The working out of details in connection with the consolidation of the Port land Commercial Club and the Cham ber of Commerce i.s progressing rap idly and smoothly and within a very short time all the varied, and fre quently duplicated, activities of these two important bodies will be welded into one harmonious and effective unit. I'nder the direction of the new organization the work of develop ment of the state and its resources will receive more consideration than ever before. The budget commit tee is unanimous in the opinion that greater efforts should be made in tin future to assist established indus tries in all the communities of the state and that it is up to Portland to live up to the record already made in this line and to make great addi tions to the work already outlined. The entire strength of the organi zation will be united in a comprehen sive program for the development of Oregon; to help farmers to profit ably market their produce; to finance the small farmer who finds himself unable to secure a suitable location; to welcome the new settler and help him to select and establish a new hornet to take care of the great num ber of travelers expected to visit the state during the present year and to effectively apply the knowledge gain ed during the past ten years to meet ing the present and future require ments of the business interests of the whole state. Ground has been broken for the construction of the great inter state bridge which is to connect the citv of Portland with Vancouver, Washington, and which will be an im portant link in the Pacific Highway, one of the most remarkable thor oughfares in the United States. As far as possible all contracts for the work have been let to local firms and preferance will be given to locally produced materials and to local labor. Necessary funds are availa ble for driving the work to an early completion. The fashion seems to be' increasing with a certain class of human brutes to kill women who refuse to marry them and then to kill themselves. It is generally the rule to say that such men are temporarily insane and to give them funerals to which the morbid Hock and send flowers. Our belief is that such a course is a decided mistake, that the body of such a creature should be secretly buried at night and those who do the work be sworn never to reveal the place for there is a vast amount of method in thut order of madness. If the history of a murderer of that kind is run down, it will be found that all his life he had been supreme ly selfish, impatient of any restraint, undisciplined, naturally envious and jealous and at the same time insuf ferably vain. When such a creature is attracted toward a woman, he never thinks of her happiness or what is due her; lather he pursues only his own sor did and selfish desires, and when bat tled he is at first filled with self pity and this is followed by his vanity and self esteem prompting him to make a dramatic display. If such an one knew' in advance that if he did what lie was meditat ing to do he would go to an unknown and unmarked grave followed only by the contempt of all who heard his name, in nine cases out of ten he would not be crazy enough to carry out his purpose.

The county court of Crook cotoniy has made a liberal appropriation of funds to be used on the Lincoln Highway between Bend and La Pine, via Lava Butte. It is intended , to make this one of the best roads in the whole state. A campaign has been launched at Eugene to raise $150,000 for the establishment of a lace factory at that point. It is said the Pacific Coast pays out $500,000 to $700,000 annually for lace and it is believed that a local factory could secure the bulk of that business. Have you a KEWPIE in your home?

As the aeroplane is built to-day, it has only two uses in war that are really material, or likely to influence the general course of a campaign Those are as scout and director of artillery fire. Upon occasion, of course, it is used as a real offensive weapon; from it aviators drop b.imbs and tiny steel arrows upon the enemy or make swift dashes into the hostile territory, and there bombard an air ship shed, and destroy or disable the lurking monster within it. Occas ionally, one of these aeroplanes may meet a slower-flying craft and put it out of action, or swooping down upon the enemy, it may stampede their horses, but these services are inci dental to its chief work. It is when the scouting airman, flying ahead of an army, are able to warn its com mander of some impending attack that threatens to overwhelm him, that they render a service that may alter the fortunes of a battle, or even change the whole course of a great campaign.

Withycombe has signed the prohibition law passed by the legis lature, but it seems probable it will be taken before the people in Novem ber at a referendum election. Here is a clear abuse of this device for nnnnliir envernment. The people have spoken in unmistakable voice in favor of prohibition. The question of general policy is settled, beyond the power of legislature to alter. In accord with the mandate of the peo nlp the legislature has endeavored to draft a law which shall define the terms and conditions of the enforce ment of the law. Prnnerlv used, the initiative and refprpnriiim should be emuloved to fflln the nnnular exDression on ciues- tions of general policy. The elector ate of the state at large is noi me hnHv hefore which to submit a meas ure treating merely with administra tive details. That can be considered unrl pflinstpii far better bv a smaller body, acting with delegated author ity. If the law this body enacts nmvps rtpflnipnt in Rnv resieot. that - same body should be best able to cor rect its faults. in another resDect the prospective referendum of the law has created widespread resentment. For years tiio nponle of Oreeon. as of every oth er state and of many foreign nations, havp hpen pnoearovliiK to rid uiem- ooivoa nf the evilH of the excessive use of alcoholic drink. Every move they have made lias been met Dy snme praftv. underhanded scheme to defeat their purpose. The men who profit by the business have failed ut- torlv tn pvasn the situation. Instead of seeking to eliminate the admitted evils of the business, they have ami flit to nernetuate those evils by tricking the homeiovers' of the com- mnnitv. So now. it is felt that a ret premium will have its origin in an attempt at sharp practice in the hope that the evil business may continue a Httle loneer. However, Oregon will have to be dry after the first of next year, wnat oi.pr ho thf fate of the oresent law. The constitutional amendment can and will be enforced with the assisi onno nf court decisions, even if the law should be defeated. The chances are, however, that the law will be iiwinrscH hv a maioritv even greater that that given the amendment. It is the duty of everyone interested in making and keeping Oregon dry, to prepare now or a possible fall cam ni;rn so that, a vote that shall leave no doubt in the mind of any trickster shall be recorded at the polls. En terprise Record-t uiettan. TSI .' I LATIO.V NEEDED. The recent failure of three mutual fire insurance companies in Oregon jimws the need of more stringent in ver.tigation and regulation of the (ire it'i'.iirniice business and more care on the part of policyholders in buying insurance. For two years these com panies had been paying in losset (more than they had been receiving in premiums while making public state ments that their affairs were in good shane. An investigation by the new Insurance Commissioner brought about a receivership. Ti;e future of these companies would not be so serious a mater if policyholders were no compelled to dig down In their pockets to make up the deficit. Those ahle to oav the assessment will hr compelled to do so. Those against whom a judgment means nothing win have had cheap insurance at the ex pense ' of the other fellow. Those against whom a judgment is collecti ble will probably find that their in surance has cost them as much as if it had been taken in a company with a safe reserve fund while they have been encouraging unfair competition with safe business. The Sentinel has no fault to find with the principles of mutual insur ance but it does believe in a square deal to those companies (mutual or otherwise) that are amply protecting policyholders, and believes that pur chasers should take a care that they are not fooled as policyholders in these three defunct companies were fooled.
