Welded in CHURCH
Miss Marea Reimer Becomes Bride of
Mr.. Henry Peters.

SALT CREEK, Or, Feb. 14-One of
the most beautiful weddings ever wit
messed by the people of Salt Creek
took place in the Mennonite Brethren
Church, Wednesday, February 8, 1910,
when Henry Peters and Miss Marea
Reimer were united in the holy bonds
of matrimony.
The congregation was called to or
der by song and the young couple
came marching to the altar, where,
after brief sermon on the subject of
matrimony, Rev. H. Voth pronounced
the words that made them husband
and wife. The bride was dressed in
white and wore a beautiful wreath of
flowers on her head.
The young woman has many friends
in this neighborhood who wish her a
happy married life. Mr.. Peters is
not so well known, but has gained
many friends during his short stay
here. The young couple will leave next
week for their new home in Quincy,
where they expect to set
tie on a farm. The best wishes of all
go with them in their new relation.

Arm Is Broken.

Margery Holman, the little daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Holman, fell
from her chair one day last week and
painfully injured one of her arms. II
was not thought at first that any bones
had been broken, but the little girl
continued to complain of the pain un-
til yesterday when her father brought
her to town and had the arm examined
by the X-ray in Doctor Starbuck's Of
flee. The examination showed that
both bones of the forearm had been
broken by the fall. The bones were
properly set and the little girl is now
on the road to recovery.

WINS TWO MORE GAMES
Dallas Basketball Team Defeats Che
mawa and McMinnville.

The Dallas College basketball team
still holds first place in the Oregon
college league, with a percentage of
1000 having defeated both Chemawa
and McMinnville within the last week.
The game played in Dallas last Thurs
day night resulted in victory over
the Indians by score of 40 to 19. Nc
Minnville was defeated on its own
floor by a score of 20 to 8.
Manager Fenton had been slightly
disabled by a sprained ankle and did
not play in the McMinnville game. His
place at center was taken by Claude
Shaw, Rice going in as guard. Dallas
played a brilliant game and never once
permitted it's opponent to score field
basket. The three points scored by
McMinnville were all made from the
foul line.
The big game of the season, and the
one which will doubtless draw the
largest crowd, will be played on the
home floor on Saturday night of this
week, when the Dallas boys will meet
their ancient and honorable enemy
the Multnomah team. The Portland
lads recently defeated Dallas on the
Multnomah court, and Dallas now ex-
poets to turn the tables. Indeed, so
closely matched have these two teams
become, and so nearly identical is
their style of play, that the winning or
losing of game depends largely upon
which court it is played. The game
Saturday night will be full of ginger
from start to finish, as the contest will
decide whether third meeting will be
necessary to decide the championship
for the year 1910. Lovers of the popu-
lar winter sport who wish to see a
good game should secure their seats
early for the Saturday night contest.
The Philomath team will come to
Dallas on February 25, and the season
will probably close with games with
University and the Univer-
sity of Oregon early in March.

DALLAS MAN FIRST
Tax Rolls for 1909 Now i'm Hands of
Sheriff Grant.

Miles Davis, the South Dallas gro
ceryman, was the first citizen of Polk
County to pay his 1909 taxes when the
rolls were opened in Sheriff Grants
office yesterday. Mr.. Davis enriched
the county treasury in the sum of
$46.92. Zimri Hinshaw, of Falls City,
got receipt No. 2, paying therefor
$25.44.
1t is expected that tax paying will be
lively between now and March Is, as
many taxpayers will desire to avail
themselves of the benefit of the per
cent rebate granted by law to the
prompt payers.

Studying the Law.

In the old days when oral examina-
tions were still the thing, an exam
lining board was pummeling an appn-
cant with questions from Blackstone
Keat and other famous legal lights.
81 didn't study anything about those
fellows" complained the applicant.
What did you study?" asked one OF
the judges.
81 studied the statutes of the states"
he replied. Il studied them hard. ASK
me a question about them and III
show you. That is where got all my
legal knowledge
my young friends" said one aus
tere Judge on the examining board.
you had better be very careful for
some day the legislature might meet
and repeal everything you know.

"Mr. JONES'" said the senior partner
In the wholesale dry goods house to

"Yes, SIR"
And you ought to know the rules
of the house. One of them is that no
man of ours shall take a side line"
But have none, sir"
But you have lately got married"
Yes; but can you call that side
line. Mr.. Jones?"

A Hint to Younu Lawyers.

