will look with admiration. Atty wears
from now, upon the instinct. If we
cannot call 1t wisdom, displayed in es-
tablishing higher institutions of learn
ing, for fundamentally the political
and social problems now facing us as
people are educational. Their solu :
ton depends upon the intelligence of
the people and their ways of thinking,
bringing IN consequence upon the ma
chinery of education, not only the
education of citizens, but the training
of their thought and conclusions, so
that they may solve important mat
ters of state serenely and justly. 1t
may be argued, especially by the users
OF bon mots and sharp sayings. that
university training does not necessari-
ly mean either education or intelli-
gence, but the fact remains that,
though our schools may have sent out
Impractical men now and then, they
have given US people with high

the fact remains that the days OF

gone by This statement is true not
only In the field Of the mechanical in :

and even government. Business in

are insisting that they shall not be
the victims OF experiment. Trained
men and women become as a conse-

true that university and college have
not realized the task before them. but
impelled by public opinion, guided by

SHEEP SEASON is
ALMOST AT HEIGHT.
FEW DAYS WILL SEE EASTERN
OREGON WOOL SEASON IN
FULL SWING-SONIE GROWERS
IN ARLINGTON COUNTY HAVE
CLIPS READY FOR MARKET
SALES DATES ALL SET.

The shearing of sheep has COM
menced, the buyers of wool are gath
ering in Pendleton from all parts of
the east and from the south and a
few days more will see Eastern Ore
gon's wool season at its height. From
present indications it will be one of
the most important and prosperous
seasons the growers of wool in this
state have ever enjoyed.
Shearing has been in progress in
the Arlington country for several
days. Some growers have their clips
ready for the market, others will
finish up this week, but the great
majority are just getting ready to
begin shearing. The Cunningham
Sheep and Land company, one of the
largest sheep companies in the state,
will finish up this week, while the
]. E. Smith company, another large
concern, is installing the machinery
for their shearing plant and will be
in full sw'~~ by the first of next
week.
Reports rrv... all sections where
any shearing at all has been done
are to the effect that the fleeces are
remarkably free from dirt this year,
while the staple is fully up to the
standard, being both long and firm.
The condition of the market is good
and with the quality of the wool as
good as any ever produced in eastern
Oregon it is expected that the prices
will be good.
The buyers seem anxious to bid on
the diff ferent clips, but so far no
sales have been reported. The
sheepmen are very well satisfied
with the condition of the market
and unless prices better than those
being offered at present are forth
coming it is probable that larger
percentage ofthe crop will be held
for sales days than was held last
year. The general sentiment seems
to prevail that 20 cents will be the
ruling price, depending entirely on
the uuality-East Oregonian.

handle and push the syndicate
products. The syndicate desires, in
effect, to get the retail druggists to
commit the offense of substitution, +"
and the entire trend of its efforts
will be to displace the physician and
his prescription, as well as the
products of the established manufac-
turer of proprietary medicines, ethi-
cal and non-ethical. So it would
seem that the druggist who has
the magic letters ADS" on his
window is not the man that should
be encouraged by the profession of
physicians, so far, at least, as pro-
noting the products ofthe A. D. S. is
concerned.

w. PENN WATSON
DIES IN CALIFORNIA

William Penn Watson, one Of Ore
CONS most prominent citizens 20
years ago, died at Long Beach, Cal,
yesterday from the effects of an
operation which he was unable to
stand at his advanced age. Mr..
Watson was "a years of age and
was prominent in politics and in
fair circles in this state. He was
president of the state fair board a
number of years.
Mr.. Watson was well-known to
all the old residents of Hood River
and he had one of the very first ap-
pie orchards in the Hood River val
ley. He was recognized as one of
the foremost horticulturists in the
United States and was an exponent
of dry farming. He was born In
Morgan county, Illinois.
Mr.. Watson's death is the first one
in the Watson family. Although
married 60 years and the head of a
family of children, his death is the
first bit of sorrow that his family
has ever had. Besides this wife, 5
children, 19 grandchildren and one
great grandchild survive him. He
was a remarkably hale and healthy
man all his life, being fond of out
door life.
Up till foursyears ago, Mr.. Watson
resided in Portland. He was born
in Illinois, coming to PORTLAND in
1S47 with his wife. There his fam
lily was raised. His children were:
John Watson of the Loevenberg &c
Going Co., of Portland; Mrs. e. w.
Rowe, of Portland; Jesse Watson,

PHARMACEUTICAL DIFFERENCES
(From the Medical Sentinel.

