THE PULL THAT PULLS.
"But I have no pull."
That was what my young friend said
when I advised him to apply at a cer
tain place for a job.
I did not say to him what I thought
No pull?
Why, he had a pull a tremendous
pull. He had a pull on his own
strength and persistence and skill 'and
manliness and self respect on his own
pluck and patience and push.
He was asking special favors.
Did he know the danger of specific
privileges?
Nine times in ten there is a string
tied to such preferences.
Beware of the pull, young man.
You are expected to return exception
al favors extended to you. And when
it comes to trading favors what guar
anty have you that you will receive
as much or more in the exchange?
He who grants you one concession is
likely to ask of your civility two in re
turn. Besides
In the manly attitude of him who
asks no preferential chance beyond
that he merits there is great force. To
him who succeeds of himself there
comes a sense of self respect that
never comes to him who courts the
smiles and aid of others.
"I have no pull."
The expression, which is all too com
mon, reveals a habit of looking for ex
clusive privilege that is wrong in prin
ciple and vicious in practice.
Equality of opportunity is of the
substance of democracy. No man has
the right to demand more than a fair
chance and an open field.
No pull?
Why should you receive some extraor
dinary friendship denied to others?
Why should you be excused from re
auirements for which others are made
to pay?
The pull that you use may become"
the pull back once you exercise it

ST. HELENS, Or., June 10. At
shortly after midnight Judge James
' U. Campbell discharged the jury
which tried James Arthur Pender for
the murder of Daisy Wehrman. Tlie
jury after having been out since short
ly before 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon
was in a hopeless deadlock, standing
nine to three for acquittal. -
I The first ballot held was for the pur
pose of determining the jury's opin-
I ion of the guilt or innocence of Pend
er. "Guilty" as the verdict,
On the second ballot, held for do
tremining the degree, nine stood for
first degree murder and three for sec-
I ond degree.
The third ballot showed seven for
first degree and five for second degree.
Then came numerous ballots, those
who at first favored second degree vot
ing for acquittal.
The final ballot, developing an un
breakable deadlock, stood nine for ac
quittal and three for conviction of
murder in the first degree.
Pender's second trial probably will
not be held before the fall term of
court, which opens in September.
Pulque Trains In Mexico.
Pulque is the national drink of Mex
ico. It is made from the juice of the
magney plant, large tracts of which are
cultivated outside of Mexico City. As
a rule, there are 800 plants to the acre.
The Juice is extracted by peons. It
Is shipped into town in long trains
much like milk trains here, and the
consumption is so great that it is
equivalent to two quarts a -day . for
each person.
The white liquid tastes like yeast,

Tne CircTing or cranes.
One day in the autumn, long, long
ago, the cranes were preparing to go
southward. As they gathered in a
great flock they saw a beautiful girl
standing alone near tne village. The
cranes wanted to take her with them.
They gathered about and lifted her on
their outspreads wings So they car
ried her into the air and far away.
Now, when the cranes were taking her
up Into the air, they circled below her
closely so she could not fall. They
also cried in loud, hoarse voices so
that people could not bear her call for
help. Therefore the cranes always
circle about in autumn when prepar
ing to fly southward and utter loud
cries. "Myths and Legends of Alaska."
The Drunken Parliament.
There was a Scotch parliament once
which would not have cast a second
glance at a temperance bill. . The first
parliament which met In Scotland
after the restoration of Cluu les II. had
not at any time the least hankerings
after temperance reform. It acquired
the name of "the drunken parlia
ment," In fact, and lived up to its
reputation. Scott in his ""Tales of a
Grandfather" gives evidence: "When
the Scottish parliament met the mem
bers were In many instances under the
Influence of wine, and they were more
than once obliged to adjourn because
the royal commissioner (Middletoni
was too Intoxicated to behave prop
erly In the chair." London Chronicle.

ENTERPRISE
SALEM, Or., June 10. All sorts of
appeals are made to Governor West,
and the latest is from G. W. Sloneck
er of Gardiner, Or., who asked the
Governor to keep automobiles oft the
new road just completed between
Gardiner and Glenada.
"We don't consider that these autos
have any right or privileges on this
road," he said. "We look upon them
as a dangerous nuisance -and in re
straint of trade."
He explained that the road had been
built after twenty years of effort; that
it was narrow and had short turns,
and had but few places for teams to
pass. He said .for eleven miles there
was not a house and for sixteen miles
not a telephone, and that the teams
became almost scared to death at the
approach of an automobile.
"Either the farmers or the autoists
will have to .stay oft," he said. He
added as a postcript that he thought
the settlers would be willing to give
the road over to the autoists on "Sun
day to chase themselves if they wish,
providing theydon't abuse the privi
lege." Governor West turned the commun
ication over to Attorney General Craw
ford for reply. '

