The conviction of the Urschel kidnappers in Oklahoma sup plies welcome evidence. In the last few months two other kidnappers have received maximum penalties. Of course the usual appeals will be taken, and the usual delays result. But there is also evidence the courts are doing everything in their power to prevent delays. With public opin ion finally aroused against crime and criminals, legislators certainly should revise the law to assist in this direction, before many years pjs. SIMIL'.K results are being secured in the larger cities. New Tork courts have been sending gangsters to prison, in record breaking time; while under the new "criminal reputation act" Chicago recently sent four of that city's most notorious racketeers, to Joliet. This Lamson murder case in Palo Alto was cleared up in jig time. Lamson has been sentenced to death in December. fNCE more there will be appeals and delays. But the courts can't be held responsible they are merely following out the law. For these needless and destructive delays only the people themselves are to blame. In their present mood they should soon be able to secure laws which will back up the law enforcement officers and the courts, in their determination to stamp out organized crime, spending less attention to the SEVERITY of the punishment and more to its PROMPTNESS.

TUB LONG S.MO KES ARE THE BEST According to analyses made by the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station lour years ago, the popular brands of pipe to bacco contain from 1.46 percent to 3 84 per cent of nicotine, while popular brands of cigarettes contain from 1.6 per cent to 3.11 per cent of nicotine. Various brands of tobacco, cigars and cigar ettes purported to be "denlcotlnlzed" were found to con tain from 0.67 per cent to 3.26 per cent of nicotine, practically no less than plain tobacco. But who knows whether It Is the nicotine or the pyridine or the car bon monoxide or the ammonia or other substance In tobacco smoke or In tobacco that does the harm? No body. One doctor's opinion Is as good as another's. Studies of the effects of tobacco smoke have indicated that aome of the nicotine In tobacco Is burned up and destroyed before the smoke en ters t,he smoker's mouth. Only a part of the nicotine enters the mouth with or In the smoke. The drier the tobacco the more nicotine destroyed by burning. If the tobacco la moist the smoker gets more of the nicotine, according to Dr. W. E. Dixon of Cambridge. KTO doubt Tammany is laughing in its sleeve over the entrance 1 ' of the capable and scholarly Joe SIcKee, in the New York i The amount of nicotine m the smoke from a thin or slender cigar mayoralty race, McKee, according to the Tammany political code, will split the opposition with the fiery Fiorella La Guardia, and the effici ent Tiger machine will put their stuffed shirt, John P. O'Brien back in tho city hall. Mebbe so. But we have a hunch, backed up by a fcrvcut hope, that the old army game will not win this time. According to the political calendar a Tammany upset is about due; and according to the political dope sheet, a house ,. xr. chief was ahlTsieed Wed, arng In a manner befitting his offi cial position.

Bates has retd from a whirl around the union, and reports that people In the Mid-West ssked him: "Well, why don't Oregon think up something funny to make us laugh any more?" Thanks to the irrepressible Jimmy Walker and "Boo-boo" O'Brien, the city of New York is bankrupt, and the people as a whole are eager for a new deal. Tammany will have the ad vantage of the best political machine in the country, with at least 300,000 votes, perhaps more, that can't be pried loose. But in addition to his excellent record, as successor to Jimmy Walker, JIcKee has both color and brains. If La Guardia could be pulled out there would be nothing to it. But even with him in, there is a chance he will cut into Tammany as much as the good government coalition. He will get the Italian vote, which is normally with the Wigwam. inrllan summer has hit us, causing At anv rata th pntrflnrA nf ATpKpa rrivfR thn aolf rpflnrmtint many compliment, to be paid tha , weather.

BrlU Metal Works, Is less than the amount In the smoke from a fat and thick cigar. . More nicotine reaches tho mouth of the smoker of a given weight of tobacco In the form of a cigar than In the form of cigarettes. Probably the least nicotine renches the mouth ot the pipe smoker, provided the pipe Is clean and dry. A cigar or cigarette bolder permits condensation of some of the nicotine in the smoke, bo that the smoke whloh enters the smoker's memth will contain less nicotine than would be present In the smoke of the same cigar or cigarette without a holder. A long atem la advisable for Vie pipe, for the aame reason. There Is more than facetlousneu In the idea of using a long stem so that the smoker keeps away from tobacco. The foregoing, observations are based on the studies of Dr. W. E. Dixon, published in the British Medl csn Journal, October 32, 1917, I repeat, we do not know definitely whether the effects of tobacco are due to the nicotine or to other sub' stsnces in tobacco or In tobacco smoke. In my own opinion, the carbon monoxide in tobacco smoke Is at least worthy of consideration ss a prob able factor of the toxic effecta of to bacco, both chronic and acute. These observations tend to confirm a view I hsve long held, namely, that pipe smoking Is the least harmful of the three habits. Certainly pipe smoking Is as en joyable as any other method ot using tobacco. I AFFAIRS WEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Birthmark Baby. 10 weeks old. has birthmark.

