B. .Beatie was some what misleading. Judge Dimick is a candidate for the Republican nom ination for Governor. Judge Beatie is a Democrat and an applicant under the Democratic administration for Marshal of the state. While Judge Dimick and Judge Beatie are good friends they do not agree politically .and the advertisement worked a dis advantage on both of them. The ad vertisement was furnished by an en terprising real estate man who is a friend of both men mentioned, and, he like the Enterprise, little thought that anyone would take exceptions to it. However, the fact remains that Judge Beatie will be named Marshal of Oregon, and Judge Dimick has a mighty good chance of becoming Gov ernor of this great state. The Enter prise says to both of them: "Good Luck"! GOVERNMENT Secretary of the AND PANICS Treasury McVeagh, in the annual report of the operations of his department transmitted to Congress, renews his earlier urging of an improved bank ing system. There can be no denial of the necessity of improvement in the present system, and the secretary cannot even be charged with exagger ation in saying that the Federal Gov ernment, so long as the present faulty system is retained, will be respon sible for the commercial, financial and industrial disasters which flow from panics. But the desirability of having a better system being gener ally admitted, it will- be generally disappointing for the business world to find that the secretary sees only the end but not the means. The pres ent system promotes and developes panics, he declares, but he seems to offer nothing more than glittering generalities by way of providing a better one. The. revision of the law, he says, should, aside' from' affording flexible and tlastic currency and re serves, bring the banks into an or ganized co-operation and provide for a central agency through which they tav ivf vunuutuwMumuwmutw Continued Attack on Railroads Disrupting America's Power By President ARTHUR T. HADLEY of Yale University 'HE American nation may LOSE ITS GREATNESS if the temper shown by recent unreasonable attacks on railroads is not altered. I am afraid that neither the public nor the government is awake to the real state of things. In our endeavors to control cor- . porations we TOO OFTEN TRY TO LESSEN THEIR EFFI CIENCY INSTEAD OF INCREASING IT. We are appalled by one rr-i'road accident, and we suggest that every engine should - have two engineers instead of one. A fast train runs off the track, and a government officer suggests that people ought not to want to travel so fast. ' IF THESE VIEWS PREVAIL THE DAYS OF AMERICAN GREAT NESS ARE DONE. A PEOPLE THAT BELIEVES IN DIVIDED RE SPONSIBILITY AND WASTE OF TIME HAS NO FUTURE. THERE IS COMPETITION BETWEEN NATIONS, WHETHER THERE BE COMPE TITION WITHIN THE NATIONS OR NOT. IF WE ARE CONTENT TO TAKE THINGS EASILY, GERMANY WILL BE ONLY TOO GLAD TO GET AHEAD OF US. What is to be done in the face of this state of things? In the first place, we must CONTINUE TO REWARD THE EFFI CIENT MAN. : The fact that competition, will no longer do this automatically must make us all, as part of our public duty, lend a hand to the men who are getting things done. We shall deal with the problems of corporate regulation and with the abuses of cor porate management more effectively if we are willing to appreciate efficient service. ' ' We must develop a system of FIRST CLASS TECHNICAL TRAINING AT LOW PRICES, like that which has been so suc cessful in Germany. The great obstacle to good technical training in -the United States in the past has been the idea that public schools ought to be free. - - can work free, of political or trust control.' . Battle ships can hit a small target at a distance of seven miles, but this will not suffice to keep the Balkan al lies from reaching salt water some where. A Democratic senator remarks that there are Democratic protectionists. No doubt of it, and they will shortly realize the folly of voting for a free trade party. Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and Indiana are the only states in the Union that batted over 200,000,000 bushels in corn production for the season of 1912. Some of the Democrats are so sen sitive about cause and effect that they don t want anybody to mention that fire will burn, water drown, or a misplaced switch make trouble. A business more restful than that of smoking glass for eclipses has been discovered. It is that of acting as a living model for embalmers. And yet it is a stiff proposition for the nervous. A grandson of Patrick Henry lived long enough to see the Mother of Presidents add another to its list. Everybody admits that the first Vir ginia president is as good a model as evet. The latest Democratic recipe for.re ducing the cost of living: "Give us back those 50,00.0 fourth-class post of- fices." Democratic patronage pie will be abundant, but the crust shorter than ever, according to the figures of the popular vote. An irrigation dam just completed in Texas cost $7,000,000. The bumper crops of this year are just one mile post on the road. Uncle Sam will not send the army officer who superintended the build ing of the Panama Canal to Mr. Car negie for a pension. A scientist says country boys have a small chest expansion. Their lim ited opportunity for rooting at base ball may account for it. FORUM OF THE PEOPLE HEALTH OFFICER BLAMED. CLACKAMAS, Feb. 11 (Editor of the Enterprise.) In the Enterprise of Feb. 7, appeared an article headed, "Carelessness causes spread of di sease,' in which Dr. Norris is quoted as saying: "That several case of the scarlet fever in Clackamas might have been prevented