Those who put their money into bonds and war stamps didn’t pay the expenses o f the war. They will get every cent back, with ood interest, and you who thought you idn ’t put up a cent will help to pay back to them the money they put into these bonds and stamps. Those who bought bonds and stamps merely lent their money to the govern ment. The war bills will be paid by the taxes that have already been imposed fo r that purpose and by those yet to be imposed. You eouldn’t get out o f paying those taxes. You can't get out of paying those im posed in the future.

The Eugene papers are having quite a time with the reliability o f the news eolumns o f the other. The Guard still smarts under the re bu ff it received because of the fuss it made in publishing the famous United Press hoax upon the signing of the armistice, which cost it heavily in the cashier’s department. The Register, with the old reliable Associated Press, was finally first with the real news and slipped a few under the floating ribs of the Guard. Ijis t week The Register, in good faith, published the news sent out by the postal department that the ban had been taken o ff of Christmas packages. Be cause an amended order was received the next day cancelling the instructions of the day before, The Guard dipped its editorial pen into the supply o f rotting filth and gore which it has handy for such occasions and splattered the slimy stu ff over every page of the rag. The animus was so plain and The Register was so plainly not at fault that The Guard was “ hoist by its own petard’ ’ and exposed it shrivelled soul and its venomed fangs, much to the amusement o f those few who read the rag more out o f curiosity than anything else and then compare it with The Reg ister to see how near the truth it gets. The Los Angeles judge who has ruled that anti kissing legislation is uncon- »..tutional must figure that the tradi tional methods o f conducting a cam pa.gn among the women and babies was ben.g interfered with.

Q U A L I T Y STORE- GOOD s e r v i c e The rate advances are from 33 1-3 to 40 per cent. Further mental exercise can be secured by figuring out how the company existed under the old rates, i f the new rates are necessary to meet expenses. The plea is made that the advance is largely necessary to meet increased V?* wage schedules. This is manifestly un true. Only a part of the tremendous increase can be used for increased wages, which no one will deny operators and other employes if they are entitled to them. Only a few- o f the American people ever lived under a kaiser and those who did came here to get under a new form o f government.
