We'll say this for the late Police Gazette although it was pink, it never was a parlor red. :o: There seems to be no doubt that the mad trapper in the Canadian wilds was mad about something. :o: Such is the cynical state at which we haTe arrived, that when a man actually smiles in face of adversity, we say he is punch-drunk. :o: Somehow, it always is a shock to a man to read his wedding announce ments fresh from the printers and realize his last hope of escape is gone :o: Accidents to ice hockey players are mounting up this year, and every thing points toward a nationwide popularity for the game in another year or two. :o: The former generation carried a buckeye in its pocket to ward ofi rheumatism. Later, some men took a big drink of liquor, but now, the proper thing is diet. :o: A Deepwater teacher, according to the World, asked a student to des cribe Lindbergh's feat. "I never saw 'em," the pupil replied, "but I can describe Charlie Chaplin's." :o: A little girl had heard a great deal about the "bumping system" on the railroad, and surprised her mother on day by asking: "Mother, who was President before Hoover bumped him?" :o: Germany's idea of international disarmament is for all nations to disarm to the point of being as weak as Germany is. Which would be a grand idea if we could always be sure just how weak Germany is. :o: We read of a place aown in South America where considerable money is to be invested in raising chim anzees and such-like for circuses and zoos. Locally, at least, that ought to throw a monkey-ranch into the de pression. :o: The Princeton scientists who are setting out to discover the cause of earthquakes are flirting with ser ious trouble. If they find out, they will be blamed by a good many peo ple for not doing anything to stop earthquakes. :o: Several severe correspondents out this way have confessed that if they had been on the jury that tried young Mr. Allen for murdering his sister's fiance, he would not have been ac quitted. On the other hand, we don't recall a murder in years that seem ed to give such complete local satis faction. Natural and Lifelike Special . . . I7c3li Either Upper or Lower Plates On Each Set D3.

Entire) Second Root The dove cf peace has been shang haied. :o: No one loves a quitter, but the acquitters seem to be fairly popular. :o: What this country needs is a suc cessful approach-forcing system to be used on bankers. :o: The old-fashioned man who died in the harness now has a grandson who dies in motor car wrecks. ;o: Alfonso, it is reported, has plenty to live cn the rest of his life noth ing like saving from a reigny day. :o: And after Stimson has gat through invoking the Nine-Power Treaty, he might try the Ten Commandments. :o: A writer cf popular songs has been kidnaped in England. It seems a gocd idea unless somebody ran soms him. :o: Jaran asks the Powers to restrain the military impetuosity of the Chi nese. Did any one say the Japs have no sense of humor? :o: When the business of the the coun try gets down to brass tacks, wonder if it will find itself sitting on the sharp end of a tack? :o: Still, one must remember that every dollar Europe borrowed was used to purchase thirty cents' worth cf American products. :o: Poor pacifist China may be in for a terrible licking, but she will get it over with a lot faster than big militarist Germany did. :o: A fashion note says spring ward robes for 1932 are designed for small incomes. Ah, ha. so Mister Gandhi isn't to be the only least dressed man , after all. :o: The Philippines wound up 1931 with a treasury surplus of $500,000. Is any further proof needed that the islands are not yet ready for inde pendence? :o: Well, there is at least one consol ing feature to this war: The poets don't seem to be able to weave any cf the Chinese or Japanese names into anything like rhythmical verse or thrilling song. :o: Mr. Rockefeller, not wholly on ac count of his age, but probably for other equally good reasons, has cut down his golf game to four holes a day. Mr. Rockefeller enjoys his golf, and likes to be out in the cpen. and it would be a real blow to him to make one of those four holes in one some day.

