Eleanor Kirk's Idea. the Maori schoolboys will tell you that America Is dominated by its rich men and corporations ami distracted with labor upheavals. To all mankind we seem 'o have become the awful ex ample. "Often in Switzerland and Germa ny 1 was startled to find how keenly, even to the minutest dotulK our troubles had been noted, and here In New Zealand not a line of their sig nificance was overlooked In the dis cussions provoked by the new meas ures, 'l et us have no trusts here as they have In America,' men said. 'Lot u have nothing like the American railroad companies, bribing legisla ture and watering stock.' 'The strikes in America are terrible calamities; we mun not have such things here." "The newspapers teemed and still tean- with such comments; and if we have done 111 for ourselves we have at least done well tor our neighbors, since every disastrous effect upon America of the unequal distribution of earnings and of opportunity has been a spur to the regeneration of Xew Zealand." It Is retlly a little strange Isn't It, that Canadian coal can be delivered from'ppokine at a rate of $2 per ton and THE NEWCOMERS. This vear the Harrtman railroad has brought into the state of Oregon 9014 hom.s-ekers. against but 7072 last ve.ir, an Increase of H'4".

If Pendleton had some source ' of coal supply beside the Wyoming I mines the present shortage would not a ' exist, perhaps. Why cannot coal from j Fornix, Crow's Nest Pass and other i Canadian mines be shipped Into Pen dleton jit all times'' Why must it be neces-.iry to make a special rate under ptessure of a scarcity, to sup ply this entire district with coal? It look? a thouRh the railroads had parcelled the territory among them selves regardless of the needs of the country and all that can be done by the people Is to accept the situation. doesn't allow them to run around In the wet and tho cold. They have dry living quarters, comfortable like his owni. They don't hlver In a wet barn yard, nor steam In fence corners nor under an old Bhed. "I. arse numbers of farmers neglect their chickens or give them poor care, and the result la scarcity of eggs. They need to wake up to business. The old Idea that Oregon winters ate too wet for laying Is exploded. The hens can he kept out of the wet." Medium weight hens are best for winter eggs, says Mr. Iiallev. such as Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes or Rhode Island Hods. Careful atten tion to breeding must be given, ns In building up milch cows In the dairy. Just as cows that yield Mttle milk should ho culled from the dairy, so hens that lay few eggs should be given place to larger producers. An Indispensable aid to such work is the keeping of a dally record of etch hen, so that the lagging fowls can be picked out from the busy ones.

"There's no good excuse for a scarc ity of eggs In Oregon," he declared last night before a group of citizens who were grumbling at 40-cent hen fruit. The hen may have to work hard to produce the eggs at this time of year was the sentiment bf the auditors, but the consumer has to work harder to get the money for the price. They wordered what was the matter with the barnyard fowl in Oregon, that it did not do Its full duty In the tem perate Novembers of this rtate. But they were finally rounded up by Mr. Eailey, who declared: "Hatch chickens In March In 'Incu bators, and keep them out of the rain and the cold the next winter and they will lay," and forthwith he told of o man named Tucker In Jefferson, Ore. who, from 24 hens, has been gath ering IS and 20 epzs a day this month.

