"a j. Thompson, OF Pcndleton, Ore
gon, allied at this Office Saturday. In
conversation with the writer, he stated
that the irrigated land in the vicinity OF
lmalilla is selling direct from the irriga-
ton companies Tor from $4,000 to $50. %
per acre. OF course. this is absolutely
raw land with no improvements what
ever. The climate is similar to the eli
mate here and the soil does not test As
nigh in quality
Good improved farms can be purchas-
cd ON this tract for what is asked for
raw land in many other localities. and
this condition is due principally to the
fact that under the Carey act the state
regulates the selling price for the com
pany.

WAS WILLING TO REPEAT IT
Bright Youths Phrase of Gratitude
Paid for and Well Worthy
of Repetition.

He was a most intelligent youth,
and while going through the basement
at the works he noticed that some
thing was wrong with the machinery
He at once gave the alarm, and pre-
vented what might have been a\seri-
Gus accident. The circumstance was
reported to the head of the firm be-
fore whom the lad was summoned.
you have done me great service
my lad" said the genial chief, and in
future your wages will be increased
by two shililngs weekly"
Thank you, sir" said the bright lit
tie fellow. 81 will do my best to be
a good servant to you"
That's the right spirit, my lad he
remarked encouragingly. I'm all the
years that l have been in business no
one has ever thanked me in that way
| will make the increase three shill-
ings. Now, what do you say to that
We'll, sir replied the lad, smiling
ly, would you mind if l said it

ITCHING AND BURNING

Iberia, MOI was troubled with
scalp eczema for about five years and
tried everything I heard of, but all OF
no avail. The doctors told me would
have to have my head shaved. Being
a woman, l hated the idea of that. l
was told by friend that the Cuticura
Remedies would do me good. This
spring l purchased two boxes of Cuti-
cura Ointment and one cake Of CUT
cura Soap. After using one box Of
Cuticura Ointment I considered the
cure permanent, but continued to use
It to make sure and used about one
half the other box. Now I am entirely
well. ] also used the Cuticura Soap.
"The disease began on the back Of
my head, taking the form of ring
worm, only more severe, rising to a
thick, rough scale that would come off
when soaked with oil or warm water,
bringing a few hairs each time, but in
a few days would form again, larger
each time, and spreading until the en-
tire back of the head was covered with
the scale. This was accompanied by
a terrible itching and burning sensa-
ton. Now my head is completely well
and my hair growing nicely" (Signed)

These things, no less than baked
beans, are bad for us unless they are

II Knowing Human Nature Would Do

"Dr. John Haynes Holmes, who
preached a Bull Moose sermon to
President Taft the Sunday before cleo

White" said member Of DR.. Holmes
Church of the Messiah in New York.
Washington White was an aged
hod carrier. Laying down his paper
one evening he said to his wife over
his spectacles:
Martha, believe I'd make a
preacher. Listen, now, and I'll give
you sermon
THE old man then stood up to the
table and beloved out vigorous dis
course on the wickedness of the idola-
tiers of the Orient.
His wife said at the end
"A good enough sermon, Washing

sins of the foreigners, and never a
word about the sins Of the folks at
home here

the vicar asking for permission to con-

some of his first teeth, and exneri-

cApPER WILL NOT CONTEST.
Says He Will Not Ask Senate to Re-
count the Ballots.

