But it is on the way. Several propositions are being -furthered and considered. '1 . ; , . : ; The railroads have not yet announced definitely, that they will give a rate that will allow the Rowing of sugar beets in this district this year, to be shipped to the factory at Bellingham. It is announced, however, that active construc tion twork has been commenced on the factory at Bellingham . .. " - " ' And the rate announcement is expected hourly. It should not be delayed longer. It should be granted, as a matter of course. j " ' - ,';s '-Vj ? 'H : . , t ) There are a number of beet sugar items that are interest ing to our people; especially since we are looking forward to being a center of beet sugar making. j 4 . An immense new factory is being built in England, in Suffolk! contracts with farmers for growing the beets having been signed. Five more factories in England are expected to ' be arranged for. Also, arrangements are being perfected for a' new beet, sugar factory in eastern Scotland this year.- AH this is "being "encouraged by ;"-government sanction. England proposes to attempt, to become more nearly self sufficient in , BUgar. . ' 1 1,; ' ,v-; ;;" ; 'I' '-..' r ' ! . 7 ; Work on the new mill at Sidney, Montana, of which Rev. James Elvin wrote The Statesman a fews weeks ago, is now going forward. It will take care of 10,000 acres of beets; will be a large factory. The Holly Sugar company, building , that mill, will now be second in output in the United States in beet sugar, being exceeded only by the. Great Western . Sugar company. Some readers will no doubt be surprised to know that the Utah-Idaho Sugar company,' building the new factory at Bellingham, and controlled by Mormon interests,' , is now only third in size in this country ; below the two others jUst named, with a Michigan company a close fourth. i "It is expected that 1925 will witness the largest increase ever made in the beet sugar output of the United States. It was over i million tons last year, which showed a substantial growth; -.- ---- T ,y SKETCHES OF AN . (From the Oregoniao) " ' Ella McMunn of Lake Labteh is remembered by Portland people who recall her as a feature writer on-a local newspaper, a few swift years ago. It was then said that she had the true literary gift, lack ing, in so many writing folk,, and there was no dearth of prophets to predict that one day. she would be famous. When Miss McMunn returned to her mother's farm near Salem, however, she entered the silence, so to speak, and until lately nothing j has been heard of her. Her first message is a thin paper-bound booklet of essays, "Down On the Farm," printed at Salem. It is a most unpretentious effort, but the sketches .therein have caught and, held a certain fragrance, wistfai, like new-mown clover.' Books are not to be Judged by their covers', even though an hun dred experiences incline one to believe that their covers do betray them. Here is a book that might hold no greater treasure than a freight of maundering phrases, of labored cleverness and tawdry style. But that which it reveals is quite different a nature sensi tive to beauty, affectionately drawn toward the unregarded common places of life, and just the least bit sadly analytical of self. The sketches' are realism saved from groasness and stupidity by an un common sympathy and Intuition. The gift folks once said she had, ias not failed Ella McMunn. There Is a breath of clover in this latest work and a little of that mist which hovers over the fields at morning around Lake Labiah. 4 . Several women have recently arrived at literary success by writ ing books about country people and their ways. I But how ptale and uneventful those tales are for the most part, how instant tctJexalt the sordid and to create a sticky atmosphere of : boiled cabbage and tnrnips. " Miss McMunn's sketches. of the .farm are not that sort of writing, and are yet quite as true. tl the butcher, the death of a sweetness and of natural pathos in Years ago when-William Marion Reedy was alive, and the friend and 'counsellor of, younger writers', he found Ella McMunn of Lake Lablsa and printed a few of her sketches in Reedy'e Mirror, as he .would have printed these. Rather diffidently Miss McMunn suggests, ia a prefatory note, that she may some day write enough such sketches for'a real 'book, and find a publisher. Certainly it would not be to the disadvantage jot Oregon literature. . ' r ABOCT ECONOMY .There has been a complete re versal of policy regarding public expenditures. It used to be that ' everybody-': thought " the public . treasury . was common property, a ad any raid upon it was legiti . mate If it got through. There . seemed to be no bottom to the public pocket. .We remember dis tinctly when the first billion dol- lar congress was given to the countryi. It caused a terrific-uproar and almost cost the republl- cans aupremacy. i Then we began talking in "billions and began thinking fn billions, but there has r ; been reversa I. We r are now tfclaking economy, , we reallie that " . Miutir i .

