SERVING THE There has been some
PUBLIC GOOD criticism of tie
council for its action in the passing
of what is spoken of as the "stable or
dinance." Objection is made that its
drastic provisions will work a hard
ship upon the man who lives in a
part of the city not yet served with
sewer connections, and who may de
sire to keep a horse or a cow upon
his premises. Those who object to
the ordinance say that it should have
been drawn so as to provide that it
would only be operative within a cer
tain sphere, so that people living in
the more removed sections of town
would not be forced to go to heavy
expense to comply with its provis
ions. At first glance this seems plausible
enough; but on second thought it
must be admitted that things would
not be in much better shape had the
ordinance been drawn to apply only
to the downtown or more thickly set
tled portion of the city. If the line
was drawn at any arbitrary point
there would have been the same com
plaint. Brown, who lived just with
in the line, would complain that he
had to go to much expense to make
his stable "sanitary," while Smith
who lived next door, and just outside
the sphere effected by the ordinance,
could do as he pleased. Probably
bearing this in mind, the city fathers
marie the law general in its provision.
As one of the councilmen explain
ed it later, the matter was one of
general public good, and was neces
sary owing to the growth of the city.
In order not to make any discrimin
ations, he said, the law was framed
to include all the city limits. How
ever, in voting on the matter, and in
passing the measure, most of the
councilmen probably believed that
reasonable common sense would De
used in enforcing the measure; and
no man who was keeping his barn in
clean r-nd sanitary condition would
be haled into court for not complying
to the exact letter of the law, where
such compliance would work a real
hardship upon him.
Everybody wants a clean barn or
should want their barn to be clean,
if they have one. The man who is
so slovenly as to permit his barn or
- stable to become so unsanitary that
it is a menace to the health of his
neighbors should be made to feel the
force of some adequate law in the
matter. But the folk whose natural
desire for cleanliness is such that
they take good care of any livestock
which they may possess do not need
this ordinance. They will connect
their barns wijth the sewer system
just a3 soon as it is possible, or if
there is no sewer within reach, they
will provide oth,er means of dispos
ing of stable refuse and filth. It is
not for these people that the ordin
ance was framed it was for those
few people who are so lacking in cit
izenship that they are willing to en
danger their neighbors by their own
laxity. The public healh must pre
serbed, and means must be provided
for the legal enforcement of rules of
common decency. When the well
fare of tha whole people is at issui,
it is even permissible to make some
few suffer financial burdens which
- otherwise would not have to be borne.
That is the system upon which Am
erican government is based the pro-

HOME
A good home, especially in
the summer time, makes the
whole family happy. If you
saw the fine green lawn with
roses ready to bloom you would
say "This is where I spend my "
vacation." Only 4 blocks from
head of 7th street steps. 5

viding of the greatest good for the
greatest number. But no citizen who
makes an honest endeavor to live up
to the sanitary requirements of this
stable ordinance need fear, it ; th
measure was not drawn for "spite
prosecutions" nor for an arbitrary or
unreasonable enforcement.
HARD TO In seeking a competent
SATISFY cruiser to discover how
much standing timber there was in
Clackamas county, so that the taxes
could be levied with greater fairness
to all, the members of the county
court were forced to procure a gen
tleman from beyond the county lim
its. There may have been good cruis
ers living within the county, but they
were not available at the time; and
as competency was the chief factor
to be taken into consideration, the
county court employed an outside
man. For this they have ben harsh
ly taken to task in a certain quarter.
In making alterations and repairs
upon the county court house, the
members of the county court let the
work to residents of this county, aft-sr
deciding not to accept the bids made
by firms and persons who were not
residents. For this they were harsh
ly taken to task in a certain quarter.
It seems to be a case of "be damned
if you do and be damned if you don't,"
with no satisfaction possible. It
would be interesting to know what
would please the Road Builder from
Cuba, who pays less taxes and makes
more noise than any other membe
of the disgruntled trio.

