PRICES ARE; HIGH
i CONSTANTINOPLE. (Correspon
. dence of Associated Press.) ' Cbn-
. trary to reports Turkey Is well sup
plied with -food, and, while prices are
unusually high, they are much lower
than those prevailing in the Balkan
states and In some other countries of
Europe. 1
The following list of current prices
which the consumer is called upon to
pay shows the actual condition: . i
Flour 26 cents a pound; potatoes
11 cents; beans 20 cents; meat 50
: cents, and eggs 90 cents a dozen. ' '
Vegetables of all kinds are not
- only abundant but' relatively cheap.
Clothing and shoes, also may be had,
but generally the prices charged are
, to high as to take them far beyond
the purses of Hie poor. Hotel rates
. are lower than in most European'cit-
les. and the service is as good -as
could be expected in a country just
emerging from a long war. t
. In order: that foodstuffs, may be
placed within range of the poor; the
' American food administration is now
soiuus : wuiLt? uuur , tit iua vwils a
pound, which Is expected to bring
down other prices as far-asthe actual
necessities are concerned. The .work
of the Americans is attracting wide
attention and. much interest.
I Dr6gs, and in fact all medicines,
are' very scarce and. expensive. Most
large centers in Turkey and ' Asia
Minor need medical assistance. ' -
The care of a million or more des
titute Armenian, Syrian and Greek
refugees in the Caucasus and thruout
Asia Minor presents a most serious
problem.' It' is estimated-that there
are in these countries no less, than
haif a million fatherless children
whose condition demands immediate
relief. The American committee for
relief in the Near East is taking up
' the- task, but is finding that its re
sources are heing severely taxed. -

Stopped Cough After Influenza
. "I want to say that Foley's Honey
and Tar 1b the 'best cough medicine I
ever tried," writes E. B. McDowell,
Jl. Ft T. 1, Box 119, Arlington; Tenn.
"My son had Influenza. Ho had the
worst kind of a cough and I tried
everything, but nothing did any good.
God sent me a friend with Foley's
Honey and Tar, and his cough was
bettor the next day and In two days
he had no cough at all." Foley's
Honey and Tar stops harsh, racking
cougtiB; eases wheezy breathing. It
is effective, yet pleasant to take. For

