Cannot the public see that evety dollar of money for manufac tured flax will be 100 cents for Oregon workers, Oregon capital, Ore gon raw materials and other things Oregon? Isn't it worth while for Portlandera, by increased purchase of i shares of stock in the Salem linen mill, to stabilize and develop this new and exclusive Oregon in dustry?" . . . ., . ' - - The above from the Portland Journal of last night are true words And here is the evening up of an industry that will be come Oregon's greatest industry and. so remain for all time 'V?TYill in due course be an industry that will bring in $100,000,000 new money annually from far places, and em ' ploy, directly and indirectly, a million people And even then will only be oil its way to greater thing3. There are now at least three) specialty manufacturers waiting to employ 2000 to 5000 people here in Salem, and to 'double the population of this city, whenever we can produce for them the flax fiber and spin th$ linen yarn they will need ' as their rawmaterials, j This is no'dream. It is high time we were getting further on our way; though we are making: splendid progress. CONTEMPTIBLE "The United States is not to enter the World Court. "After all it is probably just as well that this issue has been finally settled. ! ; "Failure pf the United States to enter the World Court does' not mean that the United States has abandoned its tradi tional policy of submitting international disputes to which it is a party to arbitration nor does it mean that the influence of .this" Nation will not be exerted in favor of world peace. ;iia! "Isolated though we may be from active participation in the affairs of the Jaguef NjJtions.and tlje machinery of the World Court, the United States is still the one independent .? moral force in the world that can ' exert its strength wisely and judiciously for justice and against oppression wherever '-found in this world, full of struggle and strife, envy and 'jrreed." - . v -.1" . - V I, '.The above are paragraphs from an editorial article in the Portland Telegram of last evening. But this issue has not been "finally settled." J, It has merely been shown that the United States senate is a . contemptible body in some respects ; as it has proved itself Hto be ever since it haggled like & small town city council over the covenant of the League of Nations " , That, indeed, the -members of what is supposed to be the most dignified legislative body or branch in the world are I merely silly .children grown up, some of them never having outgrown their childish notions and prejudices. What the United States senate,has just done is this: It has dismissed with a careless wave of the hand a most - reasonable proposition on the part of the World Court. '4 I A year ago in January the United States senate decided by an overwhelming vote to adhere to the World Court, but it insisted on five reservations Tie three first reservations 5 were accepted unconditionally, and the last two conditionally, sr'but the signatory powers asked for a conference to discuss ..their meaning and probable effect ' ; However, the signatory pdwers agreed to all five of our preservations provided they could withdraw : their acceptance in case they proved detrimental I And the United States, through the United States sen ate; through which our country must act in such matters, refused even to have a conference and .flatly closed up like a clam A contemptible attitude. ;greal nation. . Enough to make 110,000,000 citizens of this . country blush with shame over august legislative body. fit Is a case of thumbs, down for a stricken gladiator inr a A brutish Roman arena. It is a Vs the cave man who hunted his )'t Theteople.of the United question of the League of Nation's and adherence to the World ' Court. 'The politicians have merely used it as a football. They r have been trimmers; played u .1 he question is not "finally settled," and it will not be ,'till it is settled right. No question is ever settled till it is . settled right. Our country has forfeited its rightful leader 'ship ' among the nations of i jealousies and bickerings of ' senate , Through the lack of sincere and upstanding men of : statesman like stature in whose places' have rattled around ' men of the size of ward politicians. .; " , t 'MORE -LIKE r ; ; Said the Portland Journal ; paragraph of an editorial article against largo appropriations by- the legislature for. capital outlays- for new buildings: "Is , jt essential, is it sound policy, Statesman W.

H 1 BUSINESS? last evening, in the concluding to spend?COO,000 forJ!a state office building now? Would it not be more 'like business tp first find out where, the money is to come fromT'V !4f j j - The writer should be ashamed of . himself. Every one else in Oregon who reads knows that, the' proposed, 5 600,000 office building in Salem will not take a cent from the general fund of the state treasury. ; The money is to come from" the state industrial acci dent surplus, to be paid back in future years with interest. Is the legislatuic, going to adjourn without (passing the bill to complete the cleaning up of the Columbia river? . And make it necessary for the people to go to the expense of initiating the measure and carrying it by a next to unanimous vote? . ' . ; ' ' . .. ; - If the Oregon legislature could have a competent steering committee provided with an effective steam roller, it could clean up all the important business before it, and be ready to adjourn sine die next Friday night. i, a CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN Roberta was talking .quietly "That's Just what I mean. There wasn't . anything personal in It. You saw something big to do and did it. I've known that all along, and I'm sorry I teased you, Pe ter.., I wouldn't if I'd known. I didn't mean to hurt you." "Hurt me?" He had forgotten her part in their late encounter. "About your name, you know." "Oh!" Color flooded his face, which had been as pale as hers. "Oh. that's all right. My fault en tirely. Forget it." "I will. I'll always think of you as Peter. This was a little more than Pig jjy could bear, and, to escape one agony, he inflicted worse upon himself, in his need of defense against self-betrayal. "Is Nixon here?" "Clif? Oh. no! He's never to know anything about you. Nobody is. But I met him today, acci dentally, and he's coming down to New York to see me tomorrow night." "Oh!" said Piggy politely. "You'll be married right away, I suppose?" "That's another thing. She spoke hurriedly, embarrassment written in every lineament. "I owe you a lot of money, and this morning your father made me take more. I meant to ask Clif to pay it all afterward. But I'm afraid you'll have to wait now. Until -I can earn it. I'm not going to be married." "What?" She hung her head. "No, I I want.