When Judge Parker Does Talk

1t is necessary for Judge Parker to
have something TO talk about since he
refuses to be interrogated on politica'
questions, and he has a story OF a
young man in Savannah named Du
Bose, who invited his sweetheart
to take a buggy ride with him
The young woman had a very fetch
ing lisp. When they reached rath-
er lonesome bit of road the young man
announced:
This is where you have to pay toll.
The toll is either kiss or a squeeze

Work on the olive Ditch has Begun

The party of surveyors under the sup
ervision of E. E. Hall of Seattle have
about completed the preliminary work
on the Olive ditch from the intake at
Mission Creek to Browns Flat above
town.
The first actual work on the ditch
was commenced Wednesday morning
at the headgate. There will be a large
force of men and teams at work by the
early part of next week and the work
will then be pushed rapidly to compile
tion. Mr. Olive estimates that the
ditch will be completed in about three
months. When work is under way, it
is stated that about 90 teams and from
fifty to sixty men will be employed in
the construction. This will be big
thing for Mission and the pay roll will
mean much to our local merchants. An
enterprise which will employ this num-
Der of men for the greater part OF the
summer should meet with the moral
and financial support of every man in
this valley. NOT only lnlS, Duu III Will
mean much to our town when this large
area of 5000 acres OF almost totally nom
productivh land is reclaimed and made
the most productive in the state.
What is most needed in this vicinity
is larger population and the Olive
ditch will mean the addition of many
new family for whom there is at present
no room.
Mr.. Olive has been untiring in his
efforts to secure for Mission the build
ing of this irrigating canal and his eff
forts have met with success. He has
let the contract for portion of the eX
cavating, but will superintend most of
the construction work himself.-Mis-
sion journal.

upon his examination, he shall be sat
isfed that the land is more suitable for
agriculture than for timber, and that
the best interests of the forest reserve
will be protected by allowing settle
ment on the land, the homesteader will
be allowed to take up the land. This
will be allowed only to actual home
steaders, who live on the land the full
time and make improvements. Any
indication of an attempt to take such
land for any other purpose than bona
fide homestead purposes will subject
the land to forfeiture.
BY thus allowing settlements to be
made in some of the agricultural valleys
in the forest reserve the forest super
intendents and supervisors believe the
interests of the forest will be conserved.
Such settlers will assist in watching the
reserves for violations of the fire,
game and timber laws and will make
easier the task Of patroling the forest
under their supervision.

MAY Enter Forest Reserve

BY a recent act of Congress, settlers
will be permitted to take up as home
steads such lands in the forest reserves
as are adapted to agricultural pur-
poses. II, ,-bor tho
preliminaries are arranged and the new
order is in force, any person desiring 10
enter forest reserve land may make APP
plication to the land office for home
stead.
The matter will then be referred to
the department and an examination be
made by the forest superintendent II

The Ideal VS. The Real
written for the Echo)
Continued from last week.

