". S. c. MEETS HEAVY
0. A. c. TEAM SAT.
First Conference Game on Rogers
Field-Coach Has Confidence in
Teams Spirit

Naen Coach Bender's team lines
up against the fast heavy o. A. c.
aggregation on Rogers Field Satur-
day they will be up against the hard
est team in the conference to beat.
O. A. c. is heavier than Oregon Uni
yersity, and, while not as fast, is
fully as aggressive. and may be de-
pended on to fight to the finish.
With 13 letter men, most of them
two or three-year men, to choose
from, Coach Stewart has been able
to build up a wonderful machine, the
effectiveness of which was testified
to in the O. A. C.-Willamette seance
at the Corvallis Dedication Day exer-
cises last Saturday. Sixty-four points
rolled up on a team that was consid-
cred almost of conference caliber
last year, and at that without the
lie, and other of last years regulars,
and Cole. a Kansas star who is
eligible this year.
In Lutz, Abraham, Yeager. and
Hofer the Oregon school has a back
field equalled only by such famous
quartets as \Mucklestone, Wand,
Spargher, and Coyle. These men
average over 1872 pounds, while
Dietz, Bangs, Satterthwaite, and Ber-
nard average less than 100.
1t will be to the advantage of the
Crimson and Gray men to have a
dry, fast field, as their speed and
open play will be most effective
under those circumstances. Dietz s
punting and Demands returning of
punts will be relied on to some ex-
tent in order to discount the weight
of the Oregon team.
Two years ago w. S. C. won on
Rogers Field 1919 in the last two
minutes of play, when Ding" Coult-
er made a perfect place kick with O..
A. c. two points in the lead. Last
year, in spite of the fact that we
should have won, o. A. G, trimmed
us 1912 on their field.
The same lineup will enter
against o. A. G. as started in Port
land Saturday, providing Captain
Alvord's back and knee heal up suf-
ficiently. He was subjected to very
severe handling by the Oregon backs
and their knees we're very effective.
Aside from Alvord. no one was badly
bruised, which was indeed fortunate
under the circumstances.

GREAT INTEREST IN
PULLMAN HOG SHOW
Reports of Committeeman Indicate
That Exhibits Will Far Exceed
Those of Last Year

The third annual Pullman Hog
Show which will be held Friday and
Saturday, November 27 and 2S, bids
fair to eclipse in point of exhibits
either of the two previous shows. A
meeting of the committee in charge
of the annual show, which consists
Of H. Folger, G. F. Monroe, F. NJ
slagle, A. e. Olson, DIR. E. A. Arch

reported general interest and in
Quiry from nearly all of the breeders
throughout the Inland Empire. They
we're assured by a number of the
prize winners at the Spokane Inter
state Fair and State Fair at North
Yakima, as we'll as exhibitors at the
Whitman County Fair, that they
would be on hand with exhibits at
there has been reservations for some
40 pens, which is far in excess of the
number reserved at this time last
year. Breeders as we'll as buyers
are alive to the advantages of at
tending the Pullman show and are

Mr.. Linberger of North Yakima, Who
won the grand champion boar prize

of Berkshires; Mr.. Peasly of Spo-
kane, breeder of Durocs; Mr.. Wilson,
breeder of Hampshires at Granger,

be the best collection of swine ever
assembled in the Inland Empire.

gon Agricultural College, who judged
last year and gave perfect satisfac-
ton, and Mr.. H. B. Carol of Ellens-

Prohibition Advocates VIII Present
Startling Facts and Figures To

Towns

Startling facts and figures we're

Gates in their search of the county
records made during the past few
days, and these facts and figures will
be presented to the voters of the
county during the strenuous cam
paign for initiative measure No. 3,
which will be waged during the next
two weeks. Figures on the finan-
cial advancement of Whitman coun-
tvs two largest towns, Colfax (wet)
and Pullman dry, show that dur
/ ing the past four years the assessed
valuation of Pullman has increased
54.4 per cent, while that of Colfax
has advanced only 35,7 per cent. The
figures secured by the committee

nine saloons paying an annual
license fee of $1,000 each to help pay
the expenses. The records also show
that Pullman has steadily decreased
her Indebtedness under dry regime,
while the Indebtedness of our sister
city has increased by leaps and
bounds, until her own citizens are
suing for relief
In comparing the two towns of the
county whose population Is nearest
the same, Uniontown (wet), whose
population is 1926, and st. John
(dry) whose population is 42t, were
taken as examples. The figures
show that the 1912 and 1913 tax
levy for Uniontown was 33 mills,
while that of ST. John was only
eight mills.
A delye into the criminal records
disclosed even more startling com
PARSONS in favor of the dry towns.
Whitman county has / 5 dry towns,
with a total population, according to
lIt ltloA Atil0h5r VI 1 ySpGt anu III
these towns, during the past two
years, 1928 arrests have been made
by the sheriff, or a ratio Of one ar
rest to each IS of population. Seven
towns of the county, with an aggre-
gate population of only 1911, are
wet, and in these seven towns,
during the same period of time. 313
arrests were made, or ratio of one
arrest in dry towns to four arrests in
wet towns, population considered.
In Colfax during the two-year period
1879 arrests were made by the sher-
ifG's office. while Pullman added 80
arrests to the dry" list.
On October Is complete canvass
was made of the inmates of the
county jail, which showed that dur

this number % came from wet
towns, and only five from dry COM

 LOWELL PLENTY
Stores Prepare for Easter Busi-
 ness; Houses and Rooms Are Not to Be Had; Big Advance in Realty Values

