Miracles in Money
A city skyscraper seems a miracle in
steel and stone. But it is only a vast
number of girders painstakingly pieced
together a vast quantity of bricks
placed end to end and one above another.
Miracles in money are seeming miracles
only. You can work miracles in your
own life.
Saving Wins Success
You can have a big prosperous f jrm,
own a car, or travel wherever you wish.
Men who have really suc
ceeded spell it S-A-VE. You
can win the same success.
You do not need a lot ot
money to do it You need
no great education.

Meditations
The wheat harvest is on and it is
hard for an able bodied man to
find an excuse for not being busy.
The busy bee finds it rather dry
picking, seeking a living at this
season of the year.
for county courU, circuit Judges
who would decide where roads
shculd 1 built. We gravely douM
f the supreme court, having abol
ished the dictation of county
cr.irts, would hold tr commission
subject to the dictation of circuit
judges in laying out the highways
of the state.
Just what constitutes a living
i'ge is a live question just now.
Shoe workmen in an eastern city
recently requested an advance of
$18 per week. This little increase
hich seems so trivial now as to
become a margin in a wage dis
pute was at one time a pretty fair
total for the payment for a weeks'
labor. With den.and taking all
that production car. offer each call
ing is setting! its own limits and
nothing is ) exorbitint but that
plausible reasons of overhead, costs
and future ur.ceitamties can be
brought forward to justify it. The
law of compensation Is a two-edged
(fair however, and deals with neg
atives as well as affirmative.
A reputation for rapacity made
now in the time of people's neces
sity will react in the day when a
larger choice of service is offered.
If the quakes continue they will
have to build houses in LosAngeles
of India rubber for special places
of refuge for the timid.
The speed and ability with which
ths Pendelton escaped prisoners
were rounded up and caught should
have a salutary effect in discourag
ing future outbreaks.
Besides the things which the sad
waves say the editors who assemble
soon at Astoria are planning to say
a few things themselves.
The remarks which Judge Staple-
t)n remarked to Attorney Kaste
ought to have jarred the tatter's
Teutonic complacency, if such a
thing were possible.
We wonder if Americans are
good enough sports that they would
have bought tea of a triumphant
Lipton as they will of a vanquished
Lipton.
Our Dallas contemporaries- ap
pear to be quite net up over
highway developments. . It is to be
noted that it is always the man who
realizes he has the weak side of the
argument who resorts to ',loud and
abusive language.
They say highways are bad for
the communities they tap as where
they prevail everybody gets in ev
erybody s car and goes to the oig
towns to do trading. It surely is
surprising how cities long to com
mit commercial suicide in this man
ner.

The prospect is the election this
fall will hinge on a choice in the
personality of the candidates and
associations with the parties mass

principles advocated by the two

That sentiment in the sta'e at
lfrge is with the highway commis
sion in its plan for building the
state roads on a systematic plan is
evident to 'everyone who has taken
the trouble to investigate. There
is also reason to be hopeful where
the supreme court is concerned,
for the court in its decisions has
shown a disposition to look at the
welfare of the state broadly and
not stop at technicalities. Two
opinions have been had of the road
situation in Polk county, one by
Attorney General Brown and the
other by Judge McCourt. Both
were based on technicalities as to
just what action by the commission
would satisfy the letter of the law
Judge Stapleton, it is evident,
might have come to a still different
conclusion. In the Riddle case the
court ruled the commission must
not be hampered by conflict with
the opinions of county courts.
