Friends of the Re- |publican nominee, however, expended an additional (88700 in newspaper advertising which, under the West Virginia primary law, does not have to be lul\ ounted for by the candidate. This is fortunate [for Jones since the State statute limits the expen- ditures by candidate to $100 for each cc There ::u’r 5 counties in West Virginia, and were the |advertising expenses borne by the nominee's friends {to be included in the official accounting, Jones would be out and injured, Buckeye Democrats with a wet Senatorial can- didate and a dry Gubernatorial nominee finally {found a way out by letting all [talk just as they please on Prohibition. At [that makes it so that no individual nominee must traddle unless he wants to. least | And then it might be that those South American was in the old days. Some of the medical schools are fully awake, seemingly, to the necessity of train- ing good general men if our modern programs are | to be “put over.” Then specialization and the! specialist are under pretty heavy fire, as witness, for example, the New York Welfare Council’s re- | cent comments upon the shortcomings of the opthal- mologists and their special hospitals. Dr. Peabody, in his important book Doctor and Patient (Mac- millan), shows very clearly the absurdity of our overdone specialization and the irrationality of our failure to draft the services of the general prac- titioner far more often. Then there are Logah Clendening’s smashing attacks upon specialization, surface of water were the limit of human effort Now close to 400 feet have been attained in sal-| vaging operations on the Canadian steamship| Islander lost 29 years ago within a few miles of Juneau and on the British steamship Egypt wrecked off Brest in 1922. Even these distances, ach)evedy daily in practical work, are slight compared with | records made occasionally in scientific experiments. | Recently more than 1320 feet were accomplished | by Beebe and Barton, and any figure at all is possible, as demonstrated by them. | For many years, there has been diving equip-| ment capable of withstanding water pressure. Suits, ‘ bells, spheres and chambers have been invented that | could be lowered to virtually any depth, but no| creature could endure the high inside air pressure necessary to resist the outside water pressure. Latc‘ contrivances obviate the air pressure difficulty.| The fundamental principle is a hermetically closed' container of chinkless construction and unusual 1| strength. It is supplied with ajr at ordinary pres-| sure, and keeps out water just as it is kept out of a corked and sealed bottle. Inside the device, | the diver can operate hooks and tools outside. } With the Islander, wreck, electric light globes afforded an unexpected demonstration of the nermet-‘ ically sealed principle. Specially manufactured | globes, designed to offset great water pressure, had been provided to light the submerged ship. Their thick glass allowed only dim illumination, and they frequently became defective. Finally, as an experi- | ment, an ordinary, fragile, household electric globe | was sealed in a socket and sent below. It proved serviceable at 380 feet, where water pressure is 380‘ pounds to the square inch. Now, no other Kkind | of globe is used \ With the depth danger overcome, the chief j trouble experienced in deep sea diving is impaired visibility. The thick glass that serves as a window in diving equipment and the turbid water on the ocean bottom limits view on a direct line to a few | feet—about three on the Islander—and not much | more in area. Electric lights attached to a wreck | can be seen only obscurely as in a dense fog. Better visibility—it may be obtained through glass changes in diving appartus and high powered illum- inating effects—is the sorely needed improvement wanted by deep water workers. Of course, in some places, tempestuous seas or strong ground currents | may make operations utterly impossible, as with the Islander during winter. For 30 centuries, fabulous tolls have been taken bw the oceans. The Islander’s gold, garnered from gravels of the Klondike, variously estimated from $300,000 to $5,000,000, and in the almanac of marine disasters figured at $3,000,000. Of the ship’s riches only a few thousand dollars’ worth has been brought to the surface. The monetary wealth on the Egypt is known to be $6,000,000, with all of it nearly in grasp. In abandoned crafts, charted and in many instances located, in waters under the earth, the aggregate of precious metal far exceeds the con- tents of guarded vaults on the surface of the globe. For ages, bonum derelictum—good derelict—the Roman legal phrase for treasure lost at sea, has beckoned men to ocean floors. Only now, has adventure obtained in science a guide that knows the way. THAT SEATTLE TRIAL IS OVER. The famous trial at Seattle finally came to an end and a verdict of acquittal