That measure is, of course, the Adamson law. It is a little ditncuit to im agine the conditions that would exist now had the crisis not been dealt with which this measure was designed to meet. We may get some vague idea cf it from the relative scarcity and advance in prices caused by the car famine that result ed from our too abundant, em barrassing prosperity. Probably the strike, had it taken place, would have been over long before this date, but we would still be suffering from its effects. The railroads themselves, which are contest ing the law and whose repre sentatives denounce its bene ficent purposes most savegly, would not have made $1,098, 000,000 in net profits. A'strike would not only have checked the inflow of revenue, but would have caused heavy in roads on revenue already earn ed because of defense fund ex penditures. Did congress, in the exercise cf authority it believes to be delegated to it, ever legislate with happier immediate re sults? With good fortune so of Oregon be changed so as to require all municipal elections to be held as part of the general ejection every two years. He Ft"rmates that a saving of $50, Q00 could be worked by the cliange. Such a saving would mean m an average $280 to each town in the state. But on the other hand the change would mean the dumping of munici pal political campaigns into the Tness of state and national poli tics. It would mean partisan mnmnnal ticket" whereas even the most biased of the op position be moved to a more tolerent, to even a kindly dis position, toward this well-considered piece of legislation that preserved the business world from convulsion? Reasoning after the fact, if congress has not this power to avert calamity, is it not unde niable that congress ought to have it? St. Louis patch.

She saw the troops in action and declared that she was very proud of them ami her oresence at the front was a bis event among the brave Lads Amusements What the press agents say about Pendleton's pres ent and coming attractions. There are over ten millions of peo ple In the United States and Canada, who have read Harold Bell Wright 3 charming story of the great north west. "The Winning of Barbara Worth.' Jt is safe to say that many thousands out of those millions have asked the question, "Why wai-, the story never dramatized; it would un doubtedly make a strong plav?' Jt has been dramatized and it has been one of the most successful plays pro duced in years. A beautl'ul scenic production under the management if L. C Yeomans will be seen at Oregon theater next Friday, Jan. 6. To Mark Swan, who has a long lis,; of successes to his credit, belongs the honors for this dramatization. It has been Raid by competent critics that it is much more difficult to dramatize a book than to write an original play, and this is probably true. To make the boom-play successful It is nece.-sary to bring out forcibly ever character of importance; to mak'j the ideal of the mind live and breathe upon the stage. In this re spect Mr. ,Swan has shown the master touch in adapting "The Winning of Barbara Worth." There Is not a sin gle character missing that has the leat bearing on the story. And to gether with the dramatization the high art of the stage carpenter has been brought into use. Every Import ant scene Is faithfuly produced, and probably in the whole category of remarkable stage pictures, there ia no more realistic scene in any play than the sand storm. It was vividly described by Harold Bell Wright in the story and it is just as strikingly realistic in the play. It Is a scene that will live in the mind a long time. Clarence Darrow tells the worner students that they will fall. In that case they can point out many notable precedents in the ranks of the oth r sex.
