WE HAVE talked to you a great deal about the fuel and labor that is
saved and the satisfaction that is enjoyed in the kitchens where the
meals are prepared on a MONARCH MALLEABLE RANGE.
A LL NEXT week we are not only going to explain all the pleasant features of the Monarch
to you, but we are going to give you the opportunity of seeing one in actual operation.
One of your own townswomen is going to cook and bake good things every day next week
at our store.
We want to show you how to save a lot of unnecessary kitchen drudg
ery. How to haye quick and sure results. How to save time and money.

We claim a great many things for the Monarch and base our claims on
the exclusive features of construction and the army of satisfied house
wives the country over.
The Monarch does not need a "factory demonstrator;" you can get the same results in
your own kitchen with a Monarch that you see obtained here.
There is no mystery in the construction ot a Monarch. We want you to see how a range
should be built to be dependable toda-, next month, next year and for many years to come.

WHAT IS PERFECT FREEDOM?
We hear on every hanrl the words,
"No man lias a right to rule over oth
er men, all men should be free."
Those are true words, but they
awaken a question:
What is freedom? The quick an
swer Is: "To have no master." That,
too, Is true, but then what ratio of
all men on the earth are so blessed.
Another answer is, "The right to
vote and help make the laws."
That is half a contradiction for If
man was absolutely free he would
need no laws.
We say such and such a people are
not fit to be free, they are so igno
rant. Yet there are men who are densely
Ignorant so far as books are concern
ed who are first class citizens be
cause they are endowed with an all
embracing patriotism, and that gives
them the wisdom to determine the
right and wrong between men in the
interest of their country.
If a man has an overmastering vice
he is not free.
If a man is consumed with envy
and jealousy toward a more fortun
ate fellow man, he is not free.
If a man has an overpowering am
bition to obtain by fair or foul
means a certain station, he is not
only not free, but is not entitled to
the samo privileges that belong to
honest, humble men.
If a man in a miser and spends his
nights and days in devising means to
increase liia wealth, he but prattt
like a parrot when he talks about
liberty for his soul has been In chains
al his life.
A licentious man who looks upon
women as his legitimate prey is not
only an inborn slave but a menace
and it not fit to exercise the higher
duties of citizenship.
A man whose mind is surcharged
with superstitions is so pitiable a
slave that he never should be per
mitted to exercise any high duty of
citizenship, for such a man in his
zeal will if given the opportunity be
like those who gathered around the
cross and mocked the dying Christ.
Our country, as if in answer to the
prayers of a century, sent its army
and navy to break the fetters that
the tryanny of the agents of Spain
had riveted upon the wrists and souls
of the men and women of Cuba. The
work was acomplished, the chains
were broken, the island was cleanaed
of its outward filth and order was es
tablished. The people rejoiced that
they were freed from the cruel rule
of Spain but how many of them were
made free from the darkness In their
own souls.
The New England fathers left
their native land that, as they said,
they might be free to worship God
according to the dictates of their own
consciences.
But it required six generations to
enlighten the consciences of one class
of them. Those did not know that
their own souls were so darkened
that they could not be just to their
fellow men who differed with them.
Many of them were destitute of all
charity for an erring brother and
never learned that a soul destitute
of that charity is a soul enslaved.
We claim that ours are a free peo
ple when in truth while free to do
any legitimate thing without an ac
counting, as a people we are not free
in the higher sense.
So many envy a fortunate neigh
bor; so many covet uneared honors
and station; so many crave wealth
so much as to obtain It dishonorably;
to vote for men of or at the dictation
of another Indeed, as yet we are
but half free. All are ready to
spring to the defense of native land,
but who can defend us against our
selves? Every morning from the police
courts men are led away to be pun
ished because the overmastering ty
rants in their souls prompted them
to commit crime.
The work of churches and school
houses should be to try to lift up
souls into that light under which evil
longings wither and die.
There is no other way through
which enslaved souls can expand and
be really free.
Our fathers wrested from tyranny
the right to make our own laws and
choose our own public servants. That
it bat limited freedom; the other
freedom which comes through elim
inating all that is base and unclean
and untrue within us is a far more
difficult conquest, but its rewards are
infinitely greater. Goodwin's WeoK-
ly.
A SCHOOL PEOri-E.
