Joke on Prof. Severance.

Now that Prof. George Sever
ance is gone, it will do no harm
to tell a good joke on him. In
December, 1908, Prof. Severance
who was secretary of the wheat
convention, was anxious to get
the coming meeting advertised as
much as possible. He wrote a let
ter to the editor of The Spolles-
man-Review asking that the dates
OF the coming wheat convention
be published in that papers di-
rectory Of coming events" AZ
ter writing the letter and before
he had mailed it, he got The
Spokesman-Reyiew and noticed
that the dates were being pub
hshed IN the directory. Instead
OF destroying the letter, he added
postscript, saying;
"P. 81 see you already have
the dates in your directory" and
mailed the letter to the editor.

Of his work in the eastern insti-

The "Insurgent' Cause.

Tho decisive defeat of Speaker
connon in the fight to secure the
commitment Of the committee to
;aar,rlestioate the charges against
d is greater victory
IN Is shown on its face. 1t means
W.. .,,a Growth of the "lnsurgent
oause and that the days OF Can
uan : iron rule by which he has
h hoen able to stihe all legislation
;nimicable to the trusts Will soon
and No one can doubt that the
American people are becoming
aronsed over the high-handed
manner in which Aldrich, Cannon
and other mighty powers i'll con
Dress have been able to suppress
everything that might give the
neople a better chance, and the
sttirnde of President Taft in not
only working for the passage or
defeat of laws as Cannon and Al
drich may demand, but III trying
to make the people believe these
are right. That there will be rev
oluton in politics seems certain
and that the republican party
must cleanse itself Of many OF It's
present leaders or go down to de-
feat. is a certainty.
The American people will not
stand for injustice, when once
they are fully aroused and realize
which is the cause of justice. They
can no longer be whipped into
line by the party bosses. The cry
of the Grand Old Party or
the Party Of Thomas Jefferson y
will no longer blind the people
and cause them to vote as the
party leaders dictate. The insur-
gents" may be punished by Pres
ident Taft and Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock, but that will only
incite the people to greater ac-
ton, and in the next election
there will be many changes in the
personnel Of the lower house Of
congress, The "Insurgents" will
easily make enough gains to con
troll the house, and then it will
be good bye to the high hand
ed methods of railroading legis-
latlon desired by the trusts, or
suppressing anything mfavorable
to the money power which have
controlled Legislation for many
years
Tie next congressional election
will be an important one. This
!, district will lose Congressman
aPondexter, who has been a friend
|Pf the people and has stood
'squarely with the "Insurgents"
and against Cannon and his
crowd. 1t is important that we
elect a man Of the same strong
character and good principles to
succeed him. This district may be
able to decide national legislation
OF vast Importance Our congress-
man may be able to cast the de-
Gldlng vote on important matters.
We must send a man whose sym
pathles are with the people, and
VINO has the courage to stand up
Tor his honest convictions. Can
you think of any one whom this
description fits better than it fits
non William L. La Toilette, of
Pullman?

PRICE OF FARM PRODUCTS
Everything Produced BY the
Farmers of the Palouse
Country Brings Big
Profits.

Not ollte' SIilce FARMING became
the leadlhg occupation Of the Pa,
louSe country have prices Of farm
products ranged as high as they
are now commanding. There have
been Tunes, no doubt, when a few
products brought as high. or even
higher prices than can now be OBJ
tanned, but there has never been
a time when all products brought
as nigh prices as they now bring.
Inc year I9O9 will go down in his
tory as the most prosperous year
the falouSe country had known
up to that time, but the indica-
mons are that 1910 will be as good
and may be better.
The prospects for big crop
OF all kinds OF gram are bright
for there Is more moisture i'll the
ground than ever before at this
time OF the year. Farmers know
more about the scientific part of
farming than ever before and
have better tools and equipment
and, as rule, their farms are in
better condition than ever before.
The prospects Tor bic prices this
year are equally bright, for the
grain bins will be empty when
harvest begins and the shortage
OF hogs, cattle and horses cannot
be made up III a single year. Men
who are well posted on conditions
believe that high prices for farm
products will continue for several
years.
With these conditions confront
ing the farmers of the Palouse
country the outlook is exceeding
Iy bright. and it is certain thai
land values are bound to advance
and reach the point where they
really belong. There is no denying
the fat that land is selling in the
vicinity OF Pullman for less than
it is really worth. and that it will
pay interest ON much higher val
ues than are now placed upon it.
Take a view of the prices paid
for products Of the farms near
Pullman and see how they com
pare with those of former years.
Wheat is worth 81 or more per
bushel. Barley is worth $25 per
ton; oats are worth $2S to $50 per
ton. Hay brings from $l2 to SIS
per ton. Hogs are in demand at
$3.50 per 100 pounds and he
price is expected to reach 10
cents before March |. Fat cattle
command prices ranging from

4 GERMAN CHEMIST
 KILLED BY 4 BALLOON
At :he Moment He was Escaping From

Breslau, Prussia. April 4.-Prof. Richard Abegg. a distinguished chem ist and professor of chemistry at the University of Bresllu. was killed while attempting landing following a bal loon flight yesterday.
 Prof Abegg ascended here yester- day in the balloon Silesia which be longs to the aeronautic society. He was accompanied by woman relative and Karl Gerstel, an engineer.
 Strong wind currents were encOun- tered and when the balloon reached the vicinity of TeSsin. in Mechlenburg Schwerin, it was decided too dangerous to continue the flight Accordingly the gas valve was opened and the bal loon dropped slowly to the earth.
 Gerstel and the woman landed safely but before the professor could get out of the basket a gust of wind caught up the half-deflated balloon bag and dragged the basket along the ground for some distance. Abegg's skull was crushed and his legs broken. He died soon afterWard.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE

One was the extreme thinneSs of the market in the periods when there were any stirrings of animation. That the mOn- ey market is unaffected by gold eX- ports movement and by the low sur plus reserve. shown by the Saturday bank statement. is due to the lanquid demand for stock market purposes.
