The fiend Tress In tho latest to niiccomb to thn stress of tho times. In discussing tho suspension of Its competitor tho Bend rtulhnin makes nn Intelligent analysis of conditions and ono which may bo generally ap plied. The Ilullctln sals: In less than 12 months four Ore gon dally newspapers which had been published from .a (n 'month to a "yonr'fii'iovvTH already served by es tablished dallies havn suspended publlratlon.,,Thcso papers were In K KlamaUiFalls. Marshfleld, Medford and Head. Tho reason in each case was thn same. The towns were not 1 largo enough tp supp'ort two dallies. Tho best opinion Is that there should ho at least 10,000 population In a city a fow thousand more would be 6afer to warrant publication of. two dally uewspapcrs. Whoro two papers are published In a town tho size of, udni), thn Inevit able result Is that sooner or later one will hava to lVu up. Tbtf other. In the meantime.

They act from thp heart, not tho head, and tho result hi loss. To mako n dully newspaper what It should bo in a town the slio of llend. there should bo but one to whkh should bo given the complete adver tising appropriation of every .advw' tlscr in town. It is true that newspaper I a business Drooosltlon. At the same tlmo It differ from every other busi ness In that it "must reflect the Idoallsm of tho community." It must not only bo well managed, but 'must represent the best Interests, voice the progressive spirit and stand for the welfaro of the people it serves and not be tho moutbpleco or organ of special interests and factions' Sv ek ing selfish advantage, under pretense of fllllug a "long felt want." That Is why, although a business proposition, a uowspaper In a town like Dcnd bus a right to expec:. If it Is to bo what It should be, the gen eral and undivided support o' adver tlserti and subscribers. ". ItMs truoMhat no newspaper can. fully satisfy overy individual In the lommunlty, Mistake will occur th.it muko enemies, prejudices will arise, tho most sincere efforts will bo misin terpreted, motives will bo Impugned. All that a nowspaper with a conscl unco can do Is to do Its best to pre sunt tho laws faithfully and accu rately, to piny no favorites, and to hold and present honest editorial opinion. These things Tho Bulletin tries to do. It makes mistakes as do wo all. It knows that by soma It Is damned as ull that Is bud. Others and espe eltlly tlioso who know beit tho men who muke tho paper from day to day know lliut their ono idea Is to give llend it worth while dully paper, ex potting In return fair compensation for tholr of foil. Alone again In tho field, Tho Ilul lollu feels a renewed sense of re sponsibility which It wilt discharge , with tho utmost care.

R. R. WAGES FOR FIVE YEARS (S. P. Bulletin)' The national industrial conference board has made a comparison of the new wage rates with those in 1914, using its own cost of living index. It places the av erage earnings of the four main groups which had their wages cut at about 19 per cent higher than in 191-1, measured in buying power. Below is given a comparison of the rates of pay for the groups which had their wages cut July 1st, the fig ures being from the United States railroad labor board. The first date December, 1917, is just prior to federal control; January, 1920, just before termination of fed eral control; May, 1920, when the wage increase of the board hecame' effective; July, 1921, when last year's de crease became effective, and July, 1922, the latest de crease, i . , J '' ( ) , , The, figures represent' the average cents' per heur: Dec.

And this is the way It happened: "It was tho vacation season and an automobile carrying a party of tourists stoppcjl on a road that wound through u magnificent stand of Douglas fir, In Western Wash ington. The travolers sat in raptur ous admiration of the quiet forest scene and rhapsodized over the great trcei that roluramd their majestic beauty as far us the eye could tee. One of the men of the party lit a contemplative cigarotto und tossed the match to the sldo of tho road. "Half an hour later an aeroplane forest patrol flying high above the mountain runge saw yellowish smoke ballooning over the trco tops. He moved his control and turned In that direction. Upon tho chart In the ma chine before him ho located tho flro approximately, then returned quickly to a mountain fire station ten miles away. "After what seemed an Intermln-j nine wait, tne patrol noted various gangs of, men at work. They were combating that most terrifying, most ungnvninubli) and dangerous of all .rebellious elements the forest fire. Kor a day nnd night and another day thn battle waged.

Tho scar covered hun dreds of ucres and it would contlnuo to smoulder and smoke for weeks, while all about In thu udjarcnt'woods wero fire guards constantly vigilant to seo that the enemy did not creop out nnd strlko ugatn. ' tourists Journeyed caro-freo and ut terly unconcerned. At a sawmill thoy stopped for a few minutes to watch the logs In slow procession from thn pond to tho baud saws.
