ANOTHER DEADLY WAR MACHINE

Mrs Kathryn NJ Stanton of Michigan claims to have
invented gun which discounts any and everything
heretofore thought Of in the shooting iron line. She
claims it uses no explosives but that it will in spite of
this, throw projectie six miles with higher initial
velocity than the best gun made She gives descrip-
ton of it, but insists it has been tested by military
thores and pronounced absolutely the greatest in
strument ever devised for the destruction of enemy
Patents pending the lady says which is the cause
of her ecence and besides she is patriotic and wants
the secret retained by the American government.
1t is claimed this gum device whatever it is, can
throw any old thing well bullets being adept at
firing dornicks as left handed school boy with red hair
and a face full Of freckles
The fact that it can throw eggs without breaking
them until they arrive is its most astounding feature
and perhaps its most deadly 1t would make market
for the ancient eggs while making death welcome even

OUTLOOK FOR SALEM IS BRIGHT

Last year Salem and the Willamette valley were hard
hit by the failure of the prune crop and the low price of
hops. AS the valley the Salem section of it. at least
depended largely these crops there was rather hard
The growers did not have the money and those
who earn many dollars in the prune orchards and hop
fields had their incomes cut off.
Of course this was felt in all lines of business This
year the outlook is most favorable for both crops The
frost that did such damage in other fruit sections passed
by The prune growers say the outlook for number
crop better; and prices high and will
remain that way for time they should have the
most prosperous season in years.
There is demand for prunes that cannot be supplied
Idaho which usually sends million two dollars worth
of green prunes to the eastern markets. will send none
this year because the frost took practically the entire
crop So in northern California But little if any dam
age done in Oregon which can boast still more loud
y of her climate when the state where sunshine and
climate is of the largest assets loses millions from
frost that we nearly thousand miles further north
escaped.
The outlook for bumper crop of hops is also good
and prices have picked up and the market become
stronger the owners of hopfeds smiling and hope
full With both these crops good and prices fair Salem
will have an unusually good year.

Senator Cummins Speaks
To Fair Sized Audience

Senator Cummins, Iowa's favorite
son, was greeted by a fairly good
house, when he appeared at the armory
Saturday night That the house was
not larger was not perhaps due to the
senator; for political speeches of all
parties have become a drug in the mar
ket and have not the magnetic attrac-
tive power of the movies, even though
cheaper
Senator Cummins' argument was of
the negative kind, his talk being de-
voted largely to calling attention to
the things Wilson has, or has not, done
The senator has pleasant address
his years in public life giving him poise
and self confidence and he pleased his
audience perhaps as much as could be
done by anyone with politics as sub
iect. He spoke in Portland yesterday
and today motored to Hood River over
the Columbia highway.
