only when she comes over here
among her old friends that she sheds
her duties and puts on the old robe

JAIL Is FAULTY.

The Jail delivery of last Sunday
night is only another evidence of the
insufficiency and insecurity of the
county bastile. For a number of
years custodians of county charges
have labored at disadvantage with
this faulty Jail, and the only wonder
is that prisoners, other than those
incarcerated for petty offenses, have
been retained within its walls long
enough to be brought to trial. At
times there have been upwards of a
dozen prisoners in this inadequate and
unsafe Jail, where escape for the
greater number is possible at almost
any time, cots and improvised beds
of various kinds being necessary out
side the cells. Several times day
the sheriff is called upon in the dis
charge of his official duties to visit
the interior of the building, and it
would be an easy matter for the pris-
oners to overpower him and make
good their escape.
1t has been largely due to the honor
system that sheriffs have been enabled
to hold prisoners within the structure.
The door connecting upper and lower
floors is an insecure wooden affair,
and would not be tolerated in any
jail deserving of the distinction. Un-
der present conditions it would be an
utter impossibility for the sheriff to
prevent Jail delivery if the prison
srs displayed violence. The sheriff is
showing deal of courage in even
the bastile crowded with
where he must climb over
nen and beds, with criminals on all
ides, able, at any moment to pin him
lown where his resistance would be
Ineffective. The Jail should be mod
rnized, or torn down and one suit
BILE to the requirements built in its
,lace. The county court has long had
his under consideration, and it is
that some action in this di-
ection will be taken in the not very
istant future.

PROSPERITY IS GROWING.

Trade and financial reports from all
parts of this nation indicate that real
prosperity has returned and is stead
lily spreading and growing more pro
nounced. While all the other great
industrial nations are hard pressed to
take care of the needs and necessities
of war conditions, the situation in the
United States, both from the financial
and the trade standpoints, is truly
gratifying, and still more gratifying
for the promise it holds for the fu-
ture. just now we are engaged in the
pleasing and profitable task Of loan
ing half billion, or so, to France
and England, and with this little ac-
commodation arranged it is preducted
there will be fresh squirt Of financial
and industrial activity. For it is part
of Hhe arrangement that none of this
money is to leave this country, but
will be held as a credit against fur
ther purchases of American products
and supplies, and this, in addition to
our home trade and regular CONNER
cial deals with other nations, is ex-
pected Ito give a real impetus to the
American prosperity train.
No wonder that the big bankers,
manufacturers, heads of mercantile
firms and railway corporations, and
in fact practically all the level-headed
business and professional men of this
country, are inclined to take a most
hopeful view of the future and to
abundant prosperity and the
"best times this nation ever has
seen. They perceive that with the
end of the war will come an unprece-
dented industrial revival. Europe has
not the men for the herculean task of
filing in the depleted output. Neither,
after THE enormous military outlays
Dy all the warring powers will Eur
,pe have the capital to renovate and
,e-establish the industries of the civil
lied world. The United States must ,
furnish both the men and the money.
And we have both in plentiful supply, d
or the working forces of this country S
ire stronger and better organized i
han ever before, while the banks and I
he people have plethora of ready
ash waiting for profitable invest {
nent, and with record breaking crops
here is no end to the new wealth !
hat represents increased capital and i
power.

poses, if any good reason could be
urged in its favor The small number
of applications for extension of rural
deliveries, therefore, can be account
ed for only on the ground that the
rural mail service now reaches about
every community which really cares
for this service, and which is located
where it would be possible to reason
ably provide free rural mail service.
And this in itself is a revelation of
the remarkable growth of this SER
vice, which, up to the time it was ae-
tually established, was regarded by
many as a dangerous and expensive
experiment.
The fact that the rural delivery SER
vice has thus been brought to a state
of near perfection, however, does not
mean that the postal authorities have
further to look forward to
and work for. The parcel post SER
vice, for instance, is still in its in
fancy and while it has proven of
great advantage and convenience to
the public, it is generally conceded
that there is room for much improve
ment before this branch of the postal
service reaches perfection. Also there
is need of improvement in city deliv-
cry service, and especially in the
smaller cities and towns. This is a
matter that appears to have been
neglected while the rural
service was being built up, and now
hat the latter has been reasonably
extended and perfected it is time to
rive greater attention to the needs

SUCCESS ASSURED.

That the undertaking by Mrs
George Gerlinger of this city, mem
ber of the board of regents of the
University of Oregon, to create a
fund of 100000 for the erection of
a Woman's Memorial building at that
Institution, will be crowned with sue
cess there can be little doubt in the
minds of those familiar with the re-
markable spirit of progress possessed
by this remarkable woman. Mrs. Ger
linger. appreciating the need of a
building of this character in connec-
tion with the states institution of
learning, introduced the question be-
fore a gathering of the governing
body. Her ideas were Immediately
acquiesced in, and she was appointed
to direct the creation of fund nee
essary for carrying out the plan. The
fund will be raised through subscrip-
tions from the people of Oregon, and
although the campaign may be some
what prolonged by reason Of scar
city of ready money at this time, the
project will undoubtedly reach sue
cessful consummation and the struc-
ture erected according to Mrs. Ger
linger's idea of what it should be.

acteristics of this Dallas woman.

RURAL MAIL SERVICE.

Postmaster General Burleson, ac-
cording to a statement recently made
by him, has reached the conclusion
that the free rural mail service has
been extended until il meets all pres
ent needs of this country. For this
opinion, moreover, it would seem that
he has good basis. Last spring all post
masters and members of congress
were formally invited to suggest
where new rural free delivery routes
could be established, or old ones ex-
tended, for the improvement of the
service, and to the benefit of the pub
lie. Naturally it was expected that
thousands of applications would be
made. As a matter of fact. so the
postmaster general explains, only
fifty-nine applications were received.
Of course the natural inference is
that present needs of the country
with respect TO the rural delivery of
mails are now satisfactorily filed. For
certainly it would seem improbable
that farmers, postmasters and men,
bers of eongress-eSpecially the lat
ter-would deliberately ignore an op-
portunity to get a larger share of the
federal appropriations for postal pur-

sion with the German invaders in
northern France and Belgium. In
other words, after months of prepara-
ton England and France at last are
ready to assume the aggressive and
to make supreme effort to force the
Germans back upon their own soil,
with the natural hope that in doing
this the German power of resistance
will be so shattered and demoralized
that it may lead to a conclusion of
the whole war. But still the fight
goes on.
