It stimulates the old urge to get some thing for nothing; and one. of the surest ways to make a hash of 'your life is to try to do that. You may win, of course; but in 999 cases out of 1000 a man has to earn what he gets. Most people realize that, l'ut a big lottery, given wide publicity, makes many forget it. The Derby prizes have made a few people happy, but they have brought misery to very many more. PIONEERS OF STATE ( AT II Ell IN PORTLAND PORTLAND.
