Perhaps we may suspect this moderation
Is dictated by business prudence since the
readers Of the Record, being chiefly doc
tors, would tolerate nothing In the way Of
medical" advertisement that seemed
exaggerated. You could sell doctor an
oyervalued piece OF Zeal estate or an all
wool suit OF clothes worth five dollars but
claimed TO be worth ten. But you
couldn't do business with him by claim
ing too much for a medical product. You
can't fool his professional intelligence

IL considered as a possible absence of
guarantee by medical journal of the
statements made by its advertisers We
find an editorial in the current issue OF
our esteemed contemporary, the Atlantic
Medical Weekly, which demands TO know
"who fathers all these absurd ana ridicu-
lous statements that appear in the medical
press, " said statements being prescrip-
tions, remedies, cures, and methods of
treatment generally, certain of which our
medical contemporary denounces as fakes
and frauds and liable to do serious injury
to whoever tries them-and yet they are
the offerings of physicians and are backed
by publication in the medical press
which is why the Weekly grieves, as IL is
justified in doing.
We do not design to be fiippant in thus
treating DIR. Harris suggestive and valued

common with others of its contemporaries.
by seeking TO discover a mote elsewhere.
1t is only our purpose to indicate that the
controversy covers wide field and we
don't yet know who shall be responsible
for fixing the limits. If we were sick we
should appeal to the best doctor we knew
to guide us. In business and the ordinary
affairs of life, including the running of
newspaper. we should defer to him as
commonly an intelligent and wholesome
minded man aud good citizen, but we
should want to hear from others as well
before being bound by his suggestions
even though the matter might be in
directly related to his profession.
And by the way, we know we shall not
be misunderstood by the cutting of some
parts in publishing the editorial article of
the Record to which Dr. Harris makes
reference, since we are sure he will agree
with us that some Of it is probably not at
all suitable to publication i'm daily
newspaper. Medical papers print somo
things that we all agree should be kept
out of the columns of daily newspaper.

NEW REGENTS IRE BaHED.
Governor Rogers Appoints the
Three New Col1egeRegents.
Two are whitman County Men,
One from Lincoln County.

Last Saturday afternoon Cover.
nor Rogers appointed the three new
regents of the agricultural college,
naming ex-senator r G. McCros-
key, of Garfield; II. w. Garfield, of
Colfax, and Geo. Witt, of Harring
ton Lincoln county.
The appointments give general
satisfaction to the friends of the
college. Mr.. McCroskey has al.
ways evinced great interest in the
work of the college, and his APP
pointment was wise one. He is
a man of business ability, and is
honest and earnest in all his work
Politically he is q democrat. The
other two men are populists, Mr..
Garfield being representing at
torney of Whitman county, but not
allowing his political beliefs to color
and influence his actions. Mr..
Witt was a member of the last leg :

Trouble With Grain Grades.

A report from Garfield says the
new grades of grain established by
State Grain Inspector Wright are
paralyzing the grain business of
this country and the warehouses on
the Northern Pacific road at Gar
field have closed in conseQuence.
Other warehouses are expected to
close unless something is done to
change the grades. Under the new
ruling it takes SO pounds to make
a bushel of No. wheat insteod of
58 pounds, as formerly. No. 2 is
worth 3 cents less than No. l, and
much wheat that has been graded
as No. l by the warehouses will
only bring No. 2 grade and the
price they can get causes them to
lose money OH the purchase.
The Garfield hardware company
has closed its warehouses and J. lC.
Lawrence, manager of the farmer s
wareh buses at this place and Eden
has gone to Portland with samples
of wheat and if they do not go as
No. | he will close the warehouses
on his return. \
Some dealers are inclined to
blame the state grain inspector for
this, while Others cay it is steal
on the part of the grain exporters
at Tacoma and Portland and that
the grades these exporters give will
bankrupt the dealers of this coun-
try who have been issuing graded
certificates for wheat stored in their
warehouses.
p. W. Lawrence, ex state grain
inspector and manager of the Gar
field hardware company's ware.
houses, received samples of No. 2
wheat from Tacoma exporters Sat
urday. These samples were better
grain than any Mr. Lawrence has
in his warehouses and he said if the
samples sent him were of No. 2
wheat his would 60 as No. 3 or re-
jected, and after a consultation it
was decided 10 close the warehouses
upti thorough understanding can
be had s-.gss.
J c. Lawrence, manager of the
farmers warehouse company's
warehouses on both roads here and
On the Northern Pacific at Eden,
TOOK sample of his gram and went
e Portland Saturday to see what
can he dom. If the same grades
are made ri Portland as at Tacoma
these warehouses will also be closed.
Many dealers, fearing such a
stato of affairs as now confronts
thena, refused to grade grain stored
with Them and mark ed each mans
sacks and piled them separately.
This has been unsatisfactory, and
these warehousemen got little grain.
The recent Developments prove this
to have been the onl y wise method
Of receiving grain Oh store.

The Fool and 1:,;s Mcn,.

There is another old saying that
"the gods give us everything for
toll" Those who are outside Of the
class of fools ought to ponder this
saying. There is no royal road to
anything. W. get everything by
toll. We get it in no other way. The
notion that you can drop 800 in a
slot and draw out $25 week profits
is so utterly preposterous, SO wildly
absurd, that it is difficult to think
of any man in his right senses be-
ing deceived by it, But many are
deceived by it. To all to whom this
warning may come, we say,
Don't" There is no operation Of
anything in civilization that can
yield such profits. The suggestion
that somebody has mysterious in
formation by which he knows of
deals and combinations that are
making, and SO shrewdly buys ahead
and then turns around and buys
back, and thus catches the market
coming and going, isquite of a piece
with the fantastic notion that profits

He Loved His Dog.

William G.. Saunders, a laborer
from Feltham, was summoned for
keeping a dog without a license.
The Defendant-I'm guilty, but
I've got a license. I pawned my
coat for the dorg. There's the tick
ct for the coat. Why, not long ago
you fined me ten bob for 'avin the
dorg without a muzzle, and I went
to prison for seven days for this ere
tyke.
The Chairman-Why do you keep
the dog if you can't afford it4
The Determinations I love the
dog, and that's more than some Of
you do on this bench. I picked the
dorg up on the road when it was
'ungry, and I'll stick to it. I love
it and pawned my coat for it, and
you can fine me 91 OF 92. It makes
no difference. i.
The Chairman-You will have to
pay 10 shillings and costs or go to
prison.
The Defendant-Then I'll go to
prison, for / amt got the money,
and I love that ERE dorg.
