Mr. Bates will buy supplies, Ink, paper, metal, etc., in large quantities for members of the association. He will go into the market representing twenty or more dallies and will be able to talk business and demand the lowest prices on goods. Salesmen for different houses are already com ing to Mr. Bates and talking in an entirely different tone of voice from that used to the lone country pub lisher. All papers In this association must first Join the Audit Bureau Associa tion of the United States, which will examine their books and give guar anteed circulation figures. These figures, together with advertising rates based thereon, are placed in Mr. Bates' hands and he maintains a continuous aggressive campaign with All national advertisers for business. He will have In his possession com plete data as to guaranteed circula tion and rates. Once a year Mr. Bates makes a trip east to line up the season's business personally with agencies and advertisers, many of whom he knows from long acquaint ance. No jommlsslon will be charged on business secured by him, the reg ular monthly dues of the association covering all expense, except any com missions charged by regular agen cies. . . Oregon publishers are to be con gratulated on getting into the "big business'' class with this kind of an organization and manager. mothers from the home to the field." COMMUNITY PROSPERITY. Encourage investments of private capital on equal terms with what is called public ownership: The people have a right to full benefits of both systems, and open competition is best for Interests' of all. Private capital should not be used to prevent public ownership nor pub lic ownership to destroy private In vestments. Discourage laws and regulations that impose hardships on industries or prevent employment of largest number at labor. Leave as much to Individual enter prise and initiative as possible so as to get the highest efficiency of every citizen. Keep down the number of offices, the overhead expense, and inject as much business as possible into public service. Public expenditures for needed Im provements honestly expended are a benefit to every citizen and to all properly. Do not pass laws to stop the peo ple moving about, spending money or doing business with each other on legitimate lines. Support the home industry, the home enterprise and the home mer chant as the golden rule of commun ity prosperity. PROGRESSIVE- JITNEY SERVICE. The first jitney bus line, operated in connection with a traction system, has gone Into operation at Oak Park, a suburb of Sacramento. Two large twelve-ptssenger motor buses will operate on schedule In connection with city car lines, giving and taking transfers to and from all parts of the city. These Jitneys under regulation of the city commission will run on regular routes and hours and give service to suburban districts not sup plied with street car lines. They are ' put on end being tried out by the Taclfic Gas & Electric Co., which .also owns the street car system. This is a step forward in the solu tion of the Jitney problem and will be watched with great interest. Arguing for fewer churches In a city that has too many churches, a citizen of Payette, Idaho, says: "You can pull a bigger load with a team of strong, well fed horges than with a big bunch of half-starved ones." mm 1 S rts. Mch, a tor ao eta. rU'ETT PEABODV bCQ. INC. W !. Cottage Grove Sentinel: "No eight-hour law has been enacted. The so-called eight-hour law will not shorten a single second the working day of railway trainmen. Trainmen will work the same hours they have always worked but will receive a greater pay for such work, with the exception of some who have been working less than eight hours, and who may now have to work a full eight hours to get pay for eight hours." The county authorities are Investi gating several cases of delinquency among young girls which have, been reported, several In Medford and one or two in Ashland. The chief com plaint is that the parents are unable to keep the girls from runu.ng away from home to attend dances. In Ash land a noticeable feature of the pub lic dances is the fact that many of the mothers accompany their daugh ters and, in fact, seem to enjoy the dances Just as much as the young folks. ferred to above, appears to have been drawn on a basis of what its advo cates believe it will accomplish. They show that It will have disastrous ef fects. Boiled down, the law would take from the man who has and give to him who has not. It makes no difference if the man who has ac quired it by frugality and industry and he who has not is merely pay ing the penalty of his lack of effort. The bill Ib not popular in Washing ton county, where people have found that industry will do what this law purports to accomplish, and extended argument is perhaps unnecessary." BALLOT TITLES CONFUSING. "The Full Rental Value Land Tax and Homeseekers Loan Fund Amendment" is the ballot title for measures 306 ind 307. The "Rural Credits Amendment" Is the ballot title for amendments 31S and 319. There is danger that these titles may be confusing. The word "loan" in numbers 306 and 307 may lead some voters to believe that it is the "Rural Credits Amendment." Voters should be very careful in distinguishing be tween these two measures on elec tion day. There Is the widest possible dif ference in the effect which the adop tion of these two measures would have. Amendment numbers 306 and 307 Is a single tax measure and has for its purpose the confiscation of private ownership in land. ' Amend ment numbers 31S and 319 is just what its name implies: an amend ment giving rural credits or cheap money to the farmers. The first amendment, numbers 306 and 307, would simply ruin the state of Ore gon if it were adopted. The last amendment, numbers 31S and 319, will build up Oregon by giving the farmer cheap money with which to bring his farm up to a high state of improvement and cultivation. Yes. People's Forum Pemnnd For Houses. There is a constant demand for houses to rent, especially furnished ones and modern bungalows or cot tages. Why don't some of our mori eyed people put up some up-to-date cottages to rent to tourists? It would not only pay them big interest on their money, but would be a great help to the city, and that is what we should all work for, not merely for our personal gains, but the growth and prosperity of our city beautiful.
