Pnbllahed wery ereplng wcept gnsda Telephone SI; Dwa S "GEORGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher PANTOMIME By J. H. Striebel The New Postage Stamps A new eleven cent postage stamp, peacock blue, with a portrait of former president Rutherford B. Hayes has been placed on sale at Fremont, Ohio, in connection with the com memoration of the centenary of Hayes birth. The first stamp from the press was presented to Mrs. Harding, inis is the first of a complete new series to be placed on sale generally within the next thirty days. . . Whenever this Hayes stamp is seen, it will raise the question, why Hayes? What did Hayes do to win a recogni tion denied to so many abler presidents and so many more distinguished Americans? His chief claim lies in the fact ut u the Kimfi(irv of fraud, and only received the 1 1 let h. tlC caw? Viiv -"-'--- -' J - - , , , presidency which he lost by a large popular majority as the result of political chicanery, never belore or since pracucea ial fWtifin and which would not be tolerated today. As president he ranks as one of the most mediocre but perhaps this is the reason he is singled out for honor, on the principle that the common-place are entitled to recogni tion as well as the distinguished. The portrait or designs for the entire series are: 1-cent, Franklin; 2-cent, Washington; 3-cent. uncom; 4-ceni, Martha Washington; 5-cent, Roosevelt; 6-cent, Garfield; 7cent, McKinley; 8-cent, Grant; 9-cent, Jefferson; 10-cent, Monroe; 1 1-cent Hayes; 12-cent, Cleveland; 14-cent, Indian; 15-cent, Statue of Liberty; 20-cent, Yosemite; 25-cent Niag ara; 30-cent, buffalo; 50-cent, Arlington Amphitheatre; ?1, Lincoln Memorial; $2 Capitol; $5, American. " The Roosevelt 5 cents stamps will be ready for distnbu nn rvtfthpr 27. the anniversary of the birth of Roosevelt, and the new 50 cent Arlington Amphitheatre and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, will be placed on sale Armistice Day, November 11. Concerning the selections tne rosiai de partment announces: 'The portraits include Washington and Jetferson as lathers ot our institutions; Kranklla aa the first postmaster general; Martha Washington, to commemorate the pioneer womanhood of America; Lincoln. Garfield and McKialey as "the martyr Presidents; Monroe to mark the foreign policy associated with his name, with Grant, Hayes. Cleveland and Roosenelt carrying on the historical line to a recent day." ' The list includes three democratic presidents and six reoublicans presidents and no whig presidents but this is a republican administration. The surprise is in passing up the two Adams, Madison, Jackson, the two Harrisons, and a dozen others to honor a Hayes who did not have even a martvrdom to offset his mediocrity. The Oregon delegation has again been asleep at the switch, for while California got the Yosemite on a stamp as an advertisement, no effort was made to put Crater Lake, an eren greater natural wonder, on a stamp. If our postage stamps are to be used to commercialize our scenic assets as well as preserve the memory of political partisans, Crater Lake ought to by all means be utilized, even though Port land may prefer the Columbia highway or the ilt. Hood loop. Friend of the Salary Grab Walter M. Pierce's promises of tax reduction and econ omy in administration are in glaring contrast to his record in the state senate, where he voted for practically every salary grab and for nearly every appropriation bill. As a member of the legislature, Mr. Pierce voted for 61 measures raising the salaries of 185 county officers. He was absent or excused on a few of them although he now claims that county salaries, which he approved are too high and should be reduced. As a member of the 1919 session of the legislature, Mr. Pierce voted for 29 measures raising the salaries of county officials and was excused or absent when four others came up for consideration. He made no effort to prevent any salary increases from being enacted. Twelve of these bills were flat salary increases for every official in the counties affected, the others increased the pay of only a few. It was not onlji. salary increases that Mr. Pierce voted for, but other bills that contributed materially to increasing taxation. !. introduced more measures than any single legislator to increase taxation though few of them passed. He opposed the plan of paying for highways out of auto license and gasoline taxes and tried to finance the state high way system by direct taxation, which would have delayed the good roads program many years and have bankrupted the property owner. Mr. Pierce did succeed in putting across one direct tax for roads the miilage tax for market roads, wheih imposes a compulsory state tax of one mill upon every county whether it desires to build market roads by direct taxation or not, and in effect forces each county: to tax itself another mill, to share any part of the proceeds from the first mill levy. These roads could all have been financed as the state highways were, without mulcting the taxpayer. Mr. Pierce introduced many measures along non-partisan league and socialistic lines, to create new jobs for tax eaters by establishing boards and commissions (or regulat ing other peoples business. These would have still further increased taxation, while he voted against the only consoli dation bills introduced