The "Dangerous Dillinger," mad fang leader of killers, etc.. etc., was removed to Indian for trial, before hi lawyer had a chance to get a writ of something, and prove the sheriff, who arrested him, was crazy.

There seems to be a difference of opinion between the Secretary of Stete of California, and Portland resi dents, who write letters to the Jour nal, opposing the Sales Tax. The Sec retary of State reports 13,000,000 has already been collected via the Sales Tax, and by 1036 California, ever wicked but prosperous, will have no public debt. Portland observers re port the Sales Tax Is not working. and people are howling about the bread end beans being knocked ou. of their mouths. Siskiyou county, to the south, thinks It has a declcUd re duction In Its property tax, and close to the abolishment of Its school tax. as a result of the Sales' Tax. It Is quite evident that somebody is spoof ing. e The Hearst papers lsst Sunday printed the prize winning lies. In the Liars' Contest for the National Lylna Championship. A perusal of the "lies" will convince any valley resi dent that the contestants did not know the first rudiments of lying. The champion told one He and quit. This shows a lack of endurance. A first-class liar should be able to tell two more lies. If caught In one, and have his victim believe them for two years, or until engulfed in bank ruptcy, m a result of faith In a false hood. The national title contestants might have done , better If they had warmed up by quoting a few passages from the Bible.

An even more determined fight was made to tack a free silver amendment on this measure, but this was defeated, by the bare margin of two votes. In both cases congressional action was purely the result of President Roosevelt's desires. HAD HE REQUESTED rpiri7iL'T? mmm ttt a o ivu.niwn vr nao HAVE BEEN AS SCRUPULOUSLY CARRIED OUT! Roosevelt is boss. He has only to express his desire, and the congress falls over itself to comply. Call this dictatorship if you like that is if you like to be mistaken. For it isn't that. It is democracy functioning effec tively in a crisis. President Roosevelt has this absolute control over congress, enjoys this supreme power, for just one reason, and only one reason, because the people of this country, believe in him, and want him to have a free hand. He has a definite plan. What he wants to carry out that plan, the people of the country wish him to have. If he asked for the moon, there would be a determined popular effort to get it for him.

TTHEN Oregon legalized horso and dog race betting, we 'in V V quired why it wouldn't be better to go the whole hog and establish a state lottery. The purpose of this legislative action was not primarily to promote sportive gambling, but by taxation of betting, inurcuse state revenue. As the net proceeds of such gambling go largely to a few insiders and only a slight dribbling to the tax department, we thought, and tiill think, a properly regulated state lottery would be both morally and economically preferable. still have on file several comments on our suggestion, W casting doubt upon the sanity of anyone who would seri ously make such a proposal. The most charitable view was that "Ye Editor," had by mistake lighted a loco weed cigaret. It WAS, indeed, a perfectly "preposterous and balmy suggestion." Well, may be it WAS., But we would like to call attention to the fact that the same proposal has been made in the House of Representatives at Washington, The speaker is Representative remarks are herewith condensed : . "The legislature of New York state In 1790 established a lottery,. the proceeds from which built the New York city hall. In May 1813 the congress of the United States authorised a lottery which raised 10,000 a year to Improve the city of Wash ington and to make public Improvements. Assembled In con gress today we find ourselves unable to raise money from ordi nary sources to psy our expenses. To what sources may we go to pay these things. Under our present aystem we must borrow or tss. But only a percent of our people pay an Income tax today. If we rely on Income taxes then we must hit the man of email meana , , , But Mr, Chairman, there Is a way to get thla money. We should approve a lottery. Prance raises 9800,000.000 a year with Its national lottery. SO nations are today recipients of lotteries. It Is open and available to us. It will lighten the burden of the tax payer. It will give the forgotten man a wel come opportunity. Mr. Chairman, It would give hope to our people. It would thrill the nation. I ask you to come along. (Applause.)" Of course that, doesn't completely disprove the "balmy" charges. That there aro plenty of "balmy" congressmen in Washington no reader of the Congressional Digest would deny. But it at least gives the suggestion a certain standing. And the fact that certain leaders of the American Legion have en dorsed such a proposal, and ten states in this country have lot teries under consideration gives it further standing. course in normal times no thoughtful person would sug gest such a bizarre expedient. But the present times are not normal, far from it. Who would have predicted ten years ago for example that Oregon would be wet and there would be legal betting on horse and dog races, while tho'beer vats flowed, in the pastoral and righteous City of Rosea t No one. If the sales tax should fail and business conditions should NOT materially improve, the adoption of a state lottery in Oregon would not bo so surprising. For money must be scoured SOMEWHERE. And this can be said for a properly conducted state lottery. It would be FAR MORE profitable and LESS demoralizing than general and promiscuous betting on the bloodhounds and the ponies I , L FLIGHT COMPLETE ST.

