GOVERNOR
A COLONISTS DAY
CALLS ON EASTERNERS
TO COME TO OREGON
Urges Capitalists Seeking Investments
U Take Advantage of Yat Oppor
t unities Abounding Witliiu State.
Salem, Or, Feb. 16. Governor
West has issued a colonist day proc
lamation, and coming on the heels of
the circulars being issued by the
central labor council of Oregon, pic
turing Oregon as a wilderness to be
shunned, its optimistic view
and ,
wholesome advice are timely. The
procllmation is a, call to those who
would come and achieve success from,
the bountiful resources of a great
state. It is as follows:
"Oregon is waiting for colonists.
Her unclaimed acres need settlers.
Farms need to be poopled and clear
ed, orchards to be planted and culti
vated, homes to be founded. The state
awaits investment and industrious and
well direct effort. For this it offers
unbounded opportunity, prosperity
and success.
City Man Should Walt.
"Oregon does not need the city
man, subsisting upon a daily wage,
except as he may follow the institu
tion of the factory, the workshop and
the business house, or the develop
ment and the cultivation of the
farm.
"Oregon needs investors, active men
with active money and efficient ef
fort. She needs energetic men to peo
ple the vacant places and reap the
abundant products of a fruitful soil.

the energy and the money to build
homes and achievo independence "in
the country.
"True prosperity demands that the
cities do not outstrip an.' over balance
the country. If we build up the coun
try districts, the cities will keep
abreast with their factories," mills,
shops and stores.
"It has been the custom in the past
to set aside a day to be known as
colonist day, at which time It has been
urged that all Oregon people write to
eastern friends, telling them of the
opportunities here and Inviting them
to cast their lots with us. It is prop
er, as loyal and patriotic citizens of
Oregon, for us to draw a true picture
of the state and its possibilities for
our eastern friends, for the truth
need no embellishment."
February 22 the Day.
"Now, therefore, I, Oswald West,
governor, by virture of the authority
in me vested, and in view of the fore
going premises, do hereby appoint
and proclaim Thursday, February 22,
to be known as colonist day through
out the state of Oregon, and I earnest
ly recommend that all the people on
this day write their friends and rel
atives in other states showing to
them the great possibilities of Ore
gon for the farmer, the stockralser,
the dairyman, the poultryman, the
fruitgrower for all productive Indus
ties in order that those whom Ore
gon needs may be Induced to Join with
us in the upbuilding and the develop
ment of our magnificent state."
HALF NAKED WOMEN WORK
IX EASTERN FOUNDRIES
- Boston. The richest man In New
England, Governor Eugene N. Foss,
of Massachusetts, and his executive
committee today are considering a
bill prohibiting women from work
ing In the foundries and iron manu
factories of the state. Investigation
by International Vice President O'
Leary of the Iron Moulders' union
shows that 700 women in Massachu
setts, which state prides itself on its
culture and laws for the protection
of the people, are ruining their health
in foundries by work which shortens
the lives of big, strong men.
After several months of inquiry,
O'Leary has laid the facts before
Governor Foss. who Is a big stock
holder in the textile mills at Law
rence, where the operatives are on
strike because they found the cost of
living overbalanced their incomes. In
testifying before the governor and
his committee, O'Leary said:
"I have seen women in the found
ries In your state, the supposed home
of culture, scantily and impromerly
clad, hauling wagons past the metal
ovens. The heat was so Stirling that
It was almost impossible to breathe.
The arms and shoulders of the women
were bared, their garmentj thrown
back at the neck, and their persons
exposed. The work is entirely too
much for them."
Blamed a Good Worker.
"I blamed my heart for severe dis
tresi In my left side for two years,"
writes W. Evans, Danville, Va., "but
I know now It was" indigestion, as Dr.
King's New Life Pills completely
cured me." Best for stomach, liver
and kidney troubles, constipation,

Rome. Considerable interest was
manifest oVfcr the promulgation of an
edict by Pope Pius ordering that all
cardinals and other dignitaries of
the church must refuse to attend so
cial functions where women appear
In decollete gowns. The Pontiff, who
has always been averse to the ex
treme in dress of any kind, believes
his jiew order will tend to do away
with low cut gowns in church circles.

