Hannah were frustrated by queen Es

It Sure Has Been Raining Some

Up to the 7th of this month it had
been almost three months since a rain
had visited this section. But since
that time we have been having our
share. According to the report Of DR..
A. G. McKeown nearly an inch and a
half of rain has fallen since the down
pour began. On the 7th Of the month
the rainfall amounted to .37 OF an inch,
on the 14th 81, the 18th ID and
yesterday .37 of an inch. In Septem-
Der of last year the rainfall only
amounted to .65 of an inch and this
all came in the first seven days Of the
month, after which followed over a
month OF warm sunny weather.
The skies are still dark and threat
ening and it is evident that Jupiter
Pluvius is not yet thru with Leaven-
worth. At Cascade Tunnel 4 inches
of snow is reported to have fallen Wed

Death of Jack Nelson

After an illness Of only two days,
Jack Nelson died at the Leavenworth
hospital Yesterday afternoon at o.
clock. Only the first of the week he
took job on the Cascade Scenic High
way near Scenic, and had only been at
work about day when he contracted
a severe case Of pneumonia, and his
friends realizing that his condition was
serious he was brought to the Leaven-
worth hospital in this city. He was
given prompt attention, but the dread
ed disease had fastened a death grip
on him which he was unable to escape.
Mr.. Nelson was one OF the old tim
ers in Leavenworth, having come to
this city some fifteen years ago and
during his stay here made many friends.
The funeral arrangements have not as
yet been made, although it is expected
that burial will take place in the local
cemetery Saturday.

Ten thousand Dollars Spent
to Prove Disputed Fact
Strange Scenes Enacted at Big Cele-
bratiOn
Rv David Powell.

copyrighted 1914; all rights reserved
Many communities of the middle
west went through the same mail-order
fad some five or six years ago that
seems now to be affecting the people
of the northwest and which bids fair to
leave the same trail of commercial dis
aster in its wake here as it did there.
Having learned from various sources
that the craze seems somewhat to have
abated in that district during the past
year or so, and that there were many
communities which seemed to evidence
some signs of returning life, resolved
on trip through the affected country
to learn as to actual conditions both
past and present, and to find out by
first hand evidence what particular kind
of medicine and what sized doses had
been used in effecting cure"
I found that when the large cata-
logue houses of the. eastern cities first
perfected their wonderful selling sys-
tenn and put it to work in the old, well
settled farming states Of the central
west, conditions were ripe for just such
an innovation. These conditions had
been created and perpetuated by that
fast disappearing class OF merchants
who believe in the good old system Of
taking all the traffic will bear" and
the people were in just the mood to
be gathered by thousands to the ban
ner Of this new defender of their purse
strings, whose every promise glittered
with the lure OF golden relief, How
ever unjust it may have been, the re-
putable merchant class was compelled
to suffer the inevitable results along
with those who were duly and quite
properly punished.
AS the business Of the catalogue
houses grew with leaps and bounds a
wall Of bitter despair went up from the
merchants OF every town and village in
half dozen states. Many and varied
were the plans they tried in a vain
effort to stem the tide of money flow
ing past their doors in a never return
ing stream, but as such efforts seem to

FARM NOTES
welcome.

The need of the rural communities
today is intelligent and consecrated
leadership.
The farm is the power house of all
progress and the birth place Of all that
is noble.
The farm is the nursery of civiliza-
ton and the parsonage OF all religious
denominations.
The farmer asks no special privi-
leges. The business of farming only
wants the same opportunities afforded
other lines OF industry.
1t is as much duty of the country
pastor TO exhort US to own a home
while on earth as it is to inspire US to
build mansion in the skies.
The rural press, the pulpit and the
school are trinity of powerful in
luences that the farmer must utilize to
their fullest capacity before he can
occupy commanding position in pub
lie affairs.

have been of spasmodic nature in
most cases, and founded on what ex-
perience has proven to have been
wrong principles, they quite naturally
failed in their purpose. I found that
no headway was made by the mer-
chants in regaining their lost business
until the great need that existed for
relief had crystallized into firm con-
viction that the only way to secure
permanent results was to take the con-
suming public into their confidence.
and by proper system of education
lead them to see for themselves the
real truth about mailorder competition.
Strange as it may seem that so pat
ent fact could for any great length
of time be ignored by any even semi
intelligent group of merchants, the fact
remains however that such is the case.
At least by that hypothesis only can I
account for the great number of small
towns and villages scattered through
out that entire section OF the country
that are steadily dwindling in popula-
ton and commercial prestige. 1t is
very evident they lack the kind OF men
and the proper spirit to come back,
and it seems to me their only excuse
for further existance is to serve as
crumbling relics of by-gone CONNER
cial age; their merchant prototypes of
those who, years before, by their mar
rowness and penny-g grasping business
methods, paved the way and made
welcome the first catalogue sent to
their town. They present to the eye
a silent. grim array of empty store
buildings and deserted streets that
give mute witness to the folly and
ignorance OF the people on the one
hand, and the apathetic incompetence
of the merchants on the other; the
peoples error lying in their obstinate,
blind devotion to the siren voice of the
catalogue, and the merchants. in their
reluctance to look the truth straight in
the face and the unwillingness OF their
sloth-like brains to put forth the effort
necessary to adapt their business meth
ods to the changed conditions that
came into existance with the advent OF
the catalogue in their community.
Although great is the number Of the
towns that have never recovered, and
probably never will, the fact that they
could have done so is amply proven
by the few that did. Scattered here
and there over the FIVE states l COW
