COMMENT Of PRESS
FIGURING IT ALL OUT

There will always be a difference
of opinion as to the relative placing
of the factors entering into the sue
cess or failure at the polls. However,
the Gazette-Times dares to venture
certain conclusions in reference to
the result of yesterday.
First in the success of Mr.. Pierce
comes his W engaging personality
and splendid campaigning ability.
Without a man of his type and fight
ing capacity, it would not have been
possible for the result to have been
accomplished.
Second, the issue on which Mr.
Pierce chose to make his campaign
the lessening of taxation. Taxes touch
everybody, and all the natives sit up
and take notice when there is posi-
bic, though not necessarily probable,
relief.
Third, the reflections from repub-
lican ranks due to the Compulsory
school bill and the breaking away
resulting from the activities of the
Khan fight in the primaries and the
splendid organization work of this
body
Fourth, the fact that Mr. Olcott,
his opponent, has v been regard
ed as a republican organization man
of sufficient certainty as to bring
him the enthusiastic support of the
leading workers in the republican
organization
Fifth, a resentment in the minds
of many at the presentation of the
record of Mr.. Pierce with the impu-
tations attached.
Sixth, the general discomfort
throughout the country born of a
combination of circumstances, and in
many instances without reason, ex-
cept that periodically there is a dis
position to swat the fellow in Office.
Seventh, a feeling on the part of
many that Mr.. Olcott has been in
state office quite a while.
Doubtless there were many other
factors contributing to the success
of Mr.. Pierce, but inquiry before
and after leads the Gazette Times to
put the leading ones in the order
stated. 1t will be the disposition OF
many to arrange these in order Of
Importance on the basis of their owl
feelings. In case one was moved by 6
certain factor more than another, If
all probability the disposition viii
be to magnify that as the factor
contributing most to the attitude O.
others.-Corvallis Gazette-T Times.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY for 1922

What a great thing it would be if
all the musical geniuses thought of
the mob an wrote for the mob an
if the fellows that think they're must
cal geniuses thought of the mob an
didn't write for the mob. Music lifts
the soul, it inspires to action, it sti-
mulates in war, and comforts the
souls of the afflicted. A thousand
souls are more important than one
soul, an the mob is being born, is
growing up an is dying every day.
Classical music may be all right in
its way, but who knows it? When the
long-haired critic laughs because
you don't know the definition Of
classical music, slip this yer to
him: classical music is music that
is not popular"

When you see a Teller a-mopin' a
round, a-huntin' for somethin' that's
on the ground,-that never could
whistle or sing a song,-you can bet
a doughnut there's somethin' wrong!
When a'feller is huntin' fer things Of
worth, in the dirty filth of the heart
less earth,-and can't aspire to the
stars in sight, you can safely bet that
he amt built right!
God loves the man that can lift
his face with a constant faith in the
higher place. 50. Whose step is
timed to obey His will, and who amt
afeared of the path uphill. .

AFTER THE BATTLE

The election is wei and the can
didates are now winners and losers.
The outstanding feature of the re-
suits is the success which attended
those who had the khan backing. In
city and state they won out with but
few exceptions. Party lines were OBJ
liberated and other issues and con-
siderations were subordinated inso-
far as the major contests were con-
cerned.
To the victor belongs the spoils,
and a part of the spoils is the right
to celebrate and receive the congrat-
ulations of the losers. So be it. They
have the reins of government. May
they handle them successfully. -

ing cases, and other facilities for
handling mail lie practically idle,
and just after 5 p. m. they are taxed
beyond their capacity, If people
would simply change their mailing
habits 10 the extent of depositing
their mail even two hours earlier
than they do at present, 1t would
revolutionize the Postal Service.
This article Is written in the hope
that many people will adopt the idea
Of paying better attention to their
mail matter.
After all, the post Office is the
great public servant, and it be-
hooves every citizen Of the country
to make that servant as efficient as
possible.
Much Of the criticism leveled at
the post office is due to the careless
ness of the general public.

