Everybody knows it then net your dealer to show you i Results As It draws near the opening of the Manufacturers' and Land Pro ducts Show, October 26th, 1914, the Exhibits Committee are beginning to realize the great importance and the wonderful scope that this exposition is taking. It was first thought that nearly all of the products and man ufactured wares could be displayed in one or two buildings, but as coun ty after county of Oregon, Southern Oregon and Washington commence to realize the Importance through publicity of this exposition, they have secured space ranging from 100 to 600 square feet, for the purpose of displaying grains, grasses, fruits, and products of the farm and or chard. St. Helens Hall, an Episcopal school for girls, in Portland, was damaged by fire last Thursday morn ing, causing a loss of from $50,000 to $75,000. The fire originated In the attic, and had it been a week lat er, it would have found from 50 to 60 girls In the building. No one was hurt. Fire In Albany last Thursday de stroyed half of a business block and entailed a loss of $27,000. President Wilson has asked the House and Senate, in a joint meet ing, to devise a means by which $100,000,000 may be raised annual ly, this to be levied in the form of a war tax. , Jackson county Is completing a 13 mile scenic road over the Siskiyou mountains, a part of the Pacifi highway. All classes of food stuffs continue to raise in price. Fresh meats made another sensational jump (luring the past week. Bread stuffs are on the rise all over the country. Oregon apple growers are much alarmed over the market prospects. For some years past, a large portion of apples grown In this state have been marketed abroad, but it now seems probable that this market will he lost to the 1914 crop. In that event with a large increase in production throughout the country, apples prom ise to be lower In price than in some years. Astoria Municipal Docks Contract.

A. C AGENCY COMPANY, 758 Gas, Electrical Bid, Denver, Col 440 Phelan Bid., San Franclsea, Cal Does Prohibi tion Fulfill Its Promises? Thinking people of every religious creed and political belief should give earnest heed to the expressions of opinion from eminent di vines, educators, editors, governors, judges, legisla tors, and others prominent in every walk of life, who have publicly voiced their sentiments concerning pro hibition in words similar to these: "Prohibition drives under ground the mischief which it seeks to cure, making it more difficult to deal with the evil and impossible to regulate the trade." Bishop Hall, Vermont. "Prohibition has been dis astrous to the cause of tem perance." Bishop Clark, Rhode Island. These men are sincere and conscientious. They deplore drunkenness and cry against it as a great evil Who, in deed, does not? Yet they know from observation and experience, that prohibition does not put a check upon intemperance but that, on the contrary, it gives rise to evil3 even greater than intemperance itself. Paid Advertisement L D. Ulrica, Ckamber of Commerce, Portland.Ore There is no real necessity for the large amount of sickness, both triv ial and serious, in the fall. The body is built to adjust Itself to ex tremes of temperature and to wide varieties in weather conditions. The one principal thing necessary for the body to make the adjustment need ed for weather changes, is simply good care. If we eat properly and take good care of the body we can bo well in fall and spring, in sum mer and winter; we can have all-the year-around health. Many of our fall disorders are made possible by reason of a "run down" condition of the body, due to summer overeating. The hot weather makes it impossible for the body to burn up the amount of heavy food frequently eaten. The unused food fills the body with waste materials, overworks the vital or gans, and lowers the disease-resisting power, so that by fall the body is ready to take in whatever dis ease is prevalent. If the fall finds you "run down," cut out all heavy food for a few day3, eating only fruits and vegetables, and see to it that tho body's great sewers, the bowels and the skin, 'are wide open. A few days of this treatment will clean out the system, rest the vital organs and prevent an attack of ill ness. Following this, heavy food As the weather becomes cooler, may bo cautiously consumed, the body to keep it3olf warm, needs more of the fats, such as butter, ba con, fat meats and oils for food; also slightly more of the starches, such as bread? of every kind, potatoes, rice and cereals. An increase in the meats is also needed as the cool weather advances. However, care should be taken not to overeat. Overeating is an almost universal habit. Bad air plays an important part in causing our fall colds, Bore throats and other disorders that develop as we begin to house ourselves up, after practically living out of doors during the summer. As cold weather ap proaches, don't neglect to open wide the bed room windows at night anil to open up tho house and change the air during the middle of the day. Disorders of digestion make up a greater part of all diseases, because abuse of the stomach is the eouinon est form of health abuse. 2,000 Men Pledge Dry Vote. When Billy Sunday, the famous baseball evangelist, spoke in Port land on Oregon dry to an audience of 2,000 men, he asked all those who were going to vote dry to stand up. Everyone in the great crowd stood up and thunderously, repeated the promise to vote dry. It's "Let'er Buck, Oregon." Further evidence that the famous slogan of the Round-up Is a syno nym for Pendleton was had this morning when Mrs. Roy Horn re ceived a letter addressed to her from Santa Rosa, California, by her hus band as follows: "Mrs. Roy Horn, Let'er Buck, Oregon. "The letter came through without missing a connec tion. Pendleton East Oregonian. Heppnerites Victims of Fire. ' Mr. and Mrs. Fred Cllngan, for merly of tills place, were sufferers from the recent fire at Burns. Both Mr. Clingan and his wife are engag ed in business over there, he being interested in a livery stable and she in the millinery business. The fire destroyed $70,000 worth of proper ty In the town. Mrs. Clingan suf fered an entire loss of her goods, amounting to $500, with no insur ance, and all tho horses owned by Mr. Clingan were burned. The liv ery barn was partially insured. A CONTRAST. A contrast and its chief cause is shown by the cases of Preston, Pennsylvania, and Wellsville, Kan sas. The Pennsylvania town is said to be the "wickedest in America." Four hundred and twenty-five of its five hundred inhabitants drink whis key, and four hundred and fifteen of the four hundred and twenty-five are said to get drunk regularly. Wells ville, the Kansas town, forty-el,-,'!'