ORE.. AUG. 1 ......1913 With reports of 150 attendance and empty treasuries, it would appear that the Western Tri-State league is tot tering on the ragged edge of adver sity. Bat the Tri-State has company in its deolioe; the Northwestern league U hobbling over the rooks also. , The Chioago Tribune claims to be the greatest newspaper, fcrtt the later Ocean is Chicago's test newspaper. It is pretty safe to piediot that the prohibition party will not make Teddy its candidate for president. WILLING TO GIVE CREDIT. Secretary of the Treasury MoAdoo 60ES in the decline of two per cent government bonds mnob manipulation on the part of a number of influential New York banks acting in concert to cause apprehension and uneasiness aboat tbese bonds in order to blp these taoks in tbeir efforts io defeat the onirenoy bill. Almost the entire issue of these bonds are owned throughout the country by the banks, aad tbey are nsed as security for na tional bank notes. MoAdoo says "If tbe pnoe is 'marked down, it is because tbe banks themselves are put ting pressure on tbe market and de pressing the value of tbeir securities. Tbe fault is tbeir own. It would seem the part of good sense and good bus iness not to do it." In bis statement Seoretary MoAdoo deolared tbe 2 per cents were worth par notwithstanding their deoline in tbe New York market, and oontinned: "The idea seems to be that tbe country banks wbiob bold abont two thirds of the 2 per cent bonds and use tbem as tbo taais for tbeir circulating notes may be indnced to be nnited with the New York City banks in opposition to . tbe bill if they can be mudp to believe tbnt tbe pro posed currency measure is going to in jure tbese bonds and onuse losses to tbe banks. This is. if coarse, un founded. Meantime, it is folly for any bonk to Bell government 2 per oent at a saoritloe because of any proposed legislation adverse to government, as no such legislation will result. In the 121 years of its existence the gov ernment bss kept faith sornpulouHly with its creditors and it is not going to change Its honorable character now. It the nccusBities of any bonk oblige it to sell bonds at depressed prices, that, of coarse, U another matter a matter solely for trio bank to determine. There is not going to be any llnauoiul 'rouble and the large orops now in prospeot are going to be moved with out difficulty; and the powers of tbe department would bo exercised in tbe greatest amplitude fur the protection of tbe business interests of tbe coun try," Seualor Weeks of Massachusetts, a repoblioon member of tbe'seuate t'oramitteo and banking and ourreuoy .' i a slatemont attaoked Seoretary Mo- loo for his charge that the books deprensed tbe price of two por emit bonds and demanded that bo make tiubllo the information on which he Used the charge. Tariff reductions do not seem to i li'tot tbe lluaiioial centers much. All are optimistic and believe that the business oouditious of tbo country are suoh that a panic is oat of tho ques tion. It is true that business will, to u degree, have to adjust ittelf to tbe new form of things aud it is believed that the transition will te made with out any material disaomtlture. In 1907 sudor the Diugloy high tariff Lill panio waa experienced doe, it whs Enid, to world wide expansion of ored ' it, lota of it based on imagination. During reont years, this country bss been blessod with tig eiope, expansion of sound business, no great speoulatiou hii with it all a balance pf trade in t : i asing year by . yoar. Tbese coudi 1 1 ids do not warrant a pauio and bard ti nos is being aaouted by tiiowiu close l)uob with tbe flnauciul conditions, 'i he people have deuaaudod a reduc tion of tbo tariff uud they expect it. Their mind is aud was maile op aud I'm psychology of the situation is nil t'...tcould te dosired. It is curtain 'iat certain tarlif redactions will be made aad it is doubtful if the effect will even be fcotioable m so far as geu eral prosperity is couoerued. The I'ress is in reoeipt of tbe au tiounoeuieut that A. L. Westgurd, vice president of tbe Natiioual High way! Association, will pass through Atbena'on his J7.000 wile motor car trip in a few days. Athena has the distinction of beiog on tbe proposed national highway projected from Anapolis to ; Portland and Seattle. Westgard is coming in tho iuterests of national highway coostinction, and will find some pretty good road con traction between tbU city and Wes ton, built without federal aid.

Jefferson was the most delightful story teller I have ever met writes Mary Shaw in the Century, describing "The Human Side of Joseph Jeffer son." Ills varied life and experiences were wonderfully Interesting Once we were In Terre Haute, Ind., and the theater wns near n hotel. We got out of the cnb mid were strolling through the hotel corridor when a very pom pous mnu came up to Mr. Jefferson, as persons frequently did. and, extending u!m hand, hmIiI: "Mr. Jcffi'i'xon, you do not know me, out I know you very well, nml, sir, 1 nni rery glad to see you n our city. Von are a great nt-tor I have seen you ever slme I wns a little boy''-be looked fully ms old ns Mr. Jefferson "iind I have always looked forward to your visit to this place." lie went on praising Mr. Jefferson, who presently said: "I thank you very much. Vou are very kind." Tpon whli-li the old gentleman went on: "I tell you everywhere In this town people are glad to see old Josh Wblt comb." There wns u moment of silence, and then Mr. Jefferson said: "1 think you are mistaken. I play Itlp Van Winkle. You must mean Mr. Thompson lie plnys Josh Whit comb." The effusive gentleman paused long enough to collect bis wits and then said cheerfully: "Oh, yes! So you are the old fellow who played Itlp Van Wlnkle7 Well, you're good too." The Famous Portland Vase. The material of the famous Portland vase Is rIiihs. with cameo engraving. The vase Is composed of two layers cf glass, white over dark blue. Tbe white was ground uwny by baud so ns to leave the design in white upon the blue background. It is one of the tragedies of the British museum that this priceless treasure was smashed to piece by an Insane visitor. It has, however, been repaired with great skill and Is now guarded with extra caro. This beautiful specimen of Greek art is ten Inches in height, with a diame ter ut Its broadest part of seven Inches. Its present name comes from the fact that It was once owned by tho Duko of Portland, who loaned if to the Itrltlsh' museum in 1810. SUMMONS.
