WE HAVE, TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT - ..What i$ the greatest single industry in the United States? Figures have been produced to show that it is the steel industry, and again that it is the farm industry, and again that it is the automobile industry or the moving pictures And all these guesses are wrong, v - The greatest industry in' the United States is governfent, and it is growing faster than any other. Taxation in the United States now taxes 14.3 cents of every American's dollar, or to put it in terms employed by .the national budget committee, every American engaged in a gainful occupation works 50 days in the year for the support of the government. For every 12 per sons so employed, one person is employed by government, fed eral, state, county and municipal. The total number employed by government, according to the figures of the national -indus- trial conference board employed or paid, for the total includes pensioners is 3,400,000, and they receive from government, in round figures, $4,000,000,000 a year. , This represents a tax of $34 '"' "year on every man,"; woman and child in the country. Eliminating all but workers,1 the tax on that class for the single purpose of meeting government's pay roll rises to $91 for each person gainfully employed. Other costs of government swell the total of taxation far beyond this, of course. j v T- Government in the United States is out of its bounds. It is no longer a political institution, discharging duties strictly political, but has gone, into business, into industry and into the .control and regulation of affairs that do not concern it It has fared far from the ideal of Thomas Jefferson, who declared: "That government governs best vthich governs least." We have not returned to normalcy , , 1 We have not gone all the way back to normalcy. We have made a good deal of progress on the way back, considering the peak of war times. But there is a long way yet to go, if we are to even approach the basis of normalcy that was in the minds and practices of the fathers of the Republic-- With only strictly democratic and representative institu tions - :' i '. . ' ' '""j: :' ' . : ' :1 " f ;' - Every thirteenttt worker in employments supported .ion taxes paid by the other twelve looks like an undue proportion. .The other twelve are apt to think the number might be cut 'down, instead of being constantly increased, 'iZ-vl';:-.-i-, 1 1 : They are apt to think that the really necessary work of government might be . performed with, less employees ; that business methods are lacking. They are right! They are. That is the reason why Henry Ford, supposed to represent 'straight and efficient business methods, gets so many straw votes. : :: 1 j; : '.'. l ::v r -L "';"?:.l-f ! I ' That is the reason why many people in Oregon hesitate to vote to sustain the state income tax bill; fearing that the ad ministration of the proposed law would involve a new army of state employees; that the cost of collection would be very much too large to counterbalance the benefits claimed! by those whc favor that method of raising additional revenue; or, as they claim, provide a substitute for some taxes, already collected. SENSIBLE MOTHERS We notlea that a Chicago meet ing declared that children's lives had been'' lengthened 1 0 year by sensible mothers. This means by mothers who have had the oppor tunity and taken the. pains to get hygienical Instructions for the care of children. Wherever this Is done the children respond and live longer- '1r:.-'.:-'i-7Vi We hope the above paragraph has been 'carefully read, . because we shall proceed to apply- local application. ... Marion county does not have a nurse. Mothers In the out-of-the-way places are not In structed In the rearing' of child- .? ren. ,; They cannot be 'sensible mothers in the Interpretation of j the Chicago standard, but they are mothers who love their children and would give their , lives for ! them. It that could be done. The unprepared ' mother suffers the anguish of losing her children be : cause she does not know, nobody baa shown her how to rear a child. - Hygienically. Marion county could j not make a better Investment than to have a county visiting nurse. THE SPRIQ OF nOPE lit Europe Is not too tar gone, the renewed j offer of Secretary Hughes for American Investiga tion offers an - opportunity to prove Itself.

Germany has been unable to pay this.- American tourists who have fallen under French Influence to the contrary notwithstanding.

