Can' Be
A N upstate supporter of the sales tax, believes if the proper
campaign is put on, sufficient signatures to the referen
dum will never be secured. '
Vain hope! Sufficient signatures to ANT referendum can
be secured. Sufficient signatures to any initiative measure can
be secured. All that is needed is sufficient money to pay the
petition circulators.
Whether or not there is a popular demand for the action
proposed, has very little to do with the case.
Experience has clearly demonstrated that if solicited, nine
voters out of ten will sign ANYTHING. Many will sign with
out even knowing what they are signing. As the circulators are
paid for every signature secured there is no lack of energy on
their part.
As a result any active minority however small, provided it
has the money, can secure referendum or-initiative action in this
state, on any measure, at any time, and the people must pay for
it, that is they must pay for the expense of the election called.

nothing is settled permanently until the people cither endorse or

""THERE appears to be considerable misapprehension regarding
A the president's recent silver proclamation, One enthusiastic
individual at least perhaps unduly exhilarated by the roports
of all night celebrations in certain Colorado silver camps, rushed
into this sanctum sanctorum to inform Ye Editor, that at last
the Into William Jennings Bryan had been vindicated.
"Free silver!" he shoutod, "hot dickcty, now watch the old
West hum 1"
Hot Dickety may be right, but there is no free silver in
volved. Free silver of course referred to the free coinage of
silver. It was a real battle cry 40 years ago. If wo remember
aright, it was at the Denver mint that a trio of silver miners
demanded that the silvor bullion they packed be minted into
silver dollars, and when the director refused, started action in
the supremo court to compel such action. It would hac been
pretty soft for those who had silver, for the market prico for
the metal was rapidly declining, but not so soft for those who
didn't. Thcso miners went further than Bryan. The Great
Commoner merely advocated the acceptance of silver as a re
serve for currency at a fixed ratio with gold at 16 to one
that is 16 ounces of silvor to equal one ounce of gold.
IN his recent action President Roosevelt doesn't enter into this
matter at all. The government is merely going to buy NEW
LY MINTED silver, at about a 50 percent increase in price, and
is going to coin HALF of that into dollars.
Not bad for the silver producing states about seven out of
48, Oregon not being among the lucky seven. In fact very good.
But not free silver, no vindication for William Jennings Bryan,
merely the same sort of relief for the silver miners that has been
extended the farmers and gold miners and other needy groups
in this sorely harassed country of ours.
True it will help. More money will be circulated in thcso
seven states, and better business in ono section, means better
business in all. But there will be no Inflation. As Paul Mallon
pointed out in his column "you can't inflate five billion dollar
currency with an eighteen million wad of silver." ' ,
Moreover thcro is nothing very new in this pronouncement.
President Roosevelt merely followed out the international agree
ment on silver reached at the London conference. Among the
higher-ups the action had been discounted several months ago.

HAVE YOU A LITTLE TOO MUCH CARBON MONOXIDE IN YOl'B
BI.O OD?
A test of the air for the presence
of carbon monoxide Is made by shak
ing to aaturlatloa In the air a test
tube containing
a few spoonfuls
of normal blood
solution, which
Is yellow when
quite dilute. This
turns pink If
there Is carbon
monoxide In the
air.
There Is
quick and fairly
accurate quanti
tative test for
carbon monoxide
in the blood, the
pyrotannlc acid metrod, which can
be made in a few minutes from the
biood obtained by a prick of the
finger.
Plpeless gas heaters, that Is, heat
ers burning In the middle of the
room without flues, or In a false
"fireplace" without a chimney, are
the most common source of chronic
carbon monoxide poisoning. Radiant
heaters, though most efficient, are
nevertheless the most dangerous when
used without proper flue connection
to carry off the products of combus
tion. Unscrupulous agents sometimes
assure the unwary householder that
"all harmful gases are completely
consumed or burned" by the special
burner, and therefore no flue con
nection or chimney Is necessary."
That Is untrue. For safety and health
never burn any fuel In a room unless
there Is adequate provision to carry
the products of the combustion out
of the room.
By tests of the blood for carbon
monoxide It has been found that
nearly everyone living in the city has
a small trace of the poison In his
blood constantly. Following the
smoking of a few cigarettes or a pipe
or clear the quantity of carbon mon
oxide In the blood rises considerably.
In my opinion this slight carbon mon
oxide poisoning from smoking ac
counts for many ill effects of exces
sive smoking.
Photographers' .hypo',' sodium
hyposulphite, otherwise called thlo-
sulphate of soda, has proved a good
remedy for the after errecta or car
bon monoxide gassing and also a good
remedy to relieve the unpleasant
symptoms of monoxide poisoning.
First., like a Dooming quaca, s
should provide the prospective cus
tomer with some symptoms, I suppose.
Well, at that there may be no great
harm In mentioning a lew 01 ine
more common complaints of persons

