ECO GAMBLERS HARD mr..

TN response to an avalanche of coldstorage eggs loosened
from the Chicago market the wholesale price has gone
> down from twenty-five cents to nineteen cents a dozen
wholesale, and the spectators are heavy losers. These eggs
could have found ready sale at the prices of the strictly fresh"
article, but they were locked up to be withheld from the con-
SINNER until he should be ready to pay just as much for de-
Perforated goods. The bankruptcy of the egg monopolists would
be a delight to the public.

SIMPLICITY AT THE INAUGURATION.

IF there is to be Jefersonan simplicity in. the Inauguration
ceremonies at Washington there will be no large military
= display and the State Legislature will not be asked to
make an appropriation to send the State guard to Washington.
IL the ideals of Jefferson are to prevail at Washington under
a Democratic administration there will be an absence of the
usual pomp and display that to many Democratic minds are too
suggestive of the methods of European monarchism to impress
and awe the vulgar mind with the symbols of power. A Spartan
simplicity for a nation in it's government is more impressive to
other nations than all the pomp of ceremonial and military
display.

TYPHOID BAN1sHHD FROM THE NAVY.

NANITARY science has eliminated typhoid fever from the
United States navy. There has not been a case of the
disease among the $4,000 men of that service since the
new treatment was adopted, eleven months ago. This shows
that typhoid is preventable. What has been done in the navy
ran be done in the general community. And yet this scourge
IL allowed to kill one person out of every four thousand an
nualy in our fifty large cities and to reduce the economic
efficiency of the nation by a hundred million dollars a year.

BEATS OFF BURGLAR
WITH PIECE OF WOOD

La Grande, Ore, Dee. 1S-Aroused
from heavy sleep to stare a bold bur-
glar in the face and to automatically
and effectively dodge shoulder
punch aimed at his proboscis by said
burglar was the unpleasant sensation
realized by Fred Pattison near the
midnight hour. heavy piece OF cord
beat off the robber and saved his own
skin without an abrasion.
Fred Pattison lives with his broth
er Herbert Pattison, 1905 Adams and
sleeps on a sleeping porch. During
the night sometime he was awakened
to stare rough appearing burglar
in the face-the fellow had worked
his way to the porch without discov-
cry by the sleeper and was attempt
ing to break in when Pattison awoke.
sleepy inquiry as to what was want
ed brought the thief pell nell at the
young man but he was sufficiently
awake to dodge the blow. He tum-
bled out of bed and seized CON
Iveniently near piece of cordwood and
with this effected a retreat of the
invader and as the fellow scampered
off the porch struck him over the
shoulders. The thief, suffering from
the stinging blow hied himself to a
place of safety and the bulldog" of
the Pattison sleeping porch logged
back to happy dreamland-in the due
course of time.

Stone, of Athena, Ore, appointed by
Governor West as a delegate to a con-

liquor shipments into dry territory,
being unable to make the trip, has
written a letter setting forth his views
addressed to Senator Chamberlain.
The letter says:
1.-The governor of our state has seen
fit to appoint me one of a delegation
TO attend a conference to be held in
washington city, December 16, II and
IS, the object of which is to aid in
an effort to secure the passage of
what is known as the Kenyon Shep-
ard bill, or an amendment to the in
terstate commerce law, so as to re-
strict the shipment of liquor into dry
territory

rolled with the anti-Saloon league

both). nor in a position to visit the
capital city at this time, l am most
decidedly in favor of some measure
that will meet the demands of the
people.
Senator, ! believe you will agree
with me when ! say that the inter-
state commerce law as it affects our
state, as now construed by the courts,

and our lawmakers.
AT the behest and intrigue of the
liquor interests. our state in 1910 ad-
opted what was known as the home
rule law, giving cities and towns the
exclusive right to regulate and control
the liquor business. Should not a city

Land in Grass.

Cutting hay off land for a series
of years and then expecting to find II
enriched is likely to lead to disap
pointment. Something will have beer
accomplished in getting rid of insect
pests by the change of crop and the
texture of the soil will have been
improved by the organic matter from
the roots and what nitrogen the Glow
ers have gathered, but where the clov-
ers have early run out even this will
not be great advantage. Grass lands
need feeding, either with barnyard
manure where hay is sold off or when
pastured. extra feed should be used
for the stock If the full benefit of ly-
ing on grass is to be secured.

ORIGINAL OWNERSHIP.

1t is not probable that private
ownership antedated common own
ership. 1t is almost settled that
joint ownership, and not separate
ownership, is the really archaic insti-
tuition. There is the strongest rea-
son for believing that property once
belonged not to individuals, or even
to isolated families, but to larger So
cieties on the patriarchal model. In
fact, common ownership, or what is
known as the ''patriachal SYSTEM" is
proved to have been the rule in all
countries prior to the later historic
period.
