HILE the attendance at the stock show was very good all day yesterday, there was such a airrerence between , the crowded aisles of Friday and the thin lines of yesterday as to make a novice think there was "nobody at home." But the observer must remember that the buildings cover 10 acres of ground, and when you scatter say five or six thousand people over that large i space they look mighty scattered, par ticularly after the rush of Friday. Now that the great show is draw ing to a close, the managers are be ginning to lay plans for 1922, for they will stand for no backward movement. The show must be kept on the upgrade. President Stimson is not the sort of man that Is satis fled to rest on his laurels after being at tne head of the greatest livestock show ever held west of the moun tains; neither is Mr. Plummer, and no doubt the directors to a man will back them up and the cattle growers will, as usual, back up the directors. "Jim," said a large raJeer of beef cattle from eastern Oregon yesterday afternoon In my hearing; "Jim, do you remember a little dinner you and I had at the show six years ago, the year I had that fine carload of fat Herefords here and sold them for 7 cents a pound?" "Sure I remember," replied his fel low central Oregon breeder and grower. "Well, Jim, those juicy porterhouse steaks we had that night cost eix bits each; and they sure were fine." "I'll tell the world they were, re plied the guest. "What I wanted to eXDlaln to vou. Jim, was this: when fat steers of the best sold for 7 cents a pound the best restaurant and hotels put up a first class porterhouse steak for 75 cents. Now, six years later, fat steera like those I sold then are selling at a shade less than E cents, and I went into that same hotel last night and on their bill of fare I noticed that a porterhouse steak was priced at $1.50. I didn't buy one not on your life. I will admit the farmer and stock raiser is the goat, has been for a long time, and is getting goatier and goatier every year. The best of 'em are just about making a living, with out making a cent of interest on his Investment. What Is the matter?" MDamfino," replied Jim, "but I hope for a turn and must wait for it, for it is the only game I know." "Here, too. We are hog-tied. We can't let loose. We've got to grin and bear it, and hope for the best." I talked with a good many prize winners and prize losers yesterday. Of course, you can't lose something that you never had, except in your mind. But when you take a pet ani mal to the show with absolute con viction that the animal surely must take the blue ribbon, and escape without even honorable mention, it sure is tough, not to say rough and exasperating. But when you listen to the judge going over the points of your animal, you first feel small and then smaller, and finally ac knowledge you received just what was coming to you. That is about the way the defeated seemed to feeL Were they sore? No. Almost to a unit they gave the judges credit for being absolutely fair. And by get ting such high-class men as judges is one of the thLnes that is zolner to advance the show about as rapidly as any one thing that can be men tioned. On of the great surprises of the show 13 the horse- show. When- J. D. Farrell first talked (horso show, the idea to many looked ridiculous. But the management went ahead and put It on, and It has rapidly grown to about six time Its original stature and is now recognized as one of the great factors of the show. In a few years more it wiU be the great an nual society event of the northwest. Pre-War Rail Rate System Held Discriminatory. PROPOSAL NOT FAVORED Or.; third. Ann's Sensation, H. & Curtis.

HUSBAND HELD EPILEPTIC Woman Declares Fits Make Huljbj Cruel and Dangerous. VANCOUVER, Wash., Nov. 12. (Special.) Mrs. Ada Lind'ley is suing her husband, WllHs E. Lindley, for divorce because he is & victim of epi lepsy, she asserts. The couple were married June 4, 1917, in Bellalre, O., and shortly after the wedding-. It is said, she discovered that he was sub ject to fits, following which he was cruel and vicious so that she was afraid to live with him. The Ohio state law, Mrs. Lindley's complaint avers, forbids marriage of persons suffering from epilepsy, but in spite of this he declared he was in good health. She lived with her hus band three years following the mar riage in hope that he would recover but he did not improve. Condemnation Hearing Monday. SALEM. Or., Nov. 12. (Special.)

