STUDENT LOAN FUND
Is WHOLLY EXHAUSTED
Hard Working Boys and Girls at o.
\. G. Must Leave Unless They Can
Borrow.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis, Ore, March 15.-The student
loan fund of $500, given to the Ore
gon Agricultural college at the op-
ening of the present college year by
Senator r. A. Booth of Eugene for
the temporary assistance of self-sup-
porting students, is exhausted. This
means that some Of the hardest work.
ing and best students in the institu-
ton, both young men and young wo-
men, will have to drop out, since,
with all their struggle to make their
own expenses, they must depend up
on an advance of IS to SIS to tide
them over until they are out and
earning, where they can pay it back
Since the existence of the fund
was announced a large number Of
petitions have come TO the trustees
which, upon careful examination,
proved to be entirely worthy. The
fund, however, could care for only
about half the applicants, and hence,
unless the fund is renewed from
some source shortly, number Of the
students who have won high grades
in their studies while working their
way through, will have to give up
their studies for the rest Of the aca-
demic year.
The student requests brought to
light some interesting facts as to .ne
courageous endeavor of some Of the
Oregon youth to gain special train
ing in their chosen lines. One young
man requested a loan Of s25 that his
sister and he may finish the years
work. By renting two small rooms
and doing their own housekeeping
they have been able to complete two
years of their course.
One young man who requested as
sistance made the highest grades OF
any student in the institution during
the first semester, in one Of the heav-
lest and most difficult courses. A

element in the market. The most
important factor, however. in the sup
port of values is the abundance of
money at cheap rates. The outlook
now is for easy money until the crop
begin with the next har-
vest. Some temporary hardening of
rates may be expected incidental to
the April settlements, but this will
probably be a less important matter
than usual. Even at the West,
where the financial strain has recent
ly been greatest. much Improvement
in the bank position is reported. De-
posts are rising, and interior bankers
appear confident of escaping any
serious consequences of recent exces-
sive land speculation. Money is also
very easy abroad, the comfortable
position Of the London market being
emphasized by a further reduction in
the bank rate. In fact the ease of
money Is WOTlu-Wlue, ana must bS

Edwin T. Conan, president of the
Exchange National bank, has become
head of the Spokane chamber of COM
merce, succeeding Charles NJ. Fas-
sett, resigned, who is vice mayor and
commissioner of public utilities un-
der the new plan of municipal gov

the nomination by David Munroe, an
orchardist Of White Bluff prairie, of
his six sons for membership. They
are: T. j., ]. E., George O., A. B.,

SANDING THE SHOCK.

Although there have been many
things of late to disturb the business
world still conditions seem very good.
In his last financial review Henry
Clews dwells upon the railroad rate
decision, the special session Of con-
gress and the Mexican troubles. They
had depressing effect. But in COM
menting upon their effects the finan-
cial critic said
TT must be admitted that the mar
ket has withstood such adverse in
fluence with surprising firmness.
These successive shocks affected val
ues but slightly, and any declines that
occurred were quickly succeeded by
almost equal recover.cs. While there
has been a lack OF activity. there has
on the other hand been a steadily
growing undertone Of confidence, ex-
planned partly by the fact that weak
spots have been thoroughly eliminated
and that there Is no weak speculative

IT WOULD HELP OUT.

March 81 and April l have been
set as official cleanup days for this
year. They should have special sig
nificance this time and should be OBJ
served in every portion of the city.
Pendleton is just stirring itself again
after having been a bit slothful for
two or three years. 1t is going to be
"a swift and bustling little city and
should look the part. Out with the
garbage piles and the old stuff on
vacant lots.
In connection with this very sub
ject the honorable mayor and mem
bers of the city council might do much
good by establishing a regular gar
bage carting system for the town and
by ordaining that the city dump pile

Gus than that now in use.

CULTURE AND BATHTUBS.

