HFXP TIIE YWCA CAMPAIGN ". The YWCA workers were busy yesterday, the first day of their campaign for $7000, the amount necessary to keep the institution's activities going for the next year And a very fair showing was made-- ; -. But only what may be considered a good 'start. This businesses as much your business as it is that of the young women in the active canvass, or the faithful heads and direct ors of the institution j . 4- t- . . ....... , I 4 . .And it is your, duty to give the young women a kindly welcome. It .is your duty, and it should be your sought, for fpTiyJlege, fbjtnake your pledge promptly and speed them on the; way with a note of cheer -and a pledge of help in inducing others to accord them the same just treatment. .--.-The man or woman is not a loyal Salemite who will by word or deed or gesture make this work hard for those who ; are sufficiently unselfish to engage in it. We are getting more and more small industries in the city that are complements to our industries on the land. It ,- is the best kind of business for you to give them your loyal support. ."During the, last 60 years! the' pen of Shuey has reported them all. " He knows the vanities, the foibles, the struts, and poses of themTall, and perhaps he has corrected the grammar of more than one. They came, saw, were conquered, and passed beyond the mists of the years, and this old man con tinued on to the service of others doomed to the same end. How he must smile' at times today when he riotes the same complacency and assurance in men he knows will join the others in the shadows that are too deep to penetrate and too uninteresting to explore. Unknown to the multitude he has done his work perfectly, and an essential work more per fectly than most senators, many of- whom may have patron ized him at times. How many a quiet chuckle he must have had."' ' 'm:-T:. - ; ; ... . AND THAT MUCH MORE ' (Portland Journal.) "The Eugene Guard prints a. record of "what makes Eugene, grow and prosper. Here ia a part of it: Fruits, vegetables and nuts, $2,000,000; wool and mohair, $1,500,000; dairy products, $1,000,000; poultry, $1,000,000; hay and grain, $2,500,000. All of -this, it must be noted, came not from inside but outside Eugene's city limits. It ia the country around the town that largely builds the town." ' -'. "3 T ' - -' - i ' . ' ' 1 ' The above, from the Portland Journal is well put. In Salem and her surrounding territory another thing is being done and attempted ; And that is a linking up of the industries on the land with the industries in the city- ' Manufacturing and merchandising and shipping the raw materials coming from the farms and thus bhilding a Gibral ter prosperity. There is scarcely a limit to such expansion. OFFICE BIMIG BILL MEETS FAVOR John B.

Representative John r Bits For Breakfast 3 Likely Wednesday next That Is the guess as tq th fimc the Icgisiature will i adiourn sint die. -," ANOMALIES "For many years we have been informed that what the Willamettt valley and other great agricultural regions needed was a market foi the products of the soil; that is, a living, dependable market. . . -, : ''Accepting this as the underlying reason why Oregon's tremeri dous land resources were so lightly developed, in comparison with others of the Pacific area, the Chamber of Commerce has sought diligently for products which could be harvested here la' commercial quantities, and which could be sold after' they Were produced. In this worthy quest all other thoughtful forces, have been engaged. " ' " ' "Sugar beet was tried at various times. At last a combination of conditions developed which made it possible to secure a sugar beet ' factory in the Willamette valley provided the necessary, acreage was signed up.,; The Chamber thought there could be no doubt about the acreage, as it could be taken under, the same terms' and. conditions .'governing other Pacific coast sugar beet acreage. 1 , 1 "A campaign was put on, the Chamber participating, to get the signatures. . The acreage Weded was not secured-' The most usual explanation was that of the lands declared best adapted to sugar beets, ;Were laid out In more profitable crops. . 'A1I this Is true. There are more than 200,000 acres of lands in the tVlllamette valley between Corvallis and Portland adapted to the production of sugar beets, under present conditions, and 5,000 acres Is enough to sustain one good beet factory. Yet when the need for a full test was asked, this 5,000 acres could not be found, nor even 1,000 acres for a more modest try-out. ''There are 5,000,000 acres, of commercial agricultural land In the ' Willamette valley, according to the soil experts. Of this total, but a ..relatively small portion is Intensively cultivated. . Some should be drained, some irrigated during July and August, some yet should be cleared of stumps, and large areas should be brought back to normal fertility which was Impaired through single crop operations over long periods. " i ' "If there was ever a plaoe anywhere In creation that should have THE SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY. INVOLVING INTENSIVE CUL TIVATION METHODS AND ROTATION OF CROPS, it is the Willam " ette valley. Beets will growj there in splendid manner. They become i.a perfect complement to the great. dairy. industry which roust make its home In j.he valley. They fit Into a great,, stable, -enduring eco- nmic system for the west Side territory, in fact -for the whole ot , the state. ,s, :"tv" ,-:. . ? ' ''There is only one recourse in the premises. Sugar beets must ' be grown In the valley. Another effort' must be "made to get the 2, industry established. , If the next fails, ' more efforts must follow. - Where there Is an opportunity and a need, the issue of which means state prosperity, all public-spirited people have but one order: Keep trying until you win." : . The above is from the "Portland Commerce," organ of the Portland Chamber of Commerce. It speaks truth. It is the right spirit. It is a resolution which, persisted in, will win.

