An Artful Dodger
A PRIZE dodger of the Dodge tribe seems to be Mrs. Robert
Dodge, a New York woman who is in business as presi
dent of some cosmetic concern. Her dodge did not prove as
artful as she designed, for the customs inspectors opened up
her trunks and found she had loads of valuable dresses, furs
and jewelry which she had not declared properly. When they
got through Mrs. Dodge had to hand them a check for $213,
286 in order to get her Paris gowns and goods released.
It seems rather sporting to try to thwart the customs
duties. Dodging the inspector is something like dodging a
prohibition agent apparently. From the number of names
of.the wealthy and socially prominent who have been "caught
with the goods" and forced to pay very heavy penalties, one
might think this class would learn to be truthful with Uncle
Sam. They would at least avoid a lot of humiliating publicity
if they were.
The trouble with the rich dasses is that they think then
wealth entitles them to special consideration. They think they
can get by and that crdinary laws do not apply to them.
Their moral sense is notably deficient, and it takes the tonic
of fear of exposure to act as a moral bracer for them.
. Focr Mrs. Dodge will have to sell many a package of ar
tificial beauty to recuperate her "loss" of $21386, a for
tune in itself. Perhaps the advertising which this incident
gives her wiH stimulate sates so she can make it back quick
ly. For the moment, however, we not that ? he 'is at her
heme suffering' a , nervous breakdown. VYYch probably
means that the butler, the maid, the cook and the mere hus
band are getting the deviL !
Lumber Overproduction
LUMBERMEN who are finding the going desperate these
days look with no favor at all on the impending opening
up of new tracts of timber and adding to the mill capacity of
lumber. Up in Oafkamas county the S. P. has taken over a
logging road and announces extensions and Simultaneously
it is announced that seven new ntius will start cutting the
timber. Similarly the O. E. branches will throw onto the mar
ket fresh quantities of logs and lumber.
At present lumber orders are running under production,
and prediction is far under capacity. The West Coast asso
ciation has just voted for drastic, redaction in operating.
Lumber consumption has declined with the cessation in res
idential and farm buildings. Ust of substitutes has made
heavy inroads on the lumber business. No more mill capacity
is required fcr a number of years to come. The chum that
the timber is ripe and needs to be cut is partly true; but if
it can be milled and sold only at a loss pins causing a loss to
mills already running, what is the gain? The deterioration in
standing timber is alight over the spaa of a few years.
Lumber ia the biggest wealth-producing industry of the
state. It seems to get the least consideration from the gov
ernment, from the public, and from the press.
Collins Gets die Job
HENRY W. Coffins, Pendleton graia merchant, has been
appointed district manager for the farmers' grain cor
poration, the selling organization created at the instigation
of the federal farm board. This appointment was rumored
months ago. Senator Steiwer being credited with having
engineered it in return for Collins asnfwrt ia his own cam
paign. Collins is a big wheat man, interested in farms, ware
houses and mills.
A irood many of the people who have been lining up for
the cooperative movement have been people with warehouses
to, sell or who want jobs under the goternnaent-financed
boards. It becomes a question what Collins will do with his
warehouses. WH1 he sell them or lease them to the corpora
tion? He himself is known as a very able grain merchant.
He probably figures if the government is going to take over
the grain trade he had better go with it at a nice salary
rather than to try to buck the game atone.

CHAPTER XVII.
GIBBY could do nothing in
the matter, he couldn't make
search where better and
wiser searchers were covering the
ground.
He concluded to go home; it was
only right the tale should be passed
on to the others, so ho gave one
last glance at the busy squad ef
Dolice and their helpers, crvihaa
and official, who were making
notes and talking in low tones.
A tall skinny lad caste up to
him and said abrupenr:
"Ain't you a fnsaat el
Pennington folks?
"Yes." returned Gittr,
are yout"
"I'm the guy Murdoch get to
climb down there and help lain.
I can climb!" w
Gibby glanced at his lithe slim
ness and his muscular legs and
arms aad said he didn't doubt it
"Well, I can; so the plice they
hired me to go down and help
Murdoch, so I did. M unlock can
climb, too."
The last rather grudgingly.
"Well, what about it?" asked
Gibby, pretty sure the boy wanted
an honorarium.
"Why, this. After we. put the
lady in the hammock and the
fellers up above hauled her up, I
looked around to see what I could
see, and I found this. 'So I brought
it here to give it to Mr. Penning
ton, but he's gone, they say. So
can I rive it to vou?"
He held out a sable neckpiece,
of considerable value.
Gibby was a bit surprised (hat
he hadn't stolen it. but realized
that a superstitious person couldn't
do that.
"Yes, 111 take charge of it Pm
staying at Miss Duane's house, and
I'll eive it to the ladies there and

Penninrton."
He reached in his pocket, hot

"No, mister, l don't want no

the dead.

