There are many reasons why James
VVithycombe should ba reelected Gov-;
mor of Oregon says the Corvallis
Oaiette-Times and apparently no
fundamental reaaon for a change In
the state administration.
Thla nation has been passing
through one of the most trying per
iods of all history during Governor
Wlthycorabe's adminlstraUoa and
through it all Oregon has constantly
beea at the forefront. Under the In-1
epiring leadership of James Withy
comae, who was probably the first
governor In the country to come out
pronouncedly for preparedness, Ore
gon has responded nobly to every call
made for men, money and materials.
With Governor Withycombe steadily
preaching one hundred per cent Am
rloanisra this state has led the na
tion for patriotism and haa been freer
from L W. W. and kindred troubles
than any of the Western states.
Mindfnl of Governor Withyoombe's
brand of patriotism and of his ability
to maintain law and order why should
the voters consider making any
chaaper Why should we be called up
on to make any experiments at a
time when It might prove dangerous
to 'swap horses in the middle of the
stream?" Governor Withycombe has
mads good, the people know he Is
dependable and there Is every cause
to blieve that he will be reelected to
hla present position for another four
years.
There Is another consideration
which Is vital. In cass Secretary of
Slate Olcott were chosen governor,
and nearly every prophetic observer
conceded that the race for the Repub-
lican nomination Is clearly between
Governor Withycombe and Secretary
Olcott, the three leading officers of
the State, composed of the governor,
secretary of state and state treasurer,
would be new to their positions. There
would be a new governor, a new sec
retary of state would have to be ap-
!ointed by the retiring governor and
mistake In dividing up their Interest
among so many different breeds. It
those in one locality would agree to
specialize on one variety of cattle,
their neighbors would acquire a repu
tation for that type. Buyers wishing
that breed would come from a long
dlstanc to look over the stock.
Johnson county, Missouri, Is one
locality that has worked along that
line. In one day a breeder of short
horn cattle disposed of 53 bulls, cows,
and calvea for $"000. This could not
have been done In a locality that had
attained no reputation for some dis
tinctive product.
Ths same results are attained by
growers of frtut. Whenever the pro
ducers of any section can acquire a
reputation tor growing sbme particul
ar thing In a distinctive way, they at
tract buyers from a long distance,
and . accomplish more than they can
by scattering their efforts.
The same idea works on all kinds
of manufactured products. When a
town becomes known as a center for
a certain type of Industry, people
come to it as a center for that par
ticular thing.
A town or an agricultural district
may well keep In view two ends:
First, to diversify its industry to a
certain point, so that when conditions
are dull in some Industries and not
in others. It w ill not be wholly flat.
Second, to specialize on some line
of agricultural or manufacturing pro
duction, and work to make that thing
a distinctive product Young men
seeking to start in business should
be encouraged to enter that particular
line, so that the community should
gradually tend to acquire its own dis
tinct product for which it shall be
noted. m
KELSO GOES RIGHT

Mayor Hylan of New York, enjoy
ing llfe'at Palm Reach, took time to
write a letter highly eulogistic of
William Randolph Hearst; and Mr.
Hearst's associates In the newspaper
business In New York are critical of
the production. There is every reason
why Hylan should admire Hearst, for
Hearst helped to make htm. The only
remarkable thing about the Incident
to our mind ts that Hylan should
have remembered Hearst with grati
tude after getting Into office. Many
successful candidates are apt to for
get all about the newspaper editors
who helped them cltuih up to hlsh

as State Treasurer Kay must rtire

limitations.
True Mr. Olcott has been drawing
state salary for about eight years but
the office of governor differ as wide
ly as that of secretary of sta'te as the
city auditorship does from the mayor
alty. The on position requires a man
who Is skilled for routine, detailed
with numerous department heads and
dosens of clerks and stenographers;
It la of a clerical bookkeeping nature
and there are always rules that can
be followed mechanically.
The office of governor, on the other
hand, rqeuires a man of executive
arily have difficulty in obtaining posi
tions. During the past year they re
port having found jobs for 9190 such.
The bureau reports that it has found
that grey hairs indicate the age of
i'scretioa. Many other employment
agencies are reported te be making
a special effort to find places for the
older mea.
This is a matter in which tho men
tal attitude of the older men has been
partly to blame. It Is not for imagin
ary reasons that so many concerns
insist upon having young men. And
it is not, so much as oop!e think,
because the older men lack energy.

