Autos in State

The growing popularity Of the auto
mobile in Wisconsin is evident in the
records in the Office of Secretary OF
State Frear, where licenses are is
sued according to law, not only to
users of machines but to dealers as
well. Since January l, 1910 there have
been 1885 automobile licenses issued
as against 529 in the same time a
year ago; this in spite of the fact that
the license fee has been doubled, in
creased from 81 to 81, in the mean
time
In the same time the number of
dealers registering has increased
from twenty in 1909 to forty-seven in
1910; that is new dealers entering the
field as sellers of auto machines.
The whole number of cars now reg
istered in Wisconsin as revealed in
the records is 1898 and motorcy-
cles 679, while the whole number OF
dealers in automobiles is 256 and mo-
torcycle dealers six.
Dealers licenses are for the pro-
lection of dealers and the fee is So,
which entities the holder to four num-
Der plates to be used on cars for
demonstration purposes. The dealer
who is showing off his wares at
speed, without one of these numbers
is subject to penaIty.
The license fee of 81 fer owners is
not an annual fee as many have sup
DOSad hit is good as long as the ma.
chine lasts in the ownership of the
person to whom the certificate and
number is issued. If the machine is
sold, however, or its ownership trans
ferred the license at once becomes
void and the new owner must apply
for a license in his own name, paying
the 50 fee.

DEPARTMENT HOUSE TO
COST 10000 DOLLARS

Spokane, Wash-Four hundred
thousand dollars is the estimated cost
OF four story triangle-shaped de-
partment house, with a frontage Of
$50 feet, to be erected in the north
ern part Of Spokane by Charles Jas
per and ]. G. Malmgren. The Ger
man style Of architecture will be fol-
lowed, an acre Of ground in the CEN
ter OF the structure being devoted to
lawn, shrubs and flowers. This ar
rangement will give natural light to
every room in the building, designed
to accommodate 129 families. The
apartment will be arranged in suites
Of from three to five rooms each. The
heating plant will be 30 feet below
the ground floor and special lighting
and water systems will be installed.
The surrounding grounds on the nine
acre tract selected as a site for the big
structure are to be beautiful with
shade trees, flower beds, grass plots
and play grounds. There will also be
private driveways and a large garage
Mr.. Molmgren, who prepared the
plans for the building, says It will be
different from any structure on the
American continent

that society at large will be benefit
ted greatly because the prosperity Of
any country depends largely upon
tire state Of this one industry.
There are two general reasons for
the rapid increase in the number OF
agricultural students. says the Ameri-
can Farmer.
The first and the one that attracts
most OF the study Of agricultural sci
ence, is the general realization of its
value in the business of farming.
Graduates OF agricultural colleges are
making good" on their own farms
or on the farms of their employers
But there is another reason which
leads many students TO take up agri-
cultural courses. This is the enor-
nous demand for graduates in agri-
culture TO fill positions in agrlcul-
tural colleges. experiment stations. de-
paruments OF agriculture and private
enterprises. Young men newly gard
Uated from agricultural colleges are
employed as instructors at salaries
which professors OF ten or twenty
years experience in other lines have
not attained. The opportunity to be-
gin work upon graduation at a salary
which other scientists, doctors, law
yers, etc, cannot realize for several
years is a powerful attraction to the
boy who is trying to decide what
course TO take up in college.
That there are positions in abund-
ance for graduates in agriculture is
shown by the situation at the Ore
gon Agricultural college. A few
months age the horticultural depart
ment alone had positions for many
more students than were available.
Among the positions open were such
Jobs as foremen of large orcharding
companies, packing concerns. positi-
ons with the Canadian government,
with the L. 5. department of agri-
culture and with various development
companies of the northwest.

LEXICONICS.

Professor Garner claims that he is
enlarginE the monkey lexicon. aided
by the little simAn Susie. his pet pu-
Pill and a distant cousin of the human
race.
Here are a few Of Susie's words
with their definitions:
Ohui-want.
Khi-hou-stampede.
Khi-!u-hOu-retreat.
Rater odd. aren't they? And yet
can they be considered any more pc
culiar than such human expressions
as these:
Gee! Huh Hike, piffle, yep?"
And really when you scan 'em over
and compare 'em it looks as if we had
nothing on the monkey.-Cleveland

CLOSE CONTROL NEEDED.

Since UmadrIa county has voted
wet it matters but little locally wheth-
er the home rule amendment is up
held or not. The people Of this coun-
ty have voted to license saloons. 1t
is reasonable TO believe they Will NOT
resort again to prohibition If under
a licensed saloon system the liquor
problem is handled to their satistac-
uon.
In Pendleton the problem that con-
fronts the city administration Is how
TO regulate the saloon business so as
TO insure decency and prevent a re-
currence Of prohibition.
In handling this proposition the
mayor apd councilmen should be
fearless and firm. They should act
with an eye single to the welfare Of
the whole city. They will make a
fatal mistake if they take the advice
Of saloonmen or Of property owners
who expect to rent buildings for sa-
loon purposes. Those are the very men
who ran this city in the olden days
and by their greediness brought pro-
hibition upon this city.
saloonmen would naturally like a
regulative system that will promote
the use Of liquor. They would like
card and gambling rooms adoining
their bars. They would like screens
over their windows and they would
like to make their establishments
comfortable loafing places. Property
owners naturally want as many sa-
looms as possible in the city 50 that
they may gather in big rents.
But such a policy would be fatal
The number Of saloons should be lin
tied very rigidly. A few saloons will
meet the legitimate demand for IL
quor in this city. The saloons tha,
are allowed should be regulated with
view to meeting the legitimate de.
mand for liquor and nothing further
They should look to promoting TEN.
perance not drunkenness. a saloor
should be free from card tables anc
chairs. To allow saloons to b.
hanging out" places means 10 fos
ter debauchery. The barroom Is n:
place for the poor mans club" MOI
need men who want to talk bushes,
or play cards go to saloons. Their,
are other amusement places outsid
the saloons and other and better pla
ces for men to meet and discuss bus
iness affairs.
Stiff regulation Of the liquor traf
fic Is what Pendleton and all othe
towns and cities Of Oregon need
The oldtime dive must go or we wi
again have prohibition.

ELIMINATING THE UNFIT.

At the meeting Of the bar associa-
.i9n in Portland there has been much
discussion as 70 how to eliminate
shysters and scalawags from the legal
profession in this state. Naturally It
a difficult thing to handle because
absolute proof Of rascality is often
hard - obtain.
Nor is the legal profession the only
calling that has troubles upon this
score. The same problem confronts
almost every profession. In the field
.cf journalism there is a standard that
should be maintained just as in the
bar. The journalist too has a high
calling for he is a counsellor as we'll
a. newsgiver. Yet there are sheets
that try to pass as newspapers that
viii openly sell out during a political
campaign and allow themselves to be
used for the vilest Of purposes. Such
sheets are regarded by legitimate
journals in the same light as a
legal crook is looked upon by honor
able members Of the bar.
About the best safeguard against
disreputable members of any profess
sion lies in the fact that public opinion
insists upon a certain standard and
eliminates as unfit those who fall too
f4r below grade
