What's New On The Market Bluokberrlcs are a drug on the market. Due to the tact that many people go out and pick what they need, the demand Is not keeping up with the supply. Mer chants arc already turning away affcrlngs from cultivated patche3. The price, due to these conditions, may aeem a Utile high at four boxes for a quarter, but those ho take the trouble to pick and bring the berries to market de maud a fair return. Himalayas are offered In greater quantities, the Evergreens having just com menced to ripen. Tomatoes are also coming In plentifully, the price of four pounds for a quarter may drop within the next few days. The first fresh parsley was offered on the market this morning for eight cents a bunch. Celery was offer ed for 10 cents, but the reduction was not general. The condition of this vegetable has somewhat im proved within the laRt week. Summer squash offered at IS cents does not seem to be mov ing. This Is a reasonable price at this time of year and there should be no lack of demand. The squash are large and In good condition. Sllverslde salmon may be ex pected soon. The price will prob ably be 12Vi to IK cents n pound, and less for the whole fish. Chi nook Is reported scarce. Newport fisherlels rslsed their price a cent yesterday, hut no advance on tlic retail price of 18 cents Is ex pected here. Becnuse of the sup nlv of sns trout now on the mar ket, dealers state that It hardly pays to handle cod. the consum ers much preferring the former selling nt the same price. As a consequence little cod will be of fered for Friday. 1925 Prosperity In the celebration at Portland last night over the passage by congress of a resolution inviting nations of the world to participate in the proposed Portland 1925 exposition, Mayor Baker declared "in stentorian tones" above the "iovous din of fair boomers," that the exposition "means four years of woik lor all classes and prosperity for all." mi 11 j ne ceieoration, together with ' the state tour of the Portland Ad Club, is part and parcel of a systematic plan to "put over" the exposition by means of public bond issues after the public has been committed to the proposition. The city of Portland according to boomers' plans, is to be asked to vote fair bonds of $3,000,000 and the state of Oregon to vote bonds of $2,000,000 the proceeds of which are to be expended in construction of the exposition. Every effort will be made, as is customary in nrooaoran-Ia oi tnis sort, to make exposition bonds and patriotism nynonymous ana to discredit opposition as unpatriotic arid to deride opponents as state and community knockers, and vote the bonds by. noise and enthusiasm engendered by the smau coterie wiio protit. The slogan of "bonds and prosperity for all" has a familiar ring. It has been used to plunge the state and every com munity in it, head over heels in debt. The prosperity en- Kenuerea is mat oi the man who mortgages his home to spend the proceeds in unnecessary unproductive improv ments and through the years to come must sweat to pay off tne aebt. While the money is being spent it creates a false prosperity that rests on debt and not on producing assets and the ensuing depression of reaction frequently offsets any temporary gain Becured by the influx of labor and peo pie to secure work. For the two million dollars the people of the state are to be asked to vote, which will be spent entirely in Portland the state is supposed to profit by the advertising received There is no question of the profit resultant to site owners and contractors and those on the exposition payroll, or to the hotels, restaurants and stores of Portland by the expendi tures of these millions of public money, and to the railroad companies, but whether the under-developed state will profit two million dollars worth by the increased development of the already over-developed metropolis, remains to be seen. If the people vote additional bond issues of millions on an already over-bonded state, to make business good for Port land lor a little while, talk of lower taxation is wasted. No possible economy of administration can offset the increased taxation thereby incurred. It is also a question whether or not the high rate of taxation forced on property will not do more to deter capital from investment than an exposition can accomplish in attracting capital. aWS-S f5)!cac& puts 'jj&jl fffit than wagfc t - a up a oiftftct- (2) Press, or the Jack of It, is women's way of cnrAciittg men..

