County Wants Protsction.

At the last presidential election a
large majority Of the voters of the
United States supported protective
platforms. The electoral division
among Republicans left loophole, for
the moment by means Of which legis-
lauve authority rested with o minority
OF voters. But the vote for protection
stands as the substantial fact, pointing
unmistakably to the popular position
on the subject. This support of pro-
lection has been interviewer with the
history Of the country for fifty years,
and paramount in, national policies for
nearly all the time.
AS every person Of practical bust
ness Judgment can see, the end OF the
war will flood the country with cheap
foreign goods In ruinous competition
with our own industries unless q wise
protective safeguard is applied. All
Europe will hold q rummage sale IL our
doors are flung wide open on the
Democratic system. New enterprises
lre halted because of the uncertainty
in regard to the extent that free trade
eccentricities are to be continued. In
other words, will the minority shape
the economic policy OF the country for
another term Of years? Much as they
are to be regretted, and deeply injur-
iious as they must prove, such things
happen when the true weight Of public
opinion is obscured by party division.
Look at the popular vote Of 1912 and
the platforms Of that year and see how
iprotection was sidetracked, though It
received big majority.

It Is a Wabbly Party.

Senator Stone has imposed upon
himself Q task which will make the
labors Of Hercules seem light exercise
by comparison. He is to correct the
wabbling tendency OF the Democratic
party. He apparently will restrict his
efforts to Missouri, but the party every
where is afflicted with chronic wabbli.
ness and social remedies will have
little efficacy in dealing with a consti-
etutional infirmity. Certain critics Of
the baser sort may insist on the ply
sician healing himself. His war-peace
policy toward Mexico and his attitude
toward the sinking Of the Lalsitania
have been about as vacillating as any
thing in current history. The national

ROCK ROAD NEAR BALLSTON
Commissioners Order Improvement
Between Dallas and Ballston.

Headed by the mayor of Mccoy,
Van B. Sears, delegation Of resi-
dents on the road between Dallas and
Ballston appeared before the county
commissioners yesterday forenoon to
request the rocking of the highway.
A cut has recently been made near the
Savery place and the road graded and
if left unrocked through the winter
months would become practically i'm
passable, said the representatives of
the neighborhood. AS a result Of the
request the commissioners have di-
rected Roadmaster Finn to proceed
with the work as soon as possible.
The improvement will cover approx
mately one mile of road, six miles
north of Dallas, and will cost, as es.
timated by the roadmaster, between
$4,000 and $2500. Those who accom-
panied Mayor Sears, and voiced the
plea of residents in the affected dis
trict, were Frank Faulk, George Neu-
bel and George Ball.

BLAZE GOES TO OAT STACKS.
Uncontrolled Fire Jumps Forty Rods
to Stubble Field.

The blaze from burning slashings
got beyond the control of LIE Roy
Neubill at his farm near Willamlna
on Wednesday and spread into near
by stubble fields where considerable
damage was done. w. V. Fuller was
called at about the noon hour, and
in the afternoon drove to the Neubill
place, where he found that the fire
had crept over a hill and jumped at
least 40 rods into a stubble field. The
greatest damage done was when the
blaze destroyed a number of sacks OF
newly threshed oats on the kribs
farm. In a number of places could
be seen spots not touched by fire, in
dicating that its progress was rapid
and that it jumped several times. By
evening the fire had spent itself and
is now just smoldering slowly on the
creek bottom without doing damage.
The Neubill place is about two and
one-half miles south of Willamina.
Mr.. Fuller says that, although no
great damage was done the result OF
the fire will be a good lesson to the
farmers of the district, and they will
probably exercise more care in future.

FORMER DALLAS MAN DIES.
Heart Failure Takes R. E. Bryan,
Once Prominent Merchant.

