SCNDAV, AUGUST J.
IX THE DAY'S NEWS
rii presidential campaign of
J9I8 is hardly under way as yet.
tut this writer, for one. Is already
heartily tired ot certain phasos of
u One of them is the row between
l3r. Straton and Governor Smith.
The former recently asserted that
he latter Is the "deadliest foa of
moral progress In America today"
and was promptly challenged to
wrove it, which Is proper enough,
Those who make such charges
should b prepared to prove them.
But Smith, the challenger, says
Ji won't debate the charges any
where but In Dr. Straton's church,
where they were made, while Dr.
etraton. the challenged, replies that
he will debate them anywhere ex
cept in his own church. .So there
the matter rests. '
Tou have seen, doubtless, two
bantam roosters, their neck feath
ers all ruffed up, eyeing each other
and pretending to want to fight
Kelther, as a matter of fact, wishes
to fight Neither sees anything
jworth while to be gained by fight
ing. Each has been led Into his
belligerent attitude by a too hasty
emotion. Each would like to back
down and go about hia business if
lis could do it without loss of dig
nity.
If you have '.observed this -comedy
of the barnyards closely, you
have doubtless noted that sooner or
later one of the prancing bantams
pretends to see a large and juicy
worm off to one side and, dropping
bis quarrel, he dashes off and be
gins to scratch vigorously and call
to his harem to come and see what
lie has found. '
Our advice to both Straton and
Emlth is to hurry off and find a
jilce, fat worm.
Much stress is laid in these d.ivs
upon social and athletic prowess
in the colleges, and it can not be
denied that social and athletic
leadership is useful in later life to
those college graduates who are
fortunate enough to have establish
ed It.
But keep your eye on Orlando
Hollis and Elton Edge. Hi;h
scholastic achievement, such aa
theirs, is still the most Important
objective of college life. They will
never regret the efforts they have
put forth to win it .,
Governor I. L. Patterson lakes
the witness stand at the cross-state
railroad hearing in Portland and
disagrees actively with the gloomy
Mr. Shinn, who held the center of
the stage the day before. Oregon,
he says. Is all right, and needs
nothing but transportation oppor
tunities comparable to those ot her
near neighbors.
Good for Governor Ike! It has
been said that Oregon's worst han
dicap is her pessimists. It Is
pleasing to see that the governor
does not propose to be Included In
that list

So far. It appears, nothing has
been done toward bringing about
pn. official investigation of the re
cent Lane county law enforcement
squad scandal. It Is probably just
as well. About all that could be
brought out by such an investiga
tion would be a story fit for the
worst of the confessions magazines.
Whether any public good would
come from bringing out the full
details of a story whose broad out
lines have been told already Is cer
tainly open to question.
One important fact that has
come out of the whole affair Ls
that the Lane county law enforce
ment staff has been anything but
fflclent for a long time.
There has been bad blood on all
sides. There have been feuds and
vendettas. There have been
schemes to "show sorrebody up."
There has been anything but whole
hearted co-operation to the end
that the laws may be enforced and
wrongdoers punched.
An organization whose members
have no "esprit da corps," no co
operative spirit, no willingnea! to
help the other fellow, but o the
contrary have a desire to got the
other fellow In bad. Is certainly not
a very efficient organization.
In common fairness, It ought to ,
be said positively that Sheriff Tay
lor and District Attorney Medley
have been wholly free from Inten
tional shortcomings n the matter.
They are sincere and well-meaning
officials, and they are undoubtedly
as much shocked as anyone by the !
disclosure, that have been made.
But. wholly without malice, thla
must alBo be said: They are re-1
sponsible, as employers, for the !
maintenance of good fueling nnd a
spirit of co-operation anion iu
members of their ataffa vh,n men t0 RCl 011 lliey cnn wmin 1,10

