The car situa tion is becoming acute and of nation wide scope with no immediate relief in «sight. Due to the long, hard winter, coal stocks of both commer cial consumers and industrial users are depleted. The-situation is most unusual. Freight rates advance soon Mine rates are advancing. Only 190 coaling days before Christmas Tum-A-Lum Lumber Co Phone HERALD, 111 What would you say to the man who was working for you if he came to you and said, “you've got to do this my way or I quit?’’ Chances are ten to one he would quit, or get fired. For if he got away with such a threat, he, not you, would be the boss from then on The same thing, practically, happened with "Hiram” the “rule or ruin” senator from California. Things Lad to go his way or he would quit the party. Good. If that’s his caliber we hope he does quit. The man who can't stand defeat and stand it gracefully, we don't want him in the camp. He's a disgrace to the párty. William Randolph Hearst, the gentleman who was described as being pro-German during the war in seme of the leading publications of the country, and by the way before we forget it, the German population of Oregon was 100 percent for Johnson; this Hearst chap calls upon the peo ple to create a new political iudependence. Hearst is a Californian, consequently is a strong Johnson man, and it seems as though they can’t stand defeat.although Johnson pledged him- self to support the man the convention in Chicago nominated except Wood or Lowden. Neither were nominated and Johnson is a slacker if he does not support the man of the parties choice. But, Hearst and Johnson are of the “rule or ruin policy.” If they can’t rule, they will ruin. They might have done some real damage to the party had they not been so well known, but the people have their pedegree, and know their brand, and both are fast proving to be “outlaws” of the wildest sort.

Allen of Kansas told the National Association of Credit Men at Atlantic City, that the industrial problem was the most menacing of all the nation’s troubles. "Today the question of foreign relations is forgotten, but our domes tic relations problem. Is the vital question of the hour,” he said. “Prof- iteering by capital and labor and the fights between them have piled the cost of living to such a height as to minimize the cost of the war. The constant quarrel between capital and labor is the “only fight still on. Laws have been passed stopping duelling and fist fighting. but the states- men of this country have not had the courage to end the war between capital and labor. How many tons? Let us know R. A.

Holeproof Silk Hosiery Favors a National Budget System; All Sense of Values Has Departed. Phone 331 I “ The Yard of Best Quality " , H. M. STRAW. MGR. THE HIGH SCHOOL MOVIE By CARTER GLASS, Former Secretary of the Treasury. WHILE our present stock lasts at $1.50 and $2.50. • This is from 50 cents to $1.00 under present values. I am heartily in favor of a budget system. With out effective control over governmental expenditures and limitation of them to the government’s income we shall bring down upon our heads the splendid structure which our fathers have built and which we have pre served. The very success (which you will pardon me if 1 call brilliant) with which the treasury has financed the stupendous requirements imposed upon America by. the great war may become a menace. All sense of values seems to have departed from among us. The depart ments, bureaus'and boards, all inspired by a laudable enthusiasm for their . work, but some by a less laudable instinct to magnify its importance and incidentally their own, bombard the committees of congress with projects, some more or less meritorious, some of no merit whatever, but all con ceived in sublime indifference to the fact that the great business of gov ernment is being run at a loss and that each one of these projects increases, the deficit of the government, and consequently the burden to be thrown, upon the great body of people, whether the deficit be met by increasing i taxes or by floating additional loans. The congress votes with a lavish hand stupendous sums conceived in a magnificent spirit of generosity with a view to the enhancement of the | prestige of the nation, or for the benefit of this or that element in the : community. This it does upon the advice of the committee of congress charged with the business of caring for such special interests. Then, speaking through the great committee on appropriations, it purstes a policy of restriction with relation to the.expenditures of some of the de partments of the government which makes it impossible for those depart ments to conduct the vast affairs imposed upon them with efficiency and economy.

One might ask what’s it all about anyway. The rose has no intrinsic value. You can’t eat it or make anything out of it. All you can do is to look at and smell it. In short it is simply to gratify one’s taste for the beautiful. Is that much. Yes. it is a good deal, people do well to be- surrounded by everything that is beautiful in na ture. and to strew the pathway of life with Just as many flowers as possible. There is more in life than eating and much more than dress. There is an aesthetic side to our character which we do well to cul- tivate. and the world is in pretty good business when It spends mil- lions just to gratify our love for the beautiful, What a dull old life this would be if our walla were barren. our yards dried up patches and thistles took the place of roses and lilies. A love for the beautiful ought to be planted in the hearts of everybody and we do Well when we have those things which should help promote a higher taste for the pretty in nature and art.—Selected.
