Schwab and other high authorities

Other signs of slackening trade
are coming into evidence. The rail
roads report an increase in the
number of idle cars, whereas not so
long ago the scarcity was acute.
The let-up in demand has been
slightly more than seasonable. and
although railroad presidents con
tinue to talk cheerfully regarding
the outlook, they feel at heart that
traffic will not be abnormally heavy

relaxing of pressure, however, will
not be an unmiXed evil. for it is

think your daughter is going to
marry, you can do nothing more
efficacious toward helping her make

We don't like to face facts about

the truth that the woman who mar

woman who marries for a home,

right to draw her skirts away from
the woman of the street. Morally,
they are in the same class: and you

The following editorial from
Popular Mechanics is of interest
to magazine readers in the west
ern states:
1T is greatly to be hoped the
new postmaster-general will in
the near future reverse the action
of Mr.. Hitchcock, who was re-
sponsible for sending large guam
titles of mail by freight. For
many years the policy of the
postofice department was to ex-
pedite and improve the trans
mission and delivery of mail. It
remained for Mr.. Hitchcock, in
the exercise of the wide personal
power vested in the postmaster
general, to take the first decided
step backward.
His scheme. which he excused
on claim of economy. was to
send some of the second-class
mail by freight trains part of the
distance and then transfer it to a
mail train for the remainder of
the trip. For instance, second
class mail originating in Chicago,
and addressed to subscribers in
the southeastern states, was taken
by freight to Cincinnati. Later
the haul by freight train was ex-
tended to Atlanta before getting
mail-train service. The result
was what might have been pre-
dicted and publishers have been
busy ever since trying to explain
to disguised readers why their
magazines failed to come. A
single recent example in our own
case was sixteen mail sacks of
Ropular Mechanics magazines
for the southeastern states which
were lost at some little flag station
and did not turn up for more
than two weeks.
Another feature not approved
by lovers of fair play was the
autocratic manner with which
the postmaster-general assumed
to himself the province of both
court and jury and designated
which publications should 60 by
freight and which should still en-
joy the former fast-mail train
service. It is certainly no more
than plain justice that all publi-
cations entered under exactly the
same conditions and requirements
as mail matter of the second class,
and all paying exactly the same
rate of postage to the govern
ment, should each receive the
same service. To grant some the
favor of fast service and consign
others to the handicap of freight
trains, and that at the caprice of
one cabinet officer, is at least un-
American; especially as the post-
master-general is his own court
of last resort on his own rulings,
and the publisher has absolutely
no appeal.
1T is conceivable that such a
condition might exist in Russia,
but, of all places, not in the
United States. The hope is again
expressed that the new head Of
that greatest business department
of the government will in his own

passage of a reduction tariff bill

it seems that the elimination has

The annual session of the
Washington State Grange will
be held in Colville next week.
It will be an event in the history
of Colville and Stevens county.
This county has the largest
grange membership of any county
IN the state. showing that the
grange is active here, and that
effective organization work has
been done in a good field.
In the last few years the
grange has been an important
factor in the country life of
Stevens county. 1t has formed
the basis for a closer feeling of
friendship among the producers,
and is gradually bringing about
a spirit of cooperation of efforts.
Stevens county welcomes the
Washington State Grange-its
officers and it's members. We
have seen the work accomplished
by the grange, and not only want
to congratulate, but to assist.
B. M. Hervey, master of the
Stevens county Pomona grange,
calls the attention of the
grangers Of this county to the
fact that the entertainment of
the state grange is not a Colville
matter, but a county affair, and
desires each granger Of the
county to assist in the welcome
and entertainment Of the visitors.
The banquet Tuesday night, on
the courthouse yard, is to be
provided by the grangers of the
county, who are expected tobring
the provisions for the big event.
Governor Ernest Lister will be
in Stevens county next week.
He will speak twice in Colville
during the state grange meeting,
and will have a few hours time
to meet the people of this COM
munity.
The Governor comes not as a
partisan nor as a politician. In
fact, he has made no effort since
taking Office to "play politics" or
to charge up state mileage in
order to build up a political ma
chine" He was elected by voters
from all parties, and he has been
devoting his efforts to giving
this state a businesslike admins
tration at a reduction in former
cost.
He plans to visit every section
of the state, and to learn the con-
ditions. In making these visits,
he goes not as a partisan, but as
the governor of the entire state.
And he is being welcomed as
such.
