First Proposition on Ballot
IN the remaining days before the election The Statesman
will take up and discuss each proposition which is to be
voted on in the election of Nov. 4th. There are many im
portant political and economic questions coming up, some of
which have had scant consideration paid them.
The first proposition is a proposed amendment to the
state constitution for the repeal of the - state payment of
irrigation and drainage district interest. The numbers are
300, yes; and 301, no.
We recommend to the voters of the state to vote 300,
YES.
In 1919 the people adopted a constitutional amendment
by which the state would certify the bonds issued by irri
gation and drainage districts and would guarantee the in
terest for five, years. Under this amendment the state issu
ed $2,172,760 in bonds. The -districts almost without excep
tion are in default. The state hasr received, only $260,295
back from the districts and
its investment plus about two mmionoiollars of interest on
the bonds.
So costly has this experiment .proved that no new dis
tricts are being created under the 1919 amendment which
is thus practically; a dead letter. i
Gov. Pierce and Gov. Patterson recommended, the-repeal,
and the legislature passed the pTnftgX repealing
amendment. In order to clear the article otrtof ;,fhe consti
tution and prevent any future -irrigation -flajrmidef state
certification, the voters should vote 300, YfiSi

, Vaccination was first introdu

it had been common knowledge
that infection by cow-pox pre

noticed this in the rural country,
particularly on the farms.
One day Jenner took matter
from 'the hand of a dairymaid
who was Infected with cow-pox
and inoculated a young boy with
It. The boy was subsequently ex
posed to smallpox but did, not
contract the disease. This' was
the first successful attempt at
vaccination.
If everyone were vaccinated.
and the vaccination were repeat
ed at intervals not longer than
seven yea-s, smallpox would un
doubtedly cease to exist as a dis

tion, but victory would come.
Why not be fair to your chil
dren and have them vaccinated
at the recommended stated inter
vals, and surely shortly after
birth. As adults they can make
their own decision, but as chil
dren you must make it for them.
It requires bravery to be a
good parent. No one of us llkea
to submit a child . to pain and
even the most remote danger of
any sort. But each of us must
take the long view. We must
think of the future and not be
governed by the present.
Smallpox Is a dreadful ailment
and no chances must be taken re
garding it. It is a comfortable
feeling to know that vaccination
is a reliable preventive of this
dread disease.

