DRIVING AWAY CAPITAL
i j
ANY papers in the country are insisting
that our present legislation tends to
drive capital from the state and it is un
deniably true. Principally among these
are the Oregon Voter, edited by C. C. Chapman,
and the Oregon Manufacturer, edited by E.
Hofer. ,
Mr. Chapman is statistical and somewhat
sarcastic in his articles. Mr. Hofer is an un
compromising fighter against innovation of any
kind which curtails the rights or refuses every
demand of capital.
There seems not much attention paid to
the dispensation which has slowly come upon
the country but the realization may be sudden
if delayed. Capital may make generous de
mands and promoters seize enormous profits
from a developing country, but when a slump
comes: When a cessation of migration occurs
from one part of the country to the other, the
excessive demands of capital cannot be tnet
without causing unrest, dissatisfaction, high
taxes and unfair blows at this same capital.
The principal cause of murmuring in Ore
gon just now is the fight between the Portland
Electric owners and the Jitney. The one claim
ing the right to everything in sight that it may
meet the enormous overhead charges for inter
est on profits, grabbed by a series of promoters
and dividers of the nickel of the proletariat.
Poor's manual in 1912 showed a liability of
some $50,000,000 on the Portland Ry. L. & P.
Co. How much of this is water no outsider
knows, but the securities are now probably held
by innocent purchasers and they must have
their interest even, though the people do not ride
the Jitney.
How much of the $50,000,000 represents
the intangible franchise, no outsider knows;
for the inextricable mixing of common, preferr
ed, retired and reissued stock, bonds, deben
tures, funding and refunding securities, notes,
etc., would puzzle the best accountant in the
world.
Portland and Oregon have slumped and of
course the nickel is hard to get unless new nick
els come to us. Will they come? Chapman and
Hofer say "not unless we quit fighting capital."
How if capital quits fighting' for too heavy
a dividend? Has not the day arrived when
huge promotion profits must be foregone and
water squeezed out of securities? Who foots
the bill? Nickels of the people in enormous
numbers must go for interest on money never
invested. $200,000 in interest means 4,000,000
five cent fares. Thirteen and one third fares
for each of Portland's 300,000 populatien.
So with the O. W. R. N. R. R. and the S. P.
R. R. Freight rates must be made to cover mil
lions upon millions of water while every ten
dency is to curtail the growth of the state. For
est reserves assisting in advancing the cost of
timber and decreasing the area for improve
ment. Two million acres of Land Grant held
up which would help some if placed on the market.
1 The automobile as a toy; the automobile as
1 a farming implement; the automobile as a
1 means of transportation for hire ; has come to
1 stay. It must have its right to attack the past.
1 If the past cannot meet the present it must pass
1 into complete oblivion.
1 To use the genius which has created the
' steam engine, the Deisel gas engine, the auto
1 mobile engine and the flying machine, is the
1 right and duty of mankind. The proletariat
1 must have their benefits and if the reactionary
cannot live, let his funeral sermon be preach
ed and on his tombstone the words inscribed:
'e took what he hadn't orter
An' died of too much water.
For that's what's the matter: too much wa
ter. The people's money, representing the riv
ulets winding through the mountains, has met
a dry season, and the pouring on the plains of
financial interestdom has ceased.
Fight capital? Never! Give capital jus
tice reserving that same justice for others,
among which may be found the poor devil who
likes to ride in an auto rather than hold onto
a strap as the car lurches .around the corner
and send four and one quarter cents of the five
he paid to some widow east who has been sold a
six per cent bond, taken at 90, at a premium
yielding her 3 per cent.
This taking of an unearned increment is
what's the matter with Malheur county. Trow
bridge and Nivers have killed the country and
the Bully creek fiasco has rendered it impossi
ble to finance an irrigation project without per
mitting capital to get more than its fair share.
Could we get our projects examined by in- !
vestors all might be well. But to have them
examined by promoters and bonds offered on a
huge price per acre will never help us. We must
give capital its interest and let the land pay tho
cost and no more.

