Study Sales Tax Carefully Before Action Tha following communication haa been tent out from Medford to rep resentative farmers, business men, home owners and tax payart through out the atate: ' We are addressing thla to you aa a home owner, farmer, property tax payer or representative of auon a group, asking that you ua your beat efforta to delay tha passing of any final Judgment or tha taking of any action againat tha present aalea and utility tax bill, which la now threat ened with a referendum, until a full opportunity haa been had to give tha bill and It effect on our property taxes a thorough analysis. While It Is of the greatest Import ance to protect -our common acbool from having to close their doors, It la of no less importance that we relieve our home owner, farmers, and other property tax payers from a com plete collapse. If our present prop erty tax system, which la more than 40 per cent delinquent now, does collspso not only th schools, but ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS OP GOVERN MENT ARB SUNK. As tha matter now atands we home owners, farmers, and other property tax payers bear mora than 07 pef cent of the whole coat of the elementary and high-schools. More thsn hslf of the people who send their children to our schools, own no taxable prop erty and consequently pay nothing AT ALL toward the support of the schools, pfom 40 per cent to 45 per cent of our total tnxes are for schools only. We do not ask that property ownera be excused from supporting schools.

It Is the statement of Evan Reamea of Medford. And It la tremendously true. It la good guidance for th liquor control commission In fixing it policy and making it appoint ments. Th atate' control of liquor taat must be kept far removed from pol itic. Men named for local poemon should not receive thalr appoint ment through political influenc. No nartv oraanizatlon should con cern Itself about tha oholc of per sonnel. No prospective candidate for office should be allowed by th com mission to exert influence in tha appointments. The distributing state stores ehould not be loafing places. They should be place where purchases can be made promptly and where there will be no discussions concerning pol ltlca or candldatca.
