McLean oj Connect icut sai he will, In the approching session, press an enactment bill to avert wanton bird slaughter which he Introduced a few months ago. Polit ical quertious of many sorts were at the front at that time and prevented the consideration of his measure. As politics will hare but little place In the doings of the session which opens In December, and which lasts three months, he believes the measure will go upon the statute book this winter. There seems to be some ground for this confidence. Societies for bird protection are Increasing in number throughout the country. The virtual extinction of the wild pigeons and the shrinkage in the number of the other game birds, as well as of the smaller members ot the feathered tribe, arous es thinking people to the necessity of averting- from those which are left1 to us the fate which overtook the buf falo. Aside altogether from their val ue as food, the great game birds, and also the humbler and more familiar members of their family, have an ec onomic importance for us which Is commonly overlooked. The Depart ment of Agriculture estimates that insect pests every year destroy 10 per cent of our cereal crop and 20 per cent of our fruits. Much of these rav ages could be prevented by protect ing the birds. Some of the states are doing good work by their establishment of a closed season for shooting game. In saving the birds which are still left to us, and the killing of certain small birds is prohibited altogether in a few states. Private individuals here and there, like Mrs. Russell Sage, are buy ing out some of the big breeding places of the birds and shutting out the hunters from them. As most ot the feathered tribe, however, are mi gratory, the National Government must go to their defense If they are to be saved. ONCE MORE THE ASSASSIN. The assassination of the Spanish premier brings to the front again the virtual responsibility of protecting public men against attacks by mur derous agitators or cranks. Unlike Shrank, however, the man who as saulted CoL Roosevelt, Martin, who assassinated Senor Canalejas, seems to have been an avowed anarchist who belongs to a recognized band of these enemies ot society. These male factors are found In all countries, and their hands are against all prominent representatives of the social order. While the Milwaukee criminal waa ap parently, an ill-balanced person, the Madrid murderer had all the Intelli gence and the knowledge ot conse quences which belong to men of his order. Anarchism has a long memory. De cause Alfonso's government executed Ferrer, a leader of the Red Republi cans of Barcelona, for complicity, or alleged complicity, in a Republican demonstration In that Republican cen-1 i.o,.v in lorio iifnnnn unit hlii nrln-1 cipal ministers were marked for slaughter. Several attempts have been made to kill the king since then, and also to take the llveB of some of his cabinet, but all failed until the ablest and most powerful of them was taken off. No public man, under any form of government is Immune from assault j by these foes of the established order. ; Spain and Italy seem to have more 1 of them than any other country In J proportion to population, but all have i them. They base been less prevalent 1 In England than in other European ! nations, because England offers them ! an asylum unless they commit some overt act arainst the law, but they are i In that county too, as some attacks l -T ;t I- v ' : fA " s ' E'CSQ fij year you have systematic- money and deposited it in this institution,you can enjoy a happy Thanksgiving, be cause you have a reserve fund for emergencies something to preserve your peace of mind and prevent worry.

The late John Marshall Harlan, for nearly thirty-four years a Justice of the I'nited Stntea supreme court, left an estate valued at less than Jl.M'O. After his long life of usefulness to his fellow men that poverty Is a high er distinction than the wealth of a Rockefeller or a Carneste. It was not for lack of opportunities that Justice Harlan was poor. He came from a dis tinguished family In easy circumstan ces, his father having I'eou Attorney (ieneral of Kentucky and a lawyer of national fame. The son was a colonel in the Vnlon army, a lawyer, and coun ty Judge and also Attorney General of Kentucky. He was an unsuccessful candid tte for Congress and for Gov ernor. He waa a member of the elec toral commission In 1ST6 and was ap pointed to the Vnlted States Supreme bench the next year. At that time he was forty-four years old. Now it is apparent that aside from his Judicial service a lawyer of such prominence might easily have aninsS' ed something of a fortune before the age of forty-four, or might, that is if his bent had been for money getting From his career It may be assumed that he was a man ot such public spir it that, like Lincoln, he kept himself noor by helping his party and the principles in which he believed. After his elevation to the Supreme bench he gave more than one-third of a century to his country, that does not renumerate any of her servants suffi ciently lo enable them to grow rich. In real honor John Marshall Harlan with his $2,500 estate, shines out above any millionaire in the land. WOMEN HAVE VOICE. Mothers, you have now the right to vote your sisters can aid you. Get busy and provide the city with an ele vator to the Hill section by polling a solid vote for It You know the need for such a convenience, such a neces sity and you can win one of your first fights for women's rights in this com ing city election. The first cost will be small, the maintenance smaller, while the value is not possible to estimate when tired mothers of all ages are to be consid ered with no thought of its commer cial vaiue. New Yorkers have Just voted $50. 