practice of showing sober, intelligent,

A MAN'S WORTH.
The taxpayers nt the recent budget
meeting recommended that the legis
lature raise the salary of the county
judge of Clackamas county, who now
receives $1200 a year. Although the
county has the right to levy taxes
amounting to hundreds of thousands tf
dollars a year and to direct the ex
penditure of a large port of this money,
the legislature works on the principle
that the county Is not capable of fixing
tne salaries of tbe men it employs.
H. a. Anderson, the present county
Judge, Is worth several times his sal
ary. He has made hnrd surface a
reality instead of a dream in this coun
ty, he ..as cut down the general ex
penses of the county and has elimi
nated politics from the conduct of the
county affairs. Ho Is at the head tf
the county government, which collects
annually over $800,000 In taxes and di
rects the expenditure of much of that
sum, yet he receives less than the pro
prietor of a good cigar stand or a
butcher shop.
Such a salary attached to so import
ant tn office not only Is an Injustice
to the person occupying the place, but
also is an Inventive to dishonesty. A
capable man, and an honest one, with
the experience necessary to handle
he work of the office as It shou'd he.
Is not attracted by such pay. Such
salary and such a Job Is an Invita
tion to depart from the ways of virtue
In the conduct of county business.
The Enterprise believes that a ma
jority of the property owners of Clack
amas county would endorse an act by
the legislature raising the salary of the
county judfie.
RURAL CREDIT EXPERIENCE

A Saving association wa formed In
Evanavlllo, Indiana, two year ago; It
had capital of a million dollars;
some of the moat prominent financier
of the community were lu director.

hand, the petition for hi appoint
ment alleging that the association hid
not been a success and that large
urn had been spent for sa'artes. The
latter charge will doubll.ua apply with
equal force to the new rural credit
scheme which la to be launched under
the auspice of the federal govern
ment. but which, luckily, will have the
national treasury at It back. It I
certain that this Indiana experience
will not asalst In securing public sub

M that the stock will have to be tak

atlc that government management la
the most extravagant and costly that
can be devised and If a private enter
prise cannot make a success of loan
ing money at rates under those pre
vailing generally, liow can the gov
ernmcnt be expected to do so unless
the whole country Is to be taxed to
make up the losses?
ADVICE TO JAPS
Viscount Kaneko, writing in a Japa
nese magazine, give his countrymen
some good udvlce with regard to tholr
behavior in the I'nltcd Stales. Tho
reason that we regard Japanese Iruiu
grants as Inferior to Europeans, he
says. Is that the former do not adopt
American customs and munners and
strive to harmonize themselves with
their white neighbor. He wonts them
to stop living a life apart, and to stop
Irritating American farmers and trad
ers by underselling them. They should
conform In every posslblo way to the
expectations of their adopted country
He doesn't want to see them adopting
a half-way, hypenated policy. If they
come here, their ultimate object should
be full and honent American citizen
ship. Japanese associations should bo
formed In this country, he says, to
enforce these Ideals on the Immi
grants. "If they persist In their ways, they
should be transported back to Japan.
With truo assimilation, the Japanese I tlon.
Immigrants could reasonably look for
ward to the right of citizenship and
the right to vote. In ahort, they will
l)e treated by the white men as their
equals.''
It's excellent advice and the more
closely the American Japs follow It
the pleosanter they will find life in
this country.

EMBARGOES
Nearly everybody seems willing to
have the government relieve hltth
prices by placing an embargo on ex
ports provided the embargo Is placed
on the goods produced by the other
fellow.
The American Federation of Labor,
for example, wants an embargo on for
eign shipments of foodstuffs, which
would benefit the union workman at
the expense of the farmer. The bakers
are likewise eager for an embargo on
wheat, which would give them cheaper
flour at the farmer's expense.
And the farmers, as represented by
the national grange, demand an em
bargo on manufactured goods, which
would benefit the farmers at the ex
pense of the manufacturing Industries.
The only way to Impose a Just em
bargo would be to prohibit all exports
whatsoever. And while that would
TOO EARLY TO PREDICT
Talk about the Republican candi
date in 1920 Is Interesting, It holps
fill up the newspapers, and It serves
to divert attention for the time being
from the high cost of living. But It
can attain no really useful purpose.
The Republican candidate for four
years hence is most unlikely to be any
of tho men to whom tholr friends are
now pointing tho finger of destiny. He
Is much more likely to be some "mute
inglorious Milton," of whom few, If
any, are thinking, but who will Im
press himself upon bis party and up
on the country some time between
now and the winter of 1920 by some
highly significant, maybe spectacular,
piece of public service; or who will
fill tho public mind by the sheer con
tlnuous force of his principles, con
slstoncy adopted and forcefully advo
cated.

When a girl becomes a woman, when
a woman becomes a mother, when a
woman passes through the ohnngns of
middle life, are the three periods of
life when hoalth and strength are most
needed to withstand the pain and dis
tress often caused by severe organlo
disturbances.
At these critical times women are
best fortified by the use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, an old.
remedy of proved worth that koens
tbe entire fiimale system perfectly
regulated and in excellent condition.
Mothers, if your daughters are weak,
lack ambition, are troubled with head
aches, lassitude, and are pale and sick

Just what they need to surely bring
the bloom of health, to their checks
and make them strong and healthy.
For all diseases peculiar to women,
Dr. Pierce' Favorite PrescriDtion is a
powerful rvtorative. Dutfng the last
ou years it boa banished from the
lives of tens of thonsand of women
the pain, worry, misery and distress
caused by irregularities; and diseases
of a feminine character.
