The release from stato prison, by pardon and parole, of 02 gentlemen of varying degrees of moral toughness, during December, one of whom ha already managed to get back In his former cell, is offset by sending a 12- year-old girl from Lane county, to th , reform school. It's a wonder the des Ierate child did not beat out the brains of the matron with her doll. There lias been no murder worth mentioning for some time, but the Louisville, Ky., beauty who nearly Choked a romantic millionaire to death with a silk sock, might have made something out of the Incident. .Investigation of alleged irregular ities In Salvation Army war work Is threatened. They will be charged with accomplishing something, and getting somewhere near ' the front line trenches. Their distribution of coffee and doughnuts in.tlio danger zone, looks small alongside the outfit who wanted to build an athletic stadium In Paris after the war was over.

Mr. Chairman, utter the war ceased I was hopeful that we would Btop the habit of granting $5000 automobiles to various of our public officers. I think wo ought to quit it. Wo pay our cabinet officers J12.000 a year, $4,000 more than a representative or senator gets. Thon we grant them those JuOOO cars, and maintenance, and then thoy draft a. civil employe, who draws another salnry from tho govern tnnnt, to drivo the car for them in many cases. This provision shows conclusively that tho secretary already has a car furnished by- the govern ment It has not been long since It was bought. If the committee will look it up thoy will soe that it has bean ued by him only a comparatively short tlmo. Yot this (5000 is not to buy a now car, but it is Just to pay .the difference between his present car and a new one in exchange. I lmvo a car, which I had Co pay for myself, that 1 have been using a couple of years. It 'stands over ut the House Office building every day, put in the weathor, and, of course, it wan not looking very good. So I took It to tho KtudHbakcr Co. down here to boo what they would allow mo fur It In excliango for n new ono. Thoy said thoy could allow me only $500 Tor it. That Is all they would allow mo, but I took It to nn expert painter and paid Mm $f.o; and he paint ed It for mo. and It now looks Just as goon as a now ono and I am going to drive it two more years. I should think maybe tho socrrtary could have his car painted up, anil It would not cost this government $5000 more In oxebnngo. I am not plcayunlsh. 1 be lieve In follows spending their own money just as extravagantly ns they want to, but 1 do-not think wo ought to spend this f .'u00 of public money to enuhlo our secretary of the interior to exchange his car, when tho money comes out of tho people's taxes. We ought to quit It. llow long are wo going to keop it up? It Is Just a con tinual Increase of the number or offi cers for whom we allow theso curs. 1 think the tlmo has come when wo ought to pin right down and cut them off. Let them furnish their own cars. Jit them furnish everything else thut other peoplo furnish. Pay them their salaries, but whenwo pay them their salaries let up stop and not just keeo adding, these extras year after year. I think it ought to 60 out. THE LAUSANNE OPERA BOUFFE. t ' FKO.M this distance the Lausanne conference appears rather u faree. There is a great deal of talk about this and that untl the other, and today the Turks stalked from the conference because of allied insistence on an Armenian Home, but somehow the reality of the protest fails to register. In fact, ns far as the press reports nre concerned, there lias been little reality .from the first. This latest development looks merely like another dramatic gesture, a feeling out by the Turkish delega tion, to bring the allied cards on the table, and expose their offensive assuming that they have one. The plain truth seems to be, that tho Turks, with their army fighting trim and their troops "rarin' to go," have the allied diplo mats at their mercy and know it. The recent break between England i.nd France over German reparations, the virtual retirement of Great Uritain from aggressive participation in European affairs, merely renders the Turkish position all the more impregnable. ;o country in r.tirope wants war witn the lurks. Jtussia is frankly lier ally, France to say the least, is benevolently neutral, and all this talk about the sacred rights of Christian minorities, a home for the Armenians, and security for the Greeks is good, ns far as it goes, but it doesn't go much farther than the Lausanne Casino. . Of course, at this distance, definite judgment is hazardous. There may be more to the conference than appears on the surface. But as the reports have been cabled from day to day, it looks as though the tntire performance were nothing more than u process of beating time to camouflage the inevitable. Ami the inevitable is that ns no Christian nation stands readv to fight the Turk, the Turk is going to get what ho whiits, with the possible exception of complete control of the Near East oil fields. As secret diplomacy goes, oil is something worth fighting for, cither with guns or with money. Christian principles and minorities nre not, So the conference, ns a whole, looks rather silly. It may drag on many more weeks, it may break up tomorrow, but the finnl out come will 'not be materially changed. Turkey, for the time being at least is to have her place in the sun. Quill Points A conservative is one who would rather be safe than right. Dangerous demagogue: Anybody who threatens to disturb nests that are feathered. . When a man says that he is a hopeless old bachelor, he means that he thinks he isn't. As the world grows wiser and wiser, it finds more and more ways to make a fool of itself. The bar-keeper was wickeder than the soda fountain clerk, but he didn't shake his hair back at intervals. Europe has her tips and downs. The diplomats are always up to something and the people down in the mouth. St. Mark's Church Cor. North Oakdale and Fifth Sts. f a. m, Holy communion. 10 a. in. Sunday school. 11 a. m.

