HENDRICKS- The National Guard HOW much should Oregon spend on its national guard? Some say, cut out the guard entirely, it never has been called out for service except in one minor labor difficulty in Portland. Others say, cut the guard in half. Still others would make only a small reduction in its staff or expenses. Undoubtedly the state could reduce its expenditures . on the guard over what they have been for the past few bien nims. But we want to call the attention of the public to the fact that the guard is not stricly a local enterprise. It is part of a national organization for defense. In the old days the state militia was more of a dress-up drill organization than a body trained for real fighting. De pendence on raw militia has been disastrous to the nation in most of the wars this country has engaged in. Washing ton justly cursed the levies of militia which came to him from various states, and with which he was supposed to defeat the regulars of Great Britain. The world war showed again the folly of unpreparedness, and the great cost of raising and equipping great armies overnight. Bryan's million men might spring to arms, but they would be worthless without months of intensive training before entering the front ranks. As a result of the war ex perience the national government took a hand in the main tenance and training of the national guard. No longer is it merely a show organization with blue uniforms and guns and bright swords. It is clad in service khaki, and trained for the grim business of fighting. It is directly supervised by the war department. We live in a world of reality and the Japanese invasion of China has shown the danger of deluding ourselves that the era of permanent peace is at hand. An army of civilian soldiers, well-trained, like the present national guard, is not an incitement to militarism; and it is a bulwark of defense in case of emergency. The legislature should consider the support of the guard, not merely for keeping up a body able to suppress violence within our borders, but as a unit of a great reserve army of the United States. By all means reduce the cost to lowest levels. Cut out any trappings and excesses and frumpery, if such there be; but remember that until war is finally and actually abolished we must maintain a small regular army and a vast body of reserves like the national guard. Doe Licenses COMES the time of year when the pooch must be provided with a new brass Dlate on his collar to signify that his master has made appropriate contribution to the county for his survival another year. Otherwise on some dread day the dog-snatcher will come round, and it's boloney for Fido or Shen. And the licenses this year are lower in cost, two dol lars for female and one dollar for the male of the species. That will be good news for boys who have to earn the license fee for their net docs. Just why should a license be required for a dog? Few of those who nay the fee know what the money is used for. It goes into a fund which is used to reimburse sheep-owners ii i e t a i . uA amw asvmA tfvf thAin tiswi itiiia1 nxr rtrsrra a onrr of dog-socialism as it were, where the sins of the indi vidua are borne bv the whole dog society.

There are the dead sheep, the killer claims no master who may be held responsible; so the army of dog owners, owners of dachshunds and police dogs, ' of collies and spaniels have to pungle up once a year to pay the farmer for his dead sheen.

The cities are wanting to shoulder in on the dog matter Why tax the town dogs for damage of the country dogs? Why not let the license on town dogs go to the city treasury?

"SUrer Dollar:" Eple of an epoeht Screened at Elslnoret H Based on the book of David Karsner, -SUrer Dollar," the eft tot screen play that Is taking by storm the fancy of American the atre goers, la to be at the Elsf nore Saturday night, , and Bun day, Monday and Tuesday. The story's high lights: V Men by the tens and scores of thousands, la all former walks and conditions, chasing the rain bow, were lured by the siren song of surer In Colorado's heo tic days of her pioneer life; count less picturesque characters rose to the heights of success and fell; ruined by the false gods of gold, gambling, girls and the gussling of gin But they were all small of stat ure and shooting stars In the sky that was the limit of their mete oric flights, compared with the Mldas-touched and balloon-Infla ted H. A. W. Tabor, swaggering New England stone cutter, who left Maine with his prim and prop er schoolmarm bride; bound for the farmlands of Kansas, spurred on by Horace Greeley's "Go West, young man, and grow up with the country! S The Tabor newly-weds trareled by train to St. Louis, by boat to Kansas City with oxen and a corered wagon to the snake-ridden wilderness which was to prore the gateway to the then groom's Napoleonic conquests, and, in the fullness of time, to his Waterloo.

Green Rus sell of Georgia find the yellow metal there and set the whole country agog: the traces In the sands of Cherry creek, nresent site of Denrer. So began the Pike's Peak rush." m S Tabor, now keeper of a general store, thrilled at the magic word. Their possessions heaped in rick ety carts, thousands passed his door, and he found himself hum ming the road-song of those lusty days: "It's time to pack the ba con and the flour and the beans," etc It was April, '59, that the Ta bors and their small son, Mark, reached the straggling boom town of tents and cabins called St. Charles. Tabor was barely 30. S Tabor disapproved the name of his mushroom town St. Charles. He set about changing it. Poker Annie opposed. But Tabor won; the name was changed, by rote in the squalid but principal saloon. Yesterdays ... Of Old Salem Town Talks from The States man of Earlier Days January 18, 1008 Mayor Rodgers yesterday noti fied "Dad" Grier, who recently went to the expense of building a platform out from the curb In front of the Model barber shop on Commercial street on which to place his mammoth new peanut roaster, that he must vacate im mediately in compliance with the city ordinance pertaining to ob structions in the streets on the sidewalks. The mayor also noti fied Chief of Police Gibson to ar rest every groceryman who did not comply with the ordinance. The Gray Eagle, tow boat oper ated by the C. K. Spaulding Lum ber company, narrowly missed go ing orer the falls at Oregon City yesterday. A stick caught In the wheel and prevented the engineer from applying the power. A cable dragged to land eared the boat from going orer.

