Brodie of the Oregon City Enterprise happened to drop in on a friendly call the then. day. They chatted as editors do about the narrative and state of religion we mean politics; and Editor Ingalls made the discovery that Editor Brodie thought air was duck soup for Governor Patterson. Mister Brodie was not at all his usual self if he made such a firm commitment which his colleague would dare to pub lish as soon as he was out of town. For is not Brodie the diplomat of Oregon, ex-minister to Siam and Johnny Kel ly's appointee as minister to China? We wonder if the Cor- vallis editor is not breaking a confidence to divulge that Mr. Brodie is all lined up on the Patterson band-wagon? Or may it be perish the thought thit Editor Brodie ts on his biennial excursion into the hinterland, calling on .the "boys," seeing that the state is safe for republicanism, private ownership of utilities or what have you? If that is the case we feel badly slighted. For how could the Oregon City editor get to Corvallis without passing through Salem? And if he passed through Salem, why didn't'he stop here and stick a fever thermometer under our tongue to see if we were normal or not? If the state press is to be "lined up," why here we are. Ah, we have it. Mr. Brodie surely stopped in Salem, but instead of calling at 215 South Commercial he worked the other side of the street, and "lined up" Editor Putnam for th owM-nor. We shall see. we shall see.' Our intentions 3Jr -pish:.?:! Lnnnfc! n i BITS for BREAKFAST -By R. J.

So the deal was in no sense a promotion enterprise but a sound business under taking on both sides. -. At that there is always regret at the passing of a bank. It leaves a gap in the ranks. It sunders those intangible as sets of personality which a bank may possess as well as an -individual. There is always some dislocation whether of per sonnel or clientele. Like the horse who always wants to turn in at the gate of a former master, many a depositor will find himself trying to enter the former ,hanking house with his daily deposit Banking, like newspaper reading, falls so easily into a habit. The officers of the old Bank of Commerce, who prob ably regret more than anyone else, to see it pass from the picture, may take commendable pride in their achievement Under their administration the bank has grown and prosper ed, and they turned over assets clean and "in good health." The First National now can grow on the good foundation ' "laid by both institutions. ' fractured skull and an Injured spine and died three hour later In a hospital. S S In the seventies Mr. Moores was a student at Willamette university while living: at the home of his uncle, J. H. Moores ot Salem. He was a cousin of C. B. Moores of Portland and A. N. Moores of Sa lem. . The Indianapolis Sentinel In its issue the following afternoon con tained many tributes to Mr. Moores from leading citizens of that city. He was admitted to the Indianapolis bar In 1883. He had been prominent In law and pol itics in that state and the na tion. He was elected to congress from the Marlon county (Indian anolis) district In 1914, and re elected four successive times, serr Ing 10 yean In all. He was re publican and a Presbyterian, and unmarried. He served on impor tant committees in the house, part of Che time being on the commit tee on foreign affairs when great issues were being considered. W 1i He was the son of Charles W. Moores and Julia Merrill Moores ot Indianapolis, and was born In that city April 21, 1856. Ho was graduated from Tale in the class ot 1878 with William Howard Taft, with whom he was on terms great Intelligence. In this relation, in all relations of life, Mr. Moores was faithful, faithful to the people he served and to what he conceived be to their interests. Few men in this community knew more about the political history ot the country or indeed of Great Britain. The origin .and na ture of our institutions had been the subject of his life long study. and he had pretty well mastered the subject. In the house ot rep resentatives he was recognized by his colleagues as a man of ability, and respected as such. m : 'But It Is of Merrill Moores as mend, associate and... neighbor tnat those who knew him best will think today. Through his family connection ne was a sort ot insti tution in this town.jrbje old-timer felt that he was ."one -of them. Sometimes men do not need to be very old to fcecomft a sort of tra dition. It was to with Mr. Moores Both in his own personality and by his Inheritance he was part of the community Jife at few are. And he was a Hrorthy represen tative, and also he was true to the tradition in which he lived There will be many to deplore his death, many who will remember him with , kindly thoughts, and also many who will feel that they 4-have lost a friend." la that not a tribute that any man might cravo to have paid to him ..upon his passing from this sphere ot action T S Outside ot these Intimately In terested, like the growers and the packers, what is the propor tion of our people who realize the epochal things that are happen ing In our fruit Industries? AH the six to eight-millions of pounds or more of strawberries sent from the Salem district this year In the various cold pack forms have been told. And that is true of the big peek this year (the first year for these in Quantity volume) of evergreen blackberries. It is true, too, of all our loganberry pack In Tnere is also much encourage ment In the favorable protective tariff rate that are now Quite well assured for our nut and cher ry and bulb and other growers. This will mean more rapid expan sion of our nut orchards. Instead of 7009 acres ot filberts and 15,- 000 acres of walnuts, we will be fore many years have 190,000 acres, and we win have large plantings ot chestnuts, and per haps ot black walnuts in our for est areas. The returns wUl mount ap into many millions annually. And we will get maraschino fac tories tor our cherries, and many more and larger packing and can ning and processing concerns. With aU this development, with the enormous arrowth in our flax and linen Industries tnat is on the way. wun major irrigation sys tems, and still water in the Wil lamette river, and all the other things that are surely coming, can any man with vision see anything out growth and prosperity for Sa lem, and for this whole valley? we surely have the land of di versity and the country of oppor tunity, wnai wo neea is a new birth ot what may be termed the superiority complex in our people regarding their opportunities and tneir abiuty to and duty of de veloping and taking advantage of mem. .

Living expenses go up for summer's jungles are no longer inviting to vag rants of the road. Employment opportunities go down. So the easy road to a living is chosen. Stealing 4s resorted to. Criminals and near-criminals swarm to the cities with their lights and cheap lodging houses and warm pool halls. They gang up for jobs bigr and little.