Eugene, Ore., Aug. 11. To tlie
Editor t. To those who have been
pioneers - on the prairies of the
middle northwest, where it mfynt
a trip of from 'Jo to 30 miles with
horses and buggies (if you were
fortunate enough to have them)
to spend a holiday besldo a muddy
stream tvid enjoy the luxur of the
fthade of a few native trees whom
it was considered a real treat to
catch and "akin" a few eel-llkc cat
fish to eat to such, Oregon, with
its wonderful mountains, stream,
trees, fish and came seems like
little bit of heaven."
On a trip down the Columbia
river some time ago I had the
privilege of visiting with ono of
the owners of a largo salmon can
ning company. Ho said it was only
question of a short tlmo until
tlio salmon would become cxtlner
hero as they have on the eastern
coast If there was not better pro
tection for them during the upawn
Inff season from the selfish com
mercial fisher. Ono fish at the
wrong season meant the Hss jf
from 3000 to 7ooo, possibly, later.
The urge for the commercial
fishermen na with nniy snorts-
most of them. They do not see
ahead nnd refuse to rob their
grandchildren.
So it was with keen tntcrest that
I watched the salmon in the Mc
Keniie river pen at Mend rick's
biidsc last Suml.iy as they were
caught and held there on their way
back to their old home to spawn
and die.
it was an awe inspiring sight.
The crystal c!ear water surrounded
by tho mountains and deno foli
age of gigantic firs, hemlock,
birches and maples, broken by tho
clear white of the aerated water
as it passed over the riffles (which
is so necessary to tho salmon at
spanning time) tha evident In
tense agitation of -tlie salmon as
they threw themselves, four and
five at a time, clear'out of the wa
ter gave one the feeling that we
stood in the presence of ono of
the great biolocical mysteries of
the universe "The Surge of Infi
nite Life" that we were witneaa
ini? a "movie' In real life a trag
edy at Its close.
I noticed a large man who seem
ed to be In charge of the station
and after some hesitation I ven
tured to ask him a question, ex
pecting to bo cut short with an Im
patient reply at my stupidity. To
my surprise he seemed pleased that
I had cared enough to azii ques
tions. I learned many strange
things about the salmon and the
work of the men in charge of the
hatcheries. I bean to realize that
it required a big man mentally,
morally and physically, "to think
God'S thoughts after Him close
ly enongh to make salmon grow.
There can be no carelessness, In
difference or meanness. It re
quires infinite patience, constant
care and loving thought.
Finally I asked him if he thought
it pasrible to stem the tide and
save tho salmon front ' extinction.
He shook his head slowly and re
plied, "Its a losing game .jut It
need not be if everyone would only
cooperate and not be selfish." Here
he very kindly asked some boy?
not to throw stone at the fish and
remarked that that was about the
txventleih time he had mado the
request and explained that it
frightened tfie fish, they clashed
againrt the rocks hurting them
selves and causing them to die
prematurely, thus losing thousands
of fish to the Industry. He, too,
blamed the greed of tho commer
cial fisherman and mo.'-t fiportunipn
for catching too many and t tho
wrong time.
Ho said he often wondered If
there wero only two flh (salmon)
in the world and If they were
caught there could never be any
more, just how long those s:ilmon
would be allowed to live. Would
men. be able to resist the Impulse
to rat'-h them?
We are wore than the Indians
they only took enough for their
needs. We must have a good
story a well. Why can't we realize
that we nro stealing from our
selves and our posterity and every
one heroine fish wardens for the
protection of our wonderful sal
mon? -
We do not ncd new laws so
much ns an enlightened' public
conscience.

