LEI Us BE THANKFTI.

The annual day Of Thanksgiving is
again upon us. Pessimists may have
a hare time finding something to be
thankful for. but the day is again
here none the less and the man or
woman so hard pressed that they
have gone blind 10 all sorts Of favor.
are in a bad way indeed. We are in
disposed 10 fly of now TO patting our
selves upon the back because Europe
is at war, and we are not. We are in
disposed to making it a mere day or
gratitude for material prosperity, or
the lack Of greater material adversely.
II there is day in all the year when
mankind should be at it's best lin
spirit and in truth, this is the day.
1t is a time for US to take inven-
tories Of ourselves. Have we, during
the year that has gone, done our share
10 eliminate conditions OF which we
are prone to complain? 1t might be
well for some Of us TO make this a
day OF non-complaining. If the aver
age among US will bat sit down and
analyze our nervous systems, investi-
gate the realities back Of our sur
misses, and try to find some founda-
ton beneath our imaginings. the prob
ability is that after settling with our
own shortcomings. we will have COM
parativeIy little TO complain about.
You should never complain about
things that you might have helped
and Is does you no good to complain
about things that you could not help
hut this is a negative attitude, and
row, let us change back to a positive
one. Gratitude, being thankful. is
simply the reverse of dissatisfaction
and resentfulness. Take an inventory
OF what you have accomplished and
what has come 10 you and see how
you feel about that. If you can only
set yourself in an appreciative frame
Of mind for the day its entire purpose
Will have been accomplished.
And thus let the spirit OF thankful
ness have its way. 1t will enlarge our
souls, refine our sentiments, and make
Us feel a triae better, perhaps the
whole year round. Let US be thank
ful that nature has endowed US with
a set of faculties, sentiments, feelings,
impulses-call them what you WILL
that make thankfulness possible.

QUEER PRECEDENT, AT LEAST.

When a court presents a ruling
that's brand new, the same is likely
to become a precedent that other
courts will reverence, and it becomes
the folks to take notice, for a court
precedent can only be killed in it's
infancy. before it has become strong
and vigorous upon the nursing bottle
of judicial temperament.
\ state circuit court judge Of Ore
gon has just fined two business men a
total of $3.50 for "tratficking in
school girls" the particular girl in the
case being II years of age. If the girl
lives an upright life for five years, the
$3.50 is to be paid over 20 her. The
convicted men were given penitentiary
sentences but were paroled, and will
probably raise the money.
Doubtless the decision in this case
Will prove a warning to men-at least
20 men to whom loss of $1,250 is a
very serious matter.
Also it appears to show to girls of
lax morals a way in which TO secure
what might be called a pension.
Heaven knows, the law cannot be
too vigorous in its pursuits of men who
would prey upon girls. but such effort
to promote morality. like most all ef-
forts at reform, often proves TO be
two-edged. Every man who takes a
strange girl into his office or store to
work takes a risk, under the indef-
rite application OF laws against con-
tributing to negligence. and this mill
tates against the employment of
worthy girls. Notwithstanding that not
one case IN ten wherein the risk was
fatal ever comes to light, and in every
case that does become public the nc
cused suffers. innocent or guilty
Take the case displayed in the
newspapers only recently: Herbert w
Lewis. So years old, with wife and
two grown children. and head OF the
Chudren's home of California, was &C
cused by 15-year- old girl. Records
Of the California hospital at Los An
geles. recently made. prove beyond
any question the impOssibility of his
offense but. knowing that the stigma
would forever attach TO him, running
his life-wOrk, Lewis went out into a
Park and killed himself 1t would ap-
pear that Offering a pension TO girls
who are abused is a precedent not
without its drawbacks, as a reform Of
either men or girls.

MORE FEDERAL ENCROACH-
NIFNT.


