“Merchants of Mercy” is no fantastic name, but repre
sents a real desire to aid humanity. The merchants of
mercy are the proprietors of the “Superfluity Shops” of
the United States. The idea is simple but effective. To
raise money for the Red Cross in many cities and towns
are establishing “superfluity shops” where contributions
of anything salable are received and sold and the proceeds
used to carry on the work of the mercy under the lead of
the Red Cross. In England, Canada, Australia, New Zea
land and other, lands, as well as parts of our own country,
these shops have brought great sums to this organization
of Universal Mercy. Among the things that have been
contributed in such shops are vegetables, clothing, jewelry,
dishes, china, glassware, books, silverware, laces, furni
ture, shoes, embroidery, canned fruits and jellies, rubber
bpots, fresh fruit, postage stamps, pipes, salt, flour, rock
salt, baking powder, galvanized iron pipe, tobacco, flash
lights, ink, penis, underwear, and a thousand other strange
articles. These things are collected and offered for sale
in a store fitted up through contributions—with out a cent
of expense to the “Superfluity Shop”.
Every farnily has some salable articles it can contribute,
wane the “superfluity” contributions from a community
might aggregate a great sum when turned into cash. Of
course only articles of real worth are desired. Portland is
putting this plan into practice and will soon have its Sup
erfluity Shop open every day. In small towns like Aur
ora a modified plan could be put into operation to raise a
neat sum by holding a “Superfluity Sale” of contributed
goods on certain days monthly. The plan which has had
almost a world wide success ought to succeed here.
Shall we try it?

City Attorney Macy of Salem has pom ted out that
certain supreme court decisions have rendered all traffic
ordinances of Oregon cities null and void. He declares
that the new motor vehicle law which went into effect
August 1, 1917, provides that local authorities may limit
by ordinance, rule or regulation, HEREAFTER ADOPT
ED, the speed of vehicles within their respective corporate
limits. But it also specifically declares that all' such br-
dfiiances, rules and regulations now in force (before Aug
ust 1, 1917) are to be of no validity or effect. This being
true, the present Aurora ordinance limiting the speed of
motor vehicles to 15 miles per hour, is invalid and of fio
force until re-enacted by the city council. Hence the
speeders may “go to it” to their hearts content.
It has been reported that Ben F. West, now Marion
county assessor, will he- a candidate - for - the -Republican
nomination for state treasurer at the primary election next
Spring, Ben is ambitious and has developed into a, most
efficient officiahas well as a politican of no mean ability.
If he makes the racé, his ability and personal popularity
will carry him a long way toward a successful conclusion
of his campaign.
' His Biggest Failure.
*
John Jacob Astor was asked one day
what was the largest amount of money
lie had ever made In one transaction.
This he declined to answer, but said
that he would tell the largest sum that
he failed to make. With De Witt Clin
ton and GoUverneur Morris, he said, he
had planned to buy Louisiana from
France and to sell it to the United
States government, retaining the pub
lic domain and charging 2% per. cent
commission. They changed their minds,
and Mr. Astor said that he lost $30,000,-
000 by failing to go into the deal.