CLINICAL TRIA A clinic U a fine place for the tyro to get his hand In anl enjoy the advantage or actual experience i - petor, n, launch- ea Into practice for himself. A clinic affords the doctors who con duct It consider able liberty In advertising which Is still unethical for the private practitioner. I don't mean hon est advertising. such as a busi ness firm buys. I mean publicity which a shrewd group can get free. The head of the nose and throat department of the best advertised clinic of them all reports In an of ficial bulletin that there were 609 throat operations In the clinic In 1032, and explains that "more than 80 per cent of the patients who pre sented themselves in the nose and throat department had had satisfac tory tonsil operations before they came to the clinic,," One wonders what brought them to the nose and throat department. "The number of tonsillectomies decreased considerably. There are many reasons for this. The prin cipal one Is that the tonsil opera tion ts being well done through out the country." This ought to make the. piker pri vate practt oners feel flattered. Then the chief pins back his ears and gets off some droll humor. "There Is In use. altho the method Is fortunately on the wane, a method of electrocoagu lation of the tonal.. There seems to be no logical basis for the method.

A remarkable figure In the literary aceno Is Ffniey Peter Dunne. One of the wealthiest writing men, he launched his ca reer ns a reporter In Chicago dur ing the era when Ade, John Mc Cutcheon and Eugene Field were riding top gallant. And he followed them In to magazines and books. His homespun Philosophy, wrlt- &f.$A myth toil Mr. Doolev, left a pern. snent. Impress on literature. He Is widely quoted amouK nestnrs of the political clubs even today. In younger years Dunne was a bon vlvant who could down a quart of champagne without batting an eye. Today he Is ruddy cheeked and brimming with vitality. One of his early companions was the globe-trot-1 ting Bob Collier, and Dunne circled the globe with him several times. Of! all men In literary trade, he had the greatest capacity for forming friend ships with men of wealth. Another of hla cronies was Harry Payne Whitney and both Collier and Whitney leit Dooley's creator sub stantial sums In their wills. Thus by violating many success rules laid down by the Orison Swett Marsdens, he reaches the usual "benefit" period In a sunetty glow of health, weslth and: fame. I It has been several months since I've Idled around my favorite loafing spot the Information Desk at Qrand Central. Of employes meeting the public, attendants there seem best of all risers to the occasion. Targeta for an Incessant barrage of questions that would confuse the average, they are always serene and unru fried. A bewildered old lady wanted to know how to get a dead earphone recharged and a tweedy sprout with go!f clubs inquired If the club car sold a certain brand of table water. Thus It thused for 20 minutes. Also a fellow rushed up who fluttered In flutey uptakes exactly like Ed Wynn.

