It is easy to learn something new every day, but so much of it is not worth learning. The man who pays the income tax cannot expect much sympathy from the other fellow. One reason so many boys arc named after statesmen is be cause they have no rich bachelor uncles. Now and then a mhn comes in contact with a woman who makes him waver on the equal suffrage proposition. College professors work all the time and get what is left after the football coaches have been paid big saluries for three months work. If you think the United States is not a haven for the oppressed you are wrong. Anton Wiszic kiczk has just been naturalized in Chicago. There is one man in the coun try who says he is able to tell a woman's ago by looking at her. Maybe ho can. but if he has any sense he won't do it.

Wants Mass Meeting Editor Review: As thcroscems to bo so much misunderstanding among many well meaning people regarding proposed park sites, due to some misconceived ideas and misrepresentations deliber ately made for the express pur pose of poisoning the public mind agninst the truth, I suggest that wo have a well advertised, well attended meeting, cither in the city hall or high school au ditorium, and there let the truth be known, for it is tho truth that makes us free. Tho story is being freely cir culated that one of the recom mended park sites is a worthless steep hillside, directly in front of my place and that I had the same recommended so as to pre vent a river view from being obstructed. For information of those who nro reporting or giving credence to these stories, permit mo to state- That tho Western Cooper age Co., a corporation, owns tho land between my place and the river and that tho same was never thought of, nor considered for ono moment by tho commit tee: That tho proposed park site extends from near Mr. Thur- mnn's to a point soutii and west of John Edlefcsen's and not in tho same block to mine with street extended. That no part of any proposed park is in front of my place and that tho ono tendered by Mr. Stearns, which embraces the Allen tract and some of his, Is tho only one whoro some birds or animals could ho kont for benefit of tho children. There Ib as much or moro lovol land in tho Allen-Stearns tracts as in tho Jaeger or Cnplo tracts, besides the tender embraces a road way to tho dry docks for tho benefit of tho laboring men of the city, who now have to pass over private property on their wny to labor. I wonder if the laboring men of St. Johns are to receive no consideration whatever in this park location question. yVhon tho Panama Lanal is completed six times as many ships will pass up the river as now and that will mean six tunes as much labor at tho dry docks as now, provided the same aro opened up, and that would mean home employment, homo work, and Incroasod homo In dustry. Give us a public meeting so the truth may become general. D. C. Lewis, SUASIONS. In Justice's Court for tho Dis trict of St. Johns. County of Multnomah, State of Oregon. II. L.