A ETDUSTXir One of the industries that has sprung up recently has been boot legging. It is hardly a profession and therefore must be an Industry. A former citizen of Kansas now living in New. York has gone Into the bootlegging business openly. Speaking about his undertaking the other day, he was very frank. ? "I get my supply." Jie : said, ''from good sources and only sell to a list of people whom I know or to -whom I am recommended. 1 do my own delivering In a quiet way and, of course, I keep no of fice and put out no sign. I have about 100 regular customers in addition to friends from Kansas. My retail price on whiskey right now is $5 a quart, and it is good whiskey. I make more than $1 on each quart and my profits run from $200 a week up to twice that much. I sell other kinds of liquor at higher prices, which makes up for any lack of demand from my regular customers. . I pay $25 a week protection, so you see I am making twice as much money as I. did in . my old place and have rery little capital Invested."' ; ! THE MEDICINE SHOW Stayton is going to have a free medicine show all this week. The medicine shows haren't flourished much recently, but middle-aged and older men will receive this announcement with a ; reflective spirit. In the old days when the world was bright, medicine shows helped to keep it so. There would drift into town from nowhere a , band of players, the star of which was a negro with a banjo. Their acting may. not hare been: very good, but the youthful mind ac cepted the advance notices which said that they were world famous actors and ; actresses- U la those days youth lacked the power of discrimination and that is the fin est quality in the world. As soon as a- person gets so he can tell a good show from a bad show, he becomes blase in manner and loses that fine exhileration of spirit of seeing Bhows and thinking all act ors are great and all actresses wonderful. , .; The medicine show in the small er towns relieved the monotony of everyday life and gave the peo ple a social meeting place and al so caused a good deal of work to be neglected . so they could get there early to get front. seats, or even close standing room. 4 y IT IS NECESSARY j The legislature is handling a bill Which' provides' against the affi davits of prejudice - against a Judge. If our judges were super men there might be something to this, but judges are human beings. They are subject to prejudices. They are sometimes no bigger than the men who stand before them and they are occasionally vindic tive. . .. ! It is the right of every man to be tried before an unprejudiced judge, and most of the cases are so tried because there is very little change of venue; but the right to change, ' the right ' for every man to be tried in an unprejudiced court Is a right that can not be denied or, abridged, and the law making body would cripple jus tice if It undertook to prevent pre judice being alleged as a reason for change of Jurisdiction. END NOT YET , The world did not come to an end last Friday night, although a good many people expected it, a very few of them living in Salem. These scares are, of course, misinterpretations,- as It Is hardly to be supposed that cheap notoriety is so valuable as to be bought with anything . as ephemeral as this sort of prophecy. . The origin ators of it must be In earnest be cause they . know ridicule will quickly follow if they guess wrong, j It has been a favorite theme to predict the end of the world, and there have been Instances where ijt disturbed and practically upset tjhe world for a short time. How ever, we are paying less attention to ft because we are less hysteri cal. We tre making calmer val ues and are dismissing with ' a smile what we used to receive with credulity. ; J j The end of the world comes to every generation. ' There are only three people known in history who have escaped death, which is the end of the normal world: People ought ' to be satisfied . with that rather thaa Insist on taking them off by the wholesale.' It is safe to aay'howeverv that the next scare will have fewer followers than .the one just passed. .The people will reflect more on what has been prophesied and pay less attention' to what' is prophesied: ' !TIS A.IPITY- A boat on the ocean "near As toria was in the midst of a storm it "could . not'.- weather. " , While floundering In the" last stages an other boat camoalong, picked .up the discouraged ; seamen; and brougbt them into Astoria. What was the reward?

