cntaining canned goods and camping
outfit. He said he was on his way to
the coast.
Maybe a good way for the drys to
discourage this agitation for beer and
light wines would be to let home
brewers sell their product for a lit
tle while in the open market.

THE bOND RECALL
With the prospect looming for the
voting on the recall of the $1,700,000
road bond issue at the November elec
ton the Eastern Clackamas Review de
clares: "Eastern Clackamas should put
up a stiiff fight against the at
tempt to recall the unsold road
bonds. If these bonds are recall- .
ed it will be ages before there will
be any paved roads in this por-
tion of the county. And unless
there are paved roads this portion
of the county will never develop.
Those seeking the recall are man
ifesting a callous and selfish in
difference, all the more so be
cause they have their paving
done, to the cost of which the
whole county has contributed. It
is true that some signatures to
the petition have been obtained
through misunderstanding, think
ing that the petition was against
the issuance of new bonds. These
will probaly withdraw their
names. At the meeting of the
community club last Friday night
the sentiment was unanimous
against - the recall, and for put
ting up a campaign against it.
Organization should begin' at
once, and it is to be hoped that
- eastern Clackamas will have the
assistance of the western portion,
for the county is a' unit, and their
interests stand or fall together,
and we have confidence that the
leaders at the county seat real
ize this fact, and will give us their
strong support.".
THE GAMBLING PRINCE
Is it worth while to gamble? The
answer to the question comes with'
the best grace from those who know
gambling and know it well. Such is
the story from the life of the prince
of Monte Carlo, of whom the Albany
Democrat writes.
"On the principle that food and
flowers are raised from, filth, pos
sibly Monte Carlo may be justi
fied. Te Prince of Monaca, now
dead, took the proceeds of his no
torious gambling joint and used
them in scientifiic research, to
study ocean life, chart the ocean
currents and make the seas pleas
anter and safer for. travel and
trade.
"Yet the same constructive
purpose could have been attained
without all the misery, crime and
suicide connected with Monte
Carlo.
"The most impressive thing
brought out in comments on
Prince Albert's career in the fact
that he showed by his own prac
tice what lie himself thought of
' his means of livelihood. He never
enmliliui Mnrs than that. he
never permitted his subejcts to
gamble. There was and is a strict
law against it. The people of
Monaca. like their ruler, have
merely profited by the folly of
others, and held the victims in
tolerant contempt, knowing as
they did that the odds are al
ways against the gambler.
ON THE WEATHER
Tha weather in Oregon is some
thing to be thankful for, declares the
Portland Telegram. Depicting tne
mildness of the climate and the even
weather conditions throughout the
year desDite the recent kicks against
the weatherman, the Telegram ex
plains that:
"We get our favorable atmos
pheric conditions (which is an
other way of" describing our wea- -ther)
from the Pacific ocean in
winter from the Southwest, laden,
with mosture; iff summer from
the Northwest, always cool and
always tempering the sun's heat.
This is our normal weather.
"We get our abnormal weather
when strong winds, blowing west
ward from the interior of the con
tinent, overcome the ocean
breezes. In summer the east
wind brings excessive heat,
though very rarely more than
three days in succession; in win
ter, this same east wind is a bliz
zard but never extremely violent,
or of long duratiion. Only once
since the first white settlement
has - the temperature south of
Portland dropped to zero. . . .
"In reply to some imaginary
reader who, having a grouch,
growls and would like to know
why so trite and commonplace a
topic should be lugged into the
editorial page, The Telegram begs
leave to say that it is worth
while, once a year, to reflect a
moment on the blessings kind
Mother Nature bestows upon the
residents of this favored section
of the world." :
