WASHINGTON LETTER The most interesting political development of the past week has been establishment of the fact that the Bryans, William J. and Bro. Charles, are not playing square with John W. Davis. The temptation to Wm. J. to throw the election into the House and Senate, growing out of the knowledge that the Senate would finally elect his little bother Charles, has proven too much for one who knows that despite his repeated efforts to be President himself there is now no possibility of his achieving his ambition, but that he might put his little brother there and that if he did, the once Peerless Leader could exercise as much power as if he were President himself As Secretary of State to his brothers presidency, Wm. Jennings Bryan would be closer to being an actual chief executive than he can ever be in any other way. Out on the West Coast, accordingly, Wm. J. Bryan gave an interview urging "progressives" in states they believed La Follette could carry more easily than Davis to vote for La Follette and Wheeler, and, of course, to vote for Davis in states they believed he could carry. When they discovered this interview the friends of Davis took fright and took the once peerless leader to task so he promptly made a speech urging all progressives to vote for Davis But the Davis leaders are now asking each other While Bryan may refrain from any more public utterances of this kind, how much influence will he exert privately on those still susceptible to his leadership? There is evidence that Chas. Bryan is playing the same game. The "pressure of public duties as Governor of Nebraska" has been his excuse for not making a real, honest to goodness campaign for Davis. He has been called to the Chicago headquarters not be drawn for the purpose of preventing such action," said Mr. Coolidge when told of the situation and he expressed the same view regarding the situation in Louisiana. LaFollette is trying to disarm criticism of his attack on the constitution his proposal that a majority of Congress may over rule a majority of the Supreme Court, by saying he is only for a constitutional amendment so providing. But La Follette insists that when the Supreme Court declares a law of Congress unconstitutional, the Court usurps the power of Congress. Now suppose La Follette, holding that view, were elected President and the Supreme Court declared a low of Congress unconstitutional. La Follette, believing its declaration a usurpation of power, could not in conscience uphold the Court. The Court has no power to enforce its mandates. That rests with the President, the Commander in Chief of the Military Forces. Thus it would become the sworn duty of La Follette to repudiate the decision of the Court, because that would be upholding the Constitution, according to his conception of the Constitution, which in his inauguration oath, he had sworn to uphold. Suppose Congress passed, over the President's veto a law of Congress unconstitutional, the providing all schools must be taught by Catholics, and the court pronounced the law unconstitutional. La Follette would be in duty bound to uphold the law. BUDGET DOESN'T PERMIT SPENDING MONEY ON JETTY Slashing by the board of supervisors, of the 1924-25 budget in order to effect the decrease in the tax rate made by the board will prevent application of general funds to repair of the jetty at the entrance to Orange county harbor according to a declaration made Finley state is a strong bond issue sufficient to make the entrance able the preside side the harbor or of submit early a date also that he sue to do work demonstrated questionably "I believe realize the import available safe for vessels ing from the ea CALIFORNIA FIRE LEADER California, season, is wintest Fire Leader United States an indifferent bad season, and the second duc tacular come and rapidly o With a total to September 605,000 acres vate lands, a press, there say, of any s coming her c few weeks of The citizens spite of the which greatly hung up a reeof every 100 f ning, which al forest fire bat in midseason, an average of But the Davis leaders are now asking each other. While Bryan may refrain from any more public utterances of this kind, how much influence will he exert privately on those still susceptible to his leadership? There is evidence that Chas. Bryan is playing the same game. The "pressure of public duties as Governor of Nebraska" has been his excuse for not making a real, honest to goodness campaign for Davis. He has been called to the Chicago headquarters, where the riot act was read to him. And he promised to be good. But will he? He has promised to make speeches for Davis wherever he may be needed. He has assured the Davis leaders that he will play fair and to hide the evidence of a split in the party, the leaders have assured the dear public there is nothing to the reports of disloyalty and friction, assurances which the intelligent portion of the dear public will take sum grano salis. La Follette is posing as a martyr because the California courts have ruled that his electors can appear on the ballot only under the socialist caption. Just why La Follette, who is and long has been a socialist, posing as a Republican, should so seriously object is hardly clear, unless it is because he believes he can make some political capital out of the martyr role. Nevertheless, it is unfortunate that the law should be such that the courts could not give him his own way. No one deplores the necessity under which the court found itself more than President Coolidge. "I recognize that it is the privilege of our voters to support anyone they wish at the polls, and I feel that the law should BUDGET DOESN'T PERMIT SPENDING MONEY ON JETTY Slashing by the board of supervisors, of the 1924-25 budget in order to effect the decrease in the tax rate made by the board will prevent application of general funds to repair of the jetty at the entrance to Orange county harbor, according to a declaration made by Col. S. H. Finley, member of the board. The statement was made in answer to a question as to whether the supervisors would attempt to make immediate temporary repairs of the jetty, which it is asserted, by some, is rapidly going to pieces. "In making the budget we cut to the quick wherever possible and we will not have funds available for such work," the supervisor said. At the same time Finley said that according to reports made to him by persons competent to pass on the point the structure is not in a serious situation. "It is true that the jetty is settling and that some of the construction is being displaced, but the large rocks that are tumbling off the jetty are falling where they will be of service in reconstruction work," he said, adding that "settling of the jetty was not at all unexpected." "It is my opinion that no serious injury will result to the construction by permitting the repair work to go over until such time as bond money may be available for reconstruction," the supervisor continued.