' , r: : 7 ' S ' f We have always bad an idef that If we were warden of a pen itentiary and knew that officers were waiting at the gate to re arrest a discharged convict,; We would find some means td'let him slip out tne back way. We would not violate the law, but we would take our eyes off him a' minute in order that he might have a chance for his liberty. We feel the same way about this boat. We can not help wishing that the law had at leastwinked and givn this' boat a change to get away. It is a poor reward for heroism io arrest the heroes. A STRONG POSITION It must be confessed that Gov ernor Pierce in his Portland port veto message took a position that win strengthen him before the people of Oregon. 'He can afford to have the legislative humUiatlon. in order to score before the peo ple. As a matter of fact the Port land port commissioners ought to be elected." : Its wrong to ap point them. In the. tight with the legislature Governor Pierce , was not tactful in forcing it, but pos sibly he had In mind all the time an appeal .to the people on a sub ject which did not trample on their toes but made them line up as partisans for him. There Isn't a reason, on earth why the Port land port, commissioners should not be elected, and Governor Pierce managed to get that quite prominently in his message. IS IT REACTION? For a long time there has been a feelinff that the federal govern ment was encroaching upon state government. As we become great and our diversified interests be came more unified, we needed na tional control. That has been go ing on for a number of years but the opponents of the child labor taw seized upon it to fan the dy ing sentiment into flame. .The re sult has been a reaction against federal control. How far it will go in that direction, no one knows. It may be that we are, in. tor ta swing ot state rights, but pi guess is that . the federal govern ment will win and the people' will realize that the best legislation is legislation for 48 states. . Thought for Every Day r J By Ed'itor J. B, Parker of The ""Conway (Arkansas) News " John Martin, the feature writer, in a catchy little poem tells how he sent three ships a-saillng. Their cargoes were Love, Honor, Purpose. Smiles. Laughs, and Fun. Fretful moods and sulky fits. and fear and malice, and. priggish pride, were carefully omitted from the cargoes.; - . ; The- cargoes of Love, Honor. Pumose. Smiles. Laughs and Fun. were welcomed in every port and throughout the trips Joy: content ment, and peace reigned aboard the ships. 1' :! , . . ' ' : r -- I '. Of course those ships experienc ed stormy seas and cloudy days. but the passengers did not suffer because the cargoes - were filled with sunshine. In these rapid-living days too many persons load their ships with fretful moods and sulky fits, and fear and malice, and priggish pride, and it lsn t at all strange that they are always sailing Over stormy seas that threaten to wreck them. 1 Better ' throw those cargoes overboard, and then load up with Love, Honor, Purpose, Smiles and Fun. and you will be chartered into harbors where are Success, Peace, Contentment, and Prosperi ty. : " ; .

' ! It "defines "Doctor" in terms designed jto exclude the use of any system, method, apparatus or dev ice hot Jfirst formally approved by the regulars. i A It establishes a licensing board ''stacked' against every practi tioner not subscribing to their method ind "ethics." It 1 places unlimited legislative power in this board by' which the board may make any rule, or regulation, or designate, any qualification, or requirement it may deem neces sary to tarry out the provisions of the bill-protection of the "reg ulars." , Can you beat that? I Its power is supreme and all embracing. It gives the "regulars" an air-tight cinch on the profes sion by criminalizing every system method, apparatus or appliance used in healing, not first approved by the self-styled "regulars." f I This bill establishes a "code of ethics" which Includes all moral and professional demands univer sally accepted by all practitioners, and in addition Includes the sin of advertising. Advertising is anathema to a "regular" unless It is free. If paid-for it is a crime to advertise. Advertising Is the avenue through which his competition reaches the public with advanced methods, practices and apparatus which often dis credit the "regular." therefore he would make it unethical to dis credit him and would criminalize the practitioner, or method, in strument of apparatus who would so offend his lordship. ' These are ' few ' of the points which indicate the vicious nature of the bill. It is vicious in prin ciple and application. It is based upon a! vicious motive which sub ordinates public health protection to the protection of the "regulars" by creating for them a monopoly and a franchise of a close corpora tion, !.

