Through unified inan figement these resorts could aid each other and thereby accom plish mutual good while rendering a real service to the traveller. The rates would necessarily have to be in proportion to the ser ice rendered. Pint it would be a mistake to make the charges excessive.

FATHER LOVE " I VER at Tacoma a jfather who kidnaped his own child away from his divorced wife pleaded guilty to the charge and has been sentenced to serve a term of from 10 to 15 years in the state penitentiary. There is room for reflection over this case. The father may be worthless, he may have been actuated not by love for the boy or a desire to help him but with intent to harass the more de serving mother. On the other hand the facts may be very different Father love, like mother love, is strong. This father may hit thought that he should have the boy and that his divorced wife was an improper custodian. He may have acted from good motives. Who knows? Who knows that the law by sending him to pris on for at least 10 years is not committing a more serious crime than the father ever contemplated? We may smugly assume that the judge and jury knew the facts and sought to mete out justice.' They may have done so and again they may have! harshly punished a parent for following that high instinct which calls for protection of one's offspring: i ' f ' ''''' ' ' ... , t ., - ... nnstmas Jhve When the doors swing shut one of the greatest trade events in Umatilla Coun ty will comrto-an end. Don't be a Too -Later! , ; Sale Now in Full Blast O WHERE OREGON IS LOSING OUT REGON as a whole has a vital interest in the develop ment of tourist business. The tourist, either directly or indirectly, patronizes nearly every line of business in the state. Often tourists locate here, provided they like what they find, and they bring new capital to the state. They should lie encouraged. But we are lax about caring for the tourist trade. The con ditions at Crater lake have been severely criticised and a special committee appointed to investigate Has found that there was much basis for complaint. The committee found that the manager of the lodge at Crater lake was doing the best he could but is not well adopted to the work and fails to meet ex pectations largely through lack of sufficient capital. However, Crater Lake i3 not our only resort that falls down in the matter of caring for the needs of travellers. In Eastern Oregon, Wallowa lake is a wonderfully attractive spot. But it is so inadequately developed that from the standpoint of accom modations it is a disappointment There is need at Wallowa lake for a modern hotel or lodge to care Tor visitors. Our seacoast resorts are similarly short in the matter of hotel accommodations, so much so that the congestion becomes terrific during the heighth of the season. More hotels are need ed at the coast. r One of the difficulties comes from the fact the question of accomodations at these places has been allowed to go by default. Local men have tried to meet the situation but nearly always they lack experience in modern hotel work and do not have the necessary money for improvements. j o TRULY WONDERFUL NE of the biggest jokes of the season consists in frantic pleas being matle for 'relief of the puDlic" through changes in the federal tax laws. Eastern' millionaires and profiteers are cut to the quick by the fact much of the pres ent tax is passed on to the consumer. They want to provide re lief by making the consumer pay it all. It is ' a wonderful scheme for reform in behalf of the people. It is a heads I win and tails you lose proposal. There are doubtless defects in the excess profits tax and in the income tax. But the chief defect from the rich man's standpoint is that he has had to pay his fair proportion of the national expense. No wonder he wishes scientific revision of the tax laws. The scientinc way of course is to take the burden off the shoulders of the wealthy and place it on the c&nsumer in such a way the tax will be paid without knowing it. It's a great life if you dont weaken.