000,000 more for road Improvement The Empire State has made a heavy investment in permanent highways and cheerfully provides more. All con cerned see that it pays. CANBY LODGE 10 LAY TEMPLE CORNERSTONE Canby Lodge, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, Is arranging for the lay ing "of the cornerstone of the new Temple next Sunday afternoon. The ceremony will be an elaborate one, in keeping with the traditions of Odd Fellowship. The cornurstone will be fornmlly laid by the Grand Master of Oregon, and Grand Secretary Sharon will also be present The principal ad dress will be made by Judge Thomas F. Ryan, Grand Patriarch of the Odd Fellows. The members of Canby Lodge expect a large number of visi tors from near-by towns. MR. OEDS IS PAID HONOR BY RELATIVES Mrs. J. M. Olds of Twilight, enter tained at dinner la honor of Mr. Old's 7S birthday last Saturday. Only lm- i mediate relatives were present there being seventeen children and grand children. A delicious dinner was served by the hostess at . noon. A birthday cake was sent from Califor nia by Mr. Old's daughter, Mrs. C. Annan, which was very suitable for the occasion. The decorations of Ore gon grape, chrysthemiims and ferns were very beautiful. Many useful and handsome presents were received by Mr. Olds. People who complain of the weather could overcome the vain habit by a should' fhlnk how mur.n wetter lt wag wnen 0ah was on earth. When in the mood to swear because It is hot and dry W should reflect how - mucl . hotter and dried it is in the Sahara and when peeve(J hecauge it lg too cold they Bnould thank God they are not at the north pole.

STIPP EXPLAINS HALARKEY BILL PUULIC UTILITIES RATES RAI8ED SINCE JANUARY 1 MUST BE LOWERED COMMISSION 10 ACT AFTERWARD Companlts that Attempt to Inortaso Rates Subject to Prosecution, Says Law ysr OREGON CITY. Nov. IB. (Editor Morning Enterprise) Of Inte there has been considerable discussion about tho effect of tho Mulnrky Pub lic Service Act us adopted by tho peo ple of the recent elect Ion concerning existing charges for servlco of pub lic utilities. Recently the City Coun cil hail under discussion a proposition lo regulate Ihe telephone rales In Oregon City. This was discontinued, as I understand it, because (he Mill arkey Hill already regulated those rates. Section 25 of that bill contains tho follow Ing; "Rate Schedules to be Filed; Max imum Charges - Every public utility shall file wllh the Commission within a time llxcd by the Commission, schedules which shall be open to pub lie Inspection, showing nil rates, tolls and charges which It lias established and which are In force at the time for any service performed by It with in the state, or for any service in con nection therewith or performed by any public utility controlled or operated by it. The rates, tolls and charges show n on such schedules shall not ex ceed the rates, tolls and cnarges In force January 1, 1911." In Section 31 it provides Hint the rates, tolls and charges named there in l meaning In tho published sched ule) shall he lowful rates, tolls and charges until tho same are changed as provided by this act. Section 31 also provided that It shall bo unlawful for any public utility lo charge, de mand or collect any greater or less rule than that specified. Section 29 provides that no changes shall ho made after the publication of this flu dull except on ten days' notice of the Commission, but the Commission may nllow a reduction within less time than tho ton days. There are other provisions In the net which provide Hint no rates may be raised w liliout the consent ot tho Com mission and that the Commission may order a hearing before allowing the rates to lie raised. Section 77 provides that tho rates of January 1, 1911, shall govern as a maximum except us In this art provld ed, and unless tho Commission shall otherwise order, nnd that no advance over the rates of January 1, 1911, shall tie allowed until application shall be mado to the Commission. There is in tho act no where any exception which would allow a com pany now to charge more than the rates charged January 1. 1911. which rates ure to be published and after publication no rates enn be charged for the same or like servlco greater than the lowest rate charged January 1, 1911 for the same or like service From these provisions It must nec essarily follow no company will be allowed to charge more for any ser vlco of like character than the lowest charge made by the company for that service on January 1 -1911, and that where the company since raised the rates It must go back to the rates of Janunry 1, 1911 until such time ns hearing nnd permission Is given by the Commission. I am of the opinion that should any company charge more or atteupt to collect more after the passage of this act, than the lowest rnfe charged for like service on January 1, 1911. that such company woud be subject to prosecution under the terms of this act.
