Although the American Newspaper Publishers association has urged that its members restrict themselves In theiir use of news print in order toi conserve the limited supply and keep the price within the reach of the small country publisher the three Portland dailies with the largest cir culation have paid no attention to the, request. Instead of practising economy in the use of news print they have run wild. Absolutely no attention has been paid to the needs of the situation. They have their supply arranged for at a low price and are willing that any oilier user go hang. How different the attitude of the leading New York newspapers Is seen from the following quotation from Editor & Publisher, an eastern trade journal. "To conserve news print paper, the New York Times, Tribune, Evening Sun, Sun-Herald and the Evening Telegram have entered into an agree ment to eliminate, certain Sunday magazine features, discontinue bull dog editions, and eliminate certain other feature pages, in addition to tabulated matter, such as record of . real estate transfers, court calendars, etc. "In addition to the above, all of these newspapers have made reduc lions running from two to four pages daily by elimination of court calen dars, real estate transfer, and muni cipal departmental news, as well as reduction of sporting and other feat ure departments. "The estimated saving of tonnage divided among the five newspapers is 325 Vz tcms a week, or 16,925 tons a yeai-." - We trust that our readers will not misunderstand our frequent refer ence to this matter. It is not be cause our ox is being gored and we are calling for sympathy. It is be cause of the general recognition of the public interest in the mainten ance of the country newspaper and tlje hope that by calling attention to the wasteful practices of the Port land dailies they may be brought by the pressure of public opinion to con form to the requests of the Publish ers association and the Federal trade commission. iney nave it in their power to save hundreds of tons of paper. If they do not do so it will be because they are deaf to the call of deceit business practice. Forgotten You know how savagely we swore that profiteers must go, six months ago, or maybe four for they're a public foe. There was a marshaling of clans of lawyers brave and bold; and there were fierce statistics fans, whose zeal would ne'er grow cold. Our breasts were filled with golden hope, we planned out gorgeous schemes; we saw the hang man with his rope walk through our fevered dreams. Upon the highest gallows tree the profit eers would hang, and we would dance, in honest glee, about the swinging gang. And still by prices we are pinched, we weary sons of toil; and has a profiteer been lynched, or shot, or boiled in oil? We send the lessor scamps to jail for swiping gro cers' beans, embezzling paltry chunks of kale, or robbing slot machines. Our brave resolves have taken wings and flown to roosts afar; alas, we're always starting things which left unfinished are. The rising prices make us wail as we shell out the rocks; I've seen no profiteers in jail, or in the vil lage stocks. The. poles at the intersections of Oregon street with Wall and Bond had their justification so long as flags were flown from them. Now, with only a tattered Victory loan flag on one and the other bare they are any thing but ornamental. If they are to remain where they are flags Should be flown from them. Other wise they should come down. ' Daily Market Report (rarnlsaed by arraarement with Central Oreron Bank.) the LIVESTOCK. NORTH PORTLAND, March' S. t,Attte-"Keceipts, 1453.

WOOD HAS VARIED CIVIL EXPERIENCE ADMINISTRATIVE QUALITIES ARE TESTED AND PROVED IN HAN DLING GREAT BUSINESS PROBLEMS. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Kroin time to time people nnk, H'hnt IjiiH been file administrative ml' business experience of Leonard Wood? - Wliut fins been his experience Willi men outside of the army? Wlint does lie know about conditions In' the different parts of tfie United .States and In our overseas possessions? Has lie uuvtlioraiigli knowledge of foreign affairs and of our foreign relations?" The administrative dualities of Leonard Wood hnve been tested arid proved. No American living has been fried more thoroughly than he in com plex fields of constructive civil work, administrative work of the highest order which carried with It the neces sity for the exercltse of keen business acumen. , . i . . , ... - The republic of Cuba, built upon firm democratic foundations. Is a mon ument to (he administrative ability of Leonard Wood. In the Philippines Is to be found another monument to his statesmanship. Leonard Wood graduated in medi cine from Harvard University in 181 and served for more tlmn a year in one of the great hospitals, later to take charge -of ' the charity depart ments In a section of the city of Bos-' ton where the poor lived. Not long after the completion of Wood's work In Boston he became an assistant surgeon in the army, coming Into contact, ty.ljh. Die; yes.t?rn plains man, the miner, the people generally, and giving much of his time to the work of assisting the Indians and to s study of the problems of Irrigation and reclamation. Then for Leonard Wood there came four years in California. He -covered tlije state many times In pursuance of his duties and extended his Held ns occasion required Into the stoles of the Northwest. Then for two years he was In service In the South, liming headquarter In Georgia. ' " From the South Lennard Wood went to the city of Washington, where his work brought lilm Into dally contact with Grover Cleveland. Then he had the same Intimate relations with Wil liam McKlnley and the men of his time. Then came the Spanish war and the active campaign In Cuba ns thij col onel of the regiment of rough riders of which Theodore Roosevelt was the lieutenant colonel. At the close of the Spnnlsh wur Leonard Wood's supreme administra tive duties began. He was made the governor of the city of Santiago and a few weeks later of the entire east ern half of Cuba. - Under Wood .profiteering was aliol shed, Industry was built up, agricul ture rehabilitated, hospitals organ Isi'd, equipped -and maintained,-; tens of .thousands of people clothed; and f Ml and all this (lone In a thorough businesslike manner. It was done tin der tribulations which arose from he fact that the people were- Im poverished to the -point of starva tion and had been dying by thousands for the lack ef the things which Wood quickly provided, :. Then there came the rehabilitation of tb municipalities, the . establish ment of schools, the opening of road, the organizing of government In the provinces, the readjustment of luxa tion and of Ihe courts, and the work of providing for the thousands of chiN dren made orphans by war or famine. There was more business nnd nion: I: I J iFnwARnwnnn AnMiNKTRATnr? p I i t . i X"e II f V' tis kin. f-i II vtirlellos of It tlmn It has been (ho lot of nii,n,v men ever to hnvo placed on (heir kIiiiiiIiIoi-m.