Riggs,who is chaplain of the Catholic club at Yale university, writing in The Commonweal, the new Catholic weekly published in New York declares that "unless Protes tants and Catholics agree to disagree on religious questions and learn not to believe all the slander they hear of each other, religious divergence will be synonymous with civil strife,, and our future will be dark indeed." to his view. 4 includes the wish point of view, the determination until the contrary is proved, above alt the willingness to nvc at peace with fellow citizens of all creeds and of none and' to cooperate 'with' them for the welfare of the common country. .This writer insists that "all attempts at mutual under standing must fail unless accompanied by mutual trust. If many Protestants need to learn that Catholics -are not taught to lie to them many Catholics need to realize that many Prot estants are not taught to hate both Catholics and Protestants to correct the frequent misun derstanding which each has of the essential beliefs of the other, and especially not to accept as true the outrageously false and slanderous -statements of ten circulated by bigots,; I and that both can unite in combating the spread of intolerance, 4 not' by denymir their differences, but by seeing their differ ences as they really arc and acknowledging each other's good faith." - - - ',,- : . This writer sums up the matter thus: "Possibilities of fric tion must apparently remain so ed to advance the cause of what is seen as vital truth in ways incompatible, with charity toward those believed iii error. In other words, intolerance of ideas certainly tends toward intol erance of persons. Yet whatever imprudence or cruelty has been shown in the past by Christians of all kinds, surely no Christian is justified in letting this tendency prevail, and cer- i tamly no Catholic can find support m his church's teachings for a zeal for orthodoxy which' unfair, advantages, or refuses" to religion the country to which both owe allegiance. " V ; , This contribution to the struggle against religious bigotry and intolerance will be heartily religious freedom, and should be by every Christian of every denomination. .JYVhat possible good can come from our : con demnation of the religious beliefs of our neighbor and bur os tracising and persecuting him on account of his religion. Uy such a course .we do not destroy his faith in his particular church or denomination. As a rulo wc make him more loyalv ' 2f to it. Nobody, was ever converted to any faith by abuse, con-S demnation and brutal, unreasoning, unchristiau persecution, and no one ever will be. The great evangelists of the world J from Paul down to Billy Sunday, never descended to persecu tion of other religions.- That is not the way to reach and hold the heart of mankind. ' There is a common impression that bigotry and intolerance arise from very strong religious convictions. Nothing of the kind. They are only brutal and disgusting exhibitions of self- ishness and arrogance. The man: who has no respect for the honest opinions of others has not even the first essential of , good 'breeding, to say nothing of Christianity. Even more, the man who believes that" all the religious truth that is nec essary for him to have is embraced in the circumscribed, intel- . iectual statement of supposed religious truth that he calls his creed or confession of faith is therebj- exhibiting his ignorance of the teaching of the Master, who did not profess to have re vealed all the; truth. He evidently contemplated spiritual de velopment and increase in spiritual knowledge as well as other things human. Did He not promise us that "when he, the Spirit of Truth, is come he shall guide you into all truth!". Can there be more than one opinion as to the attitude of f Jesus toward the intolerance still more or less common in all the organizations' of men who have taken His name and think they are His followers f He rebuked His disciple, John, for say ing, as it is recorded in Mark, "Master, we saw one casting out devils in Thy name, and he followed not us; and we forbade him, because he has not followed him not; for there is no manfwho name and- be able quickly to speak evil of mff. For he that is j not against us is for us." , V' Paul also gives m a great lesson in toleration in the four teenth and fifteenth chapters of Romans. " Here are some-of his words: "For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God and approved lof men. Let us therefore follow after the things that make for peace and things wherewith one may edify another." "Ve, Ihen, that are strong ought .to bear the infirmities of the weak,, and not to please ourselves. Ijet everyone of us please his neighbor for his good, to edification." . The selfishness and ignorance joI men makes them loyal to their own particular church or denomination instead of having the broader loyalty to God, to Christ and to the truth as it is revealed to their own hearts. - The man whoee spirit has been quickened, who has been truly born again" as Jesus says we must be, has "a surer way of prophesy" than dogma, or creed or confession of faith. He does not need a creed for mulated by some "one for him to keep him in. the "strailit and narrow path." He docs not'necd a eatechism to tell him what the truth of God is. He does not need the threat of hell fire to keep him from sin; tThe law of God is written ra his heart, and the love of God which dominates his life,' fills him with love and charity for ;all mea of every faith or of no faith, f This love necessarily destroys in him all narrowness, bigotry v and intolerance. " , v- - The Scripture says, ."De not deceived by vain word3. Vords, dogmas creeds are not religion... Religion is an attitude, a condition of the sould and where it really exists will express itself fu a. life of righteousness, love and peace with all u-.cu.