Gieay said. The house is still solidly oehind Governor Patterson's program, he he averred.- With 600 house bills and 25 senate bills coming before them, the legislators have not sufficient time to give all of them due con sideration, he declared; all that any member can do Is to look them over aud investigate careful ly those that look suspicious. Just why the opinions of 30 men in the senate should be able to override the opinions of 60 men in the house, elected by the! same constituency, Giesy Is un able to see. He recounted the fate of a bill he introduced, relating to factory, inspection. The house passed it unanimously, but the' senate defeated it.

Tom Blanton, of Texas, and Sol Bloom oi sew xorK. toaay Drone un a house committee meeting by en gaging in a hand ,to hand scuffle in wnicn me cruet suiierers were the bystanders. The encounter caused one wom an to stand on a chair and pray. resulted In two men spectators coming to blows, and spread con fusion and rumors of sanguinary warfare. It was the third time in less than a week that mem bers of the house and senate have started fights without carrying them to the point of harming each other. "The official committee report er failed to move fast enough to dodge tho battling arm of the par ticipators and received a punch on the jaw. He dropped a pocket knife in trying to get out of the way and until he claimed owner ship a report was current that an other spectator had attempted to stab either Bloom or Blanton. The rumpus began when Bloom took exception to treatment by the committee of a witness, the Rev H. M. Lawson of Washington, who was making a statement, in opposition to a Sunday blue law for the District of Columbia Blanton accused Bloom, who is interested in several New York theatres, of improperly defending motion pictures interests. Bloom said one of Blanton's statements was "not true," 'Blanton coun tered with a liuige at his antag onist and when they were separat ed a moment later, the Texan had the New Yorker pinned down to the committee table. Afterward BlantoA insisted he Bimpfy had held Bloom's wrists, but Bloom thought .otherwise. i "This thing will not stop here," Bloom said.

The occasion was one of the! most solemn, as Dean Straub expjialns. President Lincoln's casket, a the. sbeaker remembered it, was 6f the very best mahogany, with! gold handles. Guards were placed about the rpom, and always tne two lines were moving through. one on each side of the casket. Dean Straub relates how his father impressed the sight j upon him; "Look at Lincoln's face," my father told me. "and then look at the face of all these guards about the room. Now look face again." "And I looked," said emphatically. Dean "And at his Straub ll shall always remember it. I wish that I were an artist or sculptor, ; I could reproduce that face exactly from memory such a firm, kindly mouth, and a chin which receded, - ever so slightly, sucn a strong. fatherly face." What a pity that man had to die!" Professor Straub weint on reminlscently. "He would have done so much for the Sduth- welcomed them back like renegade children..
