jVo Mistake, Its Revolution
HPIIE country has escaped one iort of revolution, but it hasn't
escaped another. In fact the latter revolution ii now in full
wing. It ii political revolution.
Did you notice the editorial in the last Saturday Evening
Post by any chance t Here is the leading organ of stand pat
conservatism, and plutocratic complacency, lambasting the old
line guard of the G. 0. P., and demanding a Republican new
deal. It is the most amazing statement since the late T, B.
alighted from a train in Chicago and pounding his chest, de
clared he felt like a young Bull Moose.
And now comes Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, "than which
there is none such", when it comes to party regularity, and ad
herence to the orthodox school of capitalistic dogma. When
T. B. was a Bull Moose, Dr. Butler went down with Taft to
political oblivion, but with his party, colors not hauled down
by any means.
In his annual report as president of Columbia university,
Dr, Butler makes this for HIM, amazing statement :
"If prom, and profit alone, be ths end (ought by human
effort, then society must reconcile Itself to steady disintegra
tion, constantly increasing conflict between Individual groups
and nations, and eventual destruction."
"Moralist have been pointing out almost from the begln
' alng of time, that It Is only when men rise above domination
by the profit motive and learn to subordinate profit to service
that the social, economic and political ordera begin to come In
sight of a firm foundation and a continuing existence, with
peace and happiness assured to the great mass of mankind at
least.
"It has remained for the happenings of the generation last
past, to force these fundamental truths upon the attention of
men everywhere and to turn the thought of mankind not by
any means toward the elimination of profit, but towards 1U
subordination to service.
"It is only as the world has come to be so widely and so
largely settled and developed that it has dawned upon men how
great Is the loss of this generstlon and that of generation to '
come.'for example, through the reckless um of natural resources
for private profit.
"If helpful service to one's fellow men be the dominant mo
tive, then the greater the LEGITIMATE PROFIT one makes,
the more will he be applauded. Criticism and reslatance come
when the service motive disappears from sight and the profit
motive dominates all."
Dr. Butler, banner in hand, leading the assault upon exploi
tation of our natural resources, and financial greed 1 "Men
must rise above the sordid profit motive, and subordinate pri
vate wealth to publio service."
Astounding! And yet there is no doubt of Dr. Butler's sin-

HOW ARB TUB HEATHENS?
(Crane, Mo., Chronlrlo)
Some Inconsiderate wretch, with
no Idea of tile proper proportion
of things, stoiv a ham from a
Mothodlst minister In a neighbor

visedly, that ths thief had no
good idea of proportionate mat
ters, since he would have been
willing to allow any minister to
keep his ham. even discounting
the fact that It looks mighty
suspicious for a minister to have
that much meat at one time.

" Whereas, the property tax delinquency In the state of
Oregon has been steadily Increasing for the past several years
until at the present time the public schools In many districts
are not receiving sufficient revenue to continue operation; and,
whereas, the warrant Indebtedness of ths achool districts has
been steadily Increasing, due to ths tax delinquency, until many
school districts are from one to three yeara In arrears In their
payment of warrants,, and, whereas, many school district war
rants must be discounted from 10 to 30 per cent, and In some
oases cannot be cashed at all, and, whereas. If the public schools
of the stata of Oregon are to remain In operation they must
receive Immediate and definite relief In some form, and, where
as, ths Oregon state legislature In public session assembled has
, enacted Into law a measure known as the sales tax, and, where
as, the revenue from this tax Is to be for Immediate relief In
keeping the public schools open, and, whereas, this tax will re
duce the general property Ux required by law to be levied for
local school purposes by an amount equal to ths net revenue
received from the sales tax returns,
"Therefore, be It resolved: That In the Interests of the boys

opportunities unless this definite aid Is forthcoming, that this
Ssth annual Oregon State Teachers' association here assembled
In executive session places Itself on record Indorsing the law
and does earnestly urge that every voter In the state of Oregon
who has the Interests of the boys and girls at heart work and
vote for the sales tax. In the event that It Is referred 'to the
people of the state as a referendum measure."
The above resolution adopted by the Oregon State Teachers
association yesterday, at the annual meeting in Portland, clearly
explains the necessity of passing the state sales tax from the
standpoint of the publio school system of this state.
The Oregonian in commenting upon this resolution says:
"Those who think It more Important to savs a osnt and a
half on each dollar they spend thsn to keep the children of
Oregon In school will vote against the sales Ux. as Is their un
doubted privilege."

that' the Ideal line for the doctor
who yearn to make a soft living
without any work or worry. Concoct
a cheap nostrum, preferably a physic
or a tonic, and plug hard on it till
the sucker buy the first package-
after that he will have the habit and
all you have to do Is remind him con

he acquiesces in whatever mother and

of contention. We fathers ought to

April to September, fell off badly In
September and October, and began
to coma back again In November.
"In December' It saya, "both in
dustry and trad were more active
than a year ago."
What happened htre In Southern
Oregon, evidently, happened all over
the Pacific Coast.
THE rise In business from April to
October was a SPECULATIVE rise,
based upon the belief that prices
were going higher and the desire to
get In before the price rise came.
It DIDN'T LAST business, a you
have Just read, falling off sharply in
September and October. Much of
thl falling off was due to the fact
that people bought too heavily in
order to beat the price rise, and so
business had to slow down while this
surplus buying was being used up.
Increases In business that are based
principally upon speculation are
usually followed by headaches of one
sort or another.
LET us hope that the better busi
ness of November and December
has been due to buying of things
that people want and have the money
to PAY FOR. Business improvement
of that sort Is pretty apt to be perma
nent.
