HARNEY MAIL SERVICE
(Oregon Voter.)
It postal authorities only could
have some realization of what it
means to be cut off from decent mail
service, we are sure tbeir Indiffer
ence to the Harney county situation
would be overcome.
For years an agitation has been
conducted for a Bend-to-Burns mail
service, whereby from one to two
days could be saved by sending mail
via the direct instead of the round
about route. Yet little or no im
pression has been made upon the of
ficials who have the real say-so.
They are so used to hourly mail serv
ice that they cannot comprehend the
situation of those who are separat
ed by days from their neighbors in
their own state.
If any insuperable or even difficult
physical situation intervened to block
this Bend-to-Burns service, it would
be different. But state and auto
truck routes are open the year
through, daily, along this route, giv
ing better service than is possible by
the twice-as-long rail and stage
route over and through the moun
tains whereby the mail is handled
today. The ordinary dictates of
simple efficiency command the es
tablishment of this direct route.
And now, to add to the discrimina
tion against this Central Oregon
country, the mail service is to be
taken off from the branch line that
runs from Ontario to Crane, in the
direction of Burns, from the east. In
stead of being sorted on the train,
as heretofore, this mail is to be stort-
ea at Ontario, thus necessitating a
24-hour delay in mail that already
had been 24 hours too long en route.
Naturally the people of Burns and
other localities affected resent this
further imposition. Public senti
ment of Oregon should back them in
their effort to get a mail service
such as reasonably can be established
and maintained.

Jim The Penman
The greatest forger of his day, of international
renown, the other morning took his way, all foot
sore, to his native town. There were no greater
human sharks in all the records of the past; he
skinned unnumbered easy marks, and cleaned up
millions, first and last. And now we see him sadly
wend, to seek the town where he was born, without
a buck, without a friend, all in, world beaten and
forlorn. "Why, yes," the Village Fathers cried,
"there is a haven for you here; the poorhouse doors
are open wide rest there, 0 wreck of yesteryear."
There Jim the Penman found a stall, nor will he
leave those doors again; and there he sits, against
the wall, and thinks of all that might have been.
And to the poorhouse or the jail go nearly all the
kings of crime, whose crooked plans for reaping
kale use up the efforts of their prime. The man
who fairly earns his mon, by industry, can 'sing
and smile; the hoodooed dollar is the one thats
gained by trickery and guile.

A "Burnlnfj Well."
Water and fire aren't usually con
sidered good friends, but under certain
circumstances they may unite to form
an Interesting and beautiful natural
phenomenon. This Is the case near
Mobile, Ala., where for years a "burn
ing well" has been the center of at
traction for visitors and residents ,of
the city. Bored originally for'an ar
tesian well, the product of the hole
was a tremendous flow of salt water,
heavily charged with chlorine gas.
How this gas first took Are Is not
known, but burn It docs, and the dcen
orange flames, uninjured by the water,
not only spurt high with the flow of
the crystal stream and color Its white
foam, but they run along the circular
pool about the well In continuous
sweeps of bright color.
Celluloid Collar Swimming Aid.
The timid beginner can learn to
swim In ten minutes, It Is claimed. If
he wears about his neck the new
"swimming collar."
Tills collnr, ns described In Popu
lar Mechanics Magazine, consists of a
cylinder of transparent celluloid,
about eight inches high. Across the
bottom is cemented a rubber sheet
with a central aperture. The edges
of. the aperture fit snugly about the
neck. .. Thus the new swimming aid
holds the head above the water, and
recommends' Itself to fair swimmers
because It keeps the hair dry.
