For even though "Acid-Mouth" is a slow-working1 condition it has the power to destroy all of the teeth unless it is checked. 95 in every 100 persons are said to have "Acid-Mouth." The best way to counteract the condition is to combine twice-yearly visits to your dentist with the twice-a-day use of Pebeco Tooth Paste.

If Oregon wants quick action in de veloping its arid lands, then Oregon should get behind the bill of Congress man N. J. Sinnott. of the Second Ore gon District, rather than the measure proposed by Secretary of the Interior Lane, declares Jay L'pton. president of the Oregon Irrigation Congress, which is to hold its session Thursday. Friday and Saturday at the Imperial Hotel. The congress will consider matters which deal with the reconstruction pe riod and will probably suggest certain matters which they will ask the Legis lature to take up. "1 am nonplussed at the apathy and inertia displayed by the people west of the Cascade Mountains toward the only real and tangible plan which has so far Leen conceived to secure devel opment of the arid, swamp and logged off lands of Oregon." says Mr. L'pton. "The plan is the bill Introduced by Representative Sinnott. of Oregon, by Ahich fl.ooQ.O90.0uO is to be appropri ated through the Reclamation Service for the building of farms In the IS Western states. Instead of Indorsing this plan, which Is real and has meat in it. a lot of people and newspapers are giving their encouragement to a naif-baked, new-fledged scheme pro posed by the Secretary of the Interior, from which the Eastern and Southern rtates will materially profit, and which was never intended to benelit the state of Oregon. "Both measures are designed to pro- vld-: homes for returning soldiers and where the results to be desired are the same, the people of Oregon should sup port the measure wMch will help Ore gon. "The Reclamation Service has S.000. 000 acres surveyed In this state: It has the equipment and the organization and can go to work carrying out the long made plans which have been held up for want of money. If Mr. Sinnott s bill is enacted, the funds will be avail able and the Reclamation Service ran get busy without delay. "On the other hand, the measure of the Secretary of the Interior calls for an involved organization, an organization in each state, and any amount of red tape. If Secret try Lane's measure pre vails rather th.in that of Representa tive Sinnotl's. Oregon can sit down and wait for many years before Its waste anas are made to bloom and become productive. For the life of me, I can not comprehend why Oregon should not be shouting for the passage of the Sin nott bill. And then tr.ero is every prob ability that Mr. Sinnott will be chair man of the public lands committee next session, m nich will be another reason . why if this bill Is passed he can see that it Is lived up to. Fred X. Wallace, who has charge of the Tumalo project. Is secretary of the Oregon Irrigation Congress. Mr. Wal lace, who is Just recovering from a severe attack of influenza, makes vir tually the same statement regarding the Sinnott and Lane bills voiced by Mr. Upton. 1918 FEES SHOW INCREASE County Clerk's Office Kxpense Gain 815,000.

Young Woman Ot Damascus Likens Ilcr Countrymen to Irish All Want to Be Leaders. "There are 200,000 Syrians in Amer ica and evervone has done more than his bit in the war," says Miss Sumayeh Attlyeh. late of Damascus, who Is at the Benson. "The Syrians at home are looking to President Wilson and Eng land to prevent their country from being divided. They know that Amer ica does not want colonics. They know that England knows how to treat her colonics better than other nation and they will ask that England take charge of Syria until the people are capable of self-government. 'A revolution in Syria will soon be launched that appears to be the first thing nations are doing these days and It will be against division. The Syrians are a good deal like the Irish, every one wants to be a leader and no one wants to be a follower, but in time the Syrians will be capable of main taining their independence." Miss Attiyeh left Damascus before the war, coming to this country to study medicine, with the intention of returning to her native land to prac tice. The war changed all that. She doesn't even yearn to return to little old Damascus now other than to eee her relatives.

On Government ownership and Gov ernment control the hotel men were emphatic and will advise Oregon mem bers in Congress of their opinion re garding these matters. The contention is that as hotel men they are in a position to know of the discomforts and inconveniences suf fered by the traveling public, the need less expenses that are heaped on through Governmental inefficiency and the tremendous damage that is being done to the hotel industry throughout the country, one of the first five among all industries in point of investments.

It is known, however, that there will be, during the month of June, a mam moth celebration to be known as the Victory celebration, and plans for this event already are under way.

SALEM. Or., Jan. 6. (Special.) During the past 18 months more than J2.0O0.000 In Oregon irrigation district bonds have been sold, while during the seven preceding years not a bond ol this kind was disposed of. This con dition is due to the 1917 irrigation district statute, according to Engineer Cupper, in a letter sent to a Chicago! bonding-house today. He credits the Oregon statute with being the best on the statute books of any state in tbe Union. "The irrigation district law of this state was entirely re-enacted at the 1917 session, and I believe I can say without fear of contradiction that it is the best statute of its kind on the statute books of any state," wrote Mr. Cupper. "Realizing that irrigation securities had lost their standing and, in fact, were in absolute disrepute on account of Irrigation failures, we have endeav ored to place- irrigation on a sound business basis in this state. While we are, of course, much interested in the disposal of irrisation securities, we ask that these securities be given only the same scrutiny and consider ation that are given other municipal securities.
