Dangerous Experiments.

There is a scientific person in Eng
land just at present who apparently
spends his whole time in hanging newly
born iafants to branch of a tree, or
rather it is the infants who hang them
selves, in consequence of the scientific
PERSONS encouragement and advice The
branch is put in an infants hands, and
Is then lifted into the air, when it is
found that the infant will retain its hold
and remain suspended by its hands for
fully two minutes. The object of this
performance is to show that man is de-
scended from the monkey 1t is the
scientific persons opinion that if an in
FAINT instinctively hangs by its hands
from a branch of tree it is because it
has inherited fondness for that athletic
sport from its simian ancestors.
This is all very well; but when the
scientific persons practices come to the
ears of the mothers of the infants with
whom the experiments have been made
it is probable that he will somewhat
change his opinion as to the descent of
man and will adopt the view that man
has been developed. on his mothers side.

COUNTY OFFICIALS.
THE AUSTRALIAN BALLOT Law
MANDATORY.

The county court of Gillian county
have, on the ground OF economy, r, fused
to provide polling booths, as prescribed
by the new Australian ballot law. As
we are jointly interested with Gillian
county in the election of member of
congress, state senator, a circuit Judge,
district attorney and member of the
state board of equalization, it should not
be considered impertinance on our part
If we insist that the new law makes the
providing of compartments or booths
where the elector, ,Smay prepare his bal
lot with absolute secrecy mandatory and
not discretionary with the county court. +.
Section 56 of the Australian ballot law.
which is the only election law now in
force in the state says in part ''He,"
(theNsherifO shall furnish in the manner
directed by such county court, suffi-
cient number of such compartments.
shelves, or tables in or at which electors
may conveniently prepare their ballots
for voting, so that in the preparation
thereof each elector may be screened
from the observation of other persons.
The arrangement shall be such that
neither the ballot boxes, OF the compart-
ments, shelves or tables, or the electors
while preparing their ballots, shall be
hidden from view of those just outside
the said guard rail, or from the Judges
and yet the same shall be far enough re-
moved and so arranged that the elector
may conveniently prepare his ballot for
voting with absolute secrecy. There
shall be provided in each polling place
not less than one such compartment.
shelf or table for every forty electors to
vote and each polling place shall have at
least three such compartments, shelves
or tables" Thus the law very clearly
prescribes the manner in which an cleo
ton is to be conducted and in section g
1T lays down the principle that "all gen
eral or special elections hereafter held in
this state shall he conducted under the
provisions of this act'' ii Gillian
county ignores the law one result will
follow, that is, the entire vote of the
county will be declared void and the
present county and precinct officers will
hold their places for two years more.

urilization of Niar.r..


It is quite likely that the first large
contract the company which is to sup
ply power from Niagara Falls will take
for tho delivery of power at distance
from its central station win be to Light
the city of Buffalo This win require
5000 horse power. The present value of
a horse power generated from steam in
Buffalo is $35 per annum. The COM
pany is now willing to contract to fur
nish on its grounds at Niagara Falls
horse power per annum of twenty-four
hour days at these rates: For 5000
horse power, $40 per horse power: for
$500, $10.50; for 1000, $11; and so on
down to 300 horse power, for which there
will be charged gel per horse power per
annum.
If there be not very great loss of
power In the transmission to Buffalo, it
seems very likely that the company will
have no difficulty in undertaking any
concern now using steam as the motive
power for the electric lights, as the loss
by transmission is considerably less than
20per cent. About the use of water power
of the great falls in Buffalo within year
or so there can be no doubt When it
shall be brought to New York is another
matter, but about that there are not SO
many elements of improbability as to
excite men to scoff, for power has al
ready been transmitted electrically a

sonable economy my.-Harper's Weekly.

Where Land Brings Fabu1o,x Pr


A chronicler of the days of the good
Haroun-al-Raschid, seated on minaret
of his paradise, with list of New York
real estate quotations spread out before
him, would be seized with an impulse
to write the story of our prosperity in
jeweled characters --on cloth of gold.
And if he should describe Manhattan as
an island overlaid with precious metals
and incrusted with diamonds, there
would be little fault to find with the
metaphor beyond its audacity. In a
down town district, but short time
ago, land sold for $4,000 per frontage
foot, the entire lot, 20 by 100 feet, bring
ing $40O, 900. Up town, in choice neigh
borhood. about the same time, S5O. .OO0
was the price paid for frontage of
20 feet by 100 feet in depth. Thus have
the inexorable demands of traffic and
the needs of huddling thousands for
sleeping room and shelter transmitted

into auriferous strata whose value stated
in figures becomes almost too dazzling
for belief.-Harper's Weekly.

The second congressional district OF
this state is largely republican. Hence
the nominee for representative of the
republican party, whoever he may be,
is almost certain to be elected. Upon
the republicans, therefore. rests the
responsibility of choosing a man who
will best serve the interest of the Inland
Empire and the whole state. If Eastern
Oregon can unite to name such man
his nomination will be assured, but care
should be taken that the Simon, Port
land ring is not allowed to dictate the
nominee. We want man devoted to
the interests of Eastern Oregon in gem
eral and to an open river in particular.
OF all the republican candidates named
from this side the mountains the
CHRONICLE gives the decided preference
to w. r. Ellis. He has an excellent
record both as public servant of the
people and private citizen and ii he is

lighted by his fife, and by whom his death
was regarded as little less than a personal
loss. Mr.. Mosher was born fifer, as were
his father and grandfather before him. He
was a native of Ohio and was born in Lake
county in 1919. His grandfather served in
the Revolutionary War, his father in the
War of 1912, and he completed the family
war record by nearly two years service in
the Union army during the Civil War.
Each of the three generations furnished q
filter in the armies of their country, and the
grandson refused to lay his favorite instru-
ment aside when peace was restored. For
years he had been a familiar figure at
public celebrations, reunions, political
gatherings and county fairs throughout the
western reserve. and has literally flied his
way into the affections of the people of this
part of the country. 1t was at one of these
gatherings that the the attention of Painter
Willard was drawn to Mr. Mosher, who was
induced to serve as the model of the revolu-
tionary fifer. For many years Mr.. Mosher
did litrle else than visit surrounding towns,
in response to urgent requests, and no
gathering of old soldiers could be voted q
really successful and enjoyable one that did
not count among those present the venerable
old fifer of Brighton.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE bears were in
control of the stock market until the last
half hour or so of business, when there was
decided change. In the early trading IL.
shorts resumed their tactics of yesterday
and hammered the industrials mercilesslv,
American sugar came in for a large share of
attention and the stock was sold by the
ream until it touched 1859 against
1861 last night and 1917 shortly
after the opening this morning. Close
observers finally discovered that the
selling was mainly for the account,
while the brokers who took large lots were
those who do business for the Hayemeyers
and other insiders. The smaller shorts nat.
urally became alarmed and near the close,
under purchases to cover, quick rise to
1917 ensued. Brokers report an active bor-
rowing demand for Sugar as we'll as Distill-
ing and Cattle Feeding, both of which have
been raided by the same interests.
The 1rmness Of the general list while the
attack was being made upon Sugar occa-
stoned no little surprise Burlington and
Quincy alone declined as much as Is per

sorted to to bring about larger concessions.
Near the close u more confident feeling pre-
vailed and Lackawanna rose "a and Chicago
