St. Johns now has a pay roll
of .OU.UOU per month and will
surely far exceed the quarter
million mark by the first of the
year. No other suburb of Port
land can show anything like it,
and many cities several times
the population does not have
nearly so large a pay roll.
Cigarettes by the million are
being sent to the soldiers. Why
not send pipes or cigars in
stead? Cigarettes arc hard on I
the nerves, much more so than
tobacco in any other form.
Many may be induced to become
cigarette fiends in these dona
tions that otherwise would not
acquire the pernicious habit.

' Why would it not be a good
plan to build air ships on the
Coast where the spruce lumber
is available, rather than cut the
lumber here and then ship it
East for manufacture into air
ships? After the ships would
bo constructed and fully rigged
out on the Coast, they could be
sailed through the air to their
destination, thus saving freight
and furnishing experience in
operation at the same lime.

William .1. Bryan, in the last
issue of his Commoner, proves
thnt ho is "true blue." Ho
hiU the nail squarely ron the
head, and sums up the situation
hi a nutshell:
"Baforc our nation enters a
war it is perfectly proper to dis
miss the wisdom of going to
war, but the discussion is closed
when congress acts. After that
no one should be permitted to
oloak attacks on tho government
or aid to the enemy under tho
claim that he is exercising free-
dom or speech. No sympathy,
thorefore, will be wasetd upon
thoso who have been arrestee!
for unpatriotic utterances. They
abuse free speech. And this
applios to attack on the allies as
well as to attack upon the
United States. We can no more
allow our allies to be crushed
than we can allord to bo crush
leading and most cnjoyablo fea
tures, and that was a solo by
Mrs. Gabriel I'ullcn, which was
rendered in a most pleasing
manner. Miss Nettie Loona
I'oy accompanied her singing
on the organ in her usual splen
did style.

A bald Imnker in Southern
Maryland was in tho habit of
wearing his hat a jjood deal dur
ing business hours, as protec
tion irom tho llios in the Sum
mer and cold breezes in Winter.
Kvury week a negro workman
on the railroad presented his
uhuck and drew his wages, and
ono day as ho put the money in
a greasy wallet tho bankor ask
ed: "Look here, Moses, why
don't you let somo of that
money stay in tho bank and
keep an account with us?"
The darky loaned toward him
and, with a quizzical look at
tho derby tho banker wore, an
swered confidentially: "Ross.
I'a jes' afeared, You look liko
ynu wub always ready to start
somewheres."
