A NATION OF WEALTH The total wealth of the United States is estimated at a hundred and eighty-eight billions of dollars, and it is figured out that the wealth of the land has about doubled in n A Linn o nl n Y r 1 f TVwi rrtnn f fi i trnf i rn r f f Vi ta zii t uvvauv. uuvt u nuu. inv- jvi wun va WHO PCt'lSilGCi in lUG (JlVll Vs wealth is in real property and improvements which, taxed 0f families of Americans? Herman Suderman, the German poet, is saying that war is to cause the heroic to supplant the esthetic in the world's ideals and action. There are - many who assert that war develops higher qualities in mankind. i3ut iacis ao noc sustain tms quality. Degeneration of population as result of war is forcibly brought to public attention at this time by the discovery of the fact that the boys born in Great Britain during the Boer war are noticeably inferior to those who proceeded them in the schools. In Janan the vounc men hnm rlnn'mr fVio wov wth China are just coming of military age, and are found to icwer in numoer in proportion to population and in ferior physically and mentallv to the ing them. The United States was saved from the full effects of this degeneracy in birth caused by the Civil war by the great flood of immigration which has been pouring into the country. In many sections of the south, however, the t-utxi, is very nouceaDie. A Galley o Fun1 A RIFT IN THE LUTE. I love to see the sunshine A-playing on the wall; I love to see the little kids That do not care at all; . I love to see the green, green grass And vegetables grow, And watch the birds and buds and things And think of all I know. Then when the husky sun Is high, Enflamed Its brutal breath, I love to grasp tho graceful birch, And beat a rug to death! DR.W.A. COX h ! w PAINLESS DENTIST 303 State Street SALEM, ORE. - Whew! Oh! .

When the efFect of the present war on the population ot hurope is considered the prospect is appalling. Europe cannot recoup he.rself by immigration, as did the United Mates, and the outlook opens upon the growing ascend ency of the Asiatic peoples. It was the EmDeror of fiprmanv wlm .f niii tion to the "Yellow peril." But war is doing far more to ..... wmu ttiiwmig mat yenow races can do for themselves. The editor of Coryalhs Times-Gazette is a new man in the state. If he had been here longer he would not waste space attacking Senator Chamberlain. He would have learned that nothing is accomplished by it, since Oregon voters never pay any attention to it when election time comes around.

The railroads with equipment run up about sixteen billions. Manufactured products amount to fifteen billions. In furniture, carriages and automobiles, etc., the folks have eight billions tied up. Over six billions represent the value of live stock, and the same sum represents the value of manufacturing machinery, etc. The street railways run up four billions. Some hundred thousand above that sum represent the value of the clothing and adornment worn. Agricultural products run up five billions. A fact that should not be overlooked is that the doub ling of this country's wealth in fifteen years has been brought about largely by the increase in land values, a fact thflt is likolv tn slnrh snmp sirriimpnf nnrl flicfiiicQinr! of a question that has long been discussed. The increase in Alll 1 'if irtn Vina lin A n Atrt ...ilL tUn ! i V. uuiuiiun nao iiavi a uvai tu uu vvini me use ill Lliu value of land which accounts for much of the increase in the country's wealth in the last fifteen years. If your memory runs back that many years you can recall some thing as to values and conditions, and if you have been looking about to secure a few acres near to town you know something of the increase in value of acres easy of access. The growth of the cities and villages has done much to help swell the country's wealth. They're coming over the sea to borrow here, something unheard of in the history of borrowing and floating loans and securities and floating them without securities. This country, in spite of the predictions of calamity made by the politicians who thought they couldn't live without government and privilege, is the money lender of the time. But it is not wealth that exalts a nation. Wealth can serve a nation; that is all. It does not of itself make a nation great. The United States was great when it was comparatively poor, and that for the reason that patriot ism ran high and made for sterling citizenship. With all our national wealth we should not overlook the fact that this country's place among the nations and its strength depend not solely upQn that. The McMinnville News Reporter calls attention to a matter that is worthy of more than passing attention in the present world-wide crisis: "The American diplomatic corps has often been assailed. It was jissin-tpd ihut it- u-no made up largely of political "lame ducks," "wealthy but! innocuous campaign contributors," politicians worthy of iKung rewarded."
