Taking the two, and lift 'Jr:,'- m combining the meaning, we have the true expression and (JtilKUrKAUllU interpretation "A MAN'S JUST AS OLD AS HIS SPINE ALLOWS HIM TO FEEL." The spinal column is the main conduit through which the nerve cables pass from the brain, and from which the tiny feed ers are distributed to every portion of the body. If through abnormal curvature, the bones of the spinal column obstruct the free flow of the health-fcivinfc currents from, the brain to the bodily organs, disease results in the organs so affected. The Chiropractor adjusts the cause of the trouble, removes the pressure on the nerves without the use of Drufcs or Knife. This allows Nature to build up the diseased organs or tissues.

They want only would run the business themselves $362,000, besides the license moneys for their own defense. But that would not suit the lords and rulers of this land. Not much. King Rockefeller and the other kings that own the country want to disarm the people and have private armies of their own. So long as tney control the federal and state govern ments the military machine is run to protect their interests and divi dends. This is the reason so many people are opposed to armament, lhey know that the money power within the country is more dangerous to our liberties than any enemy on the outside. The fear of an army is due to the uncertainty as to whether it is to be used to defend liberty or to de stroy it. The people know that the control of the army would not be in their hands. Personally I - feel that there is much reason to fear a Japanese In vasion. The only thing that stands in the way is the navy. With that out of the way I don't know of any thing to prevent the Japs landing an army on this coast, say at Yaquina bay and in Alaska. With the present state of preparation I d'ont know what this government could do to pre vent it except to appoint a day or prayer. Rut the neoDle are naturally afraid to tax themselves for a big military machine to be put uncer control of our capitalist rulers. So there, we are between the devil and the deep sea! Capitalist subjugation on the one hand, Japanese invas:on on tne other. I don't know which would be worst. ' I would prefer neither, The English capitalists have an alliance with Japan to provide against the contingency of a successful revolt in India against the benevolent rule of Georee IV. The English capital ists have holdings to the amount of five billion dollars in this country. The American millionaires who own nearly all the rest of the country are rlnsp.lv interlocked and intermarried with the Enclish nobility. The whole situation has a very sinister and ominous aspect. If I were an astrolo mr I should sav that the horoscope was unfavorable and the prospects of peace not encouraging. About half the population is crying peace, ana the other half urging preparations for war, and we are tied up in a net work of caDitalist law that makes it impossible to defend ourselves if war should suddenly burst upon us. The question is, shall we be delivered to our enemies or irom tnem : J. L. Jones. and that's going some. Why cannot this office be combined and cut the officers' salary to nearly one-half? Now come the board of forestry, which wants an increase of $23,000, or a total of $111,000 another graft. Some of the heavy timber owners, for whose benefit this money is spent, now refuse to pay their taxes. When does the farmer come in? If we have a fire they have to look out for themselves. Now I don t contend that these measures do not have some virtue, but I think the expenditures are in excess of benefits received, and if our present session will cut out and consolidate other commissions and bureaus they will be doing some things the voters sent tnem tnere for, instead of making such efforts as the Lane representative, simply for blind to cover up larger deals. Louis Frink. . SOMEONE ANSWER THIS Newcomer Outlines Conditions we do Not Believe are General Salem. When the legislature began the third week of the session all the Important measures of general Inter est, such as prohibition legislation, taxation amendments, the appropria tion bills, consolidation of boards and commissions, highway legislation, changes In election laws, still remain ed to be passed upon. While a number of bills were passed during the past week they were most ly of a purely local character. During the second week of the ses sion both houses gave evidence of an Intent to live up to pledges to exer cise economy. Although the big ap propriation bills, which absorb most of the taxpayers' money, have not ap peared, there is an apparent Inclina tion to carefully scrutinize all meas ures calling for expenditure of state funds. Both houses concurred in a Joint resolution for the appointment of a joint commission to receive and consider all bills proposing the con solidation of all state boards and com missions, a proposition favored by many members, which it is asserted will result in economy and promote efficiency In administration. Senate Gives Evidence of Economy. The senate gave evidence of a de sire for economy when it voted to abolish the state decennial census, re pealed the law carrying an appropri ation for the naval militia and to abol ish the state accountancy board. The house also passed a census re peal bill and It is expected that the two houses will concur on one meas ure and withdraw the other. A measure abolishing the state im migration commission, which has been costing $25,000 a year, passed botn houses. What is also regarded as in line with the economy policy was the ac tion of the house in passing the Schue- a&3 Oregon City, Ore.

CLARKES seems to be all that is available for the farmers. I am certainly in a doubtful position.

What is the cause; HIS busy, prosrpssive nation is today at the dawn of a new era of commercial and social development. The means by which the human voice, with its slightest inflections and indications of personality, can be curried across the continent jr.snOv, have been provirfrfd. Talking by telephone from the Pacific to the At lantic is now an acxc'.rpliuhed kcl. The celebration of this Is-test and preatest triumph in the art of telephony has just taken place. Within a short tim tlvj public will have, ready for its use, the product cf American brains, American initiative and Amei.trn scientific and technical skill, a transcontinental telephone ser vice, the equal of which is not even up'ijroached in all the other nations of the world. It is a splendid scient'f '.: arhtevereort of the very highest chars The ; ovver that sends the human voice cut over th tel ; .one -cr rcely greater than that of a breath, - yet the means have been prov-d id by wh'vh this tiny, almost imaginary impulse, made up ff ;'s niar.yas 2,000 separate vibrations a se;o'-. :!.f:".,-i be picked op by a delicate instrument, conserved over a distance of 3,400 miles, and '-rpr--ku-?d perfectly and instantly across the civ:: inc-r.;. The human voice has been made to travel es fu-;t as light, faster than sound unaided by technical apparatus; in deed, it rivals THOUGHT even, in the swiftness of its flight. The imagination can but feebly grasp, much less attempt to measure, the Lr-reacliir.; signifi cance of such a tremendous accomplishment. One hundred million people ?vi)l have for their daily use a system of communication that knows no East, no West, no North, no South. Dicli.cts, provincialisms, sectional prejudices, must e ven tually yield to the closer i, r. ion, the belter under standing, the more intimate comradeship that the human voice establishes. The neighborliness of a whole nation is advanced by the brushing away of the physical restraints of centuries. This contribution to the future happiness and prosperity of a more closely united people has not been brought about, however, by the overcoming of a few isolated, concrete difficulties. Its success has depended upon the exercise of the highest engineering and technical skill, and the solution was found only in the cumulative effect of improvements great and small, in tele phone, transmitter, line, cable, switchboard, and every other piece of apparatus or plant required in the transmission of speech. In this work the experimental and research department of the Eell System, of which this Company is a part, has been engaged ever since the telephone became a commercial possibility, less than 40 years ago. With no traditions to follow and no experience to guide, this depart ment, which is now directed by a staff of over 550 engineers and scientists, including former professors, post graduate students, scientific in vestigators the graduates of 140 universities has created an entirely new art' ephony, country a telephone service that has no equal. It has required vast expenditures of money and immense concentration of effort, but these have been justified by results of immeasurable benefit to the public. The transcontinental tele phone line, 3,400 miles long, joining the Atlantic and Pacific, is part of the Bell System of 21,000, 000 miles cf wire connecting 9,000,000 telephone stations, located everywhere throughout the United States. Composing this system are the American Telephone and Telegraph Company and Associated Companies and connecting com panies, giving universal service to 100,000,000 people. -the art of tel- and has given to the people of this Truly, -This is The Triumph of Science The Pacific Telephone ari Telegraph Company STOCKBROKERS OF PARIS.