(From the Medical Sentinel.
1t is not our fight, and we know
enough to keep away from things
that don't belong to us, but we can
not refrain from at least calling at
tention to the differences of opin-
ion that prevail in pharmaceutical
circles. The National Association
of Retail Druggists has been Wig
orously attacked by the journal of
the American Medical Association.
The reason is because of the alleged
connivance by the druggists associa-
tion, with the American Druggists
Syndicate, which syndicate is in the
business of putting out patent
medicines. The A. M. A. Journal
believes that there is a coalition be-
tween the drug concerns, by which
the physician will be side-stepped.
The retail druggist are supposed to
be in league with each other to pro-
mote the sale Of proprietaries to the
ailing multitude without going to the
physician for advice and diagnosis.
The idea is that the drug clerk will
look at the tongue of the sufferer;
come to a hasty conclusion at to
what the trouble is, reach behind
the counter for one of the many
preparations of the A. D. s., and
send off the purchaser rejoicing,
much to the detriment of the gen.
eral public health.
The druggists in some parts of
the country do not wish to bring
down on their heads the contumely
of the physicians who send them
prescriptions. So in Philadelphia,
for example, the druggist are with
drawing from membership in the
National Retail Druggists Associa-
tion, believing that this is the only
way they can satisfy the physicians
that they are not In the counter pre-
scribing business. 1t is very clear
that II the druggists go to prescrib-
ing, the doctors will more generally
go to dispensing. The attitude of
the physicians of the country at this
time on this subject is one OF Bus-
picion. There are too many drug
gists today who are prescribing,
more than is allowable according TO
the ethics of'their profession. The
physicians Of the country, and all In
telltgent people with them, believe
that. the physician is better able to
dispense than the pharmacist is to
prescribe. 1t is very undesirable e
that there should be anything but
the closest and most friendly un-
derstaAding between the pharmacist
and the physician. Their interests
should be the same, when the ques-
tion arises OF ministering to the af-
flicted. A happy-go-lucky plan Of
diagnosing sickness from across the
counter by a graduate Of a pharma-
ceutical school without opportunity
OF examination. TO say nothing Of
the absolute lack OF training on the
part of the drug clerk, is entirely
opposed to ali humanitarian prln-
ciples. 10 say nothing more.
The American Druggists Syndicate
Is apparently organized solely for
the purpose OF manufacturing patent
medicines, so-called, and Il seegs 10

ALL EYES ON ST. Ia. X. NJ. II +. KY.
Wall Street journal Takes Notice of
Proposed Santa Fe Purchase.

The report of the trip of President
Ripley through New Mexico has at
tracted attention in Wall street. The
Wall Street Journal gives some inter
esting information about the st. Louis,
Rocky Mountain & Pacific railway,
which Mr.. Ripley was alleged to have
his eye on. Says the Journal:
"A director of the st. Louis, Rocky
Mountain &, Pacific Co. says that pres
ent earnings are at the rate of about
per cent on the 100000 COM
mon stock after deducting per cent
for the $1,000, 900 preferred. No divi-
dends have been paid by the company
and probably will not be for several
years, as 1t is the intention of the
management to turn back all surplus
into the property for further develop
men: work.
within the last six months the
company's coal business has shown
good Improvement, the best market
being that for domestic coal through
out Texas Coke has recently been

dent; J. W. Yardley, vice president,
and E. G.. Wolf, cashier. The Park
Junction State bank was organized
about four years ago and as the bust
ness has grown so they can hardly
handle it in their present location, the
idea of a night and day bank came up.
The bank will not be run all night,
however, as Kansas City does not de-
mand it now, but will be open until 9
o'clock week days and II o'clock Sat
urday nights.
The bank has been approved by

TO SELL INTERLINE TICKETS.
Oklahoma VIII Force Railroads to
Simplify Passenger Sales.

In an effort to make travelling easier
for the public, the railroad commission
of Oklahoma has issued an order
which has caused CONSERVATION among
the roads. The order intimates that
unless the roads are willing to sell
interline tickets that will enable pas
sengers to start at any point in the
state and reach any other railroad
point without buying a second ticket
the commission will try to force them
to do so.
Several citizens of Oklahoma City
ness of that city would be greatly en-
HANGED provided people from every
section of the state could get there
without buying several tickets, and the
new order was the result.
The railroad officials declare that
they will not comply with the order,
but will appeal to the courts. The
railroad men say they are willing to
do anything within reason that will
make travel more comfortable, but are
not ready to issue interline tickets on
such wholesale basis. The railroads

law that would enable the commission
to enforce such an order.
The railroads in the west are maxi
ing strenuous efforts to comply with
the recent law passed in the interest
regarding the law have been issue d

and by the Transcontinental Passen-
ger association and the Western Pas

SANTA FE REPORT is THE TALL
Wall Street Excited Over Activity of
President Ripley.

New York, Oct. 6.-Atchison's an
nual report attracted wide attention,
largely on account of the active part
played by President Ripley in the
freight rate controversy, partly be-
cause of the record earnings for 1910
and partly because of the following re-
marks made by President Ripley to
Atchison shareholders regarding the
general situation, saying that the prop
erty is in excellent condition physical
~ and the company has made provi-
son for its present financial needs, but
that in view of the unsettled economic
conditions of the country and the i'm
possibility Of accurately forecasting
the trend of current events, especial
ly as applied to railroad interests, the
directors feel that it is necessary to
proceed with caution even as to those
improvements and extensions which
are most desirable from the standpoint
of the public welfare and which are
imperatively demanded.
In his fifteenth annual report Presi-
dent Ripley said: Unsettled economic
conditions chiefly in regard the pend
ing ruling Of the interstate commerce
commission on the western railroads
petition for raise in freight rates will
make it necessary for the directors of

As to the alleged inability of the

develop its coal lands the facts are
that they mined and shipped from
their mines over 1,20O,00 tons of coal
during the past year and they are now
operating two of the largest produc-
ing coal mines in the Rocky mountain
region, and are prepared to increase
their outputs as demand requires.
