Are you sure she knows about that a.10,0007 t The governor Is showing signs of running independent for Governor, He deslrea four years more of fight ing with his one bum appointment. The independent candidacies are swift kicks In the short-ribs for the primary system, and prove that the choice of the voters means nothing, as long aa the politically ambitious are equip ped with self-starters. Considerable time 'and money could be saved, and Just as good results obtained, by shak ing dice for the primary nominations (if a pair not loaded, can be found.) . Bales Tax collections in California for the months of April, May and June amounted to 13.410.848.08, ac cording to tho adding machines of the state treasurer.

The an nouncement from Salem yesterday, that the Governor is seriously considering throwing his hat in the ring, as another "Independent," has apparently aroused great local interest, and caused widespread speculation. We regret our inability to give our readers the "low down". We know no more about it, than anyone else who reads the newspapers. Our own guess is the announcement is one of those political contrivances known as a "trial balloon." No doubt Governor Meier has been urged by many of his friends to enter the guber natorial free-for-all, believing would have a good chance of victory. The Governor's health has greatly improved, he likes public life and would not be averse to another term. So why not send up a trial balloon? If tho reaction is favorable, "OK" the Governor will go. If it ISN'T, "OK" again he won't. . Either way no harm'will be done. THIS is the OBVIOUS explanation. Perhaps it is too obvious to be true. For there are many cross currents and under ground forces in this gubernatorial campaign, there are rings within rings and what might be termed the Meier ring is a very important factor. When anyone wishes to tell Governor Meier or his astute political aide, Henry Hanzen, anything about the subtleties of political strategy, they will have to get up mighty early in the morning. So it may be and this, too, is only a guess, that Governor Meier hasn't now, and never has had, any serious intention of being a candidate for a second such a possibility, had an entirely different purpose in view, namely: throw a scare into the toilers in the gubernatorial vineyard, and bring certain other perspiring gentlemen into line. Yes, that may be it. For it is entrance in the race, would destroy whatever chances the regu lar Republican organization has of putting over Joe Dunne. Those chances are dwindling rapidly enough as it is. With Governor Meier in the race, the G. O. P. regulars could as well close up shop entirely and save the money. So this much can be put down as CERTAIN. If this was merely a gesture a good natured bluff, designed to bring certain concessions from the Dunne camp, you can mark this down in your loose-leaf notebook, they will be made, and made pronto. ' IJOWEVER we may be misjudging the Governor. There may be nothing more in this announccment,'than what one who runs, may read. . In that CP.se what will happen? Will that trial balloon arouse sufficient enthusiasm, throughout the state, to persuade "Julius" to jump In. Our guess is, it won't. All in all, Julius Meier has been a good governor. Wo know in Southern Oregon he has many friends. We also know the right thinking and law abiding Tcople of this community will never cease to bo grateful to him, for-the loyal aid ho gave them, when that aid was so sorely needed. Without him and the state police, we dislike to think what might have happened in this section of the state, during the turbulent days of 1933. As far as this paper is concerned his service then will never be forgotten we shall never cease to be grateful for it and wo beliovc the people of this community, as a whole, feel the same way about it. But there is also wide spread feeling here, that if Governor Meier intended to run for Governor, he should have entered the primaries with the other candidates. There are three socullcd "independent" candidates in tho a fourth no matter how friendly they may feel toward him, to further confuse tho issues and befog the atmosphere at this late date. So in cither event, wo don't expect the Governor of Ore gon to run. But we do expect in fact we know, that this announcement that he MIGHT, has set the political "pros" scampering about this state, and broadcasting SOS calls, as they haven't scampered and broadcast in many a long Hay 1 NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.

