Ball This Season,
CHEMAWA'S LINE IS STRONG

On Christmas day the Commercial
Club football team will play its last
game OF the season with chemawa. The
team thus far has not been defeated
and It's work has been brilliant and
steady at all times. II is the ambi-
tion OF the tea INTO finish the season
without defeat. but IL Is doubtful II the
local men win show sufficient strength
to withstand the terrific attacks OF the
heavy chemawa backs led by such
men as Rube Saunders and pleker.
chemawa last Saturday succeeded In
holding down Multnomah to the small
score OF Is, and Mree times had the
hall on Multnomah's io-yard line. only
to lose Il on fumbles, The Indians
scored points by executing a very
pretty kick from the so-yard line. and
with such a kicker as Dicker stand
good chance OF repeating the trick at
Astoria. The Indians are strong fast
and heavy bunch OF football players,
They play ball from start to finish
without letting up particle, They
understand the game perfectly and all
of them are old, experienced players.
The team has been strengthened by
the acquisition of four eastern men.

and one from the Perish Indians of
California.

considered the greatest ali-around ball
player on the coast, win be pltted
against Sutton and vii, make the right
side of Chemawa's line invulnerable.
The other tackle position will be held
down by Goodwin, who will have
Painter for his opponent. Minard, AS
tlria's right tackle, will be unable to
play, on account OF severe attack OF
tonsilitis, and his absence will be a
severe loss, but Painter is counted upon
to do good work in this game. and win
doubtless meet expectations. Regan
will be at the other end, and, although
this win be his first game with As

a credltable one. and the Indians win

For long time the two year old
child of Mr.. p. L. Mcpherson. 59 N
Tenth St, Harrisburg, Pa. would
sleep but two or three hours in the
early part of the night, which made
it very hard for her parents. Her
mother concluded that the child had

PURPOSE OF ADMINISTRATION

Z
is the intention of the national admin
istration to invoke the antitrust
law against every form of corporation,
regardless OF conditions and the pos
sible effect upon the business of the
country, can find no ground for such
fear in anything that has been said
bv President Roosevelt or done by
Attorney General Knox under execu
tive direction. There has been moth
ing in word or in action Oh the part
of the president or the attorney gener-
al to warrant tine belief that they in.
tend any action which might alarm
and unsettle the business interests of
the country and give check to pros
perity. In his annual messages to
congress and in his public speeches Mr..
Roosevelt has spoken with conserva-
tism in regard to the course that
should be pursued in dealing with the
combinations. He has strongly depre-
Gated extreme and revolutionary pro-
positions, pointing out the disastrous
consequences that would result from
their application In his first mes
sage he said that 'the mechanism OF
modern businss is so delicate that OK.
treme care must be taken not to inter
fere with it in spirit of rashness or
then repeatedly expressed and there if
no reason to doubt that he still ad
heres to it,
The Washington correspondent OF
the New York Evening Post, who per
llaps speaks upon the authority of the
Department of Justice, says that no
combination will be attacked simply
because it is combination, or because
group of gamblers in the exchanges
has been caught by arise or fall of
prices He states that any combina-
tion which actually does operate in
with that deliberate intent. and which
must inevitably SO operate. even if it
has not yet produced such results, and
any formed for the purpose of restrain.
ing trade, even if the consummation OF
that purpose has thus far been checked
by circumstances. will be regarded as
proper object for attack. ''The
aim Of the administration is to fore
stall such "a condition of things as it
foresees now to be possible, when, for
instance, all oopsumers of anthracite
coal must go to one man for their sup
plies, all shippers of merchandise
must go to one man for their tanspor-
tation. every tourist going abroad
must apply to one man for his steamer
berth. and the like. In short, the
purpose of the administration is to
enforce the law against those combina-
tions which in suppressing competition
distinctly tend toward monopoly.
In attacking such combinations
there is every reason to expect that
the administration will be as aggres-
sive and vigorous as the circumstances
and the authority conferred upon it
will permit. But there is no ground
for spprehending a policy that might
prove destructive to the business in
terests of the country and it is safe to
say that no corporation which is CON
ducting its business on fair principles
is in any danger of being attacked by
the national administration, which is
not less anxious than any other body
of citizens to conserve those legitimate
conditions which are essential to
national progress and prosperity. -

JOHNSON GRASS A NUISANCE.
Farmer OF Louisiana Starts a Move.
ment to Exterminate the
Trouble xome Growth.

