S. J. HARRISON is PLEASED
Benton County's Candidate for Con-
gress Believes He Will Win
In the Primaries RS

S. j. Harrison, of Benton City, re-
publican candidate for congress,
passed thru Kennewick Monday en-
route to Walla Walla, where he ad-
dressed the Hughes-Fairbanks club
Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Harrison expressed himself as
exceptionally well pleased with his
chances for landing the nomination.
He expects to come out of the Yakima
valley with big lead of first choice
votes and indications are that he will
more than break even on first choice
votes in Whitman county, the home
of Congressman LaFollette. He is
exceptionally strong in Asotin county
and has some active supporters among
the party leaders of Adams county.
In Walla Walla, Columbia and Gar
field counties, which are conceded to
Will 81. Fouts, of Dayton, Mr.. Harri-
son will probably poll heavy second
choice vote.

SHOWED HIM THE DOOR.
And Dickens Wont and Stood Not
 Upon the Order of His Goina.

Upon the Order of His Going.
 Colonel B. was the proprietor of a widely known old house in the south which three-quarters of century ago had earned its reputation as a we'll conducted tavern.
 When Charles Dickens came to Amer. fca he stopped ut this southern house. He was hardly settled in his room be fore Colonel B. was at the door He assured him that his horses. his wines. all the lavish hospitality of a state famed for it's generosity, stood at the convenience of the distinguished wis. itOr.
 Dickens received the proffer coldly. In London one did not accept a tavern keeper as social equal. So 1t was that he returned the courteous offer by saying that when he wished the serv. ices of the innkeeper he would send for him.
 For sixty seconds Colonel B. stood si. lent, his great face growing redder all the while. Finally he stretched out a long Grm toward Dickens.
 You go, sirr' he stammered And do not stand upon the order of your going"
 The novelist went. And it Is to be trusted he had learned that the Ameri can hotel keeper of that day and age was not to be confused with his broth. CT in faroff Europe.-Edward Hunger tord in Saturday Evening Post

Social Structure.

What is a social structure? It may be an ant hill or democracy. It is usually composed of mass of indi. viduals banded together for mutual disagreement It is centripetal and centrifugal. Each individual would like to get out of it, but he doesn't know how. Small masses of individ. uals, also banded together, would like to get out of 1t, but they don't know how. Larger masses of individuals banded together would like to get rid of some of the smaller masses. but they don't know how. Nobody wants everybody else to stay. Everybody doesn't want anybody to stay. The result Is that nobody can get rid of anybody.
 Hence the social structure.-Life

Qriuin of Geome etry.

There is little doubt that tine science of geometry had fits origin ir Egypt. The annual overflow of the Nile wiped out all landmarks and boundaries, and some reliable means of measuring the earth was an absolute necessity; hence the rise of geometry. which means earth measurement. From all accounts the philosopher Thales took the science from Egypt to Greece, where it was greatly improved and carried very near the perfection 1t finally reached through the discoveries of the celebrated Descartes of the sev- enteenth century.

\ HISTORICAL OLD TREE.
One Planted on Long Island by ssna-
 tor Rufus L. King.

One Planted on Long Island by ssna-
 tor Rufus L. King.
 Perhaps the most historic tree in the vicinity of Jamaica Is that on the grounds of King manor, fin front of the east entrance, planted over a hundred years ago, 1t is believed, by Senator Rufus L. King himself. That the dis tinguished contemporary of Washing ton and Jefferson and Hamilton and brilliant defender of federal principles planted this tree with his own hands was testified to by the late Hon. John A. King, grandson of Rufus L. King, in . conversation he had on the grounds of the manor on the occasion of the transfer of the historic property to the village of Jamaica.
 John A. King. in talking with Judge Fleming at that time, pointed to this old sycamore or buttOnwood tree and remarked that his eminent grandfather had planted It. He said, 'T think I'll have plate put on the tree to perpetu. ate the fact" Whether he ever did so or not, there is no plate there at the present time.
 There are several big holes in the trunk, which have been filled in with cement to preserve it. At one time it sheltered a doghouse which stood in the hole at the bottom of the trunk. It Is related that In the days of Rufus King and his son, Governor King, there was bell on the tree, which was rung when people appeared at the gate to give notice that they stood waiting to be admitted. The tree belongs to the plane tree family. It is doubtless one of the finest specimens of this family to be found in this country.-Long Is- land Life.
