PROSPERITY DUE NEXT MONTH. All winter and spring business prophets have been forecasting good times to come throughout the entire country "rx-iore long" or "when the reconstruction per iod is over." Now comes one of them and assigns a defin ite date .to the expected boom. He is Richard Spillane, a signed. Bowles, therefore, contended that all the blame should rest upon the president if the industry should close and Mr. Bowles and other beneficiaries of the gigantic shipbuilding graft woud have to' engage in some legitimate business or work. Mr. Bowles and his kind profess to be lieve that the government ought to keep up the shipyard graft, where men are overpaid and at the same time taught to shirk, and material is bought for fabulous prices in order that the builders' 10 per cent profits, guaranteed by the government, may grow beyond all reason. Bowles naturally wants that system continued, and the Oregon responsible writer on business and finance, and he saysjian, which demantfe investigation of all other branches the stage is -now all 'set and the actors are ready for a great revival of the wonder play, "Prosperity," and it is to open in May. "Nothing but a wholly unexpected and malign de velopment can postpone it," he says. He finds signs pointing to a flood cf business for the basic steel industry that will test the capacity of fur naces and mills. There will be heavy demand equally at home and abroad. The farm industry,. bigger still, and still more promising; the wheat crop will be "monumen tal", and the money return to the producers "unparallel led," and that money will circulate through the whole business system giving life to every part of it. With steel and agriculture 'prosperous, everything will follow. Builders have been hesitant, but architects &nd engineers have been busier than ever with their plans, and construction along many lines will soon start with a rush. The signing of the peace treaty, which now seems destined to occur in May, will be the "start" signal. Many of us have been worrying about the unemploy ment problem. This expert gives it as his sober judg ment that "it will not be surprising, if within, the next three months, the practical trouble in America should be the shortage of labor." A CONSTRUCTIVE TUNISHMENT. cf war work, is afraid to have the probe directed toward the greatest graft of allthe shipyards of Portland and other northwest cities. If shipbuilding is to continue it ought to be as a legitimate industry the workers who dodged into it to escape the draft, as well as the capital ists who robbed the treasury in the name of patriotism ought to be driven out of it. The shipyards are the black' est spots in the war record of this country. A Seattle local of the boilermakers union has decided to agitate for a six-hour day in the shipyards. Like as not, loafing eight hours a day in one small shipyard does get irksome, but we can well imagine that the Seattle em ployers will relieve them of that responsibility about the time the proposed "agitation" starts.,',, , It appears that "booze" is not the only thing that does not mix well with gasoline. A party of young joyriders Sunday ran down and killed an aged man near Tigard because the driver was paying more attention to the girl beside him than to the road ahead. The Oregoniarf asserts that the Capital Journal is criticising that paper and Senator Chamberlain. Don't that pair look queer yoked up together in politics? Well, the Monroe Doctrine has been adopted by the League, but the Japanese orphan seems to have few friends. A California wrong-doer has recently been sentenced to five years of good citizenship, which is another way of saying he has boon put on probation. The judge de cided in tavor of leniency because the offender, through all his shiftless wanderings and crimes, never failed to provide for his aged and dependent mother. That tic looked like one which might lead him back to a useful, law-abiding life. For five years this man must not leave the two coun ties in which hh home and woik lie; he must not renew associations with the evil companions under whose in fluence he had fallen; he must not drink, gamble or in any way indulge in avoidable idleness; he must report to the probation officer once a month. The oddest thing about the sentence is that the man must advance $25 out of his first earnings in a steady job to be held as part of a vtiu") i'l fill' finnrf li run-in r cliniilrl lin fnil ti livn im fn ....

I knew how strictly economical slio was, haw little she thought or cared for show of any kind. 1 wondered if she would be inquisitive and if she would either hear or guess at the reports concerning .Neil. When I read her letter to Neil he looked anything but pleased. "It rather a bore having her just now," he said, ''but I suppose there is no help for it. If 1 hadn't visited her I never should hi ve met you, and she wns awfully good to me then.
