All Kinds of Fools.

III sing little snatch of song
About the fools that come along.
There's many fools of many minds
The harmless fool and other kinds.
Most pitiful and most forlorn
The fool in that condition born
The idiotic, staring fool,
With brains as dull as any mule.
Poor man! 'Tis not his fault alone;
In other lives the seed was sown;
We should not laugh at such man
No doubt he does the best he can.
You've seen the fool upon limb,
And saving 'twixt the tree and him;
Also the fool who thought it fun
To blow into a loaded gun.
One other fool that | despise
Believes that he is very wise;
l have no doubt that you recall
The business fool will scheme and
plan
A thousand ways to cheat man,
And cannot see that in the end
He'll die without a single friend.
Another n1aoo for fools t0 noiY
Is in the field of politics;
They hate the truth and love lie,
And some sell votes and others buy.
Bless goodness, l must not forget
The fools that form the social set;
OF all the fools that sin has nursed,
The fools of fashion are the worst.
They grab old Reason by the snout,
And jerk him down and throw him
out;
And high on Fashions rotten throne
old Mistress Folly reigns alone.
Religious fools of every kind
1t is not difficult to find
So many gods, so many creeds,
That do not satisfy our needs.
The list is long, and yet they say
New fools are sprouting every day;
The Fool-Killer biffs 'em one by one
And yet it's task is never done.

Pearson Plus Printers Ink.

Boys, there is only one of me. I
can only be in one place at a time.
But The Fool-Killer is a multiplied
edition of myself, and it can be pres
ent in many places at once. It can
go wherever the mails go, and it can
talk better than could talk if I were
there in person.
The printing press is great ma
chine. 1t enables a man to multiply
himself and send himself out over the
world. Thus he is able to form a.
much larger circle of acQuaintances
than he could otherwise do IT man
has something important to say and
field OF usefulness is necessarily lin
tied. But if he takes advantage of the
printing press and multiplies his
thoughts on paper he can send his
personality to the ends of the earth
and make friends with people who
will never see him in the flesh. I
want to inject my own individuality
into the columns of The Fool-Killer
to such an extent that my readers
everywhere can feel that old Pearson
himself is talking to them from the
printed page.
And to you, dear readers-you who
have already stuck your feet under
my literary table and feasted your
center of sensation on my intellectual
cookin'-to you l must look for help
in getting myself introduced among
strangers. Every one of my $4,000
readers knows hundreds of people that
l don't know. If you will introduce
me to all the folks you know, and the
other fellow will introduce me to all
the folks he knows, l will soon know
most everybody and most everybody
will know me. And when l get every
body acquainted with this multiplied
edition of myself-The FooI-klller-
Ithen | will be able to do some talking
worth listening to. Every new sub
scriber means a little more money,
and the more money I get the sassier
l can talk.

SambO'S Uncle Adam. .

st. Louis, Mo.-That the negro did
not get his color from Ham, and that
he is not even a member of the race
of. Adam, but a descendant Of one of
the four or five brothers Adam must
have had, is the belief of the Rev. DR..
Edwin H. Richards, for thirty years a
missionary in Ugandy, Africa.
THE negro never came from Ham.
You can't get black man from a
white one, either by time or condi-
tions, said DR.. Richards.
''The black man is co-Adamic with
Adam. Adam probably had about four
brothers the Bible does not mention,
and it was from one of these brothers
that the negro must have descended .
Associated Press Dispatch.
Great whoop to glory! That fixes it..
The muchly mooted mystery in re-
gard to Sambo's paternal, pappy has
been cleared up at last. The last
shadow of doubt has vanished, and the
worlds hunger for knowledge has
been satisfied once more. And again
| say glory And likewise, hallelujah!
A very scholarly book was recently
put on the market purporting to prove
that the negro is Jew Cor that the
Jew is a negro, which amounts to the
same). The proof seemed to be con-
elusive enough, viewed in the half
| light of our former conception OF
things But now that DR.. Richards
has thrown his great intellectual
searchlight back across the centuries
and discovered Adams brothers, we
must conclude that the scholarly his
torian, DR.. Abernethy, has been led
into an error.
The Jew is known to have descend
ed from Adam, and if Sambo descend
ed from Adams brother Sam, then
the two races cannot be more than
cousins.
DR.. Richards fails to mention the
names of Adams brothers, but l think
one of them must have been Sam
Perhaps the others were Tom and Bot
and Ben. Evidently the Bible made {
bad blunder in not making mention o.
Adams. brothers. Moses must have
known that the race-question woult
come up and that Booker Washing
ton would want to know all the facts
i DR.. Richards does not explain Tn
matter of color to my satisfaction, bu
[ am led to suppose that when tn