- I thonght I could. I tried. but I'm sorry; you'll have to wait." He made no answer, but he took a Btep toward her, audibly catch ing his breath, and she looked up at him. In the next Instant 'she was swept into his; arms, his lips upon hers. "Qh. Bob! I thought I'd lost you," he whispered, between kiss es. "Why why, Peter!" she gasp ed, when he would allow her. "Do you care, too?" "Care! I've cared from the first minute. Wliat do you think I chased off with you. for? . Think I make a habit of running away with girls? Care! Why, Bob, I've been the most miserable dev il" That was as far as he could go Without further solace trom her assuaging lips and repeated assur ances that despite his manifest un worthiness she loved him. . "Not going to be married, aren't you?" he chuckled during the next comparatively, sane interlude. "YouH be Mrs. Percival Galahad Brazenose tomorrow. How'll you like that on your visiting cards?" She protested that, the morrow would be too soon, mentioned that she "had many things to do, and asked with apparent irreva lence whether; he thought they'd ever find her trunks. "Trunks?- " What have 'your trunks lo do with It?" "My clothes, Peter!" "Rats!" Piggy was himself again.: "Think I'm going to mar ry you in anything except that brown rig you have on? ; Suits me, all right. I'm not going to let yon go again not farther than the end of my arm. You would run away from me, would you? :Well, I'll show you! The first thing we do In New! York tomorrow will be to find a parson and tie you tight!" "But Clif thinks we're still en gaged, .He's coming to see me to- mnrroar nleht- : ' ,. , : ; "He'll find the fair Ellen Is Lochinvar's bride . Write him 'a note to that effect or send: some girt you never saw before to tell him! Poor old Whangdoodle!" Piggy felt an honest pang of sym pathy; for'the unfortunate Nixon, though in his heart of hearts he believed that Whangdoodles were hborn.' not made, and no more to be tranHmograpniea man mo leap ard or the Ethiope. "He's had his chance and lost it." , - A. discreet tap at the door drove them apart. 1 , "Come In," said Roberta, and then, audaciously: "Oh it's dad ' "Wha-at?" The elder Brazenose looked from one to the" other. "Sure!" Piggy' grinned and gathered her in again by an arm flung around her shoulders. "Who says I ain't an obedient boy? You told me to marry her, and I'm go ing to tomorrow' - ". tm "You'll do," said his father. Then he kissed his daughter. At this point dinner was served. Celia limped in from an adjoining room,. to be astounded by the lat est development, and they sent for Janet, whose burderav of remorse ceased to be. Some time later they calmed down sufficiently to supply, between them, a detailed account of the day's proceedings. "I found out one thing that I'll never forget," Roberta said mis chievously. "Dad may. growl sometimes, Peter, but inside he's just like us. You ought to have seen his eyes this morning when he was planning my raid on birch wood." "Oh, sure," Brazenose agreed, with a grin only less boyish than his son's. "We're three bears when we get started. Big bear, ! little bear I'm the in-between?' bear." "And the one who's sure to get squeezed. w The little bear's face clouded. "We can't be married very soon, Peter, because If we are father's sure to spot you in stantly, and he'll take it out on dad who - has trouble enough with him now." "Don't let that stand in your way, my . dear." The elder man kissed her hand, bringing a bright er color to er face. "We're con sidering life now, not property." She shook her head, twinkling back at him. "Not to that extent. There is such a thing as propor tion, you know balance. And youYdone so much for Peter an i me, you must let us do our share. Besides, it may take me sometime to make arrangements for Celia. We'll wait six months " - "Six months!"-Piggy roared. 4 "Janet and I will look out for Celia. You'll be married tomor row quietly. It needn't be gen eraUy known. I'll see to that. Then yott'll take this young man away and sequester him some where, out of sight until his hair grows. He can't come into my of fices wearing that mane.. Per haps by the time you get back and the. marriage is announced, I'll' have found another threader and can tell Scott to go to hell beg ging your pardon,, girls." "By the way, how did you come" out with Killgrew?" Piggy asked. "Didn't see him. Got caught in a cyclone. His father smiled at Roberta, who inquired: "Who's Killgrew?" They told her about the hen minded inventor, clucking over his unfledged chick, and when, she had grasped the situation, , she said: "Wrhy, that's simple! We'll be married tomorrow, Peter, and go straight to Boston. You can make this man sell his thing to dad." - Brazenose snorted, quite in his normal manner. .'He make him! Killigrew's a man-size job, young lady. 1 worked with him for months myself, and never made a dent in him. P. G. could no more " "Oh, la, la!" said Roberta with a roguish glance. ' Checked, he took thought for an instant and then leaned toward her argumentatively, laughter in his eyes. ; . "I'll bet yon a thousand dollars to. a nickel that p. G. "can't buy that machine." "Done!" she cried. "He'll do it." He did. . THE END. (Copyright by Margaret Cameron Lewis.

Tradesmen, manufac turers, members of the school board, judges, aldermen, capital-, Ists, promoters, and members ot the learned professions. Here was the oligarchy which, behind the appearance of demo cratic government, effectively manage, direct, and control the city, cbunty, and state. Here was the handful ot people who settled between them wheth er taxes should go up or go down, and to whom it did not seriously matter whether they went up or down, provided that the interests of the common people were not too sharply set against their own interests. Here are the people, the priv ileged class, who did what they liked provided they did not offend each other. Here the populace was honestly and openly regarded as a restless child to be', humored and to oe flattered, but also to be ruled firmly, to be kept in place, to be ignored when advisable, and to Le made to pay. I have been wondering if our legislators, governor, secretary ot state, state treasurer, "presidents of normal schools, state universi ty and Oregon Agricultural college are all banqueters.
