Huerta has resigned an another
Hot Tamale Bullfighting Greaser
will continue the massacre. The
only good we can figure out in
the change is that the people will
become familliar with another
heathen.
A bunch o f Oregon land g ra f­
ters have come to grief.
They
were “ locaters" and bled the un­
suspecting public. Their success
caused them to be bold and use
the malls in a reckless manner.
There are others, yet at large and
the people should be on the alert
and not be taken in.
A letter to the Portland Journal
signed, “ Mother o f Three at­
tempts exonorate parents from
blame that boys from 17 to 21,
and girls from 16 to 19 years old
were loitering and spooning in the
park after hours, laying blame te
the law fixing a girl’s m ajority
at 18, that as soon as they became
of age they could not be controll­
ed. It is a wellknown fact that
early impressions are lasting and
if a child is properly trained ir
early childhood, that they will de­
part not. Too many mothers turr
their children loose to roam the
streets at will, and then w onder
wrhy they are so hard to control.
The mother ^who would depend
upon the law to keep her girl ofl
the streets nights is unworthy oi
the name.
Did He Expect Free Advertising?
A short time ago we received
from the American Press Assoc­
iation a cut o f Dr. Smith, Demo­
cratic candidate for governor. We
waited a time and receiving no
order from the Doctor regarding
the matter we wrote to know
what to do in the premises, stat­
ing that we should be pleased to
publish any amount o f campaign
matter for him at regular rates.
In due course o f mail we received
the following letter from Claud
McColloch, an attorney o f Port­
land, presumably his campaign
manager:
Portland, Oregon, July 36, 1914.
Mr. D. L. Wood,
Editor, The Falls City News,
Falls City, Ore.
Dear Sir:
Dr. Smith has asked me to
make acknowledgment of your re­
cent letter, concerning cut and read­
ing matter recently sent out. I am
of the belief that it would be advis­
able to defer advertising until the
Fall, when we would be pleased to
take this matter up with you again.
Very truly yours,
Claude McColloch.
Now what worries us is, if he
did not desire to advertise until
fall why was he in such a rush to
get the cuts out? We notice that
several newspapers are running
the cut in advance o f the “ fall
trade,” but (?) presume that the
Doctor gave them orders to begin
early.

“ MINE H0S1”
Wednesday morning a represen­
tative of the Newr, while waiting
at the New Falls City Hotel to see
a man, was invited by Mr. Droege,
the proprietor, to take a look at
his back yard. The first thing in
view was the laundry department
where snowy white sheet«, table*
cloths and other ncces-ary para­
phernalia of a well regulated hotel
The cackling of chickens next at­
tracted attention. A large yard
filled with fryers and hens was a
sight calculated to make a Me­
thodist preacher set up and take
notice. The garden down by the
Luckiamute looked best of all;
cabbage, lettuce, potatoes, roast­
ing ears and many other good
things was sufficient to make one
wish to slay for dinner. Besides
being a good hotel man, Mr. Droege
would make a good gardener. Last,
hut not least, was a couple of tat
shoals in a nice clean pen that
were being fattened for slaughter.
