Circulation Department, 683 Job Department, 683 Society Editor, 10$ Entered at the Postoffice In Salem, OUR DEBT TO "On the ballot tomorrow there will he submitted to the yoters of the'state the bonus hill for the men who saw actual service in, the great war. It goes almost without saying that the bill will pass. ' "At every newspaper reader known, the bill contains two provisions; first, $15 in cash for each month of actual service, Jmt limited to $500 in any case; second, a loan f $3000 on pproved security at 4 per pent interest per annum, the prin cipal to be reduced 2 per cent each year. "The Oregon soldier gave to thisstate as a part of the nation a service whose value cannot $e computed in dollars, buf if you wish to count up merely tre value of the time he lost which but for the war would have been devoted to some gainful pursuit, you will find that the bonus is only a small fraction of bis financial sacrifice. ,i "This bonus should be regarded as a debt of honor and a tribute of gratitude to the men who did their share toward sating, the world from military autocracy. The w ay to show gratitude is to go to the polls tomorrow and mark the ballot, Number 302, Yes." The above, from the Portland Telegram of last night, puts the matter very well and states it briefly ; and it is copied as a good thing in the nature of a last wordr 5 But one. thing should be added 1 ' And that is the statement thst this is not primarily a bonus bill: that is a small feature of it, and that feature will be little used. i;Itwill be used scarcely at all hy the Salem ex-service men. t A recent meeting of them in Salem was unanimous in the expression that only the loan feature would be used, with the exception of one man, and that man will use neither feature, because he does not need either. . I So this is properly a soldier ltfan bill; and as such there should, be no votes against it. What a fine thing it would be if Oregon would again go over the top with a full and uuani 1 mous vote in favor of the soldier loan hill today ! V Vote yes right-down the line, and you will make no mistake, and you will be proud of having assisted in five victories for the good and glory of your state. ; .

Poland has come In for consid erable rrlticiftm for disturbing the peace of Europe at a time when the alliejj arc bending every ef fort toward quieting things down And few.'randid newspapers in the United States have anything to withdraw;. At the same time, it must be; conceded that Poland'? government has attempted to act squarely- unfortunately it has esNatlonalBanky OREGON been unable to control the pas sionate people. A presentation of Poland's case has recently been made in this country. It is inter esting to examine It. The Poles pay the allies gave them the worst of it in their disputes with the Czechs and the Tkrainians In 1 S 1 1 . Then, they declare. they were duped over Ianzig. the port vhlch means so much to them. In their l.outs with Kussia they were disappointed with the action of j the allies. The tipper Silesia trouble followed. At Warsaw it is maintained that they have been dealt with unfairly. According to their government "the Big Four"' once practically promised to give it to Poland outright. The pro gram was changed and an immed iate plebiscite was decided on Two years passed and rothlng was done. Finally, when the plebis cite was taken, absentee German voters were allowed to come in in droves and have a say in the case. Despite all this and not withstanding provocatiive action by Germans, the election went off quietly. Poland asserts that it received a majority of the votes In 662 out of S8S communes ly ing to the east of the river Oder and that the treaty of Versailles provides that the result Is to be determined by that vote. It is insisted on behalf of the govern ment that it has done all It could do to prevent the uprising in upper Silesia. The obvious an swer Is. of course, that It has not done enough. GANDHI AXI READING. Two of the outstanding person alities of the Drltlsh empire are alout to clash on an issue which goes to the root of the question of whether any empire can Ions maintain itself in the present state of world opinion. The con test Is not to be waged In Lon don or een In Europe, for the fate of empires Is decided In dis tant climes, though recoils in duch a fray are felt throughout he entire structure Immediately. The principals in this struggle are Lord Reading, head af tho 'irltlsh government In India, and iandhl. leader of the widespread iwaraj-sabha (self government) eovement in that land. Hoth received their training in he best KnrjIUh universities, both re able lawyers, both have vast -wrrs of srerch, both are or ntals. There the similarity endc Reading worships and uses like master an organized, system of aw and industry.. He has the wish devotion to the establish- order so long as it Is fair to vard the Jew. He has