The Folly of 1912 The tide has turned in Wilson's favor, and now that we are go ing to live, suffer and probably starve to death during a demo cratc regn, the time is at hand to make a prediction of this coun try's future. Although the American people, or a portion of them, fully realized the dan ger that confronted them in the possibility of a democratic ad mi nstration, they deliberately elected a democrat for president of the United States. The demo cratic party, in its platform, adopted at Baltimore, declared that the protective system is unconstitutional. Professor Wil sra is a confessed free trader. He testified before the tariff board in 1882 that he was in favor of the repeal of all pr tectivelaws, and made the absuid statement that because the states in this Union allowed free inter change of commerce, there should be a similar free interchange be tween the United States and all the producing countries of the vvorld. This will no doubt be put into effect after Wilson is inaug urated. He will be ably second ed in his efforts by Champ Clark, speaker of the democratic house of representatives, who publicly declared upon the floor of con gress that he was in favor of de stroying every custom house in the-land. Wilson will be obliged, at the very outset of his ministration, to face the alterna tives of dishonesty or disaster, the alternatives of refusing to cirry out expressed pledges of the democratic platform, or else of causing such disaster to every wo.'ker in the country as would mean nation-wide ruin. It seems almost impossible to believe that the intelligent Amer ican peoplejare going to allow the fair sunshine of prosperity to be ODscurea Dy tne oiacK ana som ber clouds of business paralysis and enforced idleness under dem ocratic administration. It is sad but nevertheless true. Coming events cast their shadows before them. VICE-PRESIDENT SHERMAN After Long Illness Noted Man Breathes His Last in the Presence of His Family Vice-President Sherman. Utica, N. Y., October 30. After a long illness, Vice Presi dent Sherman died at his home in this city at 9:42 o'clock tonight of uraemic poison, caused by Bright's disease. All the members of the im med:ate family were witnesses to the final scene. In addition to Mrs. Sherman, there were in the chamber their three sons Sherrill, Richard U. and Thomas M. Sherman and their, wives: R. M. and Sanford Sherman, brothers of Mr. Sherman, and Mrs. L. B. Moore and Mrs. H. J. Cookinham, sisters of Mr. Sher man. The announcement of the Vice President's death spread quickly through the city. Un iversal sorrow was expressed and immediate steps were taken for the proper recognition of the sor rowful event. Mr. Sherman was a(j regarded as the first citizen of Utica and all ditterences grow ing out of politics died with him. The twenty seventh Vice Presi dent of the United States, and cne only one renominated, was christened James Schoolcraft Sherman. But in nearly a quar ter of a century of public life, 'Jim' Sherman he was to his in timates, and probably half the nation referred to him as "Sunny Jim, "ta soubriquet earned by a never failincr, all year round sun ny disposition. Mr. Sherman belonged to the school of Republicanism now a his time presiding over the Sen ate as a day's business, to bo at tended to as if he were sitting in his bank in Utica, or at the treasurer's table of one of the i i manv enterorises in wmcn ne md found a fortune and laid the foundation for another for his sons. He usually appeared in a business suit, on a hot day he came in flannels. Others Senators, reluctant per haps to transgress staid custom, fell in with his ideas, and now adays on a blistering.Washington summer day the Senate looks quite like a business gathering. The illness which proved fatal was little known in Washington until the last few months. Mr. Sherman was not present during the closing days of the last ses sion, and the Senate without a president protem, by the death of Frye, and unable to agree ilpon a successor got along by temporary agreements, placing some Senator in the chair for two weeks.at a time. Vice President Sherman was born in Utica on October 24,. 1855. He married Carrie Bab cock at East Orange N.J. in 1881. They have three rons, Sherrill, Richard U. and Thomas M. all living and in business in Utica. The Vice President was an Elk, a trustee of Hamilton College, a member of the Dutch Reformed Church, a member of many clubs, and a business man of wide in terests.

"Last year the legislature of Oregon made an appropriation for statistical research, and a preliminary agri cultural survey was undertaken last summer under the direction of the Agricultural College. "Field agents secured about 1600 interviews, but, valuable! and varied as the information is, the financial end of it is very inaccurate and incomplete. "In the 1600 interviews secur ed a very small number reported that the fasts furnished were based on actual records; a large number reported that no records were kept except a simple bank account; while the great majority reported that no records were SPECIAL PRICE ON WAGONS FOR 30 DAYS ONLY 3-4 STUDEBAKER MOUNTAIN .GEAR, REGULAR PRICE $105.00 STUDEBAKER 2" SPECIAL AXLE CALIFORNIA WAGONS, HIGH WHEEL WITH14"RACK BED, REGULAR $180.00 3 3-4 "OLD HICKORY" MOUNTAIN GEAR, REGULAR $126.50 SPECIAL $ 87,50 SPECIAL 152.50 3-4 BAIN MOUNTAIN LAR PRICE $105.00 GEAR, REGU- SPECIAL SPECIAL 100,00 85,50 CENTRAL OREGON MERCANTILE COMPANY MADRAS, OREGON Sheriffs Saleon Execution CROSBY ui rurcciuburc THE DALLES 0REC0N By virtue of an execution and order of sale issued out of the circuit court of the state of Oregon for Crook coun ty, upon a judgment rendered in said court on the 21st day of October, 1912. n tavor 01 m auras a late jantc, a cor 3oration, plaintiff, and against W.
