POSING AS A SMuGGLER

A young mar called at this Office
this forenoon and informed US that
he vas just from Canada and that
he had a lot Of ni:e things to show
us that he had struggled across the
border. Among them he mention
ed a lot Of nice woolens. He was
politely but firmly inform d that
were not in that line of busi-
ness. Our people are warned to
give the young man a wide berth.
If he will pose as a smugglcr he will
lie about his goods, which are just
as liable to be stolen as struggled
and just rs likely to be shoddy as
genuine. If you deal with Him, you
are pretty sure to regret it.

POST OFFICE NAMES

The history of the origin of post
office names affords many amusing
facts. Nota few of the names grow
out Of blunders in writing or spell
ing. The postofice department
presumably hasn't the time to con-
duct a special investigation in every
neighborhood, Sc it often jumps at
conclusions or draws upon its imag-
nation. says the Tecoma Ledger. In
the Princeton Press of West Eir-
GINA we find a curious instance of
a name conferred upon a post office
because uf an error in one letter of
a petition. There is a district in
that State known as Hill Top.
When the people of Hill Top decid-
ed to ask for a %postoffice a petition
was drawn up and sent to Wash
ington City. The writer was not
careful to dot the Il" in Hill. In
stead he made a sort of a loop that
was interpreted as nm "e". Call a
postoffice Hell Top" That would
never do. 1t shocked the agents
of Uncle Sam. But they thought
they would comply as closely as
possible with local sentiment so
they named the p~ostoffice Top
het." Tophet was a hill on which
the refuse of Jerusalem was dump
ed and buried. The fires were al
most continuous and hence Tophet
came to signify hell or a place of
endless perdition. Many postonice
names are duplicated but West Vir-
ginia boasts Of having the only Top
het in the land. What a difference
one letter Of a word makes in his
tory! 1t is said that Nome, Alas
ka, got its name from the fact that
the "a" OF the word name was in
ter preted for an TO-" AT that it
is a very impressive name.

Under date of Jan. 81, 1914,
Postmaster General B~uIlcson has
amended the Postal regulations as
follows:
Letters and post or postal cards

any postage is prepaid thereon.
other articles shall not be dis
patched unless prepaid at least in
part, and in all cases of insufficient
prepay ment DOUBLE THE

The option of no prepayment or Of

FAIR PRICES PAID FOR WOOL

According to j. Sheehan, cashier
of the First National Bank, who
keeps in close touch with the wool
business in this part Of the State,
about 35 per cent of the 1914 clip
of this county and the contiguous
territory Of the southeastern Ore
gon has been contracted for by the
eastern buyers.
The prices that have been paid
ranges from III to 13 cents a
pound, the average being consider
ably better than the sheep raisers
received last year, when practically
all the wool in this part of the
State was shipped to Boston on con-
Segment. The highest price paid
last year was ID cents and some
sales Of the consigned wool as low
as 9 cents were made.
The wool already sold or con-
tracted for includes John G. Tay-
lor's clip, the largest individual clip
in the State. This was bought by
w. C. Donald for Eiseman Bros.
and though the exact price has not
been made public. it was close
around the Is cent mark. The
Taylor clip ranks as one of the best
in the State and always brings near
the top price.
The wool that has been sold in
this section has been nearly all
bought Mr.. Donald and G. W.
Callahan. the latter buying for
Koshisnd G. Co. another of the
large Boston wool houses. - Hum.

UNIQUE FLOOD MARK

A striking warning against the
floods that rise with uncomfortable
rapidity and volume in the Rocky
Mountain streams is seer in a gorge
twenty five miles west of Denver.
Here Bear Creek, u mere rivulet,
hardly ankle deep, threads its way
for several miles through a narrow
canyon, in places hardly wide
enough to permit a roadway be-
side the stream. At one of these
narrow points a needle of granite
thrusts itself up between creek and
roadway to 4 point of more than
forty feet. Poised upo.I its top, like
the bar OH the letter +, is a huge
log, twenty feet long. 1t was left
there some years ago by a sudden
flood that drowned more than a
score Of people camping in the ran
yOn. On Il brass tablet fastened to
the pillar the county authorities
have inscribed this pregnant SEN
tcnce. IF you knew hat put this
log up here you wouldn't camp in
this canyon."--New York Times.

Iowa. will produce at Davenport
another station 80 miles down the
Mississippi. This plan is followed
all the way down the river and at
each point, full allowance is made
for the effects of water from tribu-
%taries, and from additional and 10
cal rainfall. AS a result Of these
ohser vations in the recent flood the
people of Cairo had warning a
week or 10 days in advance. The
Pittsburgh district can be given
only IL to "a hours notice because
a flood is upon them within "a
hours after a heavy rain storm.

BLUE SKY. HYSTERIA

The Denver Mining Record il
commenting on the "Bluc Sky Law
h~ysteria, says:
There is a fashion in reform
laws, as we'll as in dress. Follow
ing the example of Kansas, a score
of the states have during the las
two or three years placed "bluC
sky" laws upon their statute books
These states have merely FOLLOWED
a prevailing fashion, and they have
confessed to their vanity in the
failure to inquire as to the reaj
virtue of this new legislative habil-
ament.
I'VE may now expect the coIrts
of the country to follow a fashion
set by the federal judiciary in De-
troit, which had declared the "blue
sky" law of Michigan unconstitu-
tional. 1t is easy for legislatures
to attempt to interfere with the
personal liberties of citizens, to
place a censorship upon the normal
activities of business. But it is
equally easy, thank heaven, to find
courts with a calm appreciation of
the absurd ties which are sometimes
enacted into laws.
at is often remarked that there
is too much law making, instead
Of too little. The law-maker pre-
sumes that, since he is elected as
such, he is in duty bound to his con-
stituents to pursue this process OF
manufacture, regardless Of the
want Of demand tor his product.
The legislator is too often dis,
posed to take up any spectacular
suggestion that may appear anc
Of this spectacular nature is {
"bluc sky" law, the very epithet OF
which is bound to appeal to the
public imagination. Later on, thu
public wakes up and finds that the
spectacular law is either invalid oil
Il burden.
"ln the case of the Michigan
"blue sky" law, the federal cour
at Detroit rendered a sweeping ant
unanimous decision, declaring i
unconstitutional.
The court pronounced it an &C
beyond the police power Of tn
state and in violation of the right
of interstate commerce.. It is no
to be considered as "a due process
Of law" as that expression is I'm
derstood to the interpreters Of tn
United States constitution"

BIG INCREASE IN IMMIGRATION

During the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1913, 1,197, 1927 immi-
grants came to this country, an in
crease of 359,220 over the previous
year. OF those 996,335 were be-
tween ID and ID years of age, 147,-
15S yer under IA years and Ca
379 were 45 or over.
Twenty six per cent of the aliens
admitted were totally illiterate.
The bulk of the immigration came
from the countries Of Southern
Europe. only Is per cent coming
from Northern and Western Eur
ope.
While the immigration increased
Dc per cent during the last year,
tho number Of exclusions of arriv-
ing aliens was increased only "a per
cent. That was due, the report in
dicatss, to the financial and phys
ical inability Of the Bureau of I'm
migration properly to supervise the
great number Of arriving aliens.
Under existing arrangement OF
the $3.50 japanese who applied for
admission during the year, SO are
excluded.
Difficulties in enforcing the so
called Chinese Exclusion-Law were
discussed, with a view to the en-
actment of additional legislation ant