Some time before Judge S. S. Ford
was elected to the common pleas
bench he was employed as attorney
for the defense in a case in criminal
court. The jury was out three hours,
but finally brought in a verdict Of
mot guilty"
Next day Judge Ford met one of
the jurors in the case.
well, we set your man Free" the
JUROR said. "He was as innocent as
q new born baby"
Certainly he was" remarked Judge
Ford 81 was little surprised at the
length of your deliberations
"Ill tell you about that" said the
Juror. IF you had rested your case
when the state got through we would
have acquitted your man in second
That testimony you put In for the de-
fense sort of ratified us"
I'm an old Juror. Judge, and I want
to give you a word of advice. When
in a trial by Jury you are defending
an innocent man keep him off the wit
ness stand. d."-Cleveland Leader.

INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION
Extensive Plan of Supervision Of Rail-
roads In Canada and United
States.

1t is probable that an international
railway commission, with supervision
over the railroads of this country and
taken by the government in the appoint
ment of Chairman Martin A. Knapp
of the interstate commerce commits
sion, as a representative of the United
States, to confer with j. l.. Mabee,
chief of the railway commission OF
Canada His appointment and that
of Mr. Mabee Is the result of consid-
cradle correspondence and diplomatic
interchange between the United States
and Canada.
More than a year ago the subject
was broached first in a letter from
Mr. Mabee to Judge Knapp. 1t was
pointed out that the increasing traf-
fic between the United States and
Canada would render full control over
rates in the future more difficult un-
less some joint action were taken. 1t
was realized that the acquisition OF
Canadian terminals by American
roads and of American roads and
terminals by Canadian roads present
ed ever-increasing difficulties. In the
present conditions 1t is not possible to
compel railway or express companies
to establish joint through rates to and
from points in the two countries.
The reasonableness of rates between
points in this country and points in
Canada also is question of serious
Importance to shippers. In order to
determine any given question as to
rates that may arise it is necessary
for the shipper to institute proceed
ing before the interstate commerce
commission and the Canadian railway
commission, and the result is not sat
isfactory. The difficulty practically
precludes any inquiry by existing tri-
bunals as to the reasonableness of
combination through rates as applied
to international traffic.

the avowed intention of proceeding to
California is engaging the official at
tention of William II. Michael, the
American consul general here.
Some of those who are turning their
faces toward the New World are TAX

greater number belong to the fighting
castes and are under the impression
that they can get on the American po-
lice force! They are confident that
they can at least get posts as watch
men.
The emigrants explain that they
have relatives in California who have
written them saying that they have
found a good land and urging those ad-
dressed to join them.
Fifteen hundred natives sailed for
the East on five ships last month and
many more are preparing to follow

KEIFER DROPS sWALLoWTAlL
Veteran Congressman Causes Surprise
When He Enters House Wear
Ing a Business Suit.

Shortly before congress adjourned
the house received a shock when Gen.
]. Warren Keifer, veteran OF two
wars, thirty-seven battles and nine
congressional campaigns. covering
period of more than half a century Of
public life, marched In attired In
suit of drab oxford gray. 1t was
sack suit. The only remaining ves-
tige of the generals former attire
was the dress vest, Of black broad
cloth. Gen. Keifer has worn evening
dress in the daytime for many years.
"I am going out to Ohio in few
days" said he. THE tailor persuaded
me that this would prove more COM
frotable travelling attire than my swal-
lowtail. will not promise that the
change shall be permanent"
Speaker Cannon noted the change
with deepest emotion and trusted that
Gen. Keifer's insurgency would extend
no further.
Gen. Keifer was speaker in the
early days of Mr.. Cannon's service in
the house.
The general was quiet for nearly
40 minutes after the invocation, but
before the day was ended he had par
ticipated in not less than six acrimoni-
GUS colloquys, and had made three
five-minute speeches, so his friends
felt assured that the change had made
no appreciable difference in the men
tai activity of the war horse OF Re-
publicanism.
Most perturbed were the profession
al guides. However they have had
four things to point out to visitors to
the house gallery. The patter Of the
guides used to run as follows:
"The nervous elderly gentleman sit
ting at the marble desk with the lit
tie mallet in his hand is Speaker Can
non. The handsome man with the
white lawn tie like a Methodist
preacher is the democratic leader,
Champ Clark of Missouri. The young
man with the head that shines like
helliograph at monday is Repre-
sentative Nicholas Longworth OF Ohio.
and the gentleman in the dress suit
with the white whiskers is Gen. J..
Warren Keifer, who was speaker of
the Forty-seventh congress from 1881
to 1888"
Champ Clark has discarded the
white lawn ties. That Jared the
guides. They held a mass meeting in
the rotunda at night and adopted res
olutions requesting Gen. Keifer to re-
turn to his well-known habiliaments.
They told him that If the speaker
were deposed next session and Long
worth adopted wig they would have
to go out of business.
