WHY NOT DEVELOP OREGON IN
BTSTRIES?

The Oregon labor commissioner Is
of on a tour of the eastern states to
gather now ideas about factory reg
ulation and inspection laws.
This seems like an unnecessary eX-
penditure when Oregon already has
more laws for regulation OF indus
tries than the state can prosper with.
There are now so many laws pro-
viding for state and federal inHpec-
tion that capital is very reluctant to
invest In any industrial enterprise
The fruit and vegetable canning
industry IL regulated TO death, and
gathering and marketing OF fruit is
seriously handicapped.

How Farmers Get Rich

Implements-Th increase the output
Implements reduce the expense. -i
Implements make labor light.
Implements swell bank accounts.
There you have 1.-THE secret Of how so many
farmers amass comfortable fortunes while still
comparatively young men. 1t is by the applica-
cation OF common sense and progressive meth
eds in the working and improving of the farm,
in the prompt adoption of every known device
for increasing the profits and cutting down the
expense. And in no way can this be done so
quickly and effectively as by the use of new
and improved farm machinery and implements.
The four classes of implement and machin-
cry listed above will produce prompt results.
They will pay for themselves many times over,
will earn big dividends for the farmer, and will
tighten his labor to an amazing extent. This is
the experience and verdict Of every farmer who
uses them.
We sell them at attractive prices.

Reason for Democratic Dependency.

Reason for Democratic Dependency.
From the West and northwest comes
the interesting rumor that large num-
hers Of Democrats refuse to follow
Mr.. Wilson's sudden change from
pacifism to militarism and that they
are planning to join with the few Re-
publicans who favor peace at any
price in an Independent political move
ment which will nominate Bryan and
Ford as a presidential ticket.
The originators Of the plan admit
that the larger portion OF whatever
support the ticket may secure will
come from the Bryan element OF the
Democratic party, but they are hope
full that enough Republicans will join
them to enable the Bryan-Ford ticket
to carry several states in that part OF
the country. The territory in which
this movement is springing up is nat
urally Republican and, with the re-
union of Republican strength which
has taken place, has been counted sure
for the nominee of the Chicago con-
vention. If a Bryan-Ford party should
gain any considerable number Of cleo
toral votes, either there or elsewhere
/ it might result that no candidate would
gain majority of the electoral col
Iege and that the choice of a presi-
dent would again be thrown into the
House of Representatives-the first
time that such thing has happened
it is recalled, since the election OF
John Quincy Adams.
In such an event each state would
cast one vote-to be determined by
the majority vote OF It's representation
in the lower branch of Congress. This
would produce Republican president
Twenty-four states have Republi-
can majority in their congressional
delegations. They are Connecticut
Delaware, Idaho, illinois, Iowa, Maine
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota

cans, three Democrats. two Progress

A writer describes the federal in

way to test this statement is to study
the statistics. 1t is recommended to
those who feel interested to take the
official figures of the individual income
tax for the fiscal year ending June.

by illinois with the $425.691 paid by
Texas. the sl,24O,5O1 paid by Califor-

J. Virginia, the S264,315 paid by Iowa
with the sS4,6SS paid by Alabama, the
s5S1,949 paid by Minnesota with the
s119,9S3 paid by Georgia, the $l2s,735
paid by Nebraska with the s4S,S6O paid
by South Carolina, the S1,4S0,4O paid
by Ohio with the S121,S6S paid by Flor

book, 1t gives you license to draw as
many checks, in as large or as small
sums as you wish, with the only pro-
vision Except in certain cases where
a minimum balance Is required) that
you do not overdraw, and promises to
honor your checks as presented as
long as your balance is sufficient to
pay them.
Whether you want to pay your cred
itor in the next block, or a thousand
miles away, tho checking privilege oil
a bank account permits you to make
your payment with ease, safety and
despatch.
When you mail your check your
trouble is over and the banks has Inst
begun, for the bank warrants to you
three things, all for your own protec-
tlon and at its own risk. 1t is well to
know them.
1t guarantees (a) That 1t will pay
only the checks you have signed. II
your name is forged and the bank pays
the check, it cannot charge the amount
to your account; (b) That 1t will pay
only in the sum originally drawn, II
some one gets your check and raises
the amount, making it apparently a
genuine check, the bank can only
charge the amount in which you
originally drew the check, unless it can
show you were grossly careless in 80
drawing that you invited fraud. There
fore be careful to draw your checks
properly; lei To pay to the party to
whom you ordered the amount paid
and none other. If the check gets into
the hands OF strangers who forge the
Endorsement, so that the party to whom
you ordered the money paid does not
get 1t, the payment is at It's risk, and
you are harmless.
All this is ultimately for your good
as depositor. You know that your
account cannot be drawn against ex-
cept on your order. You know that
the party you want to receive payment
gets it. You get back the most per-
feet voucher known to the business
world. Many dispute has been set
tied and loss and law suit avoided by
producing bank vouchers that told in
no uncertain way that payment had
been made according to the intent OF
the drawer. Therefore for your own
good you ought to Keep your money in
bank, and draw it out by check.
