FLIMSY POLITICS
It is a wonder that political tactics
in Oregon of the old blackmailing
'.type should still prevail, and even
have adherents sufficiently gullible
to bo Imposed upon. They are still
helping over tho old libel In regard
to R. N. Stnnfiold holding his wool
crop and making immenso sums of
money at the expense of the govern
ment, when it has been shown over
and ovor ngain that Stanfield's wool
was at the command of the govern
ment nt any time and all the time.
And if the owner of this alleged I
great amount of wool would' hot ro-
, ., .. ., ' .
lease the same, It was subject, to o.
commandcrcd tho snmc ns all other
supiilios which tho government needs
are taken whenever It is necessary
for the benefit of the country now nt
war. - '
All that can be hoped to be gained
by continuous repetition of such lib
clous matter is to create a prejudice
against Mr. Stanfield because lie
happens to be u man of energy' nnd
industry and has made a business
success. - s.
; ; If ho had made a failure of the
sheep and stock business, ho would
still be berated by this cIosb of poli
ticians because he had not made a
success. It doesn't make any differ
ence to the class of political bush
whackers who stop nt no means that
will besmirch reputation for the fan-
cicd success which such disreputable
tactics will bring. '
The level-headed everyday Oregon
inn knows better thnn to place any
stock or confidence in such stuff, ami
for this reason alone there is quite
liable to be a reaction that will bring
as it should stronger support than
Mr. Stanfield would have Tocclved
without having been mndc the obje.-t
of this calumny.
A DOUBLE OFFKNSIVK.
According to German reports there
iB to be an offensive against the Ital
ian front nt the same time that the
operations against the western front
are renewed. It may be so. Hut it
looks like von Hindenburg's forces
will have enough to do to make head
way through the French and IJrltish
li'ies. It is n safe enough guess that
if any severe inroads wcro to lie made
on either of the objective lines, that
movement would have been pulled,
iff long ago.'
In the meantime Urn nllio.l f.nee. 1
are apparently ready for anything
that n. ay come up along tho battle
front In either French or Belgian ter
ritory. The failure to follow up the
artillery storming of the past few
days indicates that the German rock
nu.c .r
able to do is weakening. ' And this
pmVen It look more nnd more like the
proposed double offenslvo In for home
consumption.
RECEPTION FOR PIONEEItS. --.
That is a good 'movement proposed
by dnughtors of pioneer parents to
perfect an organization with the pri-
! mary object of providing suitable en
tertainment for the pioneers who will
moot in annitul session at Riverside
Park. It is not too much to assume
that thoso who came to this valley
! among the first and v ero then in their
prlmo are now mostly beyond tho age
when they should be required to pro
vide thinselvcs with what they muv
need to enjoy on ocencioh of this
kind. There are enough of th
younger generation to look out for
thoso who hove reached the patriar
chal ago. There is enough of the
rM neighborly feeling in and orour.J

In Which the "monk" was in
mischief.
Covered with flour and ' dough
from his rummagings in the
kitchen, the monkey was supposed
to be discovered at his pranks by
the little orphan. Ho was trained
to Jump down from a tabic, thence
onto a chair nnd In ono lenp dls

passing over a sink containing a

When the moment came to begin
actual operations the monkey mado
the leap from "take-off," but In
stead of jumping to the chair, he
made a wild leap into tho pan of
dlshos, and then proceeded through
tho open window. Kntlrely un
invited n cat ambled onto tho scene
In tlio door-yard and when the
monkey joyously vaulted through
the window he landed squarely on
tho cat. Tho camera . out-of-doors
was grinding away and photo
grnimcd a scone of unexpected anil
unrclienrsed animation.
Making dual leaps six feet in the
air, cat and monkey "mixed It up"

Tho Incident could never have been
prearranged, for animal training

been so deliberately blended. It's
a real fight, for tho brief lapse or
