Truth
The CT. was disinclined to believe
that there was anything to this com
munication. 1t figured that somebody
had either allowed the numerous re-
ports of poisoning by German spies to
work on her Imagination or that she
was trying to hoax the newspaper.
lnasmuch as the government was ar
resting spies right and left ON similar
charges, the CT. turned the letter ov-
er to the United States district attor-
ney and at the same time advertised
for TRUTH to come forward and
make herself known. The government
thought enough of the letter to send
a secret service man. here to investi-
gate but the peddler had gone and the
government is still trying > to locate
him.
Believing that nothing is to be gain
ed by keeping the matter quiet, the
GIT. after consulting a government
agent, is publishing the letter. We
don't believe there is anything to it
but think it is a matter that the pub
lie ought to know about. If it was
meant for a joke, it wasn't much of q
jone and if "Truth" is telling the
truth, she is as guilty as the peddler or
his aceomplice in not coming thru
with enough information TO make an
investigation effective.

A SPY IN
Corvallis Times azette)
X x x = y X x = i = =

A few weeks ago there was a man
in Corvallis trying to buy. hair to make
switches. A half a dozen women in
formed this office that he acted
queer and they thought he was a
German spy. In one house he succeed
ed in getting the lady to let him have
some of her combings for a switch.
After she had talked to him awhile she
got scared and changed her mind and
refused to let him have the hair. After
he had gone, the incident made such
an impression on her, that she took the
combings she had so carefully saved
and burned them because this man had
handled them. At another place he of
fered 500 for a switch that the lady
had. She agreed. He wanted to take
the switch and send it in. She insisted
on having the cash and the deal fell
through.
While these things were going ON
the CT. received this mysterious let
ter:
editor: Last week there was a
German spy in Corvallis. He was taking
orders for making switches from ladies
hair combings. He stopped while here
with a wealthy German family. They
are German sympathizers though out
wardly loyal. But I, the writer, work
ing in another room adjoining, dis
tinctly heard him telling the lady
where he stayed, and though their CON
versation was in German, l understand
every word. They do not know I can
speak the language so were careless.
He told her the switches would be i'm
p%regnated with a loathsome disease to
ruin American women and their chill
dren and that it would ruin the mind
also. I have not space to tell you the
frightful things he said, but to be brief
it was, he said, the intention of the
German government, thru their spies
in this country, to ruin the American
people with awful disease germs in
every conceivable way, also homes and
stock and waterways: He told her to
pretend great loyalty and "to work
the Red Cross stunt and the flag dis

Grape Gravy.
(Great Inventions series.)

AZ
"Tooby," said Goodman Bunk one
evening late in 14O7, "why don't you
squeeze the gravy of grapes, and store
it down the cellar in bottles, like our
neighbor, Mistress Middbean She
calls it grapejuice-how appropriated
1t comes from grapes, so she calls it
grapejuicel"
"What would you expect her to call
it-bay rum9'' snapped his wife, who
was of an exceedingly jealous nature.
And the next day she called her eight
children, Florigail, LINER, Himpen-
stock, Hammock, Highway, Scabner,
Blunnion and Trapeze-(see Marcel
Voor's GLORIOUS Cognomens of the
Fifteenth Century''), and set them to
work picking grapes. As fast as they
picked them. Mistress Bunk squeezed
the gravy out of the ones they hadn't
eaten, and by nightfall she had filled
thirty bottles and stored them in the
cellar.
Three months later Goodman Bunk
was awakened from the bottom of a
deep sleep by crashes, smashes, blasts
and ~detonations. Rushing down into
the unlighted cellar with a lighted
candle, he saw the bottles of grapejuice
exploding one after the other all along
the shelf. After his wife had eaten a
good breakfast to give her courage, she
went down to see what had become of
him, carried up his unconscious form
and picked out the pieces of glass.
Goodman Bunk thought deeply and
during his convalescenee, and imme-
diately afterwards he designed the first
gattling gun.

DOING IT"

In an editorial paragraph a few days ago 1T was stated
that the fishermen were selling salmon at four cents. The
price just now is eight cents but that does not alter the
comment made on the difference between the price PAID
by the iobbers and that finally charged the consumer.
The only difference is that instead of making Z5 per
cent the consumer pays someone $50 per cent more than
the fisherman gets and this is simply charging all the
traffic will bear. We do not pretend to say who gets this
profit but we do assert that the consumer pays it. In do
ing so he pays more than the service is worth. The retail
dealer may be held up by the jobber but whether he is or
not the consumer is charged more for his fish than a fair
profit iustifes. However, the fshdealers, and by this we
mean the jobbers as well as all others handling the fish
between the fisherman and the consumer, is not alone IN
this grabbing for the dollar. The whole country has gone
mad in it's chase for money. There is not an article used
by the people that has not advanced greatly In price.
These increases are alleged to be due to the war, and they
are. The war is made an excuse for adding much more
than the increased price on account OF 1t. We have for
instance at Butte, Montana, painters who but a short time
ago were working for $500 a day and who are now get
ting $3.50, striking for $500. Carpenters working for
$3.50 in Puget Sound points are demanding $500, Seattle
and Portland shipyard workers want a minimum OF $500
for eight hours. Laborers on farms and in the woods are
getting much more than they received a year or TWO ago.
We are all acting as though there is no limit to what
business can pay for labor, and as though there was no
limit to what the consumer can pay for everything ne
eats, drinks, wears or sleeps on or under. Farmers who
a short time ago looked upon dollar wheat as about all
that could be desired, now object to from S1.7O to $40 a
bushel. So it goes down the whole line. No, the fisher,
men and dealers are far from being alone in the charging
of e~xorbitant prices. In the language of the song recently
popular: "Everybodys doing it"

WILL KILL HIM FOR BEING RIGHT

Situations change rapidly in Russia. General Korni-
loft started a revolution because of a difference of opin-
ion between himself and Premier Kerensky as to the
character of punishment necessary to enforce discipline.
Kerensky was against capital punishment and harsh
measures. Korniloff wanted capital punishment made
the law again and insisted it was the only measure that
would bring the Russian troops back to a realization of
their duty. Over this difference the two came to blows,
so to speak. Korniloff undertook to do the only thing he
thought would save the situation. He could not enforce
discipline, and his soldiers drifted away from him forcing
him to a point where he must surrender. Now, Kerensky
who was against severe punishment insists upon it as
against Korniloff, and those who aided him. No doubt
Korniloff was just as much a patriot as Kerenesky. He
had only the good of Russia at heart. The best course
under the circumstances is for Kerensky to forget their
differences, restore Korniloff to his command and by his
acts as head of the government show that it is Russia
alone he is working for, and that no mere personal feel
ings will be permitted to endanger the things he is fight
ing for. This would do more to unity the country than
any thing he could do. At the same time now that Korni-
loft has demonstrated he is right as to strict discipline
being an absolute necessity, Kerensky should also. lay
aside his opinion on that subject and adopt those that
have been proved correct. Now the Russian people are
also demanding Korniloffs death, thereby indorsing his
position that capital punishment is necessary TO enforce
discipline. They would punish him for his breach of
discipline by ~inflcting the punishment he demanded.
And Kerensky's turn to face public displeasure may
come next--evidence of his wanning popularity can mol
longer be overlooked.
