VIOLA DANA FEATURED
IN “THE MICROBE” ON
BILL AT' RESS
Before the war the cooties were
not recognized in polite society. Dur
ing the war our best families mingled
with them freely. Since the war their
fame still lingers. We may not ap
prove, but we cannot ignore them.
We also acquired germs and mi
crobes. Now there are good germs
and* bad ones, but the microbe is
about the liveliest specie of his tribe.
Why is a microbe? And why is
Viola Dana, daintiest of screen tor
menters, the microbe? Is she of the
harmless or the deadly variety? Is
. she to be taken in small, or large
doses? And does she need an anti
dote?
We might go on asking foolish
questions, but to make a long story
short, Miss Dana is billed at the Em
press tonight in a delightfully hum
orous, whimsical and heart-appealing
romance entitled “The Microbe.”

SWEDES CLAIM
IMPOSSIBLE TO
STAND SOVIETS
STOCKHOLM, Aug. 25.—One hun
dred and forty-eight Swedes, including
30 women and children, have arrived
here by steamship from Russia.
Workmen in the party were unani
mous in saying that it is impossible to
exist in Soviet Russia. Despite the
extravagantly high wages paid, they
said they were insufficient to purchase
necessary food and clothing. The ar
rivals included a number of Swedish
Bolshevist metal workers who, some
months ago, set out for Russia amidst
the cheers of their friends. Some of
their countrymen, they said, had been
detained in Russia against their will.
The only food ration now dis
tributed, the me nsaid, is half a pound
of bread. Fish, horsemeat, sugar, but
ter, tea and other food can only be
obtained, they said, through illegiti
mate trading at incredible prices. A
daily income of 1,000 rubles, one re
turned worker declared, would not be
sufficient to avert hunger. Most in
dustries have practically ceased, it
was said, the great Putilow works hav
ing closed months ago after vain at
tempts to keep it going. ,
Chancellor Oscar Lundberg, semi
official representative of Sweden, said
all foreign legations have been raided
and looted and looked like “stables”
after having been in possession of
Bolshevist soldiers or sailors. All of
the members of the party said they
were ill as a result of the privations
they had experienced.
OREGON PRODUCES
FINEST WHEAT SEED
THE DALLES, Ore., Aug. 25.—
Wasco county has the purest field of
turkey red seed wheat in Oregon, ac
cording to results of a,, state-wide
wheat certification trip recently com
pleted by Prof. G. R. Hyslop of the
Oregon Agricultural college. The
wheat was raised by Albert S. Roberts
at his Boyd ranch and graded 99.98
per cent pure for seed purposes.
It had but one-fiftieth of 1 per cent
impurities, a record not yet approached
by any Oregon wheat inspected by
Professor Hyslop this season.

WASHINGTON
FRUIT DEALERS
ENTER PROTEST
SEATTLE, Aug. 25.—Fruit shippers
of the Wenatchee district have en
tered a strong protest against the
ruling of the interstate commerce
commission which increases the
freight rates on apples from 25 to
33 1-3 per cent. If the proposed in
crease goes into effect it will mean
that fruit growers of this district
will have to pay from $1,350,000 to
$1,875,000 more in freight rates this
year than last, it was said.
A protest is pending before the in
terstate commerce commission on a
freight rate increase of 25 per cent
which went into effect two years ago
and it is probable that the commis
sion will pass on both protests at one
time and fix a final rate for apples
from this territory to the east.
Many Wenatchee shippers are mak
ing preparations to obtain space in
refrigerated steamships from Seattle
to.New York via the Panama canal.
In case the full increase granted to
the railroads stays in effect, it is
said, apples can be shipped much
mere cheaply through the canal than
by rail.
President Wade and Manager Smith
of the Wenatchee Valley Traffic As
sociation have gone to Washington
to look after a final decision on the
rates.
