It ia not snouch to do ear bit. Wi must do our bast. . Senator Keayoa. rrr - JUNKER AtfD BOLSHEVIK! SATIRISTS said derisively of the French revolution that "It de voured its children." For the . moment it seems possible that German militarism might yet devour its misbegotten offspring, the kaiser. In tho French revolution one group of leaders after another was guil - loUned because it was not radical " enough. The kaiser is not militarist enough to satisfy the war lords. So there Is clamor for a dictator in his , place. At least the censored and 'washed out dispatches say something of that sort, and it Is natural and .probable. . The kaiser Is not a fooL He is a ,.. man of parts, a good deal like Theodore Roosevelt in character, airT ; bltious,. violent but capable at the same time of controlling himself when his Interests are at stake. He ' knows that the longer, the war lasts ' the, worse It will be for his country eodf his dynasty. Hence, with the fighting at an apparent stalemate, he inclines toward peace and modera tion. The war lords, with the crown . prinoe at their heau, are extremist. , Like Insane gamblers they want to - stake j everything on a single throw . of the dice. If they win, the world Is at their feet to plunder and rule. If. they lose they still have the fun of the game. They are ready to drain the cup of fate to the lees. taking no counsel of base' discre tlon. The subdued and docile German . people have thus far taken no part In the war councils of their country. They have paid taxes, fought and starved in meek obedience like a na tion of automata. But the Germans have brains and ! consciences though both have been . dormant too long. They are now wakening, unless all accounts are false, and beginning to ask "why?" Thrones are set trembling the instant , the people begin to ask "why." ( There are accounts of mutinies on the Russian front. Some of the So cialists have unmistakably roused themselves from their dull worship of Karl Marx and -war and begun to, act up to their principles.

Not longr agoti the city was ! in commercial ana industrial gioom. Today, business Is booming. . Money freely circulates Christmas shopping outdid all hibtory of Christmas shopping In Portland. Crowds clamor at business places' for clerks to serve their needs. The air Is surcharged with business optimism. Profits are larger. The volume of tales is greatly augmented. Even with conservation In many lines practiced, buying is active and the best qualities demanded. Vacant houses are filling up.. Rentals are Increasing. The crowds on the streets are moving'swUtly as though they had something to do. Jdlers are lew, and becoming, fewer, . The whole , atmosphere is .one , of buoyancy and drive. - ' . - - - " a : ' There is a tremendous lessSft' in the situation. 'There' are 16,000 men In an industry in which there was no man yesterday; A great shipbuilding industry has sprung up. Its thousands on the'' new" payrolls are receiving big wages.

A nickel is no longer treasured 'and clung to as a last possession. - Money is everywhere and is circulating instead of being hoarded. One. great industry did it. The new shipbuilding payroll wrought the transformation from gloonv to gladness, from inactivity to drive, from pes simism to hope. It is an eventuation that there is no way to misunderstand. Payrolls, payrolls;' payrolls are Ihe way kr prosperity!" an abundance, the way)to business 'and -"plenty thKvay to gladness anicheer. H 1i- - fhe 16,000 workers are creating new wealth at the rate of a million a month. Tomorrow, their creations will be greatly augmented. A-shipyard that The Journal could name had 350 men a few weeks ago ; it has 2000 now, Another with 700 now will have 5000 as soon as the plant can accommodate them and the workers be obtained. The 16,000 workers of today -are fashioning the crude products of the earth, into finished product. The raw materials in the forest and other where are taken at little more than nothing and made by human hands Into implements or enormous value. It is the conversion of rawi resources, into. quicK maae weaim, ana especially m ine case or wooaea ships, nearly the whole is paid out in wages and for material in the immediate community. We are to build 150 ships this year. We may build 200. steel and wood. We are to grow rich on this single great payroll. We are learning through i.ti . i j - k. - n. icitcrs goia wuai payrolls mean. Every house in Portland is worth more. Every business in Portland has enhanced opportanity for profit. Every industry feels the enlivening and heartening touch of this single great payroll. Every investor's holdings are made more secure' with greater chance of profit. Every publio service activity is on safer and more profitable ground. in the light of the change, in the swift jump of Portland from nloom into gladness, is there not appeal for every Portlander with a dollar to invest to think of payrolls, to plan for payrolls, to struggle for Davrolls. to mice lor payroll andtBolshevlkl, the German people may ulUmatelyJget. thelr brains to Amoving.5. If they ever do some of the ; social cataclysms of history may be repeated. This is evidently the con Tlction of President Wilson as re vealed by his appeals in almost every ;publlo utterance to the thought and hopes ; of freedom in the German masses. The present rumblings in kaiser- domr are the r strongest' of ali i in centlves for America; to go forward ' In. her war program with the utmost vigor: , y The Portland publio schools are or- ganizing for a war savings stamp drive.. State Superintendent Churchill is planning the same thing for all the Oregon schools. It Is a most useful ahd, iracycalftUTposeir But th school : pupils are not the only ones ; who should s learn thrift by lending their savings to the country to help, fight the war. It is every- DOdys job and everybody's privilege, Will it be red like the Indians, with high cheek bones and long, coarse, black hair? Many eminent scientific men pre dict that our children in a century or two will be physical replicas of the Indians. The Roosevelts of that coming day will look like old Te cumseh. The Websters will be twin brothers to Sitting BulL The Wilsons will be images of Chief Jo seph who, if we may believe Colonel C. E. S. Wood, was the mirror of chivalry as well as a competent fighter. The Indians were not aboriginees here. They came from somewhere else, quite likely from Mdngolia across Bearing straits. They do not look a great deal like any Asiatics we have seen.-but we must remem ber that tlme?tnd environment have altered them. " Time and environment will also alter us and, since the same causes are at work, we may expect the effect to be similar. There is solid ground for expecting our grandchildren of remote generations to resemble Hiawatha and Minnehaha in feature and color. ' Shall we weep over the prospect? Not at all. The Indian blood, where it has mingled with the British, has been a good strain in 'American life. We know that " some of the "first families of Virginia" run their pedi grees back to Powhatan and his charming daughter, Pocahontas, and are proud of their lineage, as well they may be. The Uncontaminated Indian was proud, honest, truthful and lazy, all of which virtues are the boast' of our own plutocracy and the British aristocracy as well. He lived upon these shores for many centuries without any trusts, politicians, jails or saloons. He had no palaces but neither had he any slums. He had no labor unions.

