A REVEL IN CLOUDS.
Perhaps there are souls unsatisfied
with the change In weather. For the
matter of that, there are souls unsat
isfied with everything. Change, If
too sudden, puts them off their men
tal balance, but monotony, such as
the recent stretch of hot weather
brought to all of us, Is unbearable to
them. Sunshine, one of the greatest
of delights, sung by poets and pic
tured by artists, can, like everything
else, grow wearisome by staying too
long, says the St. Louis Globe-Domo-.
crat. It can be said, of course, that
we have never wearied of sunlight
but only of sun heat, but that Is only
dissecting the fly In the ointment
again. Nothing is surer than that
uninterrupted sunlight, with the mer
cury at 60 degrees, would grow mo
notonous, and we would sigh for
clouds.
Changes In weather are among the
most kindly of all the dispensations I
of Providence. But the voice of the
mourner Is heard to complain that
the drop In temperature In the middle
of July is a certain and infallible in
dication of an early frost which will
clean up whatever of crops and of
vegetation the drought may have left.
In the midst of the magnificent March
weather of 1910 a voice was heard to
exclaim: "Rejoice not at the early
spring, for verily it will bring the
housefly earlier than of old." And
the next month brought a killing
snow.
And here are still those who reveled-
throughout all of the March of
1910 without a thought of the untimely
advent of insect life, and who would
extract from the blizzard in the
month following the consolation that
it had given the quietus to all such
insects as had come too soon, and a
decided setback to all others, who
have survived the drought and the
hot winds of this summer, and are
now In full enjoyment of another of
those remarkable changes. Lands of
perpetual sunshine have also perpet
ually the tarantula, the centipede, and
other forms of Insect life, more an
noying than the housefly for the rea
son that they sometimes follow pne
to bed at night It may be true that
we are to have an early fall. Some
things, much more nearly infallible
than croakers, indicate that possibil
ity. But Just now, reveling in clouds
after six weeks of refulgence, we
would think k cafe for the affirma
tive to call for a referendum on a
proposition that it is as easy to get
too much sunshine as it Is to get too
much of any other good thing.
REFORMERS.
Every true reform carries with it
the element of personal sacrifice. "He
saved others, himself he cannot
save," is an old and true saying.
Joan D'Arc, the sweet maid of Or
leans, attending her father's flocks
in the peaceful valley, heard the
whisperings of the angels calling her
to the eventual sacrifice. Anne Hutch
inson was banished because she told
the people that sickness was the re
sult of wrong living or accident, and
was not a manifestation of the wrath
of God, and the cure was by getting
in harmony with the laws of Nature.
She thought Nature and God were
one. She was treading on very thin
theological ice, and the clergy ban
ished her, as they had Roger Wil
liams, the first advocate of free
speech in America. Mary Dyer was
hanged on Boston Common, a martyr
to the cause of free speech by wo
men. It was against the ecclesiastic
law for a woman to "preach." The
Puritans fled for freedom, and if
there were any in their midst that
wanted the privilege of disagreeing
with them, they, too, must flee.
A lew years ago, In the beginning
of the present, revival of political
righteousness, a voice was beard
"crying In the wilderness." The voice
challenged the right of the money
kings to oppress the children of the
All Father, and humanity listened as
ADMINISTERING
YOUR INCOME
The best way to administer your income, and
to conserve it, is to have a checking account, and
keep your balance growing.
This bank makes no charge for extending the
privileges! a checking account, but expects de
positors to maintain reasonable balances.
Our officers will be pleased to have a per
sonal interview with any who desire to open a
checking account in a strong, safe bank.

the voice of lli'nry George cried, "I
am for men!" and demanded a bet
ter Interpretation of the word of God.
In Charles Pickens we have a re
former of similar stamp. Very early
In life was he cast upon the rocks
and suckled by the she-wolf, yet he
became the most popular author the
world has ever known. He wa a
writer for the people, for that class
for whose cause he was the life long
champion, sacrificing himself at last
on the altar of activity that the great
brotherhood of man might be uplift
ed and benefited.
THE CAPITAL HIGHWAY.
i
Forty Oregon City men went to
Salem Thursday to persuade the Cap
ital Highway Commission to select
the east side of the Willamette River
as the route to be traversed by the
boulevard between Salem and Port
land. When they reached Salem,
they found that the Governor and the
members of the t'ommisslon had In
vited them to the Capitol to stiffen
the general backbone of the project.
The Oregon City delegation had a
good time, and boosted as hard as
anybody else, hut they were disap
pointed at the attitude of the Com
mission. The highway will not be
located on the east side of the Willa
mette, nor will it be located on the
west side, but the Commission un
doubtedly plans to arouse the en
thusiasm of the residents of the
counties between Portland and Salem
to a point where public sentiment
will be strong enough to Justify the
construction of highways on both
sides of the river
This Is all well and good. We have
no objection to the west side high
way, if we get it as well. But Clack
amas county should push ahead im
mediately and get to work with some
thing tangible to offer the Commis
sion for Governor West has Intimated
strongly that 150 convicts will be
turned over to the community that
first signifies its Intention of spend
ing some ' money "to build the high-'
way.