By R. I. HENDRICKS
Gold was discovered:
v
In California Jan. 25. 148. by
James W. Marshall and Stephen
Staats of Polk county and Capt.
Cha?. Bennet of Salem. Marshall
has been given all the credit. He
wrote to Rev. Jeese Harritt, a
Polk county neighbor, who, with
other neighbors, hurried to the
scene of the great find. Sarah
Hunt Steeves In her book "Book
of Remembrance of Marion coun
ty Oregon, pioneers," has the fol
lowing concerning Rer. Harritt:
s
"We have learned much of the
ministry of the leaders of the Me
thodist, Presbyterian and the
Baptist churches of early Oregon
history but it was given to the
Rev. Jesse Harritt. pioneer of
1845, to hold up the banner for
the United Brethren denomina
tion of that early date. His home
was really in Polk county, but
the whole state was his parish
and Marion county received a
goodly share of his endeavors, so
we feel the record "of this good
man deserves a place among those
for whom he labored most. He
was a native of the "Hoosier"
state, Indiana, born in 1818 and
joined the church pf his choice
at the age of 20. He really start
ed to the Oregon country in 1844,
going as far as the Mississippi
river, where he spent that winter
with his family.
"On April 29, 1845, he join
ed a company of about 64 wagons,
with Mr. James McKary aa cap
tain, and they started out from
their rendezvous on the Missis
sippi river and, like all other car
avans,, wended their tedious way
across the plains to Oregon. At
that time he was a young man of
27 years.
S
"Mr. Harritt kept a limited di
ary of their experiences during
this trip, and from these notes we
would infer that the journey was
quite uneventful. Some sickness
occurred a long the w&y and tome
loss of stock. He mentions the
death of two infants during the
journey, both of whom died from
whooping cough. According to
his diary, there was much dis
sension froni time to time among
the immigrants, as the train was
large. Part of the train would
divide, pass on, join forces with
some other train resting foe a
day, then divide again. Some
times it was a large -company and
again so small that in turn they
would wait by the trail for ano
ther train to catch up, as when
they reached the Snake river In
dian country, it was not safe for
small caravans to proceed alone.
There was safety in numbers.
Those mentioned as members, of
the train were very few, in com-'
parison to the great number of
folk who must have made up the
personnel of that immigration.
There were James McNary, Alex
McNary the John Packwoods,
Halls, Nobles, Glawser, George
Shafer, Hugh McNary and oth
ers. "Mr. Harritt tella? 0f a wedding
that was celebrated on May 9 at
Limestone Springs, about ten
days after they started out The
happy couple were Miss Margaret
Packwood and George Shafer.
"Mr. Harritt describes Platte
river as a stream about 600 feet
wide and only about two feet
deep at the deepest place where
they forded the river. He de
scribes Snake river where they
forded It near Fort Boise, as a
stream about three-fourth of a
mile wide, with gentle current
and a depth of about four feet at
Its shallowest place.
w
"At .this early date tbe immi
grants found plenty of grass for
their cattle at almost every camp.
After they reached Idaho and
Oregon, they found no water and
very little wood. Often scouting
parties had to be sent out to lo
cate water.
"When they arrived at The
Dalles they were happy In being
able to replenish their rapidly de
creasing food supply. This com
pany found plenty of buffalo and
Were amply supplied with meat,
but by the time the caravan had
traversed Idaho and eastern Ore
gon, where there was practically
no game, their larder was pretty
empiy. it was not safe, because
of-Indians along1 here, to do much
hunting. The price paid for flour
at this time was $8 per hundred
pound 8. Dried beans were only
S to 7 cents per pound potatoes
62 cents per bushel, wheat,
11.60 per bushel, coffee 33 ft
cents per pound, while tea was
S2 per pound. Sugar was 20
cents per pound.
"This party was surprised to
find such productive soil at The
Dalles and also to see the In
dians were already getting Inter
ested in farming. When the im
migration of 1842, '43 and '44
had come along, they found very
little food could be purchased at
this place, but the settlers began
to sit up and take notice, so by
1845 they were ready for the in
creasing immigration. -
V
K "A 11 fin! trie fttrhfkV ss)aa.Am
- - - - vva was u a vu
across the Cascades and the wo
men, children and all equipment
were taken down the Columbia on
flat boats.
"After arriving in Oregon,
about the middle of October,
1845, Mr. Harritt found his way
to what la now Polk county and
took up a donation land claim,
upon which he made hit home
and became one of the successful
farmers of the pioneer type.
"On October 7, 1846. he was
united In marriage to Julia F.
Lewis, a stepdaughter of James
McNary. Meeting in the Immi
grant train, this friendship ripen
ed into a deeper feeling that cul
minated la their joining forces
for life. .
S
"In 1848 Mr. Harritt went with
many of his acquaintances to the
miaes in California. He was In
duced to go by a letter received
from Mr. James W. Marshall, who
hat always-been given credit for
discovering gold in California.
Mr. Marshall had come out to
Oregon in it 41 sad had lived tor
a time la Polk covity, and It was
here Mr. Harritt became acquaint
ed with him. Mr. Harritt stayed
in the mines for one year and
returned to his Oregon home f 2,
000 richer and took up his fann
ing interests again.
DtirlnK all of this time. Mr.
Harritt had been much interested
in religious aetiTitie in the com
munity in which he lived and had
assisted elsewhere in this line of
work; to when the United Breth
ren annual conference met at Sub
limity, Marion county, in 1860.
Mr. Harritt was ordained an eld
er by the Rev. T. J. Connor, bish
op pro tem. Before he left his
eastern home he had been given
his 'exhorter's license and as ear
ly as 1856 had been received in
to the missionary conference of
his church, held at Rockhill
school house in Linn county, Ore
gon. Twice ho was elected re
siding eider and traveled all over
Oregon as an itinerant preacher.
Marion county being rather well
settled, much of his work was
done there. Those of the pion
eers who remembered him say
that his work in the ministry was
very fruitful, and at all times he
was beloved and highly respect
ed wherever known. He tilled
his own farm during the week
and in that way made his work
less of a burden on the new set
tlers. He gave liberally of his
own means to further the work
of the gospel and in time accumu
lated quite a considerable prop
erty to hand down to his children.
He kept open bouse to all the pi
oneer preachers at that time, no
matter what 'persuasion' they
were. He was calm and self-reliant,
a wise and safe counsellor.
He literally 'died in the harness'
with his faith undimmed, as pi
oneers expressed themselves at
that time.
"As one might haxe expected
of such a worthy pair, the chil
dren of this union grew up a
credit to their parents. These
children were;
"J. W., who first married Anna
Mclntlre and, upon her demise,
married Mrs. Rachel Earl, daugh
ter of the pioneer of '1847, Hiram
Johnson.
"Caroline, who married A. C.
Emniett.
"Byron W., who married Cor
nelia Bezemer.
"Elmer, who married Anna
Morrell.
"Mr. Harritt died at his farm
home on March 27, 1888. His
wife died at Salem, Oregon."
S
(J. W. Harritt and wife make
their home at 05 Union street,
Salem, and they take interest in
all matters relating to the good
of their state and section and ci
ty; especially In affairs that con

