The dry weather of the late summer seems to have encour aged the blight and wet prunes if packed together will serve to spread the damage. On the other hand a soaking shower would put an end to the fire menace now prevalent along this west coast.

That gallant war horse. “ Pat" Me- Arthur sniffs the battle from afar and report has it, trill enter the race for ;he ser.atorship. He has one good and strong recommendation which is that he has a mind o f his own and is not afraid to act and speak as his con science dictates. While a congress man he was ngh t on some notable occasions when being n gh t took real courage. The Secretary o f the Corvallis Chamber o f Commerce has been do.r.g a little investigation and has found that 21 families located in Corvallis this year because Corvallis has an auto camp and these particular fam il ies found the city attractive enough to stay longer. 3718 tounng cars registered at the camp during the season, an increase o f one third over last year. Forty one states and sev eral foreign countries were represent ed among the cars registered. You may not be aware o f it but this is Constitution week. W'e have had pumpkin pie week and sweet ap ple week ar.d huckleberry week, and now we have a week to investigate their effect upon the constitution.

The great war did not destroy much money. The contenders did not shoot gold or silver or green backs at one another. It did destroy some property but our natural re sources are still great. Minerals are plentiful A ll we have*to do is to d.g Right you are, and yet wrong, for our national traits are reflected in both instances. The time devoted to economic huckleberries ar.d pie in our national life is quite conspicuous. The Federal Constitution provides for representative government. We have grown suspicious o f our representa tives, and substitute for it popular government. It was originally pro vided that presidents should be chosen by representative electors and sena tors by representative legislators. The spirit and the law in these matters have been charged and we perform by direct action o f the people. W e are progressing so fast that popular ex pression is depended on for legislation rather than through representative legislators. The checks that our fathers devised and put in the consti tution to combat thoughtless and heedless action o f popular mpulse. are being lost sight of. It is about time that w « paused for a week to re flect on what economic pie is doing to the Federal Const, tutior.. Every mar. considers his own bus. ness the most important and economic 1 experts who are predicting dire things for Europe because of fiat money are thinking in a very natural way. b u t, it appears to us. are taking them - 1 selves altogether too seriously. They prophesy that the ruin of Europe »» imminent, that unstable money wrill paralyse business and return the peo ple o f Europe to agriculture, which entails excess o f population w hich ; must perish for lock o f self «upport But people who have been holding Let Us Print Your Sale Bills Men’s Dress S h oes......... $3.00 and up Men's High T o p s ..........From $7.50 up Men’s Rubber B oots, . $6.75 high tops Heavy, crack proof, short tops .... $5.50 Men’s Rubber Shoes...... $4.00 & $4.25 Men’s British Storm Rubbers.... $1.25 Boys' British Storm Rubbers....... $1.10 Ladies’ British Storm Rubbers ... $1.00 Boys' Heavy Tennis Shoes......... $2.00 Men’s Heavy Tennis Shoes........... $2.40 Ladies’ Heavy Tennis Shoes...... $1.15 Indies' House Slippers ...... 75c and up Children’s House Slippers ... 75c and up for them. We still have great forests and unbounded beds o f clay. There is plenty o f building stone in the »oil. Natural resources destroyed were but a small item compared with the world supply o f raw material. Food was wasted and destroyed but the earth yields many fold o f the seed planted and food supplies are soon restored. But it is not so easy to restore labor ers and the product o f labor. These commodities in large quantities were destroyed during the war. It «rill take time to replace them. I f some blight was destroying labor in Europe it would cause more concern than a blight on European currency. The trouble with the world is that the de- ir^nd for labor is more keen than the demand for food. Until the balance is adjusted there will be more or less dis tress for the producers o f food..
