THE OREGON
' The writer has been observing the Oregon Legislature
in ' action, in regular and special session, for slighttyipver
forty years ..." - a '
i And the present session will compare in personnel very
favorably with any past one in that time. ' 1
'Ch It is the fashion in Oregon to abuse the Legislature, but
it Is a poor fashion. It is as inexcusable as the mother-in-law
f joke. There is no good reasbn why the Legislature should
I be abused, when its members are doing the best they know
"how ;;.;v'5 , : .-y)
, - For , the members are among the best people in their
f communities," very largely ; leaders in business and the pro--fessions
and in good works. They are not the outlaws and
') numbskulls their critics would infer. . j ; s : ;
; The writer beKayes ittwould be a good thing for Oregon
. people to set a new style in the treatment of their Legisla
tures ' V I ' .', . . ' ' "
r To .accord them praise instead of abuse;, to hold them
-decent and sane unless proved the opposite. . The newspapers
j couldin a single bnnium change the style. This would lead
'to a still higherVlass of members on the average in the Legis
lature; for sqme of the best and ablest of our citizens, men
"and women,;- hesitate to mingle in politics now on account of
the-attitude of criticism and detraction on the part .of the
i .public--- : ". ' " - ;f-1 ; l-'jl:,- '?ml'-.
; On account of f the foolish
?,VThe present Oregon Legislature .has : been confronted
with some knotty problems concerning the raising of the
necessary revenues f or the conduct of the state's business!
It is too late to quarrel over "how they got.that way." .is.
a condition and not a theory. ,'. .
Qt course, a lot of consolidating ought to have been done;
i should have been f accomplished long ago. But it was not.
The present Legislature is for the first time laying a sure
foundation for consolidation of departments, by submitting
to the people a constitutional amendment giving free action ;
. so that departments may be merged without running into the
objection of being against the Constitution. This should have
! been done long ago. But it was not done. ' K ? i ' ; -
At : this late date nothing can be done towards' cutting
off boards and commissions, and useless offices and depart
ments. Perhaps little could have been done from the first,
with the Constitution; as it reads, and ; with many of f ther
; costly excrescences very firmly intrenched, under the present
system. . .
So the joint ways and means committee has worked out
; a program for the proposed raising of sufficient revenues to
I make up the hiatus, from indirect sources and shifts
) Perhaps these are not just what the reader would select
, or approve. But the members
; mittees are among the best business men of Oregon, and they
have worked hard. They have done the best they could under
'the circumstances, and it appears to be the wise thing to
take their work as it is and put it through . ! I
And call it a day 'j
" ' And adjourn sine die, and see what happens. The Legis
lature as a whole might remain in session a month, longer,
and stand anotrfer month's abuse, and do no better indeed,
might do far worse.
Then let'the people vote
stitution, and let there be a
state government, into departments, making for both effi
ciency and economy, aa that system has worked out in Illinois,
' Washington and other states,
NEW STANDARDS
v -New standards 'of advertising for department stores all
over the country were.adopted

was in session week before last in New York ;
. "As retail advertising men, it devolves upon 'us to con
serve ahd advance the reputation of retail .business and of
the institutions Ve represent,"
nizing that our duty to the public, as well as the best interests
of retailing, call for honesty,
tising, we; have formulated

"Advertising is socially
consumer to buy more intelligently and with less effort. We
have thought of advertising
forming a twofold function, sell the merchandise adver
tiscdand to sell the institutibVi advertised. We should think
of it as performing a third
itself. n ;
. 'As advertising men we should be as jealous of the
reputation of our profession as the wise merchant is jealous
of the reputation f hi3 establishment. -Advertising-should

when their messengers brought

such things. Had the messengers
learned to soften their words they
might have escaped with their

did not remain equal. " Today John
is a rich man and a prince of busi
ness, the associate of the big men
in the world. Jim Is still in a
subordinate position in a . small
corporation. He has been unable
to make an advancement. : The
difference was that John conserv
ed everything to his own ends;
Jim conserved nothing. John
never thought of killing a messen
ger' who - brought bad news, or
kicking' a box out of the way. He
only, thought of taking care, of
himself and making everything do
his bidding, rather than give way
to passion; and do foolish things.

