Geo. Chamberlain will be elected to
stay at home this fall if he is not
defeated in the primaries. Whered
Vane Geo. has seen his day in poli
tics and is going to be retired in
favor of a man who will put politics
on a business basis.—Observer.
There seems to be a concerted ef
fort to elect dairymen to the legisla
ture to put oleomargarine fully and
.inally on the shelf. It Is mighty easy
to get into class legislation. Why
should a poor man be forced to buy
butter at a high price when oleo suits
him quite as well at a much less
price? Is this country always going
to legislate for class interests, or will
it teach a time when the good of the
people as a whole will have consider-
| ation.—Telephone Register.

It Is sad to see religionists disagree.
Down at Roseburg an alleged divine
healer had a debate Saturday night
i with an alleged evangelist as to
whether or not God still performed
defeted in the primaries. Weather
did and the evangelist insisted that
there had been no miracles since the
time of Christ and but for one period
I before. Neither speaker could have
I been worth a whoop for the local
I paper describing the bout says that
i half the audience left the meeting
, place before the end of the first
round. If alleged authorities are un
able to agree on matters of religion
it is not reasonable to expect the
average layman to do so.—Gazette
Times.

The fellow with a sweet tooth who
is now being soaked for sugar might
keep in mind that the national ad-
ministration turned down the plan
of purchasing the Cuban sugar crop
of last year, a method which kept
sugar down during the war, and ar
gued that it would be an injustice
to southern planters and manufac
turers—and by the way, this admin
istration has been very careful as
to how things effected southern in
terests. Now it is asserted these same
southerners bought the Cuban crop
at the price the government could
have secured it and after secur
ing control of all sugar in sight have
the world by the tail and are fixing
sugar prices on a basis of “all the
traffic will bear.”—Independent.

When the only way to decrease
prices of commodities is to increase
production and the only way to have
money enough to do the nation's
legitimate work is to stop prodigal
waste it is financial madness and is
economic madness for hundreds of
thousands of workers to be inces
santly off their jobs on strike but for
all the public to go ou spending none
the less wildly.
The United States Government
must eheck its mad spending and
pay up its billions of I. O. U’s. the
American people must cut off every
penny of waste that can be trimmed
from their careless, reckless spend
ings and get down to hard work. If
the United States government and
the American people both together
don't slap on the brakes, then, with
all the riches nature has bestowed
upon this country, with all the opu
lence there is for its sons to gain by
energy, industry and thrift, we shall
go careening
through
financial
squander and economic prifligacy in
to disaster as terrific and lasting as
fell upon Europe through war’s car
nage and destruction.

Financial Madness.
From the New York Suu Herald.
Lord Rothermere warns his coun
trymen that Great Britian, like the
rest of Europe, is afflicted with fi-
nancial dementia. So is this country.
It is financial madness for the Unl-
ted'States government to be spending
money—spending
it
seventeen
months after the war—at the rate of
more thaa seven billions of dollars a
year. It is financial madness for the
United States government to be pil
ing up a deficit at the rate of be
tween three and four billions of dol
lars a year. It is financial madness
for the United States government,
when it is pouring three-quarters of
a billion of dollars into railroad loss
es, nearly half a billion of dollars in
to shipping board expenditures, and
two thirds of a billion of dollars Into
Interest on the public debt, to pro
pose to pile on top of such prodigious
outlays and deficits billions more of
indiscriminate drains of the national
treasure.
It is financial madness for America
industries, when they are facing in
terminable taxes of stupendous vol
ume, when man will not work and
capital will not flow, to be borrow
ing billions of dollars to put into
new construction, extensions and Im
provements at prohibitiva coat» of
interest, prohibitive coats of mater
ials, prohibitive costs of labor.

It is announced that Secretary
Baker Is unable to figure out his in-
oome tax and that the nearest he can
get to It is approximately $480 of
being correct. Why not abolish this
complex system and adopt one wh-se
cardinal principle Is common sense.
It costs the government a million
dollars to collect the tax it gets un
der the present system and costs the
people of the United States every
cent collected and more in Increased
prices of commodities. The only
reason for the present tax is that the
politicians in both parties want to
be able to say that they are making
the rich pay the tax and placing the
burden upon those most able to bear
it. There was never a bigger lie in
poiicities. The tax is merely passed on
to the ultimate consumer through
manufacturers, wholesalers, jobbers
and retailers till by the time it
reaches the consumer has been multi
plied several times. The consumer,
would be much better off, and so
would the government, if he were
permitted to pay the tax direct.—

Many schools are now undertaking
to prepare young men for "business
administration.” No doubt young
men entering business need a broad-
er training, and many college grad-
uates have not done enough work
along business lines. At the same
time, too many young men are fit-
ting themselves for office positions,
and too few are trying to obtain skill
at the ordinary mechanical tasks in
factories. Only a very small part of
those who enter offices will ever be-
| come factory managers. Most of the
others will have to content them
selves with very ordinary clerical po-
! aitions that any routine worker can
till. The "white collar” job is too
popular. There should be a lot of
men who are more anxious to learn
the rudiments and fundamentals of
business, and less who study how to
add up figures and post books. The
ambitious fellow is more likely to
advance from the bench than from
the office.—Roseburg News Report
