Judge Webster Is "whooping It up" for good roads In various parts of the etaie. At Rosoburg recently he Is re ported as saying: "Every one knows that macada mized roads Increase the value of every foot of land through which they pass. Let me build the roads 15 miles fixm Rosoburg in every direction, and I will add JjO an acre to the value of every acre immediately tributary to the road." If the Judge would go on and say that the land thus Increased in value should pay for the cost of the roads, he would be getting around over the state to some good. About 250.000 plural votes were cast In the recent British elections. As the great majority of those votes were cast for the conservative party it is estimated they enabled that party to win about thirty seats which, but for those votes, would have been carried by the liberals. One enthusiastic voter having votes In different con stltuences managed to vote In six con gruences In one day. To achieve that feat he traveled 400 miles by automobile. It Is not unlikely plural voting will be done away with by the present parliament. A bill to that effect was passed by the commons last year but was thrown out by the lords. A judge in Peoria, Illinois, has de cided that a man is justified in beat ing his wife If she refuses to get his breakfast by four o'clock in the morn ing. That judge must have got his idea from Russia where it Is right eously believed that a man must occa sionly beat his wife to convince her of his love. Still it is to be hoped for the sake of humanity and domestic peace and love that the Peorian judge stands alone in his decision. The prospect of four o'clock breakfasts and an occasional thrashing by way of diversion would not be very allur ing to yodng women contemplating matrimony. People cannot help growing old. Youth, manhood, old age are the suc cessive steps in life. But it rests with the individual to decide upon the kind of old age he will have. Some people get crusty, crabbed and cynical as old age creeps upon them. That is all wrong. Old age should be marked by mellowness of disposition, a giving forth of the richness of ex perience, and by keeping in sympa thetic touch with the present. Such age is in reality a continued youth, and when at last the end comes It is like a glorious summer sunset. A healthier moral tone is evidently asserting itself in Chicago. It caused the abandonment of the notorious first ward ball, has secured 74,000 names to a temperance petition, and has led the mayor to strike a heavy and, It is hoped, an effective blow upon the evil resorts of the city. Such moral progress Is heartening to the cause of moral reform everywhere, for what Is being done In Chicago can be done In any city In the land, and In most of them it Is needed. Love, or the profession of It, has some queer ways of expressing it self. A week or two ago a man in France was arrested for having kept his wife chained to the wall of her room for two years. He pleaded that he did it because he loved her and was jealous. He must be of the same stamp as those infatuated youths who shoot their sweethearts because they love them so much. The Treasury Department at Wash ington haB decided that a hen is a 'bird. Of course everybody bad sup posed it was but the official decision leaves no room for doubt. If the gov ernment will now kindly decide whether it is the hen that lays the egg or the hen that hatches out the EVERY CHECK Each check that is issaed Is a record of the transaction. The check contains the date, the amoant, the party to whom the sam is paid, and the name of the maker of the check. If yoa pay by check, yoer business matters are protected by a method that is the simplest de vice of modern experience. Each check is a detailed record of each trans action. Each month yoa have a complete re cord of all your business in which yoa receive or pay money. Protect your business and yourself by the use of the check account. THE BANK OF egg that Is the mother ot the chick an Route and longstanding question will ba, sOUIed for all time. One of the religions' denominations of this country has had a targe amount of Its funds stolen by a dishonest offi cial who pleads In defence that he gave the money to charity. He seems to have been a kind of religious Robin Hood who robbed the rich that he might give to the pixir. Some of the niultt-mllllonalres of the country ap pear to act on a different principle. Ry stifling competition and restrain lug trade they artificially raise the prices on necessaries of life and so plunder the masses that the rich may beeomo even richer. The dishonest official will probably go to prison; the dishonest millionaire will probably re tain his freedom and continue to draw big dividends. Hogs broke all former records In the Portland market late last week, when the remarkable price of 111 a hundred pounds, live weight, was paid by local packers for the best Eastern Oregon porkers. This price was not only the highest ever paid here In the memory of packers but leads the whole I'nlted States for the last half century at least. For about one week Portland has had the distinction ot leading the whole I'nlted States In being the highest priced hog market. When hogs went to $10.10 and 110.26 last week, it was thought the limit had been reached but the jump to $11 shows the scant supply of high class porkers In this market and the strong demand. The reclamation of 42.000 acres of land In Oregon by the uatlonal gov ernment will be followed by nearly 150.000 acres more. The total cost will not be more than $30 an acre on an average, but will create land val ues to more than $100 an acre. The entire cost will not equal half that for a dreadnought. Every dollar of the reclamation fund will return to the treasury. Every dollar of the dread nautrht will sink In a scrap pile. What a lubricant In dally life Is courtesy. In the social world it pre vents misunderstanding; in politics it enables opponents to disagree without anger; in business it is Invaluable. It Is the virtue which, so far as It Is used, helps the wheels of life to re volve without friction. John D. Rockefeller has stocked part of his park at Pocantlco, N. Y.. with 2000 partridges. Does that mean that when they have bred sufficiently he will reach out after the game bird market and corner It? The pleasantest kind of a task will prove distasteful If we take it up In a wrong spirit. On the other hand a hard and difficult duty will seem com paratively easy If we approach it with cheerful determination. One spark of Are Is worth more than a whole heap of ashes, one single grain of wheat Is worth more than a mountain of chaff, and one good deed is infinitely better than any quantity of empty promises. No man Is ever crushed down by the burden of today. It is when he piles on top of today's burdens that of tomorrow's he finds the weight the weight too great to bear. MEN AND WOMEN WANTED.
