TIIK ,H)l "K Ai.lST S CliF.Fl. By Walter WUr-.tr,;. Poan of Mis souri University S-.lsool of Journal ism. I believe in the profession of journalism. I believe that the public journal is a public trust; that all connected with it are, to the full measure of their responsibility, trustees for the public; that acceptance of lesser ser vice than the pumie service is a be trayal of this trust. I believe that clear thinking and clear statement, accuracy and fair ness are fundamental to good jour nalism. I believe that a journalist should write only what he holds in his heart to be true. I believe that suppression of the news for any consideration other than the welfare of society is inde fensible. 1 believe that no one should write as a journalist what he would not say as a gentleman; that bribery by one's own pockethook is as much to be avoided as bribery by the pocket book of another; that individual re sponsibility may not be escaped by pleading another's instructions or an other's dividends. I believe that advertising, news and editorial columns should alike serve the best interests of the read ers; that a single standard of helpful truth and cleanness should prevail for all; that the supreme test of good journalism is the measure of its pub lic service. I believe that the journalism which succeeds best and best deserves suc cess fears God and honors man; is stoutly independent, unmoved by pride of opinion or greed of power, constructive, tolerant, but never care less, self controlled, patient; always respectful of its readers, but always unafraid; is quickly indignant at in justice; is unswayed by the appeal of privilege or the clamor of the mob; seeks to give every man a chance and, as far as law and honest wage and recognition of human brotherhood can make it so, an equal chance; is There is no better source to learn about what wireless telephony will do. or at least likely to do, then from one of the men who has done much to bring it to its present mar velous development. Pr. Peter Cooper Hewitt is that man. His work has contributed materially to the successful demonstration of a few days ago in which the human voice was transmitted not only in telligibly but clearly from the Ar lington station in Virginia to Hono lulu. Dr. Cooper predicts that wireless telephony will serve to supplement the work ot established wire lines be tween rural communities. That is to say. by means of wireless, subscrib ers living along rural telephone lines will be able to communicate with their neighbors across country, where the sparsity of the population will not warrant the construction and maintenance of wire lines. He also states that wireless may be operated where there is power available inde pendent of wire telephony, as for in stance the power necessary for the lighting of an ordinary incandescent bulb. That power, he maintains, will be sufficient to operate the family wireless for a distance of twenty miles in any direction. According to the same authority wireless is likely to play an impor tant and economical part in the ex tension of wire lines where rivers are to be crossed and there are no bridges. Transmission is such case is now accomplished by means of sub merged cables, but we are told that the necessity for this will be finally obviated by the use of wireless. Concerning wireless over seas, it is the opinion of this authority that the expense will prevent general use; but we have the right to assume that following the history of great discov eries and inventions in applied sci ence, wireless telephony will ulti mately mean the establishment of news gathering stations at every port, and the extended use of the same invention as between moving vessels and as between the traveler at sea and friends and business associates ashore. Concerning the employment of wireless on moving trains, while such service has as yet been installed in but few instances, scientists and in ventors can see final adjustments to be worked out that will make it of great value in the operation of trains, With wireless telephony, for example. the weather will never put the wires out of commission. The factor of certain and reliable operation will be realized; and this in itself is to be taken as an assurance of high effi ciency in whatever field wireless is employed. Portland Evening Tele gram. well gotten up, tells some facts that every Oregonian should know and gives the reader an appetite for the foods advertised. But this is not to be an ad. for the Pacific Coast P.iscuit Co. From the view point of the Sentinel every Oregonian should eat biscuits made in Oregon in preference to those made in the East, everything else being equal. Doubtless the bis cuit company takes the same view. Prom the viewpoint of the Sentinel Oregon merchants should handle only home produced biscuits and again the biscuit makers will probably agree with us. From our viewpoint, Oregonians 25 YEARS AGO IN HEPPNER From The Gazette of Oct. 16, 1S90. Judge Wra.