health service.
It was. found that the hither
mnto sickness rate dldv not hold
true for children under 10 years
of age. Doy babies and small boya
wero apparently more subject to
Infectious diseases and to diseases
of the eyes and ears, akin, to colds
and other respiratory conditions,
and to d.f.estlve troubles, than were
girls of the same age. But as aoon
as the adoleecent period of life be
gam the sickness rate of the stria
became higher than that of boya
and the female rate for practically
all dlesasea waa actually higher
than that of the males throughout
adult life. Women auffer mora
than men from sickness due to the
common types of respiratory dis
eases, to digestive and nervous dis
orders, and to diseases and condi
tions of the kidneys and heart.
This in spite of the fact that the
death rate among older women Is
lower than that of older men.
There wera some exceptions to
this general rule for persons over
10 years of age. Ona waa that the
frequency ot acctdenta waa great
er among males than among fe
males at every ago ot life. The
proverbial greater adventuresome
ncss of boys was shown by tha fact
that In tho age period 5 to 9 years
the frequency of accidents of all
kinds among boya was much great
er than that among girls of the
same age; but In adolescent ages,
the sex difference In this cause
diminished considerably, although
the accident rata ot girls never
exceeded that of boys.
The findings of this study cor
roborate the results of other stud
ies on adults at work, which have
been conducted by ' the public
health service Irr cooperation with
certain Industrial establishments,
and are In accordanco with the
records of absences among school
children due to sickness that have
been collected over a period of
years.
turn into calamitous depression
throttich the partial abandonment
of protection? Indeed, can the
farmer expect any relief whatever
along thta tine from Governor
Smith and his pirty?
No. tiovernor Smith's natural
sympathies, and the sympathies
of the urban-i-ontrolid Democratic
party, are not with tha producers
of food, but with tha conaumera of
food In tho lane eatrn cities. It
is a tenet of their faith to make
food.coat aa little aa poaslble. Doea
any farmer doubt this? Let him
consult tho agricultural schadiitoa
In tha Underwood tariff law, paas
ed by the lmocrat the Inst time
they had a chanc to do anything
for the farmer.-
Tho Democrats. t that time, put
cattle on the free list. They put
sheep and goats and hogs on the
free list, nnd meat and lard and
milk. They cut the butler dutlea
to tho point whcie they did not
even hinder a jwu'uping of tho
Amerlcun market by foreign dairy
product. The Dcncrata put eggs
on the free list, and corn and
wheat and rye an 1 raw wool, and a
lot of other things produced by tho
farmer.
Cheaper food wat tholr purpose,
and tney did not rata how many
farmers were ruined In th cheap
enlnjr. Save for the forced with
draws) of Europe from the food
producing busltUMi in 1914. neces
sitated by the World war's start
disaster would have overwhelmed
tho American countryside In the
first Wilson administration.
Cheaper food would again ba tha
goal of tho Democrats, If they were
restored to power In 19Z5. And
no political wlxnrdry can glv to
tho consumer cheaper food nnd at
the same time give to tha farmer
higher prices for hia crops.

much as any other man's dollar.
Agriculture ls on sound ground
there. However the East may feel
about It, nobody here In tho West
de.Mres to see the farmer laboring
unrttr any kind of a handicap
whatsoever.
Methods by which agriculture
may tcok this highly desirable c;.d
fall Into three main groups. They
are not alternative methods. They
may bo tried separately or simul
Thero Is the matter of cheapen
ing transportation costs through
development ot waterways, to make
th farmer's crop worth more at
the point of origin. Can waterway
development be better fostered by
Herbert Hoover, wTio knows the
waterway situation nnd fnvors the
Ht. Lawrence seaway? v Or by Al
fred K. Smith, whose acquaintance
with waterways' Is limited, snd
who firmly opposes the St, Law

There Is the matter of reducing
the spread between what the con
sumer pays and what the farmer
gets, through a moro economical
and moro scientific system of dis

Talks on Good Manners
By UK. CORNELIUS DriCKMAH
tallica First
Dear Mrs. Ilceckman:
My sweetheart and I. whilo walk
ing, met a very dear frlond of his
one whom wo both know very well.
This friend had another man with
him whom w. did not know. In
presenting us to this man, who
should bo tho first ono Introduced,
my sweetheart or myself? CELIA.
Tho new ecqualntiinc should
first be presented to you, since as
a woman, you should be given that
honor.
New Gallantry
Dear Mrs. lieecknuin:
Now that It has become "mod.
lsh" for wgmcn to wear rubber
shoes of all kinds and descriptions,
doesn't this raise a new question of
etiquette Should a man offer to
asslxt a woman when sho puts on
theso overshoes. U BADE 11.
A good "up-to-tho-mlniite" r,ues.
tlonl Yes, It Is, correct and polite
and gallant for the man to assist
the women when she la putting on
theso overshoes, just ns it was In
th. day when was It when we
wore rubbers. It is the fine old
question of a man's being of assis
tance nnd whon he can bo, tho an
swer Is always "yes."
Novelty Notes
Dear Mrs. Reeckman:
How should one answer sn In
vitation to bridge tea written on
novelty cards, stating briefly the
time, place and Jolnt-hostessea7
IN DOUBT.
The question of th. form of the
answer to novolty cards of any
kind Is a difficult ono nnd very
confusing. Thoy eccm to bo "nelth.
er fish, nor fowl, nor good red
herring." They soem not formal
and, on the other hand, their form
does not coincldo with our tdess of
Informality. But wo can, I think,
be on the I "er aide by regarding
them ns forms!, ns wo regard In
vitations wrlllen on visiting cards,
and' answor then formally In the
third person. This certainly can
not ha criticised, for, In this kind
of Invitation only the necessary de.
tails are given, the time, tho place
and the name ot the hostess or co
hostesses. And, In our formal ac
knowledgment, theso, too, are the
details we Include.