Professor J. B. Horner, of the O.
A. C, in an address at the Albany
High school dedication the other day
said:
"I have carefully studied the geog
raphy and history of the valleys of
the Rhine and Rhone, the Seine and
the Thames, as well as the densely
populated districts of this country,
and have come to the conclusion from
the evidence before me that there are
more colleges, universities, churches,
organs and pianos In the Willamette
Valley between Eugene and Portland
than in any other district of like size
in the world. In this narrow stretch
of territory, 123 miles long by rail
way and covering less than 3,000 sec
tions of land, there are sixteen col
leges and universities, and as many
business colleges and academies.
Every habitable foot of land is ac
cessible to a good public school. Seventy-five
of these public schools teach
high school studies, and many of
them already afford high school
buildings.
"In this little tract of territory is
one-thirtieth of all our colleges and
universities in this country;and these
institutions of learning train about
one-eightieth of the college and uni
versity men in the government.
These figures are all the more re
markable for the reason that there
are no colleges In Southern Oregon,
and but one small one in Eastern
Oregon."
A sense of fair play dictates that
the other sections of Oregon should
share in the educational uplift due
to the maintenance of schools. We
believe the people of the Willamette
Valley will evidence this broad-minded
and fair spirit by voting to reopen
the normal schools in Southern and
Eastern Oregon.
Such stuff is not worth the pnper it
is printed on, and should have no
weight whatever with thinking peo
ple. Regardless of the fact that
many intemperate statements are
presented on both sides of this prohi
bition question when a campaign is
on, the people are becoming weary of
the saloon and its domination of pub
lic and private affairs, and as an in
stitution it will have to go. It is
not needed in Oregon. On November
3, vote for your home and your bays;
pulverize the saloon.
George H. Bishop, of Freewater,
Umatilla County, is the democratic
nominee for Joint Representative in
the 22nd district, comprising Uma
tilla and Morrow counties. Mr. Bish
op la a rising youngattorney of the
east end of Umatilla, and is associat
ed in the practice of law with Will
N. Peterson, of Pendleton. Ilia
platform Is lower taxes, fewer laws,
economy in transacting public busi
ness, especially in weeding out use
les3 commissions which are swallow
ing the taxpayers' money. Mr. Bish
op impresses us as being a wide
awake young man that would make a
useful member of the legislature
should he be elected.
Col. Roosevelt's flatfooted endorse
ment of prohibition in Ohio, has tak
en a lot of wind out of the Oregon
"wetB" who were liberally quoting
him throughout this state as opposed
to prohibition. A great deal of the
so-called oposition of prominent men,
such as governors, congressmen, ex
presidents, and eminent ministers of
the gospel, quoted by the "wets"
and sent out in their campaign liter
ature, Is Indeed far-fetched, A large
percentage of these people are not
supporters of the saloon, have never
been, and this is the kernel In the
nut that is to be cracked in Oregon.
Prohibition means the destruction of
the saloon in this state, and in order
to save the business here, the very
livery ot heaven is being robbed.
D. H. (Bob) Robinson, the anti
prohibition speaker, who has been
making the rounds of all Eastern
Oregon cities the past few weeks,
was in Heppner and delivered a talk
to a fair sized audience at the Club
bulding on Tuesday evening. Mr.
Robinson, after the introduction by
E. C. Maddock, chairman of the eve
ning, proceeded to tell his listeners,
not what a grand institution the open
saloon is, but what a menace to civ
ilization is the blind pigs and blind
tigers. These were his main subjects
of discussion throughout the evening.
Later on he quoted statistics from
Government records which he con
strued to mean that Oregon would be
better remaining as she is, in the
wet column, than adopting such mea
sures as has Kansas, and be in her
condition. He put up the same line
of argument that the Wage Earners'
and Taxpayers' League, (In whose
employ he is working at the present
time) is using in all the advertising
matter sent out by that organiza
tion, not at all convincing to those
who have maHe a thorough study of
the prohibition amendment.
While the turpinite story has
been exploded, it seems as though
the stuff itself, never was. Spokesman-Review.
How much will Heppner contrib
ute to the Christmas Gift Ship that
will bo sent to Europe?
A local doctor has discovered why
a woman's mind is always so fresh.
Because she is continually changing
it.
