TARIFF REVISION ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY rates hare been about doubled since they were taken over by the gov ernment; but the increase In oper ating expense has been still greater. The ministry of the transport points out that another increase in fares and freight rates is imperative. 'The declared policy of the gov ernment," says the report, 'Is that the railways are to be maintained upon a self-supporting basis, and are not to be subsidized by the tax payer." An appeal then follows for an immediate consideration of the request for permission to increase rates because the roads are running behind at a rate of nearly 11,000, 600 a day and these deficits wil! have to be made up also from the increases allowed. There is a growing demand in Great Britain for the return of the roads to private ownership and op eration. The high freight and pas senger rates are a serious hindrance tc Industry; and the longer the gov ernment operates the lines the great er the muddle grows. Lloyd George would have done well to follow President Wilson's precedent in re turning the roads to their owners an soon as possible after the Versail les treaty was signed. could not.

Both pres idential candidates have declared for actual participation by the vice president . in cabinet deliberations and other affairs of the government. In the past, with the exception of Theodore Roosevelt, who' was vice president, under McKinley, the vice presidential office was a sort ot a political shelf . upon which to place : aspiring gentlemen that guiding spirits in the party wished to for- ever relegate to oblivion. That was why Roosevelt was placed there, but he escaped. , 8 poniuU Jap WeX$l.flOWji Quality Coffee of America!

Marion county Is getting out of the mud, and up onto the high ground of rising prosperity.-, - Of course, the Oregon legislature at the next session will regulate traf fic on the paved roads.

The Democrats are not going to be as particular regarding the source of their campaign funds as they thought they would be. Some time back William Gibbs McAdoo came up to the surface and blew off some steam to the effect that there would be no purchased president in Ameri- I ca and that the spotlight of pitiless publicity would be directed upon all campaign contributions. Even at that time political sleuths were try ing to locate the. wherewithal and backing ot the McAdoo boom. Now that the nominations have j been made and a new man a White man is in charge of the Democratic organization, it is announced that any restrictions as to the size and ' source of campaign contributions are so easily circumvented as to be J useless. The national committee ! will therefore receive any funds in trusted to its care, reserving only the .right to scrutinize their origin, if possible, to avoid the appearance of any obligation on the part of the candidate to any individual or in terest. The anti-saloon league and the distillers trust may therefore be approached with equal facility.