Under the present plan, two Judges reside In Portland. The new plan is to ' have one of tho Judges reside In Klamath Falls. We are no more Interested In Klamath Falls than1; in Portland, but we are Interested in taking justice closer to the people. There are enough judges.' What is want ed is the division of the district to as to have the litigants put to as little trouble as possible. By no argument, byj no system of reasoning can two judges be per mitted to remain in Portland. One ought to go to the southern part of the state, it not to Klamatn Falls there are other mighty good towns down there.; PRISOX LABOR - When the Lord said. "Man must gather his living by the sweat , of his brow," it was pronounced as a curse, and now it Is a blessing. When a man goes to the peniten tiary the worst punishment woull be to shut him up1 where he could not work. The' experience is that such persons soon die. " They can not stand confinement. ; When the prisoner has got to work the old question , of compe tition and free- labor jumps : up, but there ought j to be enough things where there is . no conflict. especially at the tf me when there is such a scarcity of labor. The Oregon prison Is trending toward self-support.; This Is ti two-fold blessing; one is, 1 that It relieves the taxpayer, and the other is that It gives the unfortunate a chance to live. It a man is allowed to work In prison he comes out physi cally fit; -If not allowed to fork hecomes out ruined in health and irjrlu TWO DIFFERENT KINDS Friday evening we saw a family alight from a street car. There were three or. four children, all small; One little fellow ran on ahead and sat down on the curb ing. "Get up' you lazy hound!" shrieked his father. Another fath er there was and we saw him Sat urday at the Bame place. His little fellow reached up his tiny hands and said, -"Carry me, daddy!" With a pleasant smile the father said as he picked the youngster up, ?You fat rascal, you're big enough to walk!" '. I These two fathers show, why some children grow up lovely and loving, while others grow up surly and sour. ANOTHER WONDER Oregon has another record breaker as a milk cow. This time it Is St.,Mawes Lads Lady, owned by Harry llif f of " Independence. The test ends on November 1 and the record will be 1033 pounds butterfat. This makes the eighth cow to produce in excess of 1,000 pounds butterfat. The scrub looks mighty scrubby in compari son with such a record as this. A GOOD SELECTION The selection of former Senator Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota as ambassador to Great Britain is a happy one. Mr. Kellogg has wide public experience and possesses an ample private fortune which he is willing to spend. The court of St. James is asking and demand men of tact and ability without provid ing means for their support. It is said that there were 50,000 deer slaughtered in Oregon this year. If this, is the truth, it means the law of the state was shame fully violated, because there could not be anywhere within 40,000 that were bucks . ' I BITS FOR BREAKFAST I . , , - Wanted, tow ! ..

It is like the word NEWS; standing for in formation from the North, East, West and South. Rickreall now has a paved road running north, east, west and south. Since Fri day, the; West Side and Pacific highways meet at Rickreall, and the paved highway between Salem and Dallas passes through Rick rell. There ; will never be any more dull days in Rickreall.

CONCERNING DIVINE REWARDS AND PUNISHMENT (Copyrighted by the San Jose Mercury) TT.IS GENERALLY AGREED that in these latter years there a has been, among the members of Protestant churches espec ially, quite a general renunciation of the belief in an eterna.1 hell of fire and brimstone as a place of punishment for the un repentant wicked. Many thinking religious" people are -anxiously wondering what effect the destruction of this ancient belief in the local hell is to have upon the morals and lives of the fu ture and how it is to affect retribution for sinful life and con duct, how are the evil impulses of men to be restrained? What motive will the ordinary run of Humanity, to say nothing of the ignorant and the especially vicious, have for curbing their brutal natures! Those who deny the existence of hell would not wish to be understood as thus denying the reality of punishment for brutal selfishness and sin. Most intelligent and thinking people find little difficulty in differentiating the cardinal virtues from in justice, wrong and sin. Most of such will alsa agree that reward for righteousness and service and punishment for injustice and vice are a part of the divine order for humanity. They simply refuse to believe that an all-wise, omnipotent God of love created men without the strength to resist the promptings of their un developed natures, arid then because they yielded to temptation, and being all-wise He must have known they would do so, punish them forever in a