TIME TO WIELD THE FLY SWATTER
It is always in order to "swat the fly," but just now
it should be the special concern of every person who wants
to make the world more healthful and more sanitary and
comfortable to live in. The fly is an unmitigated nuisance,
and the most dangerous disease germ distributor in exist
ence. A few years ago, it will be remembered that in Oregon
the state university extension department organized a
''swat the fly" campaign, which was not taken any too ser
iously by many people who believed that flies were so num
erous and mult plied so rapidly that it would be next to im
possible to appreciably diminish their number by swat
ting. Yet the fact remains that tnese nign-orow Dioiogisis
must have been right there have not been as many flies
in Oregon since that campaign as there were before. The
swatter and the trap and the cleaning up of breeding
places made tremendous inroads upon the fly population
of this part of the country.
The success of that campaign should be an incentive
to everybody for the fly has no friends to push a sim
ilar campaign of extermination, and the subject is timely,
now because the first crop of big offensive flies is filling
the air with their buzzing a warning of what will come
later if we fail to swat these first arrivals. If the swat
ter is kept busy now it will mean fewer flies by many bil
lions later in thi
A federal court decision filed in Los Angeles declares
that Hindus are "white", and eligible to naturalization in
the United States. It may sound foolish to the casual lis
tener for Hindus to be declared white when they are
brown ; but then, blackberries are red when they are.green.

After that they talked more quietly.
I had to listen very closely to catch
anything of what thoy were Haying.
But they seemed to be arguing. Neil
spoke more loudly thnn the other men,
and I would occasionally catch a sen
tence. "Others do the sutno thing, " was
one. "Why shouldn't I make a little
money silling shares in oil lands as
well as other men ?" was another. Then:
"You know us well as I do that oil
has been found on that tract. Where it
has been found once, and so near, it
is a (food gambling chance it may be
found on my land."
''Do you own that lundf" it was
Frederick who asked the question.
''1 have an option on it " Just then
there was a scraping of chains anil l!
age, i can tell you, and vou have got
to get ahead of the other fellow or
he will get ahead of you as sure as
shooting."
Mv uneasiness returned. Go' ahead
of the other fellow. It was such speeches
as this that worried me.
'Mint 10 'got ahead of the olher
fellow,' as you say, you dou't have to
do anything wrong." 1 made the state
ment, ius'.ead of asking a question.
"No, of course not! what put that
notion in your head?" his tono was
impatieut for the firs time.
''You did by what you said."
"Don't be silly. Just becauso I tell
you a mun has to be wide awake now

clusion that he must do something
wrong if lie is to succeed. Do be broad-
minded enough to think new methods

The Capital Journal doesn't like to be always knock
ing Portland, but the business and commercial interests
of that city do not care for anything but their own selfish
interests. That fact makes it impossible for us to refrain
from standing up for the rights of the rest of the state.
Here is another example of Portland greed just come to
light through the protest of the Western Oregon Tie and
Lumber Association. The tie order of 50,000,000 for
the railroads will all go to Portland and Washington mills,
fcinco discriminating freight iates in favor of Portland
luts the valley mills out of the competition. Portland
dominance over the commercial interests of the rest of
the state has enabled them to so juggle freight rate sched
ules that practically the only place an industry can exist
in the state is in Portland This tie contract only illus
tiates a fact that the Capital Journal has been trying for
many years to impress upon the people of the state so that
some steps might be taken to curb the selfishness and
gree d of Portland.
The Boy Scouts' drive for financial support tomorrow
should not be an appeal in vain. One dollar given to this
cause will bring good returns in the training the boys of
Salem will receive as members of this organization. How
many of us will ever miss the dollar that aids a good
cause?

THE TAXPAYER.
I pay the tax on barns and shacks, on all my goods
and chattels, on my tin boat and William goat, wax dul's
vnd baby rattles. 1 try to smile when from mv pile I thus
am harshly riven, when those round bones I earned with
groans are to officials given. I smile, ah. me ! But when I
see how public coin is wasted, the smile I wear won't linger
mere, unless it s glued or pasted. Once we were shocked
when congress talked of spending frugal mi'lions; but in
these days, to my amaze, our talk is all of billions. I pay
the tax on my two yaks, my warthog and canary; anil
though I smile to be in style, my heart is far from merry.
The war is done, with sword and gun we've squelched the
Teuton races, and 'twould be sense to cut expense in forty
thousand places. I pay the tax on cribs and stacks, and
try to do it stoutly, but that the trend to waste may end,
I hope and pray devoutly. My Aunt Jane needs some
widow's weeds, my grandad needs a brier, but I can't get
fuch doodads yet, with taxes going higher.

hud miid, Ni'il hud u mueh ' right to
make money as other men. If oil hud
been found, wnan't he ulnn justified in
thinking that it would again be found
on land evidently so neiir other weiiat
then he had told Frederick tlnit he had
an option on tho hind. Why in the
world wasn't he all righ' in his bu.t
ncss ideas? They seemed Bound to nie,
yet Mr. Frederick seemed to think
otherwise had even tnlked of 'jail."
shuddered as I recalled his words:
"I tell von. Forties, thoy could put
you in jail for what you liavo done."
Then; "For Oodli sake. man. ston
it!"
Would a man of his, Frederick's type
say such a thing without having a good
reason or what he thought one! I
felt sure'he was speaking honestly, yet
like ninny other wives I gave .Neil
eredit for being a better business man
knowing a bit more about making
money thun olher men. "Mr. Freder
ick didn't understand," I thought ns I
undressed. Neil would bo up soon, and
he hated to see me Kitting up so late,
especially since baliy nunc.
It wns ti"itily an hour-Inter when
Neil eiiine upntnirs. 1 was awake and
so snt up in bed to talk w ith him while
he undressed.
''What in the world were you men
quarreling about " I asked.
''We weren't ipiiiireliiig. "
"Vou talked awfully loud."
"I'ethnpH."
"Who is Mr. Itlnckf"
'One of the company how did you
know he w.is hercf
'! henrd the name when I passo
the door."
I Neil looked sharply at me, but -said
itulhiii". At l'iit I was incliii' d 'o teli ,
hiin what I hud heard, what Mr. Fred-1
I click had said. Then I looked at him-1
and I .put couldn't. 1 could not insult
I him by repealing what I had over I
heard, lie looked so far removed from1
la win who would do anything I ho least
I bit crooked, that I felt myself blush
and was glad of the half light so that
he would not see it.
''What else did you hear?" the ques
tion wns so unexpected. I started.
Should I tell himf He liiimelf had
given me the opportunity. Then oncrt
more as I looked at him j found it im
possible to accuse him of anything
wroni;, mid hastily prevaricated:
"I came upstairs, you know; so
while I heard talking, i was impossible
to tell what you were saying."
''That means that you triedf"
"I did not stop on the s'airn, if that
is whnt you mean. I came directly up."
Again I had evaded the truth.
'Well, we had it hot and heavy.

a thousand years behind the times in
