Ik a GERMAN woman docs her
~ duty her right lies there"
Frau Hedwig Meyer-Wal-
deck was speaking, wife of the former
Governor of Kiaow- Chow, now after all
these months homeward bound for
Germany from the China coast
had gone to her aboard the Ham
burg-American liner President Lincoln
through the hollow silence of the Ham
burg-American Hobokeu docks, where
the Vaterland in mighty rusting idle
ness and the Bohemia have lain for
eleven Ions months.
We were recalling the accusation of
the Countess of Warwick, that one of
the prime causes of tho war was the
attitude of the Prussian man toward
the Prussian woman, his insistence on
woman's specialization in what he be
lieves the particular fields to which
her sex calls her.
Mrs. Meyer Waldeck smiled. a slow
smile, the wide smile accustomed to
English generalization. She did not
wish to talk nor to be interviewed.
1--WE do not talk. A German lady
does not have any desire to be read of
In newspapers. We have not your
American point of view, onr the Eng
lish point of view" She stated it as
one perfectly satisfied with the posi-
ton of reserve to which her station
called her. Then we fell to talking,
nevertheless.
It was about the possible extension
of suffrage to German women after the
war
1--WE do not think Of after the war.
Sufragettes are not that. A few,
maybe"
"But the women OF the Social Dem
ocratic party, are they not likely 70
bespeak a share in governmental mi
tiative."
Perhaps" she said, "but it is not

REASON FOR SHORT CROPS.
Hopewell Grower Blames Blight for
Damage to Hop Vines.

A. c. Morford, Polk county hop
man, declares that he believes it is
not lice that has been causing trouble
in the hop yards, but thinks that it
is some new kind of blight, the nature
of which has not been exactly deter
mined. Mr.. Morford has been all
through Polk county and through
Benton county as far as Philomath,
and in every yard that he has looked
at he states that the trouble has been
something different than lice. Near
McMinnville, in Yamhill county, he
says that the farmers are calling it
blight rather than lice, which has
struck their yards. Where the yards
have been sprayed he finds them in as
bad condition as the unsprayed yards.
Mr.. Morford has Is acres of hops
and states he will have only about
half a crop. eff I get 10000 pounds
of dried hops, I will be lucky" he
said.

MR.. sToRK S RAPID FLIGHT.
Dallas Physician Follows Bird tt
Hills of Coast Range.

Semi occasionally the proud ole
stork flaps its wings, throws in the
high gear and flies along at an as
founding rate of speed, leaving in his
wake many little family troubles. Dr.
A. B. Starbuck, having heard of these
speedy travels, undertook to follow
the bird one day last week, and he is
satisfied that reports are true. He
put a bit of the ointment Of motion
into his Ford and started toward
Black Rock. En- route he delayed at
Falls City seven minutes to direct the
advent of a little stranger into one
happy family circle, made another
professional call and hurried on to
Black Rock. The Ford touched the
high spots in the abominable road
that goes to Black Rock, and it avoid
ed beautifully the streams that run
lin the ruts. At Black Rock the
doctor delivered a second charge and
made another professional call. He
arrived back in Dallas just three
hours and forty-fve minutes from the
time he left his office. Verify, the
winged one does go some!

NEW PASTOR WILL PREACH.
Rev. Howard Mcconnell to Fill Chris
tian Church Pulpit Sunday.

Rev. Howard Mcconnell of The
Dalles. whom the people of the Dallas
Christian church have called to be
their leader for the ensuing year, will
occupy the pulpit of that church next
Sunday, both morning and evening.
Mr.. Mcconnell is en- route to Dodge
City, Kansas, where he will conduct
an evangelistic meeting of a month s
duration. He was booked for this
meeting before accepting the call Of
the Dallas church. and will not be
able to enter the work here until the
latter pant of October. In the mean
time the place will be taken by Mrs.
Jennie c. Wheeler of Monmouth, who
has been co-worker with Mr.. Me-
Connell for the last four years at The
Dalles. Mrs. Wheeler is an efficient
minister of the gospel, and the con-
gregation considers itself fortunate,
indeed, in having secured her services
to carry on the work until the return
of their new pastor.

Rocking Salt Greek Road.

j. A. Roberts of Salt Creek declares
to The Observer that he had no in
tention of holding up the rocking of
the highway from the school house
to the Savery place through exorbi-
tant charge for the rock in a quarry
on his place, as might be inferred
from a statement recently made in
these columns. He says he rendered
the use of the quarry to the county
court at five cents per yard, but that
that body thought three cents would
be fair, remuneration for the mater
ial. This he declined to accept, but
asserts that he informed the court
that if the price stood in the way of
making the improvement the county
might take it without paying therefor.
The court has made arrangements to
get the necessary 500 yards of rock
for this improvement from the May
place.

GRAND LARCENY TRIAL TODAY
Independence Vagrant Claims limo
cence-Property Recovered.

j. B. Shea, dirilect, was brought
to the county Jail on Friday after
noon by Deputy Sheriff R. W. Veatch
OF Independence and held for trial
by Justice OF the Peace Holman on
the charge of grand larceny. The
man was practically caught in the
act, according to the deputy. He is
said to have taken suit case con-
tanning clothing and jewel box from
q buggy. The stolen property be-
longed to Mrs. Viola Seymour, who
had just arrived from visit in
Washington, and Shea was apprehend-
ed in a secondhand store where he
attempted to dispose of a watch and
chain found in the jewel box. This
article was recovered together with
rings and other trinkets from the per-
son OF the vagrant, and later Deputy
Veatch found the suit case and the
remainder of its contents under
walk near the Independence creamery.
A wedding ring and another watch
and chain are still missing. Shea dis
claims his guilt, and requested that
counsel be secured for him at the trial
this afternoon. While he was being
lncarcerated a band ring mysteriously
on the floor of the iail. but
this was not identified by Mr.. Sew
mour, son of the owner of the sto-
len goods. Justice Holman set the
Irall for l O'Clock this afternoon.

New Guest at the County Jail

Pleading guilty to a charge of as
sault and battery preferred against
him by Alex Masky, hop yard hand
who now nurses discolored eve, Jack
Rogan, who appears to cherish no
other ambition in. life than to make
himself known in the world of crime,
is spending five days at Sheriff Orr
well-populated lodging house. Depu-
ties Parker and Veatch arrested Ro-
gan at an Independence hop yard on
Saturday and relieved him of some
very heavy and aged artillery before
he was turned over to the sheriff.
The assault occurred, according to
the deputies, when Masky refused to
aid in a hold-up planned by the pris-
oner, adding a little insult to the in
jury done by his refusal.

TAX COLLECTIONS ARE FAIR.
Nearly $4,000 Collected During Past
Fortnight,

The "busy little bees" have had
nothing on the deputies in Sheriff
Orr's Office during the last two weeks.
September l was the last day of grace
for payment of taxes for the first half
Of 1915 and letters by hundreds, as
well as almost as many personally
presented payments, were received at
the Office, with the result that Thomas
Hooper and John Richter, the depu-
ties, have had to extend themselves to
handle the large amount of money and
enter it properly. One week ago to-
day the sheriff turned over to the
county treasurer $5,605.2S and today
approximately $4,000 will be depos-
tied. All payments that come in now,
or since the first of the month, will
be delinquent and the usual penalty
will be attached. Regular payments
on the second half taxes are coming
in now, and until the last day of the
present month the penalty will not be
attached.

District Attorney J. E. Sibley and
few volunteer fire fighters. The blaze
was making rapid progress along the
road and field toward Independence

to Independence for help and the vol
