Phone Main 82. "BUY A BALE J. S. Bache & Co. have issued a circular headed: "Buy a Bale of Cotton." This calls attention to the particularly hard luck the South is playing in owing to the European war and the consequent closing of its markets. A bale of cotton weighs approximately 500 pounds, and as the mills in the United States cannot handle much more than half the crop, there is a surplus of several million bales. The cotton dealers are unable to carry this tremendous stock and the growers cannot hold it, as they must have money to live on and also to plant another crop. In view of this a movement has been started, by which every person who can afford it is asked to buy one bale of cotton. The cotton is to and kept until the war is over factories. President Wilson has given it his endorsement and has a bale in the warehouse. Cotton does not deteriorate with oge and the bale will cost not otic movement, a helping of those of our fellow citizens vho have run up against it through no fault of their own, and whose surplus crop, made so by the war, is estimated to be worth in the neighborhood of $400,000,000. It is to hear part of this burden and grower that every citizen who. can spare the amount is asked to invest $50, or the amount necessary to buy one hale. Basche & Co. offer to purchase the cotton for any one sending them the price, free of charge. The ware-1 house receipt will be forwarded by them. It is supposed the cotton can be sold directly the war ends, and while great profits are not looked for it is thought the prices will give the buyers a fair return on their money, and under any circumstances except a very long continuance of the war the loss, if any, will be trifling, while the in dustry will be kept from wrecking. It is pretty hard to follow the lines of reasoning when a strongly partisan paper criticises the administration for making a deficit in our revenues by reducing the tariff. As a matter of fact, if the tarff had not been reduced, the loss of revenues would have been greater than they arc. The democrats reduced them some, but if they had not done so, the customs duties would have fallen off just as much more as the difference of the two tariffs would amount to. The American people pay all the expenses of running the government whether the money is raised hy tariff or otherwise. It is only a question of who pays and what they pay on. The most disastrous shot ever fired from a pistol was that of June 28, fired by, Gabriel Prinzip, a school boy, and which killed Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne. What its ultimate results will be no man can tell; but it has already cost a hundred thou sand or more lives, and the war has only started. How many millions of orphans it will make and how many homes make desolate is beyond all human guessing. It is safe to say, however, that no shot before ever caused a fourth part of the damage this will have accomplished be fore the end is reached. As a bit of advice to American girls of a certain class, we would suggest that the war may cause a big drop in the price of European titles. Just at present, it looks as though some from Austria would be on the bargain counter. Senator LaFollette is said to be arranging to make the race for the presidency again in 1916. Nothing like tak ing time by the forelock, but in this case it might be well for the senator to .get a grip on the mane and tail also. The astronomers tell us that Jupiter has another satel lite, the ninth, although it cannot be seen with a telescope. The news is not of an exciting character, and will hardly take the place of the news from the seat of war. Senator Borah says he is utterly dissatisfied with the Wilson administration. He and Teddy, however, are far from making a majority of the American people.

It is a patri lighten the load of the cotton So far none of the warring nations has accused the other of feasting on their victims. About everything else has been charged except making each battle furnish its own "funeral baked meats." Germany evidently thought it had gone about the limit in fighting for Austria, and when the latter wanted to borrow money besides, it stretched the kaiser's friendship almost to the breaking point. The Oregon Journal Friday devoted considerable space to the state fair. Among other things was a picture of the grandstand and track and another showing a bunch of the prize-winning cattle. Mr. Lassen celebrated Sundav bv havinp- two emotions. This probably because it was the egg laying business, umna or otners. Japan has taken the Philippines so many times that even Hobson can no longer stir the most excitable Ameri can to the point of thinking about it. Whether or not a battle is decisive depends on which side tells the story and also which gets licked. Oregon's Industrial School for Girls Nears Completion Thirty thousand dollars lias been ex pended on the stt ami building of the Oregon Slate Industrial School for (lirls, which is ni'ii l i ii n completion, three miles southeast of Salem, near the sc hool for the feeble minded. It is ex pected it will be occupied by the mid dle of November. The site will mark the location of n series of buildings erected for shelter in" delinquent girls and the present fifty room structure is the 1"h"i n x njf of a cot time plan of buildings for a per manent institution. An appropriation of ."),f)OM annually. during the years of 1013 ami 101 t, was: made by the Oregon legislature for the purchase of grounds, building anil main tenance of a permanent institution fori the detent ion of delinquent girls be-' tween the ages of 12 nnd -'." years. At present the quarters are crowded, all classes of girls are put together but as the new institution progresses, the younger, incorrigible-, ami honor pupils, will be segregated. The site contains fifty acres nnd plans have been made for the erection of four more buildings. A Beautiful Home. The present institution was ere tci, by an act passed at ho 1013 legislative session.