tom to get mud to make the boys ou
of, he must have got one spade-ful
of black mud and made Sam out o

Remember Old Dan.

Lexington, N. C.-The log cabin
which the Daniel Boone Memorial AS
sociation ordered built on the tradi-
tional site of the cabin of the Boone
has been completed. It is as nearly
as possible an exact reproduction of
the original.-News Item.
And that, beloved, is what comes of
being famous. Poor old Dan! In the
good old days when he used to roam
the forest with his flintlock Win
chester, picking elephants and other
small game from the topmost
branches, remember that he was not
very sociable. Dan wanted the whole
county to himself and when he got a.
phone message one day that another
family was moving into the county, he
shouldered his gun, called his dog, and
emigrated. No crowded cities for Dan.
He wanted elbow room.
Daniel Boone was born in Pennsyl--
vania, Virginia and North Carolina.
At present he has about fifty-seven
birth h-places in each of the three
states. AS time goes on the number
will be increased. / hope to see the
day when every town and village can
claim the birthplace of Boone. Moth
ing adds to the interest of communi-
ty like having several of Boone's
| birth-places located around it. II
there is any community which has not
yet acquired one of these birth-places,
and desires to do so, it should make
application at once.
Any neighborhood that does not feel
financially able to afford birthplace
of Boone can at least be the happy
possessor of Boone cabin. This is a
matter which should not be neglected
and I urge all public-spirited citizens
to give it their prompt attention.
Several hundred places in North
Carolina have already been identified
as the exact spot where Boone used tC
live At each of these places the origi-
nal Boone cabin should be rebuilt anG
filled with rare and sacred Boone
relics. If the local supply of Boone
relics is not sufficient to fill the cabin
do not take the matter to heart an6
grieve over it. / am informed tina
first-class Boone relics, ranging al
the way from a butcher-knife to {:
bears foot, can be bought in carload
lots from any of the mail-orde1
houses.
Our friends in Davidson count.
: have set worthy example, and I hop

owe to posterity to mark these hal
lowed spots while yet there are peopl

STATE FILES SUIT
TO RECOVER LAND

Through Attorney General A. M.
Crawford, the State Land Board has
filed suit, the papers Of which are
now in the hands of County Clerk W.
f.. Hanson, to recover from f. A.
HYDE and A. S. Baldwin, whose place
of residence is alleged at San Fran
cisco, two tracts of land in the Upper
Hood River Valley. The complaint
alleges that the defendant, HYDE, Sc
cured the land in 1893 through the
agency of Baldwin and other agents,
who filed application for the land,
which had been granted to the State
as school land, making affidavit that
they desired to purchase it for their
own benefit. The declaration states
that the applicants were paid the sum
of one to $40 for the part they took in
securing the legal title to the tracts.
The alleged fraudulent proceedings
were discovered when the defendants
attempted to convey the land to the
United States Government in order to
take the benefit of the law, which
allows parties making such convey
ances to choose other lands in federal
domains in other parts of the country.
The United States refused to acknow-
ledge the REIMBURSEMENT.
Those named as agents in the pro
ceedings are: E. P. Mccormack, Stan
ton f. Brady, c. Fl. Ford, t. F. Fore
and r. T. Judson