A TEMPLE
UPON a commanding- hill overlooking the Htt of Klai'ri
ath. Falls and surround, fig region, stands an impos
ing structure of classic Grecian architecture that might
well be called the teiuple of discord for hi its incompleted
walls dwells the goddess of dissension -or perhaps the
spirit of Pandora 'Bud her famous box:; -The. structure cost
the taxpayers $ loU,l)00 and prospects are that it will never
be completed, for the $180,000 was oiilv the first install-
tvmnf Tri'TTlnninfliVi iiivr lmnsiff stniirll " , i.-.y
: Klamath Falls was long
from direct "connection or
world and as is the custom in such regions, the citizens
quarreled among themselves for excitement and amuse
ment and to break the mottjny of village life. Then came
the railroad and the attempt to switch the business portion
of the city a mile toward the railroad bv a development
company. This crystalled the quarreling community
into two 'factions the pioneers and property owners of
the old town in the one and the new-comers and develop
ment company in the other. What one wanted , the other
opposed and as a result, neither was, successful and the
business gradually shifted into the region between the old
town and the now and both lost iit. ! ,
The new coiners and development company, to boOm
their project, succeeded in locating the court house at their
end of the town through a county judge who was also an
official of the company. Af ter.$iS0,000 had been" expend
ed on the pretentious structure; the. old faction enjoined
the issuance of warrants for its" completion and the judge
was recalled for building it. .. .- 'i--n . ; . i
After several years of inactivity and Mtigation during
which the county court solved its. financial problem: a
count" judge was elected pledged to' complete the court
house; Instead of living up to his pre-election pledges, he
let a contract tor a new court
recalcitrant county judge was recalled for violating his
pledges and a 6ew judge elected, who prointly repudiated
the contract tor the new structure .although $42,000 had
been paid, and the contractor
balance and the litigation
for the.lawyers, one of whom
litigation will eost the tax pavers a total of SoO.OOO. i
Klamath thus has two, court houses Avithout, for the
time being able to use either and a number of first class
law suits on its nanus, it lias
each court house, "and its. community quarrels made the
town a synon3ni" for discord. . , r . ..,
2so Oregon town has better prospects for the future
than Ivlaniatn alls. It is
tural and stock region still in the infancy of its develop
ment, and the natural outlet for a vast timbered region. It
is a shame that the community cannot get-together, com
promise its factional fights;
good. The energy, activity . and. money spent in village
wrangles would build up a city that would unite the, pld
and new sections' as vital parts of a metropolis for ' such
central uregon. ....
, CROCODILE
" OXCERNING the patriotism of the coiurtry press in
J effectively supporting
tne Portland Journal throws put this sop: i ;
i The up-state newspaper publishers areNi highly effective factor In rais
ing the loan quotas. Their advertising space and their circulation Is all
they have to sell. White paper costs them heavily. It costs them money
tp set In type the news Btories which they publish free In creating inter
est in the loan. ;- . , '
' The average up-state newspaper man is the packhorse -of the com
munity. When free things are to be done for the public welfare the com
munity turns to him. In all public, matters he is the man who pays the
printer that sets the type that carries the free publicity. .. So many
such things come along in the course of a year that the money he pays
out for white paper and newspaper composition on gratis activities be
comes a large factor in the overhead of hiB business and a very heavy
burden. '
"; In all past loans the newspaper men have done their bit, and done it
effectively and sacrificlngly. They will do it again, and; with their com
bined power, will be a big factor in making Oregon first. . -,
' The Journal advocates the plan adopted in Washington
county whereby the' county, court pays for liberty loan
spaee from the general fund remarking: "In that way the
burden is borne by those best able to pay. It is also borne
by all and not by a few. .The wide distribution of the cost
through that process makes it very light on everybody. It
seems an entirely proper plan." . ;. ;
The sudden interest the Journal manifests iri the poor
downtrodden country press is touching but ludicrous,
Pharisaical and hypocritical in view of the campaign of
slander it has conducted for years in the Successful 'effort
to deprive the country pi;ess of its legitimate business and
in attempting to regulate its.advertising rates. ; ;v 'J', ;
j.u is uutj'uiat, ,tue country press nas supponea iiDcrxy
loans effectively but no more effectively than it does every
project tor the welfare of community, state and nation. It
is literally true that the small
the community " and the Journal has done what it could
to hamstring the "willing packhorse.',';:v ? ,
. The publication o'f the aelihquent tax; list JS; universal
ly, acknowledged the most effective method of collecting
taxes and preventing the operation of tax title sharks, and
its cost is borne wholly by the delinquents as a well earlicd
penalty.;' y. et. the J otirnal by perSistelit misrepresentation
held up the publication as ,a crime, and the newspapers as
grafters and attacked every paper publishing the list to
discredit it for handling legitimate busineSsi--iIn: iio other
way can the county contribute more effectively to tne' sup
port of its "packhorse" than by this puhlication. . . i ,
Not content however, with abolishing this- .source of
revenue, the Jouiual also plit a bill through by misrepre
sentation to regulate the rates the country press--exempt-ing
Multnomah charges for legal advertisiiig,r making
them less than any well managed paper can charge and do
business at a profit. Only the fact that the law is ineffec
tive and on its face invalid prevents a serious loss in the
revenue the papers derive ifrom. legal advertising. ,
It is evident that the Journal's interest in taxnavcrs is
.Only in the interest of deliiiquents-K)r it would'liot favor
making tuem pay tor newspaper patriotism. ?';-,; ."i. '.:,
' The country press is fully :tipable of running its own
business without the crocodile sympathy, of the,-journalistic
bird, that, fouls its own nest in the. interest of petty spite
and the country press is patriotic -enough to support the
liberty loans without being paid to do it by- the taxpayers.

shoes with NeOlin Soles his shoe bill
has been reduced 66,".says J.
Allison Allen of Amity, Arknhsas. v
. On the importance of Ncolin Soles
as a fndney saving factor there are
thousands of parents who agree with
Mr. Allen. Because Ncolin Soles give
extra wear where, most shoes wear out
quickest, they cut your shoe bills down.
Ask for Neoliri-soled- shoes when
next new shoes are needed, either for
yourself or for your children. You can '
get thern at any Rood shoe store. And
take your wom shoes to the repair shop
and have them . rc-bottomcd with
Ncolin Soles . '