Lack of food has been a restraint to exploration in New Guinea. Commissioner Corey Says Scheme Retards Intermediate Points In Their Development. SALEM. Or.,' Nov. 12. (Special.) Railroad companies which during the war received substantial increases in freight rates affecting all points, now are petitioning the interstate com merce commission for a return to the nre.war system . of rate-maKing, whereby Pacific coast terminal charges will be less than those in volving intermediate points. This relief Is necessary, represen tatives of the railroads contend, to enable the rail lines to' compete with Kat. AiiAr.tlTiir thrnuirh the Panama canal, from coast to coast, and be- J tween Pacific coast seaports. "Should the carriers succeed in these requests, interior points again will be placed at great disadvantage through the intermediate territory again as suming the burden of support of the country's rail transportation system," H. H. Corey, member of the Oregon publis service commission, said in a statement Issued here today. Proposal Held Ruinous. "Under such conditions I do not be lieve interior points can safely invest In local industrial and, commercial en terprises for the reason that such in vestment may be Jeopardized and per haps confiscated by the subsequent lowering of rates to the coast points under the guise of meeting water, rail and market competition in one form or another. Such policy, to my mind, restricts opportunity and de velopment, as well as restricting in crease in population and taxable wealth. "Rather than to reduce railroad rates to meet boat competition at coast terminals, would not the equali zation of rates throughout the coun try have a higher beneficial effect by placing all communities upon an abso lute equality? Equal Treatment Advoemted. "Those of the Intermediate points will not object to their railroad rates as long as they are reasonable and free from unjust discrimination, un due preference and prejudice, for the intermediate points then would be upon an equal footing with all other localities and thus would be enabled to manufacture their products at home and compete in a healthy manner with other localities, and will obtain the advantage of community betterments and prosperity, thus permitting the spending of their own money at home instead of allowing it to go to a few terminal industrial centers. "Such a schedule of rates would per mit industrial development at the in termediate points and increase the nnnnlntlnn w.nlth nnH taXAhlfi tlTOn- erty of such cities as SaleSn, Albany, Corvallis, Eugene, Roseburg, Grants Pass, Medford and Ashland. Baker. La Grande, Pendleton and The Dalles. Mileage Basis Not Favored. "I am not an advocate of the the ory of making rates on a mileage basis. I am, however, as & general proposition, opposed to the granting of a lower rate for the longer haul over the same route and in the same direction. Such practice should not be again permitted as existed prior to the war. 'In 1918 the interstate commerce commission issued a fourth section order. No. 6790, owing to the ab sence of boat competition during the war, under whdeh tariffs filed by the carriers, dated January 21, became effective March 15. 1918. These tar iffs provided that rates to intennedl ate points could not be higher than to the terminals. Old Schedule Opposed. These tariffs provided for In creased rates to the coast points, but not any reduction to the intermediate points, since which time railroad rates have been on a parity, and many new industries at intermediate points have been fostered, with no appreci able detrimental effect upon the car riers, and the present rate arrange ment has proved highly beneficial to such communities. It is to re-establish the old basis that the carriers are now making numerous fourth section applications. Personally, I do not think these ap plications should be allowed. IS Jt'KY FIXDS JACKSON COUNTY FARMER NOT GUILTY. Plea of Self-Defense In Slaying of "Wilbur Jacks Is Upheld In 1 2-Minute Verdict. MEDFORD, Or.f Nov. 12. (Special.) A verdict of not guilty was reached in the Matthews second-degree murder case early this evening: after the jury had been out just 12 minutes, thus ending: one of the most interesting: trials in the history of . Jackson county. Raleigh Matthews, the young: farmer who pleaded self-defense in the killing: of Wilbur (Wig:) Jacks at Eagrle Point last September, and his friends were overjoyed at the verdict, which was not unexpected by the pub lic in view of the fact of it having: been proved conclusively at the trial that Jacks repeatedly had threatened to take the life of Matthews and had said that one or the other must die. One of the witnesses was John Nich ols, highly-respected pioneer of the Eagle Point district, known to hun dreds of southern Oregon folk as "Un cle John,' who took the stand for the defense today and told of threats made by his son-in-law. Jacks, against the life of the defendant, "uncle John testified that last spring Jacks had shown him an automatic pistol during conversation, with the remark : I Reward for Every Answer!

WRIGHT Series of Talks On Practical Dentistry By DR. B. E. WRIGHT 1 NO. 2 I During the year 1920 there were 9103 persons killed in automobile accidents in the United States. I think that it is safe to say that not three people died as a direct result of focal infection from devitalized teeth during the EE same period. E Would any sensible person advtse the abolishing of the automobile IE on account of these fatalities? I think not. EE Neither do I believe that any sensible person who understands E the tue conditions should favor the extraction of teeth because E: they have reached the stage where devitalizing is necessary. E: I think the roan who can restore these defective teeth is entitled to EE your favorable consideration. EE X-Ray Examination whew Neceaaarr. S DR. B. E.
