Coolidge upon that record; that, on the other hand, the record will speak for him and for his party in unequivocal and emphatic terms.
That means simply that the Democratic campaign must center all its hopes upon mere personal attack, aimed at members of the Republican administration; and the Democratic party, aided by the radical group, is laying its ground for this in the "investigations" that are going on.
As clearly as if the Democratic campaign text book had already been published, the Democratic campaign tactics are revealed.
It requires a very low estimate of the intelligence and integrity of the American people to believe that the voters of the United States are going to be influenced by a campaign of that sort. It will be made, for the Democracy must "go through the motions," but unless all percedents are to be disregarded, it will be what the Democratic leaders show the strongest signs of expecting it to be—a campaign of dismal failure.
REFUNDS OF TAXES
Thirty million dollars will be distributed by the Government to approximately 100,000 taxpayers in Southern California during the next six months on account of refunds of overpayment of taxes for the last five years in connection with the ecent community petty income uling and the inheritance tax decision.
Collector of Internal Revenue, Rex B. Goodcell announced yesterday that checks for all of these refunds will be drawn at Washington and sent to his office for distribution. Careful check will be made in the local office before the checks are presented to taxpayers to ascertain if credits have already been taken on income pay-
ENGLAND'S ORANGE ORCHARD
Within one hour's travel from London, with the temperature hovering around the freezing point out-of-doors, a scene of tropical beauty awaits the visitor to Messrs. Rivers & Sons Nurseries, at Sawbridgeworth, in Herefordshire, England. Here, for nearly one hundred years, citrus fruits have been cultivated under glass.
Through the courtesy of the managing director, the writer had the privilege of being shown the huge acreage covered with glass houses, which number forty, and cover an average of several hundred feet each, the temperature maintained in each house varying according to requirements.
Within one house a miniature orange grove gave thoughts of the "Golden West." These trees were planted along the sides of the house and the branches trained up, covering the whole surface of the glass roof from which hung cluster upon cluster of luscious golden fruit, and some of the trees, although small in size, bore probably half a box of delicate fruit.
The oldest trees in this house were originally imported from Saint Michaels, about eighty years ago. Among the varieties of oranges contained in this house are to be found Embiguo Navels, Late Valencias and St. Michaels. Lemon and grapefruit trees are also seen here. The foliage is of a bright, clean color, which is due to the fact that the trees are thoroughly cleaned by hand every year, when every leaf is processed individually and in addition to this the trees are sprayed with water twice every day during the summer months. There were approximately 2,000 orange trees contained in these glass covered enclosures.
Another interesting feature is the fact that these trees have never received any fertilizer, with the exception of the regular sanding-in of leaf overpayment of taxes for the last five years in connection with the eccent community popety income uling and the inheritance tax decision.
Collector of Internal Revenue, Rex B. Goodcell announced yesterday that checks for all of these refunds will be drawn at Washington and sent to his office for distribution. Careful check will be made in the local office before the checks are presented to taxpayers to ascertain if credits have already been taken on income payments or if the taxpayer is in arrears.

There is practically no possibility of the nomination of any Democratic candidate who will personally be more acceptable to the voters of the country than Calvin Coolidge. Mr. Coolidge is not the "good fellow" type of man, not a "mixer" as common speech phrases it; there is about him practically nothing of the style of candidate who can go about "making himself solid" with the voters.
The people believe in his downright honesty, his thorough devotion to the public welfare and his sincere purpose to perform the duties of his high office with unswerving fidelity. There is no Democrat in sight of whom the voters believe that as they believe that as they believe it of Calvin Coolidge. So far as the personal factor enters into the problem, Mr. Coolidge has no formidable rival.
Nor has Mr. Coolidge anything to fear from the record of the party which he represents during its present term of power. The administration of government by the Republican party, since the fourth day of March, 1921, stands an open book, on every page of which is written evidences of increasing public welfare. No one can say that every desirable thing which has come to pass since the Republican party took power has come to pass because of that taking of power; but, so far as results in the betterment of business and industry have had their origin in governmental policy carried out in legislation and administration, the American people recognize and acknowledge that those results come from the wisdom of the people in putting government in the hands of the Republican party.
The record is so nearly one-sided, the credit so distinctly recorded, that the Democratic party necessarily recognizes that it can not attack Mr.
that record; that, on the record will speak his party in unequivocal terms.
simply that the Design must center all its mere personal attack, wars of the Republican and the Democratic radical group, is laid for this in the "inattention" are going on.

MOS OF TAXES
dollars will be dis-Government to ap-1000 taxpayers in Sou-l during the next six count of refunds of taxes for the last five months with the eccentric income uling and tax decision.
Internal Revenue, Rex announced yesterday that of these refunds will washington and sent to distribution. Careful made in the local office stocks are presented to certain if credits have taken on income pay-on his current taxes.
"The distribution of $30,000,000 in the ten counties of Southern California cannot fail to exercise a benefi-cient effect on business in general and tend to make even more staple the dependable and ever-increasing prosperity in this section of the Country," said the Collector.
In presenting his survey of the refunds due in Southern California and the income-producting power of the local district, Collector Goodcell called attention to three facts:
That the ten counties of the Los Angeles District paid more income tar for the first quarter of the present year than any one of the following 44 States: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Deleware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington,
West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
That the ten Southern counties paid more income taxes for the first quarter of 1924 than two New York Districts combined; more than three Ohio Districts combined and more than the 12th Pennsylvania District; as much as the States Connecticut, Deleware, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont and Maine combined; $1,000,000 more than twelve Western States with a population of 7,340,160 and an area of 1,060,487 square miles, as compared with Southern California's population under the 1920 census of 1,423,699 and an area less than one-tenth that of the Twelve States.
That only New York, population 10,384,000; Pennsylvania, 8,700,000; and Illinois, 6,485,000 exceeded California with its population of 3,426,000 in the amount of income taxes paid by any State this year.
The "great unrest" that we hear so much about doesn't apply to tongues.