practically - Minions and always proceeds with the highest possible mobili- tinn of ma'erial forces. Gandhi, by contrast, is a genu e oriental, a mystic, and is not vraid to use his fatal gift of eloquence to stir up all classes India. As against the mate alism of Reading, he seeks to iring Into play the religious fer vor of the most fanatical race on he earth. He is preaching a doc rine which has always sounded strange to the westerner, but h'ch has long been dear to the rlental non resistance. He is calMng upon his people o do a thing which, if widely in ulged In. would quickly over iow the existing regime. D t use Hritlsh courts, gods hools or wis, he says, and d t enlist in the British army, ngland's rule rs!s on the nat. vldierv. ttritish schools are tl agencies through which It I ought to foster lo'tv to ' niplre. Finally, under the pres nt system, ttritish courts and trade channels must be utilized by he natives. The idea of self-determination, let loose during the war, bit into the mind of India and Gandhi is stimulating that Idea. Why. he asks. should 320,000.000 people be held down by 100, 000? As far as he Is concerned there Is only one thing which the Prltish can give to India and It Is the very thing which England cannot afford to grant indepen dence. He cares for no sops, par liamentary, literary or otherwise He insists upon India for the In dians, echoing that mounting de mand for Asia for the Asiatics. Thus the two leaders move Into noaition: Reading fortified by his -rifntal Instincts and backed by FUTUREDATs" Jnn 7 Tnvlir lHamatie ttonart "wit WiHamaM I'airmtjr prrnt .talma Tartar in foil rt.

MISIC AMI FUVKItS. A professor it! Wisconsin as serts that music is a proper diet for flowers. They thrive upon it and the notes leave their Im press on the blossoms. He de clares that sympathetic music hoothes and yet stimulates the rof:e. Presumably a cello inter pretation of "The Heart of a Rose " would Increase the chest measurement of a Paul Nevron or add to the sweetness of a Ma man Cochet. It would take some sweet mu sic to Improve the miles of La France lined curbs of-Salem. If music will do so much for our flowers, a Sousa concert should make our vegetables grow to beat the band. Probably the onion has alredy gained some of its tearful strength through lis tening to Nellie Melba singing Tosti's "Good-bye." There is a fair field for speculation and the phonograph people may soon be supplying us with records especi ally calculated to stimulate the growth of our spinach. Ol'It LEGISLATIVE LADY. Alice Robertson, congresswom an from Oklahoma, reaffirms her position as an anti-suffragist and declares that the work of con gress is of a kind that makes it peculiarly and properly a man's job. It does seem funny that the only lady we have In the national legislature should be one hold ing the opinion that women should not vote or hold office. Still funnier is the fact that she is doing more to give the He to her argument that almost ajiy woman who has Invaded the capi tal. She seems to be making good as a representative and is received on terms of complete equality with the men. Yet she admits and Insists that she is merely a congressional accident, not to be repeated. LONG SHOTS. Miss Alice Robertson of Okla homa, the only lady member of congress, declares that women are born gamblers. Measured by the men they marry they are certainly ready to take any kind of chance in the matrimonial lottery. GREAT QUEST. A Pittsburgh man is heading a salvage corps to Egypt and the Holy Land with the idea of re covering some f the supposedly iron chariots with which Pharaoh ".ssayed to cross the Red Sea. That seems a foolish quest when a man can buy a new Ford for around $800. A QUIZ. (With apologies to Mr.-Edison.) How long Is a piece of string? Are guinea hens born in Italy? Where does night go at day Uak? Why has a potato eyes? Where does your lap go when ou stand up? Why has a comb teeth? Where does the light go when ou put out the gas? How high is up? Why has corn ears? Why has a brush hair? Why is paris green? Why is a circle round? Where is nowhere? How much does tho subway? Why is water wet? Why has a pickle warts?- Joe Schneider in Brooklyn Eagle. THE MOTOR TOVR. The inexpensive motor tours of a few days length, which are te coming every year more common, have a value not always appreci ated by those who have not ex perienced them. Part of the ben efit Is In the effect on our morale; the compulsory change in what occupies our minds Th men'al stimulus it wonderful. Our mind nrd rest and change more than our physical being. We get it in lelightful degree in going to new places: look In tr on strancf vens; satisfying th craving for adventure; finding relief from th daily routine; storing up plfasin suggestions; bringing bark rho'o, graphs of the tour for refreshing cur memory; learning by what w is twine done in other part:; of the world.
