THE NECESSARIES OF LIFE.

A swell young man Of New York in suit to get pos
session of nearly $300OOOO which he says is his rghtIu
share in his fathers estate, makes the allegation that ne
can't live on less than $34, 800 year.
The father seems to have entertained different ldeaS
for he cut the young off with patry $OOO, upon
which he has been starving . u
The young man figures his necessities as follows
"Three servants and man. $500 rent Sl5OO insurance
$780, automobiles $4,000 clothing, $l2OOO table, SoOOO
travelling expenses $4,000 cigarettes and other nee
essaries $780, total S3450O ,
OF course there are different grades OF living. WHAT
are uxies to some are necessities to others so ones
necessities Of life form complicated question that each
must settle for himself in his own mind and IN his own
pocBetbook.
That is what this young man has sought to do de has
figured it all out Most content to let their neceS-
sites find them out but this young swell has chased out
after them rounded them up and corraed them within
figures Evidently his necessities are dear to hlm IN
both senses
He charges himself with $4,000 year for clothes TO
the average man this might seem too much. But we must
remember that it is CLOTHES that make the man. and IN
some instances it takes lot Of them to do it.
But the item that does not quite explain itself is the
first one 500 for three servants and man. The dis
tinction between servant and man is not altogether
clear 1t is fatal admission. Having conceded that
"man may live on share of 81 500 he might be forced
by the court to make man of himself and thus live with
in a reasonable income.

PAPER BLoCKADES.
portland Journat.)

(POrtland JOurnal.)
The allies declare a paper blockade
Of Germany. Germany declared a
paper submarine blockade of British
ports.
In both instances, the rights of
neutral nations are violated. The
safety Of our ships at sea is imperiled
by German action Our right Of unre-
strained commerce with Germany in
non.contraband goods and products is
violated by the action Of the allies.
The samc is true in each case with re.
spect to all nautral nations.
Never was war attended with
more complications Never was the
United States called upon to play so
delicate, so prudent and 80 intelligent
a game in world diplomacy.
The problem is to protect American
rights, be fair and just to both sides,
and keep the peace, 1t is deep and
desperate game when civilization is so
near break down in half the world.
The untenable attitude Of both
bclligcrcnts is attested by the Dec
laration Of London. 1t says:
/ In accordance with the Declaration
OF Paris, Of 1885, blockade, in order
to be binding, must be effective
that is 10 say, 1t must be maintained
by force sufficient really to pre-
vent access to the enemy coastline
The question whether blockade i,
effective is question Of fact.
Neutral vessels may not be cap
turcd for breach Of blockade exccp
within the area Of operations Of tn,
warships detailed to render the block
nde effective. Whatever may be tn,
ultimate destination of vessel or Of
her cargo, she cannot be captured fo
breach Of blockade, II, at the moment
she is on her way to a non.bockade,
port.
These are the essential contention
which the United States probably viii
insist upon. In 1916 President Monro,
stated the case in note TO the Span
ish minister saying;
Ono maxim Of the law Of nations
IL better established than that block
ade shall be confined to particula

With the general theme of 'Why
not start something last night
Journal makes a friendly criticism of
the Salem Commercial Club for not
taking up with the scheme for organ,
izing a lace factory here. By way OF
comparison, the article states that Eu-
gene has embarked upon a campaign
for raising the $l56,O00 of stock re-
quired.
The Journal is little wrong in its
assumption that the scarcity of money
was the controlling motive for Salem S
delay. As yet, the Board has not
come to the consideration of the i'm
portant money question, because
thorough and conscientious investiga-
ton has failed to convince the gov
ernors that the project is feasible and
sound and until satisfied on this score,
the Board does not feel that it can
ask the Salem public to subscribe the
hundred thousand dollars or so needed.
The Board has not, however, turned
down the proposition and is still ae-
lively investigating and considering
the matter and when satisfied that the
proposition is practical, every effort
will be made to establish the plant here.
If Eugene has rushed into the scheme,
they either possess lastly different in
formation. or else think much less of
their money.
The Salem Commercial Club at the
risk of incurring the dreadful epithet
conservative will not ask support
for such schemes whose success is at
the best doubtful Each week brings
us some proposition from an ambitious
Organizer who wants to match his
buiness acumen and experience against
a free site and many thousand Of good
Salem dollars. Most of them do not
warrant the careful and extended con.
sideration given the beet sugar and
lace propositions.
1t is true that we want payrOlls
badly. 1t is an urgent need with all
Oregon cities. With a few notable ex-
ceptions however the payrols that
have to be secured by doubtful promo,
ton, have short and tragic records.
Probably Salem has bought enough Of
their highly Autographed factory stock
to paper good sized house. We can
not endorse many of these schemes and
still retain the public confidence.
We believe that Salem s future in
the way Of payrolls lies with the con.
Germs that make up the things we pro.
duce hereabouts, such as lumber mills,

THE SOURCE OF SUCCESS.

The real elements of success must be generated within
the man. Success is mostly creation of the mind
Before we can succeed in anything we must first frame
the mind for success Our thought must be of success not
failure.
stream cannot rise higher than its source and even
Raphael could not paint the face of Christ with Satan in
his mind for model.
The mind that is unclouded by fear and expected fail
ure that is discontented with handto-mouth existence
and eager to seize upon every passing opportunity or adj
vantage is pretty safe pilot to success.
1t is yourself creates your own atmosphere; and life
so far as you play part in it, is only reflection of your
own thought and temperament We all look upon life
through msts tinted by own natures 1t depends upon
nothing but ourselves whether the tint be the rosy one Of
cheer courage and success dakened to gloom by our
forebodings and low aims,
What is the practical difference?
Just this:
In the one case life looks bright and joyous and fruitful
and in the other cold and dreary and fruitless.
And what life looks to us ii is
Through the one tint we see friendships, loves hopes
efforts, successes; through the other hates enves,
malices, disappontments failures
But the difference is only seeming?
Not at all!
It's the most actual reality in this world!