Another effort of the federal gov
eminent to usurp the powers of the
states is looming high above the
horizon. The question is shall all au-
thority of the state over the railroad
rates be wiped out and full control
given TO the Interstate commerce
commissions and that the federal COM
raised by the so-caued Shreveport
rate case, and all the leading railroads
have started cases seeking TO divest
the state authority.
The state commissions and the ship
pers are opposed to this move. They
contend that interstate rates ought to
be Ief, 20 the authority of the state
commissions and thatthe federal COM
mission would not be equal 10 the task
OF rate making carried to the extent
which would be necessary if the state
missions were wiped out. At the re-
cent session OF the state commission
ers an address by Solicitor Farrell of
tbs interstate commerce COmTnl ssi on
advocated an extension of the Shreve
port doctrine. but a resolution was
passed by an overwhelming vote ex-
pressing the belief OF the commission
crs that the state authorities should
be upheld % q specified degree.
The resolution provided that the In
terstate commerce commission should
not have legal power to enforce rules
OF rates or 10 exempt "a railroad from
rules or rates prescribed by state
commissions until such rate or rules
shall have been found unreasonable
by judicial determination. In other
words the state commissioners believe
that the courts should stand between
the ruling of a state commission and
the authority of the interstate com
mission.
And thus the tendency OF the years

from 10000 to 10000 Colonial troops
are in France.
According to the "Suez Weekly
Shipping List" the only vessels which
could have transported Indian troops
through the Suez canal down to Sept
- were the "Urlana," 4,172 tons;
'Barala." 2,136 tons; 'Fuetela," 1884
tons; Elisha" 5000 tons; "UIa, &"
4.242 tons; "Thongwa," 3,736 tons.
and the "Mongara," 1923 tons. All
these vessels, which came from India
bound for Europe. were described as
freighters in manifest. The number
of passengers were not given. But
neither of these ships is capable of
carrying more than 1000 souls. Down
to Oct. no other transports passed
through the canal.
According to inside information
from Canadian sources, tie total num-
Der sent over, down to the middle Of
October. was about 13, 900. 1t is true
that about 10000 volunteered, but of
these many were rejected as unfit, the
protests Of parents and wives cut
down the contingent materially, and
finally, a large number disappeared,
and the total was cut down to the
number named. OF these the majority
were born in England.
When the war fund, raised by pop
ular subscription in Canada, failed to
come up to expectations, all kinds of
expedients were resorted to. One was
TO ask everybody to donate the pro-
ceeds of a days work to the fund.
While no one was cOerced into con-
tributing, those who refused to give
faced the alternative of being dis
charged from their positions. In this
way a considerable sum was realized.
No wonder the news comes that the
English people who thronged the
roads to see the troops from Canada
were disappointed at their appearance.
They expected at least a good Wild
West show. Perhaps they secretly
hoped that a company of volunteers,
Indians armed with scalping knives
and giving war 'whoOps, and a de-
tachment Of shouting Rough Riders
would be among the contingent. In
these Gays the scent for the sensa-
tional is keen. and the British idea
of things and men American is nat
urally bound to be disappointed.

THANKSGIVING.

This morning the sun should be shin
ing
On a world of plenty and peace.
In mood with the Creators designing,
That strife and trouble should
cease.
1t is spoken that mankind proposes,
And would carry their plans to the
end,
But that the power divine disposes,
And that all to His purposes bend.
Falth alone IS the pow'r mat binds one
To belief in this prOverb so old,
So much to belle it mas been done
1t retains not the glitter Of gold.
Yet in spite Of its faults and its needs,
The world is a good place to live,
The lesson of old man still needs,
'Tis less blest to receive than to give.
Today is the time of Thanksgiving,
And though the skies may be dark,
Let the day be free from misgiving,
And our hearts as glad as the lark.

First, the license charge; second, the

after one obtains the license and the
farmers permit the hunting should be
good.

An UNUSUAL VERDICT.

Whether it is merely a freak YER
dict or the beginning Of a new order
of things, a Chicago jurys return of
verdict of guilty against two women
accused Of murder is 50 unusual that
it is being generally commented on
by the press. The defendants, a
mother and daughter, resented the
"dunning" of a neighbOr who had
loaned them some money and finally

is not the conviction in such a plain
case of guilt, but the fact that in Il

He tele- graphed to Circuit Court Judge An derson, District Attorney Goodwin and Sheriff Rand of Baker county, calling attention to a law providing that no person belonging to the mili- tary forces of the state shall be ar rested on civil process while on duty.
 The governor would not say today whether he would extend his anui-sa- loon crusade into the town of Hunt ington and place it under martial law as he has done in Copperield, but he intimated he would delay action at least until he had studied the re- suits of the crusade elsewhere.
 Gov. West announced tat he has removed Samuel White. judge advo- cate general of his military staff, for extending advice to those in sympa- thy with the alleged violators he is attempting to reach in Copeprfield.
