SINDAT CL0SI5U IS MISSOURI CITIES, In compliance with Governor Folk's onlcrn, the saloons of the three principal cities of Missouri, St. Louis Kansas City and St. Joseph, have been closed from midnight Saturday to midnight Sunday for alwut six months. Comparison of this period with a like period in proceeding years shows some gratifying results. While nothing accurate can t stated as to the comparitivc amount of liquors consumed, it is known that it is less than in former years, and the beer inspector estimates that about l.W.OOO fewer barrels of beer will be consumed in Missouri this year than last, though taking last year's Louisiana Pur chase Imposition into account this may not be very significant. The record of Sunday arrests, however, is one eloquent in support of the enforcement of the Sunday closing law for everybody acknowledges that a large majority of arrests are due to inebriety. In St. Louis the average number of arrests for drunkenness for 15 Sundays from the middle of April to the end of July in and 1904 was about lit; this year, for the same period, it was nine a decrease of more than 40 per cent. The average numler of arrests for disturbing the peace for the same 13 Sundays for HR)'2, llKM, and 1904 was :14; this year it was 20 a decrease of 14 per cent. In kansas City the percentage of decrease in Sunday arrests was IS, notwithstanding many intoxi cated men are thrown out at midnight to be picked up Sunday. Moreover, the nundicr of saloons has de creased during the six months about six per cent, The benedcial effects of Sunday closing are so appur ant in Kansas City that public sentiment has come to be overwhelmingly in favor of it, while in St. Louis, in spite of the large German element which resents the interference with its customs, and in the face of the strong influence of the powerful brewers, the sentiment is becoming much less antagonistic than it was when the order went into effect. Closing of saloons in these cities on Sunday was The Kquitablc U a Unit to lose iu'llydc. The laud fraud cases With Dinger Herman asHhe principal figure will le on in Portland again in a few days. It lacks little of anarchy all over Russia, and there is small prospect that a national assembly will able to bring order out of chaos; more likely will make con fusion worse confounded. Unless step are taken soon to restore Oregon to her place among the states business interests must suf fer. The sad sjiectaele of u state with but one I'nited States Senator and no Congressmen, and without a Federal Judge is surely not to the advantage of the State. The President should appoint a Federal Judge, the Governor should appoint a l S. Senator, and call a special election to elect two Congressmen; and the dead ducks should lc pensioned or appointed commis sioners to the Jamestown fair. Oregon should le on the political map.

If the people don' t want saloons closed on Sundays they can elect men to the legislature who will repeal the law, but while it is the law he intends to enforce it. The man who violates the Sunday closing law, the man who steals hordes, and the man who assaults an other and kills is a law breaker. The enormity of the crime is measured by the penalty attached for violation of the law. CO.0rERATI0!i. The time is ripe for the farmers of Columbia coun ty to unite for their own good in pooling their crops. The success of the Columbia county, Washington bar ley pool getting .K) cents per cental for their crop, and the Marion county hop pool getting the top price for their hops clearly illustrates what maybe accomplished by organization. There i a growing sentiment among the fanners to unite for their own protection. They are enthusi astically taking hold of the project, and so much pro gress has been made toward jK-rmanent organization in the localities referred to, that it is claimed the en terprise is already almost an assured fact. Similar associations in other counties are regarded to subordinate grunt' programmes for ' as evidence of the feasibility of the project. drain the festival days of the grange. Each subordinate grange should have a sim ilar committee to work in conjunction with the lecturer in carrying out the programmes sent by the woman's work committee or in preparing new ones or In doing both. Not only in this work is transactions in many sections are immense. This year individual crops are bringing from $ K)0 to $"))()()). The pooling of crops for market proj)erly comes in the line of grange work.

So it should be constantly- em phasized that In the subordinate grange is the place to "do things" la the subordinate grange the men and wom en are trained and tested f,r useful ness in the representative badies of the Order, and in It the work is done which benefits the great multitude of Patrons Of Husbandry. Bo we would urge upon ourselves, upon ollicers of the national grange, upon the leaders in state und J'omona granges and upon the mem bers of our organization everywhere the Importance of laying special stress upon the work of the subordinate grange and Its members. This work Is Dot less Important because It is less In the public eye than the work of the etate grange. Perhaps It is less In the public eye, but It counts for more in the very heart of the mission of the grange to help the men and women on be farms. Grange Bulletin. Houlton Oregon. Section 1.
