EMIGRANTS COMING BACK Already the tides of emigration from, America to Europe have chang ed to those of immigration. People who were alarmed few months ago lest all the foreign-born labor of the United States should depart to other .choree, taking enormous sums of money, may now quiet their alarms. Throngs of foreigners are still leav ing this country, tout many of the first to leave are already returning. Before the war foreigners who had earned and saved a' few thousand dollars could go back to their native land and live in comfort, if not real luxury, 'or the rest of their lives. During the war they could not go back unless tliejr went to fight. There axe other reasons for their departure. Many of, them had relatives in the old country whom they had not seen for years, but of whom they had not heard any news during the war. They wanted, to go back and gather up and care for the scattered rem nants of their families. But they have found, as many thoughtful persons prophesied they would, that conditions in the old country are far different today. They . returned to lands exhausted toy the war, where high prices would soon ea up all their savings, where the necessaries of life were scarce and where there was a general confusion of distress, unrest and unemploy ment. It Is not to be wondered at ' that they now wish to come 'back to America. With them will come many of the relatives and friends they went "home.' to seek. Word of the great er comfort and opportunities to be enjoyed in America will travel fast. America is not so strange a place to Euorpeans since they have known the doughboys. Immigration re mains a greater problem than emi gration so far as America 1s con cerned. In speaking of the value of trolley lines to cities, an eastern expert says the trolley lines are not yet ready for the fate of the stage coach and horse car. "The electric railway," lie says, "is the bread of transports tion life, whereas the automobile is the cake and man cannot live by cake alone." There is nothing like patriotism. Whichever won the world's series the Reds or the Whites, somebody was sure to be blue. Thres cheers for the Red, White and Bine. There are many men totally op posed to the president's policies, but even the bitterest of these would not wish him ill. "I am the uncompromising foe of te dance," says Billy Sunday. "Seventy-five per cent of the girls who t-'o down to ruin slide there over the smooth, glistening, wax floor of the dance halls. Of course, there is both moral and Immoral dancing, but I am opposed to both kraals." OREGON MADE Blankets XONR HKTTKIt KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality and Service f It was along about this time that the kaiser planned to arrive victor ious In America, and here It Is the King of Belgium iwho comes instead. Funny how that kind of mistake will happen. . Maybe the king of the Belgians can offer some suggestions as to how to make America sate tor democracy.

Peacock brought down a load of produce from his upper Smith River ranch today, and while here took occasion to drop Into this office for a visit. Tom is another one of our progressive ranchers who sees no great future for this country until the land hogs either make their great idle tracts tenantable, or cut them up and sell to people who will do something with the land. He tells of many tracts that used to pro duce good crops that have been gob bled up y the land hogs and let run to brush. Del Norte Triplicate. J. E.

There is no open season on Chinese pheasants in Josephine county and it Is a dangerous prac tice to use firearms in the edge of town. There is no hour of the day that nome jeopIe are not fishin? along the Tlver, or camping out. One man reports that one evening, while he -and his wife were sitting in their dooryard, a bullet -whizzed past them a:nd struck the side of their house. Gtune Warden Here r. k.

GRAYSON im (Continued from Page One) said that the cabinet discussed call ing the vice-president to assume the duties of chief executive. Immediate ly Secretary Tumulty became deeply agitated and issued a denial. He did not know that the report was pub lished on the authority of a cabinet member. Within a' few days it will be seen whether the president Is able to sign the prohibition enforcement bill which will reach the White House on Tuesday. If that tomes back ap proved in a hurry then doubting ones will admit that he has Improved sufficiently to discharge at least one of the important duties of his office. The "drys" say he will sign the bill and the "wets" say that If he is well enough to glve'lt mature con sideration he win veto it. New York, Oct. 13. Colonel K. M.
