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. . .

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. . . . .

BUT ia other directions co-opeiatioii T is "not only desirable,
hut natural. 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. "smelL.and look"
of.it. '.'. ' . , , ;'. ,
i Naturally, therefore, the publication of his name would be
particularly humiliating. ' For one can readily understand tho
embarrassing and in some respect's :,un just position lie oc
cupies. ; . ".I' : '; . , ;
...
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

Press Comment
Portland and football
( The rather skimpy crowd of.
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

Irf both cities; Unseating tho driv-l