100,000 SHEEP FOR
WENAHA RESERVE
Walla Walla, Wash., Feb. 16.
Sheepmen of the Wenaha reserve are
making active preparations for the
visit of the stork, which they are ex
pecting to 'bring them many thous-J
ands of wool producers within the
next two months. While it is still
early, many outfits in Eastern Wash
ington and Oregon have already been
compelled to provide shelter for their
mother sheep, but the heaviest work
will not be for several weeks yet,
when lambs by the thousands will be
born-
Most of the sheep grazed .in the
reserve by the Washington men are
at present at winter quarters on the
Snake rivor, though there are a few
bands wintering on Eureka Flat,
while in Oregon there are bands of
sheep distributed throughout the
sheep district on the large wheat
farms, where they are allowed .to eat
into straw stacks in udditlon to their
! dally hay feed. There are several
times more sheep in Eastern Oregon
than there are in this state, as the
Oregon country has more land fit for
sheep grazing. It is estimated there
are a trifle over 100,000 sheep to be
turned into the Wenaha reserve this
spring to graze during the summer,
and, allowing for diseases which
lambs are afflicted with in their in
fancy, sheepmen state a conservative
estimate or the increase in sheep will
be about 35 per cent from births.

Young Gorman ran home and told

Members of the train crew made
emergency repairs which carried the
train over the break safely. Con

EIRE PREVENTION
Salem, Or., Feb. 16.- That unnec
essary property loss by fire In the
United States amounts to $500 a min
ute and thnt practically all of this
loss could be prevented If people
were properly educated on fire pre
vention. Is the assertion made by
State Superintendent of Fublie In
struction I R. Alderman, who is pre
paring a bulletin on fire prevention
which he intends to introduce In the
public schools of the state as a sup
plementary reader.
I may be criticised for auuing
more material to our school course,"
said the superintendent, "but as pu
pils have to be taught how to read.
any way, I believe they might as well
be given practical, subjects to read."
Material for the bulletin has been
furnished by the Portland Associa
tion of Credltmen. Superintendent
Alderman says the subject Is of vast
Importance, as "all of us have to pay
our share of every Jlre loss In the
United States. These losses are as
sessed to the consumer. The fire loss
In the United States In 1910 was over
$250 000,000, according to Informa
tlon furnished for the bulletin.
"The distance from Portland, Or..
to New York city is 3181 miles. At
$10,000 a mile a splendid roadway
could be built between these two
places for $31,810,000. And eight of
these roads could be built with the
$250,000,000 we lose fty fire each
year. In one year we destrov over
half the value of all the new build
ings constructed In the United
States.
"And this Is not the worst of It.
Over H00 people lose their lives each
year by fire and many more tire In
jured.. In the last 15 years, 20,000
human beings have suffered the neonv
of death by burning and suffocation,
while 90,000 have been seriously In
jured, and yet the people do not seem
to realize the awfulness of It all."
Could No! Straighten Up
A Peculiar Condition Removed
Some time ago I was troubled with
pains in the back and kidneys, at
times could not straighten up after
bending over. Came to the conclusion
that. It wag my kidneys. Read Dr.
Kilmer's advertisement and made up
my mind I would try Swamn-Root
During the time taking the contents
of two bottles I passed two gall stones
of quite good size. Today I am free
from pains In the back and kidneys
for Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root remov
ed all the difficulty, and I can now
go about my work and have no trou
ble with my back or kidneys. I will
gladly recommend Dr. Kilmer's
Swamproot to any one suffering from
kidney or liver, trouble. You are at