THE SPUYTEN
DUYVIL
By F. A. MITCHEL
"Mebbe some o you men don't think
there's such thing as the devil," said
an old Jack Tar who had weathered
bo many gales that they had blown
nearly all the hair off his head and
furrowed his cheeks like the ribbed sea
sand. "Well, I might o' thought so,
too, if I hadn't seen the folly o' fiyin'
in the devil's face. There was a Dutch
cap'n when I was a youngster that was
a turrible hand to swear and punish his
men and blaspheme and all that, but
every voyage paid him, and he got rich.
He made money on the goods be tuk
put and made money on the goods he
brought back. .
"He was mighty proud o disap
pointln' us all, was the Cap'n Gunneel,
and after a while when he started on a
voyage he changed the name of his
ship from the Maggie Bristow, which
was the name of the cap'n's grand
daughtera little angel she was, too
to the' Spuyten Duyvll, which In Amer
ican means, 'In spite , o' the devlL'
Cap'n Gunneel intended by the name
that he would sail his ship and succeed
in spite o' Satan. It was the useless
est thing he could o' done. There's no
nse o' gittin' any one down on ye, and
the devil's the worst pusson to get
down on ye there be. Besides the cap'n
had got all his luck by usln' the name
of a good little gal, and he might a
left well enough alone.
"Well, mates, he hadn't more'n got
out o' the harbor afore- it began to
blow a gale from the nor'east, that
freshened to a howlln' hurricane. It
seemed 's if the devil was in the wind
"n sayin': 'You'll sail your ship and
make money in spite o' me, will ye?
Ton Jist plow ahead. Ye'II feel my
fist's In your face with every wave
and every gust o' wind.'
"It blew three days, when the wind
went down, but next thing no'th'ard
the sea filled with floatln' icebergs,
and party soon it closed tn around the
Spuyten Duyvll, and the mercury went
down, down, till it registered 40 or 50
degrees below zero. And it didn't
warm .up again neither. The crew
wa'n't prepared for sieh weather, and,
not havln' any furs or slch warm
clothes they was tptendln' to make
for the tropics one after the other
froze stiff. One on 'em was at the
wheel, another bad lashed himself to
the riggln' try In' to uncle w a sail, an
other was layin' over the fo'castle,
and so on all dead. .
"But the cap'n, instead o' dyin. his
brain froze, and It made bim crazy.
Arter that the cold let up. the ship
got out o' the ice. and there was plain
sailin. but the ship had got clear out

down off Cape Horn and another time

her reported that she was real One
report was that she loomed up In a

The women chainmakers of Cradley
Heath, In England, could, doubtless, if
they had the time, make good a claim
to being the hardest worked women in
the world. The hand forging of heavy
chains is not play under any circum
stances, and these women have been
known to wield their hammers for
fifteen hours continuously, when work
pressed, and then to go home to do
their own housework and washing for
the family. The work is paid for on
a weight basis, the women smiths re
ceiving from $1 to $1.25 for each hun
dredweight of chain completed. A
strong and active worker can complete
a hundredweight of chain in from one
day to a day and a half. Exchange.

O. E. Freytag, O. D. Eby and T. W.
Sulivan who are arranging for the
Clackamas County exhibit for the
cpming state fair, are confident the
county will win first prize this year.
The honor was lost by only a small
margin last year. The county has al
lowed $450 for use in obtainig samples
and it is probable that this amount
and more will be received in prem
iums to reimburse the county. Mr.
Freytag announced Monday that all
persons having particularly fine fruit,
vegetables, etc., are urged to take
samples to the Promotion office for
exhibition at the fair. Messrs Down

ished fine samples of strawberries,
and Mrs Armstrong of Milwaukie, has
furnished berries. Mr. Stevens, of
Gladstone has left several fine sam
ples of asparagus at the office and
Miss Mahala Gill, of Logan, has turn
obtained through S. MacDonald, a

MERLIN, Or., June 10. An attempt
to wreck the Oregon express train
No. 16 by some unknown persons as
it pulled into Merlin by placing a
charge of dynamite on the track at
the west end of the yards, was discov
ered by a member of the train crew
of local frieght No. 226, only a few
minutes after the express had passed
over the dynamite. There were six
sticks of giant powder No. 2 placed on
the track and only the fact that it was
old powder saved a serious wreck.
Two or three sticks were cut in two
by the engine wheels.. Thus far there
is no clew to the perpetrators.