OUK WHEAT IS SOLD
While the wheat prices are
high, we must bear in mind that
the farmers of the Pacific states
have very little wheat on hand.
The first - half of February, no
wheat was exported from, the Pa
cific coast, but flour was reported
quite welt : The Rocky Mountain
states are also out of the wheat
market and ; the millers business
Is on accumulated stock. : -
The United States government
exported 2,130,000- bushels the
week ending February .7, and 1.-
314,000 bushels for the week end
ing February 14. Also the Can
adian imports in transit were 1-
102,000 for the week ending Feb
ruary 7, and 1,427,000 for the
week ending February 14. ' :
The stock of wheat on hand In
the United States la lower than
It , has been , for . years, and the
reason is that the world had a
shortage' of wheat - and had. to
have ours. The wheat harvest in
the southern hemisphere is going
on while we have our winter.
That country being short, there
was competitive bidding for the
product' and the law of supply and
demand brought the market up.
The bad feature of this is that
many people rushed their wheat
to market because "of the dema
gogic -charge that Wall Street
brought up . the ; price of " whea t
artifklallyln order , to Influence
the election. I Many, farmers" be
Ueved this and they thought they
were putting something ovr on;
the octopus; Instead they were
hurting themselves and , costing
themselves real money. :" 'Regret
fully now they see that the price
of wheat did not tumble after
election, and the ridiculous trump-'
ery that tooled them ought tomfool
them no more. . . - - -' .' . '
: r ABOUT, TAXES Lri'r.C,
Benjamin Franklin called , at
tention to the fact? that govern
ment ".taxes were very heavy 'and
he said that ir they we're the only
ones we had to pay we might bear
them, but we hare; many others
and most of them, more ; grlevons
than the government .taxes. . Then J
yir. Franklin proceeded to enum
erate that we ar taxed twice as
much by our idleness, three times
as much by" pur pride, and four
times as much, by, our folly, and
that, no r taxing board can allow
any rel -UiJeat cr'r It .'them 'la
anyway. .. '
XOT SO MUCH
v We read the other day an article
that fairly teemed with tear and
sounded an alarm over' the un
rest of the American people.; It
said that youth wai . rebelling
against ago and that a new order
of things was right upon ,. us.
We happened to pick up another
magazine which gave, - extracts
f om literature 100 years . ago
where the same story was told.
As a matter of fact there is less
unrest . now than there ever has
been, and It must be admitted that
there is : a : conservative period
right upon us and radicalism Is at
a' discount. It can. not hold up
its head and f get anywhere.
Everything indicates that It is a
time for straight thinking, straight
acting, less demagogery, and more
statesmanship. The people are
tired of being imposed upon by
selfish demagogues who preach
discontent. They are in.no dan
ger of becoming reactionaries;
they are simply exercising' the
conservative spirit of'; the ideal
American. -.i.; -";'.'-
HARD SLEDDIXa
The third party is having hard
sledding.1 The labor unions are
shying at it and Insisting that
they will maintain their own in
tegrity first. La Follette's son Is
telling them that in order to have
a third party, everybody must be
on an equal footing and have the
same chance. This can not be
done by group domination. These
men might as weir admit It one
time as another that the particu
lar third party they attempted to
organise last fall was so badly
battered when it bit the rocks
that it never can be repaired and
made water-tight. It served a
purpose and 'gave' the' republicans
their issue in the campaign, but
the men who fostered it are be
ing punished and will hare to
take their medicine.
A GOOD SELECTION'
It has been a long- time since
any man has been . appointed to
office in Oregon whose : selection
has been met with' such general
favor as that of William S. Lev-
ens as prohibition director. . Mr.
Leviens is an Experienced prose
cutor, a man of high- character.
and I resolute purpose. r Hig ap
pointment did moreto heal the
breach, between the executive and
the legislature than anything that
has happened. '..Everybody ; was, so
tired of the - old - administration.
so anxious for the new that of
course the new man- might have
been over-estimated,- but those
who have come in contact with
him say he Is all right. There is
a great work to do there,, and Mr.
Levens will address himself to it.
A FUXNV PROTEST
The Oregonian Is very .much
against another bridge across the
Columbia river at Rainier, and the
principal' argument is, that one
already across the river at an
other point, has netted over $401,-
000 for-the road fund of Clarke

CHAPTER NO.' 391
THE WAY MADGE FOUND REST
SO FAR AS CLAIRE IS
CONCERNED
If I had needed proof of Claire
Foster's essential indifference to
Dicky, I was given an abundance
of It when within 10 minutes of
our going to bed, her regular and
deep breathing told me that she
had gone to sleep as peaceful as a
kitten. ; -,.
I knew, of course, that she was
exhausted with : the emotional
strain of the preceding hours, but
I knew, also, that no exhaustion
would havo permitted sleep to
come to her so suddenly if her af
fections had been involved.
She Is not the type of girl to
take things lightly. Under her ap
parent hardness, her metallic su
perficiality, I had found a warm,
ingenuous heart, .And I realized
that once she was certain of my
continued presence in the room
with her she had relaxed, and laid
down the bristling armor which
she had kept between herself and
the captious speculations of those
surrounding her, and had found
the rest she so sorely needed.
;. Bnt I could not find sleep so
easily. - I forced myself to lie
quietly, for fear that " restless
movements might awaken the girl
on the. couch across the room
while over me went wave aftef
wave of anger at Dicky, fear that
he was no longer mine for either
anger or approbation, longing tor
him and an agonized remorseful
questioning as to my share of the
blame in the rift that had : come
between us. i
Happy Indeed should be the wife
who never had such a vigil. In the
old scriptural phrase she should
count herself -."blessed among
women" if she never has had oc
casion to spend ' the silent hours
of the night' in torturing intros
pection and retrospection such as
came to me in that mountain bed
room. - ; "
A Sleepless Night
"Af "first I kept looking at the
radium-luminous hands of my'
wrist watch to time the passing
minutes. Bat when I found that
what seemed to me at least an
hour of waiting was registered on
the-watch as only 17 minutes, I
determined to fook at it no more.
But I could' tiot escape the strik
ing of a clock in. another part of
the building, j clearly, audible on
the deep silence which gave the
hours and half hours. .
I noted every one until four
strokes told me that It was that
hour in the morning. Then I must
have dozed off from sheer exhaus
tion for when I opened my eyes
again the darkness had gone and
I saw that ft was the time in the
morning juysi oeiore me sun comes
upr when Everything seems most
bleak.-; .. 7 . - ; :
I shivered beneath the cover
ings, and realized that the room
had grown cold. . On the foot of
my bed was a handy comforter
given me by Mrs. Barker lor ex
tra cold, and another at the foot
of Claire Foster's bed. I slipped
out ' of bed, crossed to her,- and
pulled the quilt up over her with
out waking her. Then I dived
into m own bed again shivering,
violently, until the extra warmth
afforded by the added quilt re
stored physical comfort to me.
, But It could not restore sleep
to my eyes. I realized that I was
"up for all l day, realized also,
that action of some sort was im
perative for me. 1 1 would never
be able. to carry my undertaking
to its conclusion if I did not pro
vide my tangled nerves with some
outlet :'5": n: V7n:' ,