CHAPTER 31
In the '-first tbree days after
her return to the city Ardeth had
no word from Ken. What meagre
news - she could glean from Jean
etl did little to relieve her
mind. Mrs. Gleason was ctese to
death. Ceelle was constantly at
the apartment.
This last a cold hand placed
on Ardeth's heart.
She tried to 'reason her fear
away. Of course she could not
expect Ken's attention at a time'
like this! She must not be so
petty.
Ah, but if she could only be
near him to eomiort mm, n
she could! To help him bear
this wearing anxiety. A wave of
bitter anger went over her at her
own helplessness. She could not j
even have the dubious comfort
of suffering with him. That place
was reserved for Cacile.
At night sne was airaia to
leave her hotel room lest Ken
should call her on the phone and
miss her. She snatched a hasty
dinner on her way up from the
shop, and spent the long nights
in her little aerie perched high
above the . city, waiting for the
telephone to ring.
She could not read, much less
settle down to sewing. Impossi
ble now to work on those pre
cious pink things which were to
form her trousseau.
She spent the hours pacing
the small room. Five steps
brought her to the window . . .
For the most part she sat look
ing out over the dark roots to
where the upflung lights of
downtown painted the low-hanging
clouds ruddy.
. The Christmas rush " in the
stores was far removed alien.
Strange that it should be near
Christina's. There was no holiday
in her heart. All things were
swept away by this strain of
waiting ...
Eleven. Eleven-thirty Silly to
wait up any longer. He would
not phone tonight. Slowly she
prepared for bed, her hands list
less, her heart heavy.
She was awakened out of trou
bled dreams by the shrill peal of
the phone.
She was there, dinging to the
transmitter, speaking nervously,
without any recollection of get
ting there. '
Ken's voice coming over the
wire such a strange, tight voice.
"I have to ft yon, Ardeth.
Just have time for a fewjnln
utes. My only chanee. Will you
meet me downstairs it I drive
around to the hotel?"
"In fifteen minutes," If e
promised.
' She hung up. Snapped on the
lamp. Two-thirty. Her i heart
leaped. What could have caused
Ken to call at such an bout? r' t
; Suddenly she began te shake
with a nervous chill, her teeth
chattering, hands so cold ' and
clumsy that she had trouble- put
ting on her clothes. She, slipped
into her heavy coat. Palled her
hat on, regardless. Across 'the
room her own figure moved in
the depths of the mirror; a
glimpse of a white face, and wide
eyes as she let herself out of the
door::
who were listening to William Ran-
r - ... . .
She- wineed at the, creak of the
automatic elevator aa she pressed
the button. A strange, frighten
ing time to be going out!
The street before the hotel
was cold and deserted and she
huddled In the doorway until
Ken's car shot around the cor
ner. He did not greet her. Nor did
he get oat. Just leaned over and
opened the door, barely waiting
until she slipped into the seat be
side him before he started . the
engine again.
The girl's arms clung to him
In alarm as the dark streets
reeled by. A bleak change had
come over Ken in the last few
days. The whole outline of his
face had sharpened and some
thing of gaUant youth had been
wiped away.
She was tremulously aware of
something tragic lying between
them"; Aware and afraid. Don't
speak . . . words voujd bring it
out of the shadows. Words
would bring disaster.
She put out a hand and touch
ed the sleeve of his overcoat as
though to convince herself of bis
nearness. Without taking his
eyes from th street ahead, Ken
snatched that hand and held Uj
hard against his lips for a mo
ment. "Ken, how "
"Not here. We can't talk ntw.
I want to look at you." He steer
ed painstakingly about a taxi.
"But your mother "
"She's still alive."
Silence.
She could only wait, anxfous
eyes devouring 'his set profile.
A small, dark park suddenly
loomed in their path. Ken swung
the machine Into the drive. The
headlights gleamed on glossy
shrubs, seeming a" theatrical
green in the glare-. Then black
ness rushed about them as he
stopped the engine and snapped
eft the current. The watching
girl could barely make out his
face by the dim glare of an arc
light some distance away ....
"Well . . ." he turned to her,
speaking still in that new tight
voice, "now we can talk. But we
mustn't take too long; I have to
get back. I had to see you
though. To tell you to tell you
I'm going to marry Cecile."
She sat "as still as some small,
stunned animal.
He drew in his breath Jn a
'whistling' sigh. "Tomorrow at
S, In St Matthew' Church. The
church my mother was married
In." He was painf illy precise.-
"Oh!" Then, sharply as the
new sunk in. "Oh!"
She was crying in his arms,
her face pressed hard against
the rough weave on his over
coat. Dreadful tears. Tears torn
out of her heart. Scalding tears.
"Don't sweetheart . . . Ah,
don't . . ."His husky voice came
smothered against ber hair. He
had putted off her hat, pressed
bis face down on her head.
Madness bursting in her brain
like a flash of red light. She
had snatched his face down in
an agony of defiance, her words
came fiercely smothered against
his lips.
"No! You can't! You're mine.
Mine mine "
"Sweetheart, listen" Gently
he thrust her away. Holding her'
hands down In her lap with one
of his own. Still he spoke In
that tense, unnatural voice.
"My mother is dying," he ;
gulped. "She knows It. She asks
only one thing. That 1 . marry
Cecile.' What can I do?"
No answer but her torn sobs.

tortured. "If you'd seen her eyes
when I said I would. She tried
to smile."
"Oh, it's wrong!" rose her
muffled wail. "No one can live
another's life."
"Of course ifs wrong!" his
voice broke. "But what can I
do? It's that, keeping her alive.
How can I wipe that look off
her face. Dying she is! All my

"But we love each other! Oh,

Straining her gaxe up to his
chalky face and shadowy eyes. A
look in his eyes which turned
him to a stranger. Bitter . . .

