It, is often a long Jane that has no

Few people realize to what extent
the gasoline engine has become a
factor in our commercial life. Caso
line provides the motive power for
many enterprises that could not af
ford steam power. This quiet revolu

. During the next two weeks In tlio
Willamette valley hop growers will
"harvest their crop and whether or not
it is remunerative depends entirely
whether or not It rains. If Editor Hof
fer persists in praying for rain dur

his prayers are answered, ho might
as well relinquish his ambitions for
political proferment, but who said

Within the next few weeks many
counties iu the Btato of Idaho will
ote on local option. The results of
this election will be closely watched
throughout tho country generally,
from the fact that In Idaho women
liave equal rights nt tho ballot box
with men. There is no question but I
that upon women and children falls j
by far the heaviest burdens of the!
evils of intemperance. From a moral ;
standpoint !" per cent of the women !
of Idaho should vote for local option, I
If they do bo every county will vote i
dry, but will they? The liquor inter
ests have always been arrayed against
women suffrage, on the supposition1,
that morally women stood higher than
ien. A comparison of tho five states :
where women do vote do not offer
many striking examples as reflected j
by the laws they help make in sub
stantiation of this theory.
The above was received In our reg
ular telegraph report yesterday and
was set In type, but Just prior to go

to "kill it" which in newspaper par
lance means not to use it.
We note, however, that several
papers did use it, consequently there
may be some doubt as to accuracy of

Story Unfounded.
DAYTON', Ohio. Aug. 26. "The
story from Portland, Oregon, that my
brother, Orville, was married to Mrs.
O. A. Carson, .of that place is untrue
from the beginning to the .end" is
the statement of Orrln Wright, elder
brother of the noted aviator. "There
Is not a word of truth In it as Orville
never was married. If Mrs. Carson
married a man named Orville Wright
he must have belonged to some other
family of Wrights." "