had the families of those afflicted been more careful." Also that "In several cases person's who were exposed to the disease have been careless and thus made it difficult to stamp out the contagion." He also charges people with breaking quarantine, saying: "If persons, had been careful of keep the quarantine there might have been no more cases at the present time." This is adding insult to injury and shooting at long range, when the peo ple concerned were not supposed tot read his article. The facts are Dr.' Norris is charging the people with his own guilt. Every time the cases were turned over to Dr. Norris as health officer there would be a new outbreak of scarlet fever. He had his deputy fumigate the house and the people were told they could not go anywhere whicn they usually did. Now he blames the people the most of whom followed his advice when he is the guilty man. He turned these people out in some cases, . 10 days too soon, others were turned out 21 days too soon and one was turned out 28 days-too soon. To make the matter plain ; when the fi- st cases occured they were placed under quar antine. There were then no new cases for about 5 weeks, when Dr. Norris caused one house to be fum igated and the people were told they were free to go anywhere. They went to church and the girl went to school. Several new cases resulted of this disobedience on the part of Dr. Nor ris, of the rules laid down by the State Board of Health. Was this fam ily to blame? No. They did not know the law but followed the direc tion of the health officer or his dep uty.' The second outbreak was held in check lor more than six weeks. Dur ing a part of this time the schools were closed and the churches closed down. It was agreed not to reopen school until the health officer, Dr. Norris, - should . pronounce the- situa- E. H.

Two frightful accidents occurred here this morning with fatal results, casting a gloom over the city. Little Ethel Grubbs 'was .run over and her body ground beneath the wheels of an in coming Walla Walla paor.euger tTain.. Almost at the same lime, in anoth er part of the city, Lloyd Hall waa accidentally shot and killed. The little Grubbs girl was hurrying o the Catholic school , and it is thought that, in an attempt to avoid tfing late, she dashed across the r.-.il-ond tracks without aoi .r.y. the '.'n comi'ig train. Tb.3 ."jitue train pa-sod aver, the body Mid nutilated it badly. At the point where the acci dent occurred three main line? of railroad cross Court Street, one of the main thoroughfares, and one which all students of ' the - Catholic school use. The place is dangP.rous at best, and there is no flagman or warning signal of any kind at cross ings Lloyd Hall had taken a 22-cal;!-ie r:tie out early in the morning to hunt rabbits before school time. Return ing to the house, he handed the gun to- his sister, asking her to put .it away. In the exchange the weapon in home manner was discharged, the 1 all f triking the la J in the breast, kiDiiig him. almost instantly. The boy was a member of the freshman clfss st the High school, where he was prominent in aihletics and was well liked. He was a son of James hall, a prominent stockman of Camas Prairie. - A Liberal Offer.

They went to church and school. Were they to blame? They Denevea ur. in orris Knew or ougnt to know the law. At least eight j cases sprung up within a few days, re-' suiting in the death of one. When all had taken it, who were susceptible and the people had kept their child ren away from school and public gath erings there was another pause of several weeks until another batch oi patients were turned out, and then we had the last outbreak. Why will Dr. Norris blame the people when he is the guilty man? Most of these people would have complied with the law had they been told what it is. What right had he to be ignorant of the rules of the State Board of Health? If he knew and wilfully dis obeyed his crime is still greater. In ho instance where the people told they must stay away from school for twenty-one days. He broke the rules when he turned out one case in twenty-one days, when the law provided that they were not to be fumigated until thirty days after they took sick and then the patient must stay away from school and other public gather ings for twenty-one days more. These facts were brought out by an exam ination of the record in his examina tion at school. Dr. Harvey . Wiley says: ."That for every preventable di sease resulting fatally, those charged with the responsibility of prevention are guilty of murder." The editor would perform a good deed if he would get a pamphlet con taining laws and rules regarding con tagious diseases and publish them. The rules for scarlet fever follow: "For the patient and children asso ciated with or in the family with the patient, quarantine for not less than thirty (30) days after the beginning of the disease and until complete des quamation or scaling of the skin of the patient. Isolation of the patient and children associated with the pa tion for ten (10) days after removal of quarantine. Patient shall not be permitted to re-enter school until twenty-one (21) days after quarantine is removed. Other children in the family may be disinfected and remov ed to another house and shall there be isolated for a period of ten (10) days and then released provided they remain free from the disease. For adults living in the family, with or exposed to the patient, while the house remains quarantined, unless said adults submit to thorough disin fection of their clothing and removal from the ". premises during the time said quarantine Is maintained.
