There li great rejoicing In Demo cratic ranks over the election results, while the Republicans feel like they had been hot for a deer, or con ducting a Diamond Jubilee. The Jackson county Democracy feels ao good they have not got around to feeling exultant over the defeat of Ben. Reed of Pennsylvania. All good Democrats are honor bound to give praise for this. Ben Reed baa often referred sarcastically to the manner In which the administration haa been playing Santa Claus with gov ernment money, therefore was an especial target of thejr wrath. They never saw Sen. Reed, nor heard of him, so there was nothing to dim tho ardor of their hating. Several Medford Democrats were rejoicing out of one side of their mouth, and cussing out of the other aide, they were eo cheered. Only about hall of the voters 01 Jackson county had strength enough to get to the polls on election day. Those who did make the effort nave all recovered. As yet there has been no report on the golf tournamenta or bridge games held on election day, when the voters should nave neen truggllng to get to the poll. It might Increase the Interest, If ar rangements could bo made for voters to shoot something, or catch a fish, while coming or going from the polls. The Idea of Just voting, with out any tun en route la repulsive. In this state, the outstanding achievement of the voters, was the slapping down of the political ambl. tlona of the Hon. Peter Zimmerman. It was Mr. Zimmerman's quaint no tion at first, to whack up all the wealth every Saturday night. Tills did not appeal ao well, ao he pro posed a atato bank. Under the scheme everybody would have a pipe extend ing from hla hip pocket to the bank. Another notable feat waa the elimi nating of Upton Sinclair, the Cali fornia rescuer of the people. The de feat caused Mr. Sinclair to thump a table, pound hla chest, - and do aome fancy socialistic ranting. Both Instances proved that the voter Is not aa crar.y as they seem. It will take about ten day tor the return of normalcy, and the bringing to light of all the reasons why the losers lost and tha winners won. This la due to getting the most votes, or not getting enough of-them. Now Is the time to forget politics, and return to the old pastime of condemning or complimenting the weather. DEFEAT is a better test of character than victory. It is not hard to carry off a victory with grace arid good taste. As one accepts the laurel wreath it is easy to be magnanimous. But it is not so easy in defeat. In addition to the natural disappointment, there is the matter of wounded pride, which cries for satisfaction. This is particularly true in the more vain and shallow natures. So few people can control it without betraying the real chagrin and bitterness they feel. Toise and magnanimity in defeat therefore is a test of true character. WE regret to note that in this test Upton Sinclair completely failed. In the campaign he demonstrated he could dish it out, but when the bad newa started to come in, he demonstrated he couldn't take it. Even before the final returns were in, yet defeat was certain, the Epic candidate refused to officially concede it. Instead of doing so and congratulating his victorious opponent, he rushed to the microphone to broadcast his hate and venom, charging his chief opponent and the opposition with every crime in the calendar. , TRULY a sorry spectacle. We had considerable respect and admiration for Sinclair at the outset of his campaign. His speeches were far superior to those of his opponents and he seemed to possess not only a real sense of social responsibility, but a nice sense of humor. That however was when Upton's campaign was going like a song. The moment the tide started to turn, and everything went dead wrong, the Epic .candidate changed his tone and manner completely.' He proceeded to reveal himself as a rather small, petty and vindictive egotist, who couldn't tolerate the idea of playing anything but the stellar role and denied this satisfaction, insist ed upon doing everything in his power to break up the show. UPTON SINCJA1R has gone Jar as a writer and militant radical. He may go farther in this direction. But he has shown in defeat, that he is temperamentally unfitted to hold high offico in this democracy of ours. No man can go far in public life who isn't fundamentally a good sport, He must be big enough to lake cither victory or defeat in his stride so to speak. Sinclnir has conclusively demonstrated he is NOT.- As a writer he may make millions more, but as a political factor in California or anywhere else, we predict the Epic champion is through. went, to the standard bearer of the strongest opposing candi date, i. e. to Franklin D. Roosevelt! INCREDIBLE t Mcbbe so. But stranger things have already happened on the surface of that cooling cinder that we call the earth. At the present writing nothing is stable politically, but instability; nothing certain, but uncertainty. Wait a year or so before you write down this bit of political crystal-gazing as completely "ga-ga". It might prove to be the bull's-eye of a prophet.