for all of the accused. A lot of money and talent was expended, whether for any useful result or not it is too early to de- termine. However, under the law and in fairness it must be concluded that Lyle, Whitney, Fryant, Cor- win and McKinney are not guilty. They were vig- orously prosecuted and ably defended. Hundreds of witnesses took the stand and told all they knew both for and against the accused. And a jury of their peers said they were guiltless. The verdict ought to be final. Therefore, it is time for the public to quit trying the case and give attention to things that are more worth while. LOW COST PRIMARIES. In these days of primary election campaigns cost- ing hundreds of thousands of dollars—vide Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick and others—it is refresh- ing to read of less expensive ones. The prize, so far as we know, for keeping down campaign costs should be awarded to M. M. Neely, who is the Democratic nominee in West Virginia. He has filed a statement of expenditures showing it cost him less than a half-dollar, 44 cents to be exact, to be nominated. True, he wasn't opposed for the place, but the fact remains that he reduced his outlay to almost the old familiar irreducible minimum. Mr. Neely's Republican opponent in the Novem- ber election ean likewise view the activities of Sen- ator Nye's “smelling” committee without uneasiness. :eml practioners into a definite group for offensive | ‘versnr,\ of the birthday of the late Emperor Fran- | |to eliminate the factor his demand that general practitioners be included on the staffs of all hospitals and on the faculties| of all our schools, and his argument that tha| goneral practitioner is preventing a vast number of 'unnecessary operations and functioning very effi- sciently in his important field. * * * The cause of the general practitioner is also| |aided by the increasing inability of the middle classes to meet the charges of the specialist.

A country as capable of enthusiasm as our own under conditions that have wrought the changes of the past decade will undoubtedly at some time in the future—let us say ten years hence—forge ahead once more a little too rapidly, under im- pulses of ambition and constructive imagination,| and the overspeeding will doubtless be'followed by another period of slowing down and reaction. But the old days of widespread bank failures, worthless paper money, complete stoppage of mills and factories, bread riots and dangerous strikes may well be regarded as belonging to days that are definitely behind us. As for the ordinary citizen, he should now concentrate his thoughts upon his own undertakings, trying, at least to some extent, of consciousness about things in general. Watching the stock market will not bring prosperity to the country. Hard work and clear thinking will prove to be the tonic that will strengthen the average citizen in the management of his private affairs. - The stock market in due time will respond to a returning confidence in the ability of the country to maintain its decent standards of living. Hollywood Ueber Alles. " (New York World.) “The United States defeated Canada,” says an Associated Press dispatch from Camp Perry, O, “in the international police team pistol match at the national rifle matches here today when the Los Angeles team scored a total of 1592, whl}e the Royal Canadian Mounted scored 1416.” Let us consider the implications of this. The Los An- geles police, it is manifest, acquire their amazing expertness at pistol shooting from the great amount of practice they get in the movies. When off duty they spend all their time in Hollywood taking part in the pictures there manufactured. As most of the pictures have to be shot twenty or thirty times, and as each shot required just as much shooting as the last shot, they burn up a lot of ammuni- tion, and naturally become extraordinary marksmen. And the part they play in the movies is always the same part: it is the part of the Royal Canadian Mounted who always get their man. Thus we are afforded the spectacle of a constabulary paradox: the imitation has become greater than the genuine and defeats it when the national rifle matches are held at Camp Perry, O. Art hath grown bigger than Life and devoured it. This is an aesthetic age. We know what a stool is and we know what a pigeon is and we like both. We do not know how the two got associated in modern parlance but when we hear the words “stool-pigeon” or “under-cover man” we know its something like a snake and we step aside involuntarily. If there is anything more slimey or deeper in the life than a stool-pigeon or an under-cover man, we cannot think of it at the present writing.—(Seward Gate- way.) verse claims with the Register of |the United States Land Office at| |iod of publication, or eight months thereafter, or they will be barred | |by virtue of the provisions of tha. statutes.
