circulation in the west, for arrange
ments are already made for the dis
tribution of 100000 in Oregon,
Washington, Idaho and Montana.
The project has the endorsement OF
the state authorities. who are CO.
operating in its distribution before
the spring school term closes. On
one cover the leaflet has a colored
picture of settlers home being de-
stroyed by flames, on the other a for

and answers concerning need and
methods of saving life and property
from forest fire destruction.

measure Of his citizenship.

measure Of his citizenship.
The Pullman Chamber of Com
merce was formed by men who
hadcome to a practical realization
of the above principle. All that
has been done toward building up
the town along right lines has
been done by men who knew how
to work. The list Of things ac-
complished that was published
two weeks ago may be looked up
on as evidence that the organiZa-
ton is living up to its idea. 1t s
business has been and is, not to
talk but to work, and it asks the
cooperation and support of citi-
zens who believe there are things
to be done and who are willing to
back up the men who will do
them.
Let it be recognized that there
has. been talking enough. The
time calls for action. 1t makes
little difference whether the talk
Is that of the cheap Sensationalist
who wants to draw attention to
himself, or that of the pessimist
who sees the world as a bowling
wilderness and is determined to
go through it bowling, or that of
the loafer and hanger-on in pub
lie places who gives advice gratis
for the public benefit. Action is
better. Such talking builds up
nothing.
Let it also be understood that
just as it is not the business of any
good citizen, so it is not the bust
ness of the Pullman Chamber of
Commerce to air dirty linen in
public places, nor to talk about
what should be done, but rather it
is to do those things that we all
know should be done and to do
them for Pullman. A statement
was made last week of a few of
the things the Chamber Of Com
merce has in mind to undertake.
Other ideas may suggest themsel-
YES to individual citizens, inn
provements to be made, reforms
to be effected, public tasks for
the public betterment. Bring
them to the organization. What
should be done, can be done. Get
in yourself and help do things
and you will soon find yourself
in process of becoming a good,
live, healthy, desirable citizen.

STATE COLLEGE
WINS FROM IDAHO

Striving hopefully toward a VIC
torious finish, the ultimate result
only a matter of conjecture for four
teen hard fought events, Idaho and
the State College battled against
each other the track at Moscow last
Saturday, the State College finally
winning with Powell and LaFollette
placing first and second in the high
hurdles, Up to this event, which
preceded the relay, it looked very
much like the last event would cause
one team or the other to play second
fiddle, the meet being a toss up until
this race was run. The two places
in the high sticks placed the score Is
to 62 in favor of the State College,
and with the relay, brought w. S.
C.'s score to rs.
Idaho took an early lead, and af-
ter the first six events, stoon nine
points ahead of the collegians. With
the running off of three more events,
Idaho was oyertaken in eight points
the score then being 4 to 40, Idaho
In the next three events, Idaho made
up five more points, the score stand
ing at the end of the twelfth event
Idaho 81, w. S. G. 81.
Then came those last four memoir
able events, w. S. C. taking s points
in the Emile, Williams and Welsch
winning first and second, Monroe and
Powell winning first and third in the
broad jump, and Powell and LaFol-
lette winning first and second in the
high hurdles. Then, and not till
then, did that German Gurgle" and
that "Sauerkraut' Smile" creep out
from and upon the visage of Coach
Osthon transformed into the most
lovable of men. With the relay
coming up, Osty petted and caressed
his four sprinters, who by the way,
ran race that would take first place
from any team in the Northwest con-
ference, and Lowery, Graves, Ritter,
and Cooke, deserve all the caresses
bestowed upon them by the genial
coach.
The real prize races were the 100,
the 220, and the 440 Cooke, in the
100, ran Montgomery of Idaho a
dead heat, but the Idaho judges
could not see Monty tied in that
race, and Cooke had to take second
place. In the 22O, Cooke fairly ran
away from Montgomery, beating him
at least 5 feet at the tape This is
Monty's race, too. Many there are
who say that Montgomery stole in
the 100, but Edmunson failed to call
the runners back. With Cooke get
ting away with Monty, there is no
doubt in the minds of State College
hackers who saw the two men run
ming, that Cooke is the better man in
both races.
The first two laps of the relay
were almost heart breaking, Lowery
running the first against Hoobler, CIV
Ing Graves short lead in the second

The Payne-Aldrich tariff act re-

MISUNDERSTANDING
Dr. F'Iuna Addresses Large Audience
at the Grand.

