DAKoTANS PRAISE
THE OREGON COUNTRY

The following clipping from the
Kingsbury County, South Dakota Inde.
pendent, has been handed to The Jour.
nal by Councilman Cummings:
"Mr. and Mrs. Sam Langdon arrived
Saturday from Oregon, where they
spent the past few months with their
son, George, at Harrisburg, and with old
friends at other points in Northwest
ern Oregon. George has farm of "A
acres, which he is gradually improving.
He has built a good house, barn ard
other outbuildings, and when it shall be
under cultivation will have a fine farm.
At Brooks, Oregon, which is in the same
valley, and 60 miles from Harrisburg,
they visited the L. S. Murdick, George
Shaw and the Aspinwall families, all
of whom are doing well. Mr., Murdi *
has secured a little more than 80 acres
of land, a part of which is right in tie
village of Brooks, and the balance about
half mile out. He has set to fruit a
considerable part of the home place,
and will set ten acres more to logan
berries this season. The AspinwaH
boys had 25 acres into loganberries tho
past season, and are making good mon,
ey. George Shaw has a farm near the
village, and is doing well 1t is easy to
make a living in that country, as the
soil and climate prodcue fruit and vege'
tables in abundance. But the accumu,
lation Of wealth is another matter. Only
a few seem to care for more than a good
comfortable living which is not hard
to secure, The more enterprising have
no difficulty in getting ahead financial
ly, as is evidenced by the success Of
our South Dakota acquaintances. Mr.
L. says the man who goes there with {
few hundred dollars, enough to purchase
a few acres and build home, and i
can be done at about one.third of tn,
cost here, can have good living TO
life. However, money does not perco

Langdon prefers the climate of SoutI
Dakota, for two reasons, one is that j

HELPING TO PAY THE BILL
Next to HefedIty Principal Cause OF
Insanity 10 Use Of Alcohol, Says
DR.. Ferris.

America Is not infreQuently accused
of worshiping the almighty dollar" to
the exclusion Of higher interests and
pursuits, and the accusation Is not en-
tirely unjustified But at times one is
forced to doubt whether the nation, as
a whole, really has clear conception
of the value Of that all-powerful coin.
1t is said on good authority that ap-
proximately $21, 900, 900 is paid by the
people of this nation every year for
che support of the insane, and rarely
do you hear any taxpayer or decent
citizens objecting to this enormous tax
for the care of these unfortunates. Yet
DR.. Albert Warren Ferris, well fitted
to speak with authority, says that
next to heredity the principal cause
Of insanity is the use of alcohol, not
necessarily in excess but most fire.
Quently in moderation"-an evil which
society not only tolerates but upon
which it sets the seal Of its approval

Geneva, Switzerland.-The down.

Mount Cariline, which threatened to
overwhelm the village of F1eurier a
couple OF weeks ago, has stopped. but
the people in the valley live in hourly
anxiety that the millions of tons OF
rock and earth above them will fall

The authorities have ordered the
inhabitants of the danger zone to
move temporarily. Watchers have
been posted on neighboring peaks
connected by improvised telephone
lines, with sentinels below, to signal
at any moment, day or night. the
recurrence of the movement.

WHO IS THE GUILTY PERS0N7
Crimes While Man Who Is Most
Responsible Goes Free.

No one knows better than the men
who preside over our courts of justice
that the criminal who should be on
trial before them is. In the majority
of cases, the legalized liquor traffic.
Every day." says Judge Pinckney of
the Chicago Juvenile court, there are
cases brought before me of young
boys who have broken the law while
under the influence OF liquor. They
stand the brunt of their actions, while
the one upon whom the greater re-
sponsibility should fall goes Free
And upon whom falls the RESPONSE
bility for the legalized liquor traffic?
or the drink-made criminal 1t may be
said,}as good Bishop Myriel in Hugo's
story said of Jean Vatican. This soul
is full of darkness and sin is commit
ted, but the guilty person is not the
man who commits the sin but he who
produces the darkness In dealinl,
with crime then the question to be
considered is who reduces the dark
ness?

Great Value Of Aluminium.

The conductivity of aluminium Is
about 60 per cent of that of annealed
copper. Accordingly, an aluminium
conductor must be considerably larger
in cross sectional area than a copper
conductor If the two are to carry the
same amount of current. Aluminium
wire is always coated with thin oxide
which serves as an insulator. This
insulation is enough, according to
some European manufacturers, to per
nit of using bare aluminium wire In
the coils of magnets. As the oxide
film Is of inappreciable thickness, a
coil OF the wire thus constructed
would be no bulkier, If as bulky. as
coil wound with insulated copper
wire. H. F. Stratton. writing on this
subject in the Electrical World, states
that he has been unable to secure suf-
ficient insulation when depending
upon the aluminium oxide film as it
naturally occurs in the commercial
product. In order to increase this OK
ide, some European manufacturers
wet the coil and then heat 1t.
