WAR.

The outbreak of war in Europe
has filled thoughtful men and women
all over the world with horror. With
no sufficient cause, in quarrel which
does not concern them, thousands of
men are to be led to the slaughter
of other thousands against whom
they have no grievance, whose faces
they have never seen until they are
brought together to kill each other.
Wives will be widowed, mothers left
childless, multitudes of children Or
phaned. Then, in addition to this
will be the vast numbers manned for
life, and the still larger numbers
morally corrupted. Generations to
come will be burdened with heavy
war taxes to pay the cost. The out
look is horrible to contemplate.

Lou S. Smith, assistant agricultur-

He is gathering up samples of corn
for the coming corn show at Walla
Walla, and doing some other work
in his line as he passes along. He is
travelling by motorcycle and this
gives him good opportunity to get
out where he pleases. Mr.. Smith

SOMETHING FOR ALL THE PEG.
PIE TO CONSIDER.

The great problem before the peo-
pie of Oregon is building up our state
industrially, so that there may be a
better home market for products and
better support for the industries we
now have. On top of this we have
the imperative duty of bringing about
conditions SO that there may be new
factories established and industries
developed. This includes every line
of human endeavor, from opening up
lew land for cultivation, opening up
stone quarries and brick yards, wool
en- mills, planning mills, public utilit-
les and railroads.
Grants Pass took the initiative and
voted bonds to start the construction
of railroad to Crescent City. Rose
burg is taking the same steps to start
railroad to the Coos Bay country.
These affirmative actions or enter
prising communities are not all that
is needed to get more railroad con-
struction in Oregon. The attitude of
hostility and the desire for radical
Legislation and administrative con-
troll of corporations has got to be
changed into a policy of friendly CO.
operation and encouragement if we
are to get large sums of money eX-
pended on construction work,
1t is not enough to encourage the
Made-in-Oregon campaign and ask
the people to purchase more of the
products of the home industry. If
we want the industries to flourish
and make it possible to get more
manufacturing enterprises in Oregon
we have got to reduce taxation, we
have got to quit enacting experiment
tai labor legislation, and we have got
to quit inventing new schemes to
throw1unjust burdens of taxation on
the men who happen to have a little
more property or capital than some
of the rest of us. We must encour-
age capital to invest in real estate,
industries, banks, public utilities and
merchandising.
With such program in the minds
and consciousness of the people, Ore
gon would resume her old time pros
perity and go ahead by leaps and
bounds. To establish faith in the fu-
turo of tbs commonwealth there
must be the heartiest cooperation
along constructive lines. Trying to
, accomplish everything by political
agitation and coercive legislation on
ly drives away industries and makes
the investment of capital in construc-
tion enterprises uphill work.
The thing for the people of Oregon
to consider is that while they are all
working to better their conditions in
Gividually, collectively they are asked
to enact new laws making it impos-
sible to accomplish that result.

Much profound discussion is found

Much profound discussion is found
in the newspapers of late on temper
ence and total abstinence. A Pen
dleton newspaper goes back in his
tory about 1000 years, and cites old
authorities to show that the people
inhabiting the British Isle have
drunk strong liquor through all these
centuries and still have advanced in
influence and power. From this it
concludes that because men have
had the habit of using acoholic bev-
erages for 1000 years they cannot be
weaned now, and that no particular
harm has been done any way. For
thousands of years men believed the