to Itself. If a secretary of state fol
lows the laws of simple arthmetic he
is fairly safe but a governor has a
chance to make a mistake every fif
teen minutes.
la view of these considerations and
the entire lack of anything fundament
al to offset them would it be wise to
plaoe three new men in charge of the
three leading state offices and also
submit to comprehensive changes in
the membership of the various de
partments, boards and commissions
which would undoubtedly result from
a change of administration?
We believe it would be wise in
these critical war times to let well
enough alone and cause as little dis
turbance as possible In vital govern
mental agencies. The voters of Ore
gon are sensible of these facta and
they may, therefore, be expected to
slams Governor Withycombe's suc
cessful administration with their
overwhelming Indorsement by re
electing him.
ALL FOR THE WAR
There has been too much easy op-
tmuam in putting over this war. We
have keen accustomed to say that the
pop-elation and wealth of the United
States and its allies are about twice
what Germany and her allies have,
Therefore we must win.
Wars are not won by the countries
mat aave the biggest population.
Russia has three times as many peo
ple aa Germany. Yet Germany admin
istered a frightful whipping to her
glaat aeighbor, and the Russians are
cringing before her like whipped
cws. weitner can wealth alone win
ue, war.
Oar people are not. Russians. But
we mast learn what has been the
scfarce of Germany's marvellous suc
cess. Germany's people are not euper
rnea. They are not smarter than anv
other people. It is simply that the en
tire national force is put into this
wty. wnatever spirit or dissent or
revolt exists at home. It has so far
amoaated to nothing. Every man wo
man, and child is 'working for the
ww.
It this had been the case in this
afsatry, we would today have built
tjflod as mann ships as we have since
taat April, and we would have put
tf tee as many ships as we have since
have. We have been held up by many
cftfcsee, chief among which are labor
troubles.
"There have been some captialists

Car themselvs than to win the war.
Ttiere have been some working peo-

usually that he gets too set in a
certain rut. Also he is more apt to
become discouraged. He looks back
on his past experiences and sees a
good many -disappointments and fail

tries at a thing, he is apt to quit and
say it can't be done.
An elderly man does not need to

fort Is frequently so 111 judgad that
it is not successful. What is needed
is the willingness to keep trying out
new things, even in previous experi
ments do prove futile.
No elderly man ought to be satisfied
to run along a week in the old groove.
He ought always to be thinking how
he can beat his old record. The man
who can keep up that habit of mind
is not likely to be thrown cat of a
position because of his age. If he is
thrown out, he will get a recommen
dation that will give him a new
chance.

In many places business men are
turning to motor trucks as a means
of Telelvlng the freight congestion on
railways. 'Long distances are now
traversed by what are practically
trains of trucks running over the high
ways.
Among the cities of Conneticuit
last winter, many manufacturers
transported freight by motor truck.
They cut the cost by arranging to
get return loads for their trucks In
many cases. When a truck had de
livered a load, it would find notifica
tions at the Board of Trade, that a
number of people had freight to ba
carried back. By going back loaded,
the cost of the transportation was
cut in two.
It used to be thought that to make
country life successful, trolley lines
would have to be built all through the
rural districts. But the cost of con
structing trolley lines has greatly in
creased. A great many of the exist
ing trollies do not pay. Such lines
will not be built as freely for the next
20 years.
Ths motor truck is however a good
substitute. The usual method for get
ting country produce to market is
for each farmer to hitch up his horse
or horses, and drive or send a man
to ths railroad freight station. Small
loads are carried, often over bad
roads. One good motor truck would
do the work of a number of teams,
and only one man's wage would have
to be paid.
A motor truck system for a district
of farm country could make certain
trips on certain days of the week,
and cover its whole neighborhood
with regularity. It would reduce th3
demand for farm labor, and cut the
cost of getting food to market and
getting aunnUpg to thn farmer.

county court. Under options from the
attorney-general and local district
attorney's office, this general ruling
Is sustained as applicable to towns
generally.
Oregon City, however, has raised
the point of the inapplicability of the
law In the local case for the reason
that this municipality has a leglsla
tlve charter. Estacada, too, has rais
ed similar objection to the municipal
funds being handled through the
court's direction, and It is highly
probable, that that city, too, will be
gin friendly proceedings at once, to
solve Its problems so that road work
may be prosecuted. Undef the strict
ruling as laid down In the statutes
the money or rather the 70 per cent,
of the funds of each district are to be
used on county roads only. This, it
is said, would be practically impos
sible, for the reason that there are
no legal county roads in Estacada.
Oregon City claims but one county
road, that being Molalla Avenue, and
the expenditure of this fund In strict
conformity with the law, would re
sult in a direct opposition to' the pro
ceedure of the budget last fall.
Several cities at the 1917 legisla
ture succeeded In having a special
act providing that the entire share
of 70 per cent, be turned over by the
county to the municipality.