The Lowell store of Phelps-Dodge goods displayed in the show windows, Yesterday the dressers were busy with this work and they indicated that they would have some of the most attractive showings that have been made in the district The Bisbee stores will have to travel right along if they equal the Lowell enterprise,
 We are justified in such enter prise as we put forth said Manager Sowle of the store yesterday, for the reason that our Lowell people pay much attention to the windows and take no small local pride in them, That this pride Is substantial is best evidenced to us by the steady in- crease in business that attends. Our Lowell store has gained great deal in the last year and is keeping stead. fly at it. Population is unquestion. ably increasing here with more ra- pidity than is generally recognized.
 The growth in business is by no manner of means confined to our own store. All Lowell business men are doing a great deal more than year ago. All of them, too, are carrying larger and more attractive stocks.
 Concerning general conditions at Lowell it was learned yesterday that beside much increased prosper ity in mercantile lines there has been a strong advance in realty demand and values. As in Bisbee the vacant house or room is an unknown thing. This has been true for nearly a year. In that time there has been no small amount of money made by those who

WOOD FAILS ID
 LAND THE P. ].
Favorite in Postoffice Handi.
 cap Is Distanced; Guy
 Alsap Is Now Running in Lead for the Position

PHoENlX, Feb. 1s.-State Sen. ator C. B. Woods, according to his own statement has slipped up some. how in his ambition to be postmaster or Phoenix. Either Guy Alsayp or J. II. Fleming is to land the job
 Three weeks ago the appintment of Wood was donceded. Information came from reliable sources that Con gressman Carl Hayden had decided to give his old friend the place he sought. But Hayden evidently has changed his mind for he has recom- mended to President Wilson that Al. sap be apointed to the coveted posi-. ton. Postmaster General Burles,on has asked President Wilson to an. point Fleming, who is a brother.in. law of William c. McAdoo, secretary of the treasury and one of Wilson's right hand men. It may even be pos sible that McAdoo said something to Burleson before that recommends. tion was made. Hayden, in letters to Phoenix, says that NLcAdoo did not ask him to do anything for Fleming
 Fleming was appointed selector of public building sites at a salary Of $500 a month and expenses but he does not like the job because it re quires him to be travelling around all the time.
 Selim Nicholson and Vernon L.. Clark have been after the postoffice as well as Wood and Fleming. The movement in favor of Alsap was started by his friends. Though he has never taken any part in politics there is no more popular young man in the city and representations were made to Hayden that for him to support Alsap as a compromise would be the easiest way out of difficult situation.
 Wood says that he knows now that he is not to be postmaster. He claims that another federal position has been offered him but declines to state what 1t is.

FEARS THE ASYLUM
 ...COMM|TS SUICIDE
Special to the Review.)

PHOENIX, Feb. 1S.-Fearing that he was about to be sent to the state asylum for the insane, George Avery. aged 6S, pioneer of Arizona, yes terday morning defeated the plan to incarcerate him by slashing his throat with a razor. So hard stroke did he make that his head was nearly sev- cred from his body.
 The suicide has been a guest of the Central Hotel for several days and appeared to be worried at times, though, on the whole, showed little inclination to take anyone into his confidence. Three days ago he con. fided to Charles Blake, the clerk, that he was being bounded by the author tiles for the purpose of sending him to the asylum. Avery gave the clerk $4OO to keep for him and remarked that he would beat them to it."
 This morning about 7:15 Blake thought he heard heavy fall on the floor above and remembering what Avery had told him, mounted the stairs and looked over the transonl. He saw body on the floor with blood squirting out of the mans neck. He immediately summoned the police who broke down the door. but life was extinct by the time of the ar rival of the officers. Avery's effects were gone through in an effort to To- cate relatives. None could be found. however and no connections of any kind have, aa yet been located.

Phoenix is to be the first city in Arizona with the Somers system of real estate valuation. A committee cf some twenty representative citi- zens has been named and daily ses- sfcns are being held. These sessions are attended by William Young, and James c. Stafford, representatives of the Manufacturers Appraisal Co.,, of Cleveland. which controls the Somers system. County Assessor J. T. Bone and City Assessor c. w. Barnett at tend all sessions.
 It has been decided that the block on the west side of Central avenue, between Washington and Adams street, is the most valuable in the city. Probably the value of the prop erty fin that square will be fixed at from sl05O to s1lOO a front foot. Then the committee will determine how much the continuous blocks are worth and gradually work out to the suburbs.
 In all probability Tucson vii lbe the second city to have the Somers system installed. The work here will not be concluded for some weeks.
