BROWN Is QUALIFIED.

The Oregonian sees in George M.
Brown qualifications for the office OF
attorney-general that are not to be
overlooked. 1t says editorially:
"Mr. Brown has had long and wide
experience as a prosecuting attor-
ney in one of the most important
judicial districts of Oregon and has
served the state zealously and ex-
clusively for eighteen years. He has
tried many cases involving liberty
and life, with great benefit to the i'm
partial and correct administration OF
Justice, and he has besides had in
charge great variety of important
general matters, involving public IN
te,rests. in the several counties OF his
district. All who have had direct
dealings with Mr.. Brown testify to
his unusual legal ability and single
minded zeal and industry; and his
reputation generally throughout the
state as true example of the devoted
and useful public servant is most en-
viable.
"Mr. Brown s fitness for the office
of attorney general is not questioned
anywhere. The state has an oppor-
tunity by his nomination and election
to reward faithful public service and,
far more important to secure as its
attorney general a man who is ad-
mirably fitted for the place. 1t is
an opportunity for the state. On
that ground chiefly the Oregonian
commends him to the voters"
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1914-05-12
OCCUPATIONS OF WOMEN.

Out of the 305 gainful occupations
of the United States there are only
EIGHT in which women do not appear.
In all the other 297 thele are accred-
tied representatives of the coming
sex to the number of 100000. The
eight occupations in which women do
not appear fall into two classes, In
the first of these classes the absence
of women is due to the tyranny OF
men. There are no women soldiers IN
the United States army. There are
no women sailors in the United States
navy. There are no women marines
in the navy. And there are no wo-
men firemen in the municipal fire de-
partments of American cities. All
this is simply because women have
been ruled out. With different reg
ulations there might be different re-
suits. In Sweden there is fire de-
partment in which women are fire.
quently enrolled. And the lighting
done by the women at the siege OF
Saragossa in Spain during the Ma
poleonic wars has always stood as
spectacular and sufficient proof OF
feminine valor. In the remaining
four of the eight womanless occu-
pations in this country the absence
of woman cannot be so readily ex-
planned away. 1t must be simply due
to feminine neglect that at the time
of the last census there were no wo-
men apprentices and helpers to root
ers and skaters, no women helpers 70
brass-workers, and no women street
car drivers. The next census Will
probably repair this defect. There Is
no reason why women should not
enter these four trades. Already
they can be found in trades which are
similar but more difficult. Only four
occupations. therefore, are today be-
vond the reach of women in the UNI
ted States. They can not be federal
soldiers, federal sailors, federal mar
ines. or municipal fremen. Every
where else they have knocked and
have been admitted.

FLY A MENACE.

Although "swatting flies'' has fur
nished the humorists of the country
with new material for their jokes
the anti-fy campaign is not joke
by any means. Even these sad-faced,
long haired humorists appreciate the
Importance of it. Their bright, sharp
way of turning a laugh out of this
very important work, is in itself the
best indication of its importance.
Until anything is important enough
to find its way into the joke column,
it is not important enough to attract
National attention.
The anti-fy campaign has done
both. The scientists have demon
strated beyond the slightest shade Of
doubt that flies breed disease. Ii
flies confined their attention solely
to the sugar bowl and the crstard
pie; if they were born, lived and died
at the garbage can, there would be no
serious objection to them. They
would then be merely pests, rather
than plaques. But since flies are
born in filth, fatten on filth, and
make only side excursions to the
sugar bowl, with early morning trips
to the slumber couches of perfectly
healthy people, they are menace.
Upon their tiny feet are carried the
germs of innumerable diseases. The
only good fly is the dead fly. 1t is
impossible always to keep out OF the
home the flies that seek admittance.
Be the windows and doors screened
to the limit, there will still be flies
on the inside. But it is possible to
eliminate to a large extent the fly
nuisance. We should not treat the
anti-fy campaign as joke. 1t is
serious matter and every precau-
ton should be taken to eliminate
this daily peril.

PUBLIC DEBT OF OREGON.

In a bulletin issued by the census
bureau of the Department. Of Com
merce it is said that in the q years
last passed the public Indebtedness
of the state has decreased materially
for each $1,000 owing in 1890 there
was but 1868 owing in 1913.
The debt of the state was at no
time large and shows marked de-
crease during the period, while the
population more than quadrupled
these two causes resulted in a very
small per capita debt. In 1880 the
total debt of Oregon at the close of
the year was s5l1,OO0; in 1890 it
fell to $1,000, but in 1912 amounted
to $4,000. The population of the
state increased from 10000 in 1850
to $4,000 in 1912. In 1880 the per
capita debt was 1898; in 1890 it fell

479,O62, 800 gallons. And i'll these
days the soda fountain is sizzling
summer and winter. From years end
to years end the hiss and jingle OF
the soda fountain in Uncle Sam s
domain never ceases. The time was
when for half the year the fountain
was about as idle as the straw hat
and the parasol. Public fancy has
changed all that, and now the dispens-
er of sizzing sweetness works nearly
as hard in January as in the dog
days. Soda fountain drinks tickle
the palates of the countless numbers
the year round, and thus it happens
that the disher-the handy little
tool that soda fountain attendants
have for scooping up the cream
never gets a vacation.

GOOD SIDEWALKS.

Dallas is getting a good many con-
crete sidewalks, and these walks are
a valuable asset to the city, not only
because they are substantial, but be-
cause they are permanent and slightly
as we'll as safe. Then, added to this,
they bring about conditions of i'm
provement which otherwise cannot be
had. When the concrete walk has
been placed it is permanent and the
yard can be graded and the grounds
leveled Ito correspond with the walk
as the owner has something establish
ed to build from, and work is carried
ahead with the assurance that there
will be no change. This cannot be
done where only temporary walks are
in use. Good walks become a stimu-
lus to help in the building of nice
yards and nice yards suggest well kept
homes, which in turn indicates pros
porous and refined people and all
have their tendency for the upward
life of humanity.
Taking this view we sometimes
wonder why various persons are loath
to put a few dollars into perman-
ent sidewalk when the value of theil
property will be increased more than
the cost of construction, but then we
are reminded of "Huckleberry Fir
and his old barrel.n We are too apt
to get into a state of inactivity from
which only the power of energy car
move us and too often that energy
must be applied from outside forces
Man has the opportunity and the
ability, when using his God-giveI
privileges, to rise to an intelligence
surmounted only by his creator, bu
in order to reach the condition out
lined he must move out in the righ
direction and strive with that energ,
which knows no abatement, to fill on
the measure of his creation and b.
what his maker intended him to be

progressive action, and as the spirit
ual and temporal laws are closely al
lied so also are the spiritual an'
temporal needs and inaction or lacl

to $001; reaching the maximum,
$0.6S, in 1900; and subsequently de-
clining to 1904 in 1912.
In contrast with the state OF Ore
gon taking the entire debt of 4S
states per capita debt according to
the latest report is 1882, or $3.4e
more than the per capita debt of Ore
gon. Comparing the decrease in the
per capita debt of Oregon and the
48 states for the period, we find that
$5.48 fell ito 1882 in the average fol-
the 4S states, and $293 to 1904 in
Oregon.
AT the present time about 0.S pei
cent of the total population of the
United States will be found in the
state of Oregon, and less than one
tenth of l per cent of the total debt
is attributed to this state.
