Seats, knees and arm-pits are points necessitating particular attention. They are , made of only reliable materials, perfectly put together and in style, right up to the min ute. The label telle eewed in every coat. It is plainly the duty of every mother before buying to carefully analyze the above. Come in and convince yourselves of its genuineness. feold at Jarroait's Fair Store men do that. Bnt the apparent evi dences of tbe great liberality ou his part are rather tokens ot an awakened consienoe. It seems to have dawnbed upon bim that the time has arrived when be should think of giving back to the people a portion at least of the millions which he has taken from their. For this be is, of course, de serving of a fair measure of commen dation, but he must not be disappoiu 'ed if the people fail to see in bis act of restoration any great amount of un selfish generosity. Nor should there be on tbe part of the people any hesitation in aooeptiug all that is given. Whatever the means adopted by any man or set of men to collect tribute fiom tbe publio, it forms no good reason why a restoration of what has been taken should be flouted. Let the return of the goods be accepted iu a spirit of thankfulness that a sense of jutsice is at last pre vailing over the disposition of greed. HOW TO GET RICH.

ATH EN A, ORE.. APRIL 5. . . ..... 1907 Every citizen of Oregon should get bnsy and advise his friends and ac quaintances in other states that there are ocly four weeks left in which to get the advantage of the colonist rates to Oregon points. These tickets will be sold np to and including April 30th ; there is lots of time to get in good work. To know Oregon better and particularly the community in which yon live has become epidemic all over tbe State. No branch of the Oregon Development League is doing more effective work than the fruit growers' organization of Irrigon. They recently sent out five thousand pieces of matter io one delivery of the mail. Someone asked ns why we don't write an article denouncing the mail order houses. In the first place the subject is threadbare and besides the people of tbia community have found by experience that the Athena mer chants can do as well or better by them than Shears & Sawbuck or any other mail order firm. What's the use of saying more? Thoso who have formed the opinion that Oregon real estate has reached the top notob are apt to be fooled, for tbe way farms are selling, shows that Oregon land has not yet reaohed its limit. An operatic production iu New York City has been discontinued because the patrons declared it indecent. This is equivalent to an announcement that the "smart set" of New York society is spending the season abroad. A Jeaden missile, sen crashing into a human . body is a deporable and re grettable act, even when performed by an offioer in the discharge of his duty. On the other hand the dignity of the law. on whioh publio safety relies and peace of the community depends must ' be upheld, even at the sacrifice of human life. For this reason, the law ' gives the peace officer the right to ex ercise his judgment in the use of fire arms when neoeasary, in bringing law breakers under arrest. The earthquake at San Franoisco instead of killing off the grafters only stirred them np to do dirtier work. If tbe hand of Providence dealt tbe blow because of the wiokedness of the city she had better try again. The sensational reporters are having a hard time to make the people believe that Roosevelt is trying to name his snooesaor in offloe. Uneasy rested the head that wore no Easter bonnet. Bv Jam os J. Montacno. - By the terms of Senator Aldrioh's RTirrnnnv bill, the secretary of the treasury can give the New York banks the free use of $400,000,000 a year of publio money gathered at the custom hnnsp. When'old King Midas needed cash he moral v had to touch The servants, cook stoves, folding beds, alanrrnliera and fiUCh. And they forthwith would turn to cold, whereon the king proceeded, When bills or Chrismas time came 'round to break off what ne But when the thirst for lucre burns in Jnhn n 'a vearning breast He merely winks at Aldrioh and the senate does the rest. When Captain Kidd ran short of funds he sailed the Spanish Main, And gathered in the caravels huh down witn goia ror opaiu. He little knew, how easily tho modern bnooaneer Would levy tribute on his prey and never wag an ear. For when the greed for dollars Ryan's tender nerves unsets, He merely noods at Aldrioh, and the sums he wants be gets. In early days when people fought with clubs and brutal axes, Tbe king went round from house to house and gatherea utnes buu fnTna. The job was nioit unpleasant for the simple peasant men Got peevish at their sovereign and would thrasn mm now auu meu. Our latter-day finanoial kings are (mured that toil and trouble, For Aldrioh, when applied to, has the senate pay them double. So if you'd like to make a strike and hnv n Nnw York bank. Don't try to make your viotims quake by giving them tho plank. You cannot touch the chairs and such mil fnrn thnm into Cash. The publio writhes nowadays at tithes, nnrt lnvine them is rash. But wink at Aldrioh, knowingly, and hn'll nt once rjroceed. (Perhaps) to have the senate give all the ooin you need.

McBride PENDLETON Publio interest is now turned from the Thaw trial and the San Franoisco boodle cases and is centered on Roose velt vs. Harriman. It looks like Wall Street against the President, and when the veil is lifted, doubtless it will be known where campaign funds came from. Incidentally, too, it may be Giviner the People Their Own. Thn "norsonal friend" of John D. Rookefeller who is authority for the statement that the oil king is contem plating a gift of $50,000,000 to JNeW York city for charitable and education al purposes, says that "there is scaroely a man, woman or ohild that will not benefit in some way by these prospec tive donations." He might, says an exohange, have gone on to say that there is scaroely a man, woman or child who has not contributed in some way to the immense wealth of Mr. Rocke feller. Mr. Rockefeller is entitled to credit for returning to the people that which he has taken from them.
