Little Lad
Takes Wild
Sleigh Ride

BY the use of well directed blows
from buggy whip, which. he applied
after climbing into a cutter hitched
in front of the residence, the 3-year-
old son of Mr. and Mrs c. J. Bowers,
3S4 Palouse. Yesterday afternoon about
$3.50 o'clock started something that he
could not finish and incidentally came
very close to causing him serious in
Jury. Aside from a broken cutter pole
nothing was damaged, however. and
the young Jehu now takes the affair
as huge joke.
: After driving from the country be-
hind his spirited team, hitched to
cutter. Mr.. Bowers tied the horses in
front of his house. No sooner had he
done so than his little boy climbed
into the rig and proceeded to belabor
the beasts with the whip. Though
both of the horses were tied with
strong halters, they broke these in
their frantic efforts to get away from
the lashing and dashed up the street.
Before they had gone over 100 yards
the double trees became detached,
freeing the team from the cutter. BY
the force of it's momentum, this turn
ed a complete somersault when the
tongue became buried in the ground,
throwing the only passenger into a
deep snow bank. This broke the force
of his fall and when a passer-by pick
ed him up he was laughing and treat
ing the affair as funny
The team was later captured on the
upper end of Washington street, the
only damage being the broken tongue.

Poultry Sh0w
Premiums Good

Prospective exhibitors are now be-
ginning to get their birds in shape for
the tenth annual poultry show which
will be held in Armory hall, January
ready submitted it is expected that
the coming fair will far exceed all
others. There are many reasons ao-
vanced why one should exhibit at TINS
show, for with. low entrance reey,
honest treatment and the best of
chances to win, the management feels
that it offers every competitor an equal
opportunity of drawing the. prizes.
Prizes will be awarded as follows:
First premiunl-5O per cent of the
entrance fees of the class competing;
second is 80 per cent, and third is 20
per cent. This show is not open to
only those who live in this locality but
anyone in any section of the world will
be permitted to place his birds on ex-
hibition. Many special prizes and sill
yer cups are also offered.
The interests of everyone will be
vigilantly guarded and exhibitors neec
not accompany their stock, so we'll is it
cared for, but hearty invitation is
extended to all who can come to this
city.
All entries for this contest close
Friday at midnight, January IA and
the entrance fee will be 25 cents a bird
An additional entrance fee Of SO cents
will also be asked for breeding pen,
consisting of one male and four fe-
males and SO cents for trio of pit
games. All specimens will compete
single before being in the pen class
For the past few years the breeding
of high grad. birds has peen carrrec
on with unqualified success in thise
valley, until now, the birds entered
from here are nearly always in the
first prize class. BY systematic culling
and cross breeding these results have
been obtained and a glimpse of the
pens at the coming poultry show will
convince everyone that the birds con-
fined there are among the best on ex-
hibition.

The sight of Jake Kaufman and

The prs siden, recommends the
holding Of an exposition in 1919. the
hftieth anniversary of the issuance of
the emancipation proclamation. to
show the progress the negroes haye
made.
In conclusion, the president says:
Eve Of Expansion
Il have thus. in a message, COM
pressed as much as the subjects will
permit, referred TO many of the exc
cutive needs of the country with the
exceptions already noted Speaking
generally the country is in high
state of prosperity. There is every
reason to believe that we are on the
eve of substantial businss expansion.
and we have just garnered a harvest
unexampled in the market value Of our
agricultural products. The high prices
which such products bring mean grsat
prosperity for the farming community.
But, On the other hand, they mean a
very considerably increased burden
upon those classes i'm the community
whose yearly compensation does not
expand with the Improvement in bust
ness and the general prosperity. Var
ious reasons are given for the high
prices. The proportionate increase IN
the output of gold, which today is the
chief medium of exchange and is IN
some respects measure of value, fur
nishes a substantial explanation OF af
least part OF the increase in pricer-
The increase in population and the
people, which have not been accom-
panied by a prOportiOnate increase In
the output of gold, which today is the
chief medium OF exchange and Is in
some respects a measure Of value. fur
nishes a substantial explanation OF at
least part of the increase in prices
The increase in population and' the
more expensive mode of living Of the
people, which have not been accom-
panied by a proportionate increase IN
acreage production, may furnish fur-
Their reason. 1t is well to note that
the increase in the cost OF living is not
confined to this country, but prevails
the world over and that these VINO
would charge increases I'm prices 10 the
existing protective tariff, must meet
the fact that the rise in prices has
taken place almost wholly in those pro-
ducts of the factory and farm in re-
spect to which there has been either
no increase in the tariff or in many IN
stances a very considerable reduction"
