The net tier* In the Marble Creek
country who loit their claim* through
the declalort of the general land office
In favor of the atate are appealing to
the leglalature for relief through a
taw relinquishing ita claim to certain
tract* of land. There are probably
■onto valid claims In connection with
thl* where an Injuatlce ha* been done
the settler and there are many other
cases where the claim* of the settler
are subsequent to those of the state
and In doing Juntlce to those who are
entitled to relief great care should be
exercised to prevent the state being
deprived of much valuable timber.
Every individual case should be look
ed Into before the state relinquishes
Its rights In favor of the Individual.
No objecton can be raised to the hon
est settler being protected In this mat
ter.
One of the Interesting contests In
the Oregon legislature has been the
determined effort to repeal the state
ment No. 1 law by which candidates
for the legislature pledge themselves
to support the candidate for United
States senator who receives the larg
est number of vote* at the election,
regardless of party. This law result
ed In the present republican legisla
ture of that state electing Governor
Chamberlain, a democrat, as senator,
and It caused much partisan feeling
and an effort was made to Induce
members of the legislature to violate
their pledges. Palling In this a bill
was Introduced to kill the statement
law and It has been defeated.
The alleged capitol graft In this
state should bo Investigated. If there
Is a deep laid plot to put up an expen
sive building merely for ornamenta
tion and the good It will do Boise, th®
legislature should look Into tho mat
ter thoroughly. In doing so It will
have the support of the people re
gardless of party. This state has no
use for a capitol costing almost $2,*
000,000 and the people will never
consent to a bonding proposition to
raise such a fund for the purpose.
Stop the graft now.
Senator Borah assures President
Roosevelt that Idaho Is not anti-Jap,
but Idaho has a law which prevents
the Jap or other foreigner owning
land In this state and there Is no
fuss about It. The California law
makers may wish to make their law
more stringent as applied to the Ori
ental, but most people believe that
land ownership should be conllned to
cltisens or those who have declared
their Intention to become euch.

A Matrimonial Agent
(Copyright, ISOS, by American Frees Asso
ciation. ]
Driving along a country road, I
name upon a small house bearing a
sign, "Matrimonial Agency." Curios
ity led me to stop and Investigate. In
stead of being received by a woman,
as I expected, a man answered my
summons. He led me Into a poorly
furnished altting room and watted for
me to declare tbe object of my com
ing.
He waa an uncouth looking man,
with red hair and a freckled akin, but
there waa notblug unpleasant about
bis expression unless it was bis eye.
It waa not exactly malevolent; it rath
er Indicated a soul wltbtn harassed by
some adversity.
•'Well," I said when we were seat
ed, "I aaw your sign, and ns I am
looking fur a wife I thought I would
come In and see what you have to of
fer. But drat tell me bow you, a man,
happen to be running a matrimonial
agency, a business that seems to per
tain rather to woman?"
"I'm here to make stories for other
people, not to tell mine."
"What do you menu by making sto
ries ?"
"Stories according to tbe novel writ
ers all begin with tbe meetln' of a
mau and a woman. Uaually tbey mar
ry at tbe end of the yarn, and tbe nov
elist slinks out of tbe business."
"Sllnka out of tbe business?"
*7 don't pretend to make happy mar
riages. I simply introduce people and
let 'em figure It out for themselves."
"But why do you us* tbe word
•slink* In speaking of tbe novelist?"
"Why doesn't be stand up square
and say: Tv* told you about this
couple, what kind of a time they've
had giftin' each other, all the fool
pranks they've played a-dolh' of It to
the day tbey waa married? But y*
mought as well understand that I
don't mean to gay they're goln' to keep
It up. They may git on together, but
tbe cbancee are- for the fust two or
three years anyway—they won't Tbey
may tight right along, bangin' on for
tbe sake of their children, or tbey may
And their way Into the divorce courts.
Anyway, they gut to git over a lot of
troubles.' Ef the novelist would be
fa'r about It and tell bis readers Jlst
what to expect If the story run on. he
wouldn't sell so rnsny of his novels,
but he'd have a clean conscience. He
don't do no slcb thing. He don't eveu
take 'em through tbe honeymoon.
There's tots of couples golu* off to
gether all stone by tbetrselres. a feu red
somebody 'll butt In. aud before they've
got through the honeymoon wish some
body teould butt In. Honeymoon! Why
d" tbey call It honeymoon-? Been use It
changes. When It begins the moon's
full and begins to wane right off. It
lau't tbe bull moon they mean, 'cause
In two weeks the moon's new og'lu and
begins to wane. That's tbe time a
couple begins to git tired of each oth
er's undivided company—that la,- If tbey
don't begin before."
"Oh, you're too aweeplng In your
statements," 1 Interrupted. "There are
lota of happy marriages, lots where
the honeymoon never ends. But I'm
interestsd. Tall me your own story.
I don't want a wife. I only cam* In
her* from curiosity. Of course I've no
right to take up your time without
profit to you. You must make your
-fee all tbe same."
I toaaed a bill on to a table near by.
"Well, stranger, ef y' put It that
a way I don't mind tollin' you. I went
through tbe novel experience part, and
I confess It was very slick. Tbe gal
and I got tbe sulks at each other every
two or three days, sometimes several
times n day. But the maktn' up was
wo'th tt alt. Then we said goodby to
the story business and sailed off into
the honeyinoou stage. Somehow when
we got miffed at each other tbe tuskin'
up wusu'-t so surghum-llke. Before we
got home we had a real tight that we
didn't make up at alt.
"1 wou't go over what follered. Chil
dren came to ua and. seeln* their
mother flghtln' me all the time, they
tnk a baud and tuk to pttchtn' stools
at me. 1 sts-od It for a matter of ten
years, when one day when they drtv'
me outen the bouse with gridirons and
rollin' pins I didn't go back no more.
"They say ef a man wants to get
on be oughter be In a business he
knows aoiueptn about. What I dou't
kuow about matrimony ain't wo'th
knowtn'. But I don't seem to get on
very well at It. 1 reckon I'm too hon
est. Bf I wa'n't no boneeter than the
novelists I could make It go well
enough, but I ain't no stch low down
"There are cases." 1 remarked,
"where one knows too much about his
business or. stated differently, be at
taches too much Importance to hi*
own experience.'*
"That may be tt, stranger. Anyway,
you aeem to be different from tbe rest
who come here. You kuow tt all your
aelf. You don't rely on me for any
thing except the Introduction. That'*
what I want. You've pa hi the fee. You
mought as well get the worth of your
money, l.et me Introduce you to a
young woman I've g*»t on my list
good lookin', healthy, blue eye*. They
any them kind ta trl< ky. but you're not
afraid. She wants a husband.' and she

This attempt to force me to back my
opinions was too much for me. I tie

But on Interest bad been excited In
this unfortunate utau. ami t deter

Recalling what little opportunity he had in
his early youth to get an education, and look
ing back to the days when he walked mile*
and miles for a book (for he then owned none
of his own), Abraham Lincoln pleaded with
the rural and village people, his old friends
and associates to give their children a better
chance—a chance to fight the battles of life
successfully.
SURELY YOU want to give year boy* and girls a kattsr
chance, not necessarily a college education, but better still,
a home education. It is not always the school that gives tb*
education; you can give this same opportunity or better ta
your family right in your own home. Good books—valuaM*
books. Obi how Lincoln cherished these.
What would Lincoln hav* said had yon asked his advie*
on baying a great History ot the World, an entertaiatag
and educational Library for yonr home, "Th# Library m
Universal History," and especially it wa offered it af .
less than halt of the regular price and on easy terms? f
