Yakima Resigned to Freight Rates

Shippers of the Yakima section are
becoming resigned to the paying Of
current freight rates for the coming
season, holding their fight against these
prohibitive rates until after the pres
ent seasons crop has been moved, or
at least 80 it would seem from the
statement Of T. f. Ryan, of Seattle.
and president of fruit company
which bears his name.
Il see no possible hope fora reduc-
ti0n in the freight rates on apples. "
says Mr.. Ryan. "All we can do is to
put our shoulders to the wheel and do
the best we can this year. We have
lots Of apples to sell and we must get
busy now. The railroads cannot grant
special privileges TO the apple men this
year for fear Of being accused of fa-
voritism. If the apple men get "A spe-
cial reduction. others will ask for it.
The only thing to do is to do the best
we can now. and try to make the road
officials understand next season.

The Volstead act, commendable as its
purposes may be, is too rigid in its APP
plication to the manufacture of cider
and other fresh fruit juices. The law
places the responsibility, even if the
juice generates higher content of al
cohol than allowed by law after it
reaches the retailer, on the manufac-
turer. This is unfair, and as a result
cider mills are not running this year.
1t is a physical impossibility to prevent
the doctoring Of fruit juices, after they
pass out Of the manufacturer hands,
and producing more alcohol than the
law allows. The law should control the
dispenser. II is likely that a large per
centage of the California raisin crop is
used in u.krg alcoholic beverages.
Applying the fo'stead act, as it is APP
piled to cider manufacture, we cannot.

WEDDINGS
VanWiCklen-G Green

Having eluded capture in the Philip
pines. China, Mexico and various othel
parts of the world, in the military ser
vice of the United States government
John II. Van Wicklen was finally made
captive by Miss Maybell Green. OF
the Upper Valley. The wedding took
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. E. H. Green,
Of Dee, and is one Of the most charm.
ing and popular young ladies of the
valley.
Mr.. Van Wicklen is we'll known
throughout army circles, having served
in the u. S. Cavalry for number of
years. Upon his return from the Phil
ippines he was detailed for border duty
in January, 1910, with the Third CaVal-
ry, to guard the ranches of the Rio
Grande district against raids by ban
dts. On July of that year the cav
alrymen were ordered to return to San
Antonio, Texas, where they were en-
tered the government farrier's school
and left at the close of the term with
the honor roll and were highly com
mended by the War Department. From
that time until April, 1917, Mr.. Van
Wicklen was on border duty with the
Third u. S. Cavalry.
When the country's National Guard
was assembled in 1916. he was detailed
as one of the riding instructors of the
lst N. Y. Cavalry, staying with them
on the border until they were ordered
to return to New York the early part
Of 1917
When the United States entered the
world war the Third u. S. Cavalry
was ordered across, but Van Wicklen
was held in the United States as in
structor, being sent to the aviation
ground school of the University Of
Texas, as sergent major of the school
as instructor of army paper work. His
next detail was instructor Of guard
duty at Kelly Field. Texas, and finally
instructor Of aviation cadets at Rock
we'll Field, San Diego. His last move
was to Oregon as assistant division ad-
julant of the S. p. ID.
Upon completion of his duties as pri-
Ority discharge officer of the division,
he esigned to enter the lumber indus
try, being at present connected with
the Oregon Lumber Co. at Dee.
Pretty tokens of esteem and congrat-
llatory messages have poured in to the
bride and groom during the past week
upon their return from their honey
moon trip. They contemplate a short
visit to the Hawaiian Islands shortly
after the Christmas holidays.

FINES THAT BOOTLEGGERS PAY

We note that federal Judge in Port
land came to the conclusion the other
day that fines didn't seem to be pre-
venting illicit traffic in liquor. Ger
tainly not They never will. The
bootlegRer pays up and goes forth to
tack an extra charge against his Gus
toners. The fining system simply adds
to the high cost of getting a drink.
But it seems that a certain percentage
Of the people will 90 the limit in money
or otherwise to get a drink of liquor.
Some of them even try sulphuric acid
and concentrated lye.
Perhaps a few stiff prison sentences
will have an effect on the vendors of
moonshine. We wonder if the men
caught here the other day and assessed
seemingly heavy fines were not pretty
well pleased with the punishment.

We are prone to bemoan our current
conditions and declare that they are
leading US to the dogs and worse But
human nature is just about the same
now as it evidenced itself 100 years
ago. Doesn't this speech Of Daniel
Webster sound very much like some of
the things we hear today:
"There are persons who constantly
clamor. They complain of oppression,
speculation and perniciOus influence Of
accumulated wealth. They cry out
loudly against all banks and corpora
tions and all means by which small
capitalists become united in sorder to
produce important and beneficial re-
suits. They carry on mad hostility
against all established institutions.
They would choke the fountain of in
dustry and dry all streams. In a coun-
try Of unbounded liberty they clamor
against oppression. In a country of
perfect equality they would move
heaven and earth against privilege and
monopoly. In country where proper
ty is more evenly divided than any
where else they rend the air shouting
agrarian doctrines. In country where
wages are high beyond parallel. they
would teach the laborer that he is but
an oppressed slave.
1t was delivered in the senate in
1888.

While '7is a3 newspaper publicity
about decline in prices have been
very misleading TO the general buying
public, o study Of local drygoods and
furniture prices shows that merchants
are making q material cut in these
lines Of goods. The local price reduc-
tions are apparently real and not the
marked-up, marked-down variety. We
believe a careful study Of them will
show the purchaser that be can get
more real value right here at home
than elsewhere. despite the alluring
copy Of far away stores. But the buy
ing public should not be impressed TOO
strongly with publicity about price de-
clines. Some lines are sure to make "a
steady decline. while others will uroba-
bly, pursue the even tenor Uf their WAYS
for some time to come.
