PAPER TRUST There is to be a print paper famine and the highest prices known in years, so the press dispatches tell us. It means that publishers are to face a condition that will force many of the weaker into bankruptcy because prices are now so high that their profits have, in many instances, been cut to nothing, due to the fact that subscription rates were fixed when print paper was much lower and now it seems impossiblo to raise them with out serious loss of patronage. This condition in the paper market is unquestionably trace -;' able to the operation of the combine or trust known as the International Paper Company, controlling the larger part of the ' output of American mills, With a high tariff shutting out Cana ., dian pulp and paper the trust has absolutely controlled the mar.-'.!.- ket and during late years has only run part of the mills in order to keep the supply and demand close together, carrying little or -- no surplus stock in the warehouses. Now a famine in the com modity is imminent because of the unusual drought prevailing in the East for months has caused almost a complete shut-down of the mills, and there is no immediate prospect of a change in con- ditions, The trust representatives are now in Washington attempting to influence the ways and means committee to leave the tariff rates undisturbed, while Mr. Norris, representing the Amercian Publishers' Association, is arguing for free trade, givnig many figures to show the protection afforded paper manufacturers is responsible for the unreasonable prices with which the pub lishers are contending. The protective tariff is the mother of trusts and it is robbing not alone the publishers of newspapers but every consumer in : America. Its reduction to a plane justified by present-day con ditions would do more to smash the trusts than all the suits that - can be brought against the robber combines in a hundred years. f . ; . 1 The Harney County News, ex-Speaker Frank Davey's paper ' and strongly Republican, contributes the following to the State ment No.. 1 controversy: ""The strongest reason urged to justify the violation of the pledges of Statement No. 1 legislators is the decision of the supreme court of North Dakota that such a .pledge is unconstitutional and cannot be legally exacted, and 'can therelore be ignored without betraying any trust." There :may be strictly legal truth in this, but we believe the moral rea soning is false. The Oregon candidate for the legislature took his pledge freely and voluntarily. He took his chances as to the effect such pledge would have upon his candidacy before the pri maries and again at the polls. Is it not too late now for him to seek excuses to go back on it?" A conference of the offioers of the State Dairy Association at Salem has determined the details of that convention Decem ber 10th and 11th. The sessions will be held in Ye Liberty thea tre, while a commodious hall has been secured for the exhibits. The Board of Trade of that city will receive exhibits and care ior them so that they will be in excellent condition for display. Messrs. Wm. H. Ladd, Dr. E. N .Hutchinson, and Dr. James "Withycoml e are among thoso on the program. Says the Coos Bay Harbor (Rep.): "If the people could have the opportunity to elect our United States senators by a direct vote that trouble between Chamberlain-Fulton forces would have been eliminated. As it is the people have spoken in favor of Governor Chamberlain and it seems to us that it would be a case of misplaced confidence if their wishes in this selec tion were not carried out. The oase of General Gomez proves that trouble-makers do sometimes win out. Two years ago he was in jail, charged with conspiracy against the Palma government ;now he is president-elect. It is barely possible that the Cuban voters thought it would be cheaper to elect him than to have him leading a revolt. The "Oregon Spirit" won that football game Saturday, the fighting Bpirit thtat is backed by the best brawn and brain in the Northwest. Occasionally these the institution that oan defeat beeff founded in the Northwest Pfcy the average clergyman. The New York Press says: "The average clergyman is ostracised at 50, Oslerized at 60, canonized at 70." If there is any moral in this it is "get above the average."

Secretary Wright gave the Ways end Means committee, now hearing arguments on the tariff, a jolt along with some good ad vice when he said to them: "You ought to consider motives in weighing the arguments of those who appear here." Here's another tariff nut for congress to crack. The Na tional grange demands not asks that all raw material used in the manufacture of trust goods be placed on the free list. That would make a sizable door, all right. It has been said that the Ohio politicians are happiest when there is a storm on. If that be true, they must be a very happy bunch just now and with prospects of becoming more so. No more effective socialistic literature is printed than the newspaper descriptions in detail of the winter fashions in clothes and jewelry for milady's pet dog. "THIS DATE IN HISTORY."

She says: "Gratitude for the wonderful effect of Electric Bitters in a case of acute indigestion, prompts this tes timonial.

Hindu religion Is the gen- , eral topic to be covered by the lec- first one was delivered recently 'on "The Place of Woman In Hindu Re ligion." This lecture was given last year by Deva before the Phllologian Society of which he was a member. The customs affecting women differ so widely In India and America, that Deva, who is essentially of an Orien tal type of mind, is often greatly shocked by things seen here. Many an Oregon co-ed has assumed an of fended air upon finding that Deva was addressing her in the amused, tolerant and superior manner of a race, whose women are not consider ed fit to converse on equal . terms with men. Deva lived at the Dormitory and was greatly amused by the dances held there from time to time. When asked to join he would say, "Men don't dance. Only women dance." Every event of note, was jotted down by him to transcribe for a Hin- du magazine, whose correspondent he Is In this country. An event espec ially rich In "copy" for him was the Y. M.- C. A.-Y. W. C. A. joint social given last year at the Kloshe Tilla-cum- house. Here Deva first conde scended to talk to a girl, and al though loathe to confess It, admitted that the sensation was not altogeth er unpleasant. He Is undoubtedly a man of ability, and as an -ardent opposer of English rule in India, may yet be heard from In Revolutionary circles. At present he Is entertaining the students at Washington, and taking down all their peculiar customs to tell to bis dark-skinned brethren over-sea, Just as in years past he his "written up" Oregon and Chicago. Just how an account of the recent halloween festivities in Seattle will read In Sanscrit is a matter of con jecture. At the home of the bride at Grant's Pass on Monday, Nov. 23, 190S, Chris Marx.

A little age worn maybe, but still In circulation. 1 am proud of myself for being In cir culatlon. I am not a tomomato can dollar not I. This town is only my adopted home, but I like It and hope to re main permanently. When I came out of the mint I was adopted into a town like this In another state. But after a time I was sent off to a big city, many miles away. I turned up Inmail order house. For several years I stayed in that city. Millionaires bought cigars with me. I didn't like that, for I behove In the plain peo ple. Flnnlty a travelling man brought me to this town and left nl here. I was so glad to get back to a sjnaller town ttat I determined to maks des perate efforts to stay. One' dry a citizen of this town was about to send me back to that big city. I caught him looking over a mall order catalogue. Suddenly - I found my voice and said to him he wrs a dentist, by the way: "Now look here, doc, if you only let me stay In this town I'll circu late around and do you. lots of good, you buy a beefsteak with me, and the butcher will buy groceries, and tte grocer will buy dry goods, and the dry goods merchant will pay doctor's bills with me, and the doc tor will spend me with a farmer for oats to feed his buggy horse, and the farmer will buy some fresh beef from the butcher, and the butcher will come around to you and get the1 tooth mended. Jn the long run, you see, I'll be more useful to you here at home than if you'd send me away forever." Doc said it was a mighty stiff ar gument. He hadn't looked at in that light before. So he went and bought the beefsteak, and I Began to cir culate around home again. , Now, just suppose all the other dollars that are sent to Chicago' or some other big city were kept In cir culation right here at home. , You could see this town grow.
