"TASHMOO" . . . .in t?ce
When the big excursion steamboat/
?'Tashmoo' struck a itock in the Do
tioitj Kiver the other day add sank
jujst as her captain beached her, the
newte carried my memory back 35
yteans, to Memorial Day, 1901. That
was the day of the great steamboat
nace on Lake Erie between the "Tiash
moo" and the "City of Buffalo".
Both boats had been debigued by
ho samo man, Frank Kirby, ojqe of
America a greatest navial architects,
ihe "City of Buffalo'' was designed
L'or oveiuiight freight and passenger
sendee between Buffalo and Cleve
aud; the "Tashmoo" for carrying
->ig excursion crowds up the Detroit
itiwr to Belle Isle Park. They were
.ho two tastiest cnaft that had ever
mvigatcd the Gre.<it Lakes and the
?tueibijion, as to which was the faster
/t the two wat> so hotly congested in
?Hipping circles that, finally, permis
ion was obtained from the U. 8.
-jteamboat Inspection' to stage a race
jetween them.
Enormous stakes were put up and
jumlicds of thous-uxcU of dollars in
ado bets. A measured 100-mile coar?cJ
?vns marked oil between Cleveland
.md Erie, Pennsylvania, The "Tadi
uoo" went into dry-dock and had her
wttom seinped and oiled for the
?vent. The "City of Buffalo" made
ier regular overnight trip to Cleave
and, discharged cargo and paasen
jexs, took co/xl and turned around
.vithont further preparation,
I was on the press boat which went
nil trom Buffalo to see the finish
>1 the nice. It wa? id>out as cxeitJug
.i sporting evenjt .13 I ever witnessed
- and nbout aa ehwe. The "City of
.iulliiUi" beat, the '"iVsJnno^' by
ess than 011c minute in 100 miws!

1 ithilnt? it was1 a hue thing ?or the
?iei^itc of the United States to vote
in .award of a gold modal to George

chul everybody can sing than in all
he laws that ever were made. It *
?juite possible that before the present
,1'u idential campaign ends somebody
will, write and set to music a campaign
song so po^rfjul in itls popular ap
po.al that it will decide tihe election.
That has happened before.
REGROUPING . . ? regions
Mioiro and morcj the idea is talked
about regrouping the United States
into regions instead of staties. It was
the main topic discussed at the Insti
tute of Regional Development held
recently at Chapel Hill. North Caro
lina.
Certainly, most of the economic and
social problems are regional None Is
nai^n-widc; Dew are limited to a
single stnte. If any group of states,
such as New England, oonld agree by
Lre.ity among thenteelves to act as a
unit o|u, all ? matters, Congress would
have to ratify thei treaty. But there
are political limits tjo any regional
plan.
No state will give up its rigiht to
an equal voice in theSenate, for ex
Ample. On the dtiher baud, Texas can,
whenever it wan,ta to4 send 10 HiB

CAMPAIGN PLANS
ARE BEING LAID
Washington, July 1?Willi the nom
iiiaJiug cuu\ tut iuiipj of the laajor par
? ies over aud the work of the 74tb
i/jtrigress finished, Washington is set
ting down the serious business ol
rndic-jwial polities. Tiio.se who are
rying to dope out what 'w iii lwjipen
u. xt November Had, on surveying the
political scene, a considerable number
?jl now factors, the imparlance of
which cannot at this -time be accu
rately estimated.
The session of Congress ended "with
a victory for the PijcsidetajL im the
new lax bill. The Senate .rejected
:l?e principle he advocated of taxing
undistributed corporation reserves,
.?ult administration. prefcsune on the
;jv.rcr House resulted in a threatened
deadlock, in i lie iace of which the
Senate yielded. Au, entirely new prin
ciple oi taxation has been plaoedi on
iftc al^rute books and business is dis
turbed over its possible consequences,
ihe ono certain Uiing about the ne.v
4ax law at t his time is that ip, makes
it more difficult for corporations to'
conserve their ressources against fu-j
aure depressions.
Just bulore it quit, Congress gave
he President another bilU'*'] and a
a alt dolcra for relief- This
will carry on relief work until about
February, so one of the first joba of
the new Congress, which will oonvenc
on Janizary 3, wift lie to do something
quick about Federal relief.
Many legislative measures, which
important pressure groups regarded
j as of vital importance, died in thu
last minnuite rash to adjourn. It must
lx> remeniltered, however, that while
bills die, the pressure blocs still live,
'land their efforts will be renewed in
the next Congrefcs. The substitate
tOnffey coal bill, the Administration's
| ioad and drugs bill, and Senator
Wnguer's housing bill were among
the casualties. The anti-price-dis
cramination law aimed at chain stores
' a.=! finally enacjtod, is not likely I o
(have any serious effect except that
it puts added powers into the hands
of the Federal Trade Commission to
regulate bnsiness.
! The ship subsidy bill, passed in
the closing hours, is designed to twild
up the American merchant marine by
1 direct subsidies instead of the srobter
f;!ge payments for carrying tho mail.
Under .this act it may be possible foT
America to at^hst put a ship ci} two
o'i the seas whiif will rival the greut
luuopaan liners.
? One really important hill which fell
Tin; probability that President
Roosevelt will visit Sylva and Jack
skui County, when lie comes to the
SUitu in September, Iras naturally
created gnat deal of in'terest. Tins
io the Di'st <ime that a President of
ill! United Slates lias ever visiud
Uiis part of North (Jaroiiua during
his term of office.

ohort o i' enactment was the measure
designed to put all post-offices under
Civil Service regulations. It was
lOught by Republicans on the ground
chat it would keep thousands of po
litically npjtointed Democratic post
masters in offioc for life, And labor
oppotjiJ(ioii gave many Democrats an
excuse for voting against it.
Political experts are not yet in
igreeiuent as to the effect on the elec
ion of the formation of the new
Union Party, headed by Representa
tive Wiiaai.i Lcrnke of North Dakota
its its presidential candidate and
Thomas C. O'Brien of Bofcton for
vice-president. There is a strong
feeling that this new third-party
njovement is to be taken seriously.
It has the support of Father Ooughlin
the "Radio Priest,'' and of Dr. F. E.
Townsend, founder of the old-age
revolving pension plan. Mr. Lemkc
has been the leader of t?ie agrarian
inflationist bloc in CongrcM, and is
the co-sponsor of the Fnuoer-LMttbB
farm mortgage bill.
