The ery interesting meeting of broccoli growers held 'yesterday afternoon at the Salem Commercial Club rooms phowed that a number of growers, members, of the Salem ; Broccoli Association, representing considerable acreage, and . potential returns of a good many thousands of dollars, have not yet made marketing j arrangements Although the Oregon j Growers' Cooperative Association . has already made its packing and marketing arrangements, "and bought Vie crates, for about 100 cars for its members in this district. ; f Now that' the industry in this district is thus far along, With promising prospects for a very good crop, considering 'that it is the first year for nearly all the growers, none of jthe coming crop ought to be allowed to go to waste For the growers need the money; and the community needs the money, and the most should be made of this initial crop, In Ordor to encourage the planting of a much larger j acreage next yvear, and in future years " , For, instead of, say, 125 cars going out of the Salem dis trict this year, thousands of cars ought to roll to market in future years.

I must say that I disagree with him and that 1 think it is C. A. Huston who is oft on the wrong foot. . All laws should have for their foundation the promotion of hon esty and fairness between men and men, if not they are not good laws. I claim that a man having a debt he can pay and does not pay when asked to, is not honest. Now this bill was made purposely to help such dishonest fellows to stand off old debts, and conse quently : is not a good bill and should not become a law. Allow; me at the same time to say a good word for the 14 sena tors. I have seen so much abuse and sarcasm dug tip about them in the papers, ' especially in the editorial colmns of the Portland Telegram, that I am getting sick of it. I ; want to ask if they did not have a right to do as they did? It would not be a wonder if they have come to the conclusion that the people of this state have all the taxation they can stand now It don t take a proophet to see, if they keep on increasing taxes till me point mat it takes an or a little more than the Income of pri vate property to pay the taxes. then the government will get all the property, and then we will have socialism,' communism and anarchism.

Ono late January day the red sun was sinking when a traveler drove up to the house. His mud stained, bedraggled clothes showed j that he had ridden fast and far-. Mr. Hilary, proprietor of Hilary house, put the traveler's tired hom in the barn, while Mrs. Hilary hurried to fix a hot supper. "It's a bad time to be out." said Mrs. Hilary, addressing the new comer, as she brought in a steam ing dish. "It 1 looks like snow. And It's not safe, either. My son just came up from town and he. was saying a robber broke out of Jail there. You might meet him on tho road."

East Negotiations WASHINGTON. 'Jan. 11 (By The Associated Press The "big five" made further -progress today in their final revision of the naval treaty, but encountered: a differ ence of opinion when they came to lay down rules for the scrap ping of prescribed batuesnips. For the Aerlcan delegation, it was proposed that the surplus ves sels be rendered useless. Prance readily supported that vtew, with Italy indicating a similar attitude. Great Britain and Japan withheld assent, however, the suggestion being made that the dismantled ships might he used as harbor guards or training vessels. When the five delegation heads adjourn ed after several hours of debate the question remaind unsttled and will be taken ; up again to morrow. During their two ses sions today however, they had completed approval of the first of the treaty annexes, .embodying a replacement chart, and they ex pressed the hope that ail five an nexes might be disposed of to morrow or Friday. Paciriti Article Vnfinhibed Except for the article dealing with Pacific fortifications, all of the text of the treaty proper al ready had been virtually approved and should Tokio's reply on, the fortifications provisions be re ceived in time a plenary session may be held Saturday or Monday. Indications that an agreement will not be difficult were support ed by a declaration of a Japanese spokesman tonight that he saw no objection to including Bonin is land and the Osbima group In the "status quo" agreement on forti fications. It is said to have been over the islands that the issue re ferred to Tokio arose. . Negotiations Resumed While the delegation chiefs were continuing discussions today the Japanese and Chinese re sumed their interrupted negotia tions over Shantung and reached a tentative agreement regarding withdrawl of the Japanese troops within tho province. Meantime, also; some members of the delegations begun to lay plans for resumption of the gen eral Far Eastern' negotiations, which will follow: ' completion of the naval treaty. : For the Japan ese, it was predicted that the Chi nese plea for consideration of the "21 demands" would be o'kly threshed out by the Far Eastern committee, a view fna seemed to be supported by American official opinion. Other IkYTOes Important There was Increasing evidence however, that the; American dele gates regard settlement 'of other pending Chinese situations as of great Importance and that actual signing of the naval treuty proo ably would be delayed until the Edited by John H. Millar in, almost blinded by the snow. He had led his hbrse to the post outside, and Mr. ' Hilary put the animal in the barn while the- trav eler thawed himself out. By morning the drifts were up to the window sills and piling still higher, and by nightfall of that day the two travelers realized that they would remain at Hilary House for many days. Time did not drag, .however,. Mr. and Mrs. Hilary and their son were jolly people and the house was warm and cherry. The two strangers proved to be fun-loving young men, and they passed the time telling stories, playing chess and enjoying each other like old chums. "I hate to see them go." re marked Mrs. Hilary, the day her husband managed to break a path to the main road, and the two travelers left. "I guess they hate to leave each other, too. They got along so well." "Mother," called her son ex citedly, "when they came to the main road they shook hands and one went north anad tho other south:" ."What's so , strange about that?" aha asked. "One of them." he said, "was the new sheriff. Didn't you know? The other .was that robber who escaped from jail last week. I saw his picture on the reward pos ters. I wonder- -if they both knew " ?

