THE SPELL IS BROKEN.
The magic of Wilson’s name seems
to have lost its power in the House
of Representatives. In spite of an
urgent letter from the white house in
favor of the bill to "scuttle” from the
Philippines. The democratic caucus
revealed twenty-eight recalcitrant
members who will not support the
measure. The bill now seems to be
on the rocks. Time was when Wil
son’s nod swayed all action on capitol
hill—but that was before the pie had
been distributed and when the demo
cratic majority was so huge that it
required - widespread revolution
- evercome it. With a more slendor
margin now and with a keener sense
of responsibility now that a national
election is at hand, congress show'-,
a disposition to do a little thinking
^ on its own account. We wish there
might be more of it. No matter who
is president, it is no good condition of
affairs when the white house can
draft and pass all the legislation. The
constitution is a sturdy and useful am!
sensible document in spite of the ef
torts of those who seek to make ii
appear that our progress is hampered
by constitutional impediments. The
three divisions into which the fram
ers of the government separated the
national machinery should be kept
apart, as the fathers intended. If it
requires a political revolt within a
party to emphasize this fact, then
we welcome revolution, no matter
where it occurs.
FOOD FOR THE MIND.
Never was there a time in the his
tory of this country when the peopl
at large were as constant and invel
erate readers of newspapers as the;,
are today, and this is especially sc
in the matter of newspaper adver
tising.
People who a few years ago would
hardly look at an advertisement nov
‘ digest every word in it. and they do i'
with a purpose. The human mind i:
broadening and expanding and be
coming more liberal. It demands food
and particularly that class of food
that conserves the financial interests
of the reader. And the well worded
advertisment appeals directly to
every well balanced mind. It point.
the way to economy.
And the wise business man advei
tises accordingly.
NEW MAN AT THE HELM.
A Mr. Kramer of Montana, ha;
ben selceted to succeed the lamented
Tom Pence as secretary of the demo
cratic national committee. Pence it
lamented more and more every dav
as the difficulties of the administra
tion multiply and become more evi
dent. Pence was a politician and a
diplomat than whom there was no
body in the party who was then
whomer. As an official explainer!
Pence was in a class by himself—
and the democratic party never in
quired such a man more desperate
ly than it does—and will this year.
A Bryan newspaper takes some
satisfaction in recording that the
Commoner has “enough money to
make himself comfortable for the
rest of his life.” He will therefore
feel free to make Mr. Wilson very
uncomfortable for the rest of his
term.
Homer S. Cummings of Connecti
cut, enters a polite disclaimer to the
reports that he is to become chair
man of the democratic national com
mute. This may prove to be one
place where the administration will
have to resort to conscription.
The New York “World’s” insis
tence that the republicans also nomi
nate Wilson indicates that the
“World” knows the only way it is
possible for Wilson to be re-elected.
A New York man is said to be dy
ing from inability to yawn. Has any
one of those off again, an again, O'o
dent's German notes to him?
The pursuit of Villa seems to be
one of those off agin, on again, Ob
regon again affairs.
POLITICAL GOSSIP FROM WASH
INGTON.
Washington. May 10—(Special Cor
respondence). One of the signs cf
the times in the House is the fact that
usually when that body is in session
in committee of the whole, the repub
lican members outnumber the demo
crats. Faithful count of this has been
kept time and time again by employes
and different members. On the whole,
the average attendance during this
session has been largely in favor of
the republicans. When a roll-call
> comes, the democrats pour over from
the office building. This means that
the demaerotic members have little
time to attend to the public business,
hut are in their offices handling cor
respondence. in an effort to save their
political scalps from the people back
j home. With the almost certain pros
! peet of the next house being republi
I can. democrats in close districts ar^
' having not only very busy, but anxi
| ous days, just about this time.
A few months ago the president dc
11ermined to “get next" to Tammanv
! nail by appointing one of their
favored braves as postmaster of New
York. The independent democrats of
the metropolis made a great outcry
1 and the president deferred action. In
characteristic fashion he has now
tried to dodge the issue by naming a
member of the state senate who has
friendly relations to Tammany, but
the senator refuses to be the goat.
He will not take the postmastership
and the president is once more placed
I between the devil and the deep sea.
in either event he loses. He lacked
i for nerve to go through with a
i -traight Tammany appointment, and
i if he now takes someone who is ap
j proved by the independents, he will
| fail to placate Mr. Murphy.
Wilson headquarters are already
' open in New York. The administra
leaders recall that it was not unt 1
August, four years ago. that they got
their party machinery in working or
| der and this year they intend to be
; forehanded. But in 1912, the result
would have been the same even if
| the democratic headquarters had
j never been opened at all. That year
j the republican division insured Wil
son’s election. This year there is no
premium high enough to insure his re
election. They may open headquarters
now and run them on a three-shift a
dav plan until election time if thev
wish but it will make no difference.
“I believe the provisions of this
bill are a great advantage to the boot
and shoe industry of the United
States,” said Representative Peters,
democrat, of Massachusetts, during
the debate in 1913 on the Underwood
bill. Experience proved him a poor
prophet. Department of Congress
figures show that imports of shoes
increased 70 per cent for the period
October, 1913. to July, 1914, compared
with a similar period under republi
can law. October. 1912, to July, 1913.
The present tariff placing shoes on
the free list, during the few months !
of its operation, had already stimu
lated shoe importations and its effect
would have been seriously felt by in
roads made in our home market hal
not the outbreak of the present war
stopped foreign shipments of shoes.
"It looks to me as though the pres
ent administration is looking for an
excuse to get our troops out of Mexi
co,” said a southern democrat mem
ber of congress to a group of col
leagues. "I venture the prophecy
that the day such a step as this is
taken, it means the end of our party
in power. The people of this country
are growing weary of the Mexican
policy of the president, and while no
body wants war, yet I believe the
sentiment is in favor of ending the
murder and looting that is taking
place in that revolution-ridden coun
try. The fact that during the past
few weeks vast quantities of ammuui
! tion have been shipped to Carrenza
I forces will not be pleasing to the
American people. I do not think
j there is much difference between
Villa and Carranza and I think the
administration and the people of this
country will find it out.”

HORSE SENSE.
A horse that refrains from eating
is using the horse sense method of
curing itself of some intestinal trou
ble. Nature sometimes fails, so take
no chances but go to the aid of na
ture as soon as you see something
wrong with your horse and give it a
dose or two of B. A. Thomas Stock !
Remedy. If it does not respond at
once, this medicine costs you noth
ing and its just as sure with cows
or sheep. We give you your money
back.—J. J. SLOMINSKI. '
PLANTING POOR CORN. THICKER.
On account of the condition of the
. seed corn this year there may be a
tendency to plant thicker than usual
to make up for poor germination. The
College of Agriculture says that this
is a doubtful practice. Often the ger
mination is better than expected and
too thick a stand results. It seems
better to use corn that will germi
nate well if such is to be had in the
community and then plant only the
usual amount.
