The returning Roosevelt policies
give no pleasure to the republicans
but the democrats are not grieving
enough to hurt.

Gifford Pinohot, the Indepen
dent republican candidate for Gov-
erno| of Pennsylvania, has de -
dared there should bo no enforced
‘‘gifts” from office holders in the
coming campaign of Ills state.
Verily, the progressive republicans'
are nob exhibiting a lowly and
contrite spirit. They]have trouble
up their sleeves for the “Old
Guard” republican leader.
o
, Skorktary Hoover and Senator
Borah have joined in urging Con*
gress to institute a probe in tho
coal situation. It is, charged that
prices are unreasonably . high
through improper means. Though
republicans in name, this Secre
tary and Senator evidently think
more ol’ justice to tho people than
loyalty to the party. Such men as
theso are making the political
woathor chilly lor the republican
party.
O
The Republican House of Rep
resentatives propose to hold can!
didates strictly to regulations in
campaign, expenditures. It is re*
ported from Washington that can
didates for U. S. Senator must not
spend more than $10,000 each in
tlio primary and Representatives
are limited to $5,000 each.
The next grand reunion of Con-

there will be 5,000 veterans nnd
that 50,903 people will attend. The
army department has loaned 1,000
army tents for use of the camping
vetorans.

From the republican standpoint
the measures to become laws this
session are those that will benefit,
that party. The saldier bonus and
the tariff bills are on tho doubtful
list and will be held back until
after the primaries. The republi
cans are not certain of their posi
tion and the leaders will not per
mit a decision to be reached. The
progressives have become disa
