8ANE AUTO SPEED WANTED.
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.

The Mayor of Rochester presided Rt

given careful study to corn culture,
and who has achieved his success as a

selection and careful breeding from
season to season.

over the result for the reason that this j
Is the first time in four years that the j

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. It stands 30 Inches in height
Mr. Kellogg's Interest in corn growing
can be understood when it is stated
that the Kellogg Toasted Corn Flake
Co., of which he is president, has an
output requiring 10,000 bushels of corn
a day, raw product, for its manufac
ture. A peculiar feature is that while
the Kellogg product is mede exclusive
ly from selected white corn, the Kel
logg trophy has been won each time
by a yellow corn exhibit. The trophy
is offered for annual competition until
won twice by the same grower.

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.
