For what tliv.pear growers need uiiovc everything' else is an aeeurate knowledjje of the true situntiuli, before any definite course of action is adopted. Let the polvciesof the organization he the natural product of the facts, as the situation actually IS rather than as some enthusiasts may belreve .it to bt and (he qEnaiiization will, succeed because it -will have that support of the industry as a whole which is essential -to success. . . . i.' . OOD SEXSK is also displayed by the cpuiiul in steering: J clear (if any connection, directly or indirectly, with.ihc actual sale of ))cars. It is folly to try to 'establish co-operative marketing where competition is inhcrent'in the situa'tion. ., The growers bf the various districts 'along the? coast arc naturally more interested' in their own profits thaiuj he profiis of any of tho near, or distant, neighbors, and no organization is going to change this situation. . . . . . i - - '.'..

Anything,, for example, that will) increase the market range for pears will help the pear gnnver in:California and Washington, as well as the pear grower iifOregonj Also anything like advertising that will increase the consumption of pears, not as a special type or brand idf as'a COMMODITY will help the pear grower .in one district, as greatly as in another. .. .. .,... .. . , : .. I such directions, therefore, there should be co-operation, for common benefits can best be secured only by common ac tion. And here is where, the Pear Council will effectively f unc tion., and, in our opinioTi, if intelligently managed, eventually pay big dividends in dollars and cents, to every pear grower on the Pacific Coast. THE CRUEL FATE OF IT is easy to understand that Hcnd juror's desire for anonym ity. He is accused of sampling the evidence in a moonshine caso too liberally, and abusing the court bailiff "in a reckless fashion.",. . ; . ... i ..... , . It requires no Sherlock Holmes to deduce" the fact that ho is a eitin who takes his public duties seiSously, and rofuses to deviate from that fundamental, principle, qEmjfrioai. juriupvit, deuce, that a defendant is assuined to be innocent until lu guilt has been proved beyond a reasonable doubt. : H is-also highly probable 'be is a teetotaller, for otherwise lie "woufd Have been able to identify intoxicating liquor by the.

AN unusually conscientious citizen and total abstainer, natur ally he refused to assume the incriminating evidence was intoxicating until he had sampled it. Oiie or two drinks didn't convince him, so he took several. ...The reactions were convinc ing to his fellow jurors and to the court bailiff. Hut not to the "gentleman from -Missouri." , ! - , - ' Here was a new and not unpleasaiit, experience: The jury room became tinted with a rosy "glow, the. whole world whirled in a happier and brighter orbit. One couldn't quite understand why the rest of .tho jurors couldn't 'seff it,land why they did not resent, as lie resented, the intrusion of the "Kill Joy" eouit bailiff.. , ;;..-, . 1 Naturally the bailiff had to be piit-ilt'liis place',' and the all- important task of establishing exact nature of the evidence continued. 'It was. continued and the fact determined. Anil' then, what should the bailiff do but file a charge, and the grand jury re turn an indictment! v Who can blame such an innocent victim of eircuiirsta litres fir desiring anonymity,. . , ... . . . .,., . .... ,. - .

Portlsndera who turned out to j witness the recent Oregon lla-j waiian football game was u pro- Hawaii and anti-Oregon crowd j and manifested Its sympathies for . th visitors constantly and lustily.' Tho Albauy Democrat-Herald com-; meats that "tho crowd turned' traitor fo the homo team." llard- ly that Turning traitor implies u; prior fealty and Portland crowds never havo manifested any par- tleular friendship for tho support of Oregon football teams. That! of course, Is tholr privilege but It is worthy of being noted Just, now because of tho recent tall; ; about taking thu all-Oregon game -between university and college to Portland hereafter. Tho Oregoniun takes a view op posite from that of the Albany paper. lt says the tendency of, tho Portland crowd to cheer tho1 visitors- did not imply -any 'tin-! .friendliness to the University ol'i Oregon. So far as The Oregonian is concerned that statement may be accepted fully but if tho crowd's manifestations did not Im ply a wish that tho visitors mbht Win and Oregon lose. Just what did they " imply? Not mere ab stract H.vmpathy for tho under dog, for Hawaii was"not the undor dog but a real threat all tho way. Tho Pot-Handera made It quite ' plain that they wanted to see Oregon lose and they heckled and derid ed 'tho Oregon team and individ ual Oegon players. 1 i ,The Portland press is loyal to Oregdn football teams whether of university or college but Port4j land football crowds are not. ThW Is something to remember if talk,j is revived of taking games to. Portland that ought to be played In Eugene. or Corvallis. P6rtlnnti neither supports,, football nor, cleaves to Oregon football teams.; (Eugene Register), i ' WHAT IH-RTS KKCKI.teSa muvisR.s i After' n considerable experieneo with fines for speeding motor driven; Kansas City hna decided tho fines nro not a deterrent and have flliled completely; to tench caution to reckless drivers.

In Illinois tho law provides the driver may bo. nrohlhlted from use of tho carl for a period to he fixed' by tftrfi eourt. after conviction, If the facts prove the driver has no regard' for the rights of others. . Unseating the driver and impos ing stiff terms of imprisonment; If an unseated driver is caught driving, will he tried, probably; Irf both cities; Unseating tho driv-l er will hurt and imprisonment should mnko them remember their troubles. No city should hesitate; to go as far as provisions of thrj law permit in taking tho rocklesn drivers off the streets and keep ing theiri away from tho auto steering wheel. They are a men ace to life, a public nuisance that should be abated sternly, (Ohio State Journal). ' VCH.Ii UOGERS' JOKE .
