BUSINESS AND ITS BOSSES.
(NeW York Sun.J

] According to Attorney General Greg orys recent brief in the international harvest case, the question Is, Shan
 competition. not combinatIon. be th. .aw of trader"
 Competition never was the law Of trade. IL used to be said that it was both the law and the life of trade. but it WAS neither The hope of prof. IS the life of trade, and opportunity for profit Is the law of it. When and as fast as traders; that Is. business men, discovered that competitor killeC profits and therefore killed trade, they endeavored to preserve both trade and profit through combination. In modern times combination as the protector of profit is the law of trade, a law su- perior to all statutory enactments. Despite the wild assumptions of contemporary politics, trade cannot be carried on without risk. To compen-
 sate for risk there must be profit Competition increases risk and tends to diminish profit. Combination seeks to conserve profit and minimize risk What politics has been trying to do
 through government in recent years has been to limit the profits and en- Lance the risk through @ statutory compulsion of competition.
 There Is need of a new political synthesls which will harmonlze the hypotheses on which governmental &C., .lon Is today based. Only the widest contradiction appears between pro- ceedings like the attorney generals In the Harvester trust case and the new elaborate apparatus of law denoted by the federal trade commission.

THOUGHTS OF WALKING.
(Coiumpus Evening Dispatch

Columbus Evening Dtspatch.)
 Walking Is mana natural mode of transportation. The muscles and nerves and bones of the body are in a natural position only when he stands upon his feet. So walking must be the mos, perfect exercise.
 Many of the statesmen of the world as well as many of the leading busi- ness men. walk to and fro across a room when dictating their speeches or working ,JI.t their commercial prob .ems. They dc not know why. per .,aps. But sh. srutn s, the mind Is more alert When one Is standing or walking than when he is sitting down
 The mind is influenced or affected oy the muscles and nerves, of course, by the digestive apparatus, if you please. and therefore by every posi- ion or motion of the body. The same thoughts will not flow through one s ulllu ~I'eH ho ID ASh4A So ~> would flow through if he were sitting upright or standing. The same line of reasoning will not result. And al ways that which comes la the way ot thought when one Is standing or walk Ing will be brighter and more logical than where one iz sitting or lyng.
 There Is nothing strange about this nothing whatever. If we had some way of knowing. the chances are we of the world have been worked out by men while upon their feet, or in an upright position.

w. B. Barratt At
tends Board Meeting

w. B. Barratt returned on Tuesday
evening from Salem where he attend
ed a meeting of the State Livestock
Sanitary Board in that city on Mon
day. the new Board organized for
work by electing its officers and the
choosing of a State Veterinarian. DR..
Lytle, the present incumbent, was re-
tanned in his position. Mr.. Barratt
stated that one matter of Importance
that was attended to in which our
people are interested. Upon his mo-
tion, it was decided that the services
of the officials of the State Vetrinar-
ian should be at the disposal of our
people who desired to make exhibits
of their stock at the coming county
fair, and this service is to be abso-
lutely free; In fact our people should
be free to call upon the State Vet
rinarian at any time when they have
infected stock, and he or competent
deputy will come, attend the case
and make no charge for his services.
The fact of misunderstanding as to
the inspection of stock in the county
last fall prevented decent showing
at the county fair of this important
industry, and Mr.. Barratt has seen
to it that this will not occur again.
All owners of livestock, therefore,
who contemplate exhibiting their
stock at the fair this fall, should
make their preparations and when
the proper time arrives the State
Veterinarian will be on hand to make
proper inspection free of any charges
to the owner of the stock.

.HEPPNER WINS ONE
GAME FROM lone
lone Takes Two Out of Three Game
Series-Much Lose Playing.