Q PEA KING of good sports, we would like to pay our tribute to Joe Dunne, who started out with such high hopes in the race for governor but had to be eontent with third place. We fought Joe hard during the campaign because we honest ly believed he was unfitted for the position to which he aspired. We know he expected to win, and know what a bitter pill such a decisive defeat must have been: Hut if he felt either chagrin or bitterness, he certainly did not show it. Just as soon as the results were known he promptly sent his congratulations to General Martin, his successful rival. Here they are : j ' . '. "To the winner goea my congratulations. X have fought a clean fight. I have made many friends and I hope to continue to serve my state aa a private citizen, doing my part always for old Oregon. "Good luck, General! May you suoceed in your desire to aid Oregon." , Nicely expressed and unquestionably sincere. Only one man could win in this gubernatorial race. Joe lost. But in defeat he showed himself to be a good sport and a good loser, and in addition to the friends he made among those who supported him, he csn add many among those who DIDN'T. Political Crystal Gazing ONE has often heard the question, "who will be nominated by the O.O.r. to opposo Roosevelt in 1936!" . We don't wish to put too great a strain upon the blood pres sure of our Republican friends, but this It AT be the answers "NO ONE!" 1 Before a hurry call is put in for the alienists let this be explained, . . JUDGING by election results throughout the country, the next congress is going to be far more radical than F.D.R. A drive has nlrcndy started to forco immediate payment of the veterans bonus. To this the president is opposed. Another drive for the Townsend old age pension plan is underway, and as the basis of this is a national sales tax, it is assumed the present adminis tration will bo on the other side. As time goes on, the main contest in Washington, D. C, therefore may not bo between Roosevelt and the Republicans so much aa between F.D.R. and the extreme LEFT wingers, of BOTH parties. Tariff fr-fr- 3 wfe Deficiency of vitamin A. vitamin C and vitamin O may account for various skin troubles. Here we are skating on thin Ice and we can not be too spe cific, for there Is not yet sufficient clinical evidence available to war rant arbitrary conclusions. In Pellagra which Is due to absence of or too little vitamin O, a peculiar der matitis Is one of the diagnostic features. This consists of roundish patches the size of a coin, reddish to purplish in hue, ap pearing suddenly, on the wrists or backs of the hands, both hands, not one, and the patches tend to coalesce and form a diffuse roughened area somewhat resembling an old sun burn. Some swelling or Irritation and Itching may be present. In the course of a few weeks the skin peels off much as after a sunburn. In some cases instead of this dry ery thema the eruption takes the wet form, with vesicles or small blisters or bullae, which break and leave fissures or erosions. In sections of the south where poor people subsist on a monotonous diet of corn pone, tea. pork and sugar or molasses, pellagral has been a serious problem and many victims have become helpless and had to have Institutional care. Besides the rash the disease la attended with gastrointestinal disturbances and often mental aberration or dementia. In any community certain Individ uals, for reasons of economy, or In fluenced by odd notions about health or by morbid or finical appetite, sub sist on a diet which, if not as poor tn vitamin G as the one described, Is deficient In vitamin O as well as other vtamlna. Probably remember. we are skating on thin ice these in dividuals owe their alleged eczema. psoriasis or dermatitis of one kind or another to the partial lack of vitamin O. My reason for offering this suggestion Is merely that I have seen reports of a number of cases where the administration of a bal anced combination of all the vita mins, in the treatment of some nu- trltional disorder, haa brought mark- i ed relief to an associated chronic, obstinate skin trouble such aa psorla- I sis or eczema. 1 At any rate no harm will be done by taking an optimal ration of vita mlns tor a few weeks as a sort ot therapeutic test. By optimal X mean rather more, of the vitamin than we assume is essential to prevent frank deficiency disease. Here are some good sources of vitamin O: Beet leaves, buttermilk, cream, fresh milk, condensed milk, evapo rated milk, fresh skim milk, dried milk (whole or skim), .spinach, grapefruit or Juice fresh or canned eggs, Ice cream, liver, kidney, heart, tomato, turnip, turnip greens, wheat embryo, canned salmon, white pota toes, pears oranges, lemons, cauli flower, carrots, cabbage cooked or raw, lettuce, gress, dandelion greens, apples, avocado, banana, fresh beef, yeast. