Contents Dallas, Or., April 27. -The fine house and barn and all other out buildings on the farm of Ira Stubblefield, two miles south of this city, were totally destroyed by fire Saturday even ing, while the family was in Dallas. The fire started in the barn, and the buildings with all their contents were consumed, including nearly 100 chickens. The cattle and horses were all in the pasture, and thus escaped. The value of the property de stroyed is not less than $7000. The insurance was small. The Wrong Bank Credited The Observer unintentionally credited the wrong bank in the part taken in regard to the cap ture of the check swindler article in Tuesday's Observer. It should have read Mr. Craven of the Dallas City Bank instead of Eu gene Hayter of the Dallas Nation al. It was through the efforts of Mr. Craven that the Sheriff was notified and also the Salem banks. The Dallas City Bank wired to the eastern bank and discovered that a forgery had been committed. In the rush of work as Editor, reporter and general work, the writer had his hands full and heard the story and put it together the best he could on short notice. Observer. D. L.

Andy Matson, a Portland long shoreman, is contesting the labor vote with Oi P. Hoff for Factory Inspector. Elmer Dover of the Oregon Power Co. says with cheap power the 3 Pacific Coast states will have seven million population by 1920. Fewer game laws, fewer boards and commissions, and less inter ference with industries, and more capital invested in manufactur ing enterprises, is the line of de velopment now advocated by the people of Oregon.

A new Christian church has been dedicated at North Bend. The Springfield cement block factory is working a larger force. The Vancouver bridge across the Columbia is to be on the draw or bascule plan to let the largest sailing vessels through, and is to be built of Oregon fab ricated steel. Labor union and closed shop policies on the Portland water front are driving shipping more and more to Puget Sound on ac- The Smith-Powers logging road is to be completed south to Myrtle Point. The grange in many parts of the state is refusing to support the eight hour laws and other propositions emanating from Labor unions. For the past ten years the two bodies have worked together. Merchants and farmers plead the right of their sons to learn trades from which they are shut out by the apprentice ruling of the minimum wage commission. Building docks and a seawall will enable Astoria to fill many streets. The Golden Star and other mines in the Bohemia group are putting in machinery and doing development work.

Yes, these are hard times. We throw away ashes and buy soap. We raise dogs and buy hogs. We grow weeds and buy vegetables. We catch fish with a $4 rod. We build schoolhouses and then send our children away from home to be educated. And, last, but not leas,t, we send our boys out with a $40 gun and twenty dollar dog to hunt ten cent game. If these are hard times whose fault is it? Exchange. We are prone to let prejudice distort our vision. For instance, if Huerta were known to be the leader of an up-lift movement he would seem more amiable to us in his pictures, and everybody would be saying that he is not such a terrible looking old cuss after all. -Toledo Blade.
