KERR DOES NOT DRAW 1T

President Kerr Of the O. A. c., who put up a job to
have his salary increased from $1,000 to $4,000, and sue
ceeded in having it increased to $500, has not yet drawn
any part of the increase, so it is announced If the in
crease of his salary was an honest, straight forward
proposition, as certain of the board Of regents would have
the public believe, why does not the gentleman draw the
increased pay? Everybody who knows Kerr is aware
that it is not bashful diffidence or blushing modesty that
keeps his front feet out of the trough. He is afraid to
draw it, is the natural inference, on account of its political
effect. Of course he is not running for office, but an
other distinguished member, late Of the college faculty, is
and the college is working every county agriculturist
overtime in boosting for this candidate who is backed by
Kerr. 1t is too much even to imagine the distinguished
college president at Corvallis has forgotten this little
raise Of $1,40O a year, and it is therefore fair to presume
he will help himself to it after the election is over. OF
course this is only guess work on our part for we do not
pretend to that prescience which can look under Kerr'sI
hat and predict what he will--or won't do.

splinters, and pretended he didn't like
shad (although really intensely fond
of it) because he had heard of people
getting bones in their throat.
So it was natural, when he found
himself or the battle front, that he
should east about for ways and c
to be taken out of the c~ombatant
class. Finally he hit on the scheme
of offering himself as an interpreter.

Colonel Chest when Shirk IS applica-

let him get to work."
The prisoner was brought in, and
so was Sbirks.
"Do you speak French2" asked
Shirks.

shaking his head. :

"Tittcum folff," said the prisoner

Rheumatism, No. 2.
By ANDREW F. CURRIER, NJ. D.

Chronic rheumatism or rheuma-
ted arthritis begins, of course, as

rheumatism.

less heart trouble, frequently less

1t Is usually found in mature
people, people who have reached
forty or fifty, frequently occurs in
women, and is often associated with
grippe and diseases of the breath
ing and digestive organs.
At first the joints are soft, then
they are hard and stiff; the joints
Of the fingers are first attacked,
then the elbow, shoulder, knee and
hip, fluid accumulating In them,
and the slightest motion in them
giving intense pain.
The joints are more or less swoll-

tons Of a family.
So-called muscular rheumatism
attacks chiefly the muscles of the
back, neck, and shoulders, common
names for 1t being '1umbago," stiff
neck" and "crick in the back"
The muscles in such cases are
stif and painful, especially when
they are touched or moved.
This disease, like the other var.
ieties, is probably due to germs: it
is made worse by dampness, cold
and bad sanitary conditions; and it
may become permanent, like the
joint disease, with the formation
of new fbrous tissue in the affected
muscles.

1T is sweet for brethren to dwell together in unity"
One is reminded of this on perusing what the republican
candidates have to say of and concerning each other,
through the medium of their campaign committees. If
each is to be believed there is about as tough a lot of
candidates especially at or near the head of the ticket as
the republicans of Oregon were ever called upon to select
from. The Capital Journal is not prone to believe evil of
anyone and does not, until the evidence is overwhelming
as it is in some cases, ard so refuses to accept the opinions
The candidates have of each other as true.

Those great granaries of the Ukraine, which the CEN
trail powers so loudly proclaimed as doing away with ali
danger of bread shortage, are not yielding as well as was
expected. In the first place there was not a big crop
owing to the farmers all being 50 busy enjoying their
new-found freedom that they did not have time to plant.
crops. On top of this, Prussian arrogance has so in
censed the farmers that rather than submit to German
dictatiOn and to deliver their wheat at certain points,
they are burning ii. The Russian may not be a great
soldier, but each and every individual of them under
stands how to defeat any enemy that undertakes to in
wade their country. They "fire and fall back" That is
they burn everything as they retreat and leave the coun-
try a veritable desert. The Prussians in Ukraine are be-
ing given a sample of this treatment just now.

1t is too early to form any opinion as to what the
Germans are going to try to accomplish by the drive now
in progress. 1t has not progressed to that stage where
the objective is disclosed. In fact so far as the Germans
are concerned it has not progressed at all. 1t is quite
likely there will be some severe fighting within the next
few days unless the Germans think better of it and hold
off, and this they dare not do even if they so desired, on
account of effect at home. There is no prospect of an
outbreak among the civilians, at least for the present, but
every defeat and every disappointment is sowing the
seeds of discomfort and bringing the day Of uprisings and
that much nearer.

German arrogance is turning the Russians and
Ukrainians against Prussian ~junkerism again. The sit
uation has got in such shape that Hindenburg and the
m~ilitarists must gain territory, by a war of conquest or
see themselves go into the discard along with the Hohen-
zollerns when the German people learn that all the war
has brought them for their four years of sacrifice and the
loss of four or five millions of the flower of their young
men, is a staggering load of debt and the contempt of the
balance of the civilized world. Unless a peace can be
made that will relieve the German people of the war
debt the kaiser and his junkers will be fired by the Ger
man people. The only way to accomplish this now is to
absorb Russia, Rumania and other countries, and make
them vassals Of Germany. This is the last desperate eff
fort to save themselves and the Hohenzollerns, and it will
fail because the methods employed will arouse the Rus
slams and Rumanians and so defeat their object.

The wheat crop gives promise Of being a bumper one,
and should this prove true there still remains every rea-
son for maintaining our present conservation system, in
part at least. We should, as a matter of safety, carry
over a surplus for next year, and so be prepared to
furnish our allies, for their home production has de-,
creased greatly, and will at least be no greater until the
war ends. If the submarines are i'll the next few months,
rs some hope, put out Of business, another year of ship
building would see the situation relieved in that there
would then be ships enough to carry the grain from
Australia and other remote sections, to where it is needed,
in Europe. However the submarines are not yet out of
the calculation and the end Of the war is not in sight. The
part Of wisdom therefore is to conserve our wheat while
we have it to conserve.

The British navy has added to its many brilliant and
heroic feats in its second attack on Ostend and the clos
ing of the canal. If the blocking of the canal is as
thorough as is hoped and believed, it will have a great
bearing on the war, in that it will decrease submarine ac-
tivities and increase German dissatisfaction and hope
~lessness. The submarine has been used as the harbinger
of a German-made peace to the German people, and any
thing that lessons its efficiency, especially just as the
great army gathered by Hindenburg during the winter
and with which he promised the German people a sweep
ing victory, has met with reverses and its advance
checked. The effect of the brilliant work of the British
tars may indeed be far reaching.

Lenine, bolsheviki leader and betrayer of Russia, sends
broadcast a message to the effect that "a counter revolu-
ton is raising its head, turning the discomfort of the
starving masses against the soviet" For this reason he is
calling for help, but whom he wants to help him is a
mystery. The Germans can't, neither can the allies and
the Russian people having about enough Lenine will de-
vote their energies to getting rid Of him rather than
helping him retain his grasp on the throat Of Russia's
freedom.

INTERESTING MEETING At

About SO ladies and gentlemen
were present yesterday at the meet

the interests of gardening and to
organize the Ladies' Auxiliary of the

the meeting failed to reach here in
time, but those present were delighted
and greatly instructed by the prac-

district agent, from Winnsboro.
So interested were the ladies that
the time soon came for the daily noon
day prayer service for soldiers and
sailors, even before the organization
of the Ladies' Auxiliary could be COM
menced. This latter will be taken up
next Wednesday at o'clock,
and ladies of Union and the county
are urged to be present.
