It is difficult to thoroughly do
so at this time but some of the
misdeeds stand out plainly,
The Bean bill playing into the
hands of the railroad company
with reference to taxing the
forfeited grant ands is one
such measure. Already one
prominent member of the pub
lic land committee in congress,
Lenroot. is out with a predic
tion of penalty for Oregon if
this state goes too far in its im
position upon the federal government.
It will be remembered in
this connection that under the
Chamberlain bill congress
grants this state 50 per cent of
rx i the proceeds . from the grant

HOW TO LIVE LONG
HAT it is safer to be mar
ried than single is the
substance of a report
made by Professor Wilcox of
Cornell after a close analysis
of census figures with refer
ence to New York City.
The following is his table
giving the percentages with
reference to single, married
f-nd divorced people:
-Male. ' " '

Age '- Single -Married Divorced

The showing seems conclu
sive and as it is based on cens
us figures the argument is not
open to the objection that mar
ried life merely seems longer.
DEBTS AND DEBTS
ANY people have a holy
horror of debt, no mat
ter how or why it is in
curred. They see little differ
ence between a debt incurred
upon an investment and debt
resulting from failure to meet
current expenses.
In the current Farm and
Fireside we read of occasions
when it is advisable to incur
debt. i
Going into debt fora piece
of property or an article of
value and then gradually pay
ing it off," says the writer,
"gives you the use of the pro
perty in the meantime, and is
an excellent means of saving
money.
"Let us try to overcome the
fear of debt and the prejudice
against it, for when not allow
ed to become master it is an ex
cellent servant. Working side
by side with personal industry,
it helps us to get happiness,
comforts, and many other
things in life worth while."
The advice is not bad and
furthermore it represents a
policy generally followed by
businessmen, large as well as
small. Virtually all large en
terprises, railroad building in
cluded, is financed through use
of borrowed money. If such a
line of action is safe when
used by such companies it is
equally safe when used by pri
vate individuals provided equ
al care is taken to ascertain the
safety and reliability of the in
vestment.
Giving the president power
to use-the army and navy for
protection of American rights
in action short of war sounds
good; protection of our rights
without war is what the coun
try desires and should have.
Having won- the world's
buckaroo championship and
having been sculped by one of
the world's famous sculptors,
Jackson Sundown can afford to
rest on hia laurels.
The weather department is
giving us a flurry to keep the
world from budding out too
soon.
