The f ac pry j's owned by a close corporation; three men who believe n their product and understand how to make it, and have no itock 'for sale. They are building up their factory from the tales'Jpf their products, selling mainly to the big bakeries of Portland, for which trade they have not so far been able to make snough starch. The concern also makes a lot of by-product f starch, including even the finest kind of face powder V 5 Taking the lowly spud and turning it into an element that s fit for use in enhancing the beauty of the finest lady in all mr fair land of fair ladies. ; . i L 3 t ' ' The Statesman has referred, to this potato factory before, md iexpeets to refer to it with more particulars as to its pro cesses in the near future. - h" I !Prof; L.

Advoeated-by Anti-Saloon League.) i r ; - Hi upheld mil prohibition legislation as a member of the Oregon The once powerful United States senate Is cowed by a few men of the type of Senator Wheeler of Montana, Wheeler was Indicted and the senate was forced to white wash him. It was the most high handed thing ever done by any American congress. But we are informed that, the courts are not going to be intimidated, and the case will be tried on Its merits, j This whitewash by the senate reminds us of a story that used to be told. A man was being tried by a jury on a very serious charge. He' had no defence, but as the jurymen went out he said in ah almost inaudible voice something to ' the foreman. In 10 minutes the jury came back with a verdict of acquittal. The judge went , to his hotel and went to bed, but he could not sleep. He got to think ing about it and wondered what the man said. Finally he could stand it no longer, and had the man calied to his room. He ex plained that the verdict was final, and tnere was no way In the world to re-open it, but he had a con suming curiosity to know what the man said to the jury, because It was ; a surprising verdict and, re-ascertaining the pledge of Im munity, the man said: "I simply said, 'We bad men must stand to gether " - There' has been a great deal of conversation about the price Can adians receive for their wheat. It is generally believed that they re ceive more than we do. However, this la not true. They raise wheat cheaper than we do. Their land la new, ; and cheap. Our land is getting old and expensive. They are vigorous In prosecuting their crops and they are very apt to put ours in a slipshod way. : Authoritative figures are now at hand from - Ottawa, the Canadian capital. The farmers of the Can adian prairie provinces received an aggregate income of 1381,600.647 on exports from their farms as a result of 1923 operations. Alberta farmers took the lion's share, re ceiving $233,814,304; Saskatche wan farmers came next with $17li- 557,750, and farmers of Manitoba came third with a total income of 86.228,593. . ; Saskatchewan exported 206,- 1 i 000,000 bushels of wheat at an averape price of 65 cents a bush el..! Alberta came next In wheat sales, having the largest crop In its history and disposing of 167,- 765,084 bushels at 65 cents a bushel; Manitoba farmers, having a shorter rail haul to market, re ceived an average price of 67 cents bushel for their wheat. These figures are considerably under the average prices received by the wheat growers of the northwest on the 1923 crop. A GOOD SKLKCTIOX Our schools should have our best thought always. They mean more to us than anything else. The can didacy of Ed Schunky and Frank Neer Is one of the best evidences of soliciture for the schools that has been noticed in months. These men are high grade citizens, with no ax to grind and. who were only persuaded after much entreaty on the part of the citizenship. They are men of high character, un questioned Integrity, and It Is a privilege' to get them to stand for this election. " ; We must have our schools func tion in the very latest methods and iw the most effectual way to teach higher citizenship. This cannot be done with the present hoard. CONSTERNATION One more witness has done the unexpected In the Wheeler Inves tigation under the worst of cir cumstances. This man set the com mittee in such an uproar that they adjourned for three days. The witness had the temerity to tell these men to their faces that they were acting worse than the Bol sheviks. - Wheeler -gasper for breath and sputterlngly tried to speak, but he was : choked with emotion. He has meen discovered red-handed and uncovered to the country. I ; The; Wheeler Investigation In its radicalism, - its nausesness, has made the Walsh investigation al most respected. ' Two reputable witnesses only have been called This last one uncovered scoundrel, Means, told how he bad been fak Ing all the way through. He never had papers stolen. lie never had papers that any one cared to steal. Means is th biggest liar In Amer ica without a doubt. , upr etna Court, ; -. i - , . ,m ; j FprtCINTQ THE ISSUE There is1 nothing congress hates y Jri worse than to 'be forced to ike taction -when ,it has .decide! ot ) tol ; It' haa. done' everything ossicle to escape ' the ifcNary tavjseu (til, but the sponsors have ersisteatly. demanded action, and ow are going; to get results. .

