These soreheads find fault with'
givernment, society, business and
religion In turn. The country Is
going to the dogs bemuse their
party Is out of power, and they are
eternally waiting for the world to
go to smash. They find fault with
the rich for being rich and the iwor
folk for being poor, and with the
world at large for not appreciating
their personal worth. Business,
they Insist. Is going to the "dogs" 4
and good times will come again no
more. They go around whining
about how things were when they
were young, and, like a millstone
about the neck of their own busi
ness, their pessimism throttles
every effort of others to keep
things moving. In religion every
body la a hypocrite and a sham,
and there Is "none righteous" with
the exception of themselves. They
excell the angels In their power of
looking into the mysteries of godli
ness. If the moon had ever been

shed their noise on It since the

What Uncle Sam Owes Us j
That more than 50 per cent of!
the urea of Oregon is the proper-!
ty of the national government Is
realized by but few people. This
large acreage, which pays but a
very small sum yearly to the sup
port of the state or to the state's
development, which Is free from .
taxation and outside the control of j
its people, presents a big problem I
in state administration. It is a
cause of high taxes In Oregon. The
only revenue that comes from this
big area Is the 35 per cent of the
sales of timber that is cut annually
from the timber reserves. Citizens
In all parts of tho United States
have common Interest In these
government lands with Oregonlans,
but they are not made to bear the
brunt of ownership. In Oregon,
besides the timber lands of the na
tional forests 22 per cent of the
area of the state Is owned by the
federal government, according to
an article published In the Literary
Digest, of Saturday. August Ti.
The same article tells us mat
more than one-half the land In
eleven western states is owned by
the federal government, the total
acreage being 431,ii0.0i)0 acres or'
approximately 675,000 squaro miles, j
This vast area is equal to an ex-J
panse 12 times the size of New
New state or S3 times the size of J
New Jersey. The government as i
the largest real estate holder with
in the limits of the I'niled States
should be a greater factor In
building roads throughout the
states where Its holdings are tne
largest. . i
We are not criticising the gov-,
eminent In Its policies. We are!
pleased to see In Its viewpoint to
ward the problem which Its vast
ownership of land In the far west
entails a tendency tnwanl coopera
tion with and helpfulness towards
various states. Hut we urge that
the government ought to keep in
mind constantly the handlrnp Its
holdings do place upon the states
affected and should outline pol
icies of cooperative administra
tion which are ' marked for their
generosity. Albany Herald.
Free Salvation
The Rev. Mr. Ilulgln. evangelist
from Portland, has just sold Ids ;
yacht In Miami. Florida, for $25.
iiihi. Billy Sunday Is worth twice
that much, and a lot more. Bryan
nreached every Sunday In norma
out doors and syndicated religious
articles and died worth a quarter
of a million. The congregation will