As for this clinic employee's In sinuation about "entire removal" of the tonsils, there the man betrays his narrow outlook. He Is still prac ticing on the antiquated theory that It Is necessary or advisable to re move every vestige of tonsil tissue, when a septic focus In the tonsil Is to be eradicated. That may have been good practice tn tha gay nineties but I venture to say that few good physicians today share the belief. Not only scientific theory, but actual experience has amply shown that the removal, destruction or disinfection of the septic focus of the tonsil Is all that is required. And this, we must concede. Is adequately accom plished by diathermy, electrocoagu lation. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

SAM INSULL, former utllttlea mag nate, gets Into trouble In this country, and leavea for foreign parta between two days, finally winding up in Greece. In the course 'Of time the Greeks, who want to sell wine and olive on and other products In this coantry snd are probably told by the Ameri can state department that If they want to be happy they must be good, courteously hand Sam bis bat, and point out to him the fact that the door la open. So It looks like he would have to move. " M TOO BAD for Insull, that la, Greece must not be such a bad place to live. Qua Lompropolous tells this writer: "Thla la an expensive country to live in. It costs 1160 to be born, and about S260 to die. ' "In the old country, It coeta only about $16 to die, and nothing at all to be born." . That would be the simple life. wouldn't It? STILL, the old countries, where It la cheap to be born, cheap to live and cheap to die, have stood more or less still for centuries, and yils young country, where It la costly to live and almost equally costly to die, has GONE AHEAD. Why. do. you reckon? 4- ELL, for one thing, people In this country WANT things, and when they want them they set out to GET them. It Is wanting things, you know, and not being satisfied till you get them, that makes living expensive. If you never wanted anything. It wouldn't cost much to live. - IT IS wanting things and scheming out ways to get them and being willing to work rather than merely DO WITHOUT that makes buslne.FS go ahead. Take the automobile, for example. which is held to be one of the out standing reasons for the prosperity of the past couple of decades: Just as soon as automobiles began to be reasonably dependable, people began to want them want them worse than they had wanted anything else in their lives. So they set out to earn the money with which to buy them. As they began to GET the money with which to buy them, and DID buy them, they created a great new Industry, which In Its turn created thousands of Jobs that never had ex isted before, and so made It possible for people to earn STILL MORE MONEY. IP NCBODY had wanted automobiles If everybody hsd Just gone 'on being satisfied with what they had this great new industry which did so much In the way of building up prosperity and raising average stand ards of living never would have arisen. FROM time to time, people say In a Joking tone: "If we only didn't have to eat, we could get ahead In this world." If we didn't have to eat. what would become of business? The whole great food business would come crashing down In ruins, dragging with It a lot of other kinds of business. 11TE ALSO say Jokingly: "If we could " Just keep everything that comes HERE'S THAT QUICK WAY TO STOP A COLD r -v wnVl 2 " ' " I I WW I Tk 2 Bsyer Aspirin , Tsbjfts.

And when you buv, see that you gel the real BAYER Aspirin Tablets. They dissolve almost instantly. And thus work almost DOES AOr HARM THE In and pay nothing out, we could get rich quick." Could we? How? It Is Industry thst gives us Jobs, and it la TRADE, which meana pay ing out as well aa taking in, that keeps Industry alive. If everybody kept saving everything thst came to him, trade would soon perish. . - M SURE It costs a lot to live. And It Is equally sure that wanting things injikes it costly. But our whole American standard of living, of which we are so proud, Is built upon wanting things, and the more we want the more we can have. So let'a not change our ways. i Continued from Page One, Senator McAdoo ts preparing to champion a home state Industry by taking charge of the ' movie stars coming here Friday for their code hearing. Chairman Summers performed a Sheridan feat, galloping into the house at the last moment to take charge of the final action on the money bill. House leaders were fran tic because they could not find him. The senate debate on the money bill was not much above that of the house. The senators knew little more about the bill than the country gen erally. It was merely a case o sp proving what the president wanted. A newsman stopped a senator after the debate, saying: "I did not know you were a money expert, senator.' The senator looked at him quizzically, not knowing how to take the remark. Finally the senator expanded his chest and said : "I thought when you first said that you were trying to kid me."
