Those, who would liberalize the republican party, make America a member of the League of Nations, provide a business instead of a political administration, should work earnestly from now until the primaries for Herbert Hoover as Oregon's choice for the presidency. "Very well" she answered In a (right Mt. Ansel, May T. The warm sun ny duys of the piiMt two weeks have had a pleasing effe.-t upon all kinds t.f fruit tries In this vicinity except the peach trees, and these seem to lp pretty niuli all killed off. In the I'liiKlinlt orchard south of town unil Iko the Hock Hrotliers orchard neuv the Ablqu.-i bridge between here nnd jUlverton, the trees appear to be oil dead and not a sign of bud has ap peared this season. Mr. EiiRllsh, It Is said, will grub out nil of the trees ami ahnndim the orchard, planting it to twine other kind of vegetation which will not be likely to suffer dainase from the. cold. Hock Ilrolhers will lirobubly do likewise. ulthouKh they have not fully decided what to do as yet. This orchard hus been a very profitable Industry In years past and It Is probable that they will replant the trees and continue in the business. The orchard, however, is regarded a total loss. Some orchards in higher lands have been Injured slightly, but not killed throughout, and there will he a few peaches grown here this year. Jos. ricrnt of Spaulding.

Shortage of sugar is alleged but there is no shortage. In stead there is a corner. Statistics compiled by the National City bank show sugar im portations for the present year the largest in history, with heavy exports. The Cuban crop exceeds that of the previous year. Eng land and France have imported huge stocks from Java. The ,iugar crop in India is larger than for years. Germany is manu facturing sugar upon a large scale and exporting half of the out put. The law of supply and demand has been superceded bv arti ficial control. Agreement and combination have replaced com petition. Those who control the machinery of supply make fab ulous profits at the expense of the consumer. During the war, sugar was controlled by the government and the price held down. The sugar board prevented extortion and regulated distribution. With peace, the government has with drawn its control and an era of unexampled profiteering has fol lowed the restoration of sugar to private control. With the restoration of normal conditions, the resumption of 1 A! .1 1 ii I . . priiuucuon ana snipping, rne law oi supply and demand will nrob- ably re-assert itself. If it does not, the people will undoubtedlv demand government control of essentials in peace as well as war. I Repugnant as federal control and bureaucracy may be, it is an alternative to be preterred to the robbery of all the people by private monopoly. If it comes, it will be due directly to the pro fiteers. ' ;..

When arrives the month of May, winter's gone, beyond dis pute; which reflection makes us gay, and our loud bazoos we toot. It is good to go to bed, twenty minutes after ten, knowing that the storms we dread for long months won't come again. It is good to vise at morn in a balmy atmosphere, gazing on the sprouting corn, and the playful colt and steer. May's a pifipin and a peach, o'er whose charms all bards enthuse; of the pebbles on the beach, she's the one the wise boys choose. Oh, a month ago we felt that the winter might return ; and the sleet again might pelt, and there might be Bnow to burn. And it kept' us in suspense, and the weather prophets all were forever on ,the fence, knowing not what might befall. And a month from now we'll fry in. the superheated air; and' no doubt the passers-by will forgive us when we swear, But May brings us no distress, m her genial smiles we bask ; climate as we go to press, is the smoothest man could ask. It's the month that hits the spot, after winter, cold and drear; every other month, I wot, should be May throughout the year. , A'ai'naw, May 6 T)oIhevlk troops fighting In the defense of the city of Kiev have strengthened their resM nnce considerably during the lait !4 hours.

LOVE and MARRIED LIFE By the Noted Author ID AH McGLONE GIBSON IjHjJj Chippy, Jr., at once let out a Mriglit encd cry. ened tone. "But If we can't stir him, I don't know what we'll do." And she began to shriek. "Don't worry!" Rusty shouted."Just say hen you're ready." "I'm ready now," she replied. "One, two, three all together!" Rusty Wren commanded. And he seiz ed the head of Chippy, Jr., and began pulling as .hard as he knew how. Chippy, Jr., at once let out a fright ful cry. "Stop! stop!"- he begged. "I don't know what the trouble is, but I (eel as i( I should break In two!" "Well, well!" exclaimed Rusty. And then to his wife he said: "Were you pushing or pulling?" - . . "Pulling!" she explained. "I was tugging on his coat tails." "Ah! That as the trouble," Rusty told poor Chippy, Jr., who looked quite distressed. "I was trying to pull you out; and she waa trying to pull you In. But you mustn't mind a mistake like that." ''Very well!" said Chippy, Jr., meek ly. "But please don't do it again. "Now " Rusty directed hie wife, so that she might understand clearly what was required of her "now you must push while I pull." All their efforts, however, failed to move the unfortunate Chippy, jr. He remained wedged tightly in the door way. And af last lusty declared that they might aa welVstpp trying to get him through it. .. . u "What you' must do now," he dl pected hla wlfe.V.'is to pu.ll on Chippy, Jr's coat falls, while I push against his head. And In that ay we may be able to clear our doorway. That plan worked better. In a short time ffr.