Independent of simple drudgery,
there are several honorable and legiti-
mate modes of obtaining this result:
First:-All the forms of loans by
which one obtains the promises of an
other, secured by his lands and prop
erty to repay at stated times the money
loaned, with interest and discount.
Second:-By the exercise of superior
shrewdness selling to ones friends and
neighbors everything whose selling
value is decreasing, and buying of ones
friends and neighbors everything
where selling value is increasing.
Third:-OccupYing and controlling
some locality, instrument facility, or
department of exchange, crushing out
competition, or pooling with competi-
tors, thus becoming enabled to exact
moderate or immoderate toll from all
who wish to trade the products OF their
labor that they do not want for the
fruits of others labor that they need.
Fourth:-Occupying all the land, pos
sessing all the materials which in after
years man will want to use, fencing it
in with title deeds, or bonds for deeds,
and waiting until successive genera
tions or emigration will leave large
numbers homeless unless they buy this
land, d,-powerless unless they buy this
material.
Thus come into being monopOlies OF
all kinds. Monopolies OF land from the
homesteader on the frontier, excluding
humanity from his tract of sand and
cactus with a receivers receipt; the
townste adventurer, hosting his pirat-
ical banner over every crossroads, post
office, county seat and railroad station,
to the ducal owner of ten thousand acres
and the owner OF a city corner lot; mo-
nopolies of business from the merchant,
hog buyer, lawyer of country town, to
those who hold within their hands the
power to make or wreck railroad, to
build or dwarf a city, to bull or bear
the markets of the world.
In the effort to acquire and retain
these monopolies arise competition,
fierce, destructive, among farmers
seeking to beat each other at the mar
ket, among laborers struggling to an
ticipate each other in getting service,
among merchants enticing each other 5
patronage, among doctors and lawyers
striving for each others clientage.
To prevent the reduction of wages,
prices, profits, tolls and charges by
this competition pools are formed, from
the trades unions, labor associations,
professional fee bills, mercantile agree
ments, up to the rules of boards of trade
and railroad schedules.
And the object of it all is Wharf.-The
acquisition of power, not intellectual
power, not power over dead matter
over chaos or irrational force but rela-
tive power,-over men,-superiority
supremacy.
In these various modes Of business
are employed the distinguished talents
the ripe scholarship the enterprise
aud energy of the race. Three fourths
of the waking hours of the intellectual
forces of the age is consumed in offices,
lounging in stores, loaiing on corners
haunting saloons, measuring each Others
strength, watching, the market looking
for chances to buy at less than worth
waiting for opportunities to sell for
more than worth.

Sure Cure at Last.

Monticallo, Miss, Oct. 8 (Special)
Lawrence county is in almost daily
receipt of fresh evidence that sure
cure for al Kidney Troubles has at last
been found. and that cure is Dodd's
Kidney Pills.
Among those who have reason to
bless the Great American Kidney Rem
edy is Mrs. L. E. Baggett Of this place.
Mrs. Baggett had Dropsy. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills cured her.
81 was troubled with my Kidneys"
Mrs. Baggett says in recommending
Dodd' Kidney Pills to her friends, "my
urine would hardly pass. The doctors
said 1 had Dropsy. have taken
Dodd's Kidney Pills as directed and am
now a we'll woman"
Dodd's Kidney Pills cure the kid
neys. Cured Kidneys strain all the
impurities out of the blood. This
means pure blood and sound energetic
body. Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
greatest tonic the world has ever
known.

Titles of Doubtful Origin.

Continental titles save of the high
est sort have been viewed with sus-
picion in this country, but those of
England have been accepted with al
most as implicit faith as Bank Of
England notes inspire. Yet the her
AIDS college lately made the remark
able assertion that many persons are
using bogus titles in England and that
others are using titles to which they
have not established their claim and
probably could not bring any satisfac-
tory proofs. And the editor of Dod's
Peerage admits that there are between
fifty-siX and sixty baronets whose
claims would not bear too close scru.
tiny.
For example, an ambitious and re-
tired business man named Smith may
find in some secluded part of the
country some lands formerly owned
by some extinct family of Smiths who
had possessed a title. He buys the
property, quietly claims descent and
coolly assumes the title. In London
such a course would probably be ex-
posed, but in the country people are
less suspicious. Nor is such imposture,
it seems, contrary to English law. II
appears also that many of the titles
which enjoy long standing were as
sumed in some such way. perhaps cen.

Queer Place for a Magazine.

An American traveller who explored
the northern part of Siberia states that
he found in the hut of a Korak peas
ant a picture Of Mayor Dix cut out of
a copy of Harpers Magazine. The
Mayors picture was enthroned on a
wooden shrine. and adored by the
Korak and his family as their house
hold deity.
This Is probably the most extreme
case on record OF veneration for mag
azine page. But fifty years ago in this
country it was not uncommon to find
single copy of magazine being read
by fifteen or twenty families every
month, and regarded by all as an in.
fallible authority.
1t is said that when the Shah Of
Persia visited England several years
ago it was one of his chief delights to
buy a dozen magazines and read the
pictures" AS there are only about
1900 people In Persia who can read
and write, his amazement at the num-
Der Of magazines is not surprising
