The Portland Dally Journal, so called Independent newspaper, waxes sarcastic in a recent article in an at tempt to "bawl out" the various re publican newspapers over the state who Rave their support to Chas. B. Moores lor Secretary of State. So anxious is that sheet to show up Governor Withycombe as a political boss who has some 43 of the republi can newspapers at his command night and day, as the Journal has it pictur ed, that Portland's' yellow sheet over looks the tact that it is barely possi ble some of these papers at least sup ported Mr. Moores of their own free will and initiative. Can it be that the Journal would believe every other pa per in the state to be guided by the same sordid motivs by which the Journal itself is guided. Why is the Journal so interested in Mr. Olcott? It always lines up with the Democrats when there is an issue affecting the two parties. counters? Is her face roused and powdered with the freedom of the brazen dem imonde? Is she dining, drinking and danc ing with the giddy midnight throng in an atmosphere of excitement? Is she Joy-riding on Sundays ai'd neglecting the church of her father and mother? Is the pursuit of pleasure, frlvo! ty and fashion the consuming passion of her heart ? Is she going the pace in a restless desire to shine in the blazing lights of the cabaret and to be known as one of the fast set? Is she walking the pirmrose path of dalliance with no thought of the journey's dreadful end? Are her companions lifting her up or dragging her down? Is she seeking the love of one true man or basking in the sunshine of i many without manhood? I Is modesty a mockery, the prayer ' book and Bible relics of the past and mother's advice the played out -slum of the antiquated? Is she no longer the comfort of those at home, the confiding-delight of her mother and pride- of the fam ily circle? If this is your daughter, are you proud of her? Look at her latest photograph.

Is she following the fashions set by the undressed chorus girl of the stage? Is she bedecked in flimsy garments meant to display the contour of a shapely figure? Is her walking dress cut so low that one would think she was on the way to the opera and so high that the color of her stockings is discern able? Are her fingers, neck and arms covered with gaudy jewels, cheaply imitated on the five and ten cent NATIONAL RURAL CREDIT SYSTEM. The passage of a rural credit bill by the Senate, with an overwhelming vote, means that a system will be es tablished by this Congress, if the leaders are in earnest. The Senate bill could be put through the House under a special rule, at any time. There were so many amendments ac cepted in the committee of the whole as to make it hazardous to comment on the bill until it is read in its re vised form, but its salient provisions insure that the bonds based on long term farm mortgages will be regard ed as gilt-edged securities at home and abroad. The capital, surplus and undivided profits of the land banks will be exempted from all taxation, federal, state and municipal. It is likely that all the capital will be fur nished by the treasury. There will be such strict federal supervision as to title and appraisment of land as to insure confidence and the securities are treated in such a manner as prac tically to place the credit of the na tion behind them. Whatever crit icism the bill may provoke will be directed at its paternalistic features. Nobody will question the marketabil ity of the securities. If the bill becomes a law, it wfll cause Mlssourtans who have favored an independent rural system under state control to hesitate. A state sys -: tern, competing with a national, ; standardized system, familiar to all investors, would be at a tremendous disadvantage. It would be necessary :to employ agents to convince Invest- ors that the Missouri securities were as good as those issued under na tional supervision. This would be very expensive. The Missouri state bank would not be exempt from tax ation. A few crop failures in Mis souri might cause general default in Interest, whereas, under a national system, such danger would be ire mote.f or there is never a general crop failure throughout the country. If the Senate bill has been as care fully drawn as its friends say, there will be no necessity for much expense in selling the bonds. It will not be necessary to send out agents to "boost" securities, any more than it is necessary to employ agents to con vince investors how good government bonds are. This means that the rate of interest will be much lower than if the maintenance of sales agents were necessary. No state system can suc cessfully compete with a federal sys tem in this respect.

The Jonah's gourd growth of Gaston, Wigmore & Williams, in corporated, if the facts be as Mr. Forbes reports them, make the tale cf the supreme romance In American business, the mercantile epic of the war. ' , ' Mr. Forbes credits the achievement to foresight, imagination and pre paredness for opportunity when the time came. Mr. Gaston phrases It as "hard work plus patience." The Spokesman-Review sees a revelation of luck and pluck in partnership. Transportation is Mr. Gaston's hob by. He holds that taking the thing needed to the person or place needing the article is the secret of success for big business. The war seemed to him to open the door to practice of his theories. He persuaded Messrs. Wig more and Williams, the second a fi nancier on Long Island, the first for merly a successful realty dealer at Cleveland, to Join forces with him. Three days after incorporating themselves Mr. Gaston went to Eu rope for orders from the belllgeranU, and got them. His methods and re sults were those of Mark Hanna win ning votes for McKlnley In 1896. Mr. Forbes declares that his feats in get ting automobiles across the Atlantic to England astounded the British military authorities, became the talk of the entente and led to superhuman service to the Russian government. Meanwhile James Wigmore and Wil liam Williams were working 24 hours a day in the United States and daily performing impossibilities. The work of the firm is that of brokers between European governments and American businessmen. , The driving power of each of these men appears to be really remarkable. They also from the time they began life have hated to work for others, and have almost from the first been their own masters, employers instead of employes.' They seem to have a faculty of Inspiring enthusiasm, Init iative and loyalty in all their work ers. They gather the best of brains for their service. Mr. Forbes believes that the firm is not a bubble. It was built to continue in days of peace. Spokane Spokesman-Review.

Estimates of the number killed In the European war run all the way from four millions to eight millions. The former number would affect the European death rate to a degree which must be considered slight when it is remembered that for twenty-four months Europe has ben devoting a great part of her energy to the des truction of life. 'Even the appallng total loss of eight millions would make a decidedly smaller difference in the death rate of the belligerent countries than that which exists In normal times between Russia and England. From August, 1914, to June, 1916, more than seventeen million people would have died in Austria-Hungary, Germany, Russia, France, England, Italy and Belgium If there had been no war.

Of the men under arms something like a million would have died since August, 1914, If they had been peacefully employed. The high est estimate of mortalities, in short, would fall considerably short of doubling the normal death rate, and Russia's normal death rate Is more than twice that of England and Wales. . Estimates of mortality in battle are only rough guesses. As to mortality among soldiers from exposure, camp diseases, and so on, we have only the general statement that the troops have been maintained In good health. As to war's effect If any upon the death rate among noncombatants, we know nothing. Probably, however, Europe's death rate since August, 1914, Is les far from the normal than is commonly assume. It should be remembered, of course that war mortality falls upon the most productive members of society men of sound health, In the prime of life. Saturday Evening Post.
