S STEDrDRD 3TSIE TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRID3Y, TTJGTTST TO, T931 PXGE ITTNTJ " PARTY FACTIONS Present Situation of Party in Power No Exception to Old Rule Harmony Ef forts Made by Leaders By BYRON PRICE Chief of the Bureau, the Associated Press, Washington Development of nelent factional ism always 1 a prime danger to dominant political parties, and the present situation of the Democratic oarty la no exception. In several Important states Demo cratic prospects In the 1034 campaign have been complicated measurably by the appearance of factions where six months ago all seemed harmonious. One result Is that, justifiable or not. the Republicans are hopeful to day In localities where six months ago they saw no nope. Senatorial candidacies have, In most Instances, provided the cause of division, or else become the ve hicles for deep-seated disputes over local party control. It Is to the harmonizing of some of these situations that Democratic Jeaders now are addressing major at tention. Upon their success may de pend In lague measure the party strength In the next session of con-srees. To date the results have been rath er difficult to analyze. Democratic national headquarters has followed the usual course and an nounced publicly a complete neutral ity as between rival senatorial candi dates. ' Yet, in several Instances, local poli ticians have clalced definite admin istration support, have hinted very broadly to the voters that Mr. Roose velt wanted them nominated, and : have gone unreproved from Washing- i ton. ' I In Ohio. West Virginia, Indiana, Texas and a number of other states, candidates have been put into the field under circumstances which, on their face, set up a presumption of administration favor. With Farley's Blessing In the case of West Virginia, Na tional Chairman Farley even went so far as to say In a publio statement that candidate Clem Shaver was one of the original Roosevelt men, and would. If nominated and elected, be a source of administration strength In the senate. Such a direct declaration by a na tional chairman Is unusual, and It be comes even more surprising when it Is recalled that Mr. Farley also Is a member of the Roosevelt cabinet and recognized everywhere as the po litical spokesman of the White Hnise. His action will Increase greatly na tional curiosity over the outcome of the West Virginia nomination con test. In Indiana the candldat who posed as the "Roosevelt candidate" was not nominated. In Texas the reverse was true. Of course, once nominated, every candidate immediately affirms his support for the administration, but it will be Interesting when the nomi nations are complete to see how many really owed their selection to "word from Washington." Factions Plague "Iim" It la notorious that the party in power has, normally, far more fac tional difficulty than the party out of power. The Republicans had plenty of It when they were the majority party. In each of the four instances when Republicans were voted out of the White House since the civil war party split had a good deal to do with the party deieat. Of course the Republicans are far from united now, but that la an old story. The noteworthy thing about . the present Democratic factionalism Is that It disproves any presumption that the party has been reunited completely and freed of Internal dis sension under the leadership oi Mr. Roosevelt. NOTHING IN LIFE - OF SILVER MINER DENVER, Aug. 10. J?t The silver mines of the Rocky mountain west. which cheered for "Roosevelt, silver and Santa Claus" last December when the president boosted the price of sil ver ore to 644 cents an ounce, will not be affected by the president's executive order Thursday, nationaliz ing silver at 80 01 cents per ounce. Silver ore was specifically exempted In the new executive order, along with certain other classes of silver. The president's new order was in terpreted today by Jesse P. McDon ald, of Leadvllle. president of the Colorado Metal Mining association, R, P. Raynolds, manager of the Ameri can Smelting and Refining Co. prop erties in Colorado, and others as In tended primarily to end speculation in the white metal. The miners will keep right on dig ging for gold and stiver, McDonald said. "They will get their 64 cents an ounce for silver at the mint, and that's what they're interested In." The Increase in silver ore price, ef fective since last December, has not stimulated sliver mining in Colorado as much as was expected then, Mc Donald said, because of the low price for lead and rlnc, with which silver usually is found in this state. "The only way that the silver min ers might be affected," said Raynolds, "In my opinion, would be if the nat ionalized price of sliver were to be Increased above the 60.01 cent figure, and the present 64 cent price for newly-mined ore. In that case, the miner, presumably, would be allowed to take advantage of the higher price." City Marks Century. LORAIN, O.