O., 265 El Ca mlno, Beverly II Ills, Ca.If NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre The Oregonian Shows the Way OOD for the Portliind Oregonian 1 In refusing to fullow the Portland chamber of commerce and the grasping and giistiferous Mayor Carson, in tho proposed highway "steal", it is showing that breadth of view, and enlightened statesmanship, which was, once upon a time, its proudest tradition. Listen to this, the best summation of the highway situation, which hag appeared, in any metropolitan paper: This newspaper thinks the Portland effort to obtain an in creased allocation of federal highway funds for Multnomsh county at the expense ot other counties Is misguided or mis taken or both. Chief results of It are to Increass up-state resentment against Portland and to give the federal bureau of public works the Impression that there Is a good deal of un necessary qusrrellng in Oregon. Portland Is being accused these days with rather more then the usual frequency and virulence of selfish manifestations of one kind or another. The up-state press appeara to see In us little to admire or commend. As a matter of fact Portland la not more selfish thsn the smaller cities nor less so. All com munities average up about alike. It would be easy, though profitless, to cite examples of selfish action on the pert of every . Oregon olty from which complaint against Portland Is now being made. Rather than press further for an Increased allocation of federal road funds, let Portland concentrats on getting under way an application to the public works administration for a combined grant and loan wherewith to build Portland's long-tslked-of road to the sea. For the matter of that, include both the Wolf creek and the Wilson river short roads, with proper Initiative and effort the thing can be done, as outlined In these columns Friday. It would be an enterprise more profitable and less provocative than trying to get Multnomah county highway funds alresdy allocsted to other counties. It took courage to say that 1 The Rose City humdingers will be after "Te editor" tooth and nail, and the outside com munities as usual will not send in any bouquets to compensate for it. Hut the Oregonian is absolutely right. There is no substitute for good will, no price other than the loss of self respect, too high to pay for it I The people outside of Portland should apprceiate this service by the "Northwest's greatest newspaper." As a representative of one outside county, the Mail Tribune herewith extends its haudl fcl ', - 'A TICONDEROGA, N. Y., Sept. 30. Iconderoga, on a winding, well-wat-eicd Adirondack trail, was once strewn with trading posts, forts and pioneer cabins. At the head of beautiful Lake George and within a lml oo of Lake Champlaln. Pt. Tlconderoga Is a land mark in the birth of the nation. The Adlron dafCks are espe cially glowering with rusty fol iage this time of year. Smoke hangs low. All the way as we dizzily climbed the pea'is Lake George lay blue and un- r.'ppted for Its 30 mile length. So peaceful. Odd that Indian war cries and the rattle of musketry once ech oed around ltl Many mansions on the coastal es Uiarles now bear "For Sale" signs. For this region was a get-away for Wall Street plungers. During summer youthful campers hike the trail. But the only hiker we saw was a Ztm's "Weary Willie," even to a bandanaed bundle on a shoulder stick the first tramp In years! An aural buza was noticeable as we continued to ascend. Harry Sllvey peered from one plateau into tho abyss and murmured: "Without then mountings, there would be no val leys I" And went back to his cat-nap. Showlnjr how profoundly pedantic this pilgrimage has become. Tlconderoga Port's crumbled ram parts stilt bristle with decaying can bon. One turn In the road reveals a monument to memory of 600 out of 1.000 of the Black Watch who died here. Their valor inspired a favorite hobert Louis Stevenson poem, "Tl conderoga.' Hallowed ground indeed. Even rebuilt, the fort Is a puny de fense in modern warfare. One air plane, one bomb and It would be wiped out. I wondered how futile our present defense would seem 100 years from now. It's a paragraph Mr, Bria bane could make hum. STATE HORT.

UP) Upon the assurance of representatives cf the Utah State Banking depart ment that a plan for reorganization of the Western Loan and Building company, tn the hands of the state hanking commissioner, would be com pleted within a week. United States District Judge Tillman D. Johnson today ordered a 30-day continuance oi the action of Rose Sullivan of Rock Springs, Wyo., for the appoint ment of a federal receiver for the company. Affairs' of the $25,000,000 concern were placed in the hands of the state hank commissioners with the consent of the state banking officials of eight vestern states in which it operates, at the request of Its board of direc tors. "Reorganization should be com piec ed In six months," Judge Johnson said, "while liquidation might take ten years. I can readily conceive that state officials might find It person ally profitable to liquidate the com pany. Is there any Indication that there is such a condition or prob ability?" He was assured by counsel for Bank Commissioner John A. Malla that banking officials of Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Washington, Wyoming and Utah, favor reorganization. The build ing and loan commissioners of Call fornla and Oregon likewise favor rs- organizatlon. It was stated, insofar its laws of those states permit appll cation of a centralized reorganization plan. Will Rogers in Craterian Hit &- mm rVaV , m'fh Rogue River ROGUE RIVER, Sept. 29. (Spl.)
