CURE FOR DIRTY MILK

The question is, what is the remedy
for dirty milk? Some say if we steri-
lie or pasteurize it, all will be well.
But why injure the biOlogic properties
of milk by heating: Why permit the
dilution Of milk by eKcrement. then
kill the bacteria by heat and swallow
the mixture? Why not prevent, rather
than cure The remedy is simple. We
should insist upon clean milk and be
willing to pay for it; encourage the
production of a sanitary supply and
refuse to buy excrement and pus; buy
of man whose supply costs a cent or
two more per quart to produce, and let
the slOven learn that cleanliness is an
asset and filth heavy load to carry.

What is complained Of in other
counties is growing in Marion. One
trouble about granting permission to
carry pistols is that the applicants
are not safe persons to receive this
permission and there are several well
known cases in Marion. where parties
under the influence Of liquor with
guns in their hip pockets caused
great deal OF trouble The board of
county commissioners should be very
strict in granting this permit and
should satisfy themselves beyond all
doubt that those making the request
are men of sober habits and good
moral character. Again, we cannot
see why SO many persons desire this
protection. for in our experience in
Marion OF quarter of a century, dur
ing which time we have travelled all
over the county at all hours Of the
day or night, we never met an Occa-
service to save a life or limb. Above
all compel those who do get permits
sion to carry their weapon as the law
directs, in the open. Toting pistols is
a bad habit and a menace to life and
limb.

FIRST NATIONAL THANKSGIV.
ING DAY.

Thanksgiving day was borrowed
from the Hebrews and resembles the
annual feast or ingathering held by
the Jews when they were q nation.
The Pilgrims revived the ancient
Jewish custom, and later in the his
tory of the country the governors Of
the colonies appointed special days for
giving thanks to the Almighty. =
The idea of National Thanks
giving day originated with Alexander
Hamilton while secretary of the treas
ury under Washington, and was first
discussed at q cabinet meeting in
August, 1889. The suggestion was
opposed by Jefferson; at that time
secretary of state, on the ground that
it was in conflict with the spirit of the
constitution and IN invasion upon the
line which had been fixed
between religion and the state; but
the Hamilton idea prevailed, as the

STRENGTHENING THE CON-
BINE..

A few months ago the Journal told
about the formation of the lumber
combine nearly thirty years ago, and
alluded to Frederick Weyerhauser,
the head of the combination as the
richest man in the world who con-
trolled more money than Morgan,
Rockefeller and Clark combined.
Weyerhauser is worth between one
and q half and two billions of dollars,
and the foundation of his vast fortune
was made in the lumber bueiness,
which has grown to such proportions
that he is now known as the Lumber
King of the Continent. In his chase
for the almighty dollar Weyerhauser
has not hesitated to enter into ques-
tionable deals to add to his fortune.
He is the greatest untried and uncon.
victed criminal in the world today.
He has not hesitated to buy congress
men and senators and corrupt the
judiciary and purchase Legislatures in
order to carry out his schemes. He
has robbed the government of thous-
ands of acres of pine forests in Michi-
gan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, and
now the press dispatches announce
that he has strengthened the combine
of which he is the head by absorbing
the interests of his only competitor,
the largest individual owner of stand
ing white pine in the world.
The Chicago Tribune contains the
following account of Weyerhauser's
latest deal:
Ohicsg6is to become the sole selling
headquarters of the now lumber combi-
nation and Edward Hines il to be Pres
ident of the syndicate. While figures
publicly stated have fixed the combins-
ton Is 30 million dollar affair, Compel
ing lumber interests can zee no limits to
its capitalization, but 1t the same time
they express no fear Of it's attempting to
restrain trade BY fixing prices. Fred
erick Weyerhsuser, the Lumber King
of the Continent" Mr.. Hines and others
directly concerned. vanished from Chi
cago yesterday, and it was believed they
had gone to the homo OF Mr.. Weyer-
hauser at st. Paul. It 10 believed they
are completing tho details of the combi-
nation. A new capitalist named in the
venture was T. B. Walker, the largest
individual owner OF standing white pine
in the world. Mr.. Weyerhapser and Mr..
Walker, it is said, have made previous
attempts to arrive ct . business under
standing. Mr.. Walker has played Q
silent game" in the lumber trade, tying
upevery dollar available in the standing
timber and not selling often. The new
combination not only controls tho key to
the white pine situation but it also has .

which also came into the new combine
ton with the Cook & O'Brien people.
The strengthening of the lumber
combine by the purchase of the re.

emphasizes the necessity of placing
lumber on the free list.