After receiving an eleventh hour
notice last week that Moro could not
come to Heppner to meet lone in a
series of games, the locals got busy
and lined up number of players who
put forth very fair species Of the
national game. Through the efforts
+Of l.. K. Harlan, some very good ma
terial, such as Krause of Moro, Hays.
Laphan and Hirshler of Portland and
Hopkins of lone, was secured. Har-
Ian, Jaynes and Hiatt represented
Heppner.
The first game, which was played
on Saturday afternoon was a good
one and very exciting up to the last
minute of play, the locals being at
one time 3 runs in the lead when the
score stood to 5. Hopkins bat
ting was the feature of the game, and
right here we might say that Hop
kins batting was the feature of the
series. His fielding was excellent as
well. Hopkins had been playing with
the lone team all season, until re-
Gently, when through some trouble
or another he was benched Heppner
was fortunate in having him and he
proved the heaviest batter of the two
teams.
The final score in the first days
game was 8 to in favor of lone.
Red Lund OF Portland twirled for the
Egg City team until the Sth, when
he was hit SO hard that he was taken
from the box and Sperry went in and
finished the game. Red Hart of
Hood River, who pitched until the
Sth, was jerked and replaced by
Krause.
The Sunday game was naturally
the best one, for Heppner was victor
ious, but this game was marked with
improved playing by both teams. A
large crowd attended on this day.
Harlan pitched for the locals and
Sperry was in the box for lone. Jack
Hays of Portland, started receiving
for Harlan but retired to the field in
His work with the stick was above
the average.
| The Monday morning game was
replete with errors on both sides, and
although Laphan, pitching for Hepp-
ner, got away to a good start, his sup
port was of the worst kind and he
found himself in a bad hole with lit
tie chance of getting out after all
hope had fed. He was finally re-
placed by Harlan, who in turn was
unable to check the lone boys in their
scoring. Lisle Brown pitched good
ball for lone. Final score, lone II,
Heppner 4.
DR.. Allison of Heppner and NJ F..

pires for the first two games and on

THE NEW WOMAN" IS
BEATING YOUNG MAN
Ex-senator Burkett Tells What This
New Woman Is And Pays A
Glowing Tribute to the
Country I'm Which She
Lives.

1.-THE New Woman and the Young
/ Man" was the subject of ex-senator
| Elmer j. Burketts lecture on We'd
nesday evening at Chautauqua. His
entire speech was a combination of
wit, humor and eloquent seriousness.
One time Mr. Burkett was to address
convention of school teachers at
certain place and mad prepared
speech on Mans Environment"
There were one hundred and fifty
teachers in the convention and only
six of them were men. He felt for
an instant that he was up against it,
since he could not change his speech,
so he just changed the title and spoke
on "The New Woman" This amply
illustrates where the Ex-senator got
his idea of the new woman. He told
his audience what this new woman is,
by first telling them what she is not.
According to the Nebraska statesman
she is the woman VINO is rising ever
higher, decade by decade, and from
present indications she is leaving rap
idly behind her the young man of to-
day.
There are boundless opportunities
for the young men In this day and
age, and according 20 Mr.. Burkett,
the youth of today has far more op-
portunities than had the young men
of yesterday, and he is better able to
meet those opportunities.
Senator Burkett paid a glowing
tribute to this country by describing
a touching incident which occurred
at Ellis Island, where is located the
government immigrant station. He
told of little old man arriving on
one of the large transatlantic steam
ers, described the look of hope in
the old mans eyes, as he came walk
ing briskly down the gang plank,
passing inspector after inspector. But
finally he received chalk mark on
the lapel of his coat. He was past
the age limit, and therefore could not
be passed into this country. He was
taken before the board of judges, the
ex-senator himself being present in
the court room. 1t developed that
this old man had been preceded to
this country by four sons and wife,
all OF whom had come to this coun-
try on the installment plan. In two
years these sons had become prosper
Gus and were able to send over for
not only their aged father, but also
their three sisters, who accompanied
the father across the water. 1t was
a touching scene when the old man
was finally permitted to join his fam
lily, but it only illustrates what is oc-
curing at the Island every day in
the year, that this country Is sweet
haven for the down irodden and sad
hearted peoples of ali nations.
Mr.. Burkett will speak again to-
night on Government Ownership Of
Railroads" and it is safe to predict
that he will be greeted with pavil-
ion filled with earnest listners.

take her to the hospital and this was
done on Wednesday forenoon. After
holding a consultation over the case,
the doctors decided that an operation
would be necessary, However, the
trouble, obstruction of the bowels
had got beyond the power of human
aid and Mrs. Sprouts died on the op-