" What will j be ! the loior of the American . race whcnVit is finally finished in the laboratory - of ; time? don the old go-it-alone method. They are working together. To point the -moral we could tell the reader of a fine potato distriot not a great many miles from Port land where, the farmers have been pianung considerable tracts for many years. Some years they get a good price. Some years there is no sale for the potatoes, which rot or are fed 1o swine. Never ia any year have the farmers a word to say about the price they get That is all settled for them by speculators and middlemen. They have followed this hit-6r-njiss way for 50 years or more without a thought that there is-anything'better. In every section of Oregon and Washington where . potatoes are grown an association would yield great benefit to the farmers. It would enable them to study the mar ket systematically;-., introduce im proved cultural methods, obtain bet ter seed and, to : a certain extent. better their own prices. The larger me association and the bigger the crop ii controlled, the. nearer it could come to price fixlpg. Market ing power is like banking power. It increases rapidly with the volume of the commodity. ' Good potato seed is one of the prime needs of Oregon and Washing ton, une old stock has "run out' oaaiy almost everywhere. It is so decadent that the vines rarely pro duce the tiny green spheres bearing tne true potato seed. A vigorous as sociation can do a great deal more in the way of replenishing seed than any individual can unless his means are opulent. ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORS I T may loolf like sipping too much honey from one flower to again refer to the Agricultural Bulletin of Crook and Deschutes counties It is an extraordinarily good piece oi wor. wny couia not every county, or every two counties, pub lish one ? j This from Crook aid Deschutes is the neatest sort of j an eight page magazine with some advertisements. and quantities of live reading matter.1 It is edited by the county agricul tural agent, Mr. Ward. The two counties for which this magazine speaks have an agricultural council whose seven members are named in the bulletin. The council has an executive committee which unless we misread the report of their proceedings, is a good deal more than a debating .club. An interesting item in the bulletin refers to the development of the mutual s: aid and confidence , idea in that part of the state. At an ajrri cultural meeting ; held last t month County Agent Ward made his annual report, in the course of which he mentioned work he had done for the cow: testing association and; the po tato growers' association.

The word wave" Is less used, though Jt means more and Is shorter. A wave ia the total onward movement set ud bv an immense number of vibrations: It is thus that light travels. Count less ether partioles are vibrating in unison. Eacn particle passes Its own motion on to another and comes to rest. Thus the vibrations contlnu ally die aqd are resurrected, while tne wave sweeps on and never dies, A wave is Ukft th(' lifef .a nation or tne wnoie world, whioh is ever lasting. The life of an individual, which passes away from him Into the next generation, is like a vibra tion. Sound travels like light, only ths vibrating particles are not ether but air. Just as waves of light give us tne narmony and discord of color, so waves of sound give us music. Light waves can be made to pour out of the most inert material if we heat it hot enough. Even com mon clay will do it, though the tem perature must be high. - Little by little as the heat filters through its substance the clay seems .i vuange iis, nature, , taking on strange angelicr attributes. First it emits dull red waves like streams' of blood. As the- heat rises, the colors purify, cleansing themselves, as it were, of dross, and striving toward the heavenly white. At last the bloody hue Is gone The way has lost its earthiness, its lust, its dead inertness ; It , fills Hhe air with waves immaculately white.Heat did the , miracle. It is the heatof fire or ' passion- that sets lhe atoms vibrating and builds up mighty waves to sweep through time and space.
