How It Happened

MT. Harding would probably have protested anyhow. but again. he might not have thought of it but for the experience of his physician Marion. Ohio, who first brought to his attention the eabo- rate preparations that being made for wholesale profiteering during inauguration week.
 The physician desirous of witnessing the induction of his llustrious townsman and he wrote of the prominent hotels of Washington for reservation modest suite for that occasion. He informed in reply that the lowest price of suite would be s75O for that particular week.
 Marion is a thriving inland town but such extrav- asant hotel prices are incomprehensible its in- habitants and the physician mentioned the matter to MT. Harding who immediately protested to the com mttee inaugural arrangements against a pro- longed and lavish display. The committee deciding to accede to the wishes of the president-eect rates in Washington for inaugural week win be con- sderaby reduced. We suppose that the propri- etor who communicated to the physician the plans inaugural week banditry IS employing jsntor some other menial to kick him every morning and then join him fin against the frugality Maronites and other small town aversion robbery.

 CORDOVA, Alaska. Jan. 25-The power schooner Olga, 51 days out of UnalaslSa on a voyage to Seattle and had been given up as lost, arrived at Cordova today after a long battle with almost continuous gales in the North Pacific.
 Provisions gave out. according to the members of the crew, and for many days they were forced to subsist on dried fish. Pumps were kept working night and day to keep the water out of the engineroom.
 The Olga was barely afloat when she reached Cordova and it was said she probably would have to remain here several weeks for repairs. The ma chinery was virtually out of commits sion.
 Two reindeer which were being shipped to a Los Angeles motion pic ture company were killed and eaten by the crew after the ships provis- ions had been exhausted. Two polar bears, also consigned to the motion picture company, arrived safe.
 The Olga carried a crew of six men She left Unalaska Dec. and was not heard from again until she arrived here today. The coast guard cutter Snohomish has been searching for hel for the last week.

become a vain and expensive toy" The battleship Ohio, he pointed out, the only one we then had had cost $547Sss and those whom the waste of money is painful, groaned fin unison.
 Sumner foresaw, he said, the awakening of the people fin the not distant future when such foll, would be no more. And doubt the people were awake but they had means of acting in concert against such wild and reckless extravaganza as the building of batteships at & cost of a half million dollars each.
 Neither the people nor Sumner though could see far enough ahead to perceive that first class battle ship like the Indiana, under construction would cost about s22.0oo,OO0. that the upkeep of first class battleshp would cost from $1OOOOOo to s1 5oo 900 year. Certainly they could not foresee the time when conservative estimate of the cost of main- tainng the navy would be a billion and a half dollars year.
 Sumner though lived long enough to see much more expensive navy than the one he complained of and which he demanded should be abandoned as a mere toy, the folly of which he said the nation would soon perceive.
 And yet Sumner was of the great forward looking ma of his time. What he thought of the Future of the navy turns to have been of DO importance at all but it is interesting as showing the Limitations that have been put upon human fore sight It was tho great Webster who could see noth Ing fn the great region west of the Ohio river but bowling wilderness forever

WHY BE pIscouRAcEp7

It is common saying that Luck beats science every time" But this is the gamblers maxim the fools motto.
 "The trouble with most of us," asserts Johnston. 'is that looking for princely chance of acquiring riches, or fame worth We are dazzled by what Emerson calls the shallow Americanisr, of the day We are expecting mastery without ap- prenticeship knowledge without study and riches by credit"
 clergyman recently said to a young man who had complained of being discouraged "The new is supplanting the old everywhere. The machinery of ten years must soon be sold old iron to make room for something more efficient. The methods of our fathers daily giving place better systems Those who have devoted their lives to the cause of labor and progress are constantly falling in the ranks; and as the struggle grows intense men and women with even stronger and truer hearts are needed to take the places in the battle of life. Yet you come to and say you are dis couraged"
 Wright adds: With the world full of work that needs to be done with human nature so constituted that often a pleasant word a trifling assistance may stem tho tide Of disaster for some felIow-nnan or clear his path to success; with own faculties so arranged that in honest, earnest persistent en- deavor we find our highest good with countless noble examples to encourage to dare and to do. each moment brings to the threshold of some new opportunity Don't wait for opportunity. Make it."