MY HEART ID Adele Garrison' New REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Chapter 269 WHAT DICKY'S GREETING WAS. I read between the lines of Mrs Ticer's narrative an explanation of something that had puzzled me for several days. This was the wide-eyed, almost offensive, curiosity with which her husband, Sam Ticer, had regarded me. I guessed that Mr. Ticer, a small, slender, rabbit-faced man. would have been a facile tool in the hands of the pseUdo Mr. "Bridgeraan" if it had not been for the sturdy honesty and com mon sense of his Amazonian spouse. "Somebody blatted to Jake that your husband was comin' down to day," Mrs. Ticer went on, "an Jake he let-It out to Ticer that he was goin' to be on the road to the station and meet you. I bus picioned he'd be doin' somethin' of the kind, because he's been so possessed to see you. so I thought I'd come along and take a hand." "How can I ever thank you, Mrs. Ticer," I said fervently. "Land! That hain't nothin!" she rejoined heartily. "It was Just fun for me. I wouldn't have missed seem' Jake's face turn all colors of the rainbow when I reminded him of that kickin' -not for the best mess of kingfish that ever come out of Noyack.'V She sat silent for a minute or two,, evidently turning over with rel'sh the episode in which she had just played the leading role. Then with a last reminiscent chuckle she turned to me. Mrs. Ticer's Suggestion. "Jake Wilsey won't make you no more trouble while you stay around here," she said with a con-; fidence that I shared when I re membered the look upon Mr. "Brldgeham's" face as he retreat ed to his car. "But you watch out for him when you git back home unless he's scared you know about his breakin' into that house-1 told you about. But that's so long ago. I s'pose there wouldn't be nothin' doin about it now the sheriff and the owner of the house is both dead years so I guess you would not have nothin' to hold over his head, an' he'll .probably reason that out when be comes to from the scare I give him." "I shall have his movements watched when I get back home," I replied. "Don't worry about me. I am not in the least afraid of him." I tried stoutly to make myself believe that I was speaking only the truth, but deep in my heart I knew that I was an unconscionable falsifier. I was afraid ot Mr. "Bridgeham" or Jake Wilsey his real name, according to Mrs Ticer's assertoin, and I knew that I should have many uneasy moments before the problem which he concretely typified was solved. "I'm glad to hear that," Mrs. Ticer said. "And now, dearie, you'd better put on a little more gas. I thought I heard that train whistle down Southampton way, and even if we are pretty near there you'll have to stop and let me out, you know, before you meet your husband. Lucky we're on this road leadin" .through the Culvert under the railroad. You won't have to stop for no tracks nor be nervous about the flyer comin' through." A Parting Promise. "I'm not going to let you out," I said quietly, though I had a de cided qualm at the thought of Dicky's face when I should intro duce him to Mrs. Ticer with her flamboyant hat, before the fash ionable, crowd the train always brought, "i want you to come with me and meet my husband." Mrs. Ticer's face flushed with pleasure, but she shook her head stubbornly. - "wnen you re as old as I am, dearie," she said with a little smile, "you'll learn that husbands ain't anxious to meet anybody else when they're comin' to see their wives what they haint seen for two or three weeks. No, you do as I say, let me down at the next corner, and tonight I'll come over to the camp and. see if you want to come to the elder makin to morrow. But, remember, now, if ahythin' should , happen that he don't come, you drive back to this corner. I'll wait here till you have plenty of time to do it." There , was an air of finality about her little speech that I saw was best met by a prompt acquiescence. Therefore : I de posited her at the corner she had designated, but I left a parting wora with her that I resolved should be confirmed even at the cost of a quarrel with Dicky. "I'm coming to the cider mak ing tomorrow, anyway," I said, as I drew the car to the curb for her to alight. ' "You couldn't keep me away." "You'd better get to that sta tion," she replied smilingly. Jumping- from the machine with an agility that a woman 20 years younger and SO pounds lighter might have envied. "That train's almost in." I nodded and shot away, from the curb. It was only a short distance from the station, and I brought my car to a stop just as tho train steamed in. I was step ping to the platform when: Dicky stalked up to me, suit case in hand, his face registering surprise and displeasure. i r "Who taught Ton to "drive?" he MY HUSBAND 'VI f i r Phase of ! demanded. v ti. ; v-(To he continued) ri I THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 12. 1922 FOR SATURDAY Machinery is Started by Griffith to Put New Treaty in Operation DOCUMENTS ARE MOVED De Valera Says He Expected to Ignore Parliament Called Saturday DUBLIN.

Action Through Cabinet An Important development to day was the issuance of a mani festo by the Irish ; labor party stating that labor would partici pate in the elections to secure rep resentation In the new free state government. The method adopted in summoning those , who are to ratify the treaty is held to Indi cate that the Dritsh desire to avoid friction In the transference of ihe authority.
