Liberty Neighborhood
May Have Electric Lights

The people at Liberty and the Liber.
tyneighborhood are on fair way 10
have electric service. At meeting
held last evening $2050 was subscribed
to be used in the erection of poles and
wires and other service. 1t will require
a total Of $4,000 and it is expected that
this will BE subscribed within few
days and the work Of putting up the
service begin at once.
Last night 20 men signed up for the
service and this includes number who
are interested in the large prune dryers
in the Liberty neighborhood where cleo
tric service is wanted for lighting prune
dryers. running fans, pumping as well
as for domestic service.
While the expense of putting in the
line is at first paid for by the Liberty
people the contract provides that
"there will be refunded by the Port
land Railway Light & Power company
to the consumer, in annual installments
a sum equivalent to that amount by
which the revenue derived from the
services to the additional consumers ex'
ceeds the standard tariff minimum
charges applicable to such services"
All of which is merely tangled up
legal way of saying that the Portland
Railway Light 6 Power company will
gradually pay back to the consumers the
money they first subscribed until at the
end of five years, all money will have
been refunded.

EDUCATED HORSE

Big Special Act At The Bligh
Theatre.

For the little people and the grown
ups, too, there is feature which is
already causing many parents to plan
parties for their little ones and their
friends for the remainder of the week.
This is Don FuAno, the wonder horse,
the most amazing animal who has been
here in years. This is a magnificent
black horse and every movement be-
tokens unusual intelligence. He adds,
subtracts, shines shoes, brushes coats,
raises curtains. and does innumerable
other things supposedly outside of the
knowledge of any animal, and does
them all without more than a simple
request from his master.
And the evident love of the master
for horse and horse for master is one
of the best features of the act. Ev-
erybody, whether they are animal low.
ers or not viii want to see this wondek
full horse. He will be here for two more
days, today and tomorrow at the bligh

Trading In Market Today
Was Somewhat Lighter

New York, March 10. The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
says:
Trading today was again somewhat
lighter and prices, while they. did not
recede in any degree from the Tues
day closing level, were highly irregular,
giving a spotty appearance to the list
as q whole. Bullish sentiment still out
weighed bearish sentiment. There was
little positive character to price move
ments today. Some of the steels were
well bought and there was good adj
vance made by the shipping and kindred
stocks.
AS usual there was no little strength
among the specialties. The sugar, oil
and chemical groups made a good show
ing. There were one or two strnog spots
among the rails, particularly Reading
and Texas Pacific, but there was no
great initiative interest manifest in
tlat department.

USE CoCoANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

x = X X : X X X X X * X X X
If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful. Just plain mulsified CO.
coanut oil (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One rtwo teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rims
es out easily, and removes every parti-
Gle of dust, dirt, dandruff and exees-
sive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months

Facing Both Ways

From the Newark Evening News.
"We had all to gain and nothing to
lose to at least have submitted it to
them" So said Senator Edge i n
speaking of the defeat of the Peace
Treaty thru the refusal of the Demo-
Gratis to accept the Lodge reservations
the "them" meaning u associates
in war. Mr.. Edge reiterated his pro-
fessed desire for a League of Nations
with Americas sovereignty properly"
protected, but not only this latest
statement of the junior New Jersey
Senator, but all of his outgivings
Justify the opinion that he has been
trying to face both ways on the sub
iect. That belief is strengthened
rather than weakened by the fact that
he voted against the Lodge amend
ments, while at the same time declar-
ing no reservation could be too strong
for him. And now 1--WE had all to
gain and nothing to lose" by trying to
foster the Lodge idea of a League OF
Nations upon our associates in the
war! Is there any better example of
narrow parochialism than that! Bet
ter no league at all than a league con-
ceived in that spirit. Mr.. Edge may
be a practical business man, in the
materialistic sense, but so far as con-
Germs any conception of the ideal of
service he gives evidence that he
doesn't possess it.
The Penn's Grove record., 1919-12-12
The Official Vote