Tuition For Non-Residents Part of the high cost of higher education in Oregon has been due to the fact that both the Oregon Agricultural col lege and the State University have been educating the stu dents of other states on the same terms as those of the students of Oregon several hundred students a year receiv ing free tuition at the expense of the taxpayers of Oregon. It has always been a mystery to taxpayers why this con dition was tolerated by the regents of the two institutions and the only plausible excuse was the desire of the ambitious institutions to become the greatest in the country. The more students, the more need for additional facilities, for more ouuaings, more instructors, more money, nence tne Dars political ways the led bare had little choice. Happily, the old order were thrown (JOWIl ailU those lrom Other States welcomed to. Is passing. Hut never in history has been a greater call for clear swell the attendance. The growth has evidently been too rapid for the taxpayers refuse to vote additional funds, so the educational institu tions must look to neglected sources of revenue. Hence the! regents have wisely decided to charge a $60 annual tuition fee for non residents which for the number enrolled will Dring in irom !piU,uwi to 6Q,UUU annually. 11 the non residence attendance diminishes, so much the better for over crowded institutions. The only possible criticism is that such a charge was not made years ago. It should be made large enough to cover the actual par capita student cost. "If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall Into the ditch. Matthew 15-14. What a mighty condensation of philosophy was given the world when Jesus gave us the rule. In this world there are only two divis ions those who lend, and those who are led. Those who are led, under our organic law, may choose the leaders, although through ALICIA HAMMERSLEY A Woman Who Wouldn't Remarry By IDAH McC.LONE GIBSON The Noted Writer A Four O'Clook Tea I was glad to see that Bab iguor cd Miss Belcher's question vlsloned leaders. The rank-and-file may be blind In that they can not see all the facts requiring consideration In sequence and Im portance in order to complete the picture, or problem. But the rank and rile always can try to select leaders of known probity and honor. In trade, too, the wage earners, blind to economic facts, who are led by leaders equally blind, quickly lind their chariot In the ditch aa many hnve recently. And the trade or calling whose minor leaders blindly follow the blind policy of blind leaders, know lust how the wage-earners feel In the general w reck. We cannot go forward In this life without leaders, in purely secular and temporal affairs; and to lead, the leaders must qualify through having been led. that they may know the way. The pilot who safely takes the great ship through the fogs to safety, passed a long and hard apprenticeship In his pro fession before being allowed to leud. When troubles come to man or nation, there Is a rush for "the best brain" and the scramble is so needless If the "best brains" were procured first. All through our secular life, there Is only one way by which any group may work successfully for their own good through the common good and that is by choosing leaders on merit alone, and obey orders. And In the greater life, the spiritual, the same rule holds. Choose the Great Leader, and obey His orders Implicitly. Then the ditch will be avoided and in no other way. a desert island where the Inhabi tant had lost the power of speech because they were all able to read each other's thoughts. "As I sat In that room, preten ding to drink my tea (which I detest and which I consider a sil ly Idea on the part of Mr. Early) I could not help thinking what a terrific running-to-cover would ensue if iuddeuly, by some necro- ... lA l,oan mancy, every one oi uo able to read every one else's mind as an open book. "With the exception of your friend, Mrs. Gordon, I am afraid I that every one of us would be ashamed of what we were think ing. Miss Belcber was malice personified. You were trying to j fathom at just what place Early j was taking his stand. I wa hMltfner him to the best of my ability and hoping I would get under his skin. As for him, only an all-seeing Providence could know of what he was thinking. But I do know his thoughts were. not pleasant. "Allx, I like your judge," Bab continued abruptly. "He is not my judge more is the pity for I like him, too, very much." "Well, what Is the matter? Is he married? He certainly is very fond of you, dear, for whenever he thought no one was observing he simply devoured you with his j eyes. And when he made mat I remark about wondering if there I were many other women as good as Alice in the world his face lighted with absolute certainty as J he looked at you.'' "He may be very fond of me, nau, out tie nas aireaay given me warning that he intends staying away from me because he Is not a marrying man. I rather re sented that, for It gave me Impres sion that he felt that he only had 10 asK me to many mm for me to accept." well, why beat about the bush?" asked Bab bluntly. "It's true, Isn't. It?" "What do you mean, Bab?' i mean that for some reason that you are more interested really interested In that judge than you have been in any other man you ever met." "Y'ou forget I have been mar ried." "I forget nothing. You do not have to answer me, for I know that I am right. Why didn't you invite him to the dinner tonight?" "For the reason I have just given you. You wouldn't Invite a man to your house, would you, if he had told you that he had mwnnea to stay away from you for fear that you would Inveigle him into the matrimonial net?" "That is what I did to Uuane Benton." I laughed merrily. Bab was so complacent over the success of her marriage. "Did you ever tell him this, Bab?" "Don't be silly, Alix."
