If the former alone prevailed, there would be nothing steadfuxt and durable on eurth, and the whole of so- clal life would be the sport of 4 the winds and waves, if the latter hnd exclusive sway, or even If It aintnlned a mlschiev- ous preponderantly, everything would petrify or rot. The best ages of the world are those In which thi'so two principles are the moHt equally balanced. In aurh ages every enlightened man ought to adopt both principles, .and with one hand develop what he can, with the other restrain and withhold what he ought. , With no much talk of new canneries1 In Oregon there has also been tulk of the danger of overdoing the busi ness In hlx Ktate. It Is Instructive In thin connection to note that Ore gon Is behind I'tah In the number of Ita canneries, and is not likely to cutch UP this yeur even If nil the new can neries now talked of are started. The Deseret Fanner reports that there were 21! canneries In operation In Utah in 19(16 and 27 In 1S07. The amount paid to growers by the tanneries for fruit and vegetables amounted to $297, 9K9 in 1906. - The Observer Is glad to note the In terest that Is being taken In the mat ter of a county high school, At the present time there are no less than 50 young people who are attending dis tant schools who would not be If a well equipped county high school wan maintained In Union county. At a very conservative estimate at least three time this number would attend a home school that cannot afford to go away. This Is a matter that the ntlre county Is interested in and some one should take the Initiative step to bring It about. The Observer Is In receipt of bulle tin Nos. 95 and 9, from the Oregon Agricultural College experiment Sta tion, which treat on the "Ulceus of Turkeys" and "The Poultry Industry In Oregon." These bulletin can be Obtained by writing to the college nl " """ ",, J -""" 'cn valuable Information, those engaged In poultry raMng should avail th. m-; elves of the opportunity. . . rA......iii.. .... i ...i ,. i - In Milte of the fact that hogs C" Unite to drop In price, It looks Ilk a good time tor Oregon to get ready to raise more hogs.

AFTER GROCERY BILLS. Oregon Grocer) men Drafting a New Hill Dealing With Delinquent. The state association of retail gro cery men which 1 to meet in Portland next week 1 after the icalp and the purse of those public officials and employes who do not pay their grocery bills, ay the Journal. The grocery men of the tate desire to have the present statute exempting public offi cials from garnishment amended so that those who are delinquent can be forced to pay up. In order to bring about that happy state a bill is now being drafted by a prominent mem ber of the Portland association provid ing for the desired relief and Intended for submission to the people through the Initiative In June. For the past three sessions of' the legislature efforts have been made by various business men to secure the -nactrnent of a law making It possible o garnishee the wage of a public of ficial or a public employe to secure the payment of a debt. Each session the bill so introduced has fallen by the wayside after strenuous fights to secure Its favorable consideration. It ha been, and Is, represented ,by the business men who seek the law that in many instances men holding office or appointments have hidden behind the statute and have refused to pay their bills when payment was demanded. On the other hand It has been contended that there Is a remedy at law for the collection of debt and that to permit the treasurers of the state and county administrations to be bound up with proceedings in garnish ment would be to lower the dignity and destroy the system of the offices This view has prevailed up to this time with the legislatures. ( Toledo Mills About to 0M-n. A Toledo, Ore., dispatch says: After being shut down for several month on account of the poor market for lumber, the two sawmills located here expect to soon resume operations, and both are being placed in condition for early work. One of the sawmills was built last season, and when running on full time gives employment to about 100 men. Shipments of lumber from this point are largely made by rail to California points, but if the appropri ation for the deepening of the Yaqul- na liver from Yuqulna city to this place, now before congress, should be passed, the time is expected when ocean-going lumber-carriers will be able to come up to Toledo and here load lumber direct from the sawmill. This would doubtless result In the en largement of the sawmills here. (Jelling Information Out of Pa.