to cut taxation by merging present commissions. As a legislator, Mr. Pierce constantly sobbed for the over burdened tax-payer but omitted no chance to increase his burden. He did nothing constructive to reduce the cost of government or lessen taxation. If enacted into law, his many impractical measures would have muddled the situa tion much worse than it is. As Patrick Henry said, we know of no way to judge the future except by the past, and judging by his legislative record, Mr. Pierce will make a most extravagant governor advocating those socialistic ideas that tend to complicate administration, confiscate property and increase taxation without bettering government. HAT HAPPENED When Sheila Elliston Refused Love By ID AH McGLONE GIBSON Along State Street Travel broadens some people, while skinny as ever. oti.ers return as Some people usually pick out a nice soft spot when falling Dviore temptation. There is nothing so distressing as to find your home made wine turned to vinegar. Kewi of Walter Jones As I looked at Sheila, so pathet ically sweet, my desire for revenge on Susanne Jones got the better of me and I again made one of the numerous mistakes that I had been making all through Sheila "s troubles. I pat my hand in my pocket and drew out the handkerchief I had found on the pier and laid it in her lap. Before she touched it, she wrin kled op her nose at the scent that assailed her nostrils. "That is the perfume that Susanne Jones always uses." she said. "Where did you get this?" She picked up the bit of deli cate linen, but I noticed she held it far away from her as she un folded it. As the letters "S. J." came within her sight she dropped the handkerchief as though it had stung her, and repeated, as she looked at it through narrowed lids. ''Where did you find it, Kay?" "Out on the pier." "Then Susanne Jones Is here. Is that the reason you think of going home? " "Yea." "Was she was she alone?" "No." "Oh, Kay, surely you are not trying to tell me that Phil is with Susanne oyer here he would not do that. He really could not hu miliate me like that." The eyea that Sheila raised to mine were full ot pain as she hung upon my answer. "They were some distance away. Sheila, but I am almost sure it was Phil. Indeed, I recog nized him first. ' "Let's go home. Kay, right away. I can't stand it to remain where I know they are." Within the hour we were on our way home. I wired Tony Soper to meet us and take us home. I was sorry I had told Sheila. She took It so hard. She seemed to be in a date all the time we traveled home. She sat bolt upright in the drawing room and I do not think she spoke three times. She just sat there twisting her rings about her fingers. As she did this I noticed how thin she was growing. There were srreat bluish-black circles under her eyes, those eyes which were now so often dimmed by that peculiar gray of which I have spoken and which fascinates me anew whenever I see it. "Phil, you have many sins for which to answer," I said under my breath as. I closed my eyea and pretended that I was asleep. I do not think, however, that I fooled Sheila at all, or rather I do not think she was paying the slight est attention to me. She was too engrossed In her own painful thoughts. Once or twice I begged her to lie down on the divan, but even then she hardly heard. Thus we went back Into town. Tony Soper met us at the station. I could see that he was shocked at Sheila's appearance. "I have good news for you," was his first exclamation. "I think I can locate Walter Jones I have found a man who knows another man who has been chum ming with him. This man volun teered to find Walter for me." Sheila hardly acted as though she had heard. Touy looked at me and shook his head. He could not make out what had come over Sheila. 1 triod to make him understand j that I would tell him ail about it ' soon. Suddenly Sheila started forward eagerly and laid her hand Impul sively oa Tony's arm. When we arrived home at the Shore she went directly to her room. It may be better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at ail, but it isn't so cheap. No man was ever satisfied with the size f his bankroll and no woman with the color of her hair. The vocabulary of the average woman is said to con.Jfct tf only 50 words, and he uses every one of them.

I tried to tell Tony what had hap pened. "Susanne is making the mis take of her life," he commented "She Is playing a losing game any way you put it. If Spencer is in love with her, which I do not be lieve, he will hate the scandal that Susanne will have involved him in. The scandal will break before the matter reaches a point where Sheila will divorce Phil. Of course Phil can't marry Susanne till Sheila frees him and the scandal will kill all desire he may ever have bad to marry Susanne. Susanne didn't use her brain in thinking the situation through. She's doomed to fail," affirmed shrewd Tony. Then he added: "If she fails she will have to re turn to Europe, for no decent people will have anything to do with her here. "It will only be a mtter of a few dajs anyway before the thing is cleared up,' said Tony, en couragingly. Alas, he did not know what was going to happen in these few days. The neit morning I had my break fast served in my room and when my tray was brought In Marie handed me a note from Sheila. (Tomorrow A Startling Note.)
