MRS. HOWARD GOULD TO
GET $25, 900 ALIM0NY
Court besides She Ought to Get Along
Comfortably on That Amount In
stead of $4,000.

New York, Nov. 19.-Mrs. Howard
Gould, who was Katherine Clemmons,
the actress, is to have only $4,000 a
year alimony by decision of Justice
Bischoff in the supreme court yester-
day, who also considers $4,000 suffi'
cient allowance for the counsel fee for
her lawyer, Clarence j. Shearn.
Mrs. Gould asked for 100000 year
and Mr. Shearn wanted $4,000. The
basis of these demands was that How
ard Gould's income is in excess OF
$4S0,000 year. Mr.. Gould set up that
he had been allowing his wife $4,000
a year voluntarily and that he thought
she ought to be able to get along com
fortably on this amount.

reform measures have been weighed.
The final report to the president will
be the necessary supplement to the
addresses at the White house confer
ence. The note of those addresses
was note of warning. The report is
expected to show that the warning
must be needed if the exhaustion of
natural resources is not, one day, to
impoverish the nation, and it will also
undoubtedly bring out how the coun-
try's resources can be developed SO as
to last the longest possible time and
serve the greatest good of the people.

REMODEL OREGON COURTS.

one measure before the people this
year that requires special attention
is that which has for its principal
purpose the increase of the supreme
Judges of the state from three to
five. This is a measure amending
the constitution of Oregon and Is
more far reaching than is generally
supposed. 1t remodels the judicial
power of the state and effects the
different courts from the county
court up.
1t provides for the transfer OF. all
probate proceedings from the coun-
ty court to the circuit court as soon
as the matter can be arranged
through the legislature, the abolish
ment OF new county board to handle
the county business
The above provisions are made a
part OF the proposed amendment in
order that the probate matter will
ultimately come in to the hands of
the circuit judge who is lawyer and
is thus perfectly competent to ham
die this part of the practice.
It may lead to circuit judges being
elected in each county. If the new law
should be passed, while the county
court would be abolished, and a body
more in the nature Of commission
ers' court established in its place.

Melville Il. Stone. During one period
of financial crisis that was especially
severe Field could see no way out of
his difficulties except to ask for a
raise in salary.
Several days in succession he went
to the office resolved to ask for the
raise, but each time failed to nerve
himself up to the speaking point, and
for a week was not seen in the office
at all.
Then one day he walked into Mr..
stones office, followed by four OF
his little children, the five of them
presenting a pitlable appearance.
Field and his children were dressed
in rags from head to foot, the chill
dren's toes were sticking out bare
through holes in their shoes, their
faces were dirty and their eyes looked
as IL they had been crying.
The five stood In front OF Mr.
Stone without speaking a word, but
looking at him with appealing
glances. All this, of course. had been
carefully rehearsed by Field during
his week OF absence. and the result
was all that could be desired. Final
ly Field broke the silence and said:
do you think you can see your way
clear. Mr.. Stone, to raise my salary?"
Needless to say he got the raise.

A PRINCIPLE AT STAKE.

The Portland Oregonian says that
the struggle between Fulton and Cake
for the senatorial toga is useless; that
II is a futile fight among republicans.
To republicans who have a princi-
pie and political creed the struggle Is
not useless. To republicans who do
not recognize the infallability of the
boss the struggle is not useless. To
rel lublicans who have minds of their
own the struggle is supremely import
ant.
There is a principle at stake in the
contest between Fulton and Cake
which involves the future of the re-
publican party in oregon. There is a
strong and progressive elment in the
publican party in this state which be-
Deves in popular government, in the
peoples rule, in progress. in political
purity, independence and vigorous party
health.
This element demands the right to
select their United States senators and
for this element H. NJ Cake stands in
his advocacy of the peoples choice.
Another element dominated by the
Old machine would hold the power in
the hands of a half dozen men, throw
the senatorial election into the legis-
lature again and put the toga up for
Eale to the highest bidder.
The principle at stake in the sena-
torial contest is national in its scope
ard it would be shameful for Oregon
to repudiate the popular election of
senator's after having put her hand to
the plow as she has done.
What will the nation say of the re-
publican party of Oregon If it retro
grades this year? Will not thoughtful
people everywhere say that the bosses
are in control again and oregon has
gone back to her flesh pots?
Let US sustain the high principle
which we have emblazoned upon the
banner Of Oregon. Let us elect the
peoples choice. Let us go forward.
Let W not disappoint the admlring
states which are waiting to hear from
Oregon.