Pussy Willows Come At Spring Vanguard HAZEL GREEN, Jan. 12 The pussywillows are blooming, the meadow lark Is singing and sprint is here. Farmers are resowing their fields. The wheat and straw berries were damaged much more than at first reported. as the story goes, to Denrer, In honor of the gorernor of Kansas, whence the Tabors hailed. T v . ; r. After several rounds 'of drinks. Tabor was chosen mayor, by ac clamation. Later he was told, on the quiet, of a big strike neat LeadvOle city 'of the clouds. Clouds Indeed; clouds with a sil ver lining. Again the Tabors were on the more. Lead vine, a new home, such as It was I Another general store for the Takers bacon a dollar a pound; coffee six dollars, flour $100 a barrel. All the time ho was prospecting, too; going out with shovel, pick and pan. n a few months he had washed out 17000, the first of his vast fortune. The fates laughed with him the day he grub-staked two Hinknown Ger mans for prorlsiona amounting to $04.71. He was to recelre a third of the profits. They looked for gold found silrer. It netted Ta bor orer a million. He became mayor of Leadrllle, and postmas ter, and county treasurer, still running the store. S S He bought what was supposed a salted mine -It turned out to be the richest in the country; made him twice orer a million aire. Newspapers In the east be gan to print stories about him, using his picture. He was riding the silrer wares. He wanted to build a city; to be gorernor, may be president. "Lincoln was onee poor, and ran a store," he often repeated. S S He donated lavishly to church es. The town needed an auditor ium; he hired a regiment of car penters and in a month the Wig wam, seating $000, rose next to the O. K. saloon. He built an op era house In Leadvllle; became president of a bank, lieutenant governor of Colorado. He was ever after dubbed "gorernor." The silrer millions multiplied. b On to Denrer. He decided to build an opera house worthy of the capital city. The Tabor Grand arose cost, a million. Furnished with all the splash and tinsel money could buy. Tabor's prirate office looked like a breakfast room In the Palace of Versailles. (The writer saw "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde" played In the Tabor Grand, In 1889. by its greatest In terpreter. (What was his name?) The Tabor Grand Is stUl Denver's leading picture house. It was once the finest theatre In Amer ica; is yet one of the best in the western half of the continent.) S Enter here Baby Doe, demure, blonde divorcee of the mining camps, coming into the life of the modern Midas; the opening night of the Tabor Grand. General Grant was In the audience, sitting in the gUded box of the builder. Tabor slapped him on the back and regaled him with tales of his wealth. As Tabor rose from his gilt chair to make his speech. Baby Doe, seated in a box. lean ed forward to catch his words. His own wife wasn't there she could not face the public humiliation of being in the same house with Baby Doe! The bride of his youth, sharer of the hard days of his upward climb, was getting old; she lacked the xest of the allurements of Baby Doe. Tabor bought from the Colorado legislature a 30-day seat in the United States senate, and bis public wedding in Wash ington to Baby Doe was attended by President Arthur as honor guest. W He was riding high; erected a palace for Baby Doe; built a great hotel, to spite the owner of one across the street who was not kind to him and his new wife. He erected the Tabor block in Den rer; lavished his Xmilllons In countless grand as wA( as devi ous ways. S S Cleveland, became president; the gold standard demonetised silver. The bubble blew up. Pov erty came. Tabor was appointed postmaster of Denrer. The broken hearted wife of his youth, still loring, tried to help him In his last, sad days. She died. Baby Doe still llres. Their daughter, named "Silrer Dollar," met a vi olent death la Chicago's tender loin. S This is a mere outline of the thrilling story. (Continued tomorrow.) "THE BLACK SWAN V By Rafael - er - - al chatte rbrrr -raN As the first step toward cut ting down costs at the state pris on, Gorernor Pierce said y eater day that he has supplanted the $3000 prison automobile with a Ford.

