Abraham Lincoln. An Opportunity for Mr. Eberlein Why Not Substantial Sympathy for Water Users? "Down With Cigarettes" Being t!te Cry of the Late Carrie Nation L The Way of the Transgressor The policies of R. E. Bradbury, president of the district irrigation board, were endorsed at the last election by an overwhelming major ity. Chief among the various planks, box boards, if you please, and full of knot holes, was an expressed determination to bust the Copco power contract wide open. This promise should not be forgotten. Bradbury already has the invitation of Dr. El wood Mead to start the fireworks. A compe tent attorney should be employed by the dis trict and this matter threshed out in court. If there is anything in the contract that is inim ical to the water users and that has been ac quired by fraud the entire contract should be abrcgated. Allowed to smoulder this matter will con tinue as a thorn in the side of the district. It now stands in the way of any basis of under standing between the district and the reclama tion service. Bradbury and Secretary Thomas may prefer t6 have it so continue. The difficulty i3 that litigation will cost the already over-burdened district money. But that should not hamper the board. Look at the stakes. The power company can be made to pay the costs of construction and bear the operating expense'of the entire district. Perhaps the artful Charles .Wood Eberlein, whose heartfelt sympathies are so wrapped up in the affairs of the district, will put up a few thousands for attorney's fees. y Pit ' 'W'Ia " 1rf a u. , . - Publishers Column The Best of Advice By CLARK KINNAIBD Over in Portland today a 60-year-old anti tobacconist is to walk 48 miles in competition with two admitted cigarette fiends. The old boy wants to take on a couple, of bubbling pipe or fag inhaling college boys, but unsea soned youth did not make an appearance. In response to the challenge an ex-service man and a shoe salesman are entered. Carrie Nation should flop over with joy. As cigarettists, the writer and his asso ciates are rooting for the old boy. More than likely the ex-service man never did 48 miles any day he was in the army. The shoe sales man will likely be cursing the man who made his shoes before the day is over. The old boy is touted to win. His name is Robin. May he have wings on his feet. All cigarettists know smoking does them no good. Every once in a while they like to have it proved to their satisfaction. Then they light another. -o Eugene citizens are studying the city man ager form of government. Klamath Falls wants to study it, but doesn't seem to get its feet in the stirrups. If you can't enjoy those who read sub titles aloud, you can at least enjoy their pronunciation. WHY W1EXC K RILES 1 fhe taswer of the writer of this column'' loathe question. "Wont'1 knowledge Is of the most worth?" Is Science, as has been stated here. 8ome readers take exception. "The knowledge that every good act Is rewarded, and every bad one punished. Is more valuable," they declare. And our reply Is. no subject teaches this lesson sa well as dona science. Herbert Spencer defines science as knowledge reduced to Law and embodied In System. It It a law that Nature enforces, and there can be- no violations without certain punishment from a court where money and alienists and lawyers and more alienists avail nothing. Spencer tells us that for dfrect self-preservation, or the mainten ance of life and health, the most Important knowledgo Is Science. "For that indirect self-proserva-tlon which we call livelihood, the knowledge of the greatest value Is Science. "For the due discharge of pa rental functions, the proper guid ance Is to be found only In Science. "For tlhat interpretation of na tional life, past and preient, with out which the citizen cannot right ly regulate his conduct, the in dispensable key Is Science. Alike for the most pcrfcrt pro duction and highest enjoyment of Art in all Its forms, the needful preparation Is still Science. "And for purposes of discipline Intellectual, moral, religious the most efficient study Is once more Science." No need to teacti the young the value of good conduct If they take to heart the lessons of science. Equally at present and In the remotest future, must Real Scl ence, accepting nothing by blind faith, be of Incalculable import ance for the regulation of their conduct,, that men should under stand the science of life, physical, mental and social; nnl that they : should undnrstend all other '! ence as a key. to the n.icnre of life. . r Kitchen .book'; shelves should . not be formiUao-it thwe-te room to put them In. Underneath a built-in Utile, desk will be the greatest of comfrts, for there are go many things that come to the kitchen to bo attended to. that have to hare pencil, paper and other necessities at hand makes It much castor than to havo to g'i elsewhere to find them.

W til AhjpL I a An American travelling In Ku rope engaged a courier. Arriving at an inn In Austria, the man ask d his servant to enter hi nam in accordance with the police reg ulations of that country. Rome time after, the man asked the ser vant if ha had complied with his orders. "Yes, sir." was the reply. "How did you write my name?" asked tho master. "Well, sir, 1 can't pronounce It," answered the servant, "hut I cop led It from your portmanteau, sir." "Why, my name Isn't there. Bring mo tho book." The regis ter v. as brought, and, Instead of the plain American name of two sylablos the following entry was roveaied: "Monsieur Warranted Solid leather." ( An Episcopal missionary in Wy oming visited one of the outlying district In his territory for the purpose of conducting prayer In the home of a large family not conspicuous for its piety. He made known his Intentions to the wo man of the house, and she mur mured vaguely that "she'd go out and see." . She was long In returning, and after a tiresome wait the mission ary went to the door and called with some Impatience: "Aren't you coming In? Don't you care anything about your BOUls?" "Souls?" yelled the head of tho family from tho orchard. "Wo haven't got time to fool with our fouls when the bcos are smarming." Homo women Imparl genuine Idealism to newspaper publishing.
