A beggar, ragged, dirtyill nnd thoroughly miser able, had been brought into the presence of the king. The monarch listened with sympathetic interest to the recital of his woes, t was a tale peculiarly harrowing, including as it did particulars ot the loss or great weulth, position and family. By the time the beggar had fin ished his recital tho king was in tears.' "Take him away." he sobbed, turning to his guards. "Tako him away and cut off his head; Tho little story is brought to mind when ono, reads about tno indignant protests being mauo by some jncw Yorkers and somo New York newspapers against tho recent demonstrations made, by a horde of down-and-outers led by "Mr. Zero," who took his un-prctty crew of ragamuffins into a .church for warmth and shelter. Naturally, the incident and attendant publicity brought a condition of human misery to the notice of a good many peoplo who do not como in contact with such things in their daily life. Peoplo of this class were shocked and pained, all of them. Some few took steps to extend help in one way or another to tho destitute. ' Others called upon the authorities to provido a remedy. Still others denounced the demonstration by "Mr. Zero" i and his ragamuffins as disgraceful. The New York . J Herald-Tribune's comment was that "'Mr. Zero' is in tho business of making misery theatrical." j Misery, one deduces in seeking to interpret the : 2Ierald-Tribu.no and others like it, should always hide jits head. "Misery should never permit itself to become j vocal. However ill-deserved its misfortunes may be, ( misery, with its cross on its shoulders, should, lest the 'sight of it grieve tho rest of us, always keep to the 'remote by-ways. "Tako him away," sobbed the king, "and cut off Jus head; I cannot bear his grief." Lynchings Decrease. , Lynchings in tho United States are on the decrease. , This is for American humanity a hopeful sign. There is I much accusation of the present generation on many 'grounds. Numerous critics are earnestly of the opin ion that we as a peoplo are growing worse. Tho sta tistics on lynching tell a different story. Tho annual report on tho subject of lynchings for 1924, issued by tho Tuskcgeo institute, famous Alabama school for the training of colored young people, shows that only 16 persons woro lynched in tho entire United States during tho ycair, tho lowest number since the keeping of lynching records was begun. In l'J2:t there woro X! lynchings. In !)22 thero were 57. Thus 'a steady decrease has been shown in recent years. Of tho lynchings of 1924 fivo occurred in Florida, two in Georgia, one in Illinois, one in Kentucky, one in iJi'uimmm, i wu in jjj lSNISSippi, OllC in ,1U1SS0U1'1, 0110 111 South Carolina, one in Tcnnesseo and one in Texas. All ot .tuo persons lynched wero persons lynchod during tho year were accused of of fenses against women. Another hopeful i'cuturo of tho report' put out by . tho Tuskcgeo institute is the showing that 45 attempts' nt lynching wero frustrated through action by officers. Eight cases of this kind wero recorded in northern states and 37 in southern states. Altogether the report indicates an aroused public and official conscience, and is encouraging. The majority opinion of tho Oregon supremo court, in a case just decided, that thero is no right of search under tho prohibition law of tho person of citizens not under arrest except by authority of a lawful search warrant, siftms liko sound senso as well as good law. It is repugnant to tho American spirit of freedom and. fair play that citizens bo searched for liquor on mero sus picion. Any innocent citizen subjected to such an ordeal has just cause for indignation. If nrohihitimi is in re tain its standing in the public esteem its enforcement must bo carried along lines of fairness and equity. Lin Ching-Lin, military governor of Chilili, gives the army commanders in the corps area whero a train has been robbed until next Monday to bring in tho rob bers. If they fail they nro themselves to undergo exe cution. The best guess ono can make from here is that tho robbers will bo brought in not later than Sunday night. Tho Oregon Statesman is out with a year-end edi tion of 40 pages, devoted to a very thorough and com petent exploitation of the resources, products and in dustries of tho Salem district in particular and the AVil lamctto valley in general. It is a credit to its publishers. , Mussolini, fascist premier of Italy, has suppressed the newspapers which have been printing truths not to his liking. If Mussolini will look up tho facts he will find that no government ever achieved permanency which sought to muzzle tho press. Jokcsmiths may as well forego the making of fur ther witticisms based on tho supposed stimulation of the marriago market by leap year. In 1924 we have had fewer marriages than in 192,'?. Optimistic thought for today: Only threo Fridays fall on the thirteenth of the month during 1925. COMMENT OF Dangers of Tolerance (Salem Statesman) A Chicago lecturer declares the curse of the times Is Intolerance. He is wrong. If snything we are too tol erant. There is mighty little toler ance in the world. We are swinring away to liberaliim lo rn extent thai is alarming ond the future is more apt to be tinctured with too much intolerance. There aro those w(io say. however, that every restraint found necessary to hold man to what Is Telephone 1200 JANUARY 3 I cannot bear his grief." negroes. Ten of tho 16 THE PRESS right Is intolerant. Certainly we can say that the liberalism of the present ago Is causing a swinging to lawless ness that It appalling. - founds Fishy., ( (Corvallit tiazette-Tiiues) A.