Arthur Capper, Republican candidate
for governor in the last election, has
given out statement that he will not
bring a contest for the office OF gov
ernor, for which George Hodges de-
feated him by plurality of 20 votes
Mr.. Capper said:
Il believe | was elected governor
by a plurality of 1900 or more. Ac-
cordingly ! have felt in duty bound to
stand by and defend the choice of the
people. This | have done so long as
there was a fair possibility of rectify-
ing the hlunder made by many of the
election judges in rejecting the thou
sands of circle and cross-marked bal
lots cost in my favor, which the law
expressly states are legal and should
be counted.
In submitting this difficulty to the
supreme court of Kansas l appealed
for redress to the highest legal tribun-
al in the state. The court, by vote
of > to ., under technical construc-
ton of the law, was unable to find a
remedy other than a recount several
weeks in the future by the Democratic
senate, very doubtful expedient for
an opposition candidate looking for JUS
tice. merely, instead of a dispute.
Even if the blunder of the election
Judges could be righted in a political
body at that late hour, which is ex-
tremely doubtful, I can see no hope
that as governor I should be able to
carry out any definite programme OF
legislation with a hostile political ma
iority against me in both branches Of
the legislature.
"On the other hand, Mr.. Hodges,
working with a legislature Of his own
political faith. will have an ideal OPP
portunity to serve Kansas. feel it Is
now for the best interest Of the state
that Mr.. Hodges and the party he rep
resents be given that opportunity, and
that. so far as may be in their labor
for the public good, political differ
ences be forgotten Mr.. Hodges has my
hest wishes for the next two years,
and I shall be glad to assist in any
way I can in making his administra-
ton one that will be helpful to the
state"

Sanitary Regulations Are Good.

Officials of the Santa Fe road have
sent copies of their rules for the care
of water tanks on passenger coaches
to DIR. S. j. Crumbine, secretary of the
state board of health, following his
criticism of the present style of water
coolers used by the railroads. After
reading over the rules and hearing of
the efforts made to see they are prop
erly carried out, DR.. Crumbine compli-
mented the Santa Fe on the care ex-
ercised in the matter of handling
drinking water intended for the use OF
its passengers.

WOMEN WILL HAVE SHARE.
Hodges Says "a Will Welcome Them
as Officeseekers."

George H. Hodges, governorelect
of Kansas, is in Southern Texas, where
he will rest until December %. Mr..
Hodges known to favor woman sur
frage, was asked just before he left
for his views. His reply left no doubt
as to the chance the women will have
in obtaining an office by his appoint
ment.
THE men of Kansas" said Mr.
Hodges Eat the last election reversed
the opinion entertained by the franz
ers of the constitution of Kansas. who
denied the women the right of suf-
frage. IN almost every city we have
women doctors and lawyers and find
them occupying responsible positions
in the business world. In many coun-
ties in this state We have not only
women superintendent of public in
struction, but women county clerks,
registers of deeds, clerks of the dis
trict courts and the Democratic party
had a woman candidate for county at
torney in Harvey county this year. She
came very near to being elected. We
have women mayors, members Of the
council and school boards and in most
instances they have proven their eff
ficiency and also their equality in the
administration of the various offices
with the men.
"The question of equal suffrage was
non-partisan and one of the potent ar
guments in bringing about the hand
some majority it received, was the fact
that heretofore woman had paid taxes,
but had had no representation in the
administration of the affairs of state.
Since the adoption of equal suffrage
in other states we notice that women
have assumed the responsibility OF jur-
ors and it is my belief that they should
bear their share of the burden in the
administration of affairs of state. We
shall insist that women doctors be EN-
ployed in all the state hospitals We
feel that they are equally as well
qualified as men and we believe 1t
would be better for women to look af-
ter the unfortunate women OF tnose III
situations. We can see no justifiable
reason why one or two women should
not serve on the state text book com
mission and we also feel that it woul9
be to the advantage of our educational
institutions if we had one or two wom-
en- as members of the boarc o. regents
of each of our various educational in
stitutions. There are perhaps other
positions which women will be called
upon to fill"
When it was suggested to Governor
Hodges that the publication of his
views would probably bring scores OF
women to see him about positions on
his return from Texas, Christmas, he
said: '1'll be just as glad to see the
ladies as the men"

Direct Tax For Education.

Where Autos Are Barred.

Prince Edward island bars automo-
biles, not because the islanders can
not afford the machines, but because
of accidents caused by the reckless
ness of drivers who brought in the
first cars. They caused many run
Always, and a few had tragic endings
The legislature at once passed law
barring autos from the island. Some
of the leading cities have since en-
deavored to have the enactment re-
pealed, but the country influence has
always been strong enough to over
come all such efforts.
