WILL CUT DOWN COST
IN ELECTION EXPENSE
Secretary of State to Economize In
Printing of Information
Pamphlets.

SALEM, Nov. 21.-The secretary
of state is busy getting together in
formation on the general election
next year. He is seeking to improve
upon the methods of getting this in
formation before the public, not only
in the way of putting it in concise
form, but principally in the way of
economizing on the printing and dis
tribution.
State Printing Expert Harris has
been working on figures in the gem
eral cost of placing election inform
alton before the people, and the pam
phlets which will be printed this
year will doubtless be at much less
expense than at any time before.
1t Is planned to cut down expenses in
the mailing of the pamphlets, as
with the large number that are to be
sent out, the mailing item is no small
cost. From the figures already COM
piled, it is believed that $1S47.5O will
cover the cost this year. Last wear
the item of printing and mailing
came to more than $4,000.

RURAL HOME IN COOPER
HOLLOW CATCHES FIRE
Mrs. W. II. Mack Saves Residence
From Destruction by Strenuous
Work Alone.

The country residence of W. H.
Mack, in Cooper Hollow. five miles
from Dallas, was damaged by fire,
which originated in the kitchen last
Friday. The only person at home at
the time was Mrs. Mack. who was out
OF doors when her attention was at
tracted by flames bursting forth from
the kitchen. Hastily grabbing a
bucket, she worked so hard and so
successfully, that she succeeded in
saving the home, although the kiteb-
en- and dining room were in flames.
The walls Of both rooms were badly
sorehed, but she kept the fire from
to the other portions of
Ihe house. The damage was covered
by insurance.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1911-11-21

Dallas people are proud of the new
armory of the Oregon National
Guard, which is now nearing com
pletion in this city. It is one of the
most commodious and well-appointed
buildings of the kind in the entire
state, and will stand as a monument
to the enterprise and untiring work
of Captain Walter L. Tooze, Jry of
Dallas, largely through whose in
the building was Sc
cured.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1911-11-21

Dallas is in need of a suitable the
ater in which ereditable dramatic
productions may be given. BY this.
We mean such attractions as visit
other cities and are of national
note. This is one Of the best show
towns in the country, and even the
smaller companies that occasionally
appear here play to standing room
only. With a modern theater build
ing, fully equipped with stage and
scenery, there is no question but
what many Of the larger companies
would visit this city and find annie
returns for their trouble. II Is but
a short distance from Salem to Dal-
las and many Of the companies that
now stop in the capital city. on their
way from Portland to San Francisco
'ould easily run over to Dallas for a
performance with but little extra ex-
pense to them. This need is one Of
ne hive matters that might be con-
adered BY the Commercial club.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1911-11-21
BRINGS QUICK RESULTS.

That the communities which took
advantage of the opportunity to make
an exhibit of their products at the
recent land show at Omaha will reap
abundant profit therefrom, is shown
by the following, which appeared in
last weeks issue of the Benton
County Republican, printed at Cor
wallis:
There are in the Commercial club
rooms two or three photographs of
the Willamette Valley exhibit at the
Omaha Land show. From the photo
graphs one can see that it was a very
creditable exhibit and with the know
ledge that something like 10000 peo-
pie saw it in the two weeks it was on
exhibition, Benton county and the
other three counties of the William
cite valley that contributed to the
expense of the same will receive re-
turns worth several times the cost.
Already several requests for informa-
tion have come to the Corvallis Com
mercial club from people who, from
their inquiries, evidently saw this ex-
hibit at Omaha. 1t is only too bad |
that more counties of the valley could |
not have accepted the invitation to be
included in the list of counties ad-
7erhsed. A similar exhibit should be
'ent East next year, not only to the
Omaha Land show. but also to all
he other big Eastern Land shows.
Iet every county in the whole Viii
annette join in making the next ex-
nbit. The advertising is as good for
me county as for another, and it's /,
rood enough for all counties TO share.

ers there are alive, progressive and
untiring in their efforts to produce
the best apples in the world. The
thing for growers elsewhere to do is
to emulate their example and show
them that other communities in Ore
gon can produce as perfect fruit as
that which claims fabulous prices in
the New York market. This result
can never be attained by kicking be-

freight rates for the long haul
across the continent, or a loss of a
great volume of business.
The project for the steamer line
originated among Eastern capital
lists months ago but only recently
came to the surface. The idea was
to secure Federal support for the
line without which, it was declared,
the plan would be failure. Accord
ingly a movement was begun to in
terest Congress in the proposal and
for time it seemed that success was
bright. But right here was where
hostile interests appeared and it is
now averred that there is but little
prospect of success.
It has undoubtedly been the inten-
ton of the great transportation com
panies to control the shipping bust
ness through the Panama canal
through the medium of allied corpo-
rations, if not openly and, as the
prime movers of the new shipping
line clearly stated that their object
was to give the people an entirely in
corporation which could
only mean freedom from railway
control, opposing capital was not
slow to act.
Much has been expected from the
canal. Commercial interests on the
Pacific Coast are awaiting with much
interest its completion and following

THE HAND OF THE RAILROAD

railroad influence has already been
felt in a movement to establish An
independent line Of steamers from
coast to coast via the Panama canal
and the result win probably be that
the proposed line win be abandoned
This hostile move on the part Of the
great railway interests Of the coun-
tFy' coming as it does. two years or
more before the probable completion
OF the canal. shows that the gnaat
corporations do not propose to sub
mt willingly to a condition which
may possibly mean a lowering in