peculiar fact about the pallor of Co
poisoning Is that a blood count Is
likely to show a high red cell count,
quite up to the normal or even above
the normal average number of red
corpuscles.
The diagnosis of chronic monoxide
pelsonlng is a question of your
physician's opinion, which may or
may not be corroborated by the result
of a quantitative test of the blood
for monoxide shortly after exposure
to the gas.
Change of occupation of environ
ment and plenty of open air life are
the best means of restoring health.
It Is unlikely that the symptoms
would persist if the poisoning does
not occur constantly or repeatedly.
Much relief has been obtained, as
already suggested, from sodium hpyo-
sudphlte. The sufferer takes one-half
teaspoonful of sodium hyposulphite
once a day, or. twice a day in recent
case. It is best taken dissolved In
water with some syrup of any desired
flavor. Take It occasionally, or for a
week or two, then discontinue.

call pain in the side, usually brought
on by running? Mrs. W. O.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
HOLIDAY business In Southern
Oregon this year was unexpect
edly good - much better, In gen
eral, than a year ago, and In some
cases the best In three years.
Whether this was true of the
country as a whole, we have not yet
had time to find out, but presum
ably It was. There was no special
stimulus In Southern Oregon to make
business better than average.
So we may assume safely that busi
ness EVERYWHERE was better.
WHY? "f
Well, people spent more money.
Spending more money Is the only
thing that CAN make business bet
ter, for business Is a matter of buy
ing and selling.
So we can answer that question
without a bit of hesitation.
THIS question arises: Why did
people spend more money during
this holiday season?
This must be the answer: Because
they have recovered their confidence
sufficiently to believe that If they
spend the dollar that Is In their
pockets they will be able to get
ANOTHER dollar to take Its place.
For nearly three years people
lacked this confidence. They felt,
uneasily, that the dollar In their
pocket might be the last dollar they
would ever be able to earn.
Feeling that way, their inclination
was to hang on to money like grim
death, spending It only for the -most
elemental necessities.
llE TALK about lack of confidence,
ft Just what do we mean when we
say that?
We can't mean lack of confidence
In stability of this country, for even
In the darkest days last spring, with
every bank in the country closed,
there was no lack of confidence In
the future of the country itself.
So what we must mean Is lack of
confidence In our ability and the
ability of others to earn more money
lther In the form of wages or in
the form of profits.
If we lack confidence in our ability
to earn more mono, we will natu
rally hang onto what we have Just
as long as possible.
When we begin to spend again, It
MUST mean that we are getting back
our confidence in our ability to EARN
again.
ANOTHER thlng helped to make
business better this holiday sea
son the CWA money.
This money was relatively small In
amount, but It circulated , rapidly.
Within a few hours after the first
CWA payroll checks were issUed, they
began to show up In the stores.
In other words, this CWA money
moved, and it moved fast. It is the
speed with which money moves, you
know, that' makes business good.
4-4
THE CWA program, In this writer's
humble Judgment, Is the first
government program for the stimula
tion of business that has ACTUALLY
WORKED.
It has worked because the CWA
money has got out Into the hands ol
people who promptly spent it for
goods and services. You can pile
up money in the vaults of the banks
until these vaults are ready to burst,
and It won't help business a particle.
You have to get money OUT
WORKING before It can help busi
ness. The CWA program has done
Just that.
It may bankrupt us In the long
run, but there Is no denying the
fact that It is helping right now.