He bant: and kissed her. Ifrwas his Intention to kiss her cheek; but she turned her Hps fuDy to meet his own. "Charles I " she said again. In that low, anguished voice. Monsieur de Berate stepped hack, and wared te HaRiwelL The corpulent shipmaster obeying the signal picked her up in his arms, and waded out to bestow her In the stern-sheets of the waiting boat, Then the Major and Pierre fol lowed, swung each a leg orer the aide, took their places en the thwarts, and got out the sweeps. The buccaneers gave the boat forward thrust, and so she launched upon her voyage, a little white flag of truce fluttering In her bows. Monsieur de Bends stood with the wavelets rustling at his feet watehing the boat for a little while. Priscilla did not look back. She sat in the sternsheets, with her shoulders to the shore, a little crumpled figure in green. At last he turned, and very slowly, with his chin sinking into the ruffles at his throat, he mored up the beach, Bundry and Ellis following aha with no word spoken. In the longboat Prisdlla softly weeping, so that at last Pierre, who sat beyond the Major, was mored to comfort her. He spoke to her ever the Major's shoulder. "Mademoiselle," he begged her la French, "do not weep. There is no need. All will be well with Mon sieur de Bernis. He knows what he Is doing. Believe me, all will be well with him." "And, anyway," said the Major, "it's no great matter if it isnt.' Thus he expressed the bitterness aroused in him by that little scene ho had witnessed at the water's edge. It provided a fitting, exasper ating climax to all that he had been constrained to endure ia this past month. It was high time, he thought, te restore things te their proper places ia their lires, high urns tnat rascuia snouid recover the perspeetire which she ap peared, from her latest conduct, utterly to hare lost. The vision of that kiss was something that haunted the Major, and set his memory shuddering with horror. Roughly, then, did he attack the business of correcting the focus of Miss Priscffla's mental sight. His words certainly had the im mediate effect of checking her tears. Momentarily, at least, her concern, anxiety, and grief were overcome by indignation. From a white, tear-stained face her eyes biased as they encountered the Major's. "What do you dare te say?" she asked him, with such scornful an ger that ho would not hare had the De Bends sighed, and smiled agate, a Uttie saaVr. "So, Priscflla. There is no mere te say. It is perhaps just as welL" temerity te repeat his words even if she had given him time. "Is that how yoa speak of a man who has placed himself ia danger, who has pledged his very life to ensure our safety, to provide us with a means of escape?" The Major, meeting resentment with resentment, answered sullenly. "I doat perceive that at alL Stab me if I do." "Ton dont? Then yoa are even more stupid than I have been sup posing you." "Priscmat" He stopped rowing in his unutterable stupefaction. Pierre's oars, sweeping rhyth mically forward, struck his ov suspended ones, and jarred him unpleasantly, and almost knocked him off his thwart But he paid lit tle heed to that. Recovering his balance mechanically, he sat with fallen jaw and goggling eyes, star ing incredulously at this fledgeling who had dared to say such a thing to him. It was the end of the world. unry tne reauaanoa tnat, over wrought, she was not responsible for her words enabled him to eon done it. He smiled with the patient, exasperatingiy indulgent amuse ment of noble minds. -now rasa yoa are in your con clusions! Ton display the intoler ance of youth and inexperience." "Better than the mean intoler ance of age from which you appear to De susenngv sir." This was a cruel thrust under the Major's guard. But, having re covered from one stupefaction, he waa now prepared for anything. In the same Indulgent tone he con tinued. "This pirate fellow Is using us for his own ends. If you can't see that, you must be purblind, Pris cilla. Consider the terms of the message . . ." There ia nothing to consider but what he is doing. No perversity, no meanness, can change the ap- peaxaace ox UlK. at nas SAd no thought but to deliver us. It is noble of him. It justifies all my steaay isatn in aim. The Major permitted himself to laugh at this. Looking at his face, distorted by that sardonic hilarity, she considered it the most repul sive she had ever seen. "Noble I" he mocked, and went on to explain his point of view. Thai nobility is rooted in concern for his own skin. Finding himself caught uus taievmg pirate nopes to mass terms; and he counts himself lucky to have us under his hand, so thai he may send us with his message mars nis nooury, as you anas see, child." From behind him came the gea tie voice and the imperfect Englisl of Pierre. "If Monsieur de Bernis eeeapt himself from tls, he shall be to! what a rood ocinion you 'ave as him." "Why, so he ahaUl I shall tal him so, myself," the Major snorted in fresh anrer at this fnrthei opposition. Ill-humouredly he bent to the oars again, and after that an angry silence reirned In the boat. Prta. ,effla disdaining to push the argu ment runner. In this mood thav nnu hnmntns alongside of the Royal Mary, Mor gan s nagsnip, until Pierre, stand ing at the bows, steadied the long boat at the feet of the nt-i-.n-. ladder. Miss Priscilla, disdaining the as sistance of the Major's proffered hand, but accepting that which Pierre extended, was the first te climb the tall red side of the ship, with Major Sands following dose behind to save her from falling is ease of need. At the head of the ladder ahe was received by a middle-aged overdressed man of an almost obese habit of body, whose yellow fleshly face, adorned by a pair of drooping' moustaches, was coarse snd unprepossessing. This was Sir Henry Morgan. From the bulwarks he had watched her ascent of the accommodation ladder with s scowling stare. He advanced U hand her down into the waist of the ship. Having done so he stood back a pace to surrey her. Behind him, beyond the main-hatch stood a score of musketeers drawn op in file, s youthful-looking of fleer stand inr a few mh -a them. Like Morgan they, too. stared, when ther saw tk& 1.4- standing at the head of the accom modation ladder. (T B Caotiaac) DUtrtboted hr Kiac Fsatarei Stadia?
