RAILROAD COMMISSION
CAN CIRCULATE" BOATS

That the State Railroad commits
sion has jurisdiction over boats
owned by the Oregon-Washington
Railroad company and operated on
streams in the state is the opinion of
Attorney General Crawford and he
has so advised the commission.
There existed some doubts in the
mind of the commission as to wheth-
er 1t had jurisdiction of boat lines,
but the attorney general is convinced
that 1t has and refers to a state law
which says that 1t shall have juris-
diction over "all common carriers en-
gagged in the transportation of pas
sengers and freight partly by rail
and partly by water.
Also Renders Another Opinion.
At the request of Secretary Olcott
the attorney general also rendered
an opinion as to whom shall approve
the bills of the Oregon Agriculture
College prior to them being audited
by the secretary of state, He says
in his opinion that they are to be ap-
proved by both the president of the
board of regents and also the presi-
dent of the institution.

THE CROSSED FINGERS
He swore that her kiss was the first
he had had;
But his fingers were crossed!
He'd kissed but his mother, when he
was lad
Yes, his fingers were crossed!
He vowed ha not only he'd ne'er
had taste
OF quivering lips, but that no other
waist
Had ever been clasped by his arms.
Then in haste
His fingers were crossed
The sparkler he gave her he'd pur-
chased that day,
But his fingers were crossed!
No previous maiden had worn it
nay, nay!
But his fingers were crossed!
And never, so long as his life should
endure,
Would eye, cheek, or lip Of another
maid lure
He knew it-past every doubt he
was sure
But his fingers were crossed!
She listened to all of the CUFF he
had said
While his fingers were crossed!
She laid on his bosom her wise little
head
While his fingers were crossed!
She answered so low that the famed
little bird"
Who peddles sweet secrets coult
scarcely have heard
AS she breathed, ooh, my love, I be
lieve every world"
But her fingers were crossed!

WILL
Be HIGHEST IN
MANY YEARS

That the price for both green and
dried prunes will be the greatest in
the history of the prune industry of
the valley is the prediction of G. l.,
Dick, manager of the Salem Fruit
Union.
Mr.. Dick made the statement just
after a conference with E. M. Nc
Kearney, the northwest representa-
tive of the Produce & Fruit associa-
ton of Medford, and whose mission
to the city was to secure a contract
for 200 cars of green prunes. Mr..
Dick says that the best price paid
for prunes was in 1909 when they
sold at 65 cents, and while unwilling
to say what the offer of Mr.. McKear-
ney was, he admitted that it was
considerable higher.
While the Union does not handle
great quantities of dried prunes and
he is not as conversant with condi-
tions with relation to them as the
green, he says that the price is high
er than it has been, for some time and
predicts that it will soar still higher

The Killers.


Ed. Journal:-There is a kind of
shark follows the schools of whales
in the Pacific ocean. When the
whales are at rest the killers rise
above them and weighing several
tons strike the whales and by keep
ing this up once in a while kill one,
and the dead or disabled whale
floats ashore and is sight for the
beach combers. We are afflicted with
too many killers at Salem. The
water commission organized of
state, county and city officials, of
members of the board of trade and
Business Mems league, all count for
nothing when one killer gets in his
work. We killed the Good Roads
legislation for the past 10 years in
the same way. We can always find
an excuse for killing things. We
have set our city and country back
10 years that the killers may have
their sport. Let us have the griller
in place of the killer.
