THAT LEGIHLATUKE1 (Oregon Voter) Somebody in Clackamas county has ft darling child studying music at ft private school In Portland and desires to have that child given the degree of Bache lor of Muslo without the expense of qualifying In the University of Oregon Scliuui of Music So, to save this expense, the legislature was asked by the Clackamas sen ators and representatives to "p&si a law." The senate prompt ly passed the bill. 6. B. 100. The favorite argument against the Bales Tax, la Its defeat at the polls laat summer. A survey should be taken to determine how many patri ots now opposing the Sales Tax have been beaten at least four times In an Oregon primary election, but are still running for office. One of the Klamath county court houses Is described by the Klamath Palls News, as "not even a good ruin." The journal further deposes, "It Is too old to be any good, and too young to be Interesting," and, "It Isn't any good standing, and yet It Isn't worth while, as ft business enterprise, to tear down." This looks like a perfect rathole for federal funds. An admin istration that has not mentioned economy, since It out the pensions of disabled veterans, with a great blare of publicity trumpets, ought to be easily Induced to do something about it.

And, furthermore, Finland Is diplomatical ly distasteful to France. Last summer Mr. Mnchlne-Oun Kelly, a kidnaper, was sentenced to life Imprisonment. Machine - Qun boasted he would "be out by Christ mas." The distinguished Impounded criminal has six days In which to make good. It is now recalled that he did not specify which Christmas. Fears are felt by the Portland Jour nal during the course of an editorial fit over the Sales Tax, "that the good old state of Oregon will become an autocracy." The trial of a Portland Juror alleged to have offered himself for sale, "to swing a csso against the government," falls to scare the Jour nal, though far more cause for hys terica than what the British did to the colonists before the Revolution ary war.

Kthelwyn B. Hoffmann's Seml-Annual Clearance ffl How la progress Money YES, money talks I It undoubtedly talked when Greece re fused to observe its extradition treaty with the United States regarding Samuel Insull. For this was a very extraordi nary thing for Greece to do. The reply of the United States government, if addressed to another world power would have been a cause for breaking off of diplomats relations, if not for war. Uncle Sam asked in no uncertain terms, why Greece should treat an extradition treaty, as a "scrap of paper." Greece decided to swallow the insult, because we presume, money was still talking. But as Paul Mallon points out in his interesting column, there was a sudden transformation in the Grecian policy, when Uncle Sam started to do a little money talking on his own account. Greece it seems sells olives and olive oil to the United States. It also wants to sell wine. Quite unofficially but none the less clearly it was brought to the attention of Greece,' there would be no further sales in this direction, unless the extra-legal pro tection to Brother Samuel were withdrawn. Twenty-four hours later, the word went out over the Atlantic cable, that Mr. Insull would have to seek some other refuge than Greece, after the first of the year. Ideals are inspiring, principles are beautiful but when it comes to getting results, both appear somewhnt inarticulate. Internationally speaking at least, it is MONEY that TALKS! The Lion and the Lamb POLITICS makes strange bod tion for a referendum of the sales tax, has been filed, with organized labor heading the list. Politically speaking this is nothing less than the lion lying down with the lamb, For years and yearsi organized labor has fought FOR the things that the farmers have fought AGAINST. Organized labor has been in favor of high protective tariffs to assure a high wage scale, and for cheap foodstuffs, a program clearly and definitely against the interests of agriculture. The traditional complaint of rural America has been against such a policy that compelled it to buy in a dear market and sell in a cheap one. Look over the past platforms of organized labor and the national Grange . principles they have been diametrically opposed, for nearly half schools; and the farmer who owns be reduced by 30 per cent if the sales tax is adopted, are hand in hand, cheek by jowl, fighting to defeat a measure that has been a God-send to every farmer and every property owner in the state of California 1 - a a a a a WHO is responsible for this extraordinary alliance, between organized labor of the big eity, and the overworked and hard pressed tillers of the soil in the wide open spaces? The man who wants a high tariff wall maintained, so he can enjoy higher wages, in the factory, which can therefore sell to the farmer at HIGHER PRICES, in perfect agreement with the man who wanta the tariff reduced, so he can live more cheaply, and opposes the labor demand for cheaper foodstuffs, because he feels he is entitled to at least the cost of producing them I Whoever IS responsible, has the horse-laugh on those who maintain the age of miracles has passed I Comment on the Day's Nezvs By FRANK JENKINS SENATOR HIRAM JOHNSON, speak ing at Washington, aaya the coun try "must go through with the Rooee velt program or go to hell economi cally."

And SS-ffm that 1 a typical Anyone with enough brains to consult any au thoritative text book of physiol ogy, Howell's for Instance, will find that the he quoted Is Just a modern American custom. "In the larjje intestine protein putrefaction Is constant and normal occurrence." 3o says Howell's "Textbook of Physiol ogy," published by Saunders, a .id available in any public library. So it comes to a clear Issue. Which do you believe the nostrum vendor, the fake food manufacturer, the trick healer who blows his horn In the streets to attract gullllble customers or the physiologist? I am not unaware of the fact that a Rood many of my medical ool leafruea. some of them high In the profession, still cherish vague notions about "autointoxication" or some kind of poisoning of the body by absorption of products of putrefac tive decomposition of protein sub stances in the intestine. But I assert unequivocally and I doubt that any physician of stand ing will attempt to contradict this assertion that there la no scientific evidence that any such things hap pens. We have no good reason to Imagine that any poisonous of Injuri ous waste matter or product of putre faction In the Intestine can get Into the circulation tr Into the system unless there Is an ulcer or other break In the mucous membrane lin ing the Intestinal wall. Not only Is putrefaction In the In testine normal In a healthy person, but as likely as not It may be a beneficial process by means of which the complete digestion of proteins la possible. There are many products of protein putrefaction In the Intestine peptones, protoses, ammonia, am ino acids, lndol, phenol, skatol, phe nylBcetlc acid, fatty acids, carbon, dioxide (carbonic acid gas), hydro gen, marsh gas, hydrogen aulphid one of which are poisonous, even If administered In considerable doses.

Please publish same. It Is a well known fact that Jackson county, Oregon, Is one of the richest counties on the Pacific coast In prec ious metals and that we have been leading the state In gold production. Now are we, as a people, iooklnc forward to the best interests of our state and county, going to submit to this knockout blow from the next congress In Washington, D. C. and take the wallop lying down? JOE A. THOMAS. Medford, December 19. The article follows: Members of the newly organized Gold Producers' association of tho United States, residing m north ern California, are aroused over rumors that one of the initial measures the forthcoming session of congress will consider is the levying of a tax on gold mining equal to two-thirds of the in creased price per ounce in excess of the old price of 920.67. The rumors have It that lead ers In congress are Influenced to consider such aotion because Aus tralia and the Union of South Africa are now receiving a larga revenue by a tax on the increased price of gold. The Australian tax levy is reported to be two-thirds of the increased price, and, while the South African levy Is not known aa to its precise amount, the rumors have It that gold mines there are now paying a tax rating 950.000,000 annually. J. 0. Kemp Van Ee, secretary of the association, made this statement: 'The high price per ounce of gold has enabled many low grade properties to be oper ated at a profit. If there Is to be a high federal tax on the In creased price, then such prop erties can not be continued in operation. We are to confer on the subject, and the conclusions arrived at by the executive coun cil will be communicated to the leaders In congress together with an explanation of the real situa tion in gold mining. Prices of com mod It lee utilized in mine op erations have gone up as well as gold. To add a gold tax will simply destroy the bright picture of the Industry, the first It has had In many years."