HIGHWAY STRIKES POPULAR CHORD
(Continued from page 1.)
last Thursday had opened the eyes of
the residents of the county to the
benefit to be derived from the capital
highway, and urged that construction
work be stared at once.
The meeting probably was the most
enthusiastic held in Oregon City in
recent years, and that the residents
of this county will furnish all the
money necessary for building the road :
and give other aid is asured. The J
meeting was canea origiuany iu up
vise means of obtaining the thorough
fare on this side of the river. How
ever, after it was decided at the Sa
lem meeting to have' a loop thorough
fare it was considered advisable to
hold the meeting and arrange plans
for the beginning of the work at the
earliest possible time. That land
values will enhance as a result of the
plan to build the boulevard is the be
lief of the residents of this city, and
a real estate boom along the proposed
routes Is expected.

' FOR FLETCHER'S
C ASTO R I A
PREDICT PASSAGE OF
BILLS OVER VETO
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. The sight
of a Democratic House and a Repub
lican Senate passing tariff revision
bills over an expected presidential
veto Is predicted by leaders in both
Houses of Congress today. It is be- j
lleved that the Underwood cotton re-! ter the rejection of the Nelson amend
vision bill will not pass the Senate ment. which proposed striking out of
because the Southern Democrats
there are disinclined to take it up
at this time.
It is freely predicted, however, that
the coalition of Democrats and Insur
gent Republicans which was formed
in the Senate for the passage of the
wool tariff revision bill and the farm
ers' free list bill will be held togeth
er and probably will be sufficiently
strong to pass these measures over
the veto that Is generally expected.
That this is a contingency that actu
ally threatens the standpatters is evl-
dent today from the action of regular
leaders who are canvassing the House
and Senate for pledges against the
bills. ,

ROOSEVELT
HE HALTED PANIC
8TEEL MERGER NECESSARY, DE
CLARES EX PRESIDENT AT
v HOUSE PROBE.
ALL RESPONSIBILITY IS ASSUMED
Committee Given Interesting Opinions
On Trust Question That
Confronted Him In
Big Crisis.
NEW VORK. Aug. 5. Theodore
Roosevelt talked boldly before the
House of Representatives committee
of inquiry Into the United States
Steel Corporation here today and vol
untarily told how his action in con
senting to the absorption of the Ten
nessee Coal & Iron Company by the
Steel Corporation In 1907 averted a
disastrous pantc.
The ex-Iresldent'8 action In sub
mitting to a Congressional review of
his own' administration was almost
unprecedented In the history of the
1'nlted States, and was thoroughly
Rooseveltlan.
First he placed upon himself re
sopnsibllity for approving the absorp
tion to avert financial distress in
Wall street, and condemned any man
who would be so weak as not to act
as he did In that crisis. Not to have
done so, he said, would have been
criminal.
The chapter he contributed not on
ly dealt with his part In the events
of that threatening time, but he gave
the committee some Interesting opin
ions on the trust question, that loom
ed up In their Import even more than
his recital of facts in the Tennessee
Coal & Iron transaction.
After declaring that his object in
approving the sale of the Tennessee
company was to restore confidence,
the ex President, In response to In
quiries by Representative Littleton,
relating to the case as presented to
him by Judge Gary and H. C. Frlck
at the White House conference in
November 07, said: J
"The situation was so critical that
It was liable to break at any moment
until the action was taken, and the
Instant It was taken an enormous Im
provement occurred and as said in
the poem of Mr. Emerson, with which
yon are all so well acquainted:
"If the red slayer think he slays.
Or if the slain think he is slain, it
matters "
Then Mr. Roosevelt launched Into
a discussion with Chairman Stanley
of the general trust question, saying
tnat tne United States bad something
t0 learn fr0m Germany.
STATEHOOD BILL
TAFT DISPLEASED OVER FAIL-
; i URE TO STRIKE OUT JU
! DICIARY RECALL.
VOTERS TO PASS ON PROPOSITION
President Probably Will Let Measure
Become Law Without His
Signature Vote Is
53 To 18.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. The bill
granting statehood to New Mexico
and Arizona legislation that has
been for many years the dream of the
people of those territories was pass-
ed by the Senate tonight, 53 to 18, af
the Arizona constitution its Judiciary
recall provision.
The bill as passed by the Senate
differs only slightly from the House
measure and it is said to' be most un
satisfactory to President Taft. He
has contended all along that he would
be glad to sign the statehood bill If
the Nelson amendment prevailed, but
that it was a grave question whether
he would be willing to sign it if the
amendment were defeated, as it was,
by 43 to 26. The Indications are to
night that the bill will become a law
without his Signature,
The Senate amended the House bill
wth two minor changes regarding the
manner of voting In New Mexico on
proposed amendments to Itg constitu-
,ion- These undoubtedly will be
i asreeu 10 oy we nuuse anu tne oiu
will be expedited to the White
House.'
The bill as passed compels Arizona,
as a condition precedent io entry Into
the Union, to submit the recall propo
sition to the voters for final decision
whether it shall remain in their con
stitution. New Mexico must vote on
a proposition embodied In the bill
i which would make the Constitution of
' the stafe easier of amendment.
Senators Bradley, of Kentucky, and
O Gortian, of New York, voted for the
Nelson simendment. The same two
members, with Senator Bailey, voted
against the final passage of the meas
ure, as did two progressive Republi
cans, Senator Bristow, of Kansas, and
Kenyon, cf Iowa.