Congress was asked at it's last ses.
zion to make an appropriation to be
used in getting rid of the water hya-
::nth in the streams of Louisiana and
it voted the money. At this session
It will be asked to make another ap-
preparation to assist the farmers IN
lighting an invasion Of Johnson grass,
reports New Orleans exchange.
While the water hyacinth is dam
ming up the streams the grass is at
work in the fields, crowding out the
rice and corn crops. Johnson grass
comes from the far west, brought by
the railroads, it is said, and, once &C.
climated, it has thrived better here
than in it's birthplace. In the west
the plant is killed annually by frost,
but in southern Louisiana there is
little or no frost to keep it down.
For the past two years the sugar
planters have been complaining of the
damage done by it. The efforts to get
rid of it by ordinary means having
failed, the legislature was appealed
to for relief.
The head of this movement was Will
liam Polk, member of the legislature
from Rapides, who introduced a bill
declaring that the grass was being
scattered over the entire state by the
railroads. and, therefore, requiring
them to keep all grass along their
lines cut down as on a lawn. This
lseasure, it was insisted, would pre-
vent the grass from going to seed, as
it now does, and thus retard, if not
prevent, it's spread.
The railroads bitterly opposed the
act, pointing out that it would require
them to keep thousands of lawn-mow-
ers constantly at work and would SUBJ
ject them to a great and burdensome
expense. 1t was also declared that
there was no proof that the grass
could not be got rid of by the farm
ers themselves if they went about it
in the right way. The bill was de.
feated.
But, although defeated in the legis.
lature, the campaign against the trou-
blesome grass is not ended. Mr.. Polk
became very popular among the farm
ers through his efforts in their behalf
and was strong candidate for con-
gress. He made Johnson grass one of
the issues of the campaign, and since
he was defeated the issue has not been
abandoned. Now congress will be ap-
pealed to.

The Railroads of Kansas.

Concretely it may be stated that
there are 10,4S3 miles of railroads in
the state, and 5O,55s employees, re-
ceiving salaries aggregating over $780,
100000. The total mileage of all rail-
roads operated in Kansas follows:

only amounted to $2,7S7. The rail-
roads paid $1,96S,965 in taxes in Kan
sas. The Santa Fe was the greatest
taxpayer, having paid S7O2,44O. The
Missouri Pacific was next, paving
$421, 500. The Rock Island was third

fourth, with $122, 422. During the
year SIS employees were killed and ITO
injured in Kansas; 5 passengers were

GREAT NUMBER OF BABIES.
All Born In Certain Minute Place d
i'm Line Would Reach Around
the Globe.

Men who laboriously labor over sta
tistics are almost unconsciously
classed among those toewhom a good
hearty laugh is an unknown quantity.
They belong, at least in the popular
mind, to the class which, in itsssei-
entific enthusiasm, can, with no fin-
herent sense of IMPROPERLY, botanic
on a mothers grave" One of this gen.
try, who is bachelor, has gone to the
trouble to inform the world of this i'm
portant fact: If all the babies, born
at certain minute, were arranged
in line in their cradles they would
extend around the globe, says the Chi
cago Tribune.
With the instinct of friend whose
pulse is evidently kept beating with
circulating fluid deriving its actuat-
ing influence from an overlooking ice
water tank, he seriously asks a hui
man world of average sympathetic
tendencies to imagine these same I'M
fortunate babies to be carried past a
given point in coherent procession,
at the rate of 20 minute, in their
mothers arms, one by one, the awful
line being kept up night and day until
the last hour of the IL months of
year has elapsed.
Having grasped the full Importance
OF this wide and awe-inspiring propo-
sition, this same scientific statistically
inclined sharp in cold blood requests
us to remain calm while he informs
us that, as matter of mathematical
calculation, he has iHdisputably dem
onstrated the undeniab BILE fact that the
reviewer at his post of inspection at
the end of year would have seen
only sixth of the supply of the in
FAINT industry of the current year.
Then, with the Indifference to be ex-
pected only from an unmarried man
OF science, he coolly adds, as if it
we're of no consequence to the impa-
tent mothers and kids at the end of
the line, that when the years supply
was drawing to a close there would
be rear guard. not of infants, but of
romping six-year-old boys and girls.

