DIRECT LEGISLATION NOV
MENTS.
MOVE

It is not yet certain what has been
the result on the Direct Primary and
Local Option Laws or the State Print.
er Amendment
The latetr has probably carried,as
It got the full support of the agitation
for fat salaries,
The Direct Primary law was voted
for because people were in favor OF
the principle. but not because they
wanted this law.
Most voters have never read the
law, but voted for sentiment, as II
seemed fair and right.
All this goes TO prove that any kind
OF a law that can get sentiment back
OF It can be adopted on popular
vote
It indicates that the people are even
less careful about reading a bill than
members of the legislature before vot
ing on the measure.
But all these matters must be
learned in time by the people, and the
taxpayers will pay the penalties OF
sentimental policies, just as they did
in Iowa and Kansas.

THE RISE OF RICHARD LAFFIN

Less than twenty-five years ago,
says writer in Everybcdy's Magazine
Dick Latin was "clerking' in furni-
ture store in Somervllle, Mass, at
$40 week. What was his ambition?
To be a horse-car conductor at two
dollars day. Dick argued that con-
ductor could rise. At nineteen his
dream came true When he wasn't
on his car, he was studying the road
and all its routes and branches. to
the amusement of his fellows. But
when the company wanted a starter
at certain point, he got the job. In
year It wanted foreman and he got
the job. Young, but always studying
his business and being promoted over
older mems heads. Inspector, divis-
ion superintendent, superintendent
manager of great consolidated sys'
tenn, on he went Big salary. by the
by, but Dick was always studying. So
now he is general manager of the
Manila Electric Railway Light and
Power company. Great things to dc
there, and Dick-Mr Richard T. Laffin
gets $4,000 a year for knowing how
to do them. Not many of us can gel
$4,000 a year, but isn't there some
thing a little encouraging and instruc
tive in the rise of Dick Latin, who
was always studying, always improv
ing himself?

srANLEvs WORK IN AFRICA.

The broad features of Stanley's
work shows that it humanitarian
and economic as well as geographical
value. He was the first to give us an
approximately accurate idea of the
form and size of Victoria Nyanza, the
second largest of fresh-water lakes;
he revealed the Congo basin, of which
we had no conception, as surpassed
DIN size and in water tribute to the
sea only by the Amazon system; he
thIeaded the gloomy and almost i'm
penetrable mazes of the forest belt,
larger than most of our states; he
made over four hundred treaties with
native chiefs who learned to know him
as a man who kept his word, and the
relations of friendship and confidence
which he established paved the way
for the teacher, the merchant and
the colonial governments of Europe;
he studied the peoples and the econ
omic resources from sea to sea
through tropical Africa and incessant.
| ly proclaimed that these peoples were
capable of development, and that these
resources were worth the worlds
seeking; he called for missionary vol
unteers to go to Uganda, where today
there are ninety thousand processing
Christians. three hundred and twenty
churches, and fifty thousand persons
able to read; he preached the gospel
of humanity to the natives, used fire
arms against them, alas but only on
occasions when the existence of
his expeditions was at stake; and in
his dealings with them he set an ex-
ample of patience, mercy, and justice
that has not always been emulated.
For over twenty years he saw the
African movement impelled, not only
by his own hands, but also by ceas-
less reenforcements of strong men
and mighty influences, and he lived
fourteen years longer to see white

Is it Possible

Can we cut piano prices nearly in
two?
And by doing SO can we sell seven
night?
Here's the proposition: We had a.
man out in the surrounding territory
who had a mania for placing pianos
in peoples houses on trial, but was a
poor hand at selling them afterwards.
We have gathered all these pianos up
in this way: although none have been
used over year.
All of them are as good as new ex-
cept for a mar or two.
Now. you know. and we know. that
a great deal Of labor and expense
would have to be given in order to put
them in perfect condition and ship
them to our Portland store for sale.
Even then we could not get regular
prices. as we would, in common honesty
have to say they had been used.
We have decided, as the best way
out. to give Lewiston people an oppor-
tunity to secure one at not less than
cost and at very little mbore. The
stock comprises the Kingsbury. Hamil-
ton, Smith 4 Barnes pianos, and Estev.
Mason & Hamlin. Story 3 Clark organs
Some of the organs are new, and none
have been exchanged for. All of the
pianos are on our books as new stock:
never q scratch Of pen for any one
Of them. nor cent paid on any one.
Now we are determined not to have
a single organ left by Saturday night.
We cut the prices enough to sell
THEM.
And in regard to the pianos. will ship
out all unsold instruments after Satur-
day night.
No exchanges made. Nothing less
than $40 per month on piano and IS
on an organ.
This Is your opportunity. II you
have piece Of ready money or can
give good note and can make up
your mind by Saturday night.
