R. SCHUEBEL. Your Uncle Sam is starting a re cruiting campaign in Washington, Idaho and Montana. Wonder what jhe thinks of Oregon (Continued from Page 2) earned and unpaid on such stock. The common stock "holds the bag." In other words, the situation is this: Suppose the holders of the original $250,000.00 of common stock exchange their stock for the second preferred, which is their privilege for a period of sixty days. They will then hold $125,000.00 of second pre ferred stock and the bondholders will hold $125,000.00 additional . common stock, or a total for. the latter of $875,000.00. There may never be de clared a dividend on such second, pre ferred stock, but earnings which might apply on such stock may be set aside for improvements and better ments. This policy, if kept . up for some time, would have a tendency to discourage the holders of the second preferred, and the value of their stock will likely depreciate so far as selling same is concerned. If, how ever, they still hold on, and by reason of lack of dividends, then the com pany (which is the same as saving the bondholders) may at its option redeem the whole amount at par, with no interest or dividends what ever. In this way the original stock holders could get their money back, but there is no telling how long they would have to wait. When this re demption is made, the company may then offer the second preferred for sale at nearer its true value by pass ing dividends on same. The same policy may be pursued in regard to the common stock, should the original stockholders retain same. Or, on the other hand, the company (the bond holders) may default in payment of interest, which would have the effect of causing the bondholders to fore close the mortgage, and the second preferred and common stock both be swallowed up. As the bondholders now hold the greater portion of the common, only the original stock holders would be the losers, they hold ing either second preferred or com mon stock, to the amount of $250,000 common or $125,000.00 second prefer red. Or, further, dividends could be withheld entirely from the common stock until the smaller original stock holders Were "frozen out," at which time the company could declare divi dends on the common stock and then feed out to the public for sale such quantities of same and at such prices as it chose to offer. To sum up, the bondholders, if in terest is defaulted, get the road. If it, is a paying road, the bonds will be paid off, and the bondholders, besides getting their money returned, with in terest, have a nice little nest egg in the shape of $750,000.00 or possibly $875,000.00 worth of common stock. All in all, it is a real cute little deal,-and we will watch with interest future indications of prosperity in the personal affairs of the directors who engineered the deal. OLAF OSWALD. R. L.

Our Modern Civilization U Baud on - Freak of Nature. : if It were not for one tiny, erratic break In nature's orderly progression we should never have had the ma rblnery that has brought about mod ern "civilization. For we should not have bad steel. It Is true we should have had Iron, but pure Iron Is almost useless. It Is only when a small quan tity of carbon Is added to It that It becomes hard enough to take a cutting edge. Then it is called steel. Why steel hardens Is an unsolved problem. The Scientific American re produces some extracts from an ad dress before the British Institute of Mechanical Engineers, delivered by Professor Arnold, who has for many years been investigating the chemical and mechanical relations between iron, carbon and other metals, and Sir Rob ert Hadfleld's experiments that called attention to this "break" In the order of nature which alone makes steel pos sible. - Nickel and cobalt are so closely re lated to Iron In their properties and In their position in the periodic classifica tion atomic weights, specific gravity, fusing point and valence being almost the same that It might be expected they would behave Identically when united with carbon. Not so, however. Sir Robert Hadfleld found that when the "steel" made of nickel and cobalt was heated or hammered the carbon came out of the composition and was precipitated as graphite. If Iron be haved this way tool steel would turn to cast Iron as soon as heated. And It is on the fact that it does not "a seem ingly quite erratic departure on na ture's part from her orderly plan" that modern manufacture is founded. LOFTY ACOMA. Strange Indian Village Perched High Up In the Air. Perched on the top of a great rock In the neighborhood of 300 feet high stands Acoma, in New Mexico, In some respects the strangest village in this country. Acoma is an Indian settle ment of some 600 people and means "the people of the rock." Though the founding of the village Is lost In the mist of antiquity, It Is supposed the Acoma Indians chose this site as a measure of safety against the warlike Apaches and Navajos of their day. Their selection was made with ad mirable Judgment, for the walls of the rock are almost perpendicular. The earliest Spanish explorers found the tribe settled securely In their natu ral fortalice. Acoma has remained de lightfully untouched by the Influences of Spanish and American civilization. These Indians are quite well to do In sheep- and cattle; which are pastured on tbe grazing lands of the valley, where summer villages are located and where the minimum of effort Is re quired to care for the flocks and herds. Although less than twenty miles from a railroad, the village is comparatively unknown.1' The natives do not care for curious visitors. They do not wish to be stared at and photographed. Nevertheless, the Irrepressible tourist with his cam era occasionally scales the steeps that baffled the Navajo. Nowadays It is no longer practicable to suppress him with a tomahawk, so tbe Acoma are philo sophically making the best of a bad job by collecting $2 a day for a camera license. The gray adobe village peers from its erie over miles of gray plain dancing in the glare of a burning sun, broken only by the sheer outlines of buttes and mesas. Argonaut. The Cherokee Tribute Stone. There are, of course, stnlrs running up the inside of tbe Washington monu ment, but few people walk up' the stairs. Of course there are stones set in the wall by different Btates that are well worth the climb, but at sunset time the majority of folk think that it is better to ride. There 1b bo much to see in our capital and feet are only feet. As the elevator crawls up one sees the New York' stone, the Ohio stone, the Kansas stone and many oth ers. One sees a blurred stone labeled "The Cherokee Nation." Somehow that stone depresses a few people, for the white man has done little for bis In dian brother In return for his land, his game, his dying race bis memorial stone. Margaret E.

