TUB DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL Is the only newspaper In S.ilem wrhoae ctrculatlon It guaranteed by the Audit bureau of Ctrculationi PAROLING PRISONERS A BUSINESS. Charges that a ring exists for the sale of paroles to prisoners at the Oregon state prison have been laid be fore the Prisoners' Aid Society, of Portland with the result that one case of alleged bribery is under investiga tion, while it is hinted that others may exist. One guard, has been dismissed for complicity in a plot that it is al leged was traced directly to him by the investigators. The specific charges are that M. S. lrvin, sentenced from Douglas county in 1915 for larceny from a dwelling, re cently mailed his personal check f o $200. to an intermed iary in Portland for the purpose of transmission to the discharged guard, and then to a "higher up" who was to negotiate Irvin's release. Districr Attorney Evans, of Multnomah county, Attorney General Brown and War den Murohv at once besran an investigation during which it is asserted the guard confessed the money was intend ed to secure the release of lrvin on parole. He declined, however, to state how this was to be effected, or to whom the money was to go. His dismissal followed sometime last week. While the investigation is still in progress nothing further has been discovered that has been made public. Governor Withycombe says it is a frame-up to discredit a certain parole official, and while he mentions no names it is presumed he alluded to Joe Keller. It is claimed lr vin not long ago was left a goodly sum of money. At the same time it is pointed out that he had been paroled be fore and violated his parole. It is asserted Joe Keller is opposed to granting him a second parole on this account holding he is not entitled to it. There is nothing to show that Keller was in any way implicated in the matter, but the combination above mentioned causes some of the sus picious ones to put two and two together and arrive at the conclusion that Keller will at least be put on the wit ness stand by the investigators. KAISER CHANGES HIS TONE. That was some trio of notables that watched our boys run the Germans cut of the St. Mihiel salientGen erals Pershing and Petain and Secretary Baker. And the Yankees did the job in just foity-eight hours, about as easily as one of those jack rabbit drives are staged in the sage-brush country. Hunting Huns can no longer be classed as big game sport. On receipt of the war news yesterday corn in Chi cago dropped a cent a bushel. This means the value of the crop dropped $.10,000,000. ' The French are taking their turn at smashing the German line today, while the Americans are herding their prisoners back to the rear and gathering up the spoils of victory.

The kaiser i ntalking to the workers at the Krupp works took a very different tone than he usually uses. He pleaded with them rather than commanded, and even forgot to state definitely what God intended to do, say- int? instead "it is inconceivable that God will not stand firmly with us." He also insisted they were fighting for their country, which shows the kaiser still imagines ne is th whole country, for he knows that all that is keeping the war going is his and his war lords' deceiving the peo ple into the belief they are fighting for their homes, while he knows they are fighting only to perpetuate the Hohen zollern dvnastv. How the German people can be so camouflaged by the Prussian gang is one ot the modern mysteries, iney are told the allies would take their country, and drive them out. This is so preposterous a proposition that it is inconceivable that an intelligent people could for a mo ment believe it. There are in Germany in round numbers (55,000,000 people and in Austria-Hungary about 47,000, 000. If the allies wanted to take these countries they would have to move the present population out, and a glance will show that the moving of nearly 120,000,000 people would be some job. Besides some country would have to be found to move them to and this would prove another big task. The German people will be left in pos session of their country per force, no matter how the war ends. The allies expect this but they do not expect the 120,000,000 Teuton people to be left under the control of the Hohenzollerns, the Hapsburgs and Prussianism. That is the part of the German country they are after and that part they will get. The kaiser and his crowd will have to go, that is the only solution of the present dispute, the only acceptable ending of the war. I wonder how the kaiser feels when he recalls the foolish spiels he made a year ago? He laughed to scorn this country's might; he wouldn't walk the floor at night for such a phantom foe. We had no perfect war machine ; our boys would all be raw and green, too awkward for a scrap; his weir drilled me,n would even think it fun to chivy them with sword and gun, and push them, off the map. And "even if we formed a host, according to our idle boast, how would we cross the sea? His submarines would lie in wait, and send us diving to our fate, down where the mermaids be. "My aunt!" the kaiser cried, "my word! Americans are too absurd! I cannot help but scoff ! Just let them butt into the fray, and 1 will show them, right away, just where they will get off!" Our sol dier boys are over there, they wave Old Glory in the air, they cannot be denied; and every time they see a Hun they make him 'drop his tools and run asd hunt a place to hide. I wonder what the kaiser thinks when he beholds his well drilled ginks before the Yankees fall? I wonder how thekaiser feels when his brave soldiers show their heels and hike for timber tall? to EWIFE By JANE PHELPS ''Well, there may bo something in what you say about a lawyer's needing to live in a good locally.

This will make the total registration above fourteen million. This is still worse news for the kaiser, but a million or two makes no difference here at home.