An appeal for renewed energy and far reaching eutcrptise on the part of American merchants ami manufacturer in order to meet the extraordinary de mands that are being made on this na tion because of the Knropeiiii war is made a striking hill page advertise ment in the ( hicago Tribune. It is an appeal that carries an admonition which Americans must Heed if we are to se cure the full advantage of the remark able opportunities that are being thrown within our grasp as a result of economic conditions in war-torn Ku rope. It follows: It is time for a new declaration of economic and industrial independence. Kach year we import, chiefly from !leriiiany, chemical, drugs, dyes and medicines to the value of neailv .Mini, 0110,1100. .Many of our factories have become dependent on this C.eiinaii supply. Now that trade with (iermauy is entirely stopped, some of these factories have begun to close; retail prices of drugs I medicines have multiplied uianv fold. Is the American eh 'mist, scientist ami inventor so impotent that he will see thousunds of workmen thrown into idleness because he cannot or will not make the needed compounds? Are there no great American manu facturing chemists who can duplicate the (Ionium drugs and medicines.' Kach year we Fend 'to France, which is now calling its last man to the bat tle line, nearly $100,01111,01 Mi to pay for flowers, feathers, bonnets, jewelry and silks for the adornment of our women. Are there no artists, no designers, no silk mills, no lace and ribbon factories in the I'nited States which can supply all this vast demand mid keep this $100,000,00(1 at home.' May not one safely call on the pa triotism of American women to encour age our artists ami our artisans.' Will they not patronize them, if given a fair chance.' Why shall we not make our own fine qualities of cotton cloth, which have been coining fiom the looms of devas tated Helgiuin ami struggling Frame.' Are there not plenty of inineial springs in the I'nited States.' Must mercury, for instance, jump from $:i."i to $lou n flask, while there are great undeveloped mines of mercury neie at nonie; Is there any reason why the woolen mills of Massachusetts ' should not weave as fine cloth as any F.nglish or Scotch loom New markets wanted,' The greatest ami most profitable market in the world is the Ironic market, from the supply of which Kurope has been al most cut off. There is right here at home u trade of at least half a billion dollars annually, which it remains for the American inaiiiit'.ict.n er to capture. It is more than a trade opportunity it is a patriotic duty to keep he mill's ami factories of the I'nited Slates rim ing ami to vastly increase their output. With all Kuropo engaged in destruc tion, it is time for this country to push constructive work to the utmost. f.et us by all menus increase our foreign trade; let lis do everything we can to supply the growing' needs ot South America. Hut that will necessar ily be a slow business. Some arrange ment for a mutual interchange of cred its seems to be necessary before we can lo business at all with South America. The home market is all around ns. The demand is immediate and pressing. We have the necessary financial ma chinery. The call on the patriotism, the cour age and the vision of the American manufacturer and business man is in sistent. The call upon the patriotic nntronaee of the American housewife is even more insistent. To offset the destructive influences of the European war upon the indus trial and economic lite ot th.' United States, the business men of the countrv should speedily nnd courageously take the necessarv action. Corns Comes Off as Easy as You Please "Gets-It" Being Used by Millions!
