MILTON C. GARBER
THE DOLLAR AND Till: DEMOCRATS.
Looks like a good corn crop and a good wheat
crop, loo, garnished with a few million tons of alfalfa.
Goose hangs pretty high.
The news that Jim l'atten lost a million and a
half dollars in an attempt to corner the wheat market
occasions no surprise. All gamblers lose. No one
ever (knew of a gambler really profiting by In- Rains,
and very few of them hold onto their winnings.
WHOSE CHILD II 'ILL IT BP-T
Some day a crushed and bleeding little form will
be carried from the pavement, and a mother with
breaking heart will see it borne into the house,
emerge again only when the white hearse comes
liear it to the silent city on the hill. Some day, maybe
not today, nor tomorrow, nor next week, but possibly
soon, an Enid child will give up its little life as a sac-
rifice to the speed mania of the drivers of automo-
biles—unless the senseless practice stops.
Why is it that some men who appear to have av-
erage common sense in other matters, who can talk
intelligently, act properly, and appear normal in their
general demeanor, seem to suddenly lose their reason
and their regard for the law and the rights of their
fellow beings the instant they get hold of the steering
wheel of an automobile? There are a number of such
men in I'.nid—entirely too large a number.
The police have tried to stop the practice of
speeding, luries have in practicalk every instance
"stuck" the driver of automobiles which have collided
with other vehicles or with people, and a well-seated
prejudice has developed against automobiles in gen-
eral. among a large proportion of the public. Not-
withstanding, the joy riders continue on their foolish
way.
Most speed maniacs seem to imagine that they
are making an impression upon the onlookers. They
are; but it is a different kind of an impression than
the maniac imagines.

should stop before fatalities occur.
ONE REASON ll'HY.
Still another democratic member
Assembly of Illinois has told how he "rose above !
party" to vote for a republican for United States scn-j
ator. This time it is a state senator. The three dem
ocrats who had previously told, miller oath, how land
for how much) they had risen above party, are all
members of the lower Jiouse. In the original confes j
sion, made by Representative White, it was stated that
White received ifiooo for the ascent. The same sum
was named in connection with Representatives Link
and lleckemeyer, who voted for Lorimer, not the can-1
didate of any party, against Stringer, the candidate of j
their own. Senator llolstlaw has now testified at
Springfield that lie was paid ifj.soo for rising above
the democratic parly in the same way, flying in the
same direction and reaching the same altitude. There
is nothing to indicate that the senator got any higher
above the party than either of the three representa-
ives who rose above it, yet he got more than double
the amount paid to cither of them for spreading his
wings and taking the flight. In this era of aerial nav-
igation and rising above party, we may yet find it nec-
essary to enlarge the powers of commerce commissions
to regulate aerial mileage rates and prevent discrim-
inations.
It was only a coincidence, of course, that, at the
time Mr. Lorimer was making his plea to the senators
at Washington, protesting his innocence, and denounc-
ing Senator Hopkins, nominated by the republican
party and elected by the people of Illinois, llolstlaw
was idling tile grand jury of Sangamon county how
much he was paid to desert Stringer and vote for Lor-
imer. More flimsy and inexcusable even than his
plea that this exposure is a conspiracy to ruin the new
bank he has opened in Chicago was Lorimcr's attack
011 Hopkins, the nominee of his party and really the
elected senator. This was had taste as well as lad
policy. Hopkins should lie immune from attack by
Lorimer in any defense Lorimer may make of him-
self. It appears that Lorimer, in order to reach 1 lop-
kins. led his senatorial colleagues through long, dim
labyrinths of Illinois politics, which heaven knows are
way, he was one of the oddest char-
acters I ever saw. lie lived in one of
