At our last meeting we had with
us Mrs. Helen D. Hartford, state sup
erintendent of Christian Citizenship,
lecturer and organizer, who address
ed the ladies on the work of the w.
C. T. U. She spoke encouragingly
of the progress of prohibition and
the temperance work in general. At
the close refreshments were served.
At o'clock she spoke in the Baptist
church to an appreciative audience.
The theme was Law Enforcement.
Mr.. Mclean, of the Presbyterian
church, and Mr. Lovett, of the Bap-
tist church, both spoke for few
minutes at this meeting, and all
heartily agreed that the enforcement
of law is the question now before
this city, needing the attention and
hearty support of all loyal citizens.
Sunday Afternoon, Mrs. Hartford
spoke at Fruitdale and Sunday even
ing occupied the pulpit of the New
man NJ. E, church.
Monday afternoon, at 4 o'clock,
an l.. T. l.. rally was held in the
parlors of Bethany Presbyterian
church and Mrs. Hartford delightful
ly entertained the little ones in her
usual bright way. Five names were
secured for the legion.
At s O'Clock Monday evening, a
meeting of the Y's was held in the
same place at which time Mrs. Har-
ford told of the splendid work the
US were doing and advised Japan
ese tea in the near future for the
Grants Pass Y's. This coming to-
gether resulted in six new members
for the w. c. T. U.
Every meeting was an inspiration
for better service on the part of
those fortunate enough to hear her.
Notes of victory come to us from
all over our country and we rejoice
accordingly. The citizens of Berke-
ley, CAL, have voted no saloons for
that university town.

And if the giant skyline Of New
York staggers the imagination, what
of the marvellous network of pipes and
wires and tunnels under the streets?
The separate wires buried under the
pavements of the metropolis would
reach twenty times around the world.
There is more than Sl2, 200, 900 of cop.
per in them. Single cables carry a
thousand wires. Down beside the
myriad electric channels hidden under
the city rushes a daily supply of about
$50, 600, 900 gallons of sparkling water,
OF which 1926 1000, 900 gallons come from
clear mountain lake through two
aqueducts, one of them tunneled
through rock and earth for twenty
eight miles. New Workers pay their
city sll, 100000 year for drinking
water. 1t takes 100000 pounds of
food day to supply the city. There
are about 100 theatres, 1900 churches
and nearly 10000 saloons. In the
midst of this rushing life 1O5, 533 cases
of contagious diseases are reported in
year. On and over and under the
streets of New York are 865 miles of
surface, subway and elevated railway
tracks, owned by one corporation and
capitalized in stocks and bonds at the
well-nigh incredible sum of S70l, 1876, =.

ways looking for, for it is the farmer
that is constantly complaining that
bran and shorts are too high in price.
Very few people realize that this price
is regulated by the amount of wheat
that is made by the American miller.
no matter what the price of oats, corn
or other food stuff may be. And
again if the Canadian wheat comes in
free it means more work for the Amer
lean labcrer, more freight to haul for
the American railroads which is now
handled by the English roads. This
would not reduce the price of wheat
one penny for the simple reason that
all imported wheat would have to be
exported in the shape of flour; other
wise the miller would not get the re-
bate OF duty. At present we can ex-
port very little flour and will only
then be in a position to do it when the
Canadian miller has sold all of his
flour. The farmer has been misled
and his opinion has been distorted by
the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES in congress
who always pose as the farmers
friend when they seek their own poll.

New York City.

1t is possible to go for forty miles in
a straight line in New York without
leaving the city. The streets of New
York placed end to end would reach
to San Francisco, and several hundred
miles out into the Pacific ocean.
More than 126, 900 persons are born
in New York in a year, as many as
the inhabitants of Columbus, the CAPT.
tai city of Ohio. More than $1,000
New Workers die in year, enough to
make three cities as large as Ma
con, Ga.
Two hundred and eighty-three years
ago the whole of Manhattan Island
was bought by Peter Minuet, the New
York governor for the West India Co.,
for q few trinkets valued at S24. The
Indians were glad to get somuch from
the Dutch for their hunting grounds.
Several years ago ground at the cor
ner OF Broadway and Wall street sold
at 1924 for six square inches, when a
lot measuring 80 by 80 feet brought
500, 900. The reddish tower of the
Singer building is 642 feet high. The
tower alone cost $1,000 600 to build.
Below it spreads the white mass of the
City Investing building, which cost
$40, 900, 900, and whose twenty three
elevator can carry 10000 persons an
hour. That one structure houses the
population of q small city. Close by
are the twin Trinity buildings, valued
at SIG, 000, 600, and opposite to them
stands the Equitable Life Insurance
building, property representing 500
O00, 900. Even the ground of the small
Trinity graveyard, set at the head OF
Wall street is worth s25, 900, 900. Away
in the distance, the white marble tower

of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
building lifts its noble mass 700 feet
above Madison Square. That vast edi-
fee represents an investment of S2O,-
600, 900, and contains more than 5000
inhabitants. its cost exceeds the as
sessed value of all the taxable proper

