BEAR TRAPS FOR BURGLARS
Brooklyn Man eraved Consequences
Of WeIl-known Old Adass, win
Gratifying Result.

A Mr.. Cogan of the Williamsburg
section Of Brooklyn, after being v1s-
tied by burglars ten times, decided to
depend no longer on Commissioners
Enrlght. He set a bear trap inside o
window Of his home and caught bur-
glar In 1t, the New York Herald
states.s
That burglar, 1t may easily be imaGs
ined, will never try housebreaking
again. 1t is one thing to get caught
at the crime In the ordinary way, to
be taken to a comfortable police sta
tion, to be released on bail easily
jumped, to be convicted even. and
sent to prison where there are good
food and motion pictures. But It 10
quite another thing for the criminal
to feel the iron Jaws Of bear trap
close on his leg. A bear trap does not
coddle or release on bond.
Unfortunately. every householder
cannot safely set bear trap for
burglars. He might accidentally catch
himself or his wife or the children or
the dog. 1t It were not for that the
whole town might well turn trapper.

LAUGHS AT PASSING YEARS
Veteran NInety-ons Years Young
Rightly an Inspiration to Those
Who Know Him.

Comrade Searles from the Soldiers
home at Sawtelle was over at San
Gabriel the other day. He came by
way Of the trolley car. But he could
have walked easily, had he been 90
minded.
Seventy years ago, Comrade Searles
used often to pass the old mission
of San Gabriel when the padres and
the Indians were still there. Sixty
years ago he carried a musket on his
shoulder in the Civil war. He Is now
ninety-one years young.
And so he came back to this old
haunt of his the other day. We found
him sitting In the sun by the side OF
the kings highway making sketches.
He drew fascinating pictures Of the
incomparably beautiful old campanilo
of the mission whose bells rang out
their messages Of peace and faith
long before the Liberty bell In the
tower of the state house In Philadel-
phla rang out Its dsathless message
In 1776. And he also sketched the old
stairway of the mission whose stones
are worn with the feet Of countless
Indian neophytes since 1t was builded,
century and half ago. And fine
sketch, too, of the Old Grapevine which
is the mother of all the vineyards In
California.
And we thought 1t delightful expe-
rience to have had. 1t isn't every day
that one meets man ninety-two years
of age who Is still as spry as a steel
rod, and whose mind retains all ies
magical faculties. II was inspiring.
We were proud to lift our hand to
our eyebrow and stand at salute be-

BOOSTED INTO THE SENATE

Lynn j. Frazier OF North Dakota
must indulge in an ironical smile
these days when he thinks of the
discomforture of his political enc
mics. They fired" him from the
gubernatorial chair and apparently
have boosted him into the United
States senate.
Frazier has not changed since he
was governor, and his election car
not be charged to a change of heart
on the part of the people of North
Dakota. Frazier did not win be-
cause of his own strength, but be-
cause of McCumber's weakness.
People outside of North Dakota
will not understand the outcome
There will be many false deductions
drawn from this apparent revival
of Non Partisan strength.
The facts are that Porter ]. Nc
Cumber was the political creation
of Alex Mckenzie, the notorious
boss of North Dakota in the decade
that has passed. His first election
was the result of one of the shrewd-
est pieces of political manipulation
that ever marred the history of a
commonwealth. His defeat of John
son of Minot left political scar
that never healed. But that is not
all that initiated to McCumber's s
downfall. During the years Of Bit
ter struggle between the Non Par
tisans and the l. V. A., as their op-
ponents are called, McCumber never
took an out and ont stand against
the Non Partisans. He could not,
for the Non Partisans were being
ably directed by Alex Mckenzie
from behind the scenes land McCum-
ber was McKenzie's protege. These
are the facts in the case, and being
SO, how could the l. V. A. leaders
have much enthusiasm for McCum-
ber? With them it was a case OF
lose either way. This is substan-
tiated by the fact that Nestos, the
out and out opponent of the league
was returned winner for the gov
in the same election in
which McCumber lost. When all is
said and done McCumber has gone
the way of all men who failed to
manifest courage of their convictions
and tried to play politics and dis
regard principles.

