X SHOWS WISDOM.

The settlement Of the border troubles at Nogales
amicably shows Carranza and his military leaders are
getting wise. The action Of General Gales in sending
regular Mexican troops to control the Mexican civilians
was sensible, and timely, indicating that the Mexican gov
eminent is awaking to the fact that the United States in
stead of being her enemy and having designs on her ter
ritory, is really her most sincere and dsinterested friend
General Gales action in disarming the drunken civilian
element assures a stopping of the Mexican habit of snip
ing across the border just for the fun of it. The deter
mined stand taken by the American general when he said
"if there was any more firing he would send American
troops across the border" may have had something to do
with Mexico's prompt action. The situation has changed
greatly since the chase after Villa, when the Mexican
government and people were alike hostile toward all
Americans. The preparation this country is making for
fighting the kaiser is an object lessen to all such as have.
heretofore beittled the United States. The Mexican edit
os who recently visited this country can tell their people
something Of this, but TO be thoroughly understood the.
work being done should be seen and realized from contact
with ii. Education along this line is to be extended to-
Switzerland from which little republic a delegation is
coming to get first hand evidence Of what we are doing
The members Of that delegation will be able to throw
some light on the situation for the benefit of their German
~neighbors.

HAYWOOD AT END OF HIS STRING.

Bill Haywood, whose life has been spent among
criminals, of whom he has generally been a leader, got
what was coming to him yesterday when Federal Judge
Lands sentenced him to serve twenty years in the federal
prison at Leavenworth, and to pay a fine of $4,000. Four
teen of the higher-ups tried and found guilty with him
were given exactly similar sentences. There is but one
drawback to the matter and that is the American system
of Jurisprudence especially criminal Jurisprudence under

Ripping Rhymes

SEPTEMBER COMING.
BY Wolt Mason

September, genial, mild and calm, is coming, like a
soothing balm. Perhaps, regardless of the cost, she'll
bring along an early frost, and that viii swat more kinds
OF ines than man can swat, howeer he tries. But if she
doesn't bring that boon she'll soothe our spirits pretty
soon; she'll heal, with hreezes cool and sweet, our CHG
ger wounds and pricky heat. September comes, so don't
despond, but save the coin to buy a bond; the fourth big
war loan will appear before 0ctober's dawn is here, and in
the crisp September air We surely ought to do our share.
For then we're full Of pep and snap. and fit for frolic or
Tor scrap. and we can hustle up the mon, and look upon the
stunt as fun. The summer is a long ordeal; like false
alarms all people feel; they're wilted and they're all run
down; an, then it's hard to chase through town to rustic
scads for any cause, however good it is or was. But in
september, when the breeze puts ginger in our spines
and knees, and makes us feel like yaarling colts exertion
brings no jars and jolts. And we can dig up many bones.
and welcome Uncle Sam, his loans, and start the autumn
feeling right, our eonsciences all shining bright.

Flax Took
First Premium AT
Philadelphia In 1876

FOrty-two years ago, II the Center
NAL celebration held in Philadelphia,
flax raised il the Willamette valley in
the vicinity Of Salem, was awarded fTss
premium over exhibits from an parts OF
the world and this included exhibits
from the famous flax sections Of Bel
GUM and Ireland.
And not only va Willamette valley
flax regarded by the judges as superior
to all other, but linseed oil. made from
the flax raised in the valley was also
awarded first prize over al world ex-
hibits.
And at the same Centennial wherein
the nations Of the world exhibited their
finest products, the Willamette Wooden
Mills were awarded first premium Tor
their WOODEN goods and especially wool
en- blankets made from the wool OF the
Willamette valley.
And not only wooden goods, but the
wool itself grown in the Willamette val
ley was awarded first premiums.
But with the coming Of the railroads
and the disposition of men Of that day
to fail TO support the flax industry.
there came a change in the valley. The
Pioneer Oil company, which had proven
to the world that its products were sa-
perior to all, was not able to eomnete
with the inferior eastern product in
which there was a mixture Of cotton
seed oil. The Pioneer Oil
could not manufacture linseed oil for
less than 81 a gallon in those days. The
inferior product was offered at soc a
gallon and this spelled the death knell
for the industry in Salem.

N A SAFETY DEPOSIT.

The teeter board goes up and the teeter board goes
down again. While wages are the highest ever known, it
be the part of wisdom for wOrkingmen who are
drawing high wages to save against the time when their
end of the teeter board swings down. Money laid away
now will come mighty handy during the period of recon-
~structiOn after the war, and the liberty bonds offer an
ideal opportunity for investment and the putting away of
all surplus money for future contingencies. The liberty
bonds are made payable to bearer and so are easily trans
ferrable. They will always command par, and make a nice
little safety deposit against future needs, as they can be
turned into money very easily if necessity requires. Of
course now no one should sell their bonds, unless abso-
lutely force dto do so, for this is just the same in its eff
fects as refusing to buy them. 1t is passing the purchase
of the bonds up to the other fellow and leaving the orig
inal subscriber carrying none of the cOuntry's burden.

The German submarines having sunk the Spanish
steamer Cruces, it remains to be seen whether the Dons
meant it when they told the kaiser they would seize an
interned German ship to replace any sunk by his piratical
craft. The kaiser has told them that any act of this kind
would be considered "unfriendly" and might result in
severing the friendly relations" existing between the
AS the kaisers idea of friendship seems to be
