A GREAT NAVAL GRAFT.
After all the talk of arbitration and peace of the world, comes
Colliers with a page article for a greater navy.
It shows that we are powerless to dfend our coasts against
Germany, and that the Pacific coast is at their mercy. . '
The kaiser could swoop down on our unguarded western cit
ies and make mince meat of Uncle Sam in 48 hours.
What Colliers gets from the gunmakers and the steel trust for
that page of rot no one will evernkow, or even think of.
But that it is excessive speculative rot no one can doubt
who reads between the lines or know, or even think of.
If the thirteen colonies could lick England at sea and land
in their infancy, what could America do now to Germany?
It is folly to stampede this government into expenditures of
millions for steel battleships and fortifications.
But a3 one great folly succeeds another it will probably be
done, and the article in Colliers, followed by all the national for
sale publications. .
When the army and navy areregarded as a gigantic graft we
will come nearer getting at the truth of things.
Laboring men of this city should see to it that they are reg
istered and vote for the amendment to the charter that gives a
resident laboring man or teamster the first right to employ
ment on public work. If there are no Salem men with homes
and families out of a job it is time enough to import labor. But
when Salem residents and home owners ana people who have to
pay rent and taxes to keep this city going are out of work it is
rough to bring in all kinds of transient labor and take the bread,
and butter out of their mouths, and leave them unable to pay
for their homes and send their children to school. Vote for the
amendment to the charter providing that preference be given
to the home laborer. '
AMEND THE PRIMARY LAW.
The present Direct Primary law has no proper relation to
the city affairs, as it is a party primary.
The non-partisan primary should be adopted at the coming
city election.
Let us strike the first blow for freedom from the impractical,
expensive law we now have.
Let Salem take the first steptoward a higher and better sys- -tern
of nominations and elections of city officials.
That is the combination of the Des Moines and Tacoma plans,
sand we already have the initiative and referendum. ' . '
We already have the recall and the non-partisan ; primary
will give us the most practice! election system, possible. "
That amendment should receive the support' of every citizen
who wants to free the dity of partisan machinery.
The present primary law disiranchises all but members of
the Republican and Democratic parties.
It is un-American and excludes the business man by being
held on Saturday afternoon.
Adopt the non-partisan primary law to be held on Monday
afternoon, and where all citiv.ens can vote on equal terms.

The horse editor rises to remark
that the Corvallis Gazette-Times,
editorially, locally and "newsily,"
is one of the brightest and most up-to-date
little dailies on the coast.
A New York girl had a letter
published in an Oregon City paper,
saying she wanted a nice young man,
and got 63 replies from that place.
This Is a hard slam at Oregon City
girls. Those- answering are perhaps
not familiar with the proverb: "It
is better to bear the ins that you
have, than fly to those you know
not of." And this, by the way, is
not flattering either. As a matter of
fact, the' Oregon City girls are hand
some and bright enough to almost
make one, forget ' Salem's bevy of
beauties.

Gypsy Smith says of the Salvation
Army, 'God pity you.' And this be
cause he thinks a Christian should
not put on any decorations or bodges
Indicative of his religion. Some folks
see no more yirm in a Salvation
Poke bonnet, or red trimmed cap
than they do ln a "voclferosity of
vtrbifuge.'V A . loud bonnet is no
worser than a loud mouth.

Anent the Individual drinking cup
fad the Brownsville Times has the
following:
"A fond m'other of Brownsville,
whose little son had Just entered
school, was informed by him on hl9
return at noon the first day that he
would have to buy a drinking cup
for himself in order to avoid con
tact iwith the germs that are oh the
other cups.' She gave him a quarter
for that purpose, and when he .came
home at night he marched up to her
proudly, and said: 'Mamma, don't
you want to see my new folding cup?'
'Why, yes,, my son,' and he began to
empty his poc'kets in search, of his
new possession.
"The first article brought forth waa
a .handkerchief which looked like a
last year's bird nest. She took that
out of his hand, and, noticing some
rjA stains on U, asked : 'Did you
have the nosebleed?' 'No, mamma,
Jimmy did ,and he didn't have a
handkerchief, so I lent him mine.'
The next article was a rusty old
mouth organ, and In explanation the
boy said: 'This Is our band, and we
take turns "playing soldiers.' The
third article -was a dead mouse In a
fair state of prservatlon, and below
this was found the germless drinking
cup.

