The railroads fought back in the
same blind, angry, sullen and
too often INSCRIPTIONS way
Each side was inspired by mo
tives of selfshness and hatred Of
the other But based even ON
such unworthy motives, the ar
tifcers of the system Of railroad
regulation builded wiser than they
knew Not only has the public
protited because of the abolition
of harmful discrimination, the
establishing of stable and fair
rates, but the railroads them
selves. because of the legal pre-
vention of the old cut.throat
methods, the chicanery and pill
lage Of the big shippers, have
seen business grow from a pre-
carious, wobbly condition of re-

ed from $4,000 per mile to $40,
900; surplus has increased from
S194, 900, 900 to $800OO0,OOO, and
since the public knows it is not
being robbed, and the railroad
that it is not being blackmailed,
a better feeling between them
exists, a feeling of mutual conf
dence and common interest,
which is worth far more than
any estimate in dollars and cents
can show. A writer in the
American Magazine for Septem-
Der epitOmizes the situation as

"Regulation has conferred
many benefits on the public.

That was the intention. 1t has
also saved the railroads from
themselves The restrictions
that it imposes on them are that
they shall not cut one anOther's
throats; they shall not bite off
their own noses; they shall not
be governed either by fear of
the big shipper or favor to the
big shipper; they shall not be
food for parasites nor victims of
blackmail; they shall not be rob.

The fight begun one or two de
cades ago, for railroad regulation
lin which the writer took jealous
part was often inspired by mere
malignant antagonism or lgnor-
ant laundering. The intention
of the fight, however, on the
part of even the fairest and most
intelligent of the champions of
regulation, was to punish and
restrain the corporations from
doing injury and injustice to the

Agriculture is using more fer

it more intelligently. In 1900
Georgia's corn crop averaged

In 1909 the record advanced to
twelve and a half bushels; in
1910 to fourteen and a half bush,

In the Nashville Democrat of
Tuesday, a correspondent boasts
of his undying devotion to Dem

those who supported Hooper as
republicans and party renegades.
After emitting an ululant pro
test against allowing any former
Hooper man to have any voice or
vote in Democratic counsels, the
poor old ignorant partizan adds
uaively, "My maiden ballot was
for the Hon Emerson Ethridge. "
He is a fair sample of that ele-

ROOM RESERVED FOR
SCHOOL FAIR EXHIBITS

Secretary r. E. Scott, of the Com
mercial club, has received a letter
from the State Fair hoard asking that
if possible, any or all of the entries in
the school children's industrial fair
which is to be held in Hood River Sap
tember IA, be sent to the state fair for
exhibition. Ii was discovered, how
ever, that the date of the Hood River
fair had been set after that of the
state fair which will make such a
movement impossible.
Superintendent thompson says that
1t has been very hard to find out during
the summer vacation how many of the
pupils are expecting to make entries,
and has asked the News or Glacier to
publish a notice asking all those who
are going to make entries to call up
the Commercial club and leave their
names and entries with Secretary
Scott SO that saps ,dea can be formed
of what will belecessary in the way of
room to accomnOdate them.
There are q items in the list of
entries and three prizes under each
item. A list of entries and prizes
hangs on thebulletin board of the Com
mercia club. This movement is worthy
of the greatest attention on the part of
all children attending the schools, and
it is hoped that there is as much inter-
est being shown now as there was
when the lists were first distributed
before school closed. Nothing teaches
as well as practical experience, and if
a child learns how to do something
we'll enough to win prize during the
school age, the experience Is bound to
stand him wellin hand on not only that
but more difficult problems later. The
Commercial club number is Ill.

"LARKSPUR" FIGURES
IN SUNSET STORY

In an article in the August number
OF Sunset, The Paeihe Montnly'
Randall k. Howard. who has written a
number Of stories dealing with nortn-
western scenery and the development
OF the region, tells Of women VINO nave
made successful rsnchers. among
those about whom be writes is MRS.
Marion MacRae well known 10 this
valley. where she has developed the
"Larkspur" tract. her country home,
and managed the Maxwelton orcharos'
owned by number of Portland capt.
talists. In the following paragraphs
Mr.. Randall reveals to US some Oh the
secrets of Mrs. MacRae s success
'Larkspur" in the hood River val.
ley, Oregon, is the country home OF
Mrs. Marion MscRae, who not only
manages the development OF her apple
orchard. but sells real estate IN the
valley. She came to Portland ~ 1871
with the timber claim and home
stead bee buzzing uproariously ID my
bonnet she says. Circumstances
turned her in the direction OF Hood
River fruit land, and she paid down
her entire Isnk robust twenty-five
dollars for an option on twenty acre
tract valued at $780, She went PACK
to Portland to earn the payments as
they came due, and to hire the tract
cleared and planned to apples trees;
All of her land ventures have proved
successful. Nothing is left to chance,
however. For example, IN order 10
study the soil formation OF Hood River
valley she went to the bottom OF l4O-
foot well on rope; and she has spent
weeks in tramping and driving over
the lands that she has sold. In order
to pay expenses until the trees come
into bearing the Larkspur orchard has
been made to produce several crops OF
strawberries between the rows.
In the rough, Larkspur cost $3.50;
now it is counted to be worth $2O, 00O-
and it is not for sale at that price.
Mrs. MacRae attributes her success to
careful attention to details, and be-
cause she so thoroughly believes IN
Hood River lands and fruits. Il talk
Hood River, dream Hood River, and
breathe Hood River" she says. "One
of the great charms of fruit growing is
that it keeps one in the country only
during the pleasant part Of the year
when one really wants to be there.
After the harvest and shipping season,
an orchardist is free to spend the win
ter where he pleases, or to engage in
other business"

What can she do? The mischief has

warnings and advice.
If she attempts to let her many
friends select her lover she will never

If she refuses to marry until she has
found man who receives the unquali-
fed approval of Mary and Susie and
Jane, she will be a spinster all her
days.
Not an unhappy lot, if one is help

having refused a good man because
Lizzie didn't like his habits. or Mary
didn't like his hair, or Louise called him