Residence Phone 103,
PORTLAND, Oreg., Nov. 25. To
the Editor: The election is over and
it is now up to all of us to make a
living regardless of politics.
As a matter of fact, present day
politics has small bearing on any of
us individually except ns policies ad
vocated by politician and laws pass
ed, encourage or discourage industry
and tho investment of capital.
The politician and his pet hobbies
with which he experiments on the
people and for which the people pay
the bill, gets much more attention
and consideration than he deserves.
Ho seldom maintains a payroll, us
ually pays no taxes and in most in
stances is put in office not be cause
he is qualified for the job, but because
ho needs the money and is a good
Vote getter.
The man who starts a small indus
try employing 6 people is doing the
community more real good than 999
out of every thousand politicians who
claim to be working for tho "dear
people."
This is plain talk but you know it's
a fact.
What we want is industries and
payrolls, low taxes, and conditions un
der which capital will come freely in
to our state.
There are probably not two bills
that actually need passing at the com
ing legislature while hundreds could
be repealed, if tho usual practice is
followed, however, hundreds of new
ones will be passed and industry will
pay the bill.
Our fight is to place industrial ac
tivity ahead of political activity,
bread and butter ahead of hot air and
pay rolls ahead of political promises.
It matters not to what party you
belong, you are in favor of such a
program.
Very Sincerely Yours,
Pacific Coast Manufacturer,
E. Hofer & Sons, Pubrs.
We print the foregoing from tho
Oregon Manufacturer in full for the
reason that we think that Mr. Hofer
goes a little beyond the point justi
fied by the facts.
All will admit that politics stir the
country up and disorganize business
to a certain extent, seriously some
times. Industries, pay rolls and low
taxes generally go hand in hand, but
high taxes are not because of our
elected officials but frequently in spite
of them. Have wo not a government
of the people, by the people, if" not
for tho people, in Oregon at least.
The business to be carried on by
the people creates .the office and it ap
pears to us greatly in error to hold
its possession a crime and its pos
sessor a criminal. No business is run
better than the corporation conduct
ing it desires it to be run. If elected
officials are incompetent as a general
proposition it is the fault of the sys
tem and not the individual. Placing
it in a shameful category prevents
the better and more able men from
coming out for the office but why
hound those who do and point the fin
ger of scorn at them?
Wo think our system absurd and
that it costs far more than it should
to accomplish the ends desired.
Rather than cavil at the individual
why not set about having our meth
ods changed? The people have seiz
ed tho reins of government in Oregon
and we have arranged for every pos
sible fad to get hearings at the tri
bunal of public opinion.
If tho real people who deosiro eco
nomy nnd integrity will be as dili
gent and determnied for better ser
vice and better management as the
single taxer is for his fad, or as sin
cere and self eliminating as is the
socialist, the plaint voiced by Mr.
Hofer would be unheard and unnec
essary.
It is not the office seeker nor office
holder who is to blame. The people
may not -shift their responsibility to
thoso whom they choose to perform
their work. Let the people rule nnd
if they rule wrongly, let them foot
tho bill cheerfully or change their
methods.
We are in accord with the repeal
of many bills but tlie people refused
to clean up the statutes as regarded
two obnoxious and worthless chanters,
There arc two that need remodeling
nna simplifying: Tho Irrigation Law
and the Drainage Law.
We are also in accord with the idea
that the people are paying for a hitrh
or education not properly the business
of tho public. Beyond the High school
except for agricultural or vocational
training the public should not go,
But that is heresy, just at present. It
is also heresy to insist that tho study
of German nnd French is secondary
to tho study of Spanish, yet our con
tincntnl development must be among
those who speak that language.

If a thousand women were asked
to vote on the most distasteful task
among the numerous duties of house
keeping it is fair to assume that dish
washing would receive a safe majori
ty. Day in and day out, three times
a -day, seven days a week the accum
ulation of soiled dishes must be dis
posed of. Hot, not lukewarm water,
is necessary to remove the particles
of food -from the plates and silver
ware. After the housewife has kept
her hands in soapy dishwater raised
to almost scalding temperature and
rinsed and wiped the dishes, and re
peated this process over ,and over
three times a day, it is hardly to be
wondered at that so many women
have anything but soft well appear
ing hands fit for doing fine needle
work, or to chow at the card table
or club.
