F. C. BAKER, Publisher. 1 '' Editorial Snap Shots. •> 11 ------ o------ To the newspapers of Oregon is due more than to any other one factor the success obtained by the Liberty Loan campaign in Oregon. We anticipate, before another crop of evergreen blackberries are ready for market, some enterprising citizen will start a fruit cannery here, not only to take care of the blackberries but other fruits and vegetables. ------ o------ We are inclined to think that Mr. Hoover is overestimated, and that he has tackled a bigger job than he is able to manage. Citizens will have more confidence in him if he can con trol the food speculators, for that is where the rub comes and is costing so much money to keep body and soul together, while a whole lot of people are getting rich raising the price of everything. i i ¡ t There seems to be a disposition on the part of fishermen to violate the fish laws in Tillamook County. Whether this is because they have been allowed to do so in the past, or that the increase in the price of fish is «. "reater temptation to violate the law, we are inclined to think have something to do with it, the author ities aic going to compel compliance to the law in the future. This is per fectly right and proper and it is just as well for the fishermen to make up their minds that they are going to be watched most carefully, and when they do violate the law it is going to cost them money. The best thing they can do is to strictly observe the law. ------ o------ In arranging the quotas for the re cent Liberty Loan drive for counties and cities, when making another drive a different system should be ad opted. For illustration, one of the quotas placed Tillamook City at $80,- 000 and Tillamook County at $99,000. The $107,550.00 raised by the two banks of this city was largely sub scribed by persons living outside the city limits, so it is unfair for the city to take all the credit. Some few towns when the drive was on, obtained a good deal of newspaper notoriety, which they were not entitled to, for the people in the surrounding country helped to swell the amounts, and for that reason the people in the vicinity of Tillamook City are entitled to credit for helping swell this city’s quota.

If Europe hadn’t had a war the United States would have hail no beet sugar industry. Without a beet sugar industry the American housewife would have been at the mercy of the cane refiners, and the annual tabog- gan slide of sugar quotations would have been a matter of history. Mr. Hoover has plenty of credit for other things. Let’s allot the credit for the approaching drop where it be longs.
