A farmer is always willing to listen
to the man who says taxes are too
high.—Telephone Register.
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.

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.

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.

with the statement of a leading finan­

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.

Printing Point Does Not
Bob Up and Down
In an L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter
the point on the paper which is to receive the
type impression is stationary at the instant the
type hits. The carriage does not bob up and
down when the shift is made to write capitals.
Why?
Because the type is shifted—not the carriage.
The only movement of the carriage is back and
forth on its closely adjusted ball bearing runways—
and this does not take place while the print is being
made. There is no lifting of the carriage.
This is one reason why L. C. Smith & Bros, type­
writing is free from blurs and every letter in the right
place.
