The retirement of Miss Jeannette
Rankin of Montana as a congress-
, woman does not augur well for the
| continuation of the practice of elect
ing wopieu to the highest law-mak-
, ing body in the land. Whether men
fear being sidetracked by the women
in legislative halls or whether they
prefer to have them queens of the
household is conjectural, but It must
be an admitted fact that she graces
the latter place best, and that the

mans. It is plain that the old military
forces In Germany construe the long
delay at Paris as indicative of stub
born differences in the councils of
the allies. Every added day of the
protracted conferences
tends to
strengthen that thought in the Ger-
man mind and to increase the dang
er that Germany may become defiant
and reject the settlement, leaving the
allies in the dilemma of moderating
their demands or threatening the
enemy with renewal of warfare.
Unfortunately evil forces even now
are plotting in Germany for a re
sumption of hostilities. The Hohen-
zollerns and the whole junker ele
ment are desparate and must be
watched closely. The gambler who
plays for high stakes and loses is
eager for another chance at fortune
and the military gamblers in Ger
many are no exception to the rule.
They will outwit the allies if pos
sible.—Spokesman Review.

Paving Marion County.
One hundred miles of market road
pavement for Marlon County, to be
laid during five years, is a program
upon which the Roads Committee,
Taxpayers’ Committees and Grange
Committees
have
substantially
agreed. A county bond issue of $840-
000 Is Involved. The roads would be
paved by the county court instead of
by contract. As none of the roads
would have heavy truck traffic, it is
expected that a lighter quality of
paving laid by the county court
would stand up. The paving laid by
the county court in Marlon county
during the last four years has stood
up fairly well, and has proven of in
estimable benefit to the districts
reached. It totals only a few mileB,
however—just a mile or two on each
of the different roads leading out of
Salem. Light as the paving is, com
pared to a first class quality, it has
been of great benefit, and the county
likes the idea of getting more of it.
The fact that the different inter
ests of the county, hitherto conflict
ing, have gotten together on the pre
liminaries of this plan is a good sign.
Heretofore these interests have been
at swords’ points. The kind of paving
laid by the Marion County Court,
while far from the selidist, is a
whole lot better than none and a
whole lot cheaper than none, consid
ering the cost of keeping gravel or
macadam roads in condition.
With a hundred miles of paved
market roads in the county. Old
Marion will develop rapidly. The I
loganberry industry has made won
derful strides there, but its success
is limited to road conditions. With
more paving, there will be more lo
ganberry production. This will meun
not only happier and more contented
farmers, but heavy increase in prop
erty values and in tax returns. With
Marion County united on a good road
program, there would seem to be no
limit to what would be accomplished
in any part of Oregon.—Oregon