It violates the ks pt supply and demand, Jmt no -sore, in this caf e than we did in that of the railroads- during the World war, nor. more than we did for the Infant; industries of the country.. - It is . a step towards socialism, but America .has ceased to shyat that charge. . . , Time was when . to ;say a thing was "socialistic was' to kill it, and " that objection was' cer tamiy foverworked. Every prog ressive measure 'that diae been en acted 'at least has had to rXththe gauntlet of T socialistic .tenden- cies." Men nave used this weapon V- . - :' - - LET HLAI WIN Senator McNary haa recommend ed E. E. Brodie for ambassador to Japan." - Mr. Brodie has been in the service for some time In Siam, but he does not seem to like that place, and then this Is a promo tion. Mr. Brodie is a distinguished citizen ot Oregon and hia republi can service warrants this promo tion. Of course it should not be given purely upon the party con sideration but we know Mr. Brodie Is personally worthy ot this promo tion and we are anxtous for him to havejt: - .:,;:?. ;.. There ought to be some way for his friends in Oregon to push his candidacy. Senator McNary can make a better case If he can show Secretary Hughes that the people of the Pacific slope want Mr. Bro die to. have this Job.' One thing that will operate against him will be hit residence where the anti Japanese sentiment Is supposed to be at its strongest, but he has con' siderable in his favor. America must look out for Its eastern trade and America needs a man in Japan who knows the Japanese question here end who will not lose his head at the delicate diplomatic oc casions from time to time. We believe It Is better to have some man from the far west given thia position rather than any man from' the . eastern part of - the country who has everything to learn. ' THE PRICE OF WHEAT They confirm the necessHy for a pretty high protective tariff tor the benefit of , our American wheat growers. L. 1 a point to Interest themselves in politics. What we want in Ameri ca is 100 per cent votes on each question that comes up, while as a matter of fact we never have more than a 50 per cent vote cast even in Abe presidential .'years. We want ererybofty voting and every body taking an Interest in politics no matter how they vote. If this is donel each man will feel' his re sponsibility. Every qualified man and woman should vote at every election. LETS NOT The next thing we know, the militarists will be asking a 'good many thousand dollars to put the Oregon battleship in 'condition to be moved to Oregon shores where our children can look upon it and gain enthusiasm for war. They call It enthusiasm for patriotism, but. they are not even deceiving themselves; they know precisely what they want. What Oregon needs Is not to be constantly re minded of! war but to cultivate the arts of peace. It must make "Newberry feel queer to recall his summary ex pulsion and Wheeler's vindication by the senate. - I - FUTURE DATES I moat THE CHURCH AND POLITICS There Is no one who that the church should believes go into t politics, but it is certainly good for the country, for the individual members of the church to strain If ay 24, Saturday TeoraB to Oron ralm of Rbadamanthna. .

