One ot the moat important problems
of the probleme of the age la what to
do with the tin eana. If they are not
duitroyed and are allowed to accumu
late for a thouaand years, erery town
will have a pile of them larger than
the town luelf. In a million yeara
they will cover the earth three feet
duep. While moat of ua will be dead
and gone at that time, our children
will be and for their sake we ahould
aolve tlie problem at once.

JOHN D. LAUGHS IN CHURCH

from laughing right out in ehurch
Sunday morning in Cleveland, Ohio,
when the pxator in describing hen
pecked husbands, recited thia quotation!

lie thinks that, she ia hia'n, and finds
that he's her'n. "
Lots of folks think that the big" lubber, Pendle
ton, ought to quit kickin' little Weston around.
Knowing1 that the soldier boys on the border
will all return gives a great deal more satisfaction
than as if a condition of affairs prevailed there
which would make it a certainty that not all of
them would return.

IF TO BE OLD FASHIONED IS BEST,

AMENDING AN OLD MOTTO
"An apple a day will keep the doctor

and somebody shouted from the audi
ence: "And an oaion a day will keep
everybody away."

You do not hear much about the tariff in this
campaign. The time has passed when any politi
cal party can win a victory by declaring- for a
high or low tariff. No tariff was satisfactory to
all sections of the country and it is solely a ques
tion for non-partisan experts to work out.
With progressives like Ben Olcott, Charles Mc-
Nary and Walter Tooze coming' to the front in
the ranks of Oregon Republicanism, there is
some hope that in 1918 the party candidates for
senator, governor and congressman will have
clean faces, and if that purification comes to pass,
The Monitor makes no great expose when it says
that one or two of the gentlemen named in this
paragraph will be carrying the standard.
If W. C. Hawley was a standpatter of the ability
of Joe Cannon or Jim Mann and showered postof
ce buildings and other plums on his district, we
can see why the people for selfish purposes
might overlook his shortcomings and keep him
in congress. But why a progressive and enlight
ened people should choose to be misrepresented
bj a standpatter of no influence and small ability,
is a question that even none of his supporters can
intelfectuallj" answer.
Tuxedo fans are always loyal to that one brand, superb
end royal. They say, "What is the use of trying the
other kinds, and sample buying? We know Toledo
can't be beat? n; it's good as bread, whenbread is wheats;
it keeps us nil in cheerful humor, end makes cf eich an
on ardent boomer; it with r. t?;isstu
peace annoir.ts us; Tuxedo never die
appoints us. It is the worker's cih
consoler, when Business, with its lig
steam roller, has run him down and
left him jaded, with all his dreams z r .l
prospects faded. 'Tis then Tuxtdo
smooths the wrinkles, and to his sad
eyes brings the twinkles, and bmccc
him for future battles, down where tlie
loom of commerce rattles." These
fans are found in every station, in every trade ard oc
cupation; the tible jurist and the baker, the boss of
m.ir.y n rolling: acre, the butcher, as he sells his
rt ilicr, the tinker and the haber
dasher, the cattleman in far Laredo, a.
