- t.s.1 zlic55 was the tins ~ the n1iIl:
ing animals. 1t was then that they
came out of their lairs and bounced
upon one from the dark wherein they
lurked invisible
Possibly it was out of this fear Of
the real denizens of the dark that the
fear of the unreal deniZens was later
TO develop and eliminate in a whole
and mighty unseen world. AS imagi-
nation grew it is likely that the fear
of death increased until the folk that
were to come projected this fear into
the dark and peOpled it with spirits.
| think the Fire People had already
begun to be afraid of the dark in this
fashion. but the reasons we folk had
for breaking up our hee-hee councils
and fleeing to our holes were old Sa-
Der Tooth. the lions and the jackals,
the wild dogs and the wolves, and all
the hungry, meat eating breeds.
Lop Ear got married. 1t was the
second winter after our adventure jour
ney, and it was most unexpected. He
gave me no warning. The first | knew
was one tWi. ght when / climbed the
cliff to our cave. l squeezed into the
entrance and there l stopped. There
was no room for me. LOp Ear and
his mate were in possession, and she
was none other than my sister, the
daughter of my stepfather, the Chat
terer.
I tried to force my way in. There
was space only for two, and that
space was already occupied Also,
they had me at a disadvantage, and,
what with the scratching and hair pull
ing received, l was glad to retreat.
slept that night, and for many nights,
in the connecting passage of the dou-
BILE cave From my experience it
seemed reasonably safe. AS the two
folk had lodged old Saber Tooth,
and as 1 had lodged Red Eye, so it
seemed to me that 1 could dodge the
hunting animals by going back and
forth between the two caves.
l had forgotten the wild dogs. They
were small enough to go through any
passage that / could squeeze through.
One night they nosed me out. Had
they entered both caves at the same
time they would have got me. AS it
was, followed by some of them through
the passage 1 dashed out the mouth
of the other cave. Outside were the
rest of the wild dogs. They sprang for
me as l sprang for the cliff wall and
began to climb. One of them, lean
and hungry brute, caught me in mid
leap His teeth sank into my thigh
muscles and he nearly dragged me
back. He held on, but l made no effort
to dislodge him, devoting my whole
effort TO climbing out Of reach of the
rest of the bruteS.
Not until l was safe from them did
1 turn my attention to that live agony
on my thigh. And then, dozen feet
above the swapping pack that leaped
and scrambled against the wall and
fell back, 1 got the dog by the throat
and slowly throttled him. l was long
time doing it. He clawed and ripped
my hair and hide with his hind paws,
and ever he Jerked and lunged with
his weight to drag me from the wall.
At last his teeth opened and released
my torn flesh. l carried his body up
the cliff with me and perched out the

OTHERS OPINIONS


In these pages from time to time
we have advocated the value to our
readers of county and state fairs
Exhibits of livestock, grain and other
products of the farm, will contest for
YOUR interest, as well as exhibits OF
farm, dairy machinery, ineubators'
building material concerns and other
things that are manufactured in fac
tories and sold to the farmer.
None of these exhibits enumerated
above should be passed by without
giving careful study to them. Find
out the owners of prize-winning live
stock, learn how they perfected their
animals, how they fed and cared fol
them. Don't fail to get full intorma-
ton as to the methods used by the
prize winners who exhibit chickens
or butter, or fruit, or grain, or Other
things. Such information will be val,

ING these exhibits are advertising
their products, their skill and thel
knowledge about it, by exhibiting at
the fair. The same is true with ma
chinery, grain and other exhibits. The
mere fact that an exhibitor is willing

that is better than the ordinary.

wooING THE WOMEN VOTERS.

In eleven western states women
will vote this year on an equal foot
ing with the men. while in Illinois
they will be entitled to vote for pres
idential tickets, but debarred from
taking part in the strictly state cleo
tions. In these twelve states it Is
estimated there are at least 4,OOO,OOO
women who are qualified to vote, and
both parties are making strenuous
efforts to secure as many of these wo-
men votes as possible. Both sides
have prepared campaign literature in
tended especially for the women, both
are planning to include certain fea-
tures in the campaign calculated to
attract the support of the women.
and the republicans have arranged
for a "woman's transcontinental suf-
frage speeial train." which will car
nv a score or more of well known
women speakers and will visit all the
suffrage states in turn, for the pur-
nose of winning women's votes for
the Hughes and Fairbanks ticket.
In these suffrage states it is per
fectly plain that the women easily
could decide the election results
should they unite in force for any one
ticket. and in all likelihood, the wO-

State Commission Authorizes $150C
Expenditure on the Work.

An order for a survey of that part
of the proposed capital highway be-
tween Independence and Corvallis
was made by the state highway com
mission at Salem Tuesday.
The commission authorized State
Engineer Lewis to eXpend not more
than $500 of state highway funds
as the states share of the survey. II.
Hirschberg of Independence assured
the highway commission that he
would be responsible for enough more
funds to complete the survey, prob
ably about $500.
Julius Meier of Portland expressed
his willingness to let the money be
diverted from the Willamette valley

TEN MONTHS WILL END WAR?

1t is matter of some interest to
note that General Brusiloff, com
mander of the Russian forces on the
southern front, thinks that ten more
monAls of fighting will bring the
great European war to Il close. Gen
eral Brusiloff modestly admits he is
no prophet and that "the future is
in the hands of God" but he says
that if he were forced to make a
guess he would be inclined to set Au-
gust, 1917. as the approximate date
for the ending of the war and the
restoration of peace.
The view thus expressed seems to
fairly coincide with the opinions of
number of other leaders and eX-
perts who recently have chanced
guesses as to the probable ending
of the terrible struggle. Early in
the present year a few of these lead
ers apparently hoped for termina-
ton of the strife before the close of
1916. but more recently every predic-
tion made has been for at least anoth-
er year of the war. Even in Ger
many and Austria representative
spokesman have ceased to talk of an
early peace. but insist those nations
will continue to fight to tlie last and
that their hopes of final success are
undiminished. And among the allies
there are unmistakable evidences that
leaders and people have settled down
for a long struggle, and now believe
it will last for another year.
Even ten more months of war will
be ten months too many, but there
will be a certain amount of eonsola-
tion. to the outside world, if not to
the belligerents themselves. if there
is fair assurance that the mighty
conflict will end even by that time. No
doubt these comoing ten months will
witness a desperate effort to bring
about the fulfllment of this predie-
ton. and the losses and suffering
which will be incurred may be ex-
pected to reach a climax that will
overshadow all that has gone before.
But all things must have an end-ev-
en- war-and the world will eagerly
hope that the promised end of the
present conflict will come not later
than the date predicted by General
Brusilof.

men will actually decide the issue IN
several of the states referred to. 1t
is anticipated, however, that only a
small portion of the qualified women
voters will actually exercise thear
perogative, and this fact adds to the
perplexity of the male politicians
who are trying to figure out the prob
able results. For once, however, the
men are interested in "getting OUT
the women voters and inducing them
to take a hand in selecting a presl-
dent And as both sides will vigor-
ously push this effort, the chances
are the vote polled by the women
this year will be surprisingly large
and may also occasion some startling
surprises in the returns.
