GRATITUDE A politician who ought
AS A RARITY to know whereof he
speaks has defined gratitude as "a
quick forgetfulness of past favors, an-1
a keen appreciation of favors yet to
come." Possibly the politician who
was moved to these words had passed
through some unpleasant experiences,
hut at any rate he came near to hit
ting the nail upon the head. Grati
tude, in these days of grace, seems
to be something that is spoken about
in polite society, but seldom demon
strated. Like some forms of chivalry,
it is a lost art, and is utilized much
the same way as is the Golden Rule
as something nice to refer to in
sermons and resolutions.
The other day a man dropped a
strongbox containing upwards of five
pounds of coin of the realm upon the
street It rolled into a gutter and
lay there until a citizen called the at
tention of a passing policeman to it.
The policeman picked it up and car
ried it to a bank, where it awaited its
owner. The owner recovered it.
One would naturally think that a cer
tain form of gratitude would have
moved the owner of this small for
tune to inquire as to how it was that
it came to be restored intact to him,
and to at least have thanked the po
liceman for his trouble. But to date
the policeman has received neither
commendation for his honesty nor
.thanks for his trouble.
Another instance. A certain man
was working for another man, and do
ing his work well. He was getting
paid passably fair for the same. There
arose an occasion where much more
work had to be done, and the em
ployee did it uncomplainingly. Was
he thanked for it? Nay, gratitude
knows not the way of business. In
stead, the boss, discovering his em
ployee's ability to do mors, saddled
upon him an extra stint of daily toil,
and never by look or sign expressed
gratitude for the first excess of activ
' ity. Mayhap gratitude has no place
in business. .
Then again. A certain politician
once so far forgot his politics as to
American Women Can't Cook
By Miss WINIFRED S. GIBBS. Home Economist,
of New York
CHE RANK AND FILE OF AMERICAN WOMEN ARE NOT
GOOD COOKS.
Judging from what I hear and see of the households run
on an income of twelve hundred dollars or so, I should say
that they are aa much in NEED OF PKOFESSIONAL ADVICE
about cooking and food values as the poorer ones.
t
THEY DON'T SEE THE POSSIBILITY OF DOING THINGS ON
SMALL INCOMES; THEY BECOME DISCOURAGED AND GET THE
HABIT , OF HAVING- THE- 8AM E THINGS OVER AND OVER AGAIN
JUST BECAUSE THEY DONT KNOW ANY BETTER.
Always the same t That seems to be a FAILING OF HOUSE
nOIDS all up and down the line. - It's tea and bread for the poor,
it's stew and buns for those who can afford these luxuries, and it's
lamb and peas, beef and beans, for the well to do who get into a gas
tronomic rut. : The premiptial complaint, "WHAT, HASH
AGAIN I" is not limited to anv one household- .1 . v.."""

