Another Alleged "Consump-
ton Cure.

One of the SaddeSt things we know
of is the perennial announcement by
some faker or some over-enthuSiaStic
student that "a cure has at last been
discovered for consumption" They
all turn out bad. Not that we would
not hail with delight a true cure, or
that we would even hint TO the Scien-
fists that they halt their quest for a
cure. But these fake announcements
raise hopes in millions of sufferers,
and their friends and relatives, that
are doomed to disappointment.
Now We have a cable from Paris
that a cure for tuberculosis has been
discovered in that city. We hope it
is the real goods, but the chances
are that it is not the hoped-for cure.
Everybody's heart goes out to
those who are battling the dreaded
white plague. These people are real
hghters-real heroes. They never
give up until the enemy takes its toll.
Our advice TO the tubercular and
their friends is to continue to follow
the instructions of their physicians,
Do what your doctor says, get all the
fresh air possible do not overdo, rest
as much as possible, don't worry.
And fight on-and on.

The Growing Canker in
America.

Are YOU paying any attention tC
the immigration situation? Do YOU
know that nine-tsuthS of the BolShe.
wiki and anarchists in the United
States can hardly speak English,
have hardly any knowledge of this
country beyond the region that their
legs and eyes and ears take them?
Ellis Island is the New York entry
point Of most of the immigrants.
When they land they find beautiful
buildings all ready for their recep-
ton, These buildings are kept spot
leSSly clean. There are Fairgrounds
for the children, a nursery for the
smaller ones, nurses and doctors for
the sick and a magnificent hospital
for those that need it.
Despite this welcome, the minute
they land on the mainland from the
Ellis Island paradise they receive
and imbibe the poison Of anarchy
and revolution" Before they have
gone a block each one has been Civ
en- a pamphlet or card, printed in a
half-dozen languages, containing the
following statements:

is a clpHaLiStic Government. Re-
member it is / dirty and rotten Cop

ciety and help Us 0perthrow this

Here are hundreds of thousands of
simple minds arriving every year AMI
receiving this creed as the first In
preston to tuck away in their brains.
Simple minds that know nothing
about America or Americans. Is it
to be wondered at if they join a reyo-
lutionay society where they will
thereafter hear nothing else but the
foregoing sentiments elaborated up
on and dilated upon in season and
out Of season? And so hearing be-
come dangerous?
The question is: Will American
citizens who know better allow this
canker to grow in their midst until it
overvhelms them?

Recall for the Public Service
Commission.

Active steps toward the recall Of
the public service commission are
being taken in Portland. Only one
commissioner is subject to recall at
present but the two other members
may be recalled, if the people desire,
after a lapse Of six months.
Resentment toward the commits
sion grows OUT Of a series of acts BIZ
the commission but is chiefly found
ed on the ruling Of the commission
in favor Of the heavy increase in tel
eprone rates. At a time when other
prices are falling and an unemploy-
ment situation confronts the state the
commission has authorized the phone
company TO advance rates an aver
age of 80 per cent or more. In some
instances the increase has been 100
per cent, il is claimed.
All this in the face Of an audited
report by the Bell system showing
that its net profits for last year were
the largest in history, being over
S50,000,000 after taking off some
SOS 900 900 for depreciation and the
further showing that telephone stock
is far stronger in the market than
railroad stock or other industrial
stocks or even liberty bonds.
In the judgment of this newspaper
the public service commission acted
very incompetently in the telephone
case. This view may be entirely
wrong but why in the name of com
mon sense does a utility corporation
that has Just finished a most glo-
rious financial year need a rate boost
at a time when labor and material
costs are declining?
As TO the recall that is a weapon
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1921-03-17

to be used with caution it is true, yet
the recall was adopted so as to give
the public the opportunity to replace
4 servant who is believed TO be in
competent or unfaithful. If it is the
judgment Of the public that our COM
miSSioners are in this category the
plain and obvious course is to remove
them, If a mar is not doing his duty
the sooner he is dismissed the better.
This applies in private business and
it is equally true in public life.-Pen-
dleton East Oregonian.

The news of the instant death of an old acquaintance and the injury of others of the party in an automobile accident that is said to be the worst that Kent vile has known was received here by Mrs. Leo Mccormack from her former home in Kentville, Nova Scotia, this week. The dead man was one of the popular young men of Kentville and had been prominent in baseball cir cles. Speedy driving and a fail ure to negotiate a bend in the road safely caused the accident. The ear was smashed and the crank completely embedded in a stout elm tree, showing that it must have been travelling at a terrific speed. Of the others in the party, one may die, one is seriously injured and two are hurt in a lesser degree.

Wrangell School Gets Second Place in Alaska
 In Intelligence Test

In the tests given the gradu- ating classes of '21 in the seven high schools of the Territory, Skagway, with two pupils in the class won first place and Wrangell, also having a class of two, won second place. According to the School Bulletin, published by the Territorial Commissioners office, Wrangell was an easy winner un- til it came to the Standardized Si- lent Reading tests in both of which the class fell to seventh place. Wrangell tied with Skag- way for first place in two arith- metic tests and the grammar test; took first place in the third arithmetic test, in history, and in the Trabue Language Scale and made a very fine showing. The rank of the seven schools in the tests is as follows: Skagway, two in class, 1; Wrangell, two pu- pills, 2; Fairbanks, three pupils, 3; Anchorage. 5 pupils, 4; Juneau, eleven pupils, 5; Ketchikan, six pupils, 6, and Douglas, four pu- pills, '. All the test papers were graded in the Commissioners office to assure unanimity in gra- ding and tabulation. The tests given to the elementary grades will be tabulated later.

Canadian Pacific to Have New Boat
 On Alaska Route

Anew Canadian Pacific steamer for the Vancouver -Skagway run was launched at Vancouver on Monday, August 29. It was named the Princess Louise in honor of the first Canadian Paci- fic steamer operated on the Paci- fic Coast, and is entirely British Columbia product. She will be the queen of the coastwise fleet in tonnage and second in length. the Princess Charlotte being longer. She is of steel, 420O gross tons, 330 feet long over all, BIT B. F., with a beam of AS feet, and a depth of 18.6 feet. She will be an economical fuel con- sumer, having a single screw, and engines of 4500 h. D.. and she will make about 17.5 knots. Her specifications call for 16 knots but it is expected she will exceed them, as she has been built with very fine lines. Her furnaces are arranged to burn oil but are easily converted for coal burning.
 The Louise will be luxurious in all her appointments. She will have rooms for 300 passengers, including A seconds, and a cargo space for 600 tons. There will be hot and cold water in all the staterooms and the lighting will be exceptionally fine. A dance floor and a sun parlor are attrac- tive features.
 The Louise will come north next spring to take the place of the Princess Royal and the coast cities of Southeastern Alaska will be assured of service by a boat that is second to none on the Pacific Coast.

 By Local People

The Zillah May. sunk off Strait Island on the evening of March 31, was lowed into port Monday night and is lying in the harbor awaiting further attention from the local men who undertook to raise her. It will not be decided definitely what will be done with her until an examination reveals just what shape she is in.
 The men who were instrument tai in raising her were Chas. Ben jamin, Heinie Heinbockel and Charlie Lynch. They have been at work at the scene of the wreck for several weeks and had a diver from Jeaneau assisting them at first.
 The Zillah May, held afloat by logs and air drums, her masts above water, was lowed in by the Sunland. assisted by the Vivian June for the last leg of the journey. The trip in began Fri day night. She required q depth of 20 feet of water and except for delays caused by the tide, the journey was continuous night and day. Her owners are the Pacific Fishing and Trading Company.