The bureau Of the census counted
the telephones on the farms in the
United States on January 1, 1920, and
found 2,608,002 Of them. In other
countries, except Canada, a telephone

ritory Of Italy, including the great

THE UNION PACIFIC Is RIGHT

In view Of the controversy that
has arisen over the railroad owner
ship resulting from the mergering
of the Central Pacific and the South
ern Pacific by the United States Su-
preme Court decision 1t is time that
the people of Eastern Oregon awake
| to the menace to their interest and
development which Is impending.
Oregon does not want the South
ern Pacific to become the dominant
factor, for the Southern Pacific in
terests generally predominant in
California and not in Oregon, and
therefore this state stands to lose
with It's destiny left in the hands Of
men whose interests lie in natur-
ally competitive territory.
It is significant that the develop
ment of Oregon railroads started
with the rise of the Uuion Pacific
to the dominant place in the Harri-
man group of lines, and ended with
the passing of the Union Pacific's
power into the hands of the South
ern Pacific in 1912.
The people of this section have
long known that the building OF a
railroad from Crane to Odell juno
ton and there connecting with Ma
tron cutroff has been delayed be-
cause II would then be possible to
route through freight from the low
er Willamette Valley to the middle
west over lines largely in control OF
the Union Pacific, while at present
It is possible for the Southern Pa
cific to carry this freight down
through California and across to
New Orleans. and the Southern
Pacific get the long haul and all OF
the resulting revenue. This is
where the conflict of interest has
injured Oregon, It does the same
thing now to Nevada and Utah by
diverting freight that should go
through the Ogden gateway to the
Southern route for the identical
reason.
The decision of the Supreme
court is good law and justice. 1t
itself to the reasoning
that competition in the big traffic
producing sections is desirable. and
Il should be upheld. 1t is signift-
can't that the propaganda depart

should be sending out editorials
from the Salem Capital Journal and
the Eugene guard which apparently
have sought to befog the issue In
their desire to attack Portland. Yet

Guard both desire that which East

ALL ONE SIDED

There is one outstanding condition
which impresses anyone who makes
trip to the Central West and visits
the cities, especially Chicago this
summer. That is the tremendous
growth which is manifested in the
centers of population. Especially
is this true of metropolis of the
Middle West.
Never in its history, visitor is
told; and there is ample evidence on
every hand to substantiate the state
ment; has there been such build
boom known in that superlatively
active community. The building
permits for May, 1922 passed all OF
the city's previously high records
Thousands of people are flocking to
the big town to exist-no doubt they
think to live.
What does this all mean? Fig
ures fail to tell the story. One can
not say that this nation is hard up
after observing even for a short
time the pace at which the millions
in the city go. Go is the word, for
they apparently stay nowhere. To
see the lavish expenditure of wealth
In automobiles; to observe the SER
ial numbers on the license plates Is
added evidence of the billions of dol
lars that have been diverted from
actual necessities to be spent in
means of enjoyment. 1t compels
the belief that there is more
wealth in America than is actually
needed. But 1t also compels the
belief that there is a sad injustice
being done in the method of distri
button. Too much is centered in
the cities.
There is an astounding contrast
manifested in the country. While
thousands upon thousands of build
ings are being erected in the cities
where rents for modest apartments
run from $50 per month upward to
staggering figures; apparently there
is little improvement being. re-
corded on the land from which
comes the food that the millions of
city dwellers live upon. The in
creasing number of city dwellers is
creating an increasing demand on
the productivity of the soil, but ap-
parently this demand is bringing
small profit to the grower who is
barely holding his own, for he is not
adding new barns, new homes and
other betterments to his place.
But there is another side of the
picture. There must come time,
when the farmer realizes his possi-
bilities, when he will demand a Just
share In the increased prosperity of
the nation. He, cannot always be
expected to stay home and furnish
the food without getting fair re-
turn. The growing cities are grow
ing markets for farm products. The
possibilities for agricultural ex-
pansion are infinite. When the
system of Just marketing conditions

colorads's Population Growing


Tentative estimates made by the
State Immigration Department,
based upon reports of county as
SCISSORS and other data place the
pfesent population OF Colorado at
approximately g92 600, cmpared with
9S9,629 reported by the federal CEN
sus bureau for January !. 1920.
Tie increase apparently has been
larger In the city of Denver than
in any other section OF the state.
Reports OF the municipal water
company and of the Telephone and
gas and light companies show large
increases here in the number OF SER
vice connections made in the past
tso wears, the result of an extern
sive building campaign. Somewhat

irrigated sections of eastern Colora-
do in the past three years, though
few local district that have suf-
iered crop failures have less land
under cultivation now than they
did four wears ago and hava lost

most notable increases in farm

have been in the southeastern part
OF the state Agricultural develop

lies than elsewhere In the state,
but not so rapid as during the two
On three years immediately preced-
ing tho last federal census report.
Tie growth of the states popula-
tion depends very large upon airi-
cultural development. The metal
mines Of the state have produced
less in, 1922 then in 1919, while the
coal production OF the state this
year will perhaps be 2,500,0OO short
Of the high production of 1917, The
cash value of the output viii per
haps be about the same or only
slightly less. But the acreage OF
land under cultivation and the
number of farms being operated
has increased slightly each year.
Present Indications point to a
somewhat larger movement OF far
