A GOOD APPOIVTMEXT
Governor Alcott has started out In
his administration by doing the things
that were bast for the state at large
regardless of the political or person
al side of tjhe question. We are of
the opiniorythat Governor Alcott will
leave behind him a record for effi
ciency that will be hard to equal. He
has the interest of the whole state
at heart any we predict much good to
come to the state under his guidance
during the years to come.
In the Appointment of Kid
dle of Island City to the State High
way Commission we particularly wish
to compliment the Governor. He has
put ui this important office a man of
worth, a man of whom there can be
said nothing that Is not good.
We have known Mr. Kiddle for a
unmber of years and we know that
as a business man, as a public spirit
ed citizen, and as an advocate of good
roads he is second to none in the
state. He will bring to the Commis
sion a wealth of ability and good
judgment and will be a credit to him
self, to the state, and to the Governor
whose wise choice put him in this im
portant office.
Coming from a part of the state
The supply of Turkeys is limited,

WAGE SCALE SUBMITTED
Hlnes Makes Proposal to the Railway
Brotherhoods for Increase,
Washington. Director General
Hlnes submitted to representatives of
the four railway brotherhoods an In
creased wage scale amounting approx
imately to $3,000,000 a month.
The proposal, laid before represent
atives of the brotherhoods at the clos
ing session of the wage conference.
' was taken under advisement
The Increase would affect trainmen,
firemen, engineers and conductors, but
more particularly those employed In
the slow freight train servloe.
I There are many other questions af
fecting working conditions of train-
. men which have not been decided.
-These will be the basis for further
conferences between the brotherhood

President Wheeled Outdoors.
Washington. President Wilson was
taken downstairs In a wheel chair
Monday and rolled out on the White
house lawn near the south portico. Hs
basked in the sunshine for a short
time. This was the first time he had
left the White house since his return
from the western tour, on which ha

that Is too often overlooked in the ap
pointments to offices of this impor
tance, Mr. Kiddle can be depended
upon to do the right and best thing
for the part of the state he comes
from as well as for the state at large.
What is needed on these commissions
and boards Is men of ability from all
sections of the state. In a state as
large as Oregon, with a topography so
varied, It Is almost impossible for a
man from one section to visualize the
needs of another. While he may be
a good man in his position, he lacks
the close personal knowledge that
comes from residence In a eertain
section, and the acquaintance of the
peculiarities of the part of the state
he represents.
From our knowledge of the man,
we feel confident that the state at
large will soon see the wisdom of his
appointment, and we know that this
part of the state will have a repre
sentation that is efficient.

rollcall by from four to nine demo

Start the New Year
Right
If each man In this county would
resolve to meet hla bills promptly on
("lie first of the month and koop that
resolve throughout the year, there
would be a great gain to him at well
as to the merchant. Whon the mer
chant Is compelled to go to his bank
er to secure money to moot his bills
promptly be must add a percentage)
of cost to his goods which should not
be necossary. If the purchaser Is In
need of financial help, he should con
sult his banker and make arrange
ments for money to take care of his
current bills. This relievos the mer
chant of the necessity of paying Inter
est on largo sums, which interest
must he charged back to the pur
chaser. The man who Is not moot
ing his bills Is holding his communi
ty back by his negligence or Inability.
The merchant can carry a Inrger and
bettor stock If he Is not compelled to
have so much of his capital tied up
In over due accounts. He can use his
credit to Increase bis business and
thereby benefit the., purchaser, in
stead of loaning his credit to the
slow paying ones without lntorest In
return. . Make up your mind to be
one of the prompt paying customers
fit your community for the next year
and see how much you can aave by
this method. You will be surprised
when yon discover that there ta more
of a surplus In your bank account
than before. And besldos the good It
will do you and the merchant In dol
lars and cents, there Is the mental
comfort that accrues.

the purpose of which is to create a bet
