Oregon proposes to banish tubercu
losis from its borders. True, it la a
formidable undertaking, but It is
planned to keep up the warfare un
til the dread white plague Is van
quished. ' . ..
. An Important step in the campaign
will be taken October 1, when the new
state home for tubercular patients at
Salem will be opened. Accommoda
tions will beprovlded for fifty pa- j
tlents at, the start, but this number
will be added to the plant soon, mak
ing room for many more. ;
The home is located five miles east
of Salem and includes 110 acres. It
occupies the . large brick building
formerly used for the state mute
schools. The last session of the leg
islature appropriated $75,000 for a
state sanitarium fok consumptives.
Of this amount $25,000 will be ex
pended annually In maintenance un
til the next legislative session, when
further funds will be provided. .
Indigent sufferers from tuberculo
sis will be first admitted and It is de
sired that each county participate in
disposing of its tubercular wards In
proportion to its population and tax
able property, 7 with this In , view',
each county Judge has been supplied
with application blanks, - where in
tending patients will be given an'op-
admission. ; 7 ; 7
I It mustbo. "shown that those seek
ipg admission are without means and
have tuberculosis. , No other, disease
will be treated. No patient who is
able to pay his way will be admitted
to the home until after, all the legally
entitled poor shall have been provid
ed for." The establishment will be un
der the direction of. th; State' Sani
tarium Commission,, composed of
Governor f. .W,, Benson,: Dr. W. B.
Morse, Salem; , Dr. Calvin White, A.
Ik Mills, 7 Portland; . ; Leslie Butler,
Hood River f ' George F.' Rogers, Sa
lem, and Dr. E. A. Pierce, Portland.
Dr. H. J. Clements, Salem, is physical
director' and supertendent. '
Red States' and Canada, with the view
to arranging a tour of the continent,
so planned that etery newspaper on
the circuit will have the services of
each man somo time during the 12
months required to ' complete the
Journey. Every state, territory and
province In America Is to be visit
ed. . ' ; , :
"While the present plan Is to treat
only national subjects as developed
In the news." Mr. Morris said In out
lining the undertaking, "It Is pro
bable that the visiting cartoonist will
aiso interpret me leading state or
local stories In the city to which he
is assigned at the time. Other features
may be added. .
. u tne laea taxes'. wu& tne car
toonists of the country, the plan will
be submitted to owners and managing
editors of from 100 to 150 Journals,
to be selected by a committee. It Is
planned to give ono newspaper in
each city on the circuit the exclusive
services of every man assigned there,
In addition to a dally, travel cartoon
by Its own artist, during the progress
of the tour., ;
"The primary purpose Is to make
the trip one of education and in
spiration, familiarize the pen and ink
men with all parts of the continent
and study the makers of its history;
also to acquaint the people with the
work of America's foremost cartoon
ists. : '7"7i7,7'' ;" ''''. ., 7 V
;"Detalla of itineraries, transporta
tion, expense, . and the management
bably located , in Chicago, will .have
to be worked out; but,ther Is ample
time to do that, as the tour will not
begin until next summer, unless It Is
decided by a majority of newspapers
to start earlier in 1911.?

Ore., Sept. 26Speciai
Entries id 7 the , All Oregon Annie
Shpwto be held at Portland Nov. 30,
Dec. 1 and 2, are coming in from all
arts of the state, and the list of ex
hibits will be bigger than at any slm-i
liar show. Out-of-state exhibits may
be- entered, but may not compete for
prizes other than diplomas.
: Cash prizes offered Oregon grow
ers total almost $1,500. In addition,
there will be many medals and di
plomas awarded, together with' priz
es of merchandise. The prize list is
so attractive that the entries will be
of high quality as , well as large in
number.: ' . : v:,' .V, .,; , ; '7
The Oregon State Horticultural So-
lety, whose 25th anniversary is cel
ebrated by the show, found that a
meeting place would have, to be se
cured that would afford ample roonj.
for the many exhibits and the O. N.
G. Armory, Tenth and" Couch streets,
will btf used. The big drill hall on
the ground floor will house the apple
show and the meetings of the Society
will be held upstairs in the conven
tion hall. This will give a splendid
down-town location for the big ap
pie fair with ample space for all re
quirements. ', , V
Counties of the state are vieing
w' each other In collecting prize ex
h'nits. Commercial clubs of -various
cities are offering prizes for the best
showing from their own counties and
'n this way warm competition, will be
aroused. ' There will be contests a
all classes and the Judges will have
their work cut out for .them by the
number and excellence of the exhib
its..',- '' Jv .'-.;:
,For the first time in the history of
the annual meeting of the hortlcul
tural Society, grapes, vegetables and
canned fruits will be exhibited, giving
it something the appearance of
fair. ,- v ; : ' , v; ,
This year's show is felt to be In the
pature of a . transition--between the
small apple display formerly held and
a big affair that will In future, attain
the proportions of a, national, apple
Show, similar In scope to that held
each year at Spokane. , j i'

since the new law gives the woman to

forgiveness. ,
. However. I was better satisfied to
have a foe worthy of a woman's op
position than a delicate man. whose
heart was tn tbe right place, but was
tbat of a chicken.1 I went at Once to
Mrs. Spangler and said to ber: "''

She tapped the table nervously with '
the hilt of her hatpin I saw that I
had touched memories now unpleasant
to her. I tried another tack. .
"Do you know, madam." I said,

"Well I have influence with her
