over the coast and several eastern
horses with top notch records are en-
tered for some OF the prominent
purses. Taking 1t altogether 1T looks
as If the 1906 state fair would hold the
biggest and most successful racing
meet ever pulled off in the northwest.
The State Fair Association an
nounces the coming for fair week of
the Burch & Reiss carnival and circus
company. This company is composed
of big circus. pony show and a car
nival aggregation with a great many
splendid features such as shoot-the-
chutes. slide for life, an improved
merry o-round, one of the finest
troupes of acrobats in the country and
numerous other attractions, making it
worth coming a long distance to see.
The big circus will be in the city all
week on grounds in the city limits, as
near centrally located as possible.
The races this year at the Washing
ton state fair. September II to 90, are
well filled and will bring out a large
number of fine horses. Over 100 ami
mails are entered. Every minute of

Horses are entered from all over the
coast and the eastern states. A fine
string of animals will be here from
California to compete for the two
$1,000 stake purses. There are 81 en-
tries in these two races alone.
The twenty-mile cowboy relay race
for the state fair this year is going
to be an exciting one, as there are a
large number of entries by whites
and Indians. The Siwashes say they
are going to capture the purse and are
now trying out their horses on the
reservation with a view to getting the
very best ponies and put them and the
riders in condition for the big race,

PROFESSOR Thomas A Jaggar, Jr.. Of

announced, upon his return from a study
OF the recent eruption OF VesuVius, that

some practical resistance against such

lieves that the time has come when q

the risks which can be anticipated by In

There IL another custom at Berkeley that
Ls unique among our colleges 1t all hangs
about the tale of an axe-just a plain,
everyday axe. Many years ago. as years
go with college students, the boys from
Leland Stanford came up to Berkeley
brandishing an axe as a symbol of what
they would do in the forthcoming athletic
contests. California, OF course, could stand
no such taunt. and made a rush for the
axe The enemy fed, the home guard in
pursuit. The Berkleyites got the axe. and
in their turn, then fed. This time the
policeman became involved and all the
town was out. Stanford got it's axe again,
and again there was a race for 1t.
Then a demure young Berkelyite came.

was. he worked in with the enemy until
they thought him one Of themselves. Then
seeing the axe bearer hard pressed he
made him give him the axe, being fieeter
of foot than the timid bearer So the axe
was passed over. and to this day reposes
in the archives of Berkeley. Once a year
they bring it out. and tell the story Of
the glorious victory.

THE TERMINAL ELEVATOR.

A few of the farmers of Eddy county
are endeavoring to organize a concen-
trated movement among the wheat
growers of the state for the construc-
ton of terminal elevators to be owned
and controlled by the farmers them
selves.
The plan is decidedly good one
provided the scope of the organization
can be made sufficiently large to con-
troll the grain crop and to that extent
fix the price and grade of the grain.
1t is a we'll known fact that the
farmers Of the northwest have no
more say in the fixing of the prices
which they receive for their products
than do the Hottentots of interior
Africa. They simply take the grain
to the elevators and accept whatever
grading, dockage and price the eleva-
tors are willing to give.
These conditions can never be i'm
proved until the producers are in posi-
ton to control the supply and, by regu-
1ating that, fix the price which they
shall receive. It is true of wheat as it
Is of other products that the price
primarily depends upon the supply.
When that is limited the price must
advance The natural law of trade is
that supply and demand shall be self
regulatory. In its elementary appli-
cation this means that so long as there
b supply It shall be made to fill the
actual demand. But in our modern
and ARTIFICIAL commercially the de-
mand Is normal but the supply is regu-
lated according to the needs of the
spectators and not according to the
demand. gs.s :3,.j 4

EDUCATING THE DOUKHOBoRs.

1t is announced that the Society of
Friends in the United States are plan
ming to start campaign of educa-
ton among the ignorant and deluded
Doukhobors of Canada If they sue
coed in getting even small amount of
enlightenment among those people
the Quakers will have done greater
deed than when they established on
this continent the principle of right
dealing with the Indians.
There is probably no more depraved
religious fanatics in the western world
than the Doukhobors. They came
from Russia and while in that country
the Russian government prohibited
them from receiving instruction. Now
they have become so fixed in their illit-
eracy and ignorance that they will not
allow the children to be educated.
Coupled with this illiteracy is re-
ligious fanaticism that is not only alb
surd but disgusting. The disgraceful
journeys which they take in their eff
forts to find the Savior are well
known. Their other religious prac-
tees are in keeping with this. 1t is.
absurd to believe that there can be
even instilled religion in such prac-
tees, and they have merely set an
ignorant frenzy in the place of re-
ligion. .lsaf',t
Education may develop in them Gull
ture which will enable them to rise
above their present practices, but it.
will be years in securing such results.
They will refuse instruction to the
children and the only way it can come
is by gradual instilling in each sue
ceeding generation larger quantity
until education becomes somewhat
general. AS this condition develops
they must forsake the silly religious
Norms which have prevailed and accept
some one of the faiths founded on in
telligence.
If the Quakers succeed in accom-
plishing this result they will have
lifted one of the most benighted COM
munities out of darkness and effaced
a religious doctrine that is disgrace
to a civilized community.