The Best Kansas News.
Kansas l.. Getting More Rain.

In a meteorological summary of
1902, DR.. f. H. Snow, of the University
of Kansas, says: Among the no.
table meteorological features of the
year 1902 were the cool summer, the
warm spring and autumn, the abun-
dant and well-distributed rainfall,
the lowest aggregate wind velocity
on record and the latest date of the
first killing frost of autumn. The
total rainfall has been but twice ex-
ceeded and then only by few hun
dred thousandths of an inch-in 1876
and 1888. 1t is fact to be empha-
sized that the average annual rainfall
at this station has now passed &c
inches, notwithstanding the great de-
ficiency of 1901. There is no doubt
that the rainfall of Kansas is slowly
increasing, while the wind velocity is
slowly decreasing points of
great Importance to the welfare of
the state"

The Bride wa. HystericaI.

At Hutchinson New Years eve. just
as Prof. r. NJ. Scott and Miss Lillian
Randall had reached the point in the
ceremony that united them in the
holy bonds of wedlock, the cry of
fire" from one of the guests brought
the ceremony to a sudden end.
Smoke was seen pouring in great
volumes from the ceiling above their
heads. and in moment the room was
Illuminated by flames. The groom
rushed away to give the alarm of
fire, while the bride, overpowered by
what she considered to be an i'll
omen, sank onto a sofa and cried,
despite the threatening flames. The
fire department soon extinguished
the flames and the wedding party
again resumed their places and the
ceremony was completed.

OIL OF Rattlers.

In Pennsylvania the oil of rattle
snakes is preserved most carefully az
L liniment especially good for sore
joints and for rheumatism. In pro-
curing the oil the dead snake is nailed
lead and tail to board and cut open.
The fat is taken out and laid upon a
.loth in the hot sun, from which the
Uttered oil drips into jar. From fear
hat the reptile may have bitten itself,
the clear oil is tested by dropping a
portion of it into milk. If it floats in
,ne globule it is regarded as unaffect-
I'd. If, on the other hand. it breaks
nto beads and curdles the milk, it is
judged to be poisonous and thrown

Kansas Furnished Most.

In addition to furnishing SIS per
cent. of all the cattle and calves re-
ceived at the Kansas City market dur
ing the past year, Kansas supplied
100000 head of sheep, more than any
other one state, and % per cent. of
the total receipts for the year. The
receipts of sheep from Kansas fell
only 400 head short of those of 1901.
A year ago when the market was
flooded with pigs and brood sows
from Kansas, it was predicted that
the sunflower state would have very
few hogs to market in 1902. And yet
the receipts of hogs from the state
were 100000, or SO per cent. of the
total receipts. The decrease from
the receipts of 1901 was $4,000.

Risked Her Life for Baby.

At the home of Herbert Levitt at
Emporia an upset lamp caused an ex-
plosion which resulted almost fatally
for Mrs. Levitt. In trying to prevent
the flames setting fire to the cradle
which held siX-months'-old child, Mrs.
Levett's clothing caught fire and she
was perhaps fatally burned. She
put out the fire, however, and her
child was uninjured.