ENEMIES OF NEWSPAPERS.

The most notorious opponent Of

Governor Pennypacker of Pennsyl-
vania.
Last Friday four men who had
worked under the supervision of the
Pennypacker administration, or had
been directly connected with it, were
convicted of defrauding the state in
furnishing the new capitol at Harris
burg.
Between these two facts there is
immediate connection. Their relation
is Of immense pertinence to condi-
tions in every American city and COM
monwealth.
There never was CRATER or a pol
itician associated with the system
under which graft flourishes who did
not fear the hate and denounce
fearless, honest press, There never
has been a plundering public service
or a mercernary hirellng of such
corporation who did not recognize in

BE CAREFUL IN VOTING.

The people Of Oregon are proud Of
their initiative and referendum law.
and should see that they make no mis-
takes in exercising the functions Of
lawmakers. To prevent making mis-
takes. the voters should carefully con-
sider the 10 proposed laws which will
be upon the official ballots for their
consideration at the coming state cleo
tion.
The booklet containing the 19 laws
and arguments have been sent out,
1000 Of them. They are intended
to enlighten the voters and the state
has paid out an enormous sum to have
them printed and distributed, a work
which the newspapers could have done
for at least one-half the cost to the
taxpayers.
II you are not sure Of the meaning
Of a law on the ballot, It is safer to
vote mo" Then you will not be
guilty of sa,ddling some special, local
act upon the state which might creep
into force under the initiative.
However, there are a number Of
meritorioUs measures on the ballot
mis- year and the voters are urged to
consider them carefully. They de-
serve to be passed. They should have
been enacted into law long ago.

SUPPORT THE MARKET DAYS.

The success of the market days held
il. this city has been due to the hearty
support which these events have been
gwen BY stockmen and farmers and
the results have been highly satisfac-
tory. The markets must be continued
and supported and kept up to the
present high standard.
The benefits of the public sales are
not all confined to the actual sales,
but 1t is an educational matter which
brings people together from different
parts of the country and builds up a
good market for stock outside of the
sales.
Many excellent horse sales were
made in this city outside of the pub
lie sales, but the public sale was direct
" responsible. 1t brought the people
to the city and in this way the buyer
and the seller met and made bargains
which would perhaps never have been
made had not the public sale brought
them here.
SO let us support the sales days. Let
ns encourage them and patronize them
and urge farmers and stockmen to at
tend. Let them know that they can
rot afford to stay away.

THE SONG OF THE WIND.


The wind that sings in the chimney
flue,
What does 1t say to me and you?
Rich is its haunting minor key
incoming for things that can never be,
Or things that are lost to the day and
sun.
Back in some black oblivion.
1t moves on wings from the misty
past,
over its gloom are shadows cast.
1t whistles a dirge for ancient days
Solemnly sad are the tunes 1t plays,
It's volume rises and falls 1t fills
The heart with tremors and doubts
and thrills.
It roams the breadth of the sea and
earth,
But 1t never harbors a note of mirth.
o. gray old harper, in wondrous ways
Your requiem tells of the Yesterdays
But who that lives can the tale trans
late,
Or quote the presage of Life and
Fate?
But sing away in the chimney flue,
OF things that are old and things
that are new
Till sorrow and suffering seem sub
lime
To the very ends of the sands OF
Time
Joel Benton in Success
