Dsps OUT excellent object lesson on bad
roads this winter may prove benefit
to US next season. We hope so. Who
ever the road supervisor may be this
year, 1t Is the opinion of people that
the work should commence at the top
of the Davidson hill and work this
way, doing what is done well on the
hills and trust The rest Of the district to
volunteer work. This plan ought to
appeal to ALL as everybody uses that
part of the road. Mr.. Woodworth has
demonstrated that fact that work well
done on the roads pays. Better build
40 rods of road right than scatter it all
along and never have any part of it
good.

Big FRUIT TREES
GROW AT BINGEN

1t has come to be the general impress
ion that fruit trees on the Pacific coast
do not attain the large size they do in
the eastern states. But over at Bingen
mot Bingen on the Rhine) on the farm
of Judge Byrkett, which was formerly
the old donation land claim of E. S.
Joslyn, there stands cherry tree which
measures 7 feet two inches in circum-
ference. On the farm is pear tree
measuring 5 feet six inches in circum-
ference, and an apple tree that requires
six feet of tape line to encircle the
trunk. These trees were planted by
Mr.. Joslyn in the early SOS. for 80
years they have stood in sod, receiving
no cultivation. they bear fruit every
year.
These are no doubt the largest fruit
trees in Klickitat county ,and it is doubt
full If any larger fruit trees can be found
in the state Of Washington. A gentle
man from the north side of the CoIum-
bia, brings in the information to indi-
cate that while White Salmon may be
waking up, Bingen deserves equal ment-
ion. Bingen is where the early straw
berries come from. "Bingen is all right"
says the gentleman, "and when the rail-
road is built down the north side of the
Columbia, where will White Salmon
be?'

the roads in this part of the valley be-

because so many organs are being

the organ trade in this neighborhood is
good. But the conditions of which
complaint Is being made are caused by
the continual running of the delivery
wagon from the Rockford store.

WOman's Daily For Chicago.

Chicago It is said will try the expert
ence of woman's daily, to be printed
for five cents copy. The advertisements
are to be restricted, and general local
news will be summarized, not printed
in full. London has tried this plan
without success, Woman do not want
feminine daily paper. The modern
newspaper is made for them as much as
for men. The advertising pages OF the
great dailies appeal to women particu-
larly. To limit advertisements and sub
stitute departments in "Science and In
vention, Domestic Economy, Hygiene,
Politics and Religion" seems hardly
likely way to secure women readers. -

Hermit Kingdom Ray Disappear
from Family of Nations.
After having been more or less buIlied
for centuries by the neighbors, Korea
seems about TO disappear from the fam
lily of nations. The process already has
begun and the next few years may see
one of the Oldest Of the ancient civiliza-
tons wiped off the map
The steps leading up to this unique re-
suit follow logically upon Japan's effort
to make the country a eolonizing ground
for its own surplus population. The
Korean emperor and his foreign minister,
Pakchisun, have resisted japanese meth
DDS Of government aud publicly denounc-
ed them as outraging all the spirits of
their noble ancestors, but without avail.
Last week japanese guards surrounded
the emperor's palace, made him prisoner
and compelled him to sign an agree
ment, Japan having previously Modified
most of his advisers with substantial
sums of money. The agreement provides
that a japanese administrator shall gov
ern Korea under the emperor" and
that all Korean treaty ports and diplo-
matte affairs shall be henceforth in Jap
dHeSe HduuS.
This is evidently the beginning of the
end for Korea, says the Chicago News
japanese armies have Oyerrun it in past
ages. For centuries it bowed in meek
submission to China and regularly sent
its ENJOYS on pilgrimages to inquire ten
derby after the well being Of China's
rulers, contemporaneous and ancestral.
History records occasions when it had to
go into public mourning for its failure
to show proper respect to its suzerain.
When, as a result of the war between
Japan and China, it gained measure
of independence from this vassalage it
found itself on the point of being alb
sorbed by Russia. Now it meets mani
fest destiny in the form of japanese am
bition, for how the japanese admins
traitor who is to govern "under the en-
peror" will run things is reasonably
clear. 1t is true that this is all at vari-
ance with the japanese treaty. stipula-
ton, guaranteeing the integrity and au-
tOnomy Of Korea. But, as every one
knows, treaty agreements are binding
only when there are ships and guns to
back them up.

into the bonds of matrimony without
thinking well of the life she is about
to take up. These few extra years of
her life have given her time to see
how others manage and mismanage
their matrimonial affairs, and she
learns a good deal from the mistakes
of others. She has the advantage over
the girl of twenty in this way, and
does not step into the many errors
that she would not know how to avoid
We're she younger. At twenty-five
most girls have seen that it is not
always the most brilliant wedding that
is the forerunner of the happiest mar
ried life, or that the most dazzling
peace. A girl at twenty-five is more
able to see all around the subject and
weigh the pros and cons than her
younger sister, for this one does not
mind or care what happens so long as
she is with her sweetheart; and as
up to that time other people have usu-
ally done and settled things for her,
she only saying what she would like
best, she takes it for granted that
such smoothing of her path will still
go on. Married folks, however, wheth-
er they are very young or of ripper
age, have to learn quickly to depend
upon themselves, and it is then that
they learn the difficulties and often
shipwreck their happiness, developing
irritable tempers and getting peevish
They get into a way of not caring,
and love soon flies out of the window
then.
