SUBLIMATED AUDASITY
One of the clearest caat of pri
med tated. aubliinated audacity which
hi been unfurl-d before our e
in -v,-nl month of Sundays, la Uiat
exhibited by tho coterie of pre as
ent of the 8ell-Floto Show Co.,
whUb played at Salem last week.
Th's double-distilled hunk of nerve
wa brought to our attention through
a circular U tter received everal day
ago which r.'ad something like this:
You will f nd enclosed two locum i0r
publ cation in your nvxt issue and t'lej
one succeeding. If you will present,
the enclosed thkrt. together wlthj

of the show, we win giauiy ei-"

work of art; the lo ala are well writ
t,n .ftisions ex.wu.g u.e .

waste basket, from whence nothing

SUMMER DAYS
Summer days have come with all
thsir relaxing influences. The furil
finds it hard to give his thoughts
and time to study anl counts the mo
ments until s:hool closes. Then he
hies away to the swimming hole or
to the streams where fish abound;
and he can there realize more enjoy
ment in one day and get more fish
with a bended I in 'and a willow stick
than ail the sports from the city with
thair patent appliances.
And ths b;isines3 man who has been
ccnttnt through the long winter
months to toil faithfully behind the
count r or at fie i sk, also feels the
call of summertime and its associa
tions of leafy woods, sparkling bro;ks
and pure air. Ferbaps in a reminis
cent mood his mind goes back to boy
hood days on the farm, and the
temptation is strong to throw down
tha pen and obey the can to go back
th. land Dvor if it he hut. for a!
few weeks.
As the son's heat becomes more
intense, more the desire to take up
the fishing rod and the rude, simple
camp lifa in the woods, the moun
tains or on the coast increases. Ore
gon affords a great many opportuni
ties in this respect The exodus to
the several summar resorts has now
commenced, and by the time the seas
on is over there will be few who have
not enjoyed a vacation at one or the
other of these places.

Mcny politician and business men
who are accused of political corrup
tion would gH people ta mors read
believe tlnir protestation of inno-
cens? if they woull abstain from try
ing to tlxk investigation. To raise
technical objections and twist and
squirm to prevent inquiry 13 a poor
way tD convince people of their
blamelcssness.
It will be vsry mu.h like ' marching
to the top of the hill and marching
down again" if all that follows the
Supreme Court decision is a reorgan
ization of the Standard Oil Company.
FrobaUy most people think that the
head o:f;cials who were responsibly
for violating the law should be dealt
with elong the criminal lines, and wil
be disappointed if they are not.
The man who is negative In his
business is doomed a failure. Busi
ness needs men of conviction, cpur
age and progress. Men thus "en
dowed necessarily make some mis
takes and meet with some reverses,
but they learn by experience and re
cover themselves, and in the long
run thty win out.
Recently we read of a man in the
east who applied for membership in a
certain secret order, but was rejected
on account of having been a self-mad
man. Possibly rf some of those fel
lows who cast the rejecting black-ball
had been self-made men the order
wouli be better for it.
It is a good sign when influential
criminals, or criminals with influence
are treated like all other criminals.
It helps to confirm the belief that in
practice as well as in theory, the law
is no respector of person.
As yet there is no sign that the
decision against the Standard Oil Co
yaa uftacieA th eond standing of
CTohn D. Rockefeller's church mem
bershlp. Neither is there Indications
of a lowering of the price of oil.
This is the time of year when men
will go across lawns and corners of
streets to save a moment of time,
ind yet will sit for hours in the blaz
ing sun to watch a base ball game.
The world takes no stock in the
man who plunders his fellowmen six
days in the week and goes to church
(on Sunday to worship God.
