With the campaign to remove unsightly advertising signs from America's roads well under way, attention may well be turn ed to the character of signs ard sign posts marking roads to show their destination and distances. The historic "sign post ' is of wood, with a board nailed to the side, ending in a rude presenta tion of a pointing hand. The board bears upon U face, usually in weather-obliterated letters, the name of the next town. Such a marker was all right for a trail, or a wagon road, but is as much out of place on a fine, hard road as an ox cart among automobiles. Modern practice dictates that road signs and posts should be per manent, sightly, plain as to information conveyed, sturdy, and ar tistic. For national highways, a beautiful bronze sign post has already been designed by a famous sculptor. Road associations interested in some particular road have adopted distinctive mark ers in .nany cases of a high degree of art and beauty, as well as utility. The Old Oregon Trail, for instance, which it is proo.sed to improve from the Missouri to the Columbia, is now in process of being marked with signs of real beauty and significance. Pro fessor Fairbanks, of the I'niversity of Oregon, designed the marker, showing a typical covered wagon and pioneer family of early western days. Such a sign is particularly appropriate for this trail, which is the route followed by early-day pioneers in their ox-team emigration from the eastern states to Oregon and Washington in the late forties and early fifties. It is not neces sary to wait for some large association to design or place mark ers, livery town can help by seeing to it that the r,ign posts along its entering and leaving roads are plain as to intent, yet handsome and distinctive. Placing such markers embodies the spirit of welcome to the tourist, which is "good business' for any town, and is most excellent work for local civic organizations to take up and follow through. 0 One should not commercialize 'the destruction visited upon other sections of the earth by the elements as has been witnessed the past few days in four southeastern states, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and North Carolina, where tornadoes and bliz lards have wrought havoc to life and property. However, if we could only spread the gospel about Oregon, Bctiuaint people with the ideal climatic conditions existing here the year 'round w here tornadoes, blizzards and earthquakes are unknown where a happy and contented people have nothing to fear from the ele ments, we think it would be doing a humane act to encourage those who are less fortunat in enjoying such delightful flimuip us this section of Uie United States provides, to acquaint them with Uie sublime und delightful conditions existing in this state. Compare today's weather with that of those states where wind and rain is ravaging tho lives of hundreds of people and doing tltlilnrlv rlumii.rji ii,t H.A ...;n: . t j 11 . .. . . , 6 w ua- iiiiuiiMis ui uouars. 11 mere is any sUtU in Uie union where its people should feel contented that state is Oregon.

OMAHA. May 1 Tho national poliry baa been adverse to western interests and destructive to western prosperity, former fnlted Stale Senator Gilbert Hitchcock declared today before the Nebraska democrat ic convention of which be la a tem porary chairman. "It Is not by accident or by chance that the prices of western products have been depressed," Mr. Hitchcock aaid. "It la not by acci dent or by chance that the west has been compelled to pay higher prices for what It must buy. Western pro ducts have been depressed and east ern products raised by governmental action. The reault has been a short lived and false prosperity in the sunt and a protracted and serious depres sion In tha west. "Hecaune of government interfer ence we find the grossest inequal ity. Some prices are far above the price level of lia. pushed uo bv the Iniquitioua provisions of the Kordney tariff bill. Others are aliout the same aa they were in 1918. In the main our agricultur al products in tbe west are about the same as they were before the war. Agriculture in tne west Is re ceiving on an average about fifteen per cent more for its products than ten years ago and paying for what It uuyo so per cent more, be con tinued. "That's what's the matter not only with the farmer hut with the small towns and the larger cit ies mat ao Dusiness with the farm er. This accounts for the bankrupt cy which has swept through tho luiilrilewest. "The republican policy of doflat atlon In currency anil credits sot forth In republican platform of 1820 depressed our prices, combined with the republican policy of isolation from the rest of the world, which has partly closed our foreign martl ets for furm products." Ho charged the republican partv with "using its machinery to pro mote the interests of privileged classes who finance its campaigns." One the other hand the democrat ic party "champions equal opportun ities for all. special privileges for none," be said. v Pay what you will you will never Mod in any other cigarette tbe unique delight ot the toasted process.

The presidency of the republic, as well as the life of the present government, is Involved in the French general election, accord ing to the leaders of the Radical-So cialist coalition. A few weeks ago It appeared that the only issue would be i'oincare and his policies. The Intervention of President Millerand, however, to pre vent tne repeal of the electoral re form law with a threat to resign his office If the law was not left Intact, will, in the judgment of the oppo sition, make it impossible for him to remain in office If the government majority Is overthrown in the elec tion. Apart from these personal elements the Issues of the campaign are not so clear cut as they promised to be. Poincare himself has contributed to the confusion by abandoning the ma jority that sustained him In the oc cupation of the Ruhr and in the ad option of the bills for the balancing of the budget. In his new cabinet there are sev eral members who opposed both these policies, and the premier has declared that the majority to which he prom ised official support in the elections has became a minority. These de velopments, it is thought, will now enable the opposition to concentrate their efforts on the exploitation of the premier's unpopularity. "General Discontent will be the chief of staff of the opposition forces." is how one political leader put It, adding that the government majority would be "led by General Apprehension." On the one hand are the people, disgruntled because of heavy tasotion and high cost of living, and on the other all those who regard high taxation and mil prices as me inevitable conse quence of Germany's refusal to exe- .'ECl ilijliy A used Truck from Roberts is guaranteed Before we sell a used truck we put it in good condition.
