This is a direct tax on the productive energies of the nation's affected a handicap that sooner or later must end in bankruptcy. The cost of all these war preparations must be borne' by the pro ducer hence are an indirect tax upon the toiler. Most or the money spent in armaments is thrown away and wasted. A fifteen million dollar battleship has a life of but a few years, and is obsolete almost before completed. .i.t costs thousands ot dollars to tire a great gun costing tens of thousands and its life is but a few shots. And if war should come, the costly armaments would be found as useless as the javelin, catapault and even the flint-lock musket have become. A thousand dollar aeroplane would put the fifteen mil lion dollar dreadnaught and the expensive fortifications out or business m a few seconds. The eomparit ivory in expensive subnmrino would nt the cost of a few minutes of time and a few dollars, without the loss of a life, sink nn entire fleet of bnttleships. Stimulated by necessity, a thousand inventions would simplifv the slaughter of mil lions. The greater the army assembled, the greater the slaughter. tTnseen and unheard even, the grim reaper would tnke such toll that war would forever remain the barbaric nightmare of civilization's infancy. War is an anachronism, and must disappear with the progress of civilization oven as the individunl war has among civilized people. 1 f the money spent on armaments was spent in useful development of resources, the world would be far nearer the minimum.

SOIE months ago the people, of Grants Pass voted n .,$200,000 bonds to aid in the construction of a railroad fo,tle coast. To legalize the bonds, the legislature passed a validating act. .However, there remains the question whether or not a municipality is empowered to vote bonds for the construction of' a railroad outside its limits. This will probably require a supreme court decision to answer. Tins question lias caused a delay in the promo tion of the railroad. The proposal has been broached in Mcdford as to wuuiiier or not xnis city woum vote ooinis to aiu in iuc construction of a railroad to the coast. There is hardly a doubt of it. If n bond issue would insure the building of another railroad, Medford would vote it quickly enough but the bonds would not be voted unless such assurance was forthcoming. Grants Pass might possibly settle the legality of its bonds if it followed Los Angeles' example and annexed the ricllt-of-wav of the nronosod railroad ns nnrt nf tlm oHv ,Lo,s Angeles annexed a narrow strip I0 or more miles in length and a hundred or so leet jn width, from the city to the senshore, which is used for a trolley line and there is no question but that such a proceeding would settle tho questions involved at Grants Pass. The town of Pogue "River is now considering some such expedient in order to secure the location of the big cement plant near it. Such a proposal would enable the town to finance a trolley line to the plant. Such enter prise deserves reward. It is evident that communities in Southern Oregon must assist themselves in developing the country by utilizing the community credit so it is necessary to bo resourceful enough to meet the emergency. It is a shame that coun ties cannot bond themselves to secure railroads as they do roads, and that the state cannot, bond itself to build the railroads necessary to develope undeveloped ami unsettled sections and utilize latent resources. Some da" when we have learned bettor how to govern ourselves, we will, as a people, trust ourselves for development enterprises, in stead of handing over our resources as a bonus to specula tors.

Without water wo should get a very limited crop ntJ compared with tho ciop we get by the use of it; and iu addition thu (piality of tho nlfalfu produced by ir. rigntion is very much superior to Hint produced without irrigation. The productive capacity of our ranch, it is safo to say, is increased three fold by the uso of irrigution, and it would scout to any ouu that it is the hoigiith uf folly to i eject nu presents itself; particularly if ouo knows by experience tho iptuutity of alfalfa raised without iriigutioii uud that rained with irrigution.
