THE SELLS
FLOTO show
HERE TODAY
FORTY CLOWNS DO A SPECIAL
STUNT, AND THE WHOLE COUN.
TRY is HERE TO SEE THE BIG
AGGREGATION.

Whenever the circus is at hand the
press agent comes along and COM
mences to tell the editor of the pa
per all about the number of clowns
his attraction carries, and singular
10 relate, this has never varied APP
parently since the very first time that
a tented organization took the road.
Forty clowns, county EN-, 40,"
says this gentleman, and so runs the
burden of his song, but until that
Sells-Floto circus came along, no.
body ever really saw 40 clowns in
side of the big top"
Now comes at last the unfulfilled
promise of years. The really, truly
40 clowns are here, and the press
agent Of the Sells-FlOto circus
swears by the great horn spoon, and
by his reputation as the official al
mighty voice of the big consolidated
show, that the famous 40 will appear
at every performance, will come
right in through the grand entrance
and will parade around the hippo
drome track in order that the pa
irons Of the circus may count them.
This is such startling departure
as to cause special comment, and on
further investigation 1t is found that

IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY KID.
NEYS.
Salem Readers Should Learn to Keep
the Kidneys Well.

The kidneys have big work to do.
All the blood in the body is coursing
through the kidneys constantly to be
freed of poisonous matter. 1t is a
heavy enough task when the kidneys
are well, but a cold chill, fever or
some thoughtless exposure is likely
to irritate, inhame and congest the
kidneys and interrupt the purifying
work.
Then the aching begins, and is usu-
ally accompanied by some Irregular
tty of the urine-too frequent pas
sages, sediment or retention. Thou
sands testify to the wonderful merit
of Doan's Kidney Pills, a remedy for
the kidneys only, that has been used
in kidney troubles rs years. You will
make no mistake in following this
Salem citizens advice.
John Couger, S45 N. Seventeenth
street, Salem, Oregon, says; "Doan's
Kidney Pills have been used in my
family with great benefit. l also

SHOULD FILE
PETITIONS AT
EARLY DATE
SECRETARY OLCOTT POINTS OUT
THE NECESSITY OF HAVING
INITIATIVE AND OTHER PETI.
TIONS FILED AS SOON AS POS
SIBLE.

Fearing that those intending to tile
petitions to initiate laws at the COM
ing general election may delay filing
their petitions until within a few
days before the last date allowed by
law, and thereby burden his Office
with work so that he will not be
able to check over the names and give
those filing the petitions an oppor-
tunity to correct errors, should they
exist, and refile the petitions, Secre-
tary of State Olcott is urging them
to file the petitions at the earliest
possible date.
He is also calling attention to the
fact that the time for filing argu-
ments in behalf of laws to be initiat-
ed expires this year before the time
for filing the measures sought to be
initiated, and that should petitions be
filed, the last day or within less than
three days of it, the time for filing
arguments in favor Of the laws they
seek to initiate will have expired
The law fixes July 4, as the last date
OH which petitions asking for the
initiation of measures may be filed,
and the first Monday of the fourth
month before the election, July l, as
the last date upon which arguments
in favor of the measures may be
filed.
July % is fixed as the last day
date on which arguments opposing
the measures may be filed and Aug
ust is the last date which the sec
retary of state may cause them to be
printed in the pamphlet. September
IL is the last date on which he can
send copies of the pamphlets to the
voters.
Between 30 and 40 initiative meas
uIes are looming up, and should
those back of them defer filing them
until within a few days before the
last date, which is but a few days
over a month from now, the secre-
tary Of state would be virtually bur-
dned with so much work that he
would be unable to check up the
names before the time for filing the
petitions would have expired. Each
petition must have attached about
10000 names, and If he should be un-
able to check them up by then, and
the checking should disclose the pe-
tition was defective, 1t could not be
corrected and refiled for the time
would have expired A delay, there
fore, might result in the measure not
getting on the ballot
Up to the present but one initiative
measure has been filed, and that is
the equal suffrage amendment, and
no argument for or against 1t has
been filed. Neither have any argu-
ments for or against the six laws re-
ferred by the last legislature been
filed, nor the four laws passed by the
legislature and upon which the peo-
rle have invoked the referendum.
Last year the pamphlet contained
2O6 pages, and it is estimated that it
Will be even larger this year. 1t is
estimated that each page will cost $40
and that would bring the total cost
Of the pamphlet should it be the
same as that Of last year, up to $14,-
24O' 1t is estimated that the meas
ures already filed will take up about
80 pages of the pamphlet.

BOOSTING FOR BEETS

La Jara is boosting the sugar
industry. At meeting of the
Commercial club few nights ago
there were some seventy-five pre-
sent. A. L. Moss voiced the senti-
ment of all present. He is quoted
by the Chronicle as follows:
He considered the sugar beet in
dustry not only from the view
point of the money to be made
from the crop but also in its rela-
tions of other crops. He pointed
cut that it was no light undertake
ing to raise beets but one that re-
quired a great deal of labor and
thought. Mr.. Moss predicted that as
a result of this industry our lands
would be made to produce three
dollars where they are producing
one dollar now, for our soil needs
greater amount of cultivation
than we are able to give it when
we raise only the grain crops suit
ed to this climate. He absolutely
exploded the theory so often ad-
vanced by the knocker that the
raising of sugar beets will wear out
the soil and eventually make it
non-productive. He also called at
tention to the feeding possibilities
of the beet crop. Mr.. Moss is not
merely talker. He is backing his
statements and beliefs by getting
his ground in shape to put in $50
acres of beets this season, for he
claims that after he has grown
beets ON the land and as a result
of the cultivation the land received
he can practically double his yields
of grain.

LAND MONOPOLY

Here in the United States, where
more land than England and Scot
land contain has been given out
right to great corporations, and
where the government has per-
mitted millions and millions of
acres to be fraudulsntly appropri-
ated by land-thieves (some of
whom have been congressman and
Senators), even here, where the con-
ditions of land monopoly are rap
idly approaching the conditions
that prevail in Europe, individuals
high in public esteem turn their
backs upon all the obvious condi-
tions that alone cause the general
distress, and seriously assure us
that our recourse is to increased
production!
If, now, after fifty years of rapid
ly increasing production by thous-
ands OF labor-saving devices if
after multiplying again and again
our production, there is not enough,
then how much more must we in
crease production before the pro-
blem will be solved? If the power
of private monopoly and special
privilege has been sufficient to
advance prices to the consumer
thus far as fast as production has
increased, then how much more
must production increase before it
will pass beyond the power of pri-
vate monopoly and special priv
ilege, to keep up with it in the mat
ter of advancing prices?-Edward
Putnam.

hard to make the statement that
he can defeat Taft for the nominal
ton.
A. X. Vickery-I do not think
Roosevelt can defeat Taft for the
nomination.

ion will have little effect upon
Taft's candidacy for Taft is the
logical candidate.
r. j. Pitkin-Taft will be nomi-
mated and elected and that's all
there is to it.
Charles s. Thomas as-Roosevelt's
announcement should not be taken
seriously as neither Taft nor Roose-
welt will be eletced.

what difference it makes, for this

would be doubtful if Roosevelt ran.

dent Taft combined with the oppo-
sition to the third term idea would
make big difference in the re-
suits. 1 do not believe Roosevelt
can be elected.
Roosevelt says, "We're in the

Taft has the situation too we'll in
hand to lose out. He is pretty
sure of the delegations from all