do the common people a favor. Later
he ran again for office. Modesty up
on his part prevented him from
boasting of what he had one, and at
what cost he had done it. And the
voters, minus that gratitude upon
which the politician had banked for
his re-election, chose another man to
fill his place a man from whom they
thought they might get more than
from the first. Contemporaneous
history will reveal these facts to be
set forth truthfully.
Why, is this apparent disappear
ance of gratitude? Why has one of
the noblest and most attractive of the
virtues apparently passed away? Why
is it that mien no longer hail each
other as brothers when a big favor is
done one by the other? Why are
words and protestations of thanks so
hollow? It is time for a return to
tthe good old days.
TWO WAYS Present day history
TO DO IT yields interesting contrasts
in the way different people do differ
ent things, and the results. Take
this matter of the agitators who are
at present keeping Portland in a tur
moil. Oregon City has a particular
interest in this fuss, because Oregon
City for awhile was host to these
same men and some of the women.
Here, however, they were politely
laughed at, after the first shock of
their appearance had passed. The
mayor formally invited their profes
sional orators to come to the city
and spout, and told tiiem that as long
as they confined their remarks to the
decencies they would be allowed to
talk. They came, tbey overstepped
the border gingerly, and finding that
they were not taken seriously, they
went away and have since remained
away.
In Portland, however, they were not
treated so leniently. In former years
they have been so treated, and they
have worked off their superfluous
steam harmlessly.' But under the
new administration they were baited
and dared to do things; and as their
peculiar propanganda thrives upon op
position, they hopped right to it, and
tore Portland wide open. Riot follow
ed riot, excess followed excess, and
the end is not yet in sight, though the
jails are filling, and the rock-pile is
increasing in business. Portland has
fought' the agtators .more "or less un
wisely, and the agitators have taken
advantage of it and fought back.
There are two methods sharply con
trasted the soft answer that turneth
away wrath, and -the bluster and bluff
that provokes trouble. Added to the
soft answer here was the most deadly
weapon of all, gentle ridicule. The
agitators cannot stand ridicule, they
must be taken seriously, or they can
not be taken at all. Oregon City
should be proud of tha wisdom of its
mayor and police officers, who decid
ed to take the easiest way out of a
threatening situation. Had they done
otherwise, Oregon City might now be
PRESIDENT OF FRANCE WELCOM ED MIDST
ENGLAND
(Copyngnt by International News Service; supplied by New Process Elec-
tra Corporation, N. Y.)
President Poincare of France on his arrival at Portsmouth on his first
official visit to Great Britian was received by the Prince of Wales as he
alighted from the steamer. The prince can be seen in the photograph by
tie president's side. The president and the prince were escorted by the
Guard of Honor and various high dig nitaries of state tto Victoria, from
Portsmouth, by special train where King George receivtd his distinguish
ed guest, meeting him at the railroad station. President l'cincare was ac
companied by the French Minister for Foreign affairs.
in a similar boat to that which is
bearing Portland on a stormy voyage.
There is yet another method, too.
Seattle has demonstrated that it is
just as effective as the soft answer
and that is the mailed fist. Either
laughter or real battle is too much for
the agitators; but the middle path of
uncertain bluster they like. Seattle,
more or less advisedly, fell upon the
malcontents like the North Wind in
his wrath, and smote them right
heavily. The agitators fled precipi
tately. That it happened that United
States sailors took part in the smiting
was a mere coincidence; a vigilance
committee would have done as well,
and perhaps better.
If Porcland would quit its bluster
and storming, and really give battle
to the agitators, her troubles would
end. If she would resort to ridicule
her troubles would end. She can
either pound the agitators into sub
mission, or give them a plenty of rope
for their own undoing. Either plan
will succeed. But as long as she tem
porizes, and permits her officials to
"show off" like silly school children,
the agitators will continue to make
it interesting. One does not notice
in the news repors that the Portland
police are having any trouble. When
they start to clear a street they ac
complish their purpose for the police
are not trained in the boastful art of
self-aggrandizement. They either do
nothing or they do something: If
Portland would let her police handle
the problem she would recover soon
er, if force is to be used.
Review of these facts and these ex
amples cannot but impress the aver
age man with the though that Oregon
City handled her little affair just
about the right way. It is nice to
know that wisdom abides with us
and it is satisfactory, too. Oregon
City kept her head level, and had the
minimum of trouble. Level heads are
great things to have 'upon the
shoulders of authority.

ROYAL POMP BY
- A MILE WITH ME.
Oh, who will walk a mile with
me
Along life's merry way?
A comrade, blithe and full of
glee.
Who dares to In ugh out loud and
free
And let his frolic fancy play,
Like a happy child, through the
flowers gay
That fill the field and fringe the ,
way
Where he walks a mile with me.
And who will walk a mile with
me .
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes
to see.
And stars shine out o'er the
darkening lea,
And the quiet rest at the end
of the day
A friend who knows and dares
to say
The grave, sweet words that
cheer the way
Where he walks a mile with me.
With such a comrade, such a
friend.
I fain would walk till journey's
end
Through summer sunshine, win
ter rain.
And then? Farewell we shall
meet again!

sometimes disputed the distance or
even carried the affair into court, but
the "cabmen's terror" always won.

MARKET FOR MEATS
SOMEWHATIBETTER
Receipts of livestock in Portland for
the week, have been: Cattle 1304,
calves 133; hogs 2256, sheep 6372.
Cattle market last week steady to
strong. Improved beef outlet had bull
ish effect on prices. Prime steer top
$8.00 to $8.25 with bulk of steer sales
at $7.75 and $8.10. Eastern Oregon
steers at $8.60 and cows $7.75 fea
tured. .There has been a keen de
mand for choice butcher cattle espe
cially cows and heifers. Sales were
made in small quantities as the sup
ply was comparatively short. Best
cows $7.75 to $7.25, heifers $7.25 to
$7.59, choice bulls $5.50 ta $6.00 and
choice light calves at $9.00.
The hog market was steady to high
er. - One load of extra fine hogs sold
at $9.40 Friday morning, bulk of light
swine sales $9.15 to $9.30. Sound
packers have been liberal buyers on
the market and the light run was
quickly absorbed. Swine prices are
apparently on a heavy basis at least
for the present. ,
' Sheep house business has been
slow all week. Demand for both mut
ton and lambs has been light and the
trade has shown no sign of improve
ment whatever over previous week's
market. - A liberal top Is' 6c as some
very good stock sold at that price.

$4.25 and yearlings at $44.50 are ex