burning lake of fire, without and re sulting good to them, to Himself or to the world. Reasoning beings refuse longer to believe God to be such a brutal monster as this old dogma makes Himj : ' But who that thinks and reasons and looks about him among the people in the world does not know that there is retribution for evil life and eonduct as sure and certain as the physical laws of the universe. God has made the world arid the laws which govern it so that. goodness, unselfishness, justice and truth have their sure and great rewards, and injustice, baseness and sin their inescapable retribution. When men generally come to understand the law of their being, established in their own in dividual natures, they will need no threats of the fires of hell to make them walk in the straight and narrow way, because they will know that that way! leads unerringly to strength, and health of body, mind and sour, to peace and happiness and suc cess here as -well; as hereafter, while to tread the path of un righteousness as certainly leads to disease, misery, failure, weak ness and death of body, mind; and spirit. Let the church bring the knowledge of these laws i arid of the absolute certainty of their complete execution to the world and they- will .not miss the loss of the old dogma of hell fire. They will not need it. ; ; , The simple and undeniable; truth is that the moral and spirit ual laws of our beings are not only fixed and certain, but they are self-executing. The man who yields .-to- sin gets the imme diate result in dulled senses and intellect and in the resulting lack; of capacity to enjoy anything that is high or pure or normal. If persisted in, such yielding brings inefficiency, misery, failure, weakness and death. Never doubt it. One may think that in some cases this is not true. But he thinks so be cause of his imperfect knowledge of such cases. If he knew the sinner's inner life and could follow him as he sinks lower and lower, he would find that there are no exceptions. Paul was right. 'The 'wages of sin is death." Not only death of the body, but death to all that is pure, high, holy and lovable in human life and character ; death to real success, peace and hap piness ; death to self-respect, to worthy ambitions, to everything that is really worth while. , Besides all this. . God has made us independent and respon sible beings. We 'are accountable for our lives and the use we make of them and our opportunities. If we descend into the moral mire and filth the way! to get out of these is to climb out. Our reason should teach us that Ghrist does not forgive our sins when we are in a condition to weakly return to them. No mat ter what theologians may tell us, our sins are) not forgiven until we have risen above theril 'and commit them no more. The Gospels also tell us that it is not they that call ; loudest tipon Him that inherit the kingdom, but they who halve. His spirit, follow Him in life and render unselfish and loving service to men. This is His ilnmistakeable teaching. .Punishment, then, that results from the infraction of the moral and spiritual laws of the Creator comes to us not because God is angry with us. Neither is the suffering which this dis obedience to the higher laws of our beings brings merely in the nature of expiation for our sinful lives and conduct. It is the Father's rod of correction to make us turn from the fleshly and evil and cling to that which is pure and holy. The intelligent and loving, natural parent does not gratify all the whims and cravings of his child. Instead he teaches the child to partake of. nothing that is sinful or harmful; he forces the child, if need be, to deny himself and to walk in the ways of rectitude, temperance and virtue. So the wise and loving Heavenly Father is calling to our hearts to follow the good, the true and the holy in our daily lives. But if we will not hear or, hearing do not obey, then His rod of correction through His law in us is applied to make ns hear and obey; As wise and obedient children it is our part to trust the All-wise and loving Father, to learn wOiat His will for us is and to yield willingly arid constant obedience. This is still and always will be the way of safety, liappiness and peace. DooK Review By VESA BRADY SHIPlfJUf j j By Vera Brady Shipman i, - i "The Genius," by Theodore Dreiser. Published by Bpnl & Liveright, New York City. Price $3.00 net. In reading Dreiser's sensational story of the love life of genius, ona can but recognize a similarity of purpose to Romaine Holland's masterly "Jean Christophe" a genius apart from life. Dreiser's genius marries early in the story. 12? . a-' ' ' I - 1 V . V! 