The irruption of brown bears at the Linberg logging camp near Port Orchard has excited wide- spread interest. At first it appeared that the hardly loggers knocked cff work and left the field to the bears with suspicious complacence, but now it seems that it was not such a bad idea after all. Bears are protected by the game laws except when they get obstrepercus. Nobody wishes to exchange wallops with a bear or to run afoul of the laws, made and provided for such cases. The latest large brown bear to post and from stump farmer had spent an hour yelled for farm relief, though not for the Mec- Nary-Haugen bill. He wished to callaborate with scmebody in the task of abating the bear. Eventually help arrived from the logging camp and the animal was translated into a rug for the living room and meat for the kettle. Doubtless the rancher does not wish advice from a city dweller on how to handle bears. Nevertheless it is offered. One reads in the encyclopedia that bears are really timid crea- tures, easily frightened if one stands one's ground and lcoks the animal in the eye. One has only to advance resolutely and the bear will retreat However, if the creature refused to budge, it would be just too bad.

It is not merely beneath the dignity of the Democratic Party. It carries the wholly misleading impression that the Demo- crats have no really sound arguments against Mr. Hoover and in favor of Gov. Smith. There is a large and fortunately growing number of Voters who have intellectual self-respect and who cherish a sense of irritation against the poli- ticians who wantonly insult it.
