That the body will deny Mr. Vare the privilege of serving as a mem ber seems to be a foregone conclusion, that he will appoint Joe Grundy to the vacancy. Mr. Grundy is a more unsatisfac tory Republican than Tom Heflin is a Democrat, and the qualifications he lacks for a seat in the Senate, if embalmed in print, would fill a large sized volume. Joe Grundy is president of the ennsylvania Manufacturers Associa tion and chief of the high tariff advocates. He is a big bluff, self-assertive. bull-dozing person, and his pugnac ious nature will no doubt lead him into a lot of loquaciousness on the floor of the Senate. But Just how he will answer the able, scholarly debaters in that body is still an other question.

Phone No. 20 PlattcmoutEi, Nebr. THE BRITISH-RUSSIAN PACT Great Britain, in resuming rela tions with Soviet Russia after a five year interval, is in much the same case as the United States. That is she also has large claims against the Soviet for debts incurred by previous Russian Governments, as well as claims for property of British citl zens seized by the Bolsheviks. Ou statesmen cite these claims as a rea son for not recognizing Russia, but Great Britain takes the opposite view. She believes the best way to collect them is to negotiate and the best way to negotiate is to exchange duly accedited Ambassadors who have power to act for their Governments So Great Britain's recognition, far from signifying abandonment of her claims, opens the way to a Bettle ment. That, however, fs only one objec tive of the Labor Government. It is even more interested in Russia's po tentialities as a customer for British goods. Russia is in the buying mar ket. The Soviet is founding new in dustries and rejuvenating old ones it is transforming agriculture by dis placing primitive tools with tractors and threshing outfits. A vast, semi- barbarous country is being adjusted to the Machine Age. Great Britain is in desperate need of markets for her products. What could be more logical than that the British should cultivate this power ful customer? The British have al ways been like that. It is their quickness to seize opportunities that is responsible for the Empire. In the present instance, an accord with Russia is vital because Russian pur chasers have already shown a fond ness for the American market and Great Britain hopes to lure them away before it is too late. In 1927 the United States exported goods valued at 64,000.000 to Rus sia. We did in that year more than twice as much business with Russia as we did in the average year before the war. Great Britain's exports to Russia, on the other hand, have dim inished since 1924, when relations were broken off. British exports of J62.000.000 In 1925-1926, dwindled to 148,000,000 in 1926-1927, and to $23,000,000 in 1927-1928. In the meantime, English importB from Rus sia increased, resulting in a trade balance markedly unfavorable to Great Britain. These figures illustrate forcibly why one of the first acts of Ramsay MacDonald's Government waa to ne gotlate with the Soviet, especially since by a 1918 decree the Soviet monopolized foreign trade. The de cree reads: "Transaction for the pur chase and sale of all products with foreign states . . . are concluded in the name of the Russian Republic by specially empowered representa tives." That means that the Soviet Government can, if it chooses, make Great Britain the preferred market for its purchases.

Virginia disgraced herself by go ing Republican last year. A cam paign of prejudice, religious intol erance, and downright lying, led bp Bishop James Cannon, Jr., resulted n a defeat of the Democratic ticket. Since that time, evidently, the vot ers of Virginia have been repenting n sackcloth and ashes, and the re sult of the last election was not un expected. Cannonism was repudiated. and Virginia went Democratic by a majority more than twice the size of that which carried it into the Re publican column in the presidential election last year. It was a big day for Democracy almost everywhere. Jimmy Walker was re-elected on a tidealwave, de cisively defeating three strong op ponents for the Mayoralty of New York. A negro Republican seeking a seat in Congress from New York City went down in defeat. Chicago's Judi cial election brought victory for a Democratic coalition ticket. Demo cracy repulsed a Republican drive to capture the Kentucky legislature, and in upstate New York there was a gain of two Democratic members for the lower house of the legislature. In municipal contests in Indiana Demo crats were uniformly victorious. All in all, it looks like there is still little life left in the Democratic party. Its obituary has been written many times, but it refuses to stay dead. :o: "I don't see why any person, man. woman, or child, wants to smoke," says Dean Esther Allen Gaw, of Ohio State University. Esther, dear, you evidently didn't give the habit a fair trial. ;o: . The Judge was told by the accused. that he was a soldier of fortune; SPECIAL PRIVILEGE UNMASKED If proof were needed that the tar iff has degenerated info a system of spoils that proof is furnished in the story of manganese. If proof were needed of the hypo crisy of the Grundys who profess to regard the tariff as "almost a relig ion," and evalt the protective policy as the shield and buckler of Amer ican DrosDerity. that proof is fur nished in the story of manganese. Manganese is used in the manu facture of steel; that is its biggest commercial value, though, of course, it had many other uses. Before the World War most of our manganese came from Russia. There was prac tically no production in the United : States. The war cut off the Russian supply. Known deposits in the Unit ed States were negligible in quantity and of inferior quality. The need of this metal, however, was so urgent that an intensive and extensive cam paign of prospecting was launched. Manganese was found in 21 states. The blue-sky boomers reaped a har vest, but the fact remains that an American industry, unborn in 1914, was a pretty promising stripling m 1917. The year we entered the war the United States produced 120,000 tons of managenese. That was far from sufficient for our steel Industry. Our production is still inadequate. Nevertheless, manganese is mined successfully in Montana. Nevada and Arizona by rea son, it is claimed of the duty of a cent a pound placed upon it by the Fordney-McCumber tariff law. Here in the truth is an infant in dustry. Greater efficiency... smoother operation and not one cent added cost One of the 15 sensational improvements offered by the 1930 "Red Line" Delco-Light is a larger and heavier armature. It brings you higher efficiency, smoother operation, longer life. And yet it doesn't cost you a single penny extra. And remember this is just one of the new improvements offered exclusively by the 1930 "Red Line" Delco-Light. Until youVe seen this mechanical marvel you will have no idea how much more we're offering. We're so en thus ia tic about this new plant that we can't talk about anything else.

TALKING THE TARIFF TO DEATH Even Senators who are regulars in the Republican ranks now say publicly that no tariff legislation will be enacted by the present Con gress. The differences between the Senate minority and the differences betwen the Senate minority and the House minority are deemd too great to admit of adjustment by compro mises in conference. It Is conceded, however, that if the garrilous Senate, by exercise of self-control, should now adopt a gentleman's agreement for the limita tion of irrelevant talk it at least would be able to pass a tariff meas ure satisfactory to a rather hetero geneous. :o: An addition to the Hall of Fame is the man held In Kansas City for a $509,000 fraud.
