LARGEST METEORITE
FOUND IN OREGON
Visitor From Some Other Panet
Will Be Exhibited at Alaska
Yukon Pacific Exposition.

A visitor from Mars or some
other distant region or planet,
u massive meteorite the largest
ever found III the Western hemis-
phere, will be on exhibition at
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific EXPOSE
tion at Seattie-in 1909.
The metcoric stone fell recently
0n farm III Lima county, Ore
gon. 1t Is fifteen feet III diameter
which makes it'the largest in exis-
tence. When it fell it sank ten
feet into the ground. The Dutch
farmer on whose land it dropped
did not realize that the stone
possessed any particular interest
Cr value and as it was in hi,
baInyard he filled up the hole SO
his cattle would not fall into it.
Arrangements are now being made
to take care of the huge stone
until it is time to exhibit it at
the Aaska-Y Yukon Pacific Exposi-
ton, which although held primarily
for the purpose Of exploiting Alas
ka and Yukon and the countries
bordering upon the Pacific Ocean,
will not decline to accept exhi-
bits from other planets.
Oregon seems destined to supply
expositions with displays from 9th
er worlds. The second largest
meteorite known 10 be in existence
previous TO this was found three
years ago in Clackamas county,
near Oregon City, by a farmer
named Ellis Hughes on land owned
by the Oregon Iron and Steel COM
pany. 1t was entirely above
ground, and is composed of NAL
leable iron with trace Of cobalt
and nickel
Hughes kept his find secret
until he had moved the meteorite
onto his own land, when the Ore
gon Iron and Steel company
learned that the stone was discov-
cred on then property. The com
pany enjoined him in the circuit
court and won the case, claiming
the property as it was found on
land belonging to the company.
The meteorite was placed on
flat boat and floated down the
river to Portland where
it was an exhibit Of great interest

There is a good deal of truth in
the statement. We have so long
used the dollar mark in measuring
things in this world tha we neg
lect everything that is not written
with that emblem. We know that
n boy is worth something to tho
community, that every healthy in
dividual member Of society is an
asset to society, and some few of
the bolder and more knowing ones
have undertaken TO show the ex-
act amount each individual is
worth to society. But il is pretty
hard for the average man TO nm
derstand that a case of typhoid
fever is costing the whole COM
mttnity dollars and cents and we
go about our work hoping that the
disease will break out, if at all, in
some other fellows family. 1t is
an absolute truth that we protect
cur horses and cattle and sheep
more zealously than we do our
children and ourselves.
The farmer adapTs every new de-
vice that he can hear of that tends
to promote his crops. He sprays
his trees to protect his fruit. lie
snends thousands of dollars to
save his soil. The manufacturer
saves every penny that tends to
get away from him through leaks
of any kind. He has devices for
ascertaining whether any Of his
employees get to the shop minute
late. He puts in mechanism to
prevent waste. He utilizes every
bi-product that can be figured in
dollars and cents. And yet neith-
er the farmer nor the manufactnr-
er figures upon the human pro-
duet.
There are farmers who send half
way across the continent to get a
breed of sheep that will improve
their flock, and who then sends
their children TO school dressed IN
n manner that will dwarf their
whole existence. The manufacturer
spends thousands of dollars for a
machine that will enable work.
man TO make a few more pieces Of
butt he would not spend
penny to promote the health OF
health of the workman, although
he seems to know that a workman
who feels good is more efficient
than one who does not.
These may sound like harsh
statements, hut they are in very
fact the truth. We are striving
to build everything better but our
fellow men. We are not improving
our human stock as we are improv-
ing our other stock. We are play
ing for mechanical efficiency, and
neglecting human efficiency. And

What Others Say.

