Thirteen went to bat and all but tour tvere struck out by the voters. The four successful measures were: The repeal ot the law pro viding for stale payment of Inter est on Irrigation bonds, the amend ment providing for the tilling of legislative vacancies, the (ncotne tax bill and the people's water and power utility districts amendment. Two of the lour moasures which passed, the income tax and the power bill were sponsored and ad vocated by. the grange which again goes to prove (hat what the farm ers want in Oregon tlioy can be reasonably sure ot getting If they put It up to the voters. This Is s great agricultural state and will be greater It this - demonstrated power 1b further used for con structive effort. ; t The Rogue river closing bill lost by a very small margin, A great donl ot the opposition to this in itiative moasuro came from the fact that It was proposed in the form of a constitutional amend ment, The rest ot the oppo sition centered around the fact that it would throw men out of work and many votors who voted against the closing ot the Itogue did so because they felt it would be wrong to incroase even slightly the unemployment pre valent at this time. The legislature will have to worry with this prob lem again. It is npt satisfactory to have a river closed to commercial fishing by legislative enactment. One session fiastes a closing bill and tho next one repeals it and the question Is never Bottled. Those who opposed the closing amendment know that they have about an even chance ot keeping the river open most of the time If it Is up to the legislature so they made much talk about the men ace of tacking sucn an amendment onto the constitution. The matter is not settled and piob.Lly never will bo settled. The cabinet form of government proposal was thrown over board by the voters too. It 'was too radi cal a change to be accepted In one doso of such largo proportions. People were voting cautiously and conservatively this time. No change was wanted In tho mothod of auto licensing, nor was tho extension of tho bonus loan privilege approved. This latter measure may pass It submitted again and at a more tranquil time. More pay tor legislators was re fused. The courts have refused to let the legislature vote Itself more pay and the voters have denied the raise. This too, like the bonus proposition needs more of econom ic serenity In the stale IT it Is tn moot with voter favor. There was no sympathy for Multnomah county's plen for more circuit judCTB, so Unit bill wn turnod down. People dn tint w Ish cigarettes prohibited and so thai also Was voted flown. They rpuid see no sense In creating another political office In fight over so the nontenant governor mcasuiv was turned down. Tho list of Initiative ami n-f.-r endum measures on the tmlloi this time was impnaing and many of those listed were highly compll cated and technical. It Is not to bo expected that any Inrpe niimlit-r oi voters knew and uii'Vi " -d .:'. the dotails of Iho nmttets upon which they were voting and It Is both surprising and gratifying t.i noto (hat on the whole the record Is qulle satisfactory.

Editor News-Kevlew: Jt has been brought to my at tention by people living In Hose- burg, and 1 nave on several oc casions noticed evidence that uoys or others have climbed to tho top of the beacon tower located up on Mt. Nebo. Aside- from the dan ger to themselves from climbing around over the tower, there Is a ery -possible chance that either knowuingly or unknowingly, such people win interlere with the prop er functioning or the light. These oeucons and other air navigational aids are placed at strategic points along the airway for the purpose ot guiding pilots who fly at night. When any ot the beacons are in terfered with, so that they do not riinntlnri nt-nnoi-lv lha anlaiv nt t lu. Pilots Who are depending unoni them Is Jeopardized.

The department of com ineice has placed a warning Bign upon the tower, which can be very plainly read, warning all persons iO keep away from tho tower. The federal government has provided & severe penally for any one Inter ienng with the proper functioning of un air nuvlgutiouul aid. The law reads as to, lows: Any person who, with lntont to interfere with air navigation in die navigable air space, exhibits within the United Suites any false igut or signal at aucu place or in such manner that It is likely to be mistaken for a true light or signal n connection with an Intermediate lauding field or other air naviga tion aid, or who knowingly re moves, extinguishes, or Interferes with the allocation of any such true light or signal, shall be guilty of an offense punishable by a tine not exceeding 15,000 or by impris onment not exceeding five yearB, or by both sucli tine und Imprison metvt i v Mjkstur n.

Everybody knews that a fatigued system is readily simvptiblc to the common ills. To maintain vitality during- the last half of the dav is therefore essential, not only for the sak of health but efficient work. One of the inwlist ways to com Ivat fatigue is eating n food or drinking bevci-ncrc that contains refined sugar. Candy, tee cream, cookies and cakes are ideal in this respect, Hest of all, they can be bought readily and cheaply every where. Medical men have made many ex periments with worker and sugar fwl8 in mid-afternoon and have 'und the results most satisfactory, The sugar quickly nourishes the body without taxing the HiKCtive system. When the body is nourished in this way. fatijrue disappears. Surh sweet snacks as those pre viously mentioned can be kept in ore's desk and eaten while at work. For a sweet beverage, glass of water containing sugar the "athlcte'j cocktail'' is most in v.yorating.

S. department of agriculture by December 10, or be subject to a fine of not to exceed $500 plus $25 for each day they operate without licenses. These penalties are pre scribed by the perishable agricul tural commodities act of 1930. Co operative associations which mar ket the products of their members either direct or through agents or dsltributors also must take out licenses. Approximately 30,000 produce dealers in the United States are subject to the provisions of this law. Applications for licenses should be filed at once in order to Insure licensing by Dervmber 10. Applications may be obit ned from the bureau of agricultural eco nomics, U. S. department of agri culture, Washington, D. C. The federal department announc ed the provision of the licensing law several months ago and urged members of the produce trade to procure licenses before the date set by congress, December 10. Nevertheless, only a few thousand applications have been received to date. Government officials declare that they are without power to ex tend, the date of issuance of li censes, and that they will be com pelled to carry out the penalty pro visions after December 10. Farmers who sell only produce which they raise are exempt from the law. Any person buying pro duce eolely for sale at retail, not to exceed twenty carloads in any cal endar year, also is exempt. stice day, and noting, the absence of spleuuid horses, such as in times past, and, too, not so many years ago, when Kentucky saddlers and graceful, speedy standard bred light harness horses added infinite ly to local celebrations and street purudes, remarked that it would be a fine thing to once again, during the time of a fair or strawberry carnival, to urge owners of those beautiful horses still left in the county to bring them In that the younger generation might get a glimpse oi iiurs and riders of an era gone. In fuct it was suggested that this very thing be done, and this writer fell In with the pro posal as something worth the best uflotta of the farmers and horse nen of Douglas county.
