THE AMERICAN HUSBAND is
THE BEST IN THE WORLD
His Wife is the Happiest Woman
On Earth.

The American husband is the best
in the world says the Rev. Charles
Affixed, D. D., in the November New
Idea Woman's Magazine. He thinks
more Of his wife, makes more Of his
wife, gives more to his wife, than
any other husband the world has
ever known. Whether he has the
best wife in the world-but that is
another story. Certainly the Amerl-
can woman has the most favored lot
which has yet fallen to a human be-
inc. She has more to make her hap
py-in her. own phrase, to give her
ga good time,' than any other crea-
ture on the face Of the earth. She has
less drudgery and more leisure than
any other woman. She has more
money to spend and better things on
which to spend it. She has more free
dom, independence, more power OF
initiative and Of self-direction. She
is a person Of importance-and she
knows it. The present writer IS yet
seeking a female person between the
ages Of seven and seventy upon this
continent who does not regard her.
self as of the greatest consequence
in the scheme of things. She quietly
assumes that she is somebody. The
assumption is warranted in fact and
conceded in practice. The American
woman is, up to the present moment,
Gods best piece of work, and there
are no visible indications Of outside
improvements upon the product.
The American girl can protect her
self. She is not as easily led astray
as the girl of many other countries.
She is not as ''innocent," " in the ab-
surd and conventional meaning OF
that much-abused word. She knows
more. She can run alone. She is more
completely mistress Of herself. There
is higher standard Of SEXUAL moral
ity in this country than in the old
lands. This may be safely affirmed
in the face of ten thousand divorce
scandals and all the headlines Of "a
sensation-loving press. For every, un-
happy marriage of which the papers
speak, there are a thousand about
which it says nothing.
But in the last analysis the Ameri-
can woman has a better time than
any other woman because she is-an
American woman!

To Clean Furs.

Furs may. be readily cleaned at
home by rubbing them with bran.
Light is more troublesome than a
darker kind, but it is worth the
trouble and costs so little! Buy a
pound Of, bran at grocery or feed
store. Divide it into two portions,
placing one in the oven to heat.
Spread the fur on table, put paper
underneath, and rub it we'll with
cold bran. Shake free of bran and
brush with soft hat-brush. Then rub
the hot bran quite evenly into the
fur, going over it with infinite pat
ience. Afterward brush, then hang in
the air. If the lining be soiled clean
with a little gasoline, being careful
not to dampen the fur.-New Idea

The Index broke all previous re-

just what every body expected. If
we had not done so probably there

KNOCKING THE EDITOR.

IF you don't just like everything
you see in your home paper, go
around the streets and howl. The
editor is never supposed to make a
mistake, and of course cannot do so.
Other people can, but the editor IS
ubiquitous, omniscient, mnipresent,
"omniverous.' - If you can't see a
good point, don't fail to see a bad
one. If a thousand pleasant things
are said of people, hunt for some
thing unpleasant. If you don't lind
it howl some more; if you do, howl
anyway. Never mind your own busl-
ness; watch for something to find
fault with in some other mans
business. This will make you great.
-Elberton Star.
Under this standard there are very
few in this community who have at
tanned greatness. In this community
everybody attends to his own
business and never mas time to
know what other people are doing.
We have no cne who is idle, apd
therefore there is no mischief made.
Everybody says pleasant things about
everybody else and no one ever finds
fault but we all have pleasant words
even for our enemies, that is if any
body had time to have an enemy.
Everybody likes everything he sees
in the paper and if there should be
anything in the paper he doesn't like
he fails to see it. Nobody stands on
the street corner and therefore there
are no howlers. We are afraid that
we cannot claim any greatness IT
we are to be measured by the STAN
dard of the Elberton Star. Wonder
if there are any people in Newberry
who fit the description and STAN
dard of greatness. set by the Elber-
ton Star. Nobody has hammer in
Newberry so far as we know.

GARFIELD WILL COME.
Will Settle Ancient Dispute Between
Indians and Whites.