He stated, also that he believed a large bond issue to do work inside, until there is a demonstrated need for it, would unquestionably be defeated. "I believe the voters of the county realize the importance of making the port available by making the entrance safe for vessels entering and departing from the harbor," Finley concluded. CALIFORNIA WINS FOREST FIRE LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP California, for the second successive season, is winner of the National Forest Fire League championship of the United States. After getting off with an indifferent start in the face of a bad season, and trailing for months in the second division, she staged a spectacular come back in July and August and rapidly climbed to first place. With a total of 1,801 fires which up to September 30, had burned over 605,000 acres of Government and private lands, and cost 786,000 to suppress, there is no possibility, experts say, of any state in the Union overcoming her commanding lead in the few weeks of play season left. The citizens of the Golden state in spite of the Federal ground rules which greatly restricted their playfield hung up a record of 59 per cent out of every 100 fires that occurred. Lightning, which always stands high on the forest fire battling list, slumped badly in midseason, but finished strong with an average of 41 per cent. diplomacy of the Republican Administration in its dealings with Mexico. During the Wilson regime, the United States was made to take sides first with one faction and then with another in Mexico, culminating in the ridiculous personal war between Wilson and Huerta with the expenditure of much money and many lives in the seizure of Vera Cruz. American prestige in Mexico disappeared and the relations between the two countries had not been so strained since the Mexican war. That was the situation inherited by the Republicans when they took control of the Government in 1921. President Harding immediately took steps to restore the good feeling that had prevailed for so many years. Through personal conversations with President Obregon an understanding was reached and an American commission was despatched to Mexico City to confer with the Mexicans and prepare terms for a complete settlement of all controversies. About two weeks after the death of Mr. Harding that commission returned to Washington and rendered its report. Soon thereafter diplomatic relations, which had been broken off about ten years before, were re-established and the friendship thus resumed has been cemented more firmly with the succeeding months. The story of the Republican Mexican policy is one of the brightest chapters in the history of that party's efforts toward world peace and mutual understanding. REPEATEDLY DISPROVEN The Democratic theory that the more we buy abroad has been repeatedly disproven. In October, 1913, a Democratic tariff law went into effect and in the next ten months we increased our purchases abroad to the say, of any state in the Union overcoming her commanding lead in the few weeks of play-season left. The citizens of the Golden state in spite of the Federal ground rules which greatly restricted their playfield hung up a record of 59 per cent out of every 100 fires that occurred. Lightning, which always stands high on the forest fire batting list, slumped badly in midseason, but finished strong with an average of 41 per cent. Smokers were the "Babe Ruth" of the fire league, and scored 43 per cent of all man caused fires, with campers second at 15 per cent. Other league leaders in destruction were brushburners, railroads, lumbermen and incendiaries. Contrary to all known rules of good sport, errors and carelessness on the part of citizen players were largely responsible for the remarkable showing made by the state. In the face of this unequalled record, the Forest Fire League of California bids fair to close its season with the greatest financial loss ever experienced. Conservative estimates place the forest fire damage at five million dollars, which will eventually come out of the pockets of the tax payers of the State. HANDS ACROSS THE BORDER On the anniversary of Mexican independence day President Coolidge took occasion to send to President Obregon his "cordial felicitations and fervent wishes for the continued prosperity of your great and friendly republic." The friendly relations which permit of the exchange of such messages are due entirely to the wise chapters in the history of that party's efforts toward world peace and mutual understanding. REPEATEDLY DISPROVEN The Democratic theory that the more we buy abroad has been repeatedly disproven. In October, 1913, a Democratic tariff law went into effect and in the next ten months we increased our purchases abroad to the extent of one hundred million dollars as compared with the same period in the year before, under a Republican tariff. Did we increase our sales abroad in a similar degree? We did not. On the contrary, our sales decreased to the extent of $160,000,000. By spending more abroad and selling less abroad, we are $260,000,000 worse off for that period of ten months. At the end of that period the war broke out and shut off imports and gave us a new and abnormal market for our exports. Remember the foregoing facts when some one asks you to vote for the candidates for President and for seats in Congress who propose to enact a Democratic tariff. GET some today!
