COPENHAGEN, Sept. 21.-The Ru-
manian Crown Prince has fed from
Rumanian territory and arrived in
Odessa, according to the Ukrainian
newspaper "Krewskaia."
News Of the fight of Crown Prince
Charles Of Rumania follows closely
reports that came from German sources
of an anti-German outbreak in Ru-
mania, in which Queen Marie, who is
an nncompromising sympathizer with
the Entente, was the prime mover
King Ferdinand was reported to be
holding aloof from the movement. Field
Marshal von Mackensen, it was stated,
was to return to Rumania at once, to-
gether with DR.. Solf, the German Colo
NAL Secretary, presumably to deal with
the reported outbreak
Crown Prince Charles is known to
have been in sympathy with the at
titude of his mother in her bitter
hatred for all things German, and
quite possibly would have been asso-
ciated with her in any anti-German
agitation.

jolly hard fighting and we do not expect
the war to end this autumn" aaid a
famous fighting general to mo. "but we
shall make the boche fronting us wish
1t would"
One must ride over tho reconoue~ed
Lys, Ancre and Somme country and
walk in the famous Queant switch of
the hindcnburg trench defence system
TO realize the enormous strength Of
these scientifically built and thoroughly
equipped German line forts and the
magnitude Of the British task and
the power and durability of their war
engine in action. The problem Of
breaking the Hndenburg line which
tho British faced in 1917 is being
achieved. The fall Of this redoubtable
switch has been the most important
first step and quite the most notable in
the series Of recent Ally achievements.
10000 BOches Captured
The Alternating blows of the British
armies have brought them approx
mately to the front they held six
months ago. Within six weeks, during
which time the Germans have employed
htty-three divisions, using one division
to about every two miles and a half of
the front, they have lost $4,000 prison
ers, making the totall Ally capture
since July Is 100000. With his dlvi-
SONS fit for the offensive reduced to
fourteen, Of which five are between the
Olsc and the sea, and the British men,
aclng Cambrai, the French Laon and
the Americans Bricy, all under the
master strategist Foch, it is small
wonder that the Kaiser has loosed the
Austrian peace joker.
Having SO considerable proportion
of his force badly battered and growing
increasingly fearful of the tanks,
which, despite every device the Ger
had adopted to stop them from
breaking through their formidable belts
of wire and machine gun redoubts, thus
making way for the Ally infantry,
which otherwise could only get through
at terrible cost, the Boches are
their artillery we'll to the
rear and are using greatly increased
numbers of high explosives from their
long range cannon.
The enemy, recoiling before the
weight of the British blows, timed and
delivered with great and persstng
force, is sending over his observation
planes at the highest possible altitude
and his combat planes are lurking in
fleets back Of his own lines, to fall on
the British scouts whom he does not
dare venture forth to fight. He is
covering his retreat with multitudes
Of machine guns arranged in cunningly
nests and veritable earth
work forts, reinforced by railroad iron
and wire and defended by from twenty
five to fifty guns. He is laying bomb
traps in the deserted trenches, and
mines in roads and gaps in the wire
IN vain effort to check the British
pressure. But, as the British say. the
Boche have not yet stopped them.
The enemy still holds Passchcndaele,
Messnes Ridges, Cambria, St. Quentin,
Gobain Forest, Laon and the Chemin
des Danes, which compose the bulwark
of his west line. Cambra and St.
Gobain are the pivotal positions, and
the loss of either would imperil the
entire German line from Cambria, car
rying st. Quentin and Laon and turning
the Aisne position. A break in his
bulwark would force retirement on the
Lille Metz line, which in due course of

have been short of potatoes, etc, but
for the fact that a farmer made us

$4,000 dollars worth Of potatoes. There
will now be all the potatoes that can

some for sale. In September and Oc-

The general thought was, however,
that McAdoo has quit public life, as he

petite, eating perhaps nothing but po-
tato, bread and gravy, etc. With in

different for they are for the most

hearty appetites. My idea in present
ing the above facts is to show the. in
justice of comparing the per capita
expense of running the penitentiary
with that of the Oregon state hospital,
for as you can see, the conditions Of
the two institutions have been almost
entirely opposite.

of control informing them that the
ruling whereby we were compelled ia
DO this work for $50 was an injustice
and owing to the increased cost of
trucks, tires, gasoline ETC., it would be
necessary to charge these institutions

: This request was refused and this
institution by arrangements with the
state board Of control is still doing
this work, paying for all supplies out
OF the general fund for maintenance
for this institution and operating at

His first stop will be at Atlanta.
McAdoo did not acquaint his imme-
date associates of his purposes until

before he called in the press to an
nounce his resignation and its accep-
tancc. He gave out correspondence,

President Wilson answered that he
regretfuily accepted. at the same time
highly praising the secretary's faith
fulness and ability.
McAdoo did not claim to be broken
IN health, though he did suggest he is
lauch in need Of rest. 1t was recalled
today that he spent some time, on a
western ranch recently because of a
throat trouble which was mainly su-
pcrinduced by overwork.
President Wilson probably will name
his successor before departing for Eu-
rope. incidentally, the question of per.
manent government control Of railroads
IS destined to arise soon. McAdoo is
known to have favored indefinite con
tinuation of such control-if not actual
ownership. Now, railroad security hold.
ers are organizing to test out this stu
alton and to force return of lines to
private ownership. McAdoo, it was
pointed out, would have had to take a
definite stand soon on this problem.

ME, and have known me all my life,
that ] shoull make the above statement
which have done in all sincerity and
truth.
Administrative Expense
Discussing the cost of conducting the
prison, the warden says:
+ 81 have no apologies to make nor ex-
cuses to offer but wish to say in ex-
planation of the alleged high cost of
running the Oregon State Peniten-
tiary. The governor intimates that it
mas cost more in proportion to run the
penitentiary than the other state in
stitutions. He mentions the Oregon
State Hospital in particular. There the
cost of running the State Hospital has
not increased like the per capita at the
Penitentiary- The overhead expense at
the penitentiary is from thirty to fifty
per cent of the general expense of run
ming the institution, and if there were
only fifty prisoners the overhead ex'
pense would remain about the same; but
Of course if you were to divide the
whole expense between fifty prisoners
the per capita expense would be very
large.
TOn the other hand if there were
six hundred prisoners the overhead ex-
pense would not be any greater ana
if the total expense was divided among
the 900 the per capita expense would
be quite small. When | became warden
there were 449 prisoners and at the
present time the are only about 800.
Ut stands to reason that the overhead
expense when divided by 449 prisoners
is smaller than it would be If divided by
800.
During the past year the prison pop
ulation has decreased considerable
while the overhead expense has in
creased very materially owing 10 the
high cost Of living and the scarcity Of
labor. The same is not true at the
Oregon State Hospital. Their popula-
tion has increased by leaps and bounds
owing to the fact that it has been inn
possible to deport foreigners and for
other reasons. Their overhead expense
increased some, too, but when you
divide the total maintenance cost byl
the extra large population naturally
it brings the per capita cost down to
bed rock. Another reason why the state
hospital is able to keep down its per
capita cost is, they have large farm
which furnishes them an abundance of
vegetables fruits, milk, eggs, etc., at
small expense. Then again their in.
mates are very different class of
people to those of the penitentiary.
That is, large per cent Of them are not

ever, did not bear out this theory as

Much Speculation.
Secondly there was speculation that
the presidency in 1920 had an influence
in McAdoo's direction.
Some thought McAdoo was skepticAl
of being successful candidate in 1920
inasmuch as his continuance in office
might be attended by political differ
ences with the opposition party next
year over railroads and appropriations.
On the other hand, some believed
