To a mere onlooker it appeal's the complaints about the u.se of duidum bullets h a case of "gaining at a gnat and swallow ing a camel." The only complaint against the dumdum bullets is that they spread when they hit any thing and consequently make a bigger hole where they leave a man's body than where they enter it. The complaining parties in the meanwhile droj steel arrows from aeroplanes a mile in the air, regardless of vhom they may kill. They are dropped in the cities where the chance of killing women and children is far greater than of killing a combatant. The same complainants are firing shells loaded with a terrific explosive that does not leave a larger hole in the poor devil who is struck, where they leave his body than when they enter it, for the sim ple reason that they do not leave any of his body for ex amination. They use the bayonet, which makes a three cornered hole in'the other fellow that is just the opposite of the dumdum bullet. since the hole is larger on the en trance side. However, this seems like an immaterial mat ter to the fellow who is killed, unless he is especially "finicky." The dumdum was first made in India and is simply a soft-nosed bullet sometimes hollowed at the Tack, some times with its nose split, and as it was made by the unciv ilized Hindus, it was bv the tribunal at The Hague tabooed in "civilized wartare. I here seems to he no other sane reason why it should not be used, since it is not nearly so deadly as most of the weapons or missiles used by real "civilized" folks in killing each other. ' After all, when a man is dead on the field of battle what does it matter to him whether his life ebbed out through the hole where the bullet went out, or slipped away through the wound where the bullet went in? It is not the dumdum bullet that is ''uncivilized and atrocious;" it is the war itself. Dr. Withycombe is evidently not an ardent admirer of the initiative and referendum. At a banquet given by the Portland Commemal Club recently, in discussing matters of interest to Oregon from a political viewpoint, he said: "Hut under all this new tangled government we hear so much about lately the taxes are $1) per capita." Wonder if the good doctor can devise a means whereby the taxes will be decreased. Maybe he thinks the governor has bomething to do with creating or keening down taxes. If he should read up on the duties of the legislature. The Pennsylvania Protective Union is accused of spend ing large sums to aid Penrose in his fight for the senator ;hip from their state. The union cheerfully admits spend ing the money in the campaign, but insists it was not done to aid Penrose, but to further the principles of protective tariff. "A rose would smell as sweet by any other name " and so, by the way, would hydrogen gas. It.md Rivir folks, so the (.lacier savs. are wishing most devoutly the effect of the importation of Chinese eggs was just as the Oregonian asserts it is. Somehow in spite or China eggs and the clucking of the Oregonian editor, the price of egp makes them impossible for the average family. Senator Burton talked nearly twelve hours in filibus tering against the river and harbor bill. Some time in the not very remote future the voice of Senator Burton will not be heard at all in the senatorial chamber. President Wilson acted promptly in protesting against Turkey arbitrarily abrogating her treaties under which foreigners were guaranteed certain rights. However, it should not be overlooked that the example of ignoring treaties is an European habit. President Wilson is following the "watchful waiting" policy with regard to the problem of getting the warring nations to talk peace and it looks as though it might win. The going back to Mexico of many old families who left at the beginning of Huerta's reign is pretty good evidence that they think Mexico is at last to have peace. One of the things beyond all understanding is that! w hen the war correspondents send a letter to some other i point in oi uer iu nave tneir muii luxvvaiueu vwiuuuk un- eorship, they never tell anything at all in the way of news, or that would not be passed by the censor unless he ob jected to its trashiness. Most of this kind of stuff is sent evidently just to practice up on "fine writing." When Father Kicard picked out the weather for Sep tember he forgot to look at the many county fair dates, or else the fair managers were remarkably poor weather forecasters. It will be noted, though, that Father Ricard hit the weather business dead center so far. As he prom ises rain for state fair week, let us prayerfully hope that his one mistake applies to that date. Among the American industries liable to be helped by the war is that of the woolgrowers. That the flocks of Europe will be drawn upon heavily to feed the armies is undoubted; and that this will result in a wool shortage Is a certain sequence. Fifty-cent wool may yet be a possi bility, and that the pjice will remain high for several years seems also a certainty. Uncle Sam is not in position to pass judgment on the complaints of the European nations that each is guilty of "atrocities." The evidence so far is the allegations of the plaintiff to which the defendants have f iled only an ans wer anil a general denial. No witnesses have been heard and no documentary evidence offered. Until this is done no verdict can be reached, and this will not be until after the war. Politicians will do well to note the fact that the Amer ican voter has arrived at that state of advancement where he prefers to vote for straight .candidates rather than for a straight ticket, and this does not apply entirely to the standpatters, either. The initiative and referendum have knocked several kinds of spots out of politics and poli ticians. William Watson, the English poet laureate, has written a poem entitled "Liege," in which he extols the bravery of the Belgians. The subject is a great one, but the same cannot be said of the poem. In fact, if the survivors read it, they will probably regret they did oot fall with their comrades. Sir Edward Grey Said to Have Kept From Public Ger many's Offer of Peace While our imports have fallen off heavily, it is noted that the English exports have also fallen off in the sum of $100,000,000 during the month of August. At the same time it is well to remember that these exports will have to be made good by some other people, and "we are the people. That six days battle in France has gotten in aboul; the same condition as the two negroes who were eating pos sum on a wager. They had both eaten all placed before them and the umpire solemnly remarked: "It am a tie. I )e fust man dat gags loses de kittle." "Standing shoulder to shoulder" sounds patriotic, but that story about the burial of the dead soldiers on the battlefield at Aisne, where they "lie shoulder to shoulder," is different. tae In beforp iiton-y THE ROUND-UP LADD & BUSH, Bankers Established 1SG3 Capital $500,000.00 Transact a general bankinf business Safety Deposit Boxes SAVINGS DEPARTMENT (Mi II irk man ahi t and Killed hi brother in luw.

THE EASIEST WAY TO EjlDJAHDRUFF Stop Falling Hair and Itching Scalp. There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This destroys it en tirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most, if not all, of Jour dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff yon may hare. You w ill find, too, that all itching ami digging of the scalp will slop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feet a hundred timet better. If you want to keep your hair lookin? rich, do bv all means get rid of dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair so quickly. It not only starves the hair and makes it fall out. but it makes it stringy, straggly, dull, dry. brittle and lifeless, and every body notices it. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, andl four ounces is all you will need. This simple remedy has never been known to fail.