The right of the white people to
creek for irrigation has become a
very live question these days. 1t
will be remembered that Secretary
Garfield made a special trip up the
Ahtanum last August to personally
investigate the questions involved.
AT the time Secretary Garfield was
here Mr. Avery, the United States
attorney. had been instructed by the
Indian department to institute a suit
in behalf of the Indians, with the
view of establishing the right of the
Indians to a portion of the water of
the Ahtanum creek for irrigation
purposes.
Indeed, the Indian department
went so far as to claim that the
white settlers had no right to take
any water from the Ahtanum creek
for irrigation purposes. This right
claimed by the Indians was based
upon the Indian treaty setting apart
the Yakima Indian reservation for
the benefit of the Yakima tribe of
indians.
H. ]. Snively was employed by the
settlers TO represent their rights, and
he applied to Secretary Garfield to
stop litigation until he could per-
sonally investigate the matter. This
Secretary Garfield did, and he had
the matter under consideration until
January %, when he informed Mr..
Snively that he was prepared to con-
fer with the settlers on the north
side OF the creek.
Mr.. Snively when seen yesterday
by a representative of the Herald
said that Secretary Garfield would
probably come here in person to con-
fer with the white people affected by
the questions involved in the distri-
button OF the waters of the Ahtanum
creek
Mr. SniYely said that it was to the
interest of all concerned to have this
matter settled. Secretary Garfield
in his letter has said that the Alta
mum settlers cannot be furnished
water from the Tieton canal. Mr..
snively says, however. that he
(Sniyely) has a plan which he will
submit to the secretary which will

NACHES HARD HIT.
RANCHERS CLAIM POSTAL
CHANGE WILL RUIN THEM
Declare That Because They Are
Separated From Yakima Results
Will BE Bad.

Claiming that the Naches valley is
distinct from the Yakima and that
the change in the rural routes of the
county has resulted in detracting
from the yaiue Of Naches lands,
George Chapman, one of the oldest
of Naches ranchers, states that it is
up to the postoffice department to
rectify the error which was made
when the change in rural routes was
proposed and finally adopted by the
government.
Chapman states that the change
has done irreparable damage to the
Naches valley; that the citizens not
only receive their mail late, but in
addition every rancher is isolated
from the Yakima. Under the new
system mail for the Naches is sent to
Selah for distribution and from
there is forwarded by carrier to the
Naches.
III lHlS HldlHeT everything goes TO
Selah instead of North Yakima, and
as a result the Naches people state
they reside in Selah instead of the
leading valley in the northwest.
Chapman says rather consistent
kick has gone up from Naches ranch
ers as a result of this and that pos
sibly petition will be placed with
the postal department to make a
change.

CANNERIES ALL OVER.
Believed by Well-Knokn Man This
System Would BE Most
Advantageous.


John S. Hughes of Spokane, Wash.
member OF the executive commit
tee of the National Gamers associa-
ton, is advocating a plan to erect
a canning factory in every fruit grow
ing district in the Inland Empire
He calls upon commercial clubs, fruit
growers societies and residents to
take the initiative. His argument
follows:
"What we need is fruit CANINE!
factory" is a statement one hears
continually in almost every city and
town in the Spokane country. 1t is
truth of widespread acceptation.
Every one, even those not interested
in the growing of fruits, recognizes
the advantage such plant would
be TO his community. Orchards are
increasing by leaps and bounds in
every part of this splendid Inland
Empire The reason is almost too
apparent to need statement: The
wonderful adaptibilty of this soil
and climate to the growing of fruits.
Nowhere does nature seem to smile
with such lavish productiveness up
on the apple, the cherry, the peach
and the plum as here.
But with the great increase in or
chards must come greatly increased
production The growing of fruit is
profitable and will continue to be so
as long as only good fruit is placed
upon the markets. Every thinking
orchardist, however. recognizes the
fact that large numbers of untrain-
cd. careless and incompetent people
are rushing into the business. They
have no real interest in fruit grow
ing, no love for it as an occupation.
They seek only its large financial re-
turn Such persons endeavor to
market everything, no matter how
inferior. Thus the poor stuff COM
petes with the good, lowering prices
and disgusting the buyer.
Here lies the strongest argument
for the canning factory: 1t can use
all the imperfect and low grade frul.