First Assistant Postmaster General.

burning match. Consequently, the
heat thus developed must be utilized
without waste and to the best advan-
tage, concentrating it where it is
most wanted. That is upon things or
persons, not on the insensate walls.
The essence of the household electric
heater is, therefore, direction and o n
centration of a very high degree of
temperature.
The electric heater of the highest
and most efficient type, therefore, fol-
lows the same laws as light. Heat
can be radiated and passed through
space with little loss. The suns rays
come to us that way. By making a
heater that will operate at a very
high temperature within the capacity
oil a lamp socket and mounting this
in the focus of a highly polished cop
per reflector, the highest degree of
heat efficiency has been obtained.
Such a radiator will t..ke a small
quantity of electricity and turn every
bit of it into heat which can then be
delivered with the least possible loss
at the exact point to be heated.

49,
STOP THIS WASTE!
25 900 900 Pieces of Mail Annually
Are Delayed or Not Delivered atsAll
Because They Are Incorrectly Ad-
dressed or Improperly Packed.
The postal authorities call our at
tention to the fact that there are
$4,000 900 pieces Of mail that they
must handle three to seven times
oftener than they would have to hand
lie them If they had been properly
prepared.
And even after they have exhausted
every means of Identification and sal
wage they succeed in delivering only
slightly more than one-fifth Of that
amount.
And this does not include vast
quantities of circulars and news
papers which are not properly ad-
dressed, and which are destroyed be-
cause they can not be delivered.
In Chicago there is one building
that is used as a storage place for
mail of obvious value and for mail
of first class which cannot be deliver
ed. Twice a year the contents are auc
toned off, because there Is no way
of finding the owners. In this build
ing are bins Of shoes, quantities Of
clothing, dress goods, automobile
parts and tires, sporting goods, suit
cases-everything from a bird cage
to a mouse trap. These are lost to
both the one who sent them and the
one who should receive them because
somebody was careless in tying a
knot, or used fimsy wrapping paper,
or put on a defective address.
Nearly 300 employees are engaged
in correcting the common, prevent
able errors Of the people. The only
reaso the post office a stand this
drain of carelessness upon its re-
sources is that the people pay the
bill.
There ought to be a general cam
paign of education with the object
Of impressing upon the people the
Importance Of properly preparing and
addressing anything they put into
the mail box.
Another waste, caused by sheer
thoughtlessness, arises from the cus-
tom of many business houses holding
their mail until the close Of the bust

In Oregon it was a most remark
able election. The most remarkable
in the history of the state. Oregon
has a right to elect a republican on
registration by 10000 majority. And
vet Pierce overcame this and was
elected by about 10000 according to
present returns. What did it do and
how was it done? Did Pierce have the
power of the press behind himY Did
he have the speakers? Did he have
the money? No, he had none of these
Everything was against him but the
voters. The united press of Oregon
was for Olcott. The Oregon delega-
ton from congress was brought home
to fight for him. The money for ad-
vertising and propaganda was against
him. Pierce was alone. He spoke in
nearly every county in the state. lie
said we ought to try and teduce taxes
Olcott said poo-poo, it can't be done
And then the religious fight entered
into it. Olcott made his fatal mistake
Just before the primary election when
he issued his religious edict. These
things combined to make the election
a rather remarkable one. The power
of the press went as nought, The in
fuence of money was swept aside.
| There was mental revolt, A silent
protest and Pierce almost single
handed and alone was caught in the
tidal wave of political revolt and
swept into office. Blue Mountain

activities to any one particular line
of rascality. On Sunday night they
entered the yard Of George Watkins,
who resides next to the scales near

around his chicken yard to permit
of entrance, and then broke into
the chickon house. They carried
away II pullets weighing from S to
8 pounds each and having a value Of
about $40. The thieyery probably
took place in the carly morning
hours, as Mr.. Watkins says he was
up at o'clock and that everything
was found all right.