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Raw Milk. I would like to drink raw milk. Is It safe to drink 's or 's? Do they remove the cream from it, or can you get It Just as It comes from the cow? Is a quart a day too much? Miss C. H. Answer I have no knowledge or the dairy firms you name. If you can have certified milk, that la al ways the purest, and safest any where. Nothing la removed from the milk. A quart a day is not too much. Raw milk from tuberculin tested cows Is often quite pure and whole some, but you should have your own doctor's op local health officer's ap proval of any milk other than certi fied. If In doubt about milk, I think It Is better to bring it to a boil for one minute than to pasteurize to kill the disease germs In It. Alum, Any chance that aluminum sui phate may cause cancer or other diseases? If so, in what manner Is it absorbed into the human system? W. E. R. Answer Alum causes no such dire disease. You have been reading some of the propaganda peddled by the renegade dentist who calls hlmselt "Doctor" and makes gullible folk Imagine he is a physician. Neither alum In making powder nor aluml num kitchen ware causes any dis turbance of health worth thinking about. (Copyright, 1934, John F. Dille Co.) Ethel Xjevey, the former Mra. George M.

O. Mclntyre y.- OUCH an uteome we admit is i Stranger things have happen not probable, but it IS possible. :iencd in polities; and far stranger things are happening all over the world. Upton Sinclair was beaten in California, but considering the terror aroused and his political vulnerability, he polled a TKKMKNDOUS vote. Unless economic conditions improve materially there will almost certainly be a Third party formed to contest either Democratic or Republican rule in 1036. Under such circumstances, it is not so fantastic to foresee the possibility of a coalition of the democratic and republican parties throughout the country somewhat similar to the coalition that was formed in California. Tn that state prominent demo cratic lenders, flocked to the standard of Governor Merriam, stnnd nt republican, who under normal conditions would have represented nil that the party of Jefferson detests and distrusts. NEW YORK, Nov. 8. Manhattan's darkest and most glowering strip la the scabrous section of West 53rd thut crosses Broadway between 7th and 8th avenues. Due to the elevated, the eun never shines there. Most of the out moded buildings seem to be tee tering on the edge of horror. There are halla with faint gas blobs and rooms -for-rent where Kkfci. only the doped could sieep. so fierow is the El and surface car clatter. At night furtive shadows move among the elevated pillars. Also prowling cats, hooded crone who scavenge the garbage tlna. thin coughing men with pasty faces, luminous eyes. Once and maybe still It was re putedly the biggest mid-town depot for the dtug peddlers Ladles who patrol the pavements turn off there quickly when they spot suspicion men with black derbies. Dice players go to the hallways for tip-off slips to floating game locations for the night. I The basements, too, are fearsome j looking, niched with kindling, ccal; and tee shops. Yet with all the de-1 pressing fungi. It is too close to Broadway's garish splash to be the scene of any notable crimes. A sud den scream would bring the law In a Jiffy. The police call It "the swamp.' Above 53rd on Broadway, Automo bile Row is atil holdlnc forth. Not as go-getting as It waa, but bnsk enough for the times. The auto sales man was once the faahlon plate of the White Way. He lunched in the showier cafes and waa a Oood Time Charlie of the cabarets. In the chang ing order, the auto salesman has ac quired eedateness of dress, deport ment and domesticity He Uvea in Kew Gardens, Forest Hills, Jackson Heights or the like. And Is a sucker for the neighborhood movie. No one has humanized music, from barn flddllngs to grand opera, aa his Slgmund Spaeth. Aa the radio's tune detective he haa flushed out the ma jor fllchlnga from the masters by modern composers and always good humoredly. He haa written books on barber shop harmony and revived "The Man on the Flying Trapeze." He haa lectured from coast to coast, broadcast over radio and appeared in movie shorts, to simplify classics and meke them understandable to the average man. Oay Paree, from an American view point, continues Ita dither Into dll drums. For those who loved the old haunts, there Is no balm in Gllead. Clro's has long since pulled down tne corrugated Iron shutters and now its bitterest rival, the Cafe de Perls, Is closed tight.