Road InnIalatIon

It is too early yet to forecast the character of the highway legislation that will be enacted at the present session but 1t appears that the can be expected will be provision for matching federal aid such that proposed in the omnibus bill presented yesterday.
 The geographical scope of the bill Is expected to enlist the interest of enough senators and tatves to insure it's passage It the aims of each the special road legislation bills that have been introduced and those whose introduction expected, with the single exception. believe, of the bin approprating s15OOOO for a bridge at Pierces Ferry It Is not likely that any of these special bills standing alone could be put through except by the process of ogrolng and it might not be easy matter to bring the promoters of all of them into concert
 The question is whether the omnibus bill will satisfy each of the various sections whether the voices of the Horse Leech's daughters will be heard from many quarters creating a confusion fin which this legislation may be lost.

We voted houses Of ill-fame out years ago. Five years ago we voted out the pool halls, and the teachers in the public schools are not allowed to dance Also the folk dancing was voted out of the schools. We have two colleges. Meth odist and Lutheran. We have what is known as the college church. On prayer meeting nights we have from 200 to 300 in attendance, 90 per cent of whom are students. It is an inspi- sation to hear them testify what God has done for them
 The store on College hill is not al lowed to sell tobacco in any form. Phoenix should take temptation away from its young people as near as pos sible.

For the sake of these young people vote out all questionable places.

 Of the one hundred girls examined fourteen showed normal mental endowmnt, tweney-seven being sub-normal and ffty-nine definitely feeble-rnnded. Of the one hundred boys examined, seventeen had normal mentality thirty y-seven subnornal and forty-six were definitely feeble-minded.

 From sixty to eighty per cent of the feeble minded by virtue heredity since two feeble minded parents have only feeble minded children person is potential criminal and this is particularly true of the "moron'-the high-gr defective who passes for normal He has been credited with a degree of responsibility he does not and cannot DOS sess He has been left free to perpetuate his ire sponsibility.
 It is folly to say that we cannot afford provi- sion for the of these people. We cannot afford not to take of them
 It ss estimated that the trials and commitments of the feeble minded delnquents in Cincinnati alone cost $2.597, ASSOC in a single year.
 When we realize that feeble -mindedness is not cured by any known means, that 1t is a hereditary conultlon In the vast majority of cases; that two feeble-minded persons have only feeble-ninded children; that the families of the feeble-minded are larger than the average family, and that from the deIecuve progeny of present detectives will he recruited In large measure the paupers prostitutes ana criminals of the next generation we sec that a niggardly disposition of the matter now will saddle upon the next generation burden for whose weight we shall be justly reproached

 Dear Sir;
 Our greatest need today is a system of hard surfaced highways. While we of hte wealth. fest states st we have cement and brick roads than any other state.
 I would like to see the money that the present legislature will for the men used for the purpose of building cement roads.
 am an ex-service man myself and while will not set much money under this law some vnl receive more than great many others. will gladly fin what ia due for this enterprise.
 With the amount that we would receive from the state together with the apportonment from the fed eraI government, could build system of high ways that would be a wonderful improvement and an inestimable benefit and saving to all
 If the money Is paid to 1t will soon be spent, with slight material benefit and will all be taxed to help pay for what get It win be like taking 1t out of one pocket and putting 1t into another How much better 1t would be to this money for permanent roads.
 The people. by the election last November made it clear that they thought we were entitled to this money Now let us show the people of state that we arc patriotic and big enough to forego a few personal pleasures that this money win afford and do something of which and posterity will al- ways be proud. Don't let us give anyone an oppor- tunity Co cay that we always have hand out
 Yours truly,