'A' -VY : r r. THEODORE DREISER 1! U. . : .. ; ; :- ; . r " prefaced with a few minor philan derings, but the story ia the life of this man, married to a woman who, reared respecting conten tions and the world's . approval, blindly lores him through It all, seeking by personal wiles of Inti mate charm to hold that fleeting something we all love- The gen ius psychically is enthralled with Tonttifnl haaul.nf AlvVtaan A maturity hti n llure. He is urged oa by passionate desire for acquisition of beauty still intense ly young. Eugene Witla has not one but a half dozen lores. The author makes' this genius a true artist with an unquestioned ability seeing values in common place, enlightment in city shad ows, yet with this a passionate de sirean Illness incurable because of lack of inborn qualities as well as training. Angela, his wife, a perfect housewife, a child of traditional exemplary living, joins his studio life, worshipful, yet through early contacts with his amourous na ture, realizing yet nerer compre hending, knowing yet nerer know ing why. She meets the confound ing situations as best she can, with womanly instinct of protec tion to her lore, yet always rea lizing the hopelessness of the con stancy of the genius. In' "Jean Christophe," the au thor has made passion subserrient to the genius. It is a French problem adapted to American life In "The Genius," Dreiser has made his despicable hero a mar ried man who In incomplete ful fillment of life; restlessly turns to furtire fields from which a pretty face or shapely ankle shimmers the clouded air. Always sorry for a misplaced lore affair discovered, his pity rests alike on his incon siderate self and his long suffer ing wife. The story is deep in its entireitr and the reader is impressed with the author's sincerity as the life of the genius is unfolded. Such a story is but a page out of life in its ebb. It deals with the folk of socalled professional respectability. whose liasons are secretly condoned but' to whom in the great reckoning which must come to each and every life, the complete1 realization of its folly sad detriment, is orerwhelm lap. , , ' . - " ' , . To quote, "Our social life U so SUNDAY MORNINGOCTOBER 23, 1923 organized, so Closely knit upon a warp of instinct, that we flee that which does not accord with cus tom, usuage, preconceived notions and tendencies which we conceive to be dominant, i , , "We cry 'Uhclean and It -does not matter how inwardly shabby we mav be, we run quickly. It seems a tribute to providence which shapes our ends, which con tinues perfect; in tendency how ever we may overlay its brightness with. mortal corruption." ' And .Eugene WJtla, married lover, is only persuaded to leave the latest victim of his wiles by the threats of business ostracism and social oblivion. "The Genius" is a life story of a man to whom beauty rises above life's responsibilities and in whom is rested the weaknesses op sordid indulgence. Art claims her own in circles of aesthetic values, yet justice weighs' these ralues In the court, of reason. And at such a court will lives of other genii meet their baffling comprehension of the law which is greater than these. "By Scarlet Torch and Blade," by Anthony Euwer, with illustra tions by the author. Published by Gv P. Putnams Sons, New York City. Price $2.00 net. You of Oregon know your An thony Euwer vand his natural style of verse, but your reriewer who lives a distance, feels the pulse of Oregon woods, the horror of forest fire n "By Scarlet Torch and Blade" and the Insistent call of open spaces and home life. His titles are unusual, bringing the novelty of; fresh ideas' quaintly told in rhyme His love for chil dren and animals is akin to com panionship. jYour editor writes me that Euwer is a dweller in the Hood river valley where he lires an out of door life. . His poem, VThe Cat," is realism of Its softly padded claws. Evidently he has lost. a belored dog companion by poison, tor the gem of "The Man Who Poisons Dogs" is ironical in its hatred for fiendish revenge. This little book Is a vision of your northwest, your country of fruit and woods, and Intermingled is the appreciation of things as they are. ' , Sereral short poems ax the end reflect the days of overseas 1919 at Verdun and waiting for the armistice. He knows his daily folk of which he sings, and Ore gon is honored with such a gifted man to sing her praises.: Mr. Euwer; I. shall look forward to a visit with you in the future.

It Is the soul of a woman of aenius communing with itself. Alms, am bitions, handicaps, eccentricities speak out from the strokes of her pen as boldly as would actions' to one in close contact with the au thor. - She writes because she must we feel that. "I need to write," she says, "in order to lire and to make a success of my life eren though '1 should print noth ing. In short, writing, which Is the deepest way of thinking, is equally that of Hring.V y j Unlike other journals, the "Journal of Marie Leneru,, is not a record of events and incidents; it is rather a masterpiece of psy chology. What the author thinks, senses, her reactions, are carefully set down and the person who does not read his most intimate self in its pages must read lightly Indeed.
