"BET YOUR WHOLE PILE"
It is related that in the days before the Union .and
Central Pacific a passenger from New York to California
by way of the isthmus on the first day out was leaning
over the taffrail and communing with himself something
after this fashion: "I'll bet I'm going to be sick. I'll bet
a quarter I'm going to be sick."
Then after a gasp or two and a shaking of his head:
'Til bet a dollar I'm going to be sick."
Another shake or two of his head and an indrawing of
his stomach and he groaned: "I'll bet ten dollars I'm go
ing to be sick." , , ...
An old sea dog wno naa oeen an amusea listener iu me
steady raising of the bets, gave the sorry looking sport a
me to suggest, stranger, that you bet your whole pile.
You're going to win."
The point of this story lies in its application, and that
is to those who are studying about buying a liberty bond.
It is a dead sure thing that we're going to win, and the
fellow who has the money, if wise, will bet his whole pile
on it.

a stroke of business for herself. This she will not be abje

that it was the Y. M. C. A. that did

On Commercial Street
Mrs. Edyth Tozier Weatherred will not be re-appointed
a member ot tne state iair ooara, it is semi-omciauy given
out.v Of course not, because Mrs. Weatherred is a demo
crat. and Governor Withycombe carries partisan politics
into every branch of the state's service, and the democrats
are not recognized anywnere. ine state iair Doara is a
partisan machine, the state highway commission is solidly
republican, the state educational boards nave been re
publicanized until the limit of the law has been pressed,
and every employe about any state institution must show
straight oartv credentials or eet out. This course of
Governor Withycombe's is in striking contrast to the
course of the national democratic administration in the
present crisis. This is evidenced by the fact that nearly
all war activities in Oregon have been entrusted to repub
licans, and partisanship has apparently not been in the
least considered. Oregon democratic citizens and tax
payers receive no more consideration from the Withy
combe administration than if they were alien residents
and not so much as aliens if they happen to hail from the
governor's native land of Canada.
