Kellogg draws. The New York Sun was the sphere of Mr. Kellogg's professional career during 1886-1912, and for 13 years he was its financial editor. His opportunities for observation should have been good. Our national character seems to this observor to have changed much since 18S9. To him we seem to be less religious, less honest and less frugal than we were before that time. We also appear more emo tional, less given to reflection, much influenced by conservatism and re spect for governmental authority and social inheritances. The church, the press, the reading public, liter ature and the thearter have all alike undergone degeneration. Never in history has there been such appall ing attestation of the principle that the luxuries of one generation be come the necessities of the succeed ing generation as Mr. Kellogg imag ines that he has discerned in the United States during the past quar ter century. It the facts be as the quondam journalist believes, the portrait of the American people reveals some dismaying characteristics. But it is difficult to accept all or even most of his assertions at their face value. They are those of a New Yorker, and New York is not the best point of view In the United States for outlook upon the American people as a whole. There is something in the atmos phere of Manhattan that makes for cross-eyed and reversed vision. One of the Kellogg allegations may serve as a touchstone for the credibleness of others. It is that the character of the clergy has deterl orated, that the church has assum ed a materialistic aspect, that the people no longer believe the essential doctrines of Christianity and that the church has lost its hold upon their hearts. These are assertions of tremenduous sweep and require the strongest and amplest evidence to sustain them. But not a scintilla of evidence is -presented. On the other hand there is testimony against those statements. The growth of the membership of the church at least keeps abreast of the increase in the total population of the country. The Christian people of the United States now spend near ly twice as much on the work of their churches as they did in 1899. They invest $400,000,000 annually, and, though only a third of us, give $3 of every $4 that go to charities, educa tion, and the relief of emergencies It is extremely doubtful, to say the least, whether the 37,280,370 com- municants whom Dr. Carrall credited to the American church of 1913 have suffered any such decay of religious faith as Is imagined by Mr. Kellogg A GOOD YEAR TO VOTE NO, (Eugene Register) As the number of bills that are certain to be on the ballot this fall grows, the conviction is strengthen ed that this is going to be a good year to vote no. We are already overburdened with laws, and we need a little time to catch up. Oregon's principal need just now is a little more attention paid to the serious business of Industrial devel opment and a little less to expert mentation with new and untried leg islation. We have laws enough to last us for some time, and could dis pense with a few that we have much more profitably than we could adopt a fresh batch that we know nothing about. A good rule for the voter to fol low is to vote no when he is in doubt and a very large number of the meas ures that are to be submitted to a vote this year are of extremely doubt ful value and some of them are vic ious. C. P. Adams of Gallowav was a pleasant caller at this office on Mon day while in town. Mr. Adams is a homesteader of the Butter creek country and settled out there about nve years ago. He is making good in his line and expects to he at tim Morrow County Fair this fall with some of the finest specimens of Jer sey Reds and Chester White swine to be found anywhere in the county. He is a poultry enthusiast, also, and will have on display some fine nhlr-ir. ens and turkeys. He was unable to get to the fair last season but will make up for the disappointment ha suffered by bringing in a eood dis play this fall. Hay .producers in different Darts of the county are rushing the cutting of their second cron of alfalfa nr. account of the devastations of grass hoppers. On Butter creek and im and down Willow creek these nastM are doing a lot of damage, and they are also working overtime in some of the fields on the hills. Grain crops are far enouch alone in mnt localities, however, that little dam age will result as they are evidently confining their efforts to the greener grasses. We have noticed som fields of alfalfa that are belne wnrir. on which are beginning to present a very naked appearance and in a few miore days will be principally bare stalks and unfit to out.

STATE NEWS ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST Portland, Ore., July 14, (Special) In order to fully acquaint them selves with condition along the new Columbia Highway, five carloads of residents of Hood River county made the trip down the gorge on Thursday of last week. At Gordon Falls they were met by a delegation from Port land headed by County Commissioner Holman and after a picnic luncheon had been disposed of they were shown over the most scenic portion of the highway. After an afternoon spent In this inspection, Roy D. Smith of Hood River, one of the leaders in the movement for better roads, prophesied that the Hood River bond issue would carry 3 to 1. "This road project has never been put up to me in the right way be fore," said Mr. Smith, "I've come to the conclusion that good roads are money in our pockets far more in amount than their cost." Oregon merchants will be enter tained by the jobbers and manufac turers of Portland August 10-15 dur ing Buyers' Week when the buyers of merchandise and supplies from all over the Pacific Northwest will be gathered In Portland to make their annual purchases. Banquets, lunch eons, receptions, a smoker and auto mobile rides about the city are on the program. The underlying pur pose of Buyers' Week is to develop the buy-at-home spirit, not only as It applies to Portland but to every community of the Pacific Northwest. To arouse greater interest in their plans, the officials of the land show to be held in Portland next fall will offer a first prize of $200 and a sec ond prize of $75 for the best special exhibit by counties. By arrange ments with the state fair officials, exhibits from Douglas, Lane, Polk, Marion, Washington, Multnomah, Til lamook, Clackamas, Umatilla, Wasco, Wallowa, Wheeler and Morrow coun ties have already been arranged for. Within the last few days the Junc tion City cannery was formally op ened, the exercises being attended by not less than three hundred farmers with their families. The main can nery building is 100 x 200 feet, two stories high and cost about $6000. Next year an up-to-date fruit drier will be erected to care for the prune crop. , At La Grande it has been decided to build a new exhibit hall near the depot. The building wiU be of mod ern design and will be so located that its contents can readily be seen from all trains. It will include an office for the county agriculturist, who will have charge of the exhibit. What is regarded as the record re turn from one acre of cherries has been reported from Hood River where the grower received $1300 for the crop on one acre of Royal Annes. This was the net amount re ceived after all expenses of picking and marketing had been paid. In order to raise the money with which to instil a municipal lighting system, the city of Drain, Ore., has voted to sell $6000 worth of city bonds. As soon as the bonds are disposed of, the contract for the con struction will be let. LET US SMILE. The Perfect Woman. When Sam Jones was holding his meetings in Dallas, Texas, on one oc casion he said: "There's no such thing as a perfect man. Anybody present who has ever known a per fect man, stand up." Nobody stood up. "Those who have known a perfect woman, stand up." One demure little woman stood up. "Did you ever know an absolutely perfect woman?" asked Sam, some what amazed. "I didn't know her personally," replied the little' old woman, "but I have heard a great deal about her, She was my husband's first wife." Causes of Things.
