Whon a . person sails Into the

hopelessly lost. .
In Portland the other day they
had a drawing for Oregon and Cal
ifornia land grant . lands. , Thero
were abnut four times as many
persons to share In the drawings
cs there were claims to be awarded,
lu this procedure some drew capl
i tal prlziw while others necessarily
got lcft( and It wan on a game
: of chance. ' i.
Ilyperorltlclam says Ihat this is
wrong and tho Portland newspapers
which have been publishing the list
of tho prize-winneis lu the lottery
a re going up against a federal re
gulation that forbids Buch publicity.
About a year ago a big drawing
took plnco in the city of Washing

out of a given number would be
: required to take tho tirat chance
in the battle fields In France. AH

( chanco that Is to say, It Is wrong
In the view of the hypercrltlcul.
Who would prosumo to suppose
, that there arc thoso wild cau see
no difference In the old Louisiana
lottery, which deliberately robbed
thousands under tho plnn of a
lottery, nnd which was finally put
out of , business through stututory
enactment and that kind ot H pool
Issue which everyone knows before

Who is thore, outside of tho ex
tremely hypercritical, who does not
know that tho gambling or trust-to-luck
Instinct Is wholly eliminated
In all thoso plans to raise funds for

In tho paying of an exorbitant prlco

The Berlin press ami the German
war office are compelled to renort
to the very highest type of strategy
to make tile Oertnun populace be
llove that the roll tat from the
Marne was pro-srrnnRcd nnd that
the attemnt of the "allied forces to
pierce tho German lines was
failure."
The Cologno Gnzotte says: "Tho
object which tho forcing' of the
Murne had In view was attained
Therefore it did not appear dunger-
nus to retreat locally In order to
Bave unnecessary losses."
It would have been a far dif
ferent story had tbe German forces
been able to continue the advance
that was attempted a week age.
'There waB not then the apprehen
' slon later evident as to unnecessary
losses.
It Is a hard pill to take, hut
there Is no. other way out of U.
There are several thousands of the

CHOP Ol TUK)IC IlltKIHTKlt.
As the harvest proceeds it bo.
comes more evident Hint the esti
mates of the grain yield in Grande,
Ronde were placed too low. u
many localities there will be f;i,'l
grain fluids that will show the old
Hlondani of forty-five and flft
bmihelH to tliD acre. But thoso in
stances are by no moans numerous.
Tho main peculiarity of the present,
season Is that conditions havo hcun
more nearly a balance as between
fall and spring grain tban has been
known In many years. ' Wlillo the
bot dry period of the growing sea
son was damaging to tho fall sown
fields tho rains later brought out
llin spring wheat to nn extent that
will very nearly off-sot the, lost of
the other fields. In one way and
another there will bo a grain yield
largely In excess of that which was
counted on only a few weeks ago.

LONDON, July 2I. (By United
Proas.)- Information has been re
ceived hero that Japan will agree to
tho 'American proposal for, joint
Intervention' In Olberln. Russia ' 1b
to bo assured that the entente has
no a?ro.islve designs In Intervening
In Siberia, lu fact, is only taking
action for the ultimate benefit of
the Russians themselves. '
It Is stated that the Selyukai, the
leading party In Japan, which has
long opposed Intervention In Slb&ilal
has now decided to abandon Its!
hostile stand.
The censorship Is already on In
.Tapnn and the newspapers havo
been warned against publishing any
news of. troop movements!
Fighting Doors.
All the doors should swing high
enough from the llnor to clear any
rugs placed near them. And their
should bo placed so that they will noti
jam against one another. I know of
two doors lnn house that persist In
locking knobs lust as two angry bulls
lock horns in mortal combat or is it
deer that do this? And when these
doors are In that position, you can't
get out, but have to buck out, go
around another way and separate
them. We don't Intend having any
doors like that. In UVs house. Hurry

Much Different.
After a woman has been married a
month or two she discovers that see

osition from seeing hlm every day in
the week.
Keep the lilood Stream Pure.
Rheumatic pains, backache, swol-j
len joints and sore muscles often are
the results of impurities in the blooc! j
gathering in the region affected, a re
sult of failure of the kidneys to elim-
