| drowning body in. ter.
One day a radical came along and
said:
why spend all your time picking
a few bodies out of the river? Why
not go up stream and nab the fellows
who are throwing these brethren in?"
Some of the rescuers had never
thought of that.
But, alas, most of 'em couldn't act
on the hint, for their living depended
on the throwers-in.
l had a curious reminder of this
parable the other day when l saw in
paper how group of bully fine fell
lows in a city 1 know had banded
together to raise fund for fedora
ton of charities.
In the paper was a list of big con-
tributors- chaps who furnished
the skiff and the boat-hooks. Since
such lists are pretty much alike
everywhere, maybe you'd be interest
ed in brief analysis.
The largest giver was a patent
monopolist, himself so rich his money
hothers him-but in his great plant
are hundreds of women and girls paid
hardly enough to keep them alive.
Next came landlord who has fat
tened like a spider on the unearned
increment of his unimproved land.
One liberal donor got his millions
out of the sale of watered stocks.
One through a squeeze-hold on fran
chises. One through trust promo
ton. And so on. My analysis of the
list showed less than 10 per cent of
clean or free money in support of the
rescue work in this river.
More than 90 per cent was the
money of the chaps upstream who
we're throwing the bodies in, having
first carefully picked their pockets.
The various churches in America
have been most diligent in buying
skiffs and manning rescue crews.
How soon are they going to wake

IN REPLY To SUIT.

BAKER. ore. Dec. f7.-Denial
that the C0pperfleld saloonmen lost
money which they would have made
in the liquor business at Copperfield
was made a part Of the answer OF
Governor West. p. X. Lawson and
Nern y. Walton to the suits brought
by II. II. Stewart and Antoine WarLer
end by William Wiegand for recov
a,y Of $500 damages for the destruc-
ZION OF their saloon business. The
answer was filed by Frank T. Collier
OF Portland, attorney for Governor
West
TIE answer declares that the Cop
periiolG saloonmen made money but
thu, they did so only from the ille-
gal business OF conducting gamblinI
elrle. for drinks. etc. anc that the IL
quor tosiness was run otherwise at
a ioss.
Business Depression Cited.
The answer declares that the Cop
perfleid saloons were battling against
each other in the limited field for bus
mess at a time Of business depression
and that no one was making money
legitimately.
II is contended that the principal
part OF the business which the gov
ernor closed consisted OF gambling
halls instead Of saloons. and that
therefore the governor certainly was
empowered to close them. The an
swer also alleges that the plaintifis
we're illegally rectifylng liquor which
they kept in bulk and stamped fraud
ulently as bonded goods. II Is de-
clared that the saloonmen mixed al.
cohol and water with the liquors and
otherwise Illegally rectified them.

unnecessary fine point Of perfection.
While this contention is not granted
il must be admitted that some Of the
recommendation 10y untrainei en-
thusiasts bear a close resemblance to
the Royal Society's recomm meniations
with regard to bathing. These, re-
duced to their lowest terms are DO