Hounds fishy. Since when have people with babies been allowed to use apartment houses? Progress at Saltm (Salem Statesman) Salem has one linen mill provided for, to commence running July first; with two or three more in prospect and many to follow. There are two or three beet sujar factories for Sa lem in the offing. There is a potato stBrch and dextrine specialty factory among the probabilities. There are many more industrial concerns whose backers are looking this way. We are going to hitch up the wheels of in dustry to' the raw products of our land, and build here the most pros perous city in the entire world. How large? It will be 50,000 before very long. It will not stop at 100,000. The flax and linen industries have made Itelfast a city of 550,000, and one of the soltdest cities in the world, and a greater Belfast Is possible here. We have all the natural advantuges of Belfast for manufacturing articles from flax und hemp, and we can pro duce the flax and hemp, and Belfast must import all but about 10 per cent of her raw muteriuls. Portland's Weather. (Albany Herald) When we compuro the relative ef fects of the cold snap and itB varying temperatures as shown by the official weather reportB of Albany and Port land, we are at a Iosb to account for the seeming discrepancies. Albany reported a minimum tem perature of 3 degrees below aero; whilo Portland's loweBt mark, as we remember it, was 13 degrees above zero. Yet at Portland the Willamette river froze over so that an automo bile bearing a number of men passed over it safely. At Albany the Willam etto river did not freeze entirely over. At Portland water pipes under neath the pavement froze and broke with much attendant inconvenience. At Albany the city's water pipes did not freeze. Far be it for us to cast anw insinu ation on the accuracy of the govern ment a weather observer at Purtlund But we confess we con't understand how it is that weather so much more moderate at Portland can be so much more freezing in Its effect at Portland thau a lower temperature at Albuny can affect Albany. Doubtless 'some allowance must be made for the variation of the rapidity of the current of the Willamette river and perhaps for different depths of tho two cities' water pipes but even then, wo arc from Missouri. Oregon Apples In Arkansas (Fayettoville, Ark., Democrat) It seems a curious thing that in Favcttevillc, the center of tho finest apple regiou in tho world, it is al most impossible to buy at retail the best grade of Washington county grown apples. Oregon apples on the other hand are at times plentiful in tho local morkcts. Somebody ought to look into this and find out where the trouble is. Asthe World Wags By FRANK FAY EDDY Rl'.n RUSSIA begins to be under standable through tho mark of clouds of propaganda issued by its friends und its enemies. LENINE Is sure ot bis lii'lic in the templo of fame, however infamous he may still be held by the politically or- llioilux minded. He was nothing less than a crusader for a great dream, whether mistaken or not. Ho held with mi iron will thousands of strong and discordant minded men nnd wo men to n single-minded purpose, nud bred Into them an austerity and spirit ot sacrifice not to be compared with anything less than tho simitar feat accomplished by Oliver Cromwell whom we now canonize for his mas tery of his stern "Ironsides."

By KATHERINE MOORE Author of "Love" KENT CLOSES THE DEAL Chapter Mi The next night Kent came to me beaming. "Victor Lnchman took that apart ment on Fifth Avenue, Babe," ho ex clajmed delightedly as I weut to meet him at tho front door. , "Oh, Kent, ,1'm so glad," I breath ed softly against his shoulder as ho hugged me up to him fervently. "Yes, ho wna very much pleased with it thought It just the thing, and it is a beauty, Bobs." "Better than ours, Kent?" 1 teas ed. "Well, I'm afraid just a little, but we'll be moving up or. Fifth Avenue ourselves some day, little wife," he promised. ''Wo couldn't be anj' happier, dear est, and that's wlmt counts." 1 re turned warmly with my arms about his neck. Kent was doing so well in busi ness nnd it had beeu a wonderful stimulus to his faith. I was so thankful. It seemed almost like the answer to i.ur determination to re trieve Kent's mistake. Kent showed plainly that ho was tremendously pleased and encouraged, but he never spoke directly uf its being the act of I'roYidcncc. Belief like that comes more slowly to a man. My faith made me look for tho answer, for some reason for it all, and 1 found it in the fact that Kent had risen above his mistake. "Did you have any difficulty get ting the apartmcut fur Mr. Lach loan?" 1 interrogated as we sat dowu to dinner. "Yes, thought I wasn't going to get it at first. You sea another Vgent nss handling it also, and he had a party I ling was on the point of mil Ing it." "Mow did you inansge to procure it fur the lcbninn'a dear?" I ques tioned Interestedly.

"Ho would wnnt to settle up, make it up to me in some' way. I'm only too glad to bo able to do something for him," he added warmly. I felt a little badly that Kent had been forced to take the apartment away from the other party that was negotiating for it. But I could not tell him so. After nil, iu this world, it was the survival of the fittest and especially so in business matters. I could not be too narrow minded and discourage Kent when he was so an xious to do a favor for Victor Lach nian. "t suppose we ought to Invite Mr. nnd Mrs. Lachmau and the Walkers hero some evening," I suggested. I waited to see how Kent would take it. "I suppose we really should." Kent responded slowly. "I have thought of it myself, but I'll confess I don't look forward lo it," he declared hon estly. "Maybe it won't be so very herd after all, dearest," I encouraged. 1 knew that Keut's conscience was still a little raw and vulnerable. Poor boy. 1 understood him so well and felt deeply for him. Yet I was hoping even his strained, awkward feeling for the Lachmans might be overcome. I knew he dreaded meeting Mrs. Lachman even more acutely than lie did Victor l achnian. I also knew it was simply because ictor Ijcuman I was a man. He had not mentioned j this to me, but I felt it instinctively, i It is so much easier for men io! square things with each other. They! seem to understand and sense each others goodness more readily.. Bui I had great hopes aud faith iu Kent, Tomorrow Kent Armour, Jr. I lows have been paid $160,000 for their work. It was worth It, to the parents. Tbey kept hangings out of the family record, so far as is known. The doctors got even more money than the lawyers, it's worth more to swear that a murderer is crazy than merely to tell the judge that the mur derer is innocent. Lord Robert Cecil an sble British er, working for the British empire, says the United States would inspire the League of Nations. It would do more important work then that. It would finance the league if this coun try were foolish enough to become a member. "Your money first, inspiration, as much ss you please, afterwards." would be the leaguo program.