SOMEBODY has dug up the fact that It la legal to give away pretzels with beer in Oregon, but ILLEGAL to give away potato chips. Why? Goodness only knows. If all the absurdities In all our laws were got together In one book, it- would be SOME volume. QTILL, there may be a reason. u The Bend Bulletin assures us, in all seriousness, that the Deschutes potato has distinctive NUTTY flavor. Possibly the powers that be reason that enough nutty propositions are being foisted onto the public as it Is, without adding any more. QPEAKING of Deschutes county's hj potatoes, the Bulletin says; "Shallow eyes, tissue-paper skin and regular shape make them bo easy to peel. When baked, they have a snow-white, fluffy body, with i distinctive nutty flavor. Well, that's consistent. You've prob ably noticed that people with shai' low eyes and thin skins are apt to be a little nutty. So why not potatoes? yOU may have noticed this ais- patch from Denver: ' "A crowd of about 300 men ano women who were driven out of tne city this morning when they at tempted to PREVENT WORK on fed eral employment relief projects here reformed this afternoon at the civic center In the heart of Denver. Police reserves were Immediately called out to preserve order." nnHAT Is to say, a mob gathers in M, Denver, one of the country's most attractive cities, to STOP honest people who would rather WORK for what they get than have it handea to them as a dole by the reliei authorities. This certainly is getting to be a nutty world, Isn't it? Smallest Church In I'se DODGEVILLE, Wis.

My standing as teacher was good and the statement Z gave him was accepted by the college.

THIS CHANGE Helps Children Intestinal irritation in many growing girls and boys can 6e traced to one mistake. Are you making this mistake with your children? The "liquid test" will tell. What is this "liquid test" they talk about?" ask mothers. Just this: a simple way of finding out if anv boy or girl with irregular or insufficient bowel movements is in need of relief, or is getting the wrong treatment. Doctors urge a liquid laxative for children. The child who has been convalescing in a hospital will often come out with bowels working like a well-regulated watch. Hospitals give children a liquid laxative of suitable ingre dients, suitable strength, and ia suitable amount. Tho Proper Treatment Give that sluggish child a liquid laxative containing senna (a naiirnlaxativc). California Syrup of Figs has the right amount for children's use, and this rich, fruity syrup docs not upset them. Just give any headachy, bilious child a little of this gentle laxative when constipated, and a link less iffosc is repealed until the bowels seem to lie moving regularly and thoroughly without need of help. How to Begin Stop all use of mineral drugs, whether they are salts, pills, tab lets, or "candy" form, h.ven once a month is too often to give anv child a cathartic strong cnouah for adults. It is not wise to give laxatives of adult strength to a child, just be cause you give them less frequent ly or in less amounts. So, get a bottle of California Syrup of Figs from your druggist, and start toniahi, if your child is constipated, giving a good, cleans ing dose. Repeat if necessary, giv ing a little less each time. That's the secret of this treatment gradually reduced dosage. When you change to California Syrup of Figs instead of harsh medicines, you'll risk no more violence to your child's appetite, digestion, and general physical condition. You'll have a safer and more satisfactory result, too. THE "LIQUID TEST" This is the way to relieve occa sional sluggishness, or constipa-' turn in a child of any age: First: select a liquid laxative of the proper strength for children. Second: give the dose suited to the child's ngc, and condition. 1 hird : reduce the dose, if repeated, until the bowels are moving with out any help at all. An ideal laxative for this pur pose is California Svrup of Figs which every druggist keeps in stock. Be certain thai it is the gen uine product, with "California" blown in the bottle.