No Broken Dishes with Electricity
With the appearance of the electric
dish washing machine, how-evcr, all
this is changed. No longer is it nec
essary to employ careless hired help
to do the dish washing and break ex
pensive table ware. Ju3t screw an
attachment plug into the nearest elec
tric lamp socket, attach a connecting
hoso to the hot water faucet, scrape
and place tho dishes in the washing
chamber with washing powder or soap
and turn on the water and electricity,
Tho hot water fills tho washing cham
ber and is then shut off. In the mean
time it sprays over the dishes soften
ing the grease and food and prepar
mg it for easy removal when the
chamber is full of hot soapy water.
The small motor then starts rocking
the washing chamber, throwing the
water rapidly back and forth and al
lowing it to cut the grease and dirt
from every dish, cup and glass. In
15 minutes time and at a cost of less
than a cent for electricity the dish
washing machine will wash the days
accumulation of soiled dishes with far
less risk of breaking or chipping them
than it is possible to do with the fre
quent handling involved in the hand
washing process. After washing, the
dish water is drained out of tho wash
ing compartment, and it is again filled
for rinsing off the dishes. After the
rinsing water is drained off it is un
necessary to wipe the dishes, for they
will dry quickly from the residual
heat retained from the wash water,
A Combination Kitchen Table and
Dish Washer.
One of the new models of electric
dish washers not only "does the dish
es," but at other times when it is not
needed for dish washing it serves as
a kitchen table. The top raises and
lowers allowing the dirty dishes to
be scraped and placed out of the way
and out of sight in the washing cham
ber while the table is being used for
preparing meat and vegetables. This
arrangement overcomes the main ob
jection made to having just one dish
washing a day, the thrifty housewife
objecting to the exhibition of a pile
of dirty dishes accumulating in the
kitchen sink until time to wash them
after the evening meal. When the
last meal has been served, it is only
necessary to flood the dishes with hot
water and switch on the faithful elec
tric motor.
Hundreds of women who can ill af
ford to retain hired help at the pres
ent high prices would be glad and
willing to do without kitchen girls if
they knew of some scheme whereby
they could get rid of the bugbear of
dishwashing. The electric dishwasher
offers a simple, cleanly solution of the
problem at a cost well within reach
of the average purse. It does away
with unsanitary and ugly dish towels
and washrags in an otherwise spot
less kitchen, and forever settles one
household task which has made house
keeping a distasteful occupation.

INFORMATION
HERALDS OF THE COMING KING
(By Request of the Seven Day Ad
ventists.) The Laborer and the Capitalist
Let us notice, as briefly as is com
patible with clearness, a few of these
undeniable signs of our times. In
James 5:1-9, we are informed that
in "the last days," men will "heap"
treasures together; that the laborers
will be oppressed, and defrauded of
their wages; and that tho industrial
conflicts will grow more and more
bitter.
The unprecedented fortunes being
amassed by corporations and syndi
cates to an extent unparalleled in his
tory, declare that we have reached
the 4time foretold. How graphically
present conditions fit the prophetic
picture! The colossal fortunes, the
wasteful luxuries, the starvation
wages, the tremendous struggle of
the force of capital against tho force
of labor, the harvest of lawlessness,
springing from seeds of greed, injus
tice, nnd extortion and all in "the
last days."
The New York World of May 1,
1916, informs us that there were "one
million eight hundred thousand work
crs on strike or lockout throughout
tho United States today."
Mr. Frank E. Walsh, chairman of
the Federal Commission of Industrial
Relations, says: "We have found that
in this country of the greatest re
sources and education, one third of
the toilers are receiving remuneration
which barely brings them above the
poverty line. Two thirds are in ob
ject poverty. There are more than
nine million women workers in this
country, more than one half of whom
aro receiving Jess than six dollars
per week,"