Divorce Destroying Our
Homes and Breaking
Up Our Families
Crying Evil of
People of This
Country.
By Senator JOSEPH E. RANS
OELL of Louisiana
T requires no argument
to prove' that divorce
DESTROYS THE
HOME, BREAKS
UP THE FAMILY, SCAT
TEES THE PAEENTS AND
CHILDREN TO THE FOUR
WINDS and' makes an ugly
sore that breeds sin and sorrow
of the deepest dye.
AND YET DIVORCE IS TO
DAY THE CRYING EVIL OF
i
THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY.
Official statistics of the federal census on marriage and divorce in
1909 show that in this country ONE MARRIAGE IN TWELVE
ENDS IN DIVORCE.
Divorce is growing rapidly in the United States. In the last
twenty year period, from 1887 to 1906, the number of marriages dis
solved was 945,625, while from 1867 to 1886 it was 328,716, or a little
more than one-third. In'1887 there were 483,069 marriages and 27,
919 divorces, about one divorce in every seventeen marriages. In
1906 marriages numbered 853,290 and divorces 72,069, or one divorce
in every twelve marriages. This is a fearful rate of increase.
' If it continues in like proportion for the next "forty years the mid
die Of the present century will see ONE MARRIAGE OUT OF
EVERY FIVE DISSOLVED BY DIVORCE.
Accepting as true that marriages resulting in divorce produce as
many children as others, the figures for 1906 would mean tha,t one
twelfth of our citizens, or over seven million souls, are the unfortunate
victims, either as participants or offspring, of this terrible evil and that
the homes of seven million American citizens are arid spots, unworthy
of that sacred name and nurseries of sorrow rather than of joy.
lead to Heart
Talks
By JAMES A. EDGERTON
IT IS THE MAN THAT COUNTS.
There is a great deul of weak and
idle tiilk about luck, about some men
getting on without earning promotion
and others being held back who de
serve to succeed.
Most of such talk is twaddle.
There are instances, of course, of men
being advanced unduly through favor
itism and of others being kept down
through lealousy.
Yet-
If you will observe closely and for a
long enough time you will generally
find that the balance is struck; that
the favored one will get his and the
Injured one will have redress.
Also, if you will learn all the facts
in any given case, yon will discover
that the man who wins in a big way
is the one with the brains and the
nerve and the will to win.
Some men will remain clerks all
their lives. They lack the initiative
and force to rise out of the ranks.
But there have been conspicuous in-
i stances f cleTl; tha hal
of wb a fever Tin sffieRS "fney "Veffe" Iff.
It depends on the man.
You can't judge and measure men by
the mass. You must discriminate. You
must consider them as individuals.
Lincoln .once illustrated it in the
way. Fie said that in a time of crisis
men were like a lot of stones placed
in a sieve. As the sieve was shaken
the larger stones came to the top. If
shaken long enough and hard enough,
finally the very biggest stone would
emerge and take command. I am not
attempting to quote his language, but
only to give his thought
It afterward transpired that he him
self was that biggest stone.
Well, we are always living In more
or less of a crisis, and the larger stones
will find their way to the top. The
shaking of circumstance and the force
of Individual gravity take the little
men to the bottom" and the big men to
the top. '
Shun the weak wailer who says be
v3 -",;-
never had a chanca Every man has
a chance, if he would seize it
It is the man that counts. That is
the one big fact that sticks out In all
biography and all life.
As certainly as water seeks Its level
so do men gravitate to their place or
perhaps gravitate is not the word so
do men attain to their place.
There is as wide a range of differ
ence between human beings as Is
found in the lower orders of creation.
It Is Individual character that tells
the tale.
Too Difficult a Job.
An Irishman who was too old for
active work was offered the position
of crossing tender at a small railroad
station. He looked dubious as the
duties of the office were explained to
him and the meaning of the various
flags was clearly stated. .
"In case of danger with a train com
ing of course you wave the red flag,"
said his friend, proceeding with his
explanation. A hard old hand grasped
his arm.
.. "Man. dear, it'll never do," said Pat
rick, shaking bis head solemnly. "I
could never trnst meself to remember
to wave a red flag whin there was a
green wan handy." Current Litera

gregation being so deeply affected as to
shed tears. One old lady, however, sat
bolt upright, apparently untouched by
the clergyman's eloquence. Rather an
noyed at such irresponsiveness. the
preacher's wife approached the lady re
ferred to "Excuse Ine. madam," she
said, "but may I remark that you
didn't seem much affected by the ser
mon, though everybody else was?"
"No." replied the old lady. "It didn't
affect me because he is not really my
clergyman. You see. I don't belong to
this parish!"

knows thr time of day, -and if your

the chain of another man's work
you are his clock and he ought to