A NKW 1DK.A. Before I wrote John I received n telegram from him saying he was com ing down on tho afternoon train. Evl dently someone had telegraphed him I was ill again, for his wire said: "I am very much worried about you. lie sure and take enre of yourself until I can eomo and take care of you." I didn't want John to come. 1 was a cowiud. I know If he came and took me In his arms and said the nice things to me that only ha can say I should love him again with all my heart. Strange, Isn't It, that a coming child weaves a magnetic chord be tween man and wife when they have nothing else in common. Before we wero married the glamor of love was over us both. We talked of nothing ex cept ourselves and each other. In that whirlwind of three weeks of John's courtship every one of. my brain facul ties was lulled to sleep by the magne tism of .his presence. One of the Itrasonx. Tt seems to me that this Is one of the reasons why the modern marriage Is so often unsuccessful, neither really knows the other, even though the courtship lasts much longer than mine Love Is one thing and married life Is quite another, I have come to feel that Alice Is right. She has many Interests besides marriage which take up her time. She has heroine Interested in the' affairs of the modern woman and her husband Is perfectly willing that she should be. They are good pals and friends, but I do not think they have ever been lov-; ers. I'm quite sure that the modern novel, the modern drama, and above nil the modern movie exerts a bad In fluence upon modern young men and women. They're always preaching1 Love 1 nil. " You see, we Americans are uch emotional people. In no other country in the world Is delirious and romantic love deemed the only thing that Is nec- erautry to a sueccsniul marriage, in fact, delirious and romantic love Is not deemed necessary to all to a successful niarrlnire anywhere except In America. I The French sharply define lov ns one thing nnd marriage another. iHirlng my stay abroad It seemed to . me. thai 1 had never known a happier life lh;in in the houses of my friends, j most of whose marrUge had been i made French fashion by the fathers ! and mothers, for the sake of financial ; or family reason. I Love Heretic Fait l( one Kliould sppk of a mar- riage nf this kind among American : of tivut secure' ; MVi'lc niiu ttouul be I'.iiiv'.ilci't'd a love steams and the hirrtlc aiiil the listet-r w.Mitd look iutt-n von one liot ntst r.'.oi ;ti in vour i t 1 1 hi . I ! ! i t It ' l o lb women are coming to feel as the French do. I know, for when two or three of them are gathered together there Is always at least one, If not two, who have very radical views on the subject of murriage. Tho other day, when Alice and I were talking, she said, "I believe in making murriage very hard and di vorce very easy." When I repeated this" to John he was horror struck. Ho hud tho old ideas, the old traditions In re gard to the man "until death do us part," while for a man, if '"is 'eart Is true to Pol," nothing else matters, lie is free to love as did the old sailor in tho song, a girl In every port. AVe rush Into matrimony so blindly and It Is A partnership like no other in tho world. There Is no other important partnership that one can not break honorably if one feels that It li unbear able for any reason. But notwithstand ing modern thought has gone a great ways in this broadening direction ,yet more or less suspicion always attaches to the divorced woman. Tastee Very Much Alike, Today I feel that If I were absolute ly free, 1 would never marry another man, and yet I believe that I could really be very happy with Charlie, al though I never thought of marrying him. In many wave our tastes are very much Mike, and yet I have never cared for him in the way that I have loved John. Karl Shepard has flattered me with his attentions, but he, too, I can see, cares for me only In the way that John did. Today I want no more of the tur moil and thrills of this thing that we call love. I want to rest and to be quiet and to be alone. Several years ago I read a poem about a woman who said hat she wanted to be alone and free, to feel how her back could bear bur dens and how she could stand upright on the wild moors and buffet the winds. Ph wild she w tired of the firelight and the comfort and the quiet of her home, yet the poem ended: "And at your kiss I grow Contented so." This is my case exactly, and in such t a mood I wait for John. Tomorrow Kuth Misses Bobby.

About 25 years ago she resided In Salem with her husband and were at that time in charge of an orphan school here. After a residence here of 15 years they moved to California, where they resided until Inst winter when Mrs. Thomiison'a granddaughter Mrs. Traglerl returned her to Salem: 8". W.

Mrs. Rusty was the first to break the silence if a house may be said to ; be silent when there are six children In it, all clamoring for something to eat "I knew we should have some sort of trouble if we took a stranger Into our home," she wailed. "Why, what a the matter now?" Rusty inquired in surprise. "Matter?" she groaned. "Here is this great lout of a boy Inside our house! And we'll never be able to get rid of him.
