THE SENATORIAL SITUATION

Discussing the question OF the
senatorship the Spokane Review,
in recent issue, says that Of
the twenty-five Republicans elected
from the counties Of Eastern
Washington eighteen at least are
favorable to Judge Turner's candidacy.
If the calculation is correct not to ex-
coed seven votes are left for Senator
Allen in that portion Of the state which
ought, in common fairness and as a
matter of legislative courtesy, to virtu-
ally decide the question. The total
vote of the legislature on joint ballot
will be l32, ofwhom 70 are Republicans
and 81 Democrats and Populists. The
Republican majority is 3s and 8s votes
will be required in the Republican
caucus to nominate party candidate,
assuming, of course, that the majority
rule will be adopted. If Judge Turner
can safely rely upon eighteen votes east
Of the mountains his chances are GER
tainly very good, as he will doubtless
receive the solid support of the Repub-
lican members elected in Pierce county,
as well as the votes Of many other
members elected from counties where
the Seattle canal scheme and Senator
Aliens bondage to King county are
not regarded with favor. The report
that he is opposed at home by Con-
gresham Wilson and S. c. Hyde is
entirely without foundation, as appears
from a dispatch stating that the Re-
publicans of the delegation, ten out of
eleven, the eleventh being a Populist,
are unit in his favor and have so
declared.

High on a camel's hump she sat-
Couched on a silky Fezzen mat,
And sailed along the waste Of sand
More like the ocean than the land.
Ayesha!
And many an armed and valiant man
Guarded that glittenng caravan.
His turban, snow white in the sun,
Where ostriches and zebras run.
Ayeshal
A troop of Bedouins with their spears
In the Sahara quick appears;
And, squirting with sirocco speed,
Each Moslem strides a fiery steed.
Ayeshal
A furious charge-a broken line
Above the sands their crescents shine.
Onward the fierce marauders dash
To clang Of hoof and falchion's flash.
Ayeshal
Her cries unheard, her convoy slain,
The Paynims securing DER the plain
Praise Allah for the prize thus sent
A captive TO their chieftain's tent.
Ayeshal
But he, a shiek of stately mien,
Swore by his beard that ne'er was seen
So fair a maid since Mahmoud's day.
And sent her scathless on her way.
Ayeshal
Upon a courser fleet she rodel
Unconscious Of its lovely load,
With precious gifts of silk and gold,
Her slave the Arab chieftain bold.

Nc Leaves Dummy in His Cell and Hides in

SING SIM, July FLA convict named

himself in the shop where he had been work

The Poultry Yard.

There is 4 time in the wear when certain
breeds are capable of giving larger prott'
than at any other period, and this is due to
the CONDITIONS being more favorable. Why
is it that the small breeds of fowls. such as
the Ieghorns, are more seryiceable in sum
mcr than the large, heavy breeds! The
answer may be given that they are more
active and are best adapted to foraging
The heat is quite trying in summer on the
heavy Cochins and BrahmaS, which ar,
completely covered with feathers, and dowr
to the end of their toes, the fluff of itself q
complete covering. They therefore feel the
heat of the summer more than those breed,
that are naked under the wings and on the
body.
To claim that the Leghorns are bettel
than the Brahmas would he to claim toe
much. There is no breed superior to the
Brahmas for eggs, meat and hardness, tax
ing into consideration that they are more
capable of enduring the cold than the Leg
horns, but while winter fowl may be one
that takes but little exercise, and has nc
desire for foraging, it is just the reverse
with those breeds that give good results in
summer. The majority of farmers prefer
active fowls that will go over the whole
range seeking for food as in so doing
they keep themselves in the very best con
di,ion for laying: and farmers will Away.
BE partial to such breeds as the Leglorn-
anil Hamburgs.
The Leghorns rarely become broody
which adapts them to those farms where
chicks are not desired during the summe,
months. and as long us the weather is ia
vorable for foraging they will lay regularly
until they begin TO mott. When Leghorn
males are used with common hens, the pull.
lets produced from the cross are nearly
equal to the pure bred Leghorns as layers
Although the Leghorns will also lay well in
winter, if gwen dry AMI warm quarters, YET
they are in their best condition for giving
the most favorable results during the sum.
mer season. and as hardy, profitable fowls
are not excelled by any of the small breeds
