ADVERSE TO OLD SOLDIERS
Every old soldier will remember
the attitude of the Democratic party
toward the veterans of the Cival
War when it was last in power. Hun
dreds of bills granting pensions were
angrily vetoed by President Cleve
land, and no consideration whatever
was given the fact that the old sol
diers, now decreasing in number by
reason of deaths, are facing an old
i age which makes it impossible for
them to labor.
The Democratic party came into
power in the house of representatives
two years ago. It insisted upon the
abolition of all pension agencies In
the United States and so the pension
appropriation bill was not passed un
til August 15th, more than ten million
dollars being withheld from hundreds
of aged, infirm and needy survivors
of the Civil War and their depend
ents for nearly two months.
In order that pensioners might get
their money, even after long delay,
the senate was finally compelled to
yield to the Democratic policy of ab
olishing pension agencies. President
Taft was forced to sign the bill for
the same reason. The attitude of the
veterans toward this Democratic blow
at the pension system is shown in
a resolution adopted by the Grand
Army of the Republic at the, nationa'
encampment at Toledo. This declar
es that the abolition of the agencies
would work inconvenience and hard
ship to the aged and infirm survivors
of the Civil war and their depend
ents. There is no) doubt that if a
Democratic president should be elect
ed, together with a Democratic con
gress, further legislation adverse to
the old soldiers would be adopted.
PRIMARY LAW REPUDIATED.
Does the direct primary law mean
anything to Oregon voters ? Do the
people desire to preserve the law?
Admittedly the only way to maintain
and strengthen thi spopular law in to
abide by its results.
Senator Bourne was defeated
squarely for the Republican nomina
tion for United States Senator by Ben
Selling in the Republican primary
election. Later, Bourne was turned
down by the state convention of the
progressive party when he sought
that party's nomination.
In becomning an independant can
didate, Bourne repudiates the direct
primary law and asks the voters to
indorse that repudiation by electing
him. But we do not think the voters
of this state will be parties to adjust
, ing the direct primary law to meet
jthe whims of Senator Bourne or any
I other disappointed office-seeker. The
' prevailing sentiment among voters is
that since Senator Bourne participat
jed in the primary election, he is in
I consistent and entirely unwarranted
! in seeking to defeat the result of the
! nomination election.

HERE ARE 1.903.000.000 ACRES OF LAND IN THE UNITED
STATES. AND CAREFUL ESTIMATES SHOW THAT 1,200,000.
000 ACRES OF THIS LAND ARE AVAILABLE FOR FARMING
PURPOSES.
The cultivated acres last year produced $15.72 per acre, not in
cluding animals and their products. The uncultivated acres show our
agricultural capabilities, for, figured at what we are now doing, they
would yield the enormous sum of $13,362,000,000 additional, not in
cluding animals and their products, which the government estimates
in its last year's agricultural report at SI'S.!) I.,000,0n0.
We fell short between 1900 and 1910 in keeping our land devel
opment up with our population by 23,000,000 acres. In other words,
to keep pace with the increased population we must FNCKEASK
TIIK CniriVATKl) ACREAGE AND TITK V1KI.I) PER
ACRE, otherwise- we will soon reach the pint of not being able to
feed our own people and will have to look to other countries to sup
ply us. ,
THE TWO BIG DEVELOPMENTS THAT VILL DO FOR THE EN
TIRE NATION THE 0.T2ATE3T GOCD ARE THE EXPANSION OF AG
RICULTURE AND TRANSPORTATION. ONE CANNOT GO FORWARD
WITHOUT THE CTHtR. THE SUCCESSFUL FARMER MUST SUPPLE
MENT HIS COTTON. CORN. WHEAT AND OTHER STANDARD PROD
UCTS WITH VEGETABLES. FRUIT AND POULTRY, AND TO DO THIS
SUCCESSFULLY HE SHOULD BE WITHIN FIVE TO TEN MILES OF

that the lu-sj Tillable lands along the railroads are pnirtically all under

I -EVEN AS YOU AND I."
I had been lecturing the carrier boy
! rather sharply. He had been miss
I ing the delivery of my evening news
I paper about half the time.
The boy was new to the route and
when I spoke to him once before he
' appeared rather Independent. But
this time he was a little tearful when
he looked up and said:
"Don't you make mistakes. Mister?"
The shot went straight home. In
deed, I have made a lot of mistakes
both of head and heart and some one
might properly lecture me for them.
We are apt to be slow in making ex
cuses for the other fellow. If the
newspaper is not on the front porch
when we look for It. if the mail carrier
should chance to come but once in
stead of twice a day, if the telephone
girl at central fails to respond at once.
If the waiter at the cafe is delayed, we
forget that these persons are fallible
human beings
"Even as you and I."
For many years I edited newspapers,
and. like all editors. I insisted upon
accuracy in the news, perfection in
the composing room and punctuality
in the mailing department
Nevertheless
Despite my constant urging, the re
porters would fail to get both sides
of a story, and where the facts are
lacking utilized their fertile fancies;
linotype slugs would persistently get
in upside down; and mail editions
would occasionally be missed. The
boys made mistakes
"Even as you and I."
And sometimes when 1 traced a
piece of "pi" to Its source I discovered
that perhaps the floor man had sat up
all night with a sick baby or wife
and was "dead on his feet." He was
human
"Even as you and I."
It is always proper to insist on the
service for which you pay. That is
exact justice. . But-
Mercy is above Justice. And the
quality of mercy is not strained. It
blesses both him who gives and him
who receives. We should remember
that service is rendered by people who
get tired, who have headaches and
heartaches, who forget
"Even as you and I."
The newsboy taught me a new les
son of tolerance and charity. The
boy really desired to serve me. It
paid him to do so. Merely he had
not been able to get my location
straight in his head.
Since the day he floored me by his
ad hominem Interrogatory he has not
missed a number of my paper. He
was only human not a machine
"Even as you and I."
Bigamy.
Effie Papa, a man who has a wife
too much is a bigamist, is he not?
Papa (thoughtfully) Not always, dear.
,. FORGIVENESS.
"I can forgive, but I cannot for
get," is only one way of saying, "I
will not forgive." A forgiveness
ought to be like a canceled note,
torn in two and burned up, so that
it can never be shown against a
man. There is an ugly kind of
forgiveness in the world a kind of
hedgehog forgiveness shot out like
quills.

Chills and Hot Baths.
Hot water bathing is beneficial in
counteracting the. effect of a chill.
First it undoes another mischief work
ed by the chill. The latter has sent
too much blood internally, so risking
congestion. Heat brings the blood to
the surface. Heat is not life, but it is
one of the factors of life. Indeed, dis
solution always occurs when the in
ternal bodily temperature is greatly
lowered. Heat will not keep a body
alive and great heat will kill it In
many, morbid states of the system, as
rheumatism, hot baths are of great
service. Warm baths are useless. The
heat should be as great as can be
borne without pain.

THE seemingly impossible feat of swimming across the Delaware river
at rtiiladelphia with hands and feet tied was performed recently by
two young women. Miss Margaret Stanton and Miss Kathrvn Wallace.
Their feet were so tied that it was not possible for them to be).'! their
,knees very unu-h. and the ordinary strokes with the bands and arms are."i. ot
course, impossible Most or the motive power was rurnisnea oy tne muscles
of the Imrb and shoulders, and the girls rested themselves by swimming first
on one side and theu on the other. The bandages chafed their wrists and an
kles considerably, but they pluckily held out until the feat was accomplished.
The upper of the two photographs shows the young women diving with legs
and arms, -in fettered, the lower in the water with wrists and ankles bound.
