BETTER RACING NEVER seen


IN starting them. Nine horses faced
the starter and they were punched when
the flag fell. II was hot race between
Black Prince and Funny, the former
winning by short heat.
SUMMARY
Black Prince blk. q. Captain Jinks-- l

Sorrel Frank, Sleepy Dick, Viola,

The events for tomorrow are three
in number; two tfots and one run, con-
slsting Of the following horses. This
meeting deserves the support Of the race
loving public, and 1t Is hard thing to
understand, why everyone within
reach does not attend and swell the
already good attendance to immense
ones. The boat leaves Salem each day
returning after the last race, which
gives the attendants the chance Of see
ing good races, and reaching home the
same night.

\ WYOMING PRECEDENT.

The st. Pau Giohe. i'm referring edi
torially to the senatorial situation II
Wyoming which. by the way. has q
democratic governor lays down a pret
ty clear case as To the power of the gov.
ernor to appoint. The conditions are
liable to be entirely similar in Montana
as the legislature adiourns two days be
fore Senator Sanders term expires. The
Globe says:
The legislature O. Wyoming adjourned
without date and without e~lecting 8
senator to succeed Senator Warren. The
question is raised that Governor Osborne
> cannot appoint d senator. The federal
constitution provides that III vacancies
happen by resignation or otherwise dur
ing the recess of the legislature of any
stale. the executive thereof may make
temporary appointments until the next
meeting of the legislature. which shall
then till such vacancies"
The only precedent is that of Della
ware IN 1883. Senator Read resigned in
December. Tie legislature which met
IN january adjourned without electinr
ms. successor. The governor appointed
a senator after the adjournment. The
senate ned NAT the legislature had
held a session between the happening Of
the vacancy md had failed to elect. and
the appointte was. therefore. not entitled
to a seat.
me cases are not ION all tours" with
each other There is no vacancy in the
office Of senator from Wyoming. and
will not b" until March 1. \ vacancy
can happen" when the Office is filled.
II cant happen by anticipation. In the
Delaware case the vacancy actually ex-
listed at the time of the meeting of the
legislature. Here a senator is in his
seat. and will hold it until his term ex-
pires. Then there will be a vacancy in
TACT. The Delaware case met precisely
n contingency for which provision
was made. If the next Wyoming legis-
lature should fail 10 elect a senator; the
cases would be pat. There is no cayse
for worry. Gov. Osborne will appoint d
senator when the vacancy happens"
that is. when there is no one with au-
fhority to sit; and the appointed senate
will old his seat until after the scssi

belief in the spirit world. ont of defer
ence to the strong feeling OF his wife and
family on the subject. but he entertained
on various occasions during his life pro
tessloial spirit mediums from London,
and during his later years he expressed
an eager desire to establish s%piritualistic
communication with his dead son. Lionel.
These interesting facts have been
known only by his family and immediate
circle OF friends. for the poet rarely al
lud,ed 10 his belief. Like Victor Hugo,
he even refrained from using poetry
which he thought had been dictated b.
the spirits. In this way the world has
no doubt lost many a noble line, for
Lord Tennyson became a convert to
sliritualism when quite "a young man.
1t will be interesting to see what light
the present Lord Tennyson will throw
on this subject in the biography he is
preparing. 1t is quite possible. however.
that the public will be disappointed. for,

Look out for them.

We have been Informed that sew
eral sharpers are circulating a.
mong the farmers of this county
and bunkoing them on the old
scheme of furnishing groceries at
what the schemers call very low
prices.
The scheme Of these sharpers is
to offer some article of common
use, say sugar or coffee, at a pri, .
say half cent pr. ID. lower than
the same can be sold by the local
grocer.
AT the same time the sharper,
infoms the farmer that the article
so offered is rapidly declining in
price and he, with show of much
honesty, advises his customer to
buy the smallest possible quantity.
The goods are offered in series.
that is the order consists of sugars,
cotfees, teas, spices etc.
After the farmer has given his
order for u small quantity of sugar,
say 25 lbs. also 10 lbs. of coffee, I'll o
dealer then offers tea, and the
farmers informed that but one
grade is carried, which is of very
fine quality fully worth $1.25 Er. lib.
at retail, but that 1t it sold in five
pound packages, at one dollor pr.
Id.
The order being completed the
sharper gets into his buggy and
seeks other victims.
An investigation proves that the
farmer has given his order lfor 25
lb. of sugar on which he saves one
half ct. pr. pound, say 13 cents, and
ten pounds of coffee on which he
saves 8 cents, and five lbs. of about
40 cent tea at $1.00 pr. lb. on which
he loses $500 a net loss $2.s2.
The moral is, If the farmers
would escape the wiles Of sharpers
and save their cash is to buy their
family supplies from some local
dealer.
Always be suspicious Of strang-
ers who visit you with PROPOSE
tion to give you goods at ruinous-
ly low price. No one whom you
see for the first time, and may
never see agsin is entitled to your
confidence.
Farmers! stick to your local
dealer and set the dogs on all snide
pedlers Of all sorts.
