Who are these jfentle-1 men with highly charged, self-centered ambition? liy what right do thy rule, or do they rule? These so-called Democrats must have a line conscience to at tempt to dictate to Pierce whom he shall appoint to minor offices, wtlin 7t was the will of this little bunch of satelites that Walter , Pierce should not run for governor and thus muss up the Demo cratic party, in Oregon. They argued that he had done a lot of running and such leaders as Dr. C, J. Smith and Dr. Morrow aim numerous other "bull" Democrats were tired of having "their" party continually cluttered up with Walter's "Crime of the Age" and .other Jtits of .oratory in which the man from the Grande norma valley specialized lor several years, waiter neeueu not nis "central" committee, and the results are well known. True to their party teaching now the "leaders" come in for their share of the political pie. They do not want the old farmer governor to1 renifmber how they attempted to "rounce" him out of the political gamq, and they would like to be a committee to determine where the offices shall go. It Is quite a satisfaction to the people of Oregon regardless or party to know that when "Doc" Morrow and "Doc" Smith, and the lest of the smaller "Docs" who comprise the "central" com mittee, called on Walter and made their demands, the executive went up in the air mucltlike a cow pony pinched by the saddle. He bucked a few times and then squared himself facing the "com mittee" and proceeded to deliver an address on state patronage, party politics and a lot of things, closing with the assurance that he would 'do Just as he pleased and In the future ho would not have time to even treat the "central committee" with courtesy to which no doubt each memler thinks ho is entitled. ri'.fjcd finished the her Sol and OM i'.V'f lo see days.

TryOut Christianity At Inst the word hus lecn sent to all governmont heads urging ft trial of Christianity for thti world's ills.

It is not hard to say. There are but two words to the message, but it is a message full of great meaning a message that unquestionably is the last word of saying grace for n world that has teetered first one way and then the other, with no permanent results for peace and safety yet established. Try Christianity for war prevention. Yes, try it for all ills of the world; try it for the elimination of jealousy, fear and hat red; try it for sweetening the disposition which is inclined to wickedly assail n neighbor; try it for your business troubles, for the young people, for everything. Man nmde isms and plans go so far regardless of how intelli gent the man may le.

Me had little on nothing to do with its development or nssigning women to it- And when women lose their interest in it, that will be the end of it. They crented it and it is their privilege to destroy. No man will lament its passing or take up permanently any part of the bur den laid down by woman disappoint ed in their own kingdom of yore. The human race has already found a man's way of clothing itself other than by the fireside industries of wo man. It is fast finding a way of feeding itself at least in the bigger towns without the old-fashioned do mestic fooil factory. If the women run the factories and counting roolns man will doubt less ilevote himself increasinglv to the outdoors which has always been and alwnys will be his passion and dream of paradise.