Boston's time honored claim to be-
ing the center of culture for the
United States, If not for the entire
universe, has been challenged. And
shades of Israel Putnam, upon such
grounds. 1t has been discovered that
in Maiden, a suburb of Boston, there
are no porcelain bathtubs. The dis
covery was made, so it is said, when
a lady from Maiden while calling up
on a friend in Boston asked for the
use of the bath room, explaining the
absence of such in her own commun-
ity.
This looks bad for Boston. That
other aristocratic sections of the east
have shortcomings of this character
has been known for some time. Last
summer a former Pendletonian visi-
ted at his old home in Virginia and
while there startled the natives by
bringing down from New York the
first modern bathtub ever seen in the
county But then Virginia is south
ern state and has plenty of darkies
to lug around portable tubs for the
convenience of the planters and their
families. In Massachusetts, the con-
ditions are different and it will take
the Bostonians some little time to
fully explain the deficiency that is
charged to one of their suburbs
Cleanliness is next to godliness and
surely no town that lacks bathtuh
facilities can aspire to remain the
source Of learning and refinement.
The Spokesman-Revi reasons
that the center of culture. like the
star of empire, is moving westward

made at this time the result would
show the center Of culture to be some
sound. They probably ,have hopes fol

WHAT MARY DONE.

Mary had the queerest taste!

To young apothecary,
Just common, ordinary

Fat and sassy, sassafrassy,
Sinking sonvergun.
When he smirked his smirks at
Mary
That's what Mary done.
Mary thought him such a dear t
We just thought it temporary.
Till at last it seemed quite clear
Her affection wouldn't vary.
Yes, she loved that smart and airy
Puffed-up, placid, boric acid,

Sneering, leering one.

That's what Mary done.

At his call epistolary.

CATARRH
4 SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
Of the mucous membranes; it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part OF
the system are involved. 1t is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because OF the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms OF Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, thsoat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, ETC., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and infamed from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un-
healthy matter. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. 1t attacks

no longer clogged, and every un-
easant symptom of the disease dis
pears S. S. S. is the greatest Of all
ood purifiers, and for this reason is

Excepted Cases Were When
Law Was Reasonable.

These cases of restraint of trade that
the court excepted from the operation
of the statute were instances which, al
common law, would have been called
reasonable. In the Standard Oil and
Tobacco cases, therefore, the cour
merely adopted the tests of the com
mon law. and in defining exceptions 10
the literal application of the statute,
only substituted for the test of being
incidental or indirect, that of being rea
sonable, and this. without varying in
the slightest the actual scope and ef-
feet of the statute. In other words, all
the cases under the statute which haH,
now been decided would have been de
cided the same way if the court had
originally accepted in its construction
the rule at common law.
1t has been said that the court, by
introducing into the construction of the
statute ommon law distinctions, has
e~masculated IT.. This is obviously I'M
true. BY its judgment every contract
and combination in restraint of inter
state trade made with the purpose %
necessary effect of controlling prices BY
sitting competition, or of establishinS
in whole or in part a monopoly of such
trade, is condemned by the statute. The
most extreme critics cannot instance a
cas- that ought to be condemned under
the statute which is not brought within
its terms as thus construed.

Reasonable Restraint of
Trade Defined by Common Law.

The suggestion is also made that the
Supreme Court by its decision in the
last two cases has committed to the
court the underlined and unlimited dis
erection to determine whether a case
of restraint of trade is within the
terms of the statute, This is wholly
untrue. A reasonable restraint of trade
at common law is well understood and
is clearly defined. II does not rest
in the discretion of the court. 1t must
be limited to accomplish the purpose
of a lawful main contract to which. in
order that il shall be enforceable at
all, it must be incidental. If it exceed
the needs of hat contract. it Is void.
The test of reasonableness was never
applied by the court at omnaon law
to contracts or combinations or con-
spiracies in restraint of trade whose
purpose Was or whose necessary effect
would he to stife competition, to con-
troll prices, or establish ~monopolies,
The courts eve assumed power to
say that such contracts or combina-
tons or conspiracies might be lawful
il the parties to them We're only nioder-
ale in the use of the power thus secured
and did not exact from the public too
great and exorbitant prices. 1t is r
that many theorists and others en-
gagged in business violating the statute,
have hoped that some such line could
be drawn BY courts, but no court of
authority has ever attempted it. Ger
tainly there is nothing in The decisions
of the latest two cases from which
such a dangerous theory of judicial
discretion in enforcing this statute can
derive the slightest sanction.
We have beer twenty-one years MAX
ing this statute effective for the pur-
poses foc which it was enacted. The
knight case VAS d-iscouraging and
seemed to remit to the States the whole
available power to attack and suppress
the evils of the trusts, Slowly, how
ever, the error of that Judgment WAS
corrected, and only in the last three or
four years has the heavy ham of the
law beer laid upon the great illegal
combinations that have exercised such
an absolute dominion over many of our
industries. Criminal prosecutions have
been brought and a number arc pend