TAKE A BREATHER, Primitive savages and plain people whose brains have not been addled by what passes as "physical culture" In Yankeeland, breathe more ef ficiently and have better endurance than wiseacre Americans gener ally have. Our chesty complex la un. physiological and unnatural and ought to be dis carded along with the toeing - out affectation of the past generation. Tho habit of costal or chest breath lng as almost universally cultivated in this country handicaps all who are addicted to It. Unless you are convinced you know more than I do about this breath ing business, you are eligible to Join the B. B. club. Members may take these letters to mean Better Breath' lng or Busier Belly, according to their alleged cultural proclivities. In any case the emblem of the club is a but ton everybody wears. lot that we are Joining the nudist movement, but Just between ourselves I'm for nudism or as nearly that as we can possibly approach. The Ideal of the B. B. club is to free the diaphragm. I estimate that not more than one out of every ten "well educated" persons know what. where and why the diaphragm Is. Members of the B. B. club excepted. It Is due to this popular Ignorance of the diaphragm that so many wise acres have had bad advice about or training in breathing. The diaphragm happens to be the chuckling muscle. Or if you can't. contain your chuckles It will give you a good belly laugh. The attempts of some people to air their strange Ideas about the diaphragm have given mine good deal to do. When you are fast asleep or com pletely anesthetized you breathe like a savage, which is to say naturally, with the diaphragm and belly, and not with the chest. When you are on parade, showing off, putting on airs, trying to he somebody else than yourself, register ing false emotions, you breathe with your chest. It is part of your bad education (bad physical education) that you have learned to keep re straint on the natural activity of the diaphragm and this, after years of bobbed her hair . . .

Tho drought, which made vast In roads Into food supplies, la beginning to be felt In homes from California to Massachusetts. Thrifty housewives have started buying against further price Increases. No actual hoarding has been noted In most major cities, but the larders are being filled. Leading national distributors of canned goods admit they are. buying in the open market, at a premium, because of general expectancy of higher prices and possibility of some shortages. One company Is buying on a 80 day supply basis now as against a previous policy of a 30 day supply. But It la the housewife, the United Press survey showed, who Is now most concerned about rising prices.

After this month, if you want one of these tools, you'll have to register It with the commissioner of Internal revenue, if you want one after Sep tember 34, youll have to get a spe cial order from the commissioner of Internal revenue, be fingerprinted and pay the price of the gun plus a sales tax of 1200. So, If you're a bandit and think you need a machine gun tn your business, you'd better accept this timely warning and get it right away, rT"HE government, of course, might 1 prohibit altogether the posses slon of machine guns. In that event, only criminals would possess them as law-abiding citizens would only obey the law while crlmi nals wouldn't. A lot of good people thing the government should pro hibit entirely sale and owneshlp of pistols, the idea being that If NO BODY had a pistol nobody could shoot anybody with a pistol. The effect of such a law, experi ence eaches us, would be to limit ownership of pistols to the criminal classes. A S TO machine guns, this writer, " whose opinion Is probably of no vast Importance, thinks the govern' ment might well make possession of such a weapon by other than a po lice officer first-hand evidence of In tent to commit a crime, and send all such possessors to Jail, What use would an ordinary, law abiding citizen have for a machine gun, anyway? GERMANY will vote next Tuesday on the question of approval or disapproval of Hitler's seizure of dic tatorial power. This question occurs: What would happen to a German voter if he voted AGAINST Hitler and Hitler found it out? fXTCTATORSHIPS may be all right 1- for those who want them, but how would you like to live in a coun try where they could take you out shoot you If you voted the wrong way and they found it out? npAKWG it by and large thla is a t pretty good country to live In In spite of all Its critics say to the contrary. GETTING back to Germany, Propa ganda Minister Goebbels de clares In a public address that the power of the Nazis Is everlasting that Is to say, that It never can come to an end. Poor boob I ' No man-made power ever has been everlasting, and none ever will be. If you doubt that, read history, AND. If you think a lot of the things we're talking so much about now, and arguing about, are NEW, read history. You'll find that NRA, under an other name, spread over pretty much of Europe In the middle ages, and back In the days of the Roman em pire they had a system of public re lief amazing, similar to ours of to day. AND youJI find. If you read care fully, that this system of pub lic relief, or dole, weakened the fiber of the Roman people and contrib uted to the downfall of Rome.
