CHEMICAL BEING REPAIRED.
Firemen Consider Themselves Lucky
In Yesterdays Accident.

The chemical engine, wrecked yes
terday afternoon by colliding with a
telephone pole in front of the sub fire
station in East Alder street, is being
repaired today and will probably be
put into commission tomorrow as a
hose wagon. Mechanics, on examining
the wagon, found the chemical engine
was badly damaged and it will prob
ably be several days before repairs
can made.
ut is a wonder some of us were
not killed." remarked Captain Forster
this morning 1.-THE wagon collided with
the pole with terrific force and the
men were hurled into the street all in
a heap. Driver Kelly landed on top of
me.
ut was lucky for Kelly that I didn't
land on him." Captain Forster unused,

An Editor Outspoken.
ConcOrdia Kansan.

The editor of this dinky paper wishes
sometimes he were rich. No, we only
wish We were rich for about a week
just long enough to teach some rich
people we know how to act toward
less fortunate people-less fortunate in
the matter of worldly possessions, we
mean. AS a matter of fact, inordin-
ately rich people-the majority Of
them-have no sense at all. This is
especially true of some man who has
struck it rich or woman who mar
ried bunch of money. 1t gives us
infinite pain to witness the nauseating
airs of these toads with the dollar
mark sticking all over them. Gee
whiz! it makes us riled to have some
purse-proud monkey without brains
enough to carry breakfast to sick
bear put on highfalutin airs around
US!

state backing, is not different from a
tain number of spectators attempt
to keep grain of the market until it
has risen in price to satisfy their greed
for profit. Many of these plans have
been broad enough in theil scope to
include the farmers. Agents Of the
corner have travelled about among the
farmers urging them to plant limited
quantity of wheat, and when the grain
was harvested, other agents have adj
vised to hold onto their crop until they
received the tip to sell. The cornering
gentlemen have never quite succeeded
in owning all the wheat, and while
they have at times succeeded in push
ing up the price, the producer never
realized anything on it, for the price
was up only when he was under bond
not to sell. Whenever he came upon
the market with his wagon the price
went down twice as fast as it had
gone up.
Some statesman has remarked that
there was fatality about attempts to
force up the price of the necessarles
of life. Perhaps the coffee corner
would escape moral condemnation on
the ground that it is not necessary
of life. The American people take 1884,
100000 of Brazilian coffee annually,
but it does not follow that they would
continue to take it at an artificial
price. They could do without it.

Columbia River Boat Was Not SO

Instead Of lying at the bottom of

the death of Engineer Cole Harris but

"A terrific storm was raging on the
Columbia the evening" Of the accident
and in beating across the river above
Wallula the wind struck the Matte
broadside and piled us up on a reef.
Owing to the strong wind it was al
most impossible to work the boat
away from the rocks and Engineer
Harris went out in the life boat to
plant an anchor so we could work
the steamer into deep water.
"In throwing the anchor overheard
Engineer Harris accidently upset the
boat and he was thrown into the river.
Harris had the only boat and it was
impossible for us to render him any
assistance. My brother jumped into
the river after Harris but his under
clothing became entangled around his
feet and he came very near drowning.

A GIGANTIC COFFEE CORNER

William J. Bryan, Coin" and Chaw-
ley Towne would have a good time In
Brazil Brazil is trying an experiment
in fixing the price of coffee not dissim-
liar from the plans of this trio for the
free coinage of silver at a fixed ratio
with gold. The argument put up py
Bryan was that if the minis of the
and unlimited coinage of silver at a
ratio of Is to 1, that very fact would
hold the price at the ratio fixed. No
matter how much silver was offered,
the unlimited market afforded by the
treasury would keep the price stable
Now Brazil is to try this very
scheme with coffee. "Valorization" is
the name given to the Brazilian plan,
which is substantially as follows: The
three great coffee-raislng states of
Brazil will agree to maintain the price
of No. Z American standard coffee at
a given minimum, says the Minneapolis
Tribune.
To aid in maintaining the price they
are first to enact laws preventing an
extension of the acreage, and second,
they are to create a loan fund of $751;
100000 to buy coffee when the market
is weak. By this means they are to
maintain the price of coffee at the
| fixed ratio of 40 milreis to one bag.
All that is now lacking to put the
scheme into effect is s75,OOO,O 900 of Eu-
| ropean capital to constitute the loan
| fund. OF course there is very little
probability of European capital going
into such a venture. 1t illustrates,
however, policy which is coming more
and more into discussion in agricul-
tural countries, that of controlling the
price by limiting the production. 1t
adds the feature Of cash fund to boil
ster the market. None Of these arti-
fetal plans to regulate prices nave
ever lasted long. Nor is it desirable
even from the producers viewpoint,
that they should. Suppose the Brazil
ian states succeeded in getting their
loan fund and suppose they played
it all in" in an attempt to stem a de-
Ginning market, what would be the ef-
feet on the coffee business? 1t would
be ruinous. as everybody knows. Not
only would the fund be gone. but also
the assets on which it was pledged
The coffee lands would lose their VAL
ue in the general depression and the
coffee producers who owed anything
upon their lands or equipment would
be involved in ruin.

MAYOR KELLOUGH RESPONSIBLE

Mayor Kellough, in handling the dy-
Mantle surrounding the pipeline scan
dal. has evidently assumed the posi-
ton that the crooked work began be-
fore he took office and that he is not
responsible This pose of being not
my brothers keeper" cannot but re-
act to the injury of the man who was
going to stand for the property owner
and the taxpayer, regardless of politi-
cal demands.
1t is true that a portion of the pipe
line graft was worked by the water
committee before Mayor Kellough came
into office. But the discovery of the
graft come after his installation as
mayor and a portion of it is undoubt-
edly a part of his administration.
Further. the violations on the part
of those responsible for the nonfiling
of the payrolls came when the mayor
was made cognizant of what was 60
ing on 1t was up to him to enforce
the faithful observance of the law and
the specifications.
This Mayor Kellough has not done.
The mayor knows full well the filing
of the time books, doctored, possibly,
to suit the emergency, is not a COM
pliance with the specifications. That
he fully realizes this is evidenced by
his holding up the last estimate of the
Warren Construction company until
the receipted payrolls, or satisfactory
vouchers, can be filed.
If Mr.. Kellough installed a new
manager in his clothing store, would
he not expect that manager to exert
every effort to correct past evils, Of
which he has cognizance, and secure
the repayment of any money which
might have been embezzled?
The mayor is the peoples manager
and is expected to work for the inter-
ests and protection of the people.