Ark, and its dwellers equal the whole

600. Here, there, everywhere, are mas
sive structures, in each of which are
populations large enough to make
whole towns. So tremendous is the
city's growth that one years building
plans represent cost of $3.50, 0OO, 900.
There are nearly 10000 policemen
in 1920 miles of streets. Their pay
alone amounts yearly to S12, S65, 1858.
They made PA, 1922 arrests last year.
To clean the streets they guard costs
81, Ais, 299 for a single year. The parks
of the amazing city cover fourteen
square miles, including some of its
choicest ground. It is said that they
contain more than $500, 900 trees, and
are valued at 81, 800, 0OO, 600. In other
words, the parks owned by New York
contain more land than the big city of
Rochester, n. Y, and could be sold
for enough to pay the entire national
debts Of Holland, Switzerland, Sweden
and Turkey. Think Of city that has
built 5A schoolhsuses at q cost of

Golfers: Are we to be robbed of
all our villains and favorite monsters,
and to live in dull gray world of
virtue, where heroes are diversified
but by saints? In the audience of the
people, Mr.. Rockefeller has exposed
Eaamself as a gentle-souled old philan-
shropist. In his old age he has shown
himself naked to his enemies, and
challenged them to find cloven hoof.
Then came Ferrero, the Italian his
atorian, to clear the name of Nero from
all faint. He pricked the bubble of
his reputation as tyrant, and showed
him up in all his hopeless mediocrity,
as an essentially commonplace per-
sonage. And now comes the rehabili-
tation for Russia and its rulers. The
conserv alive London papers are

phere for the car, about to visit
Albion's chalk cliffs, and for the Du-
ma members, who have already tested

Tariff is Law.

The nation is saved aid the poor
infant industries will be kept on a
nourishing tariff diet to be paid for
by the guileless consumer. William
Howard Taft signed his name to the
Payne tariff bill as it has been
amended by the joint congressional
committee and prepared the most re-
markable statement that has ever
come from any president. The re-
publican party kept it's word in part
it had not kept it's word-still it had
been as truthful as possible the bill
after all was a victory-victory for
every body-so ran Taft's statement.
He said in part:
~ have signed the Payne tariff bill
because believe it to be the result of
a sincere effort on the part of the
Republican party to make a down.
ward revision and to comply with the
promises of the platform as they have
been generally understood, and as I
interpreted them in the campaign be-
tore elected.
''The bill is not perfect tariff bill,
or a complete compliance with the
promises made, strictly interpreted;
but fulfllment free from criticism in
respect to subject matter involving
many schedules and thousands of ar
6icles could not be expected. 1t suffces
to say that except with regard to
whisky, liquors and wines. and in re-
gard to silks and as to some high
classes of cottons-all of which may
be treated as luxuries and proper
subjects of revenue tariff-there
have been very few increases in rates. F"
Beverage of Indiana, Bristow OF
Kansas, Clapp and Nelson of Mime
sofa, Cummins and Dolliver of Iowa
and LaFollette of Wisconsin voted
S'No" in the senate when the bill came
up for passage there, thus breaking
with the almost solid lineup of their
party. Dolliver called the bill an
organized swindle, which should have
made Taft feel uncomfortable. La
Toilette refrained from extended
speech making but fled as matter Of
record exhaustive tabulations secured
10y the bureau of manufacturers of the
department of commerce and labor to
show that as the bill stood it repre-.
sented 286 increases in duty and IS
decreases. This throws pleasant
light on Taft's statement, which as a
model of equivocation, stands almost
peerless. The guiding principle OF
the tariff favored the trusts, as raw
material is for the most part on the
free list while manufactured products
were made the subject of high duties.

Americans will suffer from heat and
die from heat so long as they persist
in regarding as a show a man or
woman who dresses appropriately.
Vice-President Sherman appeared at
Washington the other day in cotton
suit, and was laughed at by superior
persons who we're sweltering in heavy
woolen clothing. Fashion is tickle in
some things, but in the matter of
summer wearing apparel it is a Bour-
bon, a Tory and mossback. Most
of our cities are built exclusively for
cold weather. Most of our clothing is
designed for use in Greenland. Most
of our habits of life are such as might
be practiced safely enough within the
Arctic circle. Yet, for three months
or more of each year, the most popu-
lous parts of the United States are
subjected to blazing suns and swept
by tropical breezes. Sunstrokes, ex-
haustion, mania, suicide, and all
manner OF ills follow upon our persis-
tence in carrying into midsummer the
clothing, the diet, the habits of life
and industry which, appropriate
enough in the region of perpetual
SHOWS, would be sheer madness in the
vicinity of the equator. -Atchison
