The Maupin Times jmiiiniimttitiimntiirtiiuiiHtiinMniiiiMiiiiimniuininiiiiiiniirniiiiiMaiUiuiuinintuiiiiiittHUiuaiM liuiunuiHtHKH 1 AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER FAMILIARITY WEEDS CONTEMP It has often been said that the more familiar one becomes with cer tain conditions the k-ss is thought of them. The recent death by electricu tion of Linesman Wattles is a sub itanUticn of the saw that "famili arity breeds contempt." Wattles hod been a linesman for 20 years. During that time he had worked amidst "hot" wires with but a few minor accidents. He had as sisted in stringing some of the mot heavily charged line-s in this section, and had escaped destruction, although he had at times suffered severe burn:. In fact the victim of Sun day's accident in Maupin had be come so familiar with charged wires that he gave no thought to potential death carried by them. lie grew careless, made the fatal slip and to day fills a grave. Becoming to0 familiar with any line often proves disasterous. It may be that one may become so ac customed to 'doing certain things in a certain way that such action be comes mechanical. A deviation from the set manner proves des tructive. A business may be carried along for years in one particular manner. A change disrupts things ad con.equently the business slumps with a crash. And so on through the gamut of things human. "Saftey first" is a good precept and should be studiously followed by all, whether working on "hot" wires i Claymier, or conducting a p?anut stand. !

Five of Maupin's dealers in ga o line went to The Dallos yesterday for the purpose of trying to arrange an equitable basis for the price of gas. Those going down were R. W. Richmond, John Williams. Bernard Welch, Ben Fraley and Joe Kramer. Adjacent towns are in a position to sell ga;, below the price charged at Maupin, the reason therefore be ing that the oil companies deliver their products to those places at a lower rate than at Maupin, thus en abling their products to sell cheaper then Mjiupin dealers. Gas at the present time sells for 19 centi and 19 li cents a gallon in The Dalle?; at Dufur the price is 22 cents per gallon, at Maupin 25 cents. The confab between the Maupin dealers and the officisls at The Dalles was not prolific of much good, as the oil companies claimed that freight ra'es were the cause of the discrimination, a fact over which they had no control.