If merchants carried none but Oregon-made goods when they could be secured it is probable that their cus tomers would get into the habit of using no others. Why does the Oregon merchant carry Eastern-made goods when he can get Oregon-made goods of the same quality? Why in the name of common sense does he carry Royal Baking Powder, National Biscuits, Hart, Sehaffner & Marx Clothing, Ostermoor Mattresses, Heinz's 57 Va rieties, Chase & Sanborn Coffee, 3 in 1 Oil, Old Dutch Cleanser, Nabisco Wafers, Ivory Soap, Barrington Hall Coffee, L. L. May's Seeds, Campbell s Soup and a few hundred other Eastern-made articles if just as good ar ticles in the same line are made In Oregon? It is because the buyer wants these goods and it is the merchant's business to sell what the buyer wants. ' Why does the buyer want these Eastern-made articles? Surely pure patriotism should impel him to wish for Oregon-made goods. The reason that the buyer wants these goods is largely because he has seen the names of these gopds in dis play and othr kinds of type so often that he asks for that kind without really knowing why. He has tried them, knows that they are good as the advertising say they are, and he keeps on buying because the advertis ing tells him to. There is a solution for this prob lem and the Eastern manufacturer who ships his goods from the Miss issippi River and Atlantic seaboard and sells them In competition with Oregon-made goods has shown what it is. It is' to so impress upon the buyer the name of Oregon-made goods that he will look for them just as he now does for Royal Baking Powder, Na bisno Wafers, National Biscuits, Kir schbaum Clothing and other nation ally advertised articles. Then the local merchant w ill not have to carry Eastern-made goods to satisfy his customers. It will not do any good for Coast manufacturers to go to sleep theoriz ing that Coast people should buy Coast-made goods from patriotic, mo tives. While they are sleeping someone in Cottage Grove may be reading a magazine, a Portland newspaper, or the Cottage Grove Sentinel. A dis play line catches his eye. The next day be buys a Kirsehbaum suit be cause that is what the display line told him to buy. Of course he could get just as good clothes made in Oregon of Ore gon wool but he has never seen a dis play line that would lead him to be lieve that woolen goods are even made in Oregon consequently the money spent for that suit goes to pay laborers who spent all their money on the other side of the continent. Oregon manufacturers have got to heat Eastern manufacturers at their own game. They have got to change indiffer ence to Oregon-made goods into a de mand for them. The Pacific Coast Biscuit Co. lias chosen wisely in using the country newspaper in its campaign as the medium with which it will create such a demand. erage spuds of the season so far as ihe agricultural editor has seen. They were raised on bunchgrass without a drop of irrigation. Some three weeks ago Frank Troutman, who lives near Lexington, ran a thorn into the little finger of his left hand, which so affected the bone and membrane covering it that it began to decay. On last Friday he come to Heppner and had two ampu tations performed. Dr. A. L. Fox at tending him. The condition of the remaining stump may require an other operation. Later -Another amputation was performed on Tues day by Drs. Shipley, Geoghegan and Swinburne. P. 0. Borg, Senator Blackman, V. R. Ellis, Matt Litchentall and the editor of the only Heppner Gazette were In attendance at the session ot Grand Lodge, Knights of Ppthias held in The Dalles this week. Brothers Borg and Blackman represented Dor ic Lodge No. 20, the active lodge of Heppner, while the other went along to keep them company, and with the exception of Bro. Ellis, to take their Grand Lodge degrees to which they were entitled as Past Chancellors, and all to affiliate -with members of a brotherhood which is firmly and universally established in all Oregon. On Monday evening about 9 o' clock and after the band boys had finished their practice, they were pi loted to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Brown by Mr. J. D. Hamilton. After playing a piece on the outside, the boys were invited in by Mr. Brown and were treated to wedding cake, cigars, etc. A pleasant hour and a half was spent with these new ly married people and the band boys all join in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Brown much happiness. On Tuesday evening the band serenaded Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Potter at the residence of Frank McFarland. On being invited in they were treated to the grandest repast of the season, and Mr. and Mrs. McFarland have the thanks of the entire band for such a splendid treat. "DU BARRY" AT THE HOME George Kleiue's "Du Barry" fea turing the original ca-t of the fa mous stage play, is said to be the most magnificently set and richly ca parisoned picture in the history of the silent drama. It is reasonable to suppose that the enterprise, and busi ness initiative which a-'Luated George Kleine in gathering together a com pany of professionals of the caliber of Mrs. Leslie Carter, Hamilton Re velle, Campbell Gollan and Richard Thornton would not fail in those oth er esentials of the master-picture. All Europe was rummaged to obtain hangings, furniture of various kinds, equipages and what-not, correct as to period. Even the long forgotten arms of Du Barry are embroidered on the beautiful coverlet of Mme. Du Barry's bed, which the casual French student will readily translate, "Bou tez en avant" (to step forward or make progress). In these details Du Barry is without peer or precedent in picture making. "Du Barry" comes to the Home Theatre on Friday and Saturnay, October 22 and 2 3. HARDMAN.
