WILSON'S ANSWER.
When a delegation of women called
at the White (louse for the purpose
of urging upon President Wilson the
necessity of a special message to con
gress dealing with the (juestiou of wo
man suffrage, he very properly refer
red them to the Democratic National
Committee.
President Wilson abrogates to him
sclt no unusual powers and holds that
the party is greater than the man who
receives favors at the hands of the of
ganiatiou. lie lakes the position that
the president is merely the instrument
through which the pledges contained
in the parly platform arc carried out
and contends that the first duty of a
public officii:! is to see to it that
each i'.ml every pledge is faithfully
and honestly kept.
In this particular instance he fell
that Wilson, the President, had no
moral or legal right to commit the
Democratic party to a new policy un
til it had first received the approval
of the National Comimittee or of the
majority of the delegates at the Na
tional convention. His first duty is
to carry out the pledges contained hi
the platform adopted at Baltimore
and he is the kind of a man .who will
perform that duty to the best of his
ability.
BENNETT'S STRENGTH
No public service corporation
which expects special favors at the
hands of the next (iovernor of Ore
gon will support the candidacy of
Judge A. S. Bennett of The Dalles.
He has accepted too many personal
injury suits against the great railroads
and other corporate interests of the
state to make him a popular candidate
with the so-called "big interests."
It is not, however, from the classes
but from the masses that Judge lieu
net t will poll his biggest vote. It i-.
his natural honesty, his admitted
ability and his popularity among the
rank ami file of the party thai make
him the strongest candidate tor the
Democratic nomination lor (iovernor.
During the past few mouths the
cuireucy tueslion appears to have
cost the hanker-, a i;ood many s!t-e;i-les.v
night s. The currency problem
has always been a mu:iyc of worry
to the incnibeis ol the new-paper pro
fession. Wilson's !ei.ni policy : Ty in.;

THE LOAN SHARK
In the February American Magazine
appears an article entitled "A Poor
Maii's Hank." showing how in Atlan
ta a great fight is being made against
loan shaiks by lending money on the
security of labor at reasonable rates.
W. Woods WJiite, president of the
bank, has been lighting loan sharks
for years. In I'fcU lie headed a grand
jury which investigated the subject
He found seventy four loan sharks in
Atlanta, curving thirty-live thousand
loans a mouth, at annual interest
rates of 250 per cent, rp to 3,51V per
cent, with U.UV borrower:, the loans
running all the way from one dollar
to one hundred dollars. Following is
one man's story of how he fell mt"
the hards of the loan sharks:
"'I would see my wife st.uve. and
starve myself before Id go thtough it
again lie Mid. 'My wile had a babv
ouly two days old, when my house
burned up. Of course the shock to
my wife was terribte.' and she be-.-unc
dangcrousty sick. I simply had
to have money to pay the drug anrt
doctor's bills, and so I borrowed from
'he only source I could, the loan
sartc. 1 borrowed $4TJ, and paid $4
a month interest. Out of my salary
of $65 a month r.s railroad yard-hand.
w:th a sick wife and a baby and my
'ousc burned, you can sec I couldn't
pay any of the principal. .My debts.
mi deed, increased till, at the end of
.two years, I was in $240 to the sharks,
and paying $24 a month interest, or
considerably over one third of my
earnings, for I was so broken up by
worry myself by now I lost time
through my own sicknessess. Finally
I could pay 110 more, and the sharks
were about to put me in jail when Mr.
White and bis bank saved me.' "
According to the latest advices from
Paris the new gowns will lie more
decollete than they have been for the
past quarter of a century. They are
cut with great depth both in the front
And back. If they keep on they will
have to change the ball season from
the winter months to July and August.
Linn county candidates appear to
be exceedingly backward. The Dem
ocrat would like to have a good look
at the political horses before the day
of the race.
Nearly all of the unemployed poli
ticians have "tossed their hats into
'die ring," and most of them want to
be governor of Oregon.
Will en you pass some men on the
street you feel that you have just had
an encounter with a cold north wind.
Can't our Republican friends figure
out some painless method of eliminat
ing Congressman Mawley?
BETTER JUDGES
The Oregon Journal makes a plea
for an acid test of the availability of
candidates for the supreme court of
the state.
The Journal is right. There is no
more important office in the gift 01
the people, and none which carry the
same responsibilities.
I n choosing a candidate for a ju
dicial office, politics should be cast
aside and integrity and ability become
the yard stick by which the various
candidates arc measured.
The election of a knave or a fool
to any public office is unfortunate,
but to elect a, man who is morally
or mentally unfit to a place on the
supreme court, is a calamity.
The Union Pacific railroad com
pany 'has authorized the expenditure
of between five and six million dol
lars for improvements for the O. W.
R. & N. Now that the great rail
roads have demonstrated that they
are willing to gamble over five million
dollars on the future prosperity of
the country, the little fellows may
proceed to spend some of their loose
change.
If everyone could look as pleasant
around home as they do when posing
for the photographer this would he a
mighty happy world.
Most men can stand failure hut it
takes a truly great man to Maud suc-
Clige a fool woman a few good togs
and a tool man a few loose dollars in
t hange and they swell up like a pois
oned pup.

