After all. what 1 it that Oregon

Another item of tb public debt
Is the soldier bonus bond Issue
th bulk of which is secured by
first mortgage on property owned
by ex-oerric men. When those
mortgages are paid, tb bonds will
b retired. Doe anyone want to
take away from tbo ex-eerrlc men

the men ar going to default, in
any constderabl number, on their
obligations T
It is true hat taxes la Oregon
ar high, although they ar no
higher than th general average
throughout th country taxes are
high everywhere. But In th main,
the expenditure that maks taxes
high were for roads and schools
and other things that the pubUe
wants and would not do without.
And while Oregon baa been spend
ing money for these things every
other state ha been doing like
wise).
Bo why wall and weep and pro
rllam to the whole sride world that
Oregon Is busted? It Isn't true.
Ws have the roads, and they ar
worth what they cost. Th soldiers
bars been aided, and with very,
very few exceptions they will pay
back the money th stats has
loaned them. We hare the schools,
and no one In hi senses would do
without them. Oregon Is solvent
and Is a going concern. Let's quit
telling the world it Isn't.
WHAT TIME?
Daylight-saving In some Amer
ican communities Is held to be su
preme wisdom, and In others, fool
ishness. In Connecticut, It came
very near being a crime. A bill
that passed the lower house would
have provided a fine and Imprison
ment for any cltlxen daring to set
his clock or watch by other than
Connecticut time. The Idea was,
evidently, that the sun rises and
sets In Connecticut, and It was
therefor Intolerable presumption
and Interference to import th Im
pious sun-saving aystem ot the
wicked metropolis next door.
This question of what time to
keep la tb good old summer time
la getting to bo ssrlous. During
til war, for a llttl while, thsr waa
a fair deg-ree of uniformity In favor
ot turning tha clocks ahead In the
daylight month. I-attorly then la

Tho conquest of time and spare
through three-quartors of a cen

fornia pony express and In trans

which ar scheduled to finish at
a mammoth pageant In Ran Fran

September 10.
This announcement waa made
here recently by the 'n Fran
cisco delegation to a conference
of representative from mr.-en
western states in Denver, called to
organize and plan for a relay rut"
between St. Joseph. Mo., and San
Francisco, over the routa of the
original pony express.
Revival of tho pioneer spirit In
th west through th medlu of
th pony exprei was th object
of the Denver conference. The
original plan waa confined to in
stituting aa an annual event a
000-mtle nony express rare, but
according to Sidney Prlxotto, San
Francisco, one of the sponsors or
the project. It Is probable that
this plan will be elaborated to In
clude' an exposition In this city on
tho evolution of transportation,
the exposition to open with the
arrival of the various relay
"teams'1 and continue for a fort
night. 'The dtfrerenl means of
transportation will be so spaced,
according to their aomparative
apeed, that tha finish ot all ths
races wUI be In San Francisco on
the same day.
According to the schedule sr-
ranred the first of th ponies and
tha riders will leave St. Joasph.
Mo., probably on August it. In
pioneer day the route covered by
the rider ended in iMcrmemo.
and from that city the mall was
brought to San Francisco by Sac
ramento river Doat. in tne re
viva!, however, a new relay will
atari at Sacramento and follow
course leading through ths historic
country of the Mother lxxie into
