A NARROW ESCAPE

Precipitated from a high grade
and tumbled with their big automo-
bile down a 100 foot embankment,
near Pomeroy, Wash, Saturday
evening, Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Gal
Iagher, en- route to Spokane from
their home in Walla Walla, mar
rowly escaped death. Failure of
the brakes to do their work on the
rear wheels of the big car, when
it was stopped on the grade, was
the cause of the accident.

ment of the institution. Superin-
tendent Aspinwall has the conf
dece of the boys and encourages
play fully as much as work.
Mr.. Clifford has observed the food
supply and says there is no reason
to complain in this particular. He
was shown an immense barn built
by the boys. and the work is a fine
sample of the carpenters skill.
Clifford says that the parents and
relatives Of boys or girls in the in
stitution can rest assured that I'M
der the present management the
inmates are well cared for.

OPPOSITE CITY Hall.

OF 1906 the liabilities amounted to
$62,664,O74; in 1905, to $55,9O4,-
5S5, and In 1904. to $79,49O, 500.
The liabilities of the past six months
were about $10,0OO,0O0 in excess of
the average of the liabilities of the
preceding five years-this average,
however, includes the heavy drafts
of 1908. Taken as a whole, the rec
ord of failures is not quite as favor
able as the bank clearings and other
statistical tests of the business situa-
ton, but 1t Is nevertheless moving In
the direction of commercial recovery.
and at this time, when all the signs
are so promising for a new period of
business uplift and expansion. the
large total of business embarrass-
ments must be regarded as represent
Ing the effects of a financial crisis
that has passed and not as Indicative
OF present conditions. During the
past three months-the second quar-
ter Of the first half of the year
there were 1881 failures, with total
liabilities of $44.0S0,423. and aver
age liabilities per suspension of
$I4.7S7.
A detailed comparison for the first
half Of the year shows that there
were 1922 manufacturing defaults.
involving $SS,05O,241 liabilities. as
compared with 2.l42 manufacturing
suspensions in the first half of 1908
with $5S,442,304 liabilities, and as
compared with 1895 manufacturing
failures in the first half of 1907. with
liabilities of $s6,64S,64s. In view
however, Of the industrial disturb
anee during large portion of the
half year, and In view also of the
progress on tariff revision, this show
ing of business embarrassment IN
the manufacturing field is, on the
whole. exceedingly reassuring. The
trading failures during the first half
OF the year amounted to 5,122. with
liabilities of sss,sS1.s52. comparing
with sass failures in the correspond.
ing period Of 1908, with liabilities Of
s4s,OlO.o22. and comparing with
4,lsO failures in the first half q,
1907. with liabilities of S2s.744.7ss
The other commercial failures. such
as insurance. real estate, brokerage.
etc. were proportionately large dur
ing the past six months. amounting to
lsT In number. with S14.I5s,2s0 LA
hilites, comparing with S2s in the
irst half Of 1908. with liabilities Of
s21.s22.50T. In the first half OF
1897 there were 1ss Of this class Of
fAnures. involving only ss.lSs,22s.

spending period Of 1908. when there
was an increase OF about 70 per cent
from the record OF the first half Of

l AM no Prohibitionist. That,
1 presume, within the very limited
bounds where | am known, goes
without the saying. am a Demo-
crat, and hold that there is limit to
what the majority may rightfully
do; that all other men combined
have no just right to limit me by
law in matters pertaining wholly
to myself. lido not always admire
the people who are themselves so
good that their chief concern is for
the proper habits and good morals
of their neighbors. Often, l dis
trust either their sincerity or judg-
ment, or both. Notwithstanding,
the REGISTER is for the submission
of the liquor question to the peo-
pie of the State. Right or wrong
in their views, they have a right
to be heard. The city papers which
are in this instance so democratic-
ally wrought up, make me to laugh.
For years they have given demo-
cracy second place to the Almighty
Dollar, but now the A. D. is in dan
ger and the principles of Jefferson
must be made its bulwark, its
spear and shield! Meetings are
held, speeches made, and resolu-
tions resolved, by the merchants,
the lawyers, the bankers, the un-
dertakers and the candlestick ma
kers,-all the business interests
imploring, cajoIing and threaten
ing the grave and reverend seign-
eurs of the Upper House at Jeffer-
son on the Missouri; they are be-
sought to let the question +. i. p.
But it won't r. i. p. as long as it is
alive and kicking, and the defeat
of the House resolution by the
Senate will only be postponing the
matter until another, and, possibly
from the liquor standpoint-a
more evil day. Let us vote on it
and be done with it! If democracy
is to be knocked out alongside the
Almighty Dollar, e'en so let it be.
Let the tail go with the hide!
