CITY OFFICIAL' NEWSPAPER.
EIN SPITE OF THE FACT that the city council has raised the tax levy
to 10 mills over the eight and one-half mill levy of the year before, Ore
gon City will be in a better condition without the saloons than it has
been and the money that is spent will, at least, do the city some good rather
than fatten the pocketbooks of the Portland liquor dealers.
Through the campaign that was waged against the saloon evil, this paper
has declared time and again that it believed, in the event of an increase in
taxes, the people would be bettered by the absence of the saloon and the re
moval of the curse from the city. It has always figured that it cost too
much to collect that $10,000 that the saloons were paying into the city treas
ury and that the people would be that much ahead even if it were necessary
to raise the levy to meet the loss of this source of revenue.
It takes that same stand now in face of the increase in the rate. It be
lieves that it is much easier and better to pay $10,000 into the city treasury
directly through taxes than it is to save $10,000 and pay $150,000 annually
into the coffers of the saloon. As a mere matter of elementary arthimethic,
the city will save $140,000 annually by the removal of the saloons and that
money will be spent in the city through the regular channels of business.
No business house would spend $150,000 in order to save $10,000. It
isn't good business for a wholesaler or a retailer. Why should it be good
business for a municipality? The campaign of the wets was made almost
alone on this issue and yet it doesn't figure out from a point of dollars and
cents.
Oregon City is better off without the saloons. Though the taxes will
have to be raised to meet this loss of revenue, the people will discover that
they judged rightly when they overthrew the power that has held them in its
clutches for many years and when they decided at the polls that the saloons
must co.
Even with a higher tax rate, the city is saving $140,000 a sum that will
be spent at home hereafter and that will go into the pockets of home dealers.
The saloons can derive very little pleasure" from their "I told you so" cry
since the council made its decision. The city needs the money. It has lost
the revenues of the saloons revenues that it can well afford to be without. It
has raised the tax rate to meet this loss. AH of which is wise and proper.
The city saves an annual sum of $140,000 that went into the pockets of
the saloons before. It seems to the Enterprise that the people of the city
have the right to gloat a little over the saving and that the saloons ought to
THE ATTEMPT TO railroad the administration currency bill
through the senate by the secretxaucus method appears to have failed
. utterly. In the house, it was different. Notwithstanding the vig
orous protests of Republican members and the manifest disapproval of some
Democrats, the bill was treated as a purely partisan affair, and minority
members of the committee were early given to understand that their party
represented therein merely as a matter of traditional formality ; the real
work on the measure being done by the Democrats in caucus. When the bill
was finally licked into presentable shape, the disposition was to force -it at
once to a vote, without affording any considerable opportunity for debate.
The Democratic majority in the house was of sufficient proportions to head
off serious resistance to such a scheme. In a way, perhaps this was well.
Unrestricted debate would undoubted have resulted in the bill being actually
talked to death, or at least in a process of haggling and filibustering which
would have made impossible any progress whatever. So, there is something
to be said in extenuation of the caucus method adopted in the house.
But whatever excuse might be offered for the action of the Democratic
majority in the house was based on a consciousness that the bill must later
go to the senate, which, at least theoretically, serves as a check on the lower
branch, and. in which the administration party has no such potent ana per
emptory majority. Urgent as is the necessity for currency legislation, it is
equally important that that legislation should be of the sate and sane order,
which shall do good rather than harm. It is for the senate to make sure that
proposed legislation answers this description before allowing it to pass. The
attitude of Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, in withstanding the pressure
brought to bear on him by fellow-Democrats and refusing to reconcile his

direction. The senate committee on banking and currency has been granted
re time "for consideration of the bill," and probably not a little or its time
will be devoted to considering what is to be done next. The failure of the
attempt to force the measure through by way of the Democratic caucus at
this stage of its progress is on the side of safety. 1 he only remaining Ganger
seems to lie in the possibility that Republican senators may yet talk the bill
into innocuous desuetude. Certainly some such bill must be enacted, and
that with the least possible delay consistent with the financial. stability of the
countrv. -

The Prizes of the Panama Canal
Are Not Going to Us
Unless We Strive
For Them
by American Press
Association.
By JOHN BARRETT. Director General of the Pan-
American Union
THERE is a growing need that every manufacturing and productive
citv and sect'on in the United States should be TJP AND DOING
AND GETTING READY FOR THE PANAMA CANAL. It
is equally important that cities and states should realize the present" and
prospective value of. pan-American commerce.
We have the enterprise, the men, the capital, the industries, the loca
tion and, I hope, the ambition which can ENABLE US TO PROFIT
ENORMOUSLY from the opening of the canal and from tne develop
. ment of the exchange of trade with the twenty sister Latin-American
- republics.
We cannot, however, simply rest upon our present laurels and be sat
isfied.
We must REALIZE THE COMPETITION WHICH WE MUST
MEET with the great manufacturing, exporting and importing centers
of Europe and even Asia.
THE PRIZES OF THE PANAMA CANAL ARE NOT GOING TO US
UNLESS THEY ARE FOUGHT FOR WITH UNREMITTING EFFORT,
IT WILL REQUIRE TIME FOR THE FULL GOOD OF THE
CANAL TO BE REALIZED by any city or section of the United
"States. Business must adapt itself to the new conditions, and the accom
panying INFLUENCES OF DEMAND AND SUPPLY MUST BIS

