Color of the Eye and Marksmanshi p

1.-The idea that the color OF the eye
has anything to do with expert marks
manship is fallacy." said Captain H.
G. Broun, who came over with the
Twenty-third New York regiment rifle
team to shoot against the Washington
boys at Fort Myer. He was talking
with a reporter at the Ebbitt, and the
question came up as to whether men
with light or dark eyes made the best
shots.
1T happens, he continued, that
nearly all my men are dark eyed, and
twice this year we have won the hon
ors-in the state shoot at Creedmoor
and the Second brigade's prize. There
is a popular notion that blue or gray
eyed men are the finest marksmen, but
there is no invariable rule. Some of
our men who are first rate shots use
glasses for long distance practice, but
the question of color has nothing to do
with sight. "-Washington Post.

The experience of the farmers of Wasco
county during the last two or three years
ought to. have taught them one lesson
or else give up farming altogether,
namely, they must do more summer fall
lowing. In no other way, under exist
ing circumstances can they be sure of a
crop every year. In no other way can
they have any measure of control over a
dry season. Scratching the stubble in
the fall has fouled the fields with weeds
and wild oats till great deal of the
grain so produced has become unfit for
anything but chicken or hog feed.
Flowing i'll Il rainless spring and the
consequent sowing in the dust has re-
suited in thousands OF acres which it
never paid to harvest. 1t has long been
the boast of Wasco county that she has
some of the best wheat lands in Eastern
Oregon, and she has, but volunteering
and spring sowing have scarcely kept
the farmers heads above water, while
those of Sherman county, with an in
ferior soil but better system of farming
have been forging ahead and becoming
wealthy. The Wasco county farmer,
whose necessities were so pressing that
he thought he could not afford to allow
the half OF his wheat lands to lie fallow
ought to have learned by this time that
he cannot afford to do otherwise He
has got to summer fallow or quit farm
ing and the sooner he begins, the better
for himself

The election laws, the compilation of
which has been in the hands of State
Printer Baker since Thanksgiving, are
now going through the press. These
laws, which are being published in
pamphlet form, will contain what the
constitution has to say regarding cleo
tions, together with the Australian
ballot law enacted by the last legisla-
ture, and also the primary election law
in cities of over 2500 population. These
laws are for distribution throughout the
state and will be sent by the secretary of
state to the different county clerks for
distribution in their counties. In
another week the laws will be ready to
be sent out. The road laws, the insur-
ance laws, and the stock Inspector laws
are also being printed in pamphlet
form.

The first number of the Dufur Dis
patch has come to hand and it fully
confirms the reputation we have had
of Mr.. Brooks, that he knows how to
make good, newsy, readable paper.
The new enterprise may not have very
large field to work in but what it lacks
in extent can easily be made up in en-
thusiasn. The Dufurites have ALWAYS
been proud of their town as they have a
right to be. There are few handsomer
town-sites in Eastern Oregon and few
communities blessed with better class
of citizens. That they will support their
local paper literally goes without saying,
and If this support shall prove sufficient
to meet the modest ambition of the ed
1tor SO that he can remain among them.

every dollar it invests. We cannot saw
anything better than that we wish the
Daspdtch the success it may deserve.

The CHRONICLE gladly publishes the
following clipping from the Ameyican
Wool and Cotton Reporter kindly sent to
us by A. NJ. Kelsay, a prominent and
well-known wool grower of this county.
Besides the testimony it contains to the
growing excellence of Oregon woods
and Eastern Oregon in particular it con-
tains some valuable advice that our wool
growers can copy with profit to them
selves:
We have now received the sample bag
of Oregon wool from Geo. Pope & Co., of
Portland, Ore, which we very much re-
gret had ipt been forwarded in time to
enter the competition for our prizes to
wool growers. 1t would unquestionably
have taken the first prize 1t was
beaut full wool, and the finest that We
have ever seen from Oregon. 1t was in
splendid condition, absolutely free from
earth and vegetable matter, was we'll
bred and OF good staple. If it had been
packed in Australian bales, it would
have readily passed for an average lot of
Australian wool. The manufacturer
who should secure it at 80 cents would
get good trade.
1t is refreshing and encouraging to see
wool come forward in such condition,
ana III our growers cOulQ only become
sufficiently impressed with the necs-
sity of paying more attention to the
repairing and putting up of their woois
for marketi to act in that direction, they
would benefit all concerned and do more
towards enhancing their own interests
than all the triiff laws that were ever
framed.
Oregon wools, owing to their improved
quality and the strength of the staple,
have, during the past few years, become
more and more popular with ~orsted
manufacturers, though they have been
less profitable the past season on account
of the great amount of grease and dirt
which they have retained. The woods oil
Eastern Oregon particularly are well
bred and yield n less profit of tender and
and short woods than some OF the Other
territories. They compete with Mon
tana wools. which, however. are usually
In lighter condition. 1t would be to the
advantage of the growers in Oregon to
retain the good qualities of their woods
and keep dirt out, which adds to the
freight expense. and which buyers mus
deduct from the price which they pay
per pound Tor il.

WHY WE'RE not tho men who attempt.
cd to register illegally in the Second
district, Second ward, not arrested and
locked up2 Had they been colored
men and Republicans how soon the
Democrats, always burning with In
tense desire for honest elections. would
have had them hauled before tho
courts. That it Is bad for white man
as black man to register or attempt
to register, or vote illegally. seems to
be something that our Democratic
friends Will never understand. Crowds
of white men. especially II they arc
Democrats, can go to the polls and vote
illegally and they will even get the
approving nod and smile OF the hon.
est(?) Democrats standing around. but
only let a colored man attempt to reg
lister or vote Illegally, or even make a
mistake by getting to the wrong polls
why pandemonium let loose could not
describe the Indignation of these hon

and swear and gouge, and do oil man
ner of outrageous things to show theii
utter detestation and honor at q col
ored Republican voting Illegally. We
are indeed forced to the conclusion