DIR. Richard Cole Newton, in the
Popular Science Monthly tells
the people of this country several
pertinent things regarding typhoid
epidemics which have become 50
numerous OF late years. DIR. Newton
believes that typhoid epidemic is
a useless thing and could be avoid
ed. He attributes the epidemics TO
the lack of interest on the part of
the municipalities in which they oc-
cur.
SO implicitly does he believe that
typhoid epidemics could be avoided
that he makes statement that q
man who contracts the disease has,
as good right to sue the city where
he contracted it as he would have
TO sue for damages resulting from
falling into am unprotected exca-
that the city should be held respon-
siblt in the event that the city per-
mits typhoid fever to get foot
hold. lie says 1T is in every in
stance caused by neglect ON the
part of the people.
But the statement which the doe
tor makes that appeals most
strongly t0 us is TO the effect that
il 1t were an outbreak of rinder-
pest or foot-and-mouth disease, the
people would take steps to save
the afflicted animals. There
would be no trouble in wiping out
a disease that was carrying away
valuable cattle. But when a hui
man being dies, that is different.
The loss is not figured up in dol
lars and cents and the people are
willing to take their chances
against further affliction.

Debating WHO SHALL
BE THE CANDIDATE

For the first time in the history
of the nation we find the presi-
dent, whose term of office does
not expire for almost two years,
taking a very active part in choos-
ng who shall represent his party
in the next election. 1t is, TO say
the least, out OF the ordinary. but
the people seem TO take little
thought of the affair because
they are used to Theodore Roose-
welt doing things which are out
of the ordinary and expect moth
ing else from him.
President Roosevelt has not only
stated that he wants the republi-
cans TO name Secretary Taft IA
their candidate but he has limited
that he intends, if occasion re-
Quires, to take off his coat, roll
up his sleeves and do some of
the fighting. He proposes to see
that his wishes are respected and
If necessary, he will WELD his
"big stick" against all who dare
oppose him. Already, he has
hinted that those IN Ohio who op-
pose him, need not expect any IA
vors from his hand.
The president is very anxious
that his policies be carried out,
but where is there a man who
does not think his own ideas are
right and who does not want TO
see the whole world adept the prin-
c:ples which he himself advocates
We all have certain ideas on GER
tain things which we firmly believe
to be right and which we would
like to see every other person
adopt and advocate, but the man
WhO enueaNOfS 10 cram MS IDEAS
down the throats Of other people is
set down by The average man as
a "crank", whose braziness is ap-
palling and whose Judgment is lack
ing. Roosevelt has now served as
president for almost six years.
During that time he has been con-
tinually outlining his policy and
has succeeded in accomplishing
some things. 1t would seem that
he should now be willing to sub
nit the question of the correct
ness of his policy to the people
without endeavoring TO dictate who
shall be the candidate OF any poll
teal party.

If every death from typhoid fe-
YER ccst the taxpayers of this city

how long, think you, it would be
before we took precautions to pre-

We have an ordinance against
expect Grating upon the sidewalks,
believing that it will tend to les-
sen consumption. We neither en-
force the ordinance nor care
where it is effective or not. 1t is
equally rs dangerous to expectoiate
in the street as it is upon the
pavemente. so far as tuberculosis
is concerned, but if we had an
ordinance prohibiting that, people
would laugh al it, and the police
force would moi be ordered to en-
force it,.
Hospitals ana cemeteries may
not be as good things as we imag-
inc. They arc u makeshift at best.
The hospitals relieve suffering and
the cemeteries are places where
we can get aid OF dead people, so
they will no longer bother us. II
we had no way Of relieving suf-
fering, perhaps we would take
steps 10 prevent it.. IF we had no
way Of d,sposing of our dead, per-
haps we would see to it that
fewer people died. Suffering and
death could ebe reduced greatly if
we would only stop dong enough
10 think abot them. Onn-fitfh- of
the graves in the cemeteries are
filled Will victims of tuberculosis
and kindred diseases. Net soul
should have died from that dis
ease. 1t was not necessary; it
was criminal III tho rest of us to
have allowed it,.
Every grave under six feet in
length Is somebody Is fault. Every
corpse with anything but gray
hair is an emblem to oar ignorance
or our yiclOusness. Babies are not
horn to die in Infancy. People do
not grow 90 maturity TO be carted
to the cemeteries in the MONDAY
OF tacir lives. When baby dies,
when a man in middle life passes
away, il SLOWS that there is
something wrong somewhere, some
thing that could be corrected.
Disease and suffering are not mat
ural and they can be produced
only by something that is unnat-
nral. Death comes only in the even
ing of our lives, il we are wi
and our neighbors careful. -
