Tho farmers feel, and their attitude is
completely reflected In the accresaive
poaitlon taken by senators from arl

board was unduly severe on tho farmer
during tho donation period which began
nearly two years ago. Tho banks of

money oa declining markets. The farmer
was eaoght In tho maelstrom of rulings
and advice by tho federal reserve sy

that deflation Is painful at boot and
that .the farmers had to take their medi

Symphony Is
ex
Kraxy Kat that highbrow of the
comic page, has at last been set to
music,,, Tho Chicago Symphony orches
tra has given a first performance of
"Kraxy Kat," a Jazz pantomime, by
John Alden Carpenter, which made an
instant hit The piece Is designed for
early, production by the Bohn ballet and
will probably be heard In Portland later
In the season.
Kraxy Kat which Is a dally feature
of The Journal's comic page. Is the
work of George Herriman. The novel
ist. P. G. Wodehouse. In trying to give
his impressions of It said: "My opin
ion Is that If George Ade,-Velasquex, the
Brothers Grimm and Lord Dunsany got
together and collaborated they might
have turned out something about as
good as Kraxy Kat but I think that
even then Mr. Herriman would have had
the edge on them."
The Chicago Symphony orchestra's
"Program Notia" says concerning the
new piece:
" "Kraxy Kaf was composed during
the months of June,- July and August
1921. It has not yet received stage rep
resentation. The orchestra for which
It has been scored comprises one flute
(interchangeable with piccolo), one oboe,
one clarinet one tenor saxophone, one
bassoon, two horns, two trumpets, one
tenor trombone, kettledrums, "traps."
harp, piano and strings. Concerning
the story of "Kraxy Kat Mr. Carpen
ter has kindly supplied the following for
this program :
" To ail lovers of Mr. Herriman's in
genious and delightful cartoons It must
have seemed inevitable that sooner or
later Kraxy Kat and Ignatx Mouse
would be dragged by some composer Into
music, I have tried to drag them, not
only into music hut onto the stage as
well, by means of what I have called,
for obvious reason, a "Jazs panto
mime." " To those who have not mastered Mr.
Herriman's psychology it may be ex
plained that Kraxy Kat is the world's
greatest optimist Don Quixote and Par
sifal rolled into one. It is therefore pos
sible fori him to maintain constantly at
white heat a passionate affair with Ig
natx Mouse, in which the gender of each
remains ever a delightful mystery. Ig
natx, on the other hand, condenses in
his sexless self all the cardinal vice.
If Kraxy blows beautiful bubbles, Ignatx
shatters them ; if he builds castles in
Spain. Ignatx is there with the brick.
In short, he is meaner than anything;,
and his complex is cats."'

Still colder weather was predicted for
Eastern. Oregon . and . Washington and

were sent over that entire district this

This cold wave, according- to E. L.

be the climax of the winter season for
this city.
"Before starting the mercury down the

other prank last night in an effort to
prevent entirely the use of automobiles
on Portland's streets.

Monday night a rain followed by a
heavy freeze again transformed all of
the streets outside of the business dis
trict into a glare of ice. Then, during
the night a blanket of snow varying
from one inch on the west side to three
inches in the outlying sections of the
east side was cast over the ice mantle.
Monday moring chains and ropes were

skidding, but this morning the snow sur
face clogged the non-skid instruments
and so the accident bureau was again
preparing for a busy day. Most auto
mobile owners left their cars at home.
The minimum temperature this morn
ing was 25 degrees, but this had moved
up to 28 degrees at 9 o'clock.
In self-defense, the weather forecaster,
after predicting Monday that warmer
weather and rains would be allotted

Oregon City, Jan. 17. A light mantle
of dry snow covered Oregon City this
morning, following a cold rain which be

are for a heavier snowfall. Automobiles
suffered most from the Icy coating that

Sunday night and Monday nine cara

corners as they failed to make the grade.
Vancouver, Wastu. Jan. 17. An inch
of snow fell in Vancouver Monday night

Indian Tribes Have Pow Wow
v.

Oregon Indian tribesmen and then
women, nearly 100 strong, from Coast
Range settlements, figuratively smoking
their pipes of peace, pitched their tepees
in Portland today preparatory to pre
senting their claim to congress for some
$12,500,000 for alleged violation of their
treaty righta.

remnants of nine tribes, nearly all of
whom have lost their identity and even
their traditions in the mists that clus

something lonely and desolate and mel
ancholy about the group as one re
called their primitive power and glory.
In their timid figures there waa no trace
of the mighty deerslayera and horsemen
and warriors of aboriginal days. Few
of them remain true to the originals in
face or feature. Intermarriage, alien
customs and the white roan's education
have changed them and perhaps sapped
their native boldness and strength and
made them dependent upon the pale
