The cam paign against the high cost of living haa not been unsuccessful and al though no general lower level of prices to the consumer has been reached there has been tendency ln many lines toward such a level, Attorney-General Palmer declared in an address before the Kansas Demo cratic blub tonight. That more pronounced results have not been realized in coping with the living cost problem and many others confronting the country as a result of the war, Mr. Palmer attributed to what he considered a lack of co-operJ grange at ation between the legislative and exe cutive branches ot the government. "It can no longer be denied," he said, 'tbat the executive branch of the government has been handicapped by a hostile and barren congress. Not cnly has it refused to support the president, but it has failed to offer any plans of its own. He cited recommendations of Pres ident Wilson concerning living costs and taxes and ddeclared all of them had been ignored. "In view of the abdication of ail re sponsibility by the congress, because dominated by a political party hostile to the administration, the wonder is not that we have done so little but that we have accomplished so much, lie said.

Mrs. nankins Viscount Bryce. former ambassador -2? llF0JJlDi of a. series of functions in connec tion with the tercentennial of the I Mayflower's sailing-. Strong- opposition to any affilia tion between the grange and the land and labor party, the nbn-partisan league, or any other partisan organic ration, and the criticism of any state grange officials who "have put other and partisan interests above the wel fare of the grange," are expressed in a resolution adopted recently by the Russellville grange. The resolution is in a similar vein to that passed January 13 by the Evening Star Gresham, in which the Gresham organization declared itself as "unalterably opposed to linking in any way the grange with any others in the formation or fostering of any political party.' The resolution as adopted by the Russellville grange follows: Whereas. Efforts are being made to af filiate the granges of Oregon with the triple alliance, as promulgated in Oregon under the name of the "land and labor party"; and Whereas, Certain officials of the Oregon State Grange have interested themselves in the organization of the land and labor party and have been appointed on active committees thereof ; and Whereas, The National Grange, at the time of its organisation, as cited in its declaration of principles, maintains that the grange shall not Indorse political par ties, and the National Grange, just re cently ln session at Grand Rapids, Mich., refused to enter into conference with the National Federation of Labor, showing that the National Grange still maintains its original declaration of purposes; and whereas, The Oregon State Grange, in session at Salem in June, 1918, in reply to Non-Partisan league agitation, went on record as being opposed to affiliation or indorsement of any political party 01 league whatsoever: and Whereas, Without regard to this expres sion of the State Grange's accredited dele gates, certain officials of the State Grange c- x it. r I nave advocated at grange meetings and Mother Supports Little Ones When in the State Grange Bulletin propaganda intended to defend and assist the Non FATHER TAKES TWO CIS CHILDREX AXD PAREXT SOW OX WAY TO SAX FRAXCISCOl to the United States, proposing the toast, "Success to the tercentenary celebrations," said the occasion will be celebrated in America and Hol land and he hoped it would be cele brated "no less heartily in England. He declared that the two nations must stand for their common ideals ln peace they have in war and declared that "the problems of peace are harder than those of war times. Lord Burnham, in seconding this toast, affirmed: "What we need is understanding, not only of the eye and mind, but, above all, of the soul. The Mayflower's manifest, he added. represented the greatest cargo of "concentrated essence of world power in the world's history." He declared re-establishment of the old Washing ton home at Sulgrave manor would be the erection of a "temple to the future of mankind. American Ambassador John W. Da vis, in responding, said there was no reason why Britons and Americans may not "again rededicate themselves to the perpetuation of the Ideals for which Washington stood." Of all the mad, misguided men in the world to day, he declared, he is most mad and misguided who would cast the apple of discord between the two English- speaking nations. Lord Reading, proposed "The mem ory of Washington and the friendship of the British and American peoples." He characterized Washington as "the man who defeated us and one of the best men we ever produced.1 ever, that a great change for the bet ter had been brought about in her appearance. Tiome cares that worried me con stantly were primarily the cause of my illness,' says Mrs. Hankins. I became so weak and exhausted that it was a great effort for me to do my work. My feet felt like heavy weights. My blood was thin and 1 had very lit tle color. What little sleep I could get didn't help me any and I arose in the morning as tired as when I went to bed. I was so nervous that I trem bled and little things upset and wor ried me. "Several years before I had used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with excellent results and they had also helped my daughter, so I procured a box and again tried the treatment. Within short time my appetite improved. Gradually my strength returned and my work became a pleasure instead of drudgery. My nerves no conger bothered me and my color is much better.

Two girls, Elsie Adams, a?e 17, and Frances Adams, age 6, who failed yesterday to return to the home of their mother, Mrs. Elsie Laster Adams, after the Madrona Presby terian Sunday school had been dis missed, are today on their way to San Francisco in the custody of Joseph D. Adams, their father, and from whom Mrs. Adams is seeking divorce, according to & telegram the mother received from Portland short ly before noon. Mrs. Adams laid the telegram at once before Sheriff John Stringer, and measures were taken to have Adams apprehended and returned here to face a charge of kidnaping. Until a month ago the Adamses lived together. Then Adams went to Cal ifornia. Mrs. Adams obtained work as night telephone operator at the city hall, and during her absence her mother, Mrs. M. P. Laster, cared for the children. February 14 Mrs. Adams filed action for divorce and obtained a court order granting her custody of the children until the action was settled. Sheriff Stringer has asked the Sac ramento police to be on the lookout for Adams and the two girls, and his arrest is to be made there.

Mr. West says, the farmers are unable to purchase powder for land-clearing purposes and as a result much valu able acreage is lying idle for want of development.

Rear-Admiral Ralph Visit of Portland and Seattle Lodgemen to Vancouver, B. C, Reveals Value of Proposal. SEATTLE, Wash., ..Feb. 23. (Spe cial.) A movement to bring about social affiliation between, the Elks of Canada and the Elks of the United States began when officials of Port land Elks lodge No. 142, pledged of ficials and members of Vancouver, B. C Elks lodge No. 1, that they would do everything in- their power to obtain favorable action on the proposal at the next grand lodge ses sion in Chicago. The visit of the Portland and Se attle Elks to Vancouver demonstrated the value of social affiliation, it be ing shown by club room records that many American Elks visit the Van couver clubrooms each day. At pres ent, the American order of Elks does not recognize the Canadian Elks in any manner, although it is customary to accord them clubroom privileges when a Canadian Elk visits an Amer ican lodge. The large vanguard of Elks from Portland arrived in Seattle late to night, making connections with the midnight train to Portland. Per haps the most amusing feature of the entire trip was the gigantic raids made into prospective "stocks" of the Portland brethren at Blaine, Wash., when United States customs officers spoiled all chances of a temporary oasis in some of the Portland homes. Although the excursion of the Portland lodgemen has been fast and furious, it is the consensus of opinion that never in the history of Portland lodge has an excursion furnished such a large quantity of real entertainment.' $29.90 Is the Emergency Sale Price of Banded Satin Brass Beds Worth $37.50 $38.75 $51.50 $39.90 $61.00 for Square Post Brass Beds worth $49.75 for Massive Brass Beds worth $69.75 for Panel End Brass Beds worth $53.50 for 2-Inch Filler Brass Beds worth $67.50 Extreme Price Reductinns on Beautiful Overstuffed Davenports $157.50 Overstuffed Tapestry Upholstered Davenport, pictured.
