neral." Chan. Stanton drove over from Wal
la Walla on Sunday to spend a day
here looking after his farm interests,
lie states that it will be necessary to
do some receding on his Eight Mile
farm, and he was arranging to have
this done. In the Walla Walla coun

greater portion of the light lands and
conditions in this respect are very
similar to what they are here, states
Mr. Stanton. He is also of the opin
ion that much damage was done to
fruit in the Walla Walla valley, es
pecially to peaches and cherries.

the epidemic is under control now

operation of Justice Goodwin and
Constable Gorham in getting the dis
ease under control promptly.

from their farm on Tuesday, the first

POULTRY bl HlNESB HURT
BY FOWL P LAG I E PANIC
That the hipping of day-old chicks
across state lines is not affected by
the quarantine and embargo regula
tions aganist the fowl plague is the
assurance to Oregon poultry breed
ers given by the state college exper
iment station at Corvallis.
The fowl pest has caused consterna
tion and actual loss in middle west
ern 'states and soma states farther
east, says Dr. B. T. Simms, head of
the veterinary medicine department,
but has not appeared in any state as
far west as the Rocky mountains ro
far as known. Unfounded reports
tend to throw a panic into some poul
try growers and damage the breeders
correspondingly.
Dr. L. F. Pelton, state veterinarian
of Washington, has wired Dr. Simms
that the regulations made by that
state do not apply to day-old chicks.
The same may be saidof the Califor
nia regulation!!, and as far as known,
of those of Idaho and other states.

Democratic "playboy" Congraa who
iv-iu-d the opportunity the other day to
move far the abolition of the Tariff Com-
mimion are already learning that their tit-,
tlf joke doe not meet with the approval of
the people at large. During the lant year
a ralher extraordinary rhanare baa takn
.lace rnTardins the Tariff Hoard, whim tne
dtrnocrau auuarentlr had entirely forgot
ten wh-n they atarted their movement. The
Hoard haa become a court or appeal ior
the farmera of the country. Ita lat moat
notable dt-cUiott waa made at a time whea
the wheat, i-rowera of the country were
threatened with a Urn price de-preaaion
due to an Influx of Canadian wheat. It
then moved under the law and provided an
increase of 12l per eent in the import
duty, thua protecting the farmera. At dif
ferent timea alo the Hoard naa given iia
attention to the olitrht of our American
chete and butter m altera and our poultry
and fir ir raitter. IndWd H haa been made
apparent that the Tariff Commiaaion from
now on la likely to play an even more Im
iwirtant part by means of decisiona aimilar
to the wlwat decision for the protection of
the American farmera. When a market is
mo sensitive that the arrival in the port of
New York of a butter steamer from Den
mark with a supply hardly sufficient for
one day's consumption in New York, op
erate!, to depreaa the price of butter 2 cents
a pound all over the United Mate, the
need of an authoritative Hoard with power
to meet such conditions ia self-evident. The
blindneaa of democrats who for a petty
partisan victory seek to destroy fetich an or
ganization is once again made plain to all.
The pOrWbHity of effective Farm legi-
latioa beiaa enacted during; the remain inf
days of the prnnttt aet"a ta admittedly
growing u it dubiou. rreidnt 'olidge
in appointing the Agricultural tym mis
sion to make a iurvey and eufrjtrst rrnwlwa
particularly impreered on the Commtwion
hia eWirtr for quack action. Hi ioH ton
ia uncKuDtr'-d. but the herir.g whtrh op
ened MoMiay, rVbruary 2. have already de
veloped a d-cidd di virion of opinion aa to
the proper remdte, in fact, a general eon
fusion among the agricultural expert
which doen not incrt-ane the chance of
immediate effective action along the lines
which the I resident d-irn. Tht-re are
aliso substantial giuund for belief that the
in-unft-nt m-iii liera of 0ngrea nursing a
grievance, b-THUne the farmera failed to
rally to 'he third party atndard, are ac
tively "i-Mpiiiir" the legi-lation with the
idem of tb') punishing the farmem. Thin
i aa un fortunate situation, but happily
the delay cannjt p-rint beyond the open
ing of the next fwion of Congreaa for in
that body the president will have a work
ing majority refcponttive to hw d-ires.
Attain fortunately the President's deter
mination to Aecure the enactment of such
a program can never be weakened by rea
iton of dej-ty.
Uncle Sim Hotted his trade balance sheet
for Wli m i'h about one billion on the
right side of the ledger. It will be recalled
during the laa campaign that the third
party speaker and the free trade Demo
crat pmiKted universal disaster as a re
sult of the existing tariff law. They an
nounced from the Btump that our exports
would dwindle to naufht, but the Depart
ment of Commerce in figures just made
public state that the ex-wtrt reached the
amazitig total of $4,590,1 4,73, while the
imports amounted to t2,f10,5f2..ri6i. The
total for 1!23 was $4,167,41:j.0w0 and im
ports for that year were valued at $3,1'J2,-Ofif-,968.

to provide low mailing rate for relirious.
fraternal, labor, educational and similar
pui.lica' too laaued by organixationa devot
ed to the aeveral lines of activity has
met with univf-n-ai approval.
Senator hutler in introduenig this am
endment felt that libcrai recognition ma tar
aa po-ible should be given to new-papers
iiid anags-iiium of this character. The prin
ciple which exempt churrh, fraternal and
schofil property fr.m taxation, Senator But
ler lieh-vea, should be extended to theae
publicationa. 1 he Senate by a vote of 51
to 2 sustained his suggestion. It waa a
graceful act, yet without this move on bbs
part it la plain that a great injustice
would have been done to a large body of
our people, for aa was said on the floor of
the Senate:
Thee organizations represent Intererta
that lie at the very foundation of oar civil
iwition, of our progress and development
ax a people. They are engaged in work
that ia not conducted for private profit,
but that ia pursued in the interests of hu
manity, and ir the fnterwt of a higher
civiliiation. They do not represent gain
ful occupation. TVy represent charity.
They represent beoevoience.
Although the Senate Bill ha been he'd
ap in the House due to a parliamentary
technicality there I no doubt if enacu-d it
will contain the Butler amendment.
The extra ftewion of Congress called by
President Coolidge for March 4 ia only for
the purpose of considering the confirmation
of appointments of the new administration.
A similar session Is held at the beginoing
of each new administration.

The moral strength of the great Emancipator, whose
birthday we this week observe, was never tested so as
whn he had the courage to say "Right Maks Might" at one
of the darkest moments in the history of this nation.
It was the strength to do only that which he knew to be
right that endeared him o suffering humanity and will
always cause us to pay tribute at his shrine. Not all of
us may become immortal but by "hewing to the line"
with the faith of Lincoln we can gain happiness and a
full life.
Such living is thrifty living. Like attracts like and
in this thought we ask you to know this institution. This
bank is founded upon the policy of strength in protection
of its customers. We stand ready and willing to explain
and show you many ways to make your life easier.
