GOOD EVENING
SIPS FOR SUPPER
By Don tTpjobD
We read In yesterday's, slogan
page of the Statesman where Mr.
Ike Patterson, our governor, 1b a
corn raiser
Now a all our readers know,
we believe in slogan pnijes and in
boosting the country
But the very idea
Of telling everybody that Ike Is
raising corns-
It's all right to tell the truth
about a public otfleia.1, but to pry
into his private me, ana inside his
very shoes, as It were
And bare to the world such ten
der facts as these is an outrage of
the worst type
And think how it will interfere
with our governor's efficiency by
having every chiropodist in tlie
state bearing down on him want
ing to get at him when he should
be paring appropriation bills rath
er thaa corns-
But at that, we see both Big
Ike and Utile Ike twinkled in the
senate a few minutes yesterday.
Henry Frlesen of Portland was
fined by Justice Small yesterday
for speeding
When we say Henry Friesen we
went out to see Dan Fry to equal
ize matters a little-
Henry wasn't the only one who
was freezin' yesterday
Friesen c Fry would make a
good firm to have in this town.
Think of an ad reading "Friesen
try, electric refrigerators and
electric heaters."
With all the coid weather, we
are advised Dan Burns, just the
same.
But even the cold weather
doesn't prevent Ike from keeping
on raising his corns. We hope the
legislature don t step on Ikes toot
m& f) II he frets the corns all
shocked, at least, or the corns will
get shocked.
Come to the Willamette valley.

It's great to live where winter

Seeking To Purchase
Salem Water Plant
The Salem Water, Light & Power
company may be purchased by a
large natlon-wld corporation that
makes a business of buying and
operating private plants in cities In
every part of the country.
This possibility Is seen following
information that has come to light

the local company with a view to
making the purchase. Paul B.
Wallace, head of the Salem firm,

on the proposition, but admitted
that Inquiries have been made ask.

along with systems of chain stores
and similar projects. One such
