COLFAX WANTS SALOONS

The action of the Colfax CONNER
cial Club, which is evidently govern
ed largely by saloon interests. in her
aiding to the world that the town
cannot live without saloons, is giving
that town black eye. Colfax peo-
pie would have spasms If one were to
intimate that that is not as good a
town as Pullman or Garfield or Cakes
dale, yet the towns mentioned all
live, move and have their being
without saloons being tolerated by
them. The trouble with Colfax's COM
mercial club and it's city government
is that both are dominated by the
saloons. They have been led to be-
lieve that the saloons bring trade
from the country to the town, yet
the country people who trade in Col
fax have signed the petitions calling
for a special election to vote out the
saloon, and the country precincts are
giving overwhelming majorities to
these petitions.
The attempt of some of the sa-
loon men of Cofax to have the com
mercial club pass resolutions con-
demning County Auditor Duncan,
whose home is in Pullman; and Pros
ecuting Attorney Chamberlain, who
was elected from Garfield, and are
the only two county officers from
outside of ColfaX, shows a low and
petty spirit. The resolution introduce
ed condemned these men for support
ing local option, and shows the in
tolerable spirit of the saloons, They
would muzzle, punish or Danish
every one who dares to raise hand
or a voice against their nefarious
business. Pullman and Garfield are
both dry" towns and both are pros
porous. They have solved the pro-
blem of living, moving and enjoying
prosperity and the respect of the peo-
pie. Colfax is better town than the
saloon bunch and some of the bust
ness men would have the people be-
lieve and the rich farming country
surrounding it; the business brought
to the town by the county seat, and
it's many natural advantages will
keep the town alive even if few
bartenders, saloon loafers, swampers
and tin horn gamblers are forced to
get out, or to work for an honest
living. ColfaX is not dependent upon
such people for its prosperity. 1t is
founded upon more solid founda-
ton than that.

POPULAR COUPLE LEAVE TOWN

Mr.. and Mrs. George Whitcher left
Pullman for Spokane Thursday at l 1
O'Clock. They will spend two or
three weeks in Spokane visiting
friends and looking after property
interests there, after which they will
visit Puget Sound and eventually go
to California to spend the winter. 1t
is their intention to travel for year
before locating.
In the departure of Mr.. and Mrs.
Whitcher Pullman loses a worthy
ouple who leave number of staunch
friends who regret their departure,
During six and one-half years they
have been in town they have accu-
lated money and friends and the lat
ter wish them success and happiness
wherever they may locate. Mr.
Whitcher has been quite successful
financially in Pullman and has invest
ed the profits from the business in
Spokane real estate which has in
creased in value until they are now
well fixed financially and will have
a snug income from the rental of
their Spokane real estate.

NORTH POLE CONTROVERSY

"Who discovered the north pole?'
PROMISES to take its place with other
great enigmas, such as Who struck
Billy Patterson" and Where Is the
lost Charley Ross?" The controversy
now engaging the attention OF the
nublic is becoming disgraceful, but
tbe manly conduct of DR.. Cook and
the unfair and unmanly conduct OF
Peary is making friends for the form
or and casting discredit upon the lat
fer The revelations made by Harry
whitney. the New Haven, Connect
- hunter, who returned from the
north with Peary, has done much TO
credit Cook and discredit Peary.
One of the strong points offered
by Peary in his charges against Or.
Cook. in which he claimed that COOK
had not been to the pole. was that
Cook had not told Harry Whitney
that he had discovered the pole, but
onIy claimed that he had gone furtner
north than Peary had gone In 1891
Now Whitney announces that Cook moi
only told him, Immediately upon his
return to Etah, from the north pole

the mole. but showed Whitney maps
and records to prove 1t and pledged
Whitrey to not disclose this discovery

KEEP BABIES OUT

Now that the season for entertain
ments at the college has returned, it
is hoped that parents will have the
good taste to leave babies and small
children at home when attending
these entertainments In the past
patrons of the college entertainments
have been greatly annoyed by the
presence of babies and small children
who would not be permitted in a
public opera house. True, the col
lege belongs to the state and each
person has an equal interest in it,
but that is no reason why a large au-
dience should be annoyed by babies
and small children who cannot en-
joy such entertainments and would
be more comfortable and happy al
home. The college people do not
feel like making a rule barring bah
les from these entertainments, but il
should not be necessary to make such
a rule. Parents should respect the
rights of others without the enforce
ment of an arbitrary rule.

Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers of health and strength;
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles of the men stand out like
cords.
AS a matter of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker Oats-that would win in any
contest with the old Roman or Greek
champions.
It's a matter of food. The finest food
for making strength of bone, muscle
and nerve is fine oatmeal Quaker
Oats is the best because 1t is pure, no
husks or stems or black specks. Farm
ers' wives are finding that by feeding
the farm hands plentifully on Quaker
Oats they get the best results in work
and economy. II you are convenient

The Herald is glad to note the alb
sence of rOwdyish conduct on the
part of the students of Washington
State College. While many older and
larger schools have been disgraced
recently by the rough and sometimes
dangerous acts of the students in mi
tiation or other pranks PLAYED on
newer students, the young men and
young women of Washington State
College have confined themselves to
less Objectionable, but no less en-
joyable pranks, and the best of feel
ing prevails throughout. The prank
played on number of freshn en- who
wore induced to pay for their chapel
seats, or sent out on a chase for
Johnny Bender, to pay him for them,
which was published exclusively in
The Herald, was laughable thing
which did no harm and furnished
much amusement. ut is but a step
from the sublime to the ridiculous
and it is an equally short distance
between rowdyism and harmless
FRANKS and the students of Washing
ton State College seem to know where
the dividing line is located.

Every copy of last weeks issue of
The Herald was bought by Pullman
people, although large number of
extra copies were printed. These
papers were sent out of Pullman and
will do much to advertise the town.
The demand for extra copies of The
Herald has been steadily increasing
lately and every week a large number
is secured and mailed to people in
other places. 1t pays to publish a
nice, clean paper, full of good things
about the town, the country and the
people living therein. The manage
ment is gratified with this show of ap-
probation of it's efforts and feels GER
tain they will result in good to Pull
man, the State College and the sur
rounding country.

HERALD is ri YEARS OLD

With this issue The Herald begins
the twenty-second year of its exist
ence. What changes have occurred
in that time! When this paper was
founded Pullman was a little village,
with no prospects of ever becoming
anything greater. Washington State
College was unthought of. Most of
the land was unfenced and large
portion of it was unimproved. The
town consisted of few stores, few
residences, all of minor Importance,
with almost no trees to furnish shade
or beauty. Land was worth a few
dollars per acre, and hard to sell at
any price. Most farms were mortgage
ed Spokane was a good sized coun-
try town. Whitman county had less
than one-third the population 1t now
has.
1t is difficult to realize the great
changes and the wonderful progress
tn at have been made since the first
isue of The Herald. Pullman is now
the largest town in Whitman county,
and the seat of the largest and best
educational institution in the north
west, with more students than the
widest dreams of Pullman's first
editor had hoped there would be
population in the town in 81 years.
The growth of the town the coun-
try and The Herald have about kept
pace Pullman is the largest town
in Whitman county and The Herald
is the largest, best and brightest
paper in the county, with the best
equipped office in the Inland Empire
outside of Spokane. The Herald
management is proud of Pullman and
has a right to feel that the people
of Pullman take a pride in this paper.

IS THE WINDMILL PERFECT 3?
The Modern Design Compared with
the Ancient.

T. hardly seems possible that the
best windmills today are not superior
to those of olden times. but their mer-
its are compared by writer for Gas
siers Magazine" The points he raises
are Interesting and worth considera-
tion. but his closing question indicates
that he is not yet convinced that the
old is better than the new.
why" he asks. 'is the full circle
of windmill OF the modern type filled
with blades? The only space not filled
is the central eve and such small
space as is represented by the angu-
larity of the blades. The consequence
of this may be that the wind DETECTED
from the moving blade will be direct
ed against the next following blade,
and will hinder the rotation OF the
mill. With fewer blades the wind
would pass away more freely. and 1t Is
likely that there would be more pow
er generated per blade if, indeed, not
actually more power from mill OF
a given diameter The efficiency Of
Asat SUI idNE NOutN DAOboOlf DO bNNNNA' .
An ordinary windmill is simply an
impulse turbine without guide blades.
The wind advances in parallel flow
ing stream and strikes upon the slop-
ing surfaces Of the sails or blades.
These slip away under the lateral
pressure of the air. and the air is de-
fected in the opposite direction. and
can get away only between the
blades. Such. at least. appears TO be
the trend of some recent thought on
the question. and there is some rea-
son in it. Tie old Dutch mills had
only four. FIVE or six sails. as rule.
By no means was the full circle COW
eied with sail area Indeed, a mere
fraction was occupied, and much
greater sail area could probably have
been added. The modern windmill is
quite different, and has its whole cir
Gle occupied. Are there any tests on
record TO show what is the effect OF
this. and is 1t not quite likely that
investigation would lead to changes
in design"
