In the opinion of Judge Elbert H. Gary, chairman of
the United States Steel Corporation, basic industrial con­
ditions are “perhaps better” than they have been at any
time during the past thirty years. ‘‘It may justly be said”
he continued, “that a large majority of the people of the
United States are seudious, industrious, progressive, con­
sistent, law-abiding and friendly toward all the peoples
of the world, and they have great reason for gratitude to­
ward the merciful Providence.”

Water and Power act on the ballot for the third time. The
act has not been changed. It still authorizes bond issues
aggregating $590,000.000 to finance state ventures in the
hydro electric power business, and provides that a direct
tax may be levied to make up deficiencies.
As before, the measure appears in the form of a con­
stitutional amendment.
Neither courts nor legislature
could remedy its refects, and no change could be made
except by a state-wide vote on amendments to the amend-

When widows, grass or sod, married women, married
men and ordinary street shieks get mixed up in flirtations,
sex parties and street walkers gossip, it dosn’t make any
gain to their fair reputations; it dosn’t bestow any awards
of pride on their children, it dosn’t put their families in
better standing or, in fact, it is to the public, below the
line of disgust. Street walkers, pimps, card sharks, flirts

For one hundred and fifty years towns, villages and

This year, as always, many communities are making
preparations for a big time. As to near by celebrations
that Vernonia people can conveniently attend, the largest
and best time promises to be at Hillsboro. Hillsboro will