That is the very essence of Christianity Christ in the individual life, jthe Christ spirit in and pervading the whole social order " says ithe Presbyterian Advance. 4 'There are those," it continues, "who think of Christianity as a form to be defended. : They are mistaken. It is essentially a spirit to be extended. 'If any manj have not the spirit of Christ he is none of his, but 'as many as! are led by the spirit of God, they are sons of God.' " ; , : r Ana now are we 10 get unnsi in us inax we may snow xorin His spirit and lifet Not bylmerely asking Him to enter. We must put out of. ourselves the things not (in harmony with His spirit of love, righteousness and service, j Although He may be standing at the door of our hearts and knocking, He will not enter until we have done our best to make a fitting place for him to abide. "The pure in heart shall see God shall have Christ as a guest, if . j. It is an insult to Christ and belittling to Christianity, to classify ourselves as Christians when we are still largely domi nated by the common human passions and impulses ; while our thoughts, lives and energies are entirely absorbed in seeking our own advantage, with no higher business ethics than the man who makes no religious professions. How can one claim to be a Christian who never has a thought that he owes any service to men; that he is eharged with any duty as to the, welfare of others; or that he has any compelling obligation to overcome himself, to purify his life, and make himself "a fit tabernacle for the indwelling of God's holy spirit"? :What is the most distinguishing feature of the Christ spirit, the very soul of Christianity, its one 'compelling, indispensable requisite? It is unselfish love, the giving up of self with Its nar row and carnal interests forthe. needs, ;the welfare of others. It is self-denial, personal sacrifice in the service of men without any -thought or expectation of reward i from them in return. Without this spirit Christianity is only an empty shell, a hollow mockery, a pretense and a sham. Do not Christ's own words make this perfectly clear? ; 11 , : l Let it not be forgotten that Christ's mission is spiritual. His spirit is to dominate, to completely regenerate the soul and life of the individual; to change his ambitions, to elevate his thoughts, to purify his heart to substitute, for the carnal, sinful life of the natural man the spiritual life which He exemplified. His mission is to give one power to control himself, to put out of his life even the temptation to sin, and through the regenera tion of individuals to regenerate society, the world. ; Should any religion be offered you vvith a promise thai, if you will embrace it, it will require you to give up nothing ; to make no sacrifices; that you can go right on living the ordinary, indifferent, drifting, sinful life of the world, it is spurious; it is a counterfeit, it is nothing that can meet your spiritual needs or the needs of the world. What you need, what the world needs, is to give up the nnregenerate, brutal, sordid, selfish, un generous, narrow, undeveloped self, for the broader, purer, sweeter, nobler life which real Christianity alone can bring. Make no mistake, in order to get this real Christianity you must give up the harmful, lustful dissipations and the so-called pleas ures of sin. '7- I But this is really no sacrifice; rather it is a great gain, be cause the rewards of living a truly Christian life are incom parably greater than anything which ithe gratification of the carnal nature can -give. Until one hag felt the joy of self-con quest and experienced the. pleasure that comes from unselfishly ministering to others and helping them mount to the heights of spiritual being he has not yet begun to live. And besides, you will never have to pay for living this purer, nobler, more beauti ful life in the tears of repentance, the suffering, sorrow and bit terness that are the sure, ultimate :price of ; a. carnal life of selfish indulgence and evil. ' 1 i k ! l T Christ's words to Nieodemusr "Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again," are addressed to every one of us, to the world. Christ in us, Christ in the world ! His living spirit dominating the everyday activities of men this is the great need of the world; this it is waiting for to end sin, suffering poverty and war forever. Nothing short of this will do it. All other things are only makeshifts. i j ; ; To attain this mighty, this glorious result, how weakly we strive 1 In every church the pastor and a dozen, or at best, twenty-five of the members, do all the active work of the church. If all who profess to be followers of Christ would stop dreaming about the future, far-away heaven and their selfish and weak efforts to reach it ; if they would cease congratulating them selves upon being safely enrolled among thse who are to be saved in the world to come, and seriously go to work to bring His kingdom in themselves and in this world now, this glorious result could be attained.' The heaven that Christ revealed is not a1 place, it is a condition of life; it consists not of outside sur roundings, but comes from inner, soul conditions of righteous ness, harmony, love and peace. "The kingdom of God is within you." L .. . . .. -.. .... . ; - .. . His kingdom will never come, and" His will will never be done on earth while we Christians are satisfied to let the pastors and a few consecrated, devoted souls do all the evangelizing. Each must do his full duty, and through prayer, and effort be come a true apostle, a real evangelist, full of the spirit, inspira tion and power of Christ. This only will the world be redeemed, thus only will be brought to men that perpetual "peace which passeth all'understanding." Prom every Christian heart should go up the constant prayer voiced in Frances Havergal's beauti ful words:' ' ' " i; "Oh, teach me, Lord, that I may teach The precious things Thou dost impart; . ' And wing my words that they may reach - The hidden depths of many a heart. - "Oh, fill me with Thy fullness, Lord, . Until my very heart overflows In kindly, thought and glowing word, t ! .Thy ove to tell, Thy praise to show." V ; i WILD WIL.UES V By George S.- Chappell Willie, helping Mother cook.
