THE DOLLAR OF OTHER DAYS
Some of the editors in the state would like to advise
their farmer subscribers whether or not to hold their
wheat for higher prices but fear evidently to risk their
reputations as prophets. Here is a fair sample from the
La Grande Observer: "From every part of the Grande
Ronde valley comes the statement that wheat will be helc
for higher prices. In most instances men who produce
wheat can afford to hold it without inconveniencing them-

Attorney Tooze Tells
Abut That Filing Fee
That is a big kink which has developed in the British
pond, and bigger ones are soen in the German mark, the
French franc, the Russian ruble, and the Italian lira, but,
bless you, the American dollar has seen worse days than
any of them.
Here are a few items from a receipt given by Jacob
Opn on St. Patrick's Day, 1781. He kept tavern at
Kaston, Pa., during the Revolution:
"To one bowl of punch, $:!0.
"To one grog, $8.
"To one washing, $).
"To 21 quarts of oats, $02.
"To 12 meals, $200.
"To lodging, $10"
There was also "one nip of toddy at $10."
Sad days were those for our forefathers when Amer
ican money was so raggedy 'and cheap that a morning
bracer left no change in a ten-spot.
But plenty of men and women can recall the premium
on gold during our civil war. Our Northern money was
than far more depreciated than that of any belligerent in
Europe.
Considering the stupendous cost of the present war
which England has undertaken to finance for her Allies,
the remarkable thing is not the G or 8 per cent shrinkage
in her money, but its amazing stability.

teachers are employed and the school enrollment is sev
