AFTERMATH.
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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
