In the Interest of lower taxes, the
legislature has abolished the Oregon
State Immigration Commission and
, the ofiioe of State Immigration Agent,
'" the latter held ty O. 0. Chapman. As
neither the memtersof the commission
or Mr. Chapman reoelved any salaries

they did not oppose tbe repeal of the
law. The prinoipal part of tbe foods
whioh bare bitberto been need for
statewide farm organization baa been
aqbsorlbed by Portland business men
and while withdrawn, it Is oertain
that activities for the development of
tbe state will not be permitted to oease.
As wa understand It, tbe commission
as an organisation, bad tbe prestige
of tbe State behind It, while Individ
oals paid Mr. Obapman'i salary. Is
that it or not?
Senate Bill No. 80, introdooed by
Senator Wood, creates tbe new Board
of Fish and (Same Commissioners, pro
vides for oonnty deputy game wardens,
tbeir duties, eto. The bill leaves the
game and rJeb license moneys In tbe
fund for propagation and protection of
flsh and game as at present. A rad
ioal change In the issnanoa of lioenses,
however, is noted. Tbe bill makes it
compulsory for tbe taking oot of a li
cense for every oonnty to te bnnted or
flshed in by the applicant, whereas at
present one license is good for hunting
or fishing In all counties of tbe state.
It Is a question whether tbe oonnty
liuense system as proposed in the bill,
will meet with general approval.
Enropa may laugh at Amerloa as
tbe land of "dollar chasers," bnt that
this ooantry bas love for humanity in
its heart as well as love for tbe al
mighty dollar, la shown by tba way its
heart and pockets are open to tbe call
of the suffering in Emope, and its
millions poor forth to heal and to help,
Ihe time is fast coming when Unole

ENGLAND AS AN ISLAND.
Chinges a Channel Tunnel and Perfeot
Aviation Would Bring.
Great Britain is an Island. Unless
there is some great convulsion of na
ture to all time the strait of Dover will
separate it from tbe continent of Eu
rope. Yet every now and then a re
newal of tbe scheme for a channel
tunnel la beard, and at this moment
men are flying from England to
France and France to England.
Suppose the channel tunnel to be
made; suppose flying to be Improved
and It is improving every day what
will become of tbe Island? What will
become of the sea? They will be there
and will be shown on the map, bnt to
all human Intents and purposes the
geography will be changed. The sen
will no longer be a barrier; it will no
longer be the only highroad from Eng
land to France. There will be going to
and from on or In dry land and going
to and fro neither on land nor sea.
Suppose this science of aviation to
make great strides and heavy loads
to be carried in the air, what will be
come of tbe ports, and what will be
come of tbe seagoing peoples?
The ports will be there, appearing as
now on tbe mnp, but Birmingham
goods will be shipped at Birmingham
for foreign parts, and Lltbgow will ex
port mineral direct, saying goodby to
tbe Blue mountain and even to Syd
ney harbor. Sir Charles P. Lucas in

EAR DRUMS AND DROWNING.
Why Good Swimmers May Meet Sud
den Death In the Water.
Sudden death of swimmers baa nev
er been explained satisfactorily, but it
Is generally assumed that It Is due to
cramps that affect the respiratory mus
cles. The Medical Record says there
Is another theory that "has never re
ceived tbe attention which It merits."
This is that cold water penetrating the
ear sets up an irritation in the delicate
passages of tbe inner ear. It cites an
address delivered by Dr, Guettlcb be
fore tbe Berlin Otologlcal society, in
which ho revived this theory.
The Irritation of the labyrinth of tbe
inner ear by cold water might cause
sudden pnralysis, Just as a shock to It
through a sharp blow on tbe chin will
cause a "knocuout." The symptoms or
the swimmer and the fighter are sim
ilar. They, can make motions, but can
not direct them; they may become tem
porarily unconscious. In the case of
the swimmer, of course, drowning fol
lows unless some one helps him.
The Medical Itecord says that persons
with perforated ear drums are those
chiefly raennced by this accident, al
though It may occur to others. And
this in spite of the fact that children
with large perforations of the ear drum
often swim and dive with Impunity.
Senator Barrett's tax measure, in
tbe main, wonld be a great improve
ment over present conditions of paying
taxes, if It sbonld be pnt into the
statutes. The less complicated tbe
collection of taxis and the setting of
proper periods of tba year in whioh
puyments are to be made, as provided
in tbe Barrett bill, will greatly sim
plify tax oolleotlon aud add conven
ience to tax payment.
A really good bill, that for com
pelling lobbyists to register, passed
tbe Honse bnt met defeat in the Sen
ate. Qiukle In the Bouse, aud Barrett
aud Bnrgeis in tbe Senute, opposed
ths measnie. Tha bill in question
would have made it possible to tell
who a lobbyist was, and what he was
lobbying for.
The Periscope.
Permit mo to introduce myself to
the public generally. Modest and re
tiring both by nature and occupation,
I have hitherto refrained from obtrud
ing myself upon the attention of the
multitude.
My name is Periscope. My principal
object In life is to rise to every neces
sary occasion. When this demands
my more or loss Immediate presence I
occupy myself by holding np the mir
ror, not to nature, but to tbo enemy.
Like an occasional Idea which renders
superfluous old systems of philosophy,
I have come to render superfluous an
entlro cycle of Inventions. I am the
innt triumph of mind over matter. I
reflect, and a thousand men go down
to their fate. Within the blue tone of
my horizon, subject to my ordera, flits
tho angel of death.
I am the naval eye that put tbe
untight In 'Dreadnought Life.
Denmark, Norway and Sweden have
formed an alliance to safeguard tbe
neutrality of those thiee countries
along wlilob tbe world war rages.
The combination makes a itroug guard

Fires In tha Philippines.
Tbe fighting of fires tn the dry sea
son Is a grave problem In the cities and
pueblos of the Philippine Islands.
House construction Is light, the roofs
being made from nlpn palm leaves, the
framework of bnmboo and the sides of
either nlpa or sawall a woven prod
not of certain species of bamboo. When
this material has been exposed contin
uously to the sun for several months
It becomes ns liiflnminnble as tinder.
Fires that break out In the nlpa dis
tricts always gain great headway be
fore nuy kind of an alarm enn be sent
In even where there Is a fire depart
ment. Fires In such districts spread
with great rapidity. In thickly popu
lated areas It Is not uncommon for a
lire to burn several hundred houses be
fore It Is stopped.

of such failure to cleanse tlielr hands

All degrees are to be obtained only
after years of stody and experience,
lo get a "D. of H., B., S H.," eto.,
is indeed a great task, beoaose it is
snob a long degree.
And yet by the constant study and
application of modern methods of
building it is possible to tell bow to
build rightly ; how to get tbe most
room and comfort for tbe least money.
Especially ia this true in homes,
where a number of modern step-saving
homes have been colleoted, as well as
barns, silos, bog-sheds, eto. beoause
it is just as possible to build a silo or a
bog-sbed or a barn rightly as It is to
arrange a borne conveniently.
The use of a little "TUM-A-LUM-BER"
