An Unsound Law.

Constitutional Amendment fixing le-
gal rate OF interest in Oregon.
S14 Yes; S15 No. Vote No.
This Measure is to be voted on at the
general election to be held on Novem-
Der ., 1920. and is the most deserving
of any measure on the ballot to receive
an unqualified NO from the voters Of
Oregon, Money has it's price the same
as any other commodity and that price
is governed by the law of Supply and
Demand. Today there is the greatest
demand for money In this country that
we nave known for years, not only for
development purposes alone but for the
repayment Of maturing mortgages on
farms.
This demand for money by the farm
ers is the strongest known in years.
From the Big Bend district Of Eastern
Washington where farmers were Of
fered money by the mortgage brokers
at rates from 5h to I per cent as re-
Gently as a year ago, but the tables are
reversed today and the farmers are
offering from s to sly per cent for
money to renew their maturing mort
cages. The farmers of the famous
Twin Falls and Idaho Falls districts OF
Southern Idaho. the cream of the irri-
gated districts, are offering 9 per CEN
for money to pay of their mortgages.
What chance has the Oregon farmer
to obtain money at the maximum rate
under the proposed law In competition
with such offerings? What Is going
to happen when the lenders withdraw
their money from the state and loan
elsewhere at more remunerative rates?
The courts will be cluttered with fore
closures and the state will be covered
with farmerless farms.

There is a fine feeling OF friendship

pie of Grant county to express this
friendship in a very substantial way

fair2 The people Of Harvey are oppos-
ed to this measure. And they have a
right to be, and they have a right to

We ought to make the opposition I'M

Different
 and Why

There is just as much differ ence in mowers as there Is Tn potatoes or apples. Apples at a dis tance may look more or less alike, but to taste them proves the difference It's the same in mOwers-they may look more or less alike-two wheels. tongue, etc. but it's the little differ ences, even though they may be small, that add years to the life of the mower The Mccormick mower is different from other mowers in that it has cutter bar that does not sag. buckle or drag; knife that makes a clean shear cut; a pitman that absorbs the vibration and the long pitman gives better knife action; the main gear is strong and durable; countershaft has support at each end: a quick acting lever, a foot lever that works easy. light draft; floating cutter bar and high life.
 It's these little differences that to own a Mccormick once-always a Mc- Cormick.

No Work Likely 10 be Done Mt Lewes
for the Present.

There will be no immediate work on the
dredging of the waterway between Rcho-
both Bay and the Delaware Bay, known
as the Lewes canal, from present indi
cations. Bids were opened at the office
of the L. 5. district engineer on July Is,
but Colonel +. \. Johnston, t. 5. dis
trict engineer, recommended that the one
bid received be rejected, as it was too
high.
The bid from the Delaware Dredging
Co. was 81 cents per cubic yard The
rejection Of the bid was based on the fact
that the $50 900 available for the project
would not be great enough to do sufficient
