INSTITUTION

The imitator is like the coun.
business with a cheaper, lower
grade article Of merchandise,
made as a substitute for the gen.
uine, and generally sold at a
cheaper price. arguing, as usual,
that it is "just as good" The
dealer is persuaded to handle it
on glowing promises of enormous
prof1ts-much larger than the reg
ular legitimate profit which is
made on the genuine article. The
imitator succeeds in playing upon
goods on sale with the dealer, and
instructs him to take advantage
Of the public by substituting the
false article for the genuine at
every opportunity. You can be
.pretty sure that Whenever you
ask for a well-knowa product and
the dealer tells ydu he has som
thing else that's Just as good, ..
even better, the dealer is going to
ticle than the n you call for,
and in nine cases out Of ten you
4 will get, q much inferior article.
Some buyers are easily imposed
upon and this encourages the
"get-rich-quick" schemers to in.
crease their substitutions. This
also discouraGes the legitimate
manufacturer who is putting out
articles Of merchandise that rep
resent honest value to, the corr
sumer. Where a man has devoted
. years Of his life in ~perfecting an
article that he Knows cannot be
e1celled in quality; where he. has
| spent thousands of dollars in adj
/ vertising his goods; and where
! these goods have been giving uni-
versal satisfaction for a long
time, great injury results by per-
hitting substitution to rob him
OF his market and at the same
time rob the consumer by selling
hin doubtful article at practi-
cally the same price.
. There is no law through which
such evil practices can be stopped.
The sole remedy is for the legisi-
mate manufacturers to ask the
public direct not to p%atronize
dealers who try.to substitute a
different brand of goods for the
Kind wanted. All first class deal
I ers know that ii. is poor business
to try to substitute something
else for the article wanted.

TOMORROW IS LAST DAY
/. FOR SHOOTING OF DUCKS
>>>>>>

Tomorrow is the last day of the
duck season in Oregon. According to
the state law there Is Is days more
of duck shooting but the federal gov
ernment has passed migratory bird
law covering all the states of the
union and according to the ruling un-
der this law. the duck and goose sea-
sons in Oregon and Washington close
January 10. AS the federal duck
law takes precedence over the state
statute there will be no more legal
duck shooting in Oregon until Octo-
ber !, 1914.
Those hunters who go out tomor-
row and who desire to keep the re-
suit of their prowess can do so by Sc
curing the necessary tags from the To-
cal game warden. These are for sale
at a nominal price and when attached
to the leg OF duck killed in open
season will permit the owner to keep
the bird as long as he desires.

YOUNG OFFENDERS SHOULD
Be GIVEN SQUARE DEAL
CONVICTED FOR FIRST TIME FOR
MINOR OFFENSES SHOULD
BE PROBATED.

DENVER, Jan. 14-"Every young
man convicted for the first time
should be given another chance ex-
cept when conviction Is for the most
serious offenses. That chance need
not be through his being turned loose
on the community. We should have an
adult probation law. enabling men to
be put on probation as boys are, in
the state reformatory. and given his
freedom as soon as his behavior. his
intentions. his past and the history Of
his parentage may warrant"
Judge Charles C. Butler who today
finished his first year on the GRIM
inal bench here, gave in these words
the gist of his theory of real justice
which one year of dealing with crimi-
nails of all classes caused him to for
mulate.
Under the present system" he
continued, except in the rarest cases
where the judge exercises the limits
II his discretionary powers. the good,
bad and Indifferent must be sent to
the penitentiary il certain verdicts
are rendered. Colorado doubtless has
one of the best conducted prisons in
the country but any penitentiary is a
breeder of criminals.
For hardened men who persist
entity defy the law and for those who
are predestined from birth to commit
crimes. the penitentiary is necessary
and no one is greater believer than
I am in the segregation of the real
criminal But my experience on this
bench has taught me that only a small
per cent of the men and women who
are convicted before this bar are GRIM
inals by instinct and desire. That So
ciety will ultimately deal with the
born criminal. not as a criminal. but
as diseased individual, have no
doubt.
THE problem of the hour in Colo
rado is the obtaining of an adult pro-
baton law whereby those who have
been convicted of their first offense
will be sentenced only tentatively, to
be released If 1t is proved that society
will be benefited more by their free
dom than by their imprisonment"

FORREST INDICTED ON A
CHARGE OF KILLING Elk

George Forrest. the we'll known
Athena rancher who was recently ar
rested on charge of killing elk, was
indicted yesterday by the grand jury.
He was arraigned this morning by
Circuit Judge Phelps and his case set
for trial Saturday morning at 3
o'clock.
This promises to be one of the most
interesting cases to be tried at the
present term of court
1t will be remembered that Forrest
and julius Williams. the latter an In
dian, were arrested a few weeks ago,
charged with killing two elk which
were supposed to be part of a carload
shipped in from Yellowstone National
Park by Walla Walla county. WASH
ington. The animals were liberated
near the headwaters of the Walla
Walla river and as winter came on
they moved south into Oregon. Most
of them stopped along the river above
Milton but these two ventured on
down into the wheat fields southeast
of Athena where they are supposed
to have been killed.
Before they. disappeared the elk
were seen by a number of people and
are reported to have been as tame as
milk cows. Several residents of Athe-
ma and vicinity had become greatly
interested in them and had taken
steps to care for them during the
winter. Among these was Attorney
Homer | Watts, who is now engaged
in defending the man accused of kill
ing one of the animals.

lar death by drowning in a barrel OF
water along the railroad track near
