It has n moral. Also, It is true. The other day C. S. Hudson of tho First National Rank was told that hogs In tho Powell Rutto country werb suffering front some unknown disease. The matter seemed critical; the porkers were dying, and their owners dU not know what to do. So Mr. Hudson sent the following ..toHh gram to Uu Orogon-Waahlngtfon Railroad & Navigation Co. In Port land: "Farmers In Powoll Rutte ills trict, which Is largely devoted to hog raising, have disease among hogs. Must have assistance quick. Desire. advleo of Farmer Smith. Can you sond him to Rend at once? Will fur nish transportation and pay his ex penses if you desire." Promptly canio back word from tho O.-W. company that Farmer Smith would be here at once and thnt the railroad Is delighted to send him on just such missions. And wo have not tho slightest doubt that he will know exactly what to prescribe after he has felt the pulses of tho patients, taken their temperatures and looked at their tongues; for thoscwho know him know that Farmer Smith comes pretty near knowing his business. which Is farming with scientific meth ods but without frills. Well here comes the moral. Do you recall the shocking talcs we used to read and hear, not so long ago, about cold-blooded corporations such as bloodsucking banks and heartless railroads beating the poor unprotected farmer to a financial pulp? Why, half of tho real lurid "mellerdramers" of a decade ago had some such affair for their plot! Re member the railroads, nine of whose commandments were "The public be damned" and the tenth "Get their monoy?" And have you forgotten about the mortgage foreclosures and all the rest of It which seemingly lined up banks on one side of a battjc field and farmers on tho other? And right here in our little story of plain facts we stumble upon a beautiful example of The New Order. It Is a delightful Instance of the way such things have changed, A bank goes far out of Its way to lend' aid to farmers and a railroad joins in the good constructive work. That Is the kind of banking and the kind of rail roading that builds couiitrloa and communities. Incidentally, It pays dividends to the farmers, too. to tho principle but to tho mothod employed." Wo nro sorry for Mr. McMnhan If In his pursuit of light, nnd justtco ho has Iwen badly treated, Rut wo fall to sea a glimmer of logic or fairness In venting his splto In the way ho has attempted, Why should the de velopment of tho ntiuo bo halted, nnd why should deserving Bottlers bo In jured, because n man entertains n grudge ngntust those In power? It Is well to snfegunrd tho Interests of the pcopto nt large, but vicious ob struction nnd striving for sane econ omy nre vastly different things. A few children actually msy know what the Fourth of July stands for. Some of them perhaps roallxo what nil the celebration Is about. Rut It Is fair to say that a great majority have long sine1 ceased to remember much concerning the day other than thnt It Is an occasion for prodigal ex penditure of powder nnd the creation of all the deafening noise possible. And Incidentally, the "glorious fourth," celebrated along these lines, hns ronped a horrlblo harvest of life nnd limb, until n few yonrs ai;o tho movement for n "sane fourth" gained national headway. Fortunately that wise reform hns come to Horn! too; flrccrnckers nro notable for their absence, and, ns a result, our child ren have not suffcrel. Which Is as It should be. And let us hope- that for any who retain regrets for tho old ordor of things tho famous "I.lfo" cartoon, reproduced on this pago, will hold a needed lesson. ---' .....- i LEST NAE FORGET M'MAIIAX'S POSITION. The letter of L. II. McMahan re garding the Tuinalo project, printed elsowheie In this paper, seems to throw some light upon tho mental at titude of the man who has stepped In and, temporarily at least, blocked the state In a big constructive work. That Its author Is a crank Is a not unnatural conclusion of one who roads its record of graft-stalking- just as It is apparent that he takes supremo delight In enjoining what ever he bumps up against, Mr, McMahan may be sincere; ho actually uiay be a reformer of merit. Rut, Judging from a: communica tion, his chief reason for attacking the Tumalo appropriation Is because ho is hostile to state officials and takes thjB,chanai to "get even" for past grhmnaiw" In siufakms of the projeqt he sys 'l am not opposed Jl'IKJK SAYS PAY IT (JIT.

If, however, tho tax lovy of the general fund was high enough to pay these as they beenmo due, then 1 am of tho opinion that they could use that money In paying any warrants, and when the Injunction Is dissolved, pay the $55,000 out of any money In the treasury not othcrwlso appropriated, and If you did not hive the monoy at that tlmo then tho warrants would draw Interest, ami a tax would hnvo to he levied anil nn ' . .. . . ....
