MAXIMILIAN HARDEN'S VIEW a news report from Berlin says that Maximilian Harden in his German veekly upholds the attitude of President Wilson both with re ference to submarine warfare nnd the sale of munitions to the r.'lies. He calls attention to the fuct that in past war" Germany, though a neutral nation, has al ways sold war supplies to those in position to buy them. The report is remarkable, not only because it refutes some of the pro-German arguments et forth in toil country, but 3 AST colors in dyestuff material are becoming exhausted and warning is being given by many textile factories they cannot give col or guarantees on fabrics for the coming fall and winter. It is possible your next win ter's suit will fade as clothing was wont to do many years ago before dye makingrwas brought to a state of perfection. Why are not American fac tories turning out dyes that are satisfactory? Some say con gress must place a high pro tective tariff on dyes or no such industry will be establish ed here. The answer to that argu ment js that we have a pro tective tariff on dyes now. The duty on dves was not reduced by the Underwood tariff, as many people have been led to believe. Section 15 of the Payne-Al-drich tariff law reads as fol lows : 15. Coal tar dyes or colors not specially pro pived for in this section, 30 per cent advalorum. In the present tariff law, the Underwood tariff, the above is repeated word for word. The duty on coal tar dyes was not j altered a particle. The same Is true of the duty ion vegetable dyes. The word ing of the Payne-Aldrich law il repeated verbatum in the Underwood law. In view of these facts the claim that greater tariff pro tection is needed sounds like a hoax. An advalorum duty ol 30 per cent should furnish ab undant protection against Euro pean labor, particularly so since dyes are not manufactur ed by "cheap" labor but by highly proficient German chemists. The dye situation is not com plimentary to American inge nuity and enterprise. The cold truth seems to be that we do not know how to manufacture good dyes. If so what we need is better chemists, not a higher tariff. If we are unable to make good dyes a tariff wall a mile high would not improve the situation. THE BUSINESS SITUATION ijm HE business condition of the country is set forth in the following from the last financial review by Henry Clews : Home conditions affecting the market are generally en couraging. Trade and indus try are active, and the mone tary situation remains satisfac tory. Railroads are reporting large earnings. The steel trade shows no abatement of activity. Railroads are still placing lib eral orders for rails and equip ment, and the outlook is for a further continuance of muni tion orders; immense quanti ties of the latter now being shipped abroad. Speculative transactions are being conduct ed with special care,,also with a close regard for daily events. For the better class of invest ment securities there is still a good demand. Funds are abundant. The sale of $40,- ; 000.000 fifty-year AU" New I York City bonds was entirely successful, Comptroller Pren- dergast stating that the price. 5102.617, was the highest on record for New York City bonds paying that rate. The fifteen-year 41. 7, bonds broueht $101.41711. The number of bidders was small, which is not surprising in view ol the enormous amount of bonds of various classes which have been issued during the past twelve months. The break in the market which came in the middle of the week was due to President Wilson's note to Germany and a reluctance to carry stocks over the Good Fn day holiday. FROM THE PEOPLE THE MAKE is niKTII. I certainly fitting; and appropriate to commemorate the names of old pio neers when opportunity oflers. Among the earliest of Umatilla county's pioneer settlers were the Rieths four brothers and two sisters: Jacob, Eugene, Louis and Joseph. Mary and Julia, who settled at the mouth of Birch creek. Eugene, Louis and Julia are still liv ing, Eugene and Louis residing some where in the state of Washington and Julia (now Mrs. Currani residing a. North Yakima, W'asn. Joseph died on the ranch In the spring of 1S69. Jake died in Tacoma a few years ago, and Mary, the late -Mrs. Fanning, died in Pendleton. Jake and Joe were with the famous Bonner party, who were lost In crossing the plains and settled at the mouth of the creek about 1862, the others coming later. In the early history of Umatilla county the itleths were among the foremost and most highly respected citizens of the county, and have al ways been held in the highest esteem, wherever known. Instead of Itleth s ranch It is now the eltjr of Kleth. Good! LOT LlVEKMOItr.. IN BANKRUPTCY. MOI1K ABOUT THE RIKTIIS. Vancouver, Wu-sh., April 24, 1919. Editor Kast Oregonian: In a recent issue of the Uast ore- gonian a news item appeared regard ing the changing of tne name of Pi lot Rock Junction to that of Itleth and the seeming mystery surrounding the origin of the name in connection with that particular locality. It is not at all unlikely thut the name was used as being that of the lirst. or one of the first owners of land purchased by the O.-W. R. & N. Co. or pioneer settlers in that vicinity. The three Kleth brothers, Eugene, Louis and-Jake, lived in that vicinity during the early seventies and for years after. Jake Itleth resided on the north side of the Umatilla river while Eugene and Louis lived on Birch creek, a very short distance above the confluence of the Umatilla river and Birch creek. The Kleths were engaged in the sheep and cattle business and after disposing of their land and stock Ku gene moved to Pendleton where he re sided for several years. Yours truly, J L SHARON. Editor East oregonian: I want to express my gratification at the seler tlon of the name of Kleth for the new town at the mouth of Birch ereek. it AN IMPORTANT FUNCTION In the promotion and main. tVnfinor of good heallfr is LIVER REGULARITY and any disturbance of this function ma be corrected by HOSTETTERS Stomach Bitters In the District Court of the United States for the District of Oregon.