Official report of he State Board of
Canvassers, filed with the Secretary of
State, shows that Senate Edward L.
Edwards was elected Governor of New
Jersey by a plurality of $3.50 over
State Comptroller Newton A. K. Bug
bee. The total vote given Senator Ed
wards was PIT, 1886, while that received
by his Republican opponent was 202,-
976. The combined vote of other can
didates for Governor totaled 21,592.
OF this number, Lane, National Prohi-
b%itionist, received 6,0S9; Dittenfoss,
Single Tax, 1,246; Farr, Socialist, 11,O14,
and Butterworth, Socialist-Labor, 3,243.
The report of the average Assembly
vote shows that the total Republican
vote was 20S,5S9,, while that of the
Democratic party was 1862. The Re-
publican plurality was 3O.927. OF the
other parties, the Socialist polled the
largest vote, receiving 16,340. The Sin
gle Tax party's candidate received
3,417 votes in Assembly contests thru
out the State, and the National Prohi-
bitionists were low with 1928.

Your Coal Rations

Thousands of coal miners are on a
strike for a Al hour week and 60 per
cent. raise in wages. They have been
earning more than ever before and
can live on what they earn three or
four DAYS a week. Consequently they
have no ambition to continue to york
and accumulate a competency.
The Government has had to take a
hand. An increase of IA per cent. has
been granted, but they are slow in re-
turning to work as long as their
union bosses are resolved to paralyze
industry and freeze humanity.
Union labor in the United States
never united in a greater conspiracy
and no other has equaled it but the
German conspiracy to rule the world
and kill all who opposed 1t.
If a few hi~gh-salaried labor leaders
were strung up to lamp posts 1t would
be the best example to treat them.
The capitalists, owners of coal
mines, railroads and industries v
practiced such a heartless conspiracy
at the beginning of winter.
MANY trains have been stopped and
MANY Industries have had to shut
down all or part time because the soft
coal miners have refused to dig coal:
AS they have refused to furnish fuel
for others, they should not be fur.
nished with the products of others
labor.
Their wages have advanced with
the price of coal. Part time miners
have earned 5000 a month and full
time S240 a month. So you see they
need a vacation until they get an
empty belly. The striking printers IN
New York got it in six weeks. The
striking miners may get it ooner
Your coal rations are caused by the
conspiracy of union labor to hold-up
in dark highway fashion all others by
freezing them. All not in their union
are to be robbed or frozen. Why
should they be allowed to buy food If
they will not sell coal with their
labor?
Happily the parties came to terms
on Wednesday and it is hoped the
slackers will return to work.

High Mark In Pensions

A record-breaking sum in pensions
was paid by the federal government
during the last fiscal year although the
number of pensioners was the smallest
of any year since 1890.
This was revealed by the nnua1 re-
port of the commissioner of pensions.
who said 1922. 1923. 292.75 was paid to
624,4 2 persons during the year as COM
pared with $179,835,328.75 to 646,S95
pensioners the year before.
Total pensions paid to date on ac-
count of the civil war, the commits
stone said, were 1929, S59,50s-3s, and
the total on account of all wars $5,-
GIT, $50, 402. 80, including $65,211 ,665.71
on account of the Spamish-American
war.
Ohio led the States with the largest
roll, there being 60,902 pensioners
drawing $751; S2. $1,000. Pennsylvania
was second with 59,072 pensioners
drawing $20,530,813.44.

Germany has decided not to sign the
protocol, which binds that. nation to
carry out the obligations in the Peace
Treaty. That is the result of the U.
S Senate refusing to approve the
Treaty and show that the United
States with our physical and moral
support does not back other nations
in peace as we did in war. No price
was too great for the Allies to win
the Germany considers no price
too great to buy politicians in the
United States to keep from serving
her sentence. What did the service
men fight for? To let the greatest
criminals in all the ages go free?
