The cabal that forced C ox’ nomination at San Fran cisco deserted him on election day. It appears that the wets back East didn’t take any stock in the Anti-Saloon league story that Cox was wet. Mr. Harding smokes cigarettes. The American peo ple will never be contented until they learn what brand. It was the straight vote that retired Chamberlain and if the election was held over again next week Cham berlain would win. The landslide went over the one of 1904 and Roose velt was a more popular man than Harding and Cox a better man than Parker. The principal objection to a landslide is that it car ries into office a large number o f undesirables whom the people must tolerate until the next election. The democratic party had better return to the side o f William Jennings Bryan. Under Bryan’s leadership it may not win, but it will always be nearer being right. The Multm>mah county vote on congressman indi cates that the landslide saved Mr. McArthutf and the chances are best that there w on’t be any landslide two years hence. Mr. Harding will have to make a choice between the two factions of the republican party that) elected him president. When he does that the big row starts. The losing side will have two able champions in Senators Johnson and Borah. The most horrible example of safron partisanship was displayed by the Oregon Voter in its issue of last week. A fter declaring that one of the Multnomah repub lican candidates was a bad man that should be defeated and his democratic opponent was a good one, the Voter admonished the republicans to elect the bad man any how for fear they would not have enough sense to scratch a ticket correctly and might vote against one or more good republicans. deceased, has died his final . ac count in the County Court o f the State o f Oregon for P olk County, and that M on d ay the 6th. day of I December, 1920, at the hour o f 10 o'clock A.

Wilder. The lure o f the sea is as strong to the boy as the lure of ths wilds. For the first time he Is to have a chance to smell the tar and oakum and feel the swaying deck beneath his feet, even though he may live in a sandy desert. The chief sea scout has introduced a new note Into scouting— the Idea of giving every scout a definite Job with definite duties. Under his system there is no general rush for the axe and neg lect of the shovel. Every scout does his part o f the work und together they do It all—whether it 1* launching a boat or cooking a meal. As In the navy, every scout in the boat will have a specialty and a rating based on that specialty. He will have certain gear In his charge and will re ceive special Instruction In the han dling and the care of the same. It Is not absolutely necessary that there shall be water in or near a town where the sea scouts are to be organ ized, though not to have at least a horse-pond will be a handicap. Jour neys to navignble water must then be undertaken or crew and skipper will stick at the boat grude, and interesting but dry-land class of work and games. It will be permissible t i change a room into a “ ship.” In this case the stairways will become “ gangways,” the windows “ports” and “ skylights,” and everything will be kept shipshape. Tlie United States navy department bas been Interested In sea scouting for » number of years, und some troops of sea scouts have bad the use o f navy equipment. Including bonts. Instruc tion has been given in some cases by Instructors from navy yards and navy vessels. y i § § Ì Farmers’ B usin ess I For the past eight years this Bank has given particular attention to the business of farm- el's.