An excited maid at the home Of
Richard E. Bryan, a timber dealer,
summoned two of the big city's fire
companies on Wednesday morning
when Mr.. Bryan was seized with
heart failure at his home in Portland.
Mr.. Bryan died within a few moments
after the fire engines arrived, and
there is little possibility that he would
have lived had the maid not made
the mistake of calling the fire depart
ment when she intended to call doe
tor. Mr.. Bryan was formerly we'll
known merchant of this city where
he operated dry-goods store where
the Dallas Mercantile company now
is. After several years of successful
business here he went to Falls City,
where he became a partner in mer-
camille establishment and secured
timber interests. Later he moved to
Portland and opened Offices in the
Wilcox building, where he dealt in
timber lands, at which he is said to
have accumulated a fortune. Mr..
Bryan was apparently in good health
Just before his sudden death, and was
preparing to leave for his office when
the attack came. He was Is years
old and is survived by a widow and
a family.

COURT PROMISED SILK FLAG.
Emblem Will Be Used By Judge Belt
in Naturalization Ceremony.

Having been fortunate enough to
get through the congress of the Sons
of the American Revolution with a
balance to the good in the entertain
ment fund, Wallace McCamant of
Portland writes that through the gen.
erosity Of contributors to this fund
the committee has been permitted to
use the balance for the purchase of
flags, which will be ready for distri-
button within the ensuing month, and
it is the purpose to present one OF
these flags to each court of general
jurisdiction in the state, with a re-
quest that it be used in naturalization
proceedings. Judge Harry H. Belt
has been advised to this effect and
believing that the United States flag
should be used in the ceremony when
a newly naturalized citizen take his
oath of allegiance, thus instructing
him that his first loyalty is due to
this emblem, he will make applica-
ton for one of the flags for the
Polk county circuit court.
The flags are, according to Mr.. Nc
Camant, handsome silk flags in keep
ing with the dignity of any court.
The purpose of presenting this en-
blem of freedom to the various courts
of the state is to make the naturali-
zation ceremony more impressive. The
acceptance of the flag by the court
should be made an event of patriotic
display by the public. A program
fitting the occasion would not be out
of nlace

SALEM BRIDGE AGAIN
MARION COUNTY COURT HERE
FOR INTERVIEW.
Commissioner Beckwith Looses Fin

Three representatives of the Mar

of the Polk county court here yes
terday afternoon to discuss a propos-
al to build new bridge to link the
two counties at Salem. The party in
cluded Judge Bushy, Commissioner
Gouley and Roadmaster James Cul-
yer. Commissioner Beckwith had
planned to attend the meeting, but
just before he was to leave home he
had his finger jammed when he put
a stop block under wagon wheel,
necessitating the amputation of the
third finger on the left hand. AT the
suggestion of Judge Teal discussion
regarding the proposed bridge was
postponed until finances of both coun-
ties are in better condition. The Mar
ion and Polk county commissioners
entered into an interesting discussion
of road building, including hard sur
facing, of which the former has in use
about three miles at the present time.

TO OBSERVE "PEACH WEEK.
Citizens of State Uurged to Buy This
Fruit August 80 to September 4.

Buy peaches during the week, Au-
gust 80 TO September 4.
This is the advice of Governor
Withycombe in a proclamation that
followed a like proclamation from
Acting Governor Of Washington.
"Peach week" is to correspond to
"apple day." save that it will last
the week through. With the largest
peach crop in the history Of the two
states and the markets demoralized,
growers are hard put to dispose of
their picking at profit.
The Eugene public market, which
is to open Saturday, September 4,
will be means of assisting many of
the growers to dispose of their peach
es, but only a very few of them can
be accommodated in the market sheds
at time.
Commercial bodies of different cit
les of Oregon and Washington have
jumped back of the peace movement
and those who originated it have urg-
ed the Eugene organizations to sup
port it. Citizens in general collec-
lively and individually are urged to
buy their peaches during the coming
week or next week for their winter s
canned supply, preserves and MARINA
lade.
