THE following editorial from the PortUni Oregon, fount.:; comments on a situation which is too common in practicably eery American city: "Juries can free guilty firebugs when they want to. But the pub lic pays. "t ight separate fires were start ed in a hou.se in Portland. The fire bureau was quick on the scene and put out the blaze in time to have a full view of the tracks of the firebug. "The furniture was soaked with coal oil. Furniture that the own er paid $137 for was insured for $1200. "In a Portland lodging house there were two fires within 35 days. Papers and shavings piled on the floor and stuffed in chim neys, and oil-soaked rags near the remains of a burned candle were found in the rooms. Insurance of $1500 was carried on the contents which had been offered for salt for $450 without a buyer. "A store building was burned iMarch 21 . Insurance of $450 was carried on the contents. The ar son squad says there were no con tents in the building. "Arson has become an industry in Portland. Juries don't convict. A cafeteria was burned for the insurance. One of the owners said he burned it to get the insur ance. He saturated a mop with coal oil, attached a short candle, lighted the candle and left the place. The first jury hung. The confessions of both owners were before it, but it disagreed. "The jury at the second trial convicted, but recommended pa role. And the judge granted it. If juries and courts don't punish firebugs, of course the business of burning and collecting the insur ance will go on. "And a lot of people think it all right in the belief that the in surance companies pay. But where do the companies get the money? They don't pay one cent of their own money for these in cendiary fires. They pay with the money that the insured pay in pre miums. "The home owner pays. The merchant pays. The industrial plant pays. The owner of every kind of property insured against fire pays. It goes out of their pockets in higher rates, and they may not realize it, but they do all the paying for every fire. "And that isn't the worst. As if there were not enough crime, the system of incendiary fires is making more and more criminals. Everj- firebug is a crook. Every new firebug is a new crook. And new crooks are being made all the time by the laxity of insurance agents in over-insuring property and by the gross and glaring fail ures of juries and judges to sense the viu'ousness and criminality of burning property to get the insur ance." s-s-s Some folks mistake desire for ambition. One is the attitude of the loafer, the other the attitude of the worker. S-S-S Will Pay Reward. THE Oregon State Motor As sociation, through its secre tary, Ceo. 0. Brandenburg, is sending out the following special bulletin: To the Police Department of all cities in Oregon, to traffic officers and the public in general. The executive board of the Oregon State Motor Association at its regular monthly meeting held in Portland, June 15, 1925, adopt ed the following resolution: Be it Resolved: that the Oregon State Motor Association, incor porated, will pay $100.00 reward for information leading to. the ar rest and conviction, under the Oregon Motor Vehicle Act, of any driver of a motor vehicle who, through carelessness or recklesv ness, causes the death of one or more persons through an auto mobile accident and fails to prop erly report same to the proper authorities as provided by law, and "Be it Further Resolved: that the Oregon State Motor Associa tion, incorporated, will pay a re ward of $50.00 for information leading to the arrest and convic tion, under the Oregon Motor Ve hicle Act, of any driver of a mo tor vehicle who, through careless ness or recklessness, causes in jury to one or more persons thru n automobile accident and fails to report same promptly to the proper authorities as provided by law." Our Prosperity. ACCORDING to the United States Chamber of Commerce there is a motor car in operation for eery seven inhabitants of the country. Eight billions of dollars are spent annually for automo biles. To billions go for new cars and the balance for aA. line, repairs and accessories. There are l .mkuxw motor cars in use in the United States according to the figures presented. Without going into a discus sion of the economic effects of the motor industry, it is shown that during the rise of the motor era in America saving deposits have nearly doubled, individual bank deposits have more than tripled and life insurance in force has increased two and a half times. One of the first facts which strikes the average tourist to Eu rope is the scarcity of motor cars. In Bulearia there are no mon automobiles than in the average small American etiy. Nowhere ross the Atlantic is there any thing like the proportionate num ber of automobiles as in America. Here mav be found another rea son why radicalism does not grow ana prosper in America. Our au tomobiles are not owned nrinci- pally by the wealthy as in Europe. tne greater proportion or them belong to the farmer, the teacher, the mechanic, the clerk, the small merchant, the railroad man, and so on. They are indicative of the Progress and peneral prosneritv nf , o - o i r , America, all the more significant mat in addition to growing auto mobiles, we have been prnwincr 0. rt savings bank accounts, individual pan aeposits and lite insurance Pure white lead and linseed oil pillS That's what your master painter depends on for a satisfactory job.

S-S-S Egg Industry Big. FEW people who keep hens or eat eggs realize what a big thing the egg industry is. The United States produces about 2, 000,000,000 dozen eggs annually; but China, the largest producer in the world, produces more than 3.- 000,000,000 dozen. Before the world war Russia was the largest egg-producing country in the world. Russia has dropped below China and the United States. In 1923 China exported more than 91,754.000 dozen eggs, either in the shell or preserved in some form. Of this total 24,0000,000 pounds (preserved) representing about 12,000,000 dozen in the shell, went to the United States. The United States exports only about 30.700,000 dozen eggs, and imports from 12,000,000 to 15,- 000,000 dozen, in preserved form. These large importations tend to depress the price of American eggs in the American markets; so a Republican Congress placed an import duty of 8 cents per dozen on eggs in the shell, and 6 cents per pound on preserved eggs. The tariff of 1913 admitted eggs in the & BISBEE I totin'by miles Oil COMPANY IN. J shell, per pound or 10 per cent ad valorem. The farmers who produce eggs are entitled to protection against Chinese eggs, in the shell as well as preserved. S-S-S Get Rich Quick? or Got Rich Sure? IT TAKES an unusually smart man to be a successful profes sional speculator in stocks or com modities. In addition, he has to work at it hard and consistently. The average man who starts in to be a speculator in grain lasts just about two years. The average is a little longer in the stock mar ket, about three years. The reason they fail is that either they are not smart enough or they haven't the capacity for hard work in con tinually gathering and sifting facts and finding out what are ac tual, true values in the stocks wheat, cotton or whatever it is in which they speculate. They be come mere gamblers, betting on changes in price without-knowing the nature or size of the forces that may cause changes in price. At first glance it may seem dis couraging, but there are very few people who can get rich quick. It required quite a few years for Rockefeller and Ford to do it. Al most every one of the compara tively few quickly made fortunes have been the result of accident For 99 per cent of the people the sure way to get ahead is to save with some system of regularity and, as their savings grow, to put them to work in established busi nesses known to be honest and able to earn money.