This 1 now l"'ul" V'"! the department of agriculture called a eonfeiei.ee in New Vork on D-eem-l r 1.1 to devis a method f obtain ing adequate supiilie of the ebenii- '"'i-he situation l largely out of the hands of producers who obtain arse nie as a byproduct from the smelting of copper, einuubar and lead ores. I'onniiuently. arsenic production Is limited bv the output of copper, ouicksllver and lead In tho Cnlied States. A few companies, whose hk greBate yield of arsenic will be rela tively small, plan to make arsenical chemicals directly from the ores ns a major product. Hy far me laigesi producers, principally on the Pa cific conat, manufacture a high-grade white arsenic recovered from the smeller fume In bnghousea or by pre cipitators. One of the early Incentives to the production of arsenic in this country was the elimination of smeller smoke nuisances, and though this is still a minor reason for maintaining nn out put, the price nt arsenic is sufficiently attrac tive to make its production de sirable In this region. Although at the present time, miners are not paid for tlie arsenic content of their ores, and are sopie timrs penalized for the presence or that element, a continuation of the present price level would encourage the handling of arsenical ors now treated with reluctance (However, the only way to stimulate arsenic production through prospecting and mining is to offer a price inducement for its production. Such a move in this region might have a beneficial result in relieving a shortage to some small extont. . . A. E. KELLOOO. Oold Hill. Oregon. Jan. -3. lilSH.

That which has been a curse to the mining industry of this region has apparently fallen into the laps of the mine owners ns a blessing. 1 am re ferring to arsenic which appears in large quantities In nearly all the .ores of this region, especially the cinnabar and copper. ores. Arsenic in a crude form made our cinnabar ores refrac tory to such an extent that the ordi nary modern furnace and equipment erected in the Gold Hill district was niado useless, until government ex perts, came to tho relief of the .-.pe-ralors and worked out a system of recovering and hnndlng the arsenic, which was so simple that the . opera tors were .astonished at the discovery. Now these quicksilver operators are possessed with a world of wealth in arsenic as a by-product in their mines. Tho nrsenlc jnnrket Is enjoying a boom far surpassing the hopes of producers n few months ago. Com pared with an average value of white arsenic of slightly over 6 cents a pound for the last 20 years, tho price today is over 12 cents fur future ship ments nnd gspot tonnages command even higher . prices. The sudden de mand which has arisen is due to the cnll for calcium arsenate by southern cotton. growers, who find that chmi cal exceedingly useful In combating the ravages of the boll weevil. The demand for whlto arsenic has literally swept producers off thoir feet when they saw nn opportunity to contract for the disposal of their output many months ahead at theso prices. Prices have naturally gono skyward under the influence of tho force of supply nnd demand, lrres-1 pective nf the absence of any tariff BIG SHOOT - At Eagle Point SUNDAY, JANUARY 7 TH TRAP AND TARGET 1 SHOOTING ' All kinds of Merchandise, etc', given as prizes v ... l"1 -:'':-Ti FUNERAL SERVICE ' 'V ; Including every attention that can come from the hands of a Funeral Director.