., miles from Kansas City, is forty-tour years old, "as a population of ven hundred and fifty, and has never had a saloon in its history. It has neer had a case of rape or of murder; a pauper, a thief, or a lawyer. Of course Its inhabitants are not all saints, but they have no pool-rooms and no bawdy houses. There is a twenty-flve-thousand'dollar school house, set on a sixty-acre play ground. There are brick and ce ment sidewalks, and brilliant street lights at all crossings. Everybody in town works hard except the town marshal. Once an agent for a mail order liquor house visited Wellsville, but before he had booked any orders fifteen feminists, armed with horse whips, marched to his hotel and the salesman departed minus his sample-case. Would you rather buy real estate In Preston, Pennsylvania, or In Wellsville? Would you rather bring up a family In the "wickedest town in America," or in the Kansas com munity? Rene Laldlaw in Septem ber Lipplncott's, O. C. Liter, for 10 years city ed itor of the Oregonian, has resigned that position to become political manager for William Hanley, Pro gressive Candidate for United States Sonator. In announcing his resignation, tirement from tho newspaper busi tirenment from the newspaper busi ness for the present regardless of the result of the approaching political campaign. Horace E. Thomas, for several years assistant city editor of the paper, succeeds his former chief, and Walter R. May, it is stat ed, has been named to succeed Thomas. "I am leaving newspaper work and casting my fortune with Mr. Hanley," said Mr. Leiter, "because of my personal regard for him. I have formed a strong personal at tachment -for Mr. Hanley, and hon estly believe that he is senatorial timber, and if elected will be a cred it to tho state. Mr. Hanley intends to make a vigorous campaign of the stato through the newspapers and by speech-making in every county and I shall have charge of this cam paign." Mr. Leiter has been in the employ of the Oregonian for almost 14 years. He started first as College man when a student at Stanford University and reporter, then becom ing a full fledged reporter. He was appointed assistant city editor to succeed Henry E. Reed, now County Assessor and became city editor in November, 1904. In making known Mr. Letter's resignation, E. B. Piper, managing editor, says: "Mr. Leiter resigns after years of faithful and efficient service. The change will probably occur this week. Mr. Letter's resig nation is accepted with regret. He goes with the good will of the Ore gonian and the regret of the staff." Mr. Leiter has opened headquar ters for the Hanley campaign at the Oregon Hotel where he will bo glad to see the friends and supporters of Mr. Hanley, and also to have them address him. Rev. J. I). Crooks Is Acquitted. After a trial at Moscow, Idaho, lasting for seven days, Rev. J. D. Crooks, well known Methodist min ister, was acquitted of the charge of murdering his wife. Because of the prominence of Rev. Crooks and his wide acquaintance throughout this section, there was much interest in the outcome of the preliminary hear ing. While the case was gone into quite thoroughly there was nothing produced to substantiate the charge of murder, and no grounds for hold ing him to the higher court could be laid. Rev. Crooks was in attendance at the annual conference of his church at Weston the past week. .Ships Bucks to Montana, Leet Paine got in from Monument on Thursday last with a shipment of two cars of bucks that went out from the Heppner yards on Saturday. These were delivered at this place to Tom Boylen who takes them to Bil lings, Montana. Mr. Paine states that there are few fine wool sheep left in Oregon any more, and the de mand for this class of stuff is begin ning to grow quite strong. He real ized a good price per head for the bucks and Is propagating more of the same class. Mr. Paine ownes one of the very best stock ranches in the Monument section, and while he has for years largely given over his holdings to the running of sheep, he is now be ginning to branch out and is going into hog raising quite extensively. He has had plenty of feed around to take care of a bunch of hogs, as well as some cattle for his own consump tion but has not thought It worth while to do a commercial business in the hog line. The coming season he will have a large number of pork ers for sale, and hopes to help to a considerable extent in supplying the demand for sausage necessary to feed the German army. A Neighborly Act. The Frank Moyer heading and thrciihing outfit pulled into the field of Robert Van Horn, of Ulackhorse, one day the past week and put the old gentleman's crop in the sack for him, and after the Job was complet ed in good shape, they silently pull ed out again. It took the crew just a day to complete the work, all of which was done without compensa tion on the part of Mr. Van Horn For more than a year past, Mr. Van Horn has been an invalid and con fined the greater part of the time to his bed and not able to perform any manual labor, so when the time ar rived that his little crop of grain should be harvested, his neighbors took It upon themselves to attend to the job and save thelk 3ick neighbor all the expense In connection there with that they could. J. W. Mar- latt furnished the sacks, JFrank Moyer donated the use of his outfit, the men at work with him gladly furnished their labor, and Mr. Van Horn was made to realize that he is dwelling among a lot of mighty good neighbors who are always will ing- and ready to help a fellow man in time of need.
