' NO NEED FOR ATTORNEYS The secretary of the treasury has announced that neither the soldiers, ' sailors, nor their dependents or any beneficiaries under the soldier and Bailor Insurance law need employ at torneys or claim agents to collect the Insurance; that the employment of uch Intermediaries Is unnecessary and Inadvisable and a needless ex pense. ... The procedure for the . presenta tion and collection of Insurance claims Is very simple and the proper - blanks can be secured from the bureau of war-risk Insurance In Washington. The name of the per son In the service who was killed or , Injured and the relationship which he bore to the person making the claim should be given. If further In formation or assistance Is required by the claimant the bureau of war- risk insurance will gladly furnish It. Circulars have been sent out by claim agents and attorneys offering to assist ' persona entitled to the benefits of this insurance In collect t log their claims. The "pension barks" who once thrived and fat tened under our pension laws, 'are Btfll a rank memory In this country. It was hoped that when they were legislated out of existence we would neve see their like again. Official Bulletin.

Sales of thrift stamps and war savings stamps on that day throughout the country set a new high record, though it Is expected that the three million mark will be topped double or treble that amount before the campaign closes. Sales in Oregon now are crowding the $2, 000,000 mark. Placing Oregon's to tal April 1 at the $2,000,000 mark. though It will probably exceed that there will remain nine months In which the state must Invest about $15,000,000 In war savings stamps if the $17,000,000 quota Is to be at tained by January I,' 1919. It will require a little speeding up, but It will be done. ' ; PKESIDKXT YYIIJtOX nIGXS XKW RAILROAD HI IX Washington, Mar. 21.

Figures on the shipping output and tonnage losses ot Great Britain will be published regularly hereafter, It was announc ed in the house of commons today by Sir Erie Geddes. first lord or the admiralty, during the ' debate on the navy shipbuilding bill. It would not be In the national In terest, however, to give the tonnage of losses up to date, the first lord added. ' The amount of tonnage sunk In the last IS months waa six million, said Sir. Eric, instead of 9,500.000 as the Germana claim. The tota) allied and neutral ton nage la now 42.000,000, Sir Eric stated, the fact that it Is at this fig ure being largely due to the new construction by the United States and the seizure of German ships. The output of new tonnage, con tinued the first lord, was very low in 1915 and reached its lowest point In 1916.

A Cleveland tobacco dealer is hU thorlty for ttiu stbtetueut Unit stogies soon will be uo more. The wiir line knocked the stuffing out of them, or rather, It has tuken the stogies' stuff ing away to fill cigars of more aristo cratic: shape. Profit Is all but gone. Prices climb, but so also do the objee tion liicreuse ugulnst puylng the high er rate. Taken altogether, the chunces for the stogie are as slim lis Itself, snys the Toledo Wade. As virt saally all Cubans am roll clgiirs so was It once possllile . for miiny Americans Wldcs professional cignrniiikers to manufacture their .own smokes. Hospitable folk of the rural districts thought It the flue thing to' offer their guests cigars which hail been mndc in the bouse. The stogie was the lust of Its kind which could be suld to have an unprofessional ori gin, inuny thousands being rolled fy women nt their homes In periods of the day when household duties were light If now the- stogie Is to disappear, clgaraiaking In tills country will cease to hove even the slightest of the ama teur touch. This vunlshliig Is to be regretted, not simply because the stogie was a cheap smoke,. but also because It was picturesque. If fitted a certain type of Anierlcnn face. It went with long chins, long legs, bodies without super fluous flesh.' The man whose pocket were stuffed with stogies seemed to be armed against .lonesomeness and the power of anyone to "turn him down." Smokers of timid spirit never affected stogies. Sugar Prom Palms.'

GOVERNOR WITHYCQMBE .i , ; if the people of Oregon are ot the opinion that I have served them faithfully, 1 should be pleased to re ceive a vote of confidence at their hands.' The governor of the atate has the ar of th people. It is therefore In hi power to assist In creating and malntalulng a healthy public sentiment on the many subjects which nuke for community welfare. I have been mindful of this fact, have mingled with the people and have done all In my power to pro mote the development of the state, to bring about the construction of good roads, to emphasise the- Im portune of education and especially to maintain at white heat the de votion of the people to th great cause of liberty and democracy for whl.h the country la Ruining. If re-elerted I shall coin I nil to do everything I can to accomplish these end. Oregon ha given twenty thous and of her sons to the great world war.

No sue- rlflce Is too great If it looks to the triumph of the forces battling for International righteousness. I shall stand In the future a In the past, for rigid law enforcement and. a cleaner and greater Oregon. Oregon is firmly committed to the principles of prohibition and equal suffrage and, while they are no Ion ger Issues In this state, I shall con tlnue to give these causes my full support. . Every legitimate phase of state development should be supported, but at this time when our coin try Is engaged In the most terrible war in the world's history the moat rigid economy In state expenditure should be observed. v We have state problems of great magnitude to be worked v out--for the Increase of desirable population; Tltt.t.tlA tAUTC I UUM1 1 T 17f l4 v& IUU Should Use TPS different from I other because more csre la taken in the making- and the materials used are oP higher grade.