I am a mountain devotee. I do
not know that. any ot my ancestors
were mountain-bred, but ! am sure
that somewhere: in the' distinct
past of former existences I lived
among mountains and loved them
dearly. 1 With a . little thrill I
realized that if I hurried I would

. " THE END OF TIII1 WOULD
(Copyright, 1925, by San Jose Mercury)
IT is surprising to most of us that so many m this cotmtry
should have been sufficiently impressed by the prediction of
a sjeedy end of this world to cause them to selT their property
and give the money received for it to the pretended prophetess.
What a libel it is upon God to believe that, possessing infinite
power and wisdom. lie nevertheless made the world so little to
Ills liking that He finds it necessary to destroy.it 1 - The Infinite
Creator should certainly have as much knowledge and ability as
a first class human mechanic who, when he undertakes to.create
a mechanism for a certain purpose, is able to make it so that it
will fulfill that purpose. Some must classify the Creator with
the poor mechanic who after he has spent-time and labor to
make a useful machine finds that it will not work and destroys
it in disgust, or they must think that God made the world just
to amuse or please Himself and, childlike, having become dis
pleased or angry with His poor handiwork; He is now aboutto
destroy it. How ample, ehildish, foolish sueh ideas are!
" Yet they are little, if any, less sensible or reasonable than the
doctrine that God has created a very large majority of the hu
man race to suffer endless torment in a lake of fire. What
an ignorant, impotent, brutal being some people must believe
God to be! Even according to the literal interpretation of the
story of creation in the first chapter of Genesis, when He had
finished the creation, ne pronounced it all good, including man.
Why, then,' destroy it or any part of it? - Is it not about time for
sensible, intelligent,- reasoning beings to begin to understand
that" the world was not made to be destroyed now or at any
time in the, future;, indeed, that no partof the universe can be
destroyed T It and every part of it, including man, is made for
eternity. . , " . . ...
r .
; It is not only necessary for the theologians, ancient and mod
ern, to somewhat broaden and enlarge their ideas of creation
and the Creator, but many of our scientists need to change
their ideas as well as the theologians. The "idea that the great
sun, the center and controller of the solar system, is nothing
more than a great burning mass of matter which in time will
burn up and that our system must then go to smash, is anything
but scientific. Of the same character is the theory that the stars
are luminous bodies, made so by fire burning upon them or by
being intensely heated. " . ' - j r"
All these ideas spring, unconsciously in most cases probably,
from the old theological idea that everything was created solely
for man that sun, moon-and stars were made .'only that he
might have light and heat. 7 The man who has not developed be
vond this brazenly egotistical and exaggerated estimate, of the
importance of himself and his kind in the plan of creation is not
much of a scientist. One does not need to he much of -an as
tronomer or scientist to know that our world is one ofthe
smaller of the myriads of heavenly bodies composing the infinite
creation and that a man is little more .than a speck on the world.
If this does not teaeh him humility, let him realize that all the
other planets of our system must be composed of elements similar .
to those, composing our earth, and all, doubtless inhabited by
intelligent beings, some of them probably with more knowledge
and development than we have? attained. .Is ' it'to be supposed
that the Creator has no care ior them? Has He not made pro
vision for their life and created conditions conducing to -their
development, progress and happiness?
Is it not reasonable to conclude that the' sun. that each of the
planets, that-every star is created primarily for itself ; that it
has its place in the great comos, but that its destiny is to go on
through eternity refining itself and the life upon it to greater
aqd greater degrees of perfection; and that the heat and light
which they all give to us and to each other is . only incidental
