Tho accident on the nigh bridge be tween St. Johna and Portland Tues day, In which an automobile waa w recked and two men killed and three othcra Injured, la another example em phasing the fact that the day la not far distant when the State must take up the subject of speed and determine what speed Is permissible when two autos are running side by side, when meeting or when passing in the public roadway. This accident waa (he outcome of racing, and the wrecked machine shows that it waa running 33 miles an hour when the accident occurred. There were five machines In the race. Whether the men In question were running to get out of the way of the other four machines or waa a partici pant in the races makes not for safe ty, though It may for the responsibil ity. If the men were running to get out of the way of the other four autos that were racing then the men who were killed were victims of the careless-) ness of the other men. If tiiey were participants in the race then they were principals la endangering the lives of any of the other four who were running to get out of the way. And if all five machines were equally guilty in all being participants In the 1 racing, then each is equally guilty in the death of the two men who gave up their lives in the sad catastrophe. In any event It is high time that there was a sane manipulation of autos as well as a sane Fourth of July. The auto is a magnificent ma chine and a noble "steed" when used aright But when used carelessly it combines more of danger than any other vehicle for transportation in the gift of man. Those machines which might be harmful not properly con trolled aside from the auto are shorn of their greater danger in that they must keep a made roadway, but with the auto It Is different The natural R. A. JAMES, OF CHARLESTON, ILL., PRODUCES THE EAR DE CLARED BEST. R. A. James, of Charleston, 111., has the proud distinction of having grown the best ear of corn In all the 3,125, 713.GOO btiKhols of last year's bumper crop. At the National Corn Show Just held at Coluinhu, Ohio, this gentle man was awarded the W. K. Kellogg National Corn Trophy, donated In 1909 by W. K. KelloKff, president of the Kellogg Toasted Corn Flake Co., of Itattle Creek, Mich. Thousands of ears of corn from all parts of tho country and of all vari eties were entered In the competition. The selection of the grand champion sweepstakes and the award of the Kel logg trophy were mado on general points of superiority.

Some day soon there must come a law that makes the reckless autoist as careful in the country when meet ing and passing teams and brother dutolsts as in the city, and the speed at which he may meet or pass another should be no greater than that allowed in the city now. While the gain of Oregon City in population in the last 7 0 years was disappointing, We have consolation in the figures shown In the census of Baker City and Pendleton, which are calculated to make the residents of those towns sit up and howl. In the 10 years ending 1910 the gain of Baker year's prize winner is the most per fectly formed ear of the two, though it requires a careful Judge to distin guish the points of superiority. The trophy awarded to Mr. James was made by Tiffany, of New York, for Mr. W. K. Kellogg, at a cost of J1.000. It is made of Sterling silver, bronze and enamels, and is a truly artistic creation.

'Ike Bank of O regon City A new case In the Circuit Court Is that of Dora Toedtemeier vs. Louis Toedtemeler, Jr., a brother. As the story goes the father and mother-eepa- rated several years ago and in secur ing the divorce the mother received the custody of the children nine In number. A few years later, having a premonition of death, the mother made a will in which she gave all her property to a son Louis, with the pro viso that, he should keep-the family together, supporting them and school ing them, the boys to have a home till 1G and the girls till 18 years of age. The farm was 40 acres with much personal effects. It was on the 15th day of October, 1303, that Mrs. Lulah Toedtemeler made and signed her last will which gave her son Louis all of the real estate, personal and ifilxed, and to her I children, Henry, William, uora, jtuoy, George, Otto, Edward and Margaret I Toedtmeier, each $1. 1 Plaintiff avers that the brother has never kept faith with the mother, that soon after her death he began to aDuse and plan to drive the brotners and sisters away from home, that he did not try to school them, that he later began to be abusive, and that he has not tried to live up to the terms of the contract. Since Louis Toedtemeier has come luto possession of the property he has failed and has refused to support tne children left by his mother, and es pecially Dora, who has filed the suit. He commenced to abuse his sisters and brothers, curse, swear and to make life miserable, and Dora wa with other children compelled to leave home, and go to their father. In the i fall of 1904, she went to DlT old home to get some school books h?r mother had purchased for her, but the brother refused to let her come to tne place or to give her the books and told hex to go to her father, he could buy her books' for her, as he had plenty of money. By the terms of the bequest any laxuess on the part of the legatee was to subject the estate to an escheat, and plaintiff asks that the court, re !urn the estate to the helis, share and share ailke.
