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

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.

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. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

It is an amazing "yarn." It strains
credence. 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.

THE WAR DEATH RATE.
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. The normal annual death

rate of those countries, taken togeth
er, Is about twenty-three In each
thousand. 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.
