Tile progressive people Of Mortified
are planning TO have a jubilee over the
prosperity Of the town and the board Of
trade are making arrangements for 4
banquet to be served III the near future,
some time after a current Of electricity
goes into Mortified for day electric
power The banquet will 81 largely in
the nature of a celebration over the in
creased advantages in electric power and
also over the securing Of the large con-
tract for cutting the granite to be used
in the Washington union depot The
idea, Of this jubilee banquet is a good
one There is scarcely better opportu-
nifty for the get together spirit to be
fostered than through these gatherings
Of citizens, each working for the adj
yancement Of his town. They give an
opportunity for the expression Of the
various views with regard to the good
Of the community and an opportunity
sometimes for the introduction Of new
IDEAS. Northfield's latest move has all
the marks Of progessiveness.

This idea Of tie FARMERS at the
legislature banding together to promote
legislation il their own behalf is all
well enough, viewed ii its proper light.
But the wise men that lead the move
nent win do well to steer safely clear
oil even the borderland Of special class
legislation. Some Of cur friends, IN the
eyuberance Of new.fomd power, are
dwelling with much JUNCTION upon the
notion that the farmers have at last
entered into their own and are now
about to run the state" Nothing could
more quickly be fatal to the legitimate
interests Of the farmers than to have
this idea get into general circulation.

II was explicitly stated at the meeting
for the organization Of the farmers last
Wednesday evening, that the organiza

White Of Woodstock, who was treasurer
Of the organization two years ago, told
those present that It was not organized

and that he believed it would be the
worst thing the organization could do
if il were to 20 into that narrow sphere

Opposition to automobiles is usually
not well considered nor is it always
wen founded. It Is true that many
motorists are guilty Of trying to mo-
nopoize the whole road, and they have
been the cause Of many accidents More
active work on the part of the police
authorities would put stop TO this,
and the motorists themselves should be
taught the fact that Others besides
themselves have right to the use Of
the road At the same time indiscrim.
mate abuse and opposition will accom-
plish nothing good. The motor car is
one of the best means Of transporta-
ton, and every effort should be made
to develop and utilize it. At present
| it is little more than an expensive toy,
but the time Is not far distant when it
will be as seryieeable means Of trans
portation as the trolley car and the
train For this reason it should be
welcomed rather than opposed. Wor-

Both Want a Decree of
Divorce Entered.
CONTROVERSY OVER PROPERTY
Plaintiff Alleges Abusive Treatment
by Defendant, Which He Claims
to Be Untrue.

An interesting divorce case was
heard today by Judge Brents in the
superior court. The parties to the act
ion were Mary Long and c. M. Long
residents of Touchet. The case was of
more than passing interest to the peo-
pie of Touchet and nearly half the
attendance on the court as witnesses.
Both parties to the suit were willing
tered, but controversy arose over the
distribution Of the real and personal
property accumulated since the mar
riage.
The matter is now in the hands of
Judge Brents and it will probably be
several days before a decision is rem
dered.
In her complaint the plaintiff alleged
that they were married in Walla Walla
July y, 1900, and since have been man
and wife. She AYERS that her husband
has continuously. since their marriage,
treated her in most cruel and In
manner, being guilty Of using

ward her until her life became burden

abusive treatment any longer she was
forced to leave the home. She asked
that she be granted an absolute di
vorce and that the real and personal
property that had been accumulated
since their marriage be equally divided
between herself and her husband.

Long denied that he had i'll treated the
plaintiff, but had been a kind, consid-
crate and indulgent husband. She had
