A CHEAT PROBLEM.
People differ as to the most
important problem that Amer
icans of today have to solve. In
th ni n of some it is "this,"
and in the opinion of others it is
"that and the other," but in all
seriousness it is the writer's
opinion that one of the most vital
questions to be answered is,
"Where are the cooks, dish
washers and babytenders of the
next few y to be secured?"
It is a question that effects in
dividuals, families, communities,
i- , and in short the nation.
iiiere is already a marked
aversion to housework- notice
able among the young women
of today. So much so. indeed,
that the girl who can do the or
dinary household work, includ
ing cooking, and do it accept
ably and without the supervision
of an older person, is the except
ion rather than ..he rule- Not
uniy this, but the average girl
tarns up her nose at domestic
duties, and seeks for work in
office, store or shop at a meagre
salary, out of which she usually
ir uit pay board and other ex
penses, leaving her no more, if
as much, as she would earn at
housework.
Every avenue of business
seems swamped with applicants
many only half qualified for the
work sought, thus giving incom
petent service at a much lower
figure many times than thorough
ly competent parties could com
mand were there fewer of these
"ciitap Juhns" to fill the places
No one wishes the women of to
day to retrograde nor takea "bad.
seal" in any line of business for
which they are fitted. The "new
woman" is alright, but she needs
to retain enough oldfashioned
ideas to prevent one from forget
ting her natural place in life,
the home, and classing her pure
ly with the business elements of
the universe. Let the young
women learn first of all that the
home is the real thing in life and
that all else is simply a "'side
issue" leading towards it Let
them be taught housework from
a to z and taught it thoroughly,
meanwhile teaching tham that a
motherly mother in a "homey"
home is the most blessed thing
on earth and that she can wield
an influence that any king might
envy.
Let the girls of today be given
the right idea in childhood re
garding the honorableness of
home work and house work, and
one of the most vital subjects of
the hour will have been satisfact
orily disposed of within the next
decade.
BAD POLICY.
More and more murders, like
wise more and more temporary
insanity. Surely, we are a great
people. The large dailies rarely
miss an issue to chronicle some
murder. The latest one in Ore
gon is the case of Blohs killing
one Lemmon, near Roseburg
The deed was committed June
10, 1906. Blohs, of course was
insane.
It is a noticeable fact that
when a man has money and kills
another he is insane the more
money he has the "crazier" he
is. Sometimes, as in the case of
Blohs, the murderer is crazy
even though he has no money.
There are many good people who
decry capital punishment And
yet we all believe there is too
much "temporary insanity" in
fashion these days. If the man
who takes the life of another be
not insane then he is sane and
responsible for his acts.
A sane man knows that the
penalty for murder is death.
Knowing this he must expect to
forfeit his life when he takes the
life of another. Then why, if
he possesses a particle of reason,
does he commit murder? Be
cause, we believe, he thinks he
can escape the full penalty he
can be temporarily insane, have
an attack of "brain storm," or
some other mental ailment which
will incapacitate him until the
court discharge him as a free
man, at which time he will re
sume nis ordinary and previous
position in the affairs of his life.
Something should ' be done to
check the increase of temporary
insanity it is getting worse
than appendicitis. Make the
chances of escaping the penalty
fewer and the malady will fade
away.
We are truly a great, a logical
and reasoning people! For in
stance you can't buy enough al
cohol on your own responsibility,
regardless of your good charac
ter and standing in the commun
ity, to clean a lookingglass, but
you can purchase a revolver and
walk out and shoot the top off
some man's head. Us for wis
dom! CANNOT ESCAPE.
Abe Ruef, erstwhile political
boss and dictator of San Fran
cisco is now in the toils of the
law. Every practice known to
sharp counsel haa been resorted
to by Ruef 's attorneys in order
to defeat law and equity. How
ever, he must come to trial. .
This is as it should be. No
man should be above the law,
and Ruef has no more license to
ou rage public decency, appro
priate money not his own than
any other man. Who is he that
he should be allowed to defy law
and order and escape punish
ment? In the eyes of the law
he should be no more than any
other man. No man should be
above the laws of bis country.
No man can be greater politi
cally t han the people of his coun
try make him.
Prosecuting Attorney Heney
is conducting the case against
Ruef and it looks mightily like
he would land the boss that has
been, in San Quentin. The signs
of the times are engaging as
they indicate a higher standard
of morals in nearly all things.
Throughout the land we see more
and more of a "square deal"
idea creeping in. Let not a
wealthy man or a man of influ
ence escape punishment for an
offense that would ,not be en
dorsed in the poorest laborer in
the land. Then you have justice
such as will be respected by all.
Give This a Thought.
The white paper alone on which
many papers are printed costs
more than is paid by the purchas
er for the printed edition. The
cost of white paper has been ad
vancing for years. Printing ink
never cost more than at the pres
nt time, and wages were never
higher, yet the price of the out
put hrts been retained. The
newspapers of the country in their
columns seem to point out every
thing in the news line pertaining
to the formation of trusts in oil,
liugar, paper, coal, steel, and al
most every commodity in general
use, but they entirely overlook
the fact that they could and
should point with great interest
to the tact that newspapers are
supplying the public with the
news of the world under a great
er expense of production than at
any time previous, while the
comparative cost of advertising
has not been greatly increased.
The newspapers have been in
the front rank in the development
of American civilization, and to
day they give more to the pur
chaser for the investment than it
is possible to receive in any other
channel of expenditure. Anv
thoughtful person who will care
fully consider the increased pub
lication cost of newspapers and
the vast amount of information
and pleasure the people derive
from them at ola time prices will
agree with us that the postage on
them as well as on letters should
be reduced-Ex.

Young
THERE is a lot of talk now
adays about clothes for col
lege and University Young
Men. It gives one the idea that
these must be something different
from the usual run of clothes.
They sometimes are.
But the fact that some
makers call their goods by a col
lege name doesn't make them'
different. A label isn't all there
is to good clothes, for there are
many fancy labels on very poor
merchandise. A label is nothing
unless it represents makers of
ability; a college man amounts
to nothing in clothes unless the
materials and workmanship are
such as to make the clothes better
We want it thoroughly understood that we sell
young men's clothes, that these garments have
that extra style, better tailoring, neater appearance
and swing to them than one wants to find in the
college type of apparel. They are made by such
an authority on Young Men's clothes as Eder
heimer, Stern & Co. That's sufficient. We could
call them by a college name, but it wouldn't make
the clothes better. They're ahead of all so-called
college clothes now.