ALL ABOUT VERMONT Liberals See Trend Towards Regu lation in Defeat of Prohibition Is the prohibition tidal wave which has been sweeping over the United States about to break into harmless spray? Has it reached the limit of its force? Has the Ameri can nation, after trying out prohi bition in nineteen states, come to the realization that it is not a remedy for evil, but rather an agent of evil? Will a majority of the nineteen "dry" Electric S er vice rings Real Comfort It is the little comforts and conveniences the improved ways of doing the daily household tasks which change houses into homes. Electricity has a deft way of doing your house work which is both pleasing to you and most economical. Portland Railway Light Power Company states soon go back to their former condition of license, regulation and control of the liquor industry? These and many more questions of the same character are being asked as an aftermath of the liquor election in Vermont only a few weeks ago. At this election every county except one, Orleans, gave a majority in favor of local option. The State majority against the prohibitory amendment was 13,164. . The vote for prohibition was 18,503 and against it 31,967. In 1903 local option won by a majority - of only 729, automatically repealing the prohibitory law. The significance of Vermont's stand against prohibition, it is said, is due to the fact that it was one of the sixteen states which were voted "dry" fifty years ago. : Practically all of the original sixteen prohibition states have returned to the license system, it is claimed by the liberal interests, who say that the present prohibition agitation has not the strength of the wave of a half century ago, allowing for natural increase in the population of the nation. They pointed to Internal Revenue reports to prove that, notwithstanding pro hibition, the consumption of liquor' in the United States has seadily increas ed in the last fifty years. The liberals are enthusiastic over the Vermont outcome, and as a re sult of the condition in Kentucky, where the legislature has passed an amendment instructing the Blue Grass representatives in Congress to vote for the national prohibition amend ment, only in the event that the li quor industry is paid for its proper ty, an act which the prohibitionists absolutely refuse to agree to.

HUNTLEY BROS. CO., Oregon City Druggists Oregon WHAT FISH YIELD - Refuse from Canneries Rich in Pro ducts That Are in Demand The folly of dumping into the river the thousands of tons of fish scrap that are thrown away yearly at the Columbia river canneries has not only impressed the promoters of Oregon City's eel-oil factory, but has also attracted the attention of the United States government. Owing to the shortage of certain phosphates, due to the European war, and the necessity of these phosphates , in fertilizers, the waste from the canneries is now of greater value than ever. Com menting on this, a recent report of the Department of Agriculture says,' in part: "In the salmon-canning industry investigation has shown that at least 30 per cent, on the average, of the material as1 it comes to the factory is discarded as unsuited for canning. This includes heads, tails, fins, roe and viscera. This raw canning waste contains the following percent nges of fertilizer ingredients: Am monia, 3.67; bone phosphate, 3.46; and, in addition, about 10.43 per cent of fish oil. In 1913 approximately 6,700,000 cases of salmon were packed in Amer ican canneries. The waste products from this industry could have been made to yield about 11,400 tons of fish scrap and about 2,500,000 gallons of oil. From the average cannery which produces, say, 50,000 cases of canned salmon in a season, the output of dry fish scrap might be at least 115 tons and of oil about 19,000 gallons. To a great extent this material is now wasted. In addition, there are other sources of waste. Large quantities of fish of other species are caught along with the salmon, and these are fre quently thrown away as worthless, Occasionally, too, more salmon are taken than can be handled by the can nery and scow loads are sometimes discarded."

Following his death, the Directory, with its records, copyrights and prop- rty, was sold to N. W. Ayer & Son, who combined it with their well known Annual. .