Francis J FIuna of California delivered
a Christian Science lecture to a large
audience at the Grand opera house Sun
day afternoon. In the course of his lee
ture he said:
Christian Science is not the mere su-
perficial idea of not speaking evil or not
talking sickness, but that sickness and
evil are not the facts of being; they
therefore are not only Improbable topics
of conversation, but are not true, and If
spoken of at all, they must be exposed as
errors and not facts of being.
Christian Science teaches there is no
reality in sin; that God made all that
made and all He made was good
that God did not make sin. therefore sin,
sickness. pain, and death. evil, error, and
discord of all kinds do not belong to God
nor to His creation. and are no more a
errors and misunderst standings of mathe-
mates are a part of the science of num-
bers.
Christian Science teaches all is Mind.
there is no matter And the Scriptures
declare Heaven and earth shall pass
away, but my words shall not pass
away What does this teach but that
all matter and materiality shall pass
away. but the divine Mind and His idea
shall remain forver.
Christian Science teaches that all is
good; not. however, that sin and evil are
good, but that all that is, is good, and
Sickness sin, and death, matter and
mortality, are not of God, the only good.
and therefore are not good; hence are
not at all. Christian Science teaches
what the Master taught. that There is
none good but one, that is. Cod

PORTO RICO DOES WELL
Report of the Governor Shows Pros
perity on the Islands.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Porto Rico S
progress during the past year has been
little short of phenomenal, as shown
in the annual report which Governor
George r. Cotton has submitted TO
the secretary of war In political,
comm ercial and educational lines he
sees cause for rejoicing.
The foreign trade of the island he
reports, was Is per cent greater than
in the fiscal year, 1910, and four times
as much as in 1901, the removal of the
tariff barriers in that year between
the United States and Porto Rico hav-
ing been the start, he says, of the in
dustrial activity of the territory. He
calls particular attention to the i'm
portance of Porto Rico as a purchaser
of American goods
Increases in the production of
sugar, cigars and fruit are noted, as
also the increase in the value of cof-
fee. although it's quantity was less
than in some previous years The net
revenue receipts were 10 per cent
larger than in 1910, and the cash bal
ance in the treasury was 100000
larger than a year previously. Activity
in road construction and irrigation
work is reported, also 20 per cent
increase in the school enrolment.
The enactment of laws beneficial to
the business interests of the country
and a general sanitary law are men
toned by the governor, who adds
that there is a .'perceptible increase
of public opinion in support of eff
cient administration and officials and
a ready. response from those in Office

TWO SUE FOR DIVORCE.
Wives Charge That Husbands Have
Been RemiSS.

Two actions for divorce have been
fled in the district court by wives who
charge their hus ba ds with mistreat-
ment and nonsuI port.
Mabel c. Pattison alleges that her
husband failed to provide tor herself
and children and that she was COM
PEELED to assist her mother in the man
agement of a boarding house that she
might earn a living. The wife wants
the custody of a minor child, a divorce
and $1,000 aIimony.
Mary Fields brought suit against
Charles Fields. because he falsely
charged her with intimacy with other
men and refused to provide her with
groceries, clothing or a home in which
10 live. She asks custody of one of the
two children and says she is willing
that her husband may keep one child.

THEN BECAME DEFIANT
Told Assistant Attorney General
Brewster to Go to
Burst Into Tears and Then He
Went to Sleep.

Governor Stubs made a peck of
trouble today for Assistant Attorney
General Brewster when he started in
himself as a special agent to enforce
the rohibitory law in Topeka. AS
the governor came up the street this
morning he was accosted by a man
he did not know The man said:
Governor, do you think it is mans
duty to inform the officials about the
existence of joints in this town ?"
The governor replied that he GER
, tainly did.
Then the man declared that he
had been in every joint from Tenth
avenue to the river today
The governor urged him to APP
pear before the attorney general and
give evidence. The man promised he
would call at the governors office in
an hour. The hour passed away and
the man did not come. Then the
governor ordered the attorney gen
erals office to requisition him The
man with information in his system
was requisitioned and hailed before
Brewsters troubles began. The man
was beastly drunk. He cursed the
attorney general and all his works.
Then he repented of his sins and cried
on the attorney generals desk Then
he went to sleep. Brewster APP
pealed to the governor TO further ad-
vice how to proceed in this rather
unusual case. The governor wanted
tn eman kept in the attorney generals
office until he got sober and then
have him testify.
who will clean up my ofice?'' ask
ed Brewster
The governor did not know nor did
he act as if he cared very much
a glance at the notes taken during
the inquisition of the governors Wit
ness revealed this startling piece OF
testimony:
Question: What joints did you
enter today and where are they 10
cated?"
Answer: This is Brewster, amt it
Well, Mr.. Brewster, go to -
Then Brewster went over to the
governors office for further instruc-
lions. The witness, who gave his name
as Mr.. McCabe of Topeka, is asleep in
Brewster's office. He had bottle OF
whisky on his person and another in
side his person. He ought to make
good witness when he gets sober.
