The new electric sign in the front window of the Farmers’ National Bank is attracting considerable at- tention. The sign is equipped with a stwies of letters so that any wording desired may be used. Last week it was saying, “Taxes now due, pay at this bank. "Taxes now due, pay at borrowing it and putting in the words “Subscriptions now due, pay at this office.”—Ione Journal. ------ o----- The Lane County fair board has abolished ite eugenics department and will apply the money in the dairy section. One member of tjie board is quoted as saying: “We thought it better to put this money into stock than into babies.” It is quite fascina ting to wonder what influenced the board. Did it think the Lane county babies were good enough already? Did it believe that prize money would not stimulate to wholesome competi tion the parents there? Perhaps the members are old bachelors, or possi bly some of them have served in a baby contest as judges and narrowly- escaped from the just resentment of irate mothers.—Oregon Farmer. The printed newspaper cuts of General Huerta, who only a short year ago occupied the headlines in all <lis,Stches, do not show him to be the austere bloodthirsty villian he was reputed to be when he filled the posi tion of dictator of all Mexico. The General, who is now in the United States on "personal business” of his own.'-oks more like some benevolent old gentleman who would feel more at home at a Wednesday evening prayer meeting, or sitting along some quiet stream with a fish pole in his hand. Still it is hard to unravel just what is sometimes behind such a mask, and the movements of the erstwhile dictator is being closely watched by the federal authorities.— Umpqua Valley News. Have you ever stopped to think that if it were not for bond issues not a single railroad would have been built across this continent, and we would still be using the prairie schooner. Again, did the United Sta tes Government wait until it had the money on hand to build the Panama Canal? No it sold bonds. If the best financiers of this country, and the government itself, think bond issues arc a business-like method of paying for permanent improvements, why can’t the citizens of Washington County adopt the same plan for build ing roads that will be permanent. You, good citizen, who cry out against the suggestion of bond issues for road building, should ponder over the above facts.—News-Times. The farmer is becoming a friend of the automobile, a vehicle he formerly despised. The fact was brought home strongly Saturday when a score of farmers came to the county seat with their families to do their trading. Among many farmers the automobile is becoming an indispensihle adjunct to the farm. If something goes wrong on the farm, the farmer cranks up his machine and makes haste for the city. The advent of the automo bile on the farm will go far to help solve the perplexing road problems for more than ever the men on the farm will become good road boosters. The pleasure machine will later be followed by the auto truck with which the farmer will haul his pro ducts to market or to the nearest railroad station.—News Reporter. ----- o------ Will Irwin, famous war correspon dent and magazine writer, in a re markable account of the misery and desolation caused by the devasting war in Europe, eloquently voices the hope that those responsible for the terrific struggle and its consequent misery may be made to suffer the tortures of eternal damnation. Mr. Irwin expresses it «in this way: “1 left the Scare Coeur yesterday with the feeling that, could I grasp this sorry scheme of things entire, I would find it in me to mold into the new world of heart's desire an old-fashioned, fiery, eternal hell—not for him who murdered for sudden lust of hate, nor for him who has yielded to the uncontrollable impurities with which he was born—nor for any of these vulgar sinners, but solely for the handful of men in Europe whose greed for power and hardness of heart and denial of human right have brought this universal suffering on Europe."—Oregon Messenger.

The advances and repulses reported from time to time are mean ingless to anybody who follows them on the map. Each army reports its advance and fails to tell how it is later driven back. Berlin indignantly denies reports that peace terms are being consider ed. No doubt, unofficial Berlin be lieves this. But Dr. Dernbcrg's fresh statement as to Germany’s sole am bition raises suspicion that there is to be a "feeling out” of the enemy as to peace terms. Taken in connection with recent financial transactions and with the statement of a leading finan cial journal of Germany, this is sig nificant. The war debt of each nation is piling up in an alarming fashion. It will take generations to pay it. Whether Count Andrassy authorized the purported interview or not, the views attributed to him would he worthy a statesman wl o sees the situation clearly. Mr. Sunday and the Pr«ss. Billy Sunday, in his talk to the New- York Press Club on "The Newspaper and its Influence for Good or Evil, ’ pays a tribute to the general integrity of the newspapers and the newspaper editors of the country that we believe is well deserved, but when he says that “if the newspapers of New York Chicago, St. Louis and Boston com bined in a clean-up movement all the gangs and thugs and thieves and dis honest politicians would beat it,” he exaggerates our power for good as much as he does in the declaration that "if every newspaper in the coun try was suppressed crime would in crease too per cent in twenty-four hours and all hell would hold a jubilee.” The press will blushingly admit that it has an influence, but is not prepared to claim such tremen- dous power as Mr. Sunday would so graciously confer upon it. If it po- ssessed such power and did not exer- cise it it could very properly be held responsible for the continuance of evil in the world. Unfortunately, evil is not so easily removed as his asser tions would indicate. It has been firmly intrenched upon the earth for a good long while, and forces more potent than could be brought to bear by the press or any other human organization have assailed it contin uously for centuries, yet it survives.
