went into the saloon now goes into
the legi innate channels of trade and
| that is not all. The crowd that was
constantly hanging around the sa-
looms is now earning daily wage, and
spending it for the benefit of their

Did it cause empty buildings? Just
the opposite is true every building
is occupied. And the residences are
all occupied, so it is not possible to
rent house. Some one may say
extra good times no. we lost our
wheat and oats crops last year by the
green bugs. Cotton and corn were
about half crop, yet we are very
prosperous. Lands are advancing
as well as city property.
| Let me tell you one more good
thing in favor of prohibition. Under
the saloon regime the streets were
lined with poor horses, until way IN
to midnight. Now at 6 o'clock the
streets are cleared and men have
gone home sober instead of going
home drunk at late hour to abuse
both horses and family. These same
men who went home late and drunk
at that, 60 home sober now, milk
cows feed, pigs and of course are
prosperous. Now as to the enforce
ment, Prohibition does net prohibit?
Yes, it does. | know men who were
never sober under the license system
who are now clothed in their right
minds, and are good citizens. The
law is as we'll enforced as any other
law. We have few "bootleggers'
but we are sending them to jail and
they don't like that. Sentiment is
crystalizing against the liquor traffic
and YOU need not fear that it will
ever go back to the old order Of
things. Yes, prohibition is in Okla

WONDERFUL MIRAGES.
False Peak of Tenerife and Illusions
In the Dardaneiies.

The peak of Tenerife is known among
deep sea sailors as the false peak.
Owing to some popularity Of the at
mosphere it is always seen by mirage
in exactly the opposite direction from
which 1t lies, and only the fact that all
captains know that the mirage appears
long before the true peak is visible
through the most powerful glass pre-
vents many ship from sailing many
miles out Of her course. It is hard for
q greenhorn to believe that the majes-
tic purple mountain towering astern or
on the port beam apparently only a
short distance off is In reality miles
away in exactly the opposite direction
and the seemingly solid earth at which
he Is gazing is only a reflection on the
clear mirror Of the air. Many weird
tales are told Of shipwrecked men who
have steered for the false peak in the
expectation of finding land and have
persisted Of hunger and thirst while
pursuing the phantom mountain.
Sometimes the passengers and crew
sof vessel on the lookout for the false
peak see a much rarer and more beau
tiful mirage, that Of ship In the sky.
It usually appears about 10 o'clock in
the morning, about ten degrees above
the horizon and under full sail, every
delicate spar and tapering mast clearly
visible against the blue ether and even
the play Of light and shadow in the
bellying canvas plainly discernible to
the naked eye. It generally remains in
sight half an hour or more before
gracefully fading away. The oldest
mariner can never remember having
seen the mirage Of a steamer In tina,
latitude, but always that Of full rig
ged ship, and this peculiar fact has
given birth to many romantic legend;
about the ship In the sky, all connect
ing it in some way with the false peak

Redwood Falls Women Are Finding

It does seem that women have
more than a fair share Of the aches

They must walk and bend and work

Washington, May 2S.-The house
committee is divided on the print
paper tariff question, the republicans
opposing the removal and democrats
urging that II be removed immedi-
ately.
The republicans report. "As at
present the price Of paper will not be
affected Immediately in any consid-
erable degree by the repeal and as
the Stevens bills passage means GER
tain ruin TO the paper industry Of this
country, we recommend that legisla-
ton be postponed until the investiga-
ton is completed and action taken at
next congress"
The democrats said: "The revenue
derived from the import of wood pulp
is so small and the benefits to be de-
rived from the abolition of the duties
so considerable, that we urge imme-
diately placing pulp and printing pa
per on the free list. We believe the
conditions can only be relieved by the
passage of the Stevens bill"
The republicans declare no evidence
of a conspiracy to raise the price Of
paper was found, while the democrats
declared there was complete evidence
of concerted effort by manufactur-
ers to raise the price, but nothing
covered by the criminal statutes.

BLOODY VENDETTA BETWEEN

Paris, May 2S.-A bloody vendetta
has arisen between the Spanish and
French soldiers jointly policing Nor

The Spanish war office has notified

dueling is a daily occurrence. The
Frenchmen are the most successful.
The condition is serious and con-
ferences are being held today for a

Though the team will be handicap

should be able to win the low hur-
dies and also a place in the 220 dash.
Turner will take a place in the broad
jump, while the rest of the work will
be done by the Means boys in the
weights.
Owing to the fact that the Pendle--
ton boys will be delayed by the grad
uating exercises, in reaching Corvallis,
they will have to enter the finals
without competing in the try outs.
But in spite Of the obstacles and the
inability Of Jay to participate. the
team is out to win and the five young
athletes will do all they can to cap
ture the meet for their school and

OF all the points Of which the west

fruits can be raised there earlier than

As a result about $50 will be raliz-

cherry tree.
Now It Is claimed by the west
enders that they can raise better ap-
Piles there than at any other place in
the northwest and DR.. Coe says that
the proof will be at the Spokane fair
next fall.
In the vicinity OF the Furnish pro-

trees that the ribbon taking apples
