The election recount suits filed In Portland by W. W. Banks against W. J. H. Clarke for state senator, and John Coffey against It. J. Kirkwood, Herbert Oordon, E. It. Campbell and Louis Koehn for state representatives, both on the Republican ticket, re ceived a backset when Circuit Judge Phelps ruled that more definite allega tions of mistakes on the part of elec tion boards must be given. Hundreds of letters have been re ceived at the offices of the public service commission with relation to the recent order unscrambling the in terests of the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific railroads. Most of the letters received from points in west- em Oregon urge the public service commission to protect against the segregation of the railroad's interests, while a majority of the letters recelv- j ed from eastern and central Oregon' approve tha dissolution.

The resolution as submitted by Mr. Kerrigan appar ently was intended as a short cut to he reduction of telephone rajes in Oregon, Hnd If approved, probably will have the efteet of throwing the entire telephone rat controversy in tha courts for final determination.

I ciuiouuii whh a uw.rfi.ary 111 wie president h cabinet, point to some re cent happenings in Kansas as further evidence of the need of standardiza tion, not only in educational ideas, but in public school policy. Kansas possesses a state superin tendent of public instruction in the pe rson of Mis Lorraine Wooster. Miss Wooster recently had two drastic rulings she made overruled. The f',et case concerned a teacher in a s.nnil Kansas town who was "guilty ' ' permitting a dance to He held in the schoolhous3 after school hours. This conduct appealed to Miss Woos ter as so reprehensible that she re fused a renewal of the cf fending teacher's certificate. Her course was not upheld by her superiors, the teacher continues to teach, arid dances continue to be held in the school-' house! or students use tobacco in any form will not be accepted for certification." The attorney general for Kansas, Hon. Richard J. Hopkins, renders an opinion stating that the state super intendent has no authority to enforce such rules. The bringing of privae ideas of re form into school matters has always been one of the curses of the undi rected public school activities of this ment of hay for King George's Hes sians during the revolution, has spread over a wider area than any other wild flower, but the qualities that have made for its survival have been those which now condemn it to the disesteem of those who have spent the best part of their lives fighting weeds.

For the field daisy, the chrysanthe- But this, although it exists in some variety in every state in the union and prospers even in Porto Rico and Alaska, was long ago appro priated by England. The carnation, a likely alternative, has the disadvan tage of being difficult to grow in many localities and of being sensi tive to many pests. It has been suggested that our national emblem need not necessarily be a flower. If universality of habi tat be a criterion, and if a shrub shall be acceptable, the issue might be re- jferred to Mr. Edison for settlement, j One of the test questions recently ! asked by the wizard of applicants for mum leucanthemium of the botanists, tobacco, and recently promulgated a menace to the crops.

No remedy has yet been found for walnut blight. The disease attacks the young filbert trees, affecting the new shoots and suckers. The suckers should be removed as soon as the blight appears. This appears to be a year unfavorable to the development of apple scab. 0.

Possibly he" was- , . " .... J . ;- " But that is changed now. A new order has arrived. People read advertisements. ' Many; find their greatest , interest in looking over the advertising pages to get news ' that will save them money, and, take it from John D. Rockefeller, the way to save your dollars is first to save your pennies. t , , Advertisements today are right up to the minute.' They are as fresh as the news of the world or the latest ' baseball score. Live merchants cater to live people and they must not alone be up to the minute, but they must be some distance ahead. They must anticipate the wants of their customers. . : , : And they do. Turn to the advertisements in this paper right now. Just read what the merchants are offering. Notice the invitations for you to do business with them. d Notice how attractively the advertisements are set up and how inviting they are.( Business men that is ; the successful ones know ad vertising pays big returns. Unsuccessful men don't adver tise because they are unsuccessful. That's the answer. Look over your town right now and pick out the big firms. They're the advertisers. Advertising is-the tonic that puts dividends in the banks. Everybody reads advertisements today. Mr. Merchant, is your advertisement in this newspaper? I i 1 f I 9 8 A. C. Jlixperimeni oianuu. MM K)