PRATT TELLS OF
STORAGE TESTS

B. B. Pratt, an expert from the po-
mological Offices of the United States
Department of Agriculture, who has
been conducting storage tests for the
past two years in Portland, testing
fruits from different Northwestern
districts, addressed the growers here
Tuesday afternoon, telling them that
orchardists In the past have paid too
much attention to the production of
fruit and too little to its conservation
after it was ready for the market. MIR.
Pratt stated that great deal of trou-
BILE of fruit rotting in storage could be
eliminated by careful handling and by
the wiping out of orchard diseases,
such as anthracnose. However, there
are other storge problems that have
not yet been fully worked out. Mr..
Pratt feels that his experiments have
gone far enough to allow him to draw
the conclusions that fruit picked at
proper maturity and placed in proper
storage will make far the best show
ing.
Mr.. Pratt, who will leave today for
California, where he has accepted an
assistant professorship in the Univer-
sity of California, was accompanied by
Experts Ramsay and A. W. Mckay.
The latter, who has just arrived from
| Florida, where he has been conducting
storage tests with the semi-tropical
fruits of that district, will assume
charge of the work Mr.. Pratt has been
conducting here.

RECALL WILL PROB
ABLY BLOW OVER

Action was taken at the meeting of
the West Side orchardists at their
mass meeting Saturday night, when a
number of East Side orchardists were
present, that will no doubt lead to a
cessation of the recall agitation and
cause the local political waters to
again become calm. At the instigation
of A. |. Mason, 1T was decided at the
meeting to put in the field in addition
to the recall petition petition calling
for the dismissal by the court OF Z. X.
Marshall, whose appointment to the
Office of road master is maintained to
have been the fly in the ointment of
the agitators.
From the sentiment that has been
expressed this petition will receive the
signatures of representative lot OF
the growers of the Valley, and the
court will be governed by the public
opinion and grant the prayer Of the
petitioners.
A committee to circulate the second
petition was appointed as follows }.

relied" that is, has two sets of saws,
a huge band on one side and a set of
circular saws on the other side of the
building. The timbers leave the saws
and are carried by conveyors, chains
and belts TO alert workmen further
down the aisles of the building. where
the planks are ripped into desired
lengths and widths and where the slab
wood is sorted out, all being dumped
into the aume and started on the nine
mile journey down into the valley.
Ii is the business Of one man at the
mill TO do nothing but file saws. Geo.
Grounds, the young man recently in
jured in the automobile accident at
Winans, is the tiler at Green Point.
The task takes an expert mechanic
and Mr.. Grounds is one of the best
paid Of the workmen at the mill.
At Ruthton, the final destination of
the lumber before shipment, where
are located planers and box factories,
Claude Copple is superintendent.
One of the maxims of Mr.. Reed is
that a man working in a logging camp
or at a mill should have the best of
food and plenty of it. and to this end
the company has employed as good
cooks as it is possible to procure. One
of the camp cooks, Joe Bailey, was for
many years head chef at the Hotel
Portland and the men feast off delica-
cies, pastries and viands fit for a king s
taste.
After the long drive up the steep
west range of the Cascades, the eye is
impressed with the scene of activity as
the eye takes in the basin in which the
huge mill, smoke pouring from the
stacks OF its battery of seven big boil
ers furnishing the steam with which
the mill is driven. The mill is in a
small basin, the log pond filled at the
present time with two million feet just
above it. The camps are further back
in the woods and there is no evidence
of the ceaseless efforts of the loggers,
except when one sees the water at the
south end of the pond fly in spray as {
batch of logs is sluiced in from the
hume. Scalers have their positions OF
the Hume and every night the company
knows just how many logs each caml
has sent in and the cost of doing the
work.
And the visitor to Green Point will
never forget the view had of the HooC
River Valley on the return. A repre-
sentative of the Glacier accompanied
Manager Robertson to the plant las
Thursday, the trip having been mad
in his automobile. On the return 4
the valley one is able to get gloriou
panoramic view of the entire Hoo
River community all the way iron
China Hill to the Columbia river, Will
the two mountains, Hood and Adam
are in plain view. The orchards ar
laid out to the view like plots of
park.

Sheldon, where the Mazamas were
located last summer. Climbers begar