She gave a little broken cry.
Ken had already given her up

Agnes Laut. In "The Fur
Trade of America," says: "In the
historr of the world only one
corporate company has maintain-,
ed empire over an area as large
as Europe. Only one corporate
company's sway has been so ben
eficient that its profits have
stood in exact proportion to the
well being of its subjects."
w s s
She refers to the Hudson's
Bay company. Their charter of
1869 or 1670 designated them
the "Adventurers of England
Trading into Hudson's Bay,"
called now the -Hudson's Bay
company, and stfll trading with
savages in the white wilderness
of the north as it was when
Charles II gave a royal grant for
the fur trade to his cousin Prince
Rupert Aad Prince Rupert, first
governor of what was designated
as "Prince Rupert's Land," a
country of unknown extent run
ning west from Hudson bay, was
succeeded by the Duke 61 York
(James II); and the royal gov
ernor by a line of distinguished
men down to Lord Strathcona,
the empire builder, who so long
controlled the destinies of the
Canadian Pacific railroad.
.
Their chief factors, like Dr.
Mr. Loughlin, have ruled empires
in extent with greater than king
ly power; under the egis of par
liamentary law. Their forts have
for nearly 300 years dispensed
hospitality and help with a more
lavish hand than the ancient
baron in bis castle.
S
In the far north, yet, the bea
rer wkin is the unit of coin, as it
was when Dr. McLoaghlin ruled
the old Oregon country. The Es
kimo hunter, whose knowledge
of arithmetic Is confined to his
two hands, eomes to the trader
with bis winter's catch. The
trader holds up one, two or three
fingers, as the case may be,
meaning that he offers the val
ue fat terms of one, two or three
prime beaver skins. If the Eski
mo demands more, they bargain
with their fingers until an agree
ment Is reached. The value is
paid' In a blanket, a shirt beads,
powder, knives, traps, tobacco,
etc. 1 etc.
V m
From out of the north come
ermine, "fox, - rynx, mink, marten,
otter, and all the long list rep
resenting values in furs and
skins and hides. The precious
catches come In ox carts, by boat,
by dog sleds; In a dozen other
ways. The aggregate of the trade
is enormous. There Is still an em
pire In extent of territory.
S
It runs to the Eskimos under
the Arctic circle; takes in the
wandering Montagnais from the
domed hills of Labrador; the soft
voiced Obijways in that vast land
of spruce amd tangle far north 'of
the Great Lakes; the Crees and
Sioux from the plains; the Black-
feet and the Crows, the assassins
amd thieves of our covered wagon

Over these lawless Arabs of the
New World wilderness the Hud
son's Bay company rules yet The
ancient treaties with most of the
tribes give them hunting, trap
ping and fishing rights as long
as "the sun rises or the river
flow," and there are no game
laws they are bound to observe.
But the factors ot the great com
pany make game laws and laws
of all kinds, and enforce them
by the rules of trade. Even laws
against murder.
That company has ruled a sav
age empire for nearly three cen
turies, devoted to the most dan-
geroifs callings in the world; yet
the whole era has been one of
peace and order suffering no dis
credit by comparison with the
wars and strife and sin and deg
radation of so-called civilized so
ciety with its wars and lust and
licentiousness, and its deaths and
accidents from industrial and
other causes; from the racket
eers of our big cities to our
wrecks on highways of the land
and of the sea and air.
What of the moral state of the
Indians of the far north, under
the rule of the great and ancient
fur trading company? Every vis

found the Indians such devout
Christians that they put his
white retinue to shame.
Returning to civilization, the '
official was observed attending
the services of his own denom
ination with greater regularity
than was his wont, and taking a
greater interest in the affairs of
his church. Asked the reason, he
confided to a club friends that he
would be blankety blanked if he
would allow heathen Indians to
be better Christians than he was.
V s s
Some of the Indians get into
debt to the great company, for
supplies without which they
would suffer from hunger or
starve. But the debt Is never col
lected by taking, any of the sup
plies of the hunt that should &j
to feed a family.
Of how many other creditors
may that be said? Of how many
companies that it has cared for
the sick, sought, the lost, fed th
starving, housed the homeless?

That attitude towards the In
dians is what has kept the peace
largely, for over two centuries.