XT. S. Senator from New York.
Former Comnistioner of Health,
Hew York City,
MODERN research is doing
much to show us the mys
terious working of the hu
man body. A great deal of this
work relates to matters having a
direct bearing
on the life and
health of the
race.
New knowl
edge ef the
vitamins hat
made el ear
that tiny
traces of these
specific chemi
cal substances
are essential to
health. Thei
absence may
cause illnes or
even death for '
living crea
tures.
For long it hat been known that
certain minerals are present in the
organs of the body. Here they
work in mysterious ways. Recent
investigations are bringing new
nght ea this hi tweeting subject
Two eminent French scientists, p.
Dutoit and Christian Zbinden. re
cently made s report to the Academy
ef Science, In Paris. These men con
tend that the human heart contains
not only copper and aluminum, but
also a little silver. The lungs con
tain probatly all of the body's supply
of the rare metal called titanium.
The brain is said to be particularly
rich in tin. The pancreas, that
gland which produces insulin and
.makes possible out eating of sugar,
carries considerable quantities of
cobalt and nickel.
These interesting conclusions were
made possible by the use of an ex
tremely delicate instrument, the
spectroscope. By its use these metal
lic substances were found to be
present in the ashes from half a hun
dred or more human organs.
Just what are the duties of these
metallio element in the Intricate
mechanisms of the body T That is the
problem now before the scientists.
Physicists have, found that the
atoms of each element emit definite
wave lengths of Ught or ultraviolet
rays. This happens whenever these
atoms, are highly heated or electri
fied. Such rays are sorted out by
the spectroscope and iermlt the
atoms actually to be photographed.
We all know how important iron
is and how necessary it is that it
should be found in the blood. The
"hemoglobin" or red coloring mat
ter, which Is everywhere present la
the body, is aa Iron compound. With
the exception of Iron, the moat wide
spread metals in the human organs
are copper and- silver. They are