BEATS THE BATHS .
South Carolina has been greatly astounded by the census re
port, which shows that a majority of the farms of the state are
owned by negroes.
When the preliminary report to that effect was made some of
the South Carolina editors stoutly denied its accuracy, but the
complete figures show that the negroes own 99,969 of the 176,
180 farms of South Carolina, according to the 1910 census.
While the white farmer holds a larger acreage than the ne
groes, the black men of South Carolina have a majority of the
farms, having apparently realized their dreams of slave days
of some day owning "forty acres and a mule."
With the development of thecotton manufacturing industry
in the South much of the available white labor has been drawn
to the mills and factories, leaving the negro a freer hand as a
tiller of the soil, says the Nashville Tennessean.
The negro is a natural cotton grower, and a poor mill hand.
The good prices that have been obtained for cotton in the last
few years have enabled the thrifty negroes to get their small
farms, and pay for them, thus making them self-supporting
and prosperous, instead of a dead weight on the community, as
they are apt to become when they get away from the soil.
It should be a source f pride to the negro race that within
46 years after the Civil War the former slave population of
South Carolina includes within its ranks a substantial majori
ty of the actual land holders.
Welcome Words to Women

Women who tufTer with disorders peculiar to their

advioe of i phyaician of over 40 years' experience

careful consideration and ia regarded as sacredly

fully to Dr. Pierce what they would ahrink from
telling to their local physician. The local physician

without "an examination." Dr. Pierce holds that
these distasteful examinations are generally need
leas, and that no woman, except in rare cases,' should submit to them.

Has Made a Snendld Record In
on Exceedingly Short
Time.
Flint, Mich.,' Is becoming famous as
the home city of a new cure for
rheumatism which has been used
with such Buccess as . to . attract at
tention from all over the country.
The new medicine la called "Fuss."
1, C. Millard, . manufacturer of the
remedy, when seen at his residence,
525 Harrison street, Flint, Mich., ad
mitted that the new cure had made a
great record in a short time.
"We have had patients come here
from Mt CJernens and o'ther cities
where they had failed to get relief,"
he said, 'and -the medicine has cured
them. Fuss goes to the root of the
disease. It operates upon every por
tion of the body. It dissolves and
eliminates the poison from the sys
tem; It Invigorates the muscles, and
Umbers the stiffened Joints. ' It acta
upon the liver and kidneys, remov
ing, from them all Irritants, restor
ing them to perfect health and regu
larity." .
Among the large number of testi
monials, Mr. Millard exhibited the
following: C. K. Herndon, Maryvllle,
Mo., says: 'This may certify that I
have taken Fuss for rheumatism and
I believe It is the best remedy for
this disease in the market today. I
have been to Mt Clemens three times
and St Louis once within the past
15 years, but did not receive mueh
rellef. Uist October a friend told me
to try Fuss. 1 have taken three bot
tles this winter 'and 1 am now 100
per cent better than I have been for
15 years."

We have shown you how in our companies, labor and capital cooperate.
Some members of our companies put in both capital and labor, Some put
' in capital and no labor, Some put in labor and no capital, We who are
laborers are putting our money bacK into the business, as fast as we get
it, Most of those who put capital into the business, put their returns back
as fast as they get them, It pays, The man who puts in $100,00 has
- the same rate of profit, as the man who puts in $25,000,00, It provides
. a place where the man wiht small means can invest on the same basis as
the man with large capital. "
There is nowhere on earth, a commodity, which will legitimately yield
" so much for the capital invested, as the earth itself, The same principle
of economy, which makes the large business in other lines pay well, can
be and is applied in ours, We have told you how experts select our lands,
.These men take no chances. They analyze the soil and bore it at stated
"distances,
Outsiders cooperate with us principally -in two ways. First, Those who
have money, no matter whether the amount be large or small, secure with
us an interest in the business, thus securing the same rate of profit as we
secure from our farming and fruit raising operations, Certificates are
issued showing the amount each person invests,
Second,. The second plan by which those with .capital may cooperate"
with us is by buying adjacent property, In the case of fruit land the
property is of course worth more to us if the country is thickly populated,
The value of all land increases the more thickly populated it becomes,
and better it is improved, Therefore, if any one wishes to hold title to
the land, we sell fruit lands outright in tracts of five, ten and twenty acceS
anil upwards,' But we will not allow these lands. to be idle, A man must
-either start an orchard,' or we will sell the land to him at such prices that
we, can afford to plant trees ana care for the land for five years, After
five years, one of these orchards will sustain a family and pay returns in
addition, We cultivate the land by our cooperative methods for the first
five years, so that during the growing period those w-ho desire qn orchard,
. but do not feel they can leave the occupations 'at which they are engaged
until the orchard is able to support them, are in this way sure of having a
first class orchard, and are still able to earn more for themselves than they'
could possibly earn by simply caring for a five or ten-acre tract during its
first five years of growth,
We also . select and buy small farms which we sell to those who desire
to own their own land, -These farms are all situated near our own property,
. In addition to the foregoing, there is at the present time an opportunity
to secure some of the 7 percent Cumulative Prefered Stock of the A, C,
Bohrnstedt Company, which is as safe as a bond and has the added advan
tage of sharing in any additional dividends up to 10 per cent,'
A good thing always has its imitators and followers, Since the suc
cess of our company is assured various other companise have been formed
on similar lines, They all lack one thing, however, and to us it seems to
be the vital point, . This point may be expressed in one word, "Coopera
tion," That idea. more than anv other assures the success of our work.
WHAT WE DO IN A NUTSHELL: ' .
Summing everything up: What we do is cooperative farming and fruit
growing on a large scale, and we have organized companies so that any
one who has $100.00 or more to invest can at all times find an investment
with us in either our wheat or fruit companies, We also se4i to those who
desire to own their own farms or orchards,