Roose velt against the proposal of Jouett Shouse that all delegates to the dem ocratic national convention be sent uninstructed will meet with the hearty approval cf every progressive member of the party, not only be cause it is without the province of the officers cf the national commit tee to dictate to the rank and file of the organization in matters of this kind, but because the idea is re pugnant to democratic principles. As is pointed out by Governor Rcctevelt, such a plan would take frcm the democratic voters control over their convention and would place the tame in the hands of pow erful leaders, who would he left to dictate the nominees in a "smoke filled hotel room" at an early morn ing hour. Democrats want nothing cf that kind to occur, and they will insist that the opportunity be not permitted. The millions of men and women who go to make up the democratic party v. ill not forget the long strug gle that hiis been necessary to place them in their present position of con trol. In the earlier days nominations for president and vice-president were made by caucuses of members of con gress and it was not until the time cf Andrew Jackson that this plan was abclialied end nominations were made by conventions made up of dele gates selected far this express pur pese. The delegates to these earlier con ventiens, however, were selected by ttate conventions, and it was a long time before the primary came into vogue, thus permitting the ones who e'e the final voting in the fall to say wlic should represent them in the nominating convention. The primary election al?o makes it possible for the members of the party to say for whom their representatives shall vote, thus making the party purely democratic, in practice as well as in name. . The democrats of the United States shall li'Vi consent to deliver over to the bosses the control of their party, permitting the latter to foist upon them any candidate for the presi dency whom expediency or selfish in terests may dictate. The process by which they have acquired their pres ent cemmanding position has been too leng and to Jab&rious to allow of them surrendering control at this time. They consider themselves as competent to say two or three months in advance of the convention who would best represent them in the position of chief executive as party- chiefs might be amidst the excite ment of the great gathering when trades could be made and the inter ests of the people sacrificed to the ambitions cf those controlling dele gations or votes. Men and women of the democratic party have confidence in their abil ity to properly manage that organ ization and they will insist upon do ing so.

How the tariff plunderbund has killed the Canadian market for Am erican goods and hurt heme labor is one of the most tragic chapters cf the whole story of the tariff trag edy. Between 1921 and 1931 Canada's 10 million people purchased from the United States goods to the value of $7,535,000,000 and sold to this country goods valued at $5,130,000, 000. Despite the fact the Fordney McCumber bill closed the door to 250 million dollars of Canadian goods, Canada reduced its own tar iffs on mctor cars, farm" machinery, etc. But when the Hawley-Smoot bill was enacted, cutting off another 150 million dollars of goods from the Am erican market annually, Canada re taliated. The Bennett government was elected on an anti-United States platform and his first official act was to put through the highest tariff in Canadian history. More than that, however, Canada is diverting her trade to Great Brit ain and the dominions. She is buy ing fruits from the "West Indies, Aus tralia and Africa instead of Califor nia and Florida. She is getting her textiles from Lancashire and her steel products frcm Sheffield. Her markets are closed to American prod ucts as our markets are closed to those of Canada. At the empire economic confer ence to be held in Ottawa next spring, Canada's Premier Bennett will lead the fight for a "closed cir cuit" trading arrangement between the dominions to exclude all United States goods. That virtually will mean the end of a market that pur chased 847 million dollars of Yankee products in 1930. What an economic traversty this countiy presents, voting billions of government credits to sustain itself while closing the door to markets eager and willing to consume bil lions of dollars' worth of the prod ucts of American labor every year! Net only 1,500 branch factories, but $1,500,000,000 cf American money, have hurdled the tariff wall into Canada since the Fordney-Mc-Curaber tariff law was enacted. Thousands of Canadian laborers now have the jobs that American work men once had supplying goods to the Canadian market. And thousands cf farmers are affected by low buy ing pewer in home markets. Think this ever as a business matter! Sioux City Tribune. :o: What with the scfa pillows, glass ware, postage stamps, embroidered pieces and all the other devices for thj proper observation of ihe great event, we predict several years will elapse before the last remains of the Washington B:-centcnnial of 1932 will have finally disappeared from view. - :o: Will Rogers says he likes Smith, Rocsevelt, Ritchie. Corner, Baker, Murray and perhaps others who may be mentioned later. It's not neces sary to force Z:lr. Rogers to' declare fcr anyone. All Mr. Rogers really demands is that he be a Democrat. :o: LOCAL NEWS From Monday's Daily Mr. and Mrs. H. D.