U. G. SMITH WRITES ON
PROSPECTS FOR CANNERY
Says One Strong Cannery Is
Better Than Two Weak
Plants.
Editor Democrat: I read with
..iiicu interest your rcccnc editorial
with reference to establishing a can
nery at. Albany and, as to the benefit
uch a movement would be to the city
and surrounding country, i heartily
agree with you. Having had some ex
perience,, with others, during the last
two or three years in an effort to es
tablish a cooperative fruit associa
tion and cannery at Albany, I believe
it would be unwise, at present, u 1
dertakc such an enterprise. There is
insufficient acreage to support a can
nery at Corvallis with excellent facil
ities and low cost for shipping them
make it possible for our growers to
realize better returns for their pro
ducts than could possibly be realized
by establishing a cannery here which
would .only divide the patronage with
practically double the cost 6f opera
tion without-prospects of an adequate
increase in return. In short, it would
mean two weak canneries instead of
one.
The Benton County Growers' As
sociation and cannery have been in op
eration less than two years, and the
phenomenal success achieved in build
ing up a system for operating, a repu
tation and financial standing, and a
market for the products, all reflect
great credit on the integrity and busi
ness ability of the officials directing
the affairs of the association and can
nery. The volume of last year's business
is convincing in itself. With a capital
of $640 the association shipped, 81
cars besides a number of shipments in
less than carload lots. In the cannery
department a total of 1,363,300 pounds
of finished goods, making 17,840 cases,
besides shipping 3 car loads of fresh
apples nnd 3 carloads of potatoes were
handled.
The value of cooperative marketing
was conclusively demonstrated by
prices received. The average price of
apples through commission concerns
in 1912 was 32.4 cents per box and the
net price was worse than nothing. The
sum of 10 cents per box had to be paid
for the privilege of giving the frujt
away. The growers, in 1913, realized
through the association $l;-20 per box,
gross, with a net price of 93 cents per
box for their apples.
The products of the cannery were
sold rapidly in the leading markets
on the Pacific Coast from Seattle to
Los Angeles and as far East as New
York City. The total order for the
year of goods yet to be shipped
which will yield the grower a consid
erable sum in addition to what they
have already received.
lty cooperating with the association
and cannery at Corvallis our grow
ers will share immediately all the ben
efits to be derived from their experi
ence and success while, if we attempt
to establish a cannery here it would
have to begin at the bottom to build
up an institution facing ail uncertain
ties for success.

$61GQ DAMAGES ASKEO BY
GREEK FOR LOSS GF EYE
Alleges That Will Employee
Negligently Threw a Mick
at Him.
For the loss of an eye, as the re
sult ol an employee of the Ham
mond Lumber company throwing a
stick of wood at him, Panagis N.
Palumuis, a Greek mill hand, has filed
suit in the circuit court against the
Hammond Lumber company for dam
ages in the sum of $6100, $100 of
which is to cover the alleged doctor's
bills.
The siory of how he was working
as a dogger in the lumber mill, having
been put on the job temporarily in
the absence of the regular dogger,
how he was unfamiliar with the work,
leading to the throwing of the stick
of wood by the sawyer, under whose
orders he was working in order to
attract his attention, and how he
turned his head in time to receive the
blow from the stick full in the face,
is told in Palumbaint's complaint.
Stick Piercod Eyeball
The plaintiff was on December 12,
1912 according to the complaint, work
ing as a sweeper in the mill, when in
pursuance to instructions from the
foreman, took the place of the dogger
during his temporary absence. It is
alleged that while he was discharging
s duties as such the sawyer un
dertook to signal to him to release
the dogs from a log that it may be
turned before making another cut.
The plaintiff at the time was standing
in his position on the carriage with
his face turned away from the saws
to protect his eyes from the sawdust,
for which it is alleged the defendant
company failed to provide proper ap
pliances for carrying away. It is
claimed that the sawyer, to attract the
attention of the plaintiff, threw a
stick of wood at him and that at the
same time the plaintiff turned around.
The stick, bearing a sharp point, it is
claimed, struck the plaintiff in the
right eye, lacerating the eyeball and
permanently injuring his sight.
It is also set up that the plaintiff
was wholly inexperienced and not in
formed of the dangers and hazards
of the position occupied by the dog
ger and that his employers failed to
instruct him as to his duties. Attor
neys Hewitt & Sox represent the
plaintiff.