Bert Morphy says farewell to Port land today for a whole long year, says the Telegram. He leaves for Phoenix. Ariz., and not until next summer will he return to Portland, which he de clares Is the greatest spot In the world outside of old Ireland Itself. Of course you know Bert Morphy. There Is but one Morphy not Mur phy and he Is the "Man who sings to beat the band." All Portland knows him, and he is as well known from one part of the country to the other. Morphy has what Is believed to be the strongest voice In the world, yet there have been times years ago when it looked very much as though he would have to forget that he was a singer and get In and do hard work to Keep body and soul together. He has been In the business 16 years, but now it Is a common thing for him to enter Into $500 per week contracts, nnd sometimes even more. The greatest trouble he has had In his business has been to make people who have not heard him believe that he can sing to a brass band accom paniment. While he was at The Oaks this summer the Portland newspapers were full of articles of the great hits lie made. But despite this people- could not believe what they read until uie nearu mm witn tneir own ears. Boise City, Idaho, planned a big fair and wanted a star attraction. The committee heard of Morphy, but sent several men to hear him sing with a brass band before they would engage him. and he went there with a fat contract after the close of The Oaks. Phoenix sent a man to Boise to hear htm. and he obtained another big contract. It Is exceedingly hard for him to get an engagement at a place where he has not appeared, and It Is a common thing for committees to be' dispatched long distances to hear j him sing. J "I can write bushels of letters and send press notices galore to managers, and if they have never heard me war ble, or rather yell, they will not be lieve that I can sing with a band," laughed Morphy yesterday at the Ho- i tel Portland. "Once they hear me ' tear off a few. notes when a band la playing Its loudest the contract Is as good as signed. "When I made a tour of England i I came near starving to death before j I could secure an engagement. I made quite a name for myself In the United States, and then thought 1 could Invade our European cousins. 1 landed in London with a trunkfull of i press notices, and immediately sought ' out the music hall managers. I top them what I could do and they laugh- I ed at me. They thought I was either a fool joker or a candidate for the daffy-house. For weeks I hung around I those managers, anil they began to ! look upon me as a village pest. The I claim that I could sing and be plainly ' heard w ith the largest band In Eng- land they regarded as absolutely ab- urd. "In sheer desperation I decided to j hire a band of my own and show I them. I engaged a band of about CO , pieces, hired a hall and then made a ! hustle for the managers. Many of . them attended because they thought i if they saw me make a fool of myself that the village pest 'would bothor them no more. Well, I made good. and at the conclusion of the concert had more offers than I could han dle." Morphy Is virtually ostracized from the theaters or vaudeville houses. Several times he tried to appear In vaudeville, but got fired. In nearly ail vaudeville programs from three- to four of the acts are singers. Morphy sang so loud that when he was fol lowed by some average vocalist the voice of the latter sounded like the buzz of a mosquito. The other musi cal acts dwindled Into Insignificance and the complaint raised by the other performers was of sufficient volume to cause the managers to fire Morphy. Once Morphy tried to break Into grand opera. His powerful voice, with Its wonderfully penetrating qual ities, drove the other members of the troupe Into distraction and they went on strike. As a result Morphy was turned out. So he took to singing with brass bands, and now he makes a small-sized fortune every year. He makes more than many of the famous grand opera singers and has no as pirations now for grand opera or vaudeville. Morphy does not claim to be a De Ilezko or a muHlcil prodigy, but he says he Is a musical freak, and what Is more that he Is proud or it. ills voice Is natural and has never been cultivated. Ho admits that It has many rough spots In It which' could be detected by critics were he to appenr In opera, but that when singing with a band they ennnot be detected. He has a wonderful articulation, und no matter how big the hand when singing everv word ho utters can be heard very distinctly. He hurls out the syl lables like a shot from a cannon, and It Is said no band has ever been able to drown his voice. ham's Vegetable Comnound. When I com menced taking the Compound I suffered everything with backaches, headaches, and How often do we hear women say: "It seems as thouph my back would break," or "Don't speak to me, I am all out of sorU"? Thesesipnillcantremarks prove hat the system requires attention. Backache and " the blues" are direct symptoms of an Inward trouble which will sooner or later declare itself. It may be caused by diseased kidneys or some derangement of the organs. Nature requires assistance and at once, and Lydia E.

Holmes, of Larimore, North Dakota, writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham: " I have suffered everything with backache and female trouble I let the trouble run on until my system was in such a condition that 1 was unable to be atout, and then it was I commeuced to use Lydia Pinkham's Vege table Compound. If I had only known how much suffering I would have saved I should have taken it months sooner for a few weeks' treatment made me well and strong. .My bnckachtti nnd headaches are all zone and I suffer no min at mv monthlv pedotls. whereas before I took Lvdia K, PinkhnnVa Vegetable Compound I aulfered intense pain." Mrs. Emma Cotrely. 109 East 12th Street, New York City, writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham; " 1 feel it mv duty to tell all suffering women of the relief I have fouud in Lydia E. Pink- isk Mrs. Pinkham' Advice- Woman Best Understands female troubles.
