There is only one fair way to find out what Oregon dry will do for Oregon. That is by investi gating what Oregon dry has done for those parts of Oregon now dry. So far as can bo leamod in Salem, Oregon City, Hosoburg, Albany, Kugene and other Oro gon dry towns, business has been better in all lines, save that of the saloon, in every dry town. Why, even In Pendleton, which voted wet ufler being dry, but which will probably vote dry, tunny merchants tire now In favor of a dry town nnd declare collections were belter, business better and bud debts fewer when the town wus dry. Building Now Better. In Sulem, building has been greuter since the town went dry. There are but few vneunt houses, and those vacant nre described us "shacks." Practically every suloun has been re-tenunted by other lines of business, and one of the prlncl- Cut saloon sites has been replaced y u fine new building block. Since Salem went dry a 3:20,000 brick building has been erected and a 940,000 business block Is oolno ' Doesn't look as If dry Salem hurt that town, docs it? Bettor Building Beiults. Salem went dry J miliary 1, 1011. The building permits for tho first eight months of 1013. when the town was wet, total 388,925. For the first eight months of 1014 they were $422,385, an Increase of 333,460. Another Instance of u dry town helping businesst Absence of the saloon always means better busb ness, for the money thut once went to the saloon goes Into trade. Checks cashed once in saloons are cashed in stores and part of them nre spent there, in place cf In the saloons. There wjore 2W .nrrcjts ,for .Ue. first seven months of 1013 In Sulem for drunkenness; in 1014 the ar rests totaled only 47 for the same cause. Stores Enlarge Premises, The three largest stores have had to remodel their premises because of increased business, when other towns wet ut that have been com plaining. In Oregon City arrests have de creased GO per cent. Violations of the .state liquor laws (hooliegglng nnd so forth), are now less Ihun one-half. ' You see the saloon men never used to obey the law in jk dry town they have to obey it. Bank Deposits Increase. Deposits in the banks have in creased. There is more building. Bad debts are being cleared up. , Collections are easier. Not one mill check bus been cashed in a saloon. All business men say trade is bet ter. Yhlch answers the question as to why Ihe cru has come from all over Oregon for a dry town. L. Adams, one of the leading Ore- ! gon City merchants, said; I "Since Oregon City went dry, business has much improved. Col lections are easier. I have fewer bad bills on my books than I had u year ago. People now have a ten dency to buy their goods ut home. I I used to cash 15 cheeks on mill pay nignis. now i casn ou. The aboli tion of the saloon has turned u vast sum of money dully into the chan nels of trade In, Oregon City." All of whlc.li answers Ihe ques tion of whether a town is better wet or dry.

RUSSIA'S HOUR PERHAPS tho most significant ev ent slnco tho opening of the tro- inondOlln Klirnnnnn wnr ilrnmn In tho "form" shown by Russia. It wbb to bo oxpected that Qor-J many wouiu oo powerfully aggressive umi uini r ranee wouiu snow brillian cy and dnsh with less steadiness; that tho first month of hostilities would record Victories nnd tlnrnnta for l.nlli sides. Tho first big surprise of tho war came wuon ino uoiRinuB flamed up ngalnst tho invading Oormnns and dolayed for throe weeks tholr march ngalnst Paris. And thoso threo weeks, enabling Franco nnd England to mo blllzo nnd dlsposo tholr forces, gnvo Ittissln hor opportunity, Tho Husslnn mobilization, neces sarily slow and difficult on account of tho vast oxtont of tho country nnd tho lnck of railroads, was accomplish ed In hnlf tho time tho world expect ed. Thus, by tho tlmo tho Oormnns wero ready to assail tho first lino of French national defenses, the Rub slans had crossed tho Herman border nnd wero moving lrrestlbly through East Prussia. Tho rapidity and vigor of that In vasion havo astonished ovory observ er, and must havo struck Germany with dlBinny. Hore, obviously, Is an army very different from tho army that Japan qut.toplocesjn Manchu ria, In preparedness, dlsclplluo nnd moralo. East Prussia was not strongly de fended, Germany possibly expected7 that It would bo occupied by Russia ns ifar as tho Vistula River, by tho tlmo alio herself had struck tho allies a mortal blow In tho west nnd could aparo a strong forco from hor Fronclt campaign to drive back hero oastcrn foe. But Germany did not foresee that boforo she was roally across tho Pronch frontlor Russln would havo swopt East Prussia with tho right wing of nn nrmy of 3,000,000 men. Invaded Austria with the left wing nnd driven n powerful central column toward Posen with n second nrmy or nearly 0,000,000 forming iu tho ronr. Poson Is only 140 miles from Bor lln. With Poson captured, tho capi tal of tho omplro would bo In danger. Tho Russians seem as llkoly to cuter Berlin as tho Germans to ontor Paris. Tho victory of tho (lormatiB In tholr first ronl battlo with tho alltou need not conceal tho fnct that Germany's predicament Is serious. Slio must win quickly or slio may bo ground to plccos hetweon tho gront armies of tho wost and east. Austria cannot help thoro aro tho roinorsoloss Rus sian millions pressing Into Qallcla, with 8orvln at hor back and Italy menacing beyond. And If Gormnny is couquored, Rus sia may win tho supromo crodlt nnd. prostlgo of tho victory. War To The Bitter End; Tone Of Allies Peace Agreement LONDON, Sopt. 18.

By Everott Dean Martin. GENERAL SHERMAN said, "War Is Hell." He meant that war is the greatest ovll that ho could think of. Ho was right, but Sherman was a bolter soldier than a theolo gian. Ho knew more about war than he did about hell. He had already been In war. If anything could bo worso thuu hoi! It Is war. Wo havo been taught that people who suffer In holl aro tho ones that ought to be thero. But the victims of war havo no business thoro. Thoy ought to bo at home, making a living for their families, do ing something useful, and enjoying life. It Ib said that tho people who go to linll rniiMi Hint unlifiimv nlnpft nn n result of their own dellborato choice. But thoso who go to war aro often forced Into It often beaten and il.nrroa.t Inin I. nfVfllnst thMr Uflll. through tho choice, or blundors or selfish ambition of somebody else. Wo understand that in hell, what ever that Is, only tho guilty Buffer.
