More B. S. From The Turner Tribune
The Turner Tribune has the following to say in regard to
the railroad project being killed in Stavton.
Asked as regards to the outlook for a railroad from Stay-
ton, a Staytonite in Salem Wednesday informed us that
there were only two or three fellows in his town who fav­
ored such a bugaboo scheme. Why sir. "all the freight
that is hauled to my town from West Stayton in a week,
could be moved in one wagon load w’ith a team of good
mules” he said. We are not going to bond our little city
for 75,000 just to please a mill man, an editor and another
fellow, he remarked. It is ever thus. The bubble had to
break before a realization of cherished dream s—*nuf said —
Turner Tribune.
/
Whoever the man was that made the remark about one mule
team handling all the freight that is hauled from West Stayton to
Staytpn is laboring under a false delusion or he has an empty top-
not. There is only half a dozen trucks that are constantly hauling
freight to and from West Stayton to Stayton and the assertion
made by the man who informed the Tam er Tribune to the con-j
trary knows that he made a false assertion. But he was ju st so
full of that stuff, he had to spill it to someone who would soak it
up. And when he said it he was knocking his own town.
The editor of the Mail don’t give a d -----m what the people
think of him for wanting a railroad, for there is no moss on our
backs and the grass does not grow under our fe e t We are alive
and the undertaker hasen’t got our number ju st y e t
We are also
glad that we have a few followers Mr. Turner Tribune, you will
have to give the town of Stayton credit for having a few live men

Liberty Loans and Conservation
The events of the last four years have shaken the foundation
of social structures. So say the lecturers.
They are right in the main. But the final result may be in­
creased stability,
The Liberty Loans have made bond holders of nearly every­
body. So much money has been invested that industrial Corpora­
tions in need of money have been compelled to issue bonds in hunt
dred-dollar denominations. Baby bonds at six and seven per cen-
have been offered by automobile and packing concerns and utilities
of various kinds. And small investors are grabbing all they can.
Watch them line up when the new issues go on sale.
. Tinkers, tailors and truck drivers are gradually becoming the
mortgagees of the big corporations. Billion dollar debts are held i
by millions of brick layers, carpenters and plasterers. And it is
perfectly safe money.
Here is the strongest bulwark against "Bolshevism.” The
masses will hardly want to wreck industrial enterprises of which
they are themselves the creditors.