A SHORT CUT.
If it is ever your good fortune to sail
up the James river, in Virginia, from
Its mouth to Richmond, or if you have
already enjoyed that beautiful trip,
you will learn or you already know
something about the Dutch Gap canal.
Near Richmond the canal has been
cut to shorten the sailing distance.
The canal is only 500 feet long, but it
cuts off seven miles of navigation
along the winding channel o1' the river.
As you sail up and down the river
you travel sou ieet to save seven
miles. Seven miles amount to 36,960
feet, so you see there is a great saving
in time and distance and money.
General Butler began the Dutch Gap
canal in the civil war days. Later It
was completed, and it is now in daily
use.
The Dutch Gap canal, with its small
amount of work that saved and is sav
ing an enormous deal of traveling, sug
gests a lesson applicable to our daily
lives.
Are there not short cuts that we can
take that will save us labor? Not alone
in the physical aspects of life, but in
our daily mental and moral dealings?
For instance, there is your new
neighbor. He is a stranger in your
community, and he may need help.
As the daily windings of your life
and his approach, can you not dig a
canal through the intervening heights
of ignorance of him and his family
without waiting for the formal intro
duction of pastor or physician or busi
ness intermediary?
He may be a right good fellow. Dig
a canal to him.
If you find him unworthy , later it
will be an easy thing to block up the
canal.
Or you may have had a misunder
standing with another neighbor or with
your brother or sister or relative.
As the rivers of your lives meet, cut
through the land which blocks the way
and straighten the channel.
Perhaps who knows you may find
him shovel in hand at the other end.
digging his way through to you.

We think we know all about tasting
and smelling, but these are the most
elusive senses and so closely allied that
they have been called the "wedded
senses." If you wish to be convinced
of the closeness of their connection
notice the next time you have a severe
cold in the -head and ascertain how
little taste you get from your food.
even though it be the most "tasty.
In fact, flavor and odor are great-
puzzles to all of the physical investiga
tors. The preponderance of evidence
points to the suggestion that all taste
and odor are brought about by chemical
changes in the ends of the nerves hav
ing to do with these sensations. Smell
has been termed "taste at a distance,"
and the way in which anything is ap
preciated by the cells of taste and
smell is precisely alike.
The infinitely small particle that
reaches the nose must first be dissolv
ed in the mucous covering of the olfac
tory bulb before its odor can be caught
and transferred to the end of the ol
factory nerve. The same is the case
with the thing that is to be tasted.
It. too, is dissolved in the juices of
the mouth and then makes its way to
some one or more of the taste cells,
when the chemical change takes place
which sets up a sensation in the gus
tatory nerve, arid we really taste the
substance and announce to ourselves
or others how it tastes.
Most persons think that as the tongue
is the chief organ of taste you could J
taste anything placed anywhere on the
tongue. But this is far from being
true. There are three chief kinds of
papillae of taste on the tougue, and
anything touching it on these papillae
is tasted, but if it touches any spot be
tween these it is not tasted at all. The
filiform papillae are at the tip of the
tongue and at the sides, and each one
contains special taste "buds," which
dissolve something of the substance
put on them and transfer the sensation
to the underlying nerve of taste.
Then there are the fungiform capil-
lae. looking like little musnrooms
(whence the name), with taste buds of
their own, and there are also the cir
cumvallate papillae, only seven or ten
in number, lying toward the back or
the tongue, forming a V, with the apex
pointing toward the throat These are
little mounds with moats arouna tnein
and taste buds lying in the moats to
catch whatever particles of food may
reach thus far sufficiently dissolved
to be tasted.
The middle of the tongue and tne
hard palate have no taste at all, and
thfs is the reason that if we are to
take a bitter powder and it is carefully
placed at the center of the tongue it
can be washed down quickly by a gulp
of water, leaving no taste in the
mouth.
The taste bulbs have been carefully
measured, and it is found that they
are 1-300 of an inch long and 1-800 of
an Inch broad, oval in shape, some
thing like a small Florence flask. The
proof that tasting is a chemical proc
ess lies in the fact that anything that
is to be tasted must be soluble, for
the unchewed food or hard coated pill
is not tasted. Tastes have been classi
fied as sweet, bitter, acid and saline,
and experiment has shown that we
taste salty foods most rapidly in .17
of a second and that sweet acid and
bitter take longer. -the last requiring
.258 or a second ror perception.
Another peculiarity of taste is that
after a very strong taste of any kind
we cannot so easily distinguish slight
er flavors. The nerve energy has been
exhausted for a time, and only after
a little does it return. If you have
eaten sweets for dessert yon must
drink some water to clear the mouth
of the sweet taste or your coffee will
taste very bitter, no matter how much
sugar you put into it The profes
sional tea taster knows that the gusta
tory nerve becomes exhausted, for aft
er a series of tastings he stops to give
his nerve of taste an opportunity to re
turn to its normal condition.
In taste and smell alike all Individ
uals differ. The same food does not
taste precisely the same to any two in
dividuals, any more than the same per
fume smells the same. There is a gen
eral resemblance, but the expert who
has trained his sense of smell or taste
perceives finer distinctions than the
person who has given little attention
to these special senses and their de
velopment. Arguments are of no avail.
as. was recosrnized in the popular and
ancient proverb. "There is no disput
ing about tastes." There is no scien
tific explanation of the fact that one
person likes onions and another abhori
them. Some persons are fond of
olives only after they have cultivated
the taste. The only suggestion of an
explanation is that in some persons
the chemical changes brought about
by onions or olives are pleasing, while
in others they are offensive. It is the
gustatory nerve that tells the tale, but
little is understood about it New
