Hale Has Been Found Guilty.

ELLENsBURGH, WASH, Feb. 7.-[Spec-
iial.1-The jury in the Hale case, after
being out from four till nearly nine last
night, came in with verdict of guilty.
His attorneys Immediately gave notice
of motion for new trial. The verdict
has been almost the sole theme of con-
versation here. The community seemed
to be nearly equally divided between
those who were surprised at the verdict
and those who were not. Witnesses
who were brought from Oregon to estab-
lish an alibi were most surprised. as
they were very hopeful of his acquittal.
Hale seemed less concerned than any
one in the room land when the verdict
was announced there was not the least
change visible in his countenance. The
case of Tom A. Kinzie, another of the
alleged robbers, was called this morn
ing A jury was procured soon after
noon. There is the same. counsel on
both sides as in the Hale case, and the
witnesses called for the prosecution were
the same as at the same stage in Hale's
trial. 1t is not believed this case will
occupy more than three days, as only
about ten witnesses will appear.
Heppner Gazette. Word was brought
in town Yesterday morning that T. L.
Dorman's wife, who resides over in
Smile country. had died Saturday from
pneumonia. Mrs. Dorman's illness was
of short duration. and when the physi-
elan, DIR. Fox, was called, it was too
late to do anything for her relief. Mr..
and Mrs. Dorman had two daughters
who were attending school at Heppner
this winter, who did not know of their
mothers serious illness until she was
dead. The interment occurred yester-
day at the Hardman cemetery.

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

RALEIGH, n. O., June %.
A great deal of unnecessary alarm
is being felt by our cotton growers be-
cause of an unusual and temporary ir-
luption of the black cotton aphide,
Aphis gossypii. This insect is present
at all times in cotton fields, but it is
generally kept in check by it's natural
enemies, the lady bugs. A box of in
tested cotton leaves recently received
at the Station show more lady bugs
than aphides. Hence<the aphides will
be cleared off in a very short time. In
the meantime where the aphides are
abundant farmers should by extra fer
tilizer stimulate the plants to outgrow
the aphides. The above refers to the
true black aphide only. There is an
other pest called red spider, Tetrany-
chus telarias, which causes so-called
trust" of the cotton plant. This is a
verylsmall, reddish mite which lives
beneath a web on the underside of the
leaf. The web protects it from the lady
bug and all otherinsects. Hence against
this pest the cotton farmer must use
chemical insecticides. The best r the
kerosene emulsion and a mixture of to,
bacco decoction, sulphur and soft soap.
This must be applied to the under side
of the leaves with a sprayer, such as
the Garfield Knapsack.
Newspapers in the cotton belt are re
quested to copy this notice.

failure to have an A. and M. College
previous to our institution, he would
doubtless have put them forth during
the time of our agitation, when public
curiosity was rife and hundreds were
inquiring. I am satisfied Colonel Polk
was never connected with any such
failures, if there had been any, be-.
cause I have had many conversations
with him about A. and M. Colleges,
and he never mentioned such a thing,
and nobody ever accused him Of it.
I have heard him speak often of his
fight when he was Commissioner of
Agriculture, and he told me what his
fight was about, but he never pretended
that it was for an A. and M College.
He was lever slow to speak to me of
the part he took In Jul fight, then why
would be have kept the others con-
cealed9 mot only write this correction
bin the interest of the truth of history,
but because / wish to rescue Colonel
Folks name from any imputation of
being connected with an agitation
which if it even existed, was so pitiably
weak that there is no record of it, and
failed to impress a single disinterested
witness, All must admit that he was
a boss agitator, and if he had even de-
manded an A. and M. College before
the Watauga Club did the whole State
would have heard of it. Your praise
worthy p~artiality for Colonel Polk has
betrayed you Internationally into do
ing him very great injustice and max
ing it appear that he made little efforts
and done little things in a little corner.

AMONG THE ALLIANCES.

A Georgia paper says the Alliance
can't be revived in that State. But this
isn't the first time Georgia editor told
things that will not hold water.
Ambulance encampment will be held
at or near Hickory in August. Promi
nent speakers will be present and ad-
dress the crowd, which, no doubt, will
be a large one.
Judging from the cheerful tone of
the Texas papers the Alliance is on a
greater boom there than it has expert
enced in years. of years"is a good
time to build up the organization every

editor Of the Sun" The San mar re-
plies that he has lived in Virginia II
years, married a Virginia lady and has
some right to say a word or two for
Virginia. The hide bound press won't
allow an Allianceman to take a Whit
of air after awhile. But the editor of
the Sun can take care of himself.

A SENSATION.

"Uncle Toms Cabin" has certainly
"broke loose!' The copyright on this
most famous of American novels, by
Mrs. Stowe has recently expired,
which frees it's publication from the
monopoly Of the high priced publishers,
and though in anticipation of this fact
they have within a few months greatly
reduced it's price, now that it is really
''upcbained' the consequences are
something surpri ing. John B. Alden,
Publisher, of New York, issues several
editions, selling them only direct mot
through agents or book Sellers one in
good type, paper covers, for 5 cents,

A TO GIRLS.

Everybody naturally wants to go to
Chicago to see the Worlds Fair, and
the desire is commendable, but it is
fraught with dangers, especially to
young girls. A kind friend sends us a
clipping to the effect that the keepers
of immoral resorts in the city are max
ing a systematic campaign to lure girls
to Chicago for immoral purposes.
Agents are said to be sent throughout
the country to engage girls to go to
Chicago under various pretexts. Some
are hired for hotel use and some are
told that they can obtain light employ
ment at large wages during the Worlds
Fair. Some are being hired for restau-
rants which do not exist. We trust
those reading this article will give this
matter their particular attention. Only
a few days ago, four or five young girls
were sent back home by a conductor
on a train on which they were travel
ing to Chicago. The Oldest was only
II, the youngest Is. They were to get
$40 a week and board, have light work,
and were going to a street in Chicago
which does not exist.
Our advice to girls is to make no en-
gagements for Chicago unless with par
ties you actually know. You cannot
imagine the miserable devices of the
wicked.-Erchange.

B.-"Hello Mr.. Editor"
, R.-"HelloI Mr.. Bilkins. Hope you
are well this morning. Any news2'
B.-"Well. nothin' ter amount ter
anything. Betsy was readin' this morn
in where the President said we must
have IN extra session of Congress. I
reckon that is news ter most ov the
people, but Betsy is afraid it haint guide
news. She lows it won't do ter shut
the stable door after the horse has bin
stolen, but I reckon it is we'll enough
to save the troughif the horse is gone. -
R.-"Yes, weneed more confidence"
and less money, hence Congress will
meet and restore confidence" 1t will
be just like a cat fight. You will hear
a big noise, see some fur flying in the
air, but you can't say that you slept
any better than you did nights when
there was no cat fight going on The
Sherman law will be repealed and the
West will be worse off than ever. The
tariff will be reduced on wool hats,
maybe, as most of the hats have no
wool in them. Then Congress will
issue an address and tell the people
they are raising too much, or else that
they don't work enough"
sB.-"Betsy says there is too much
difference in your statements. Con-
gress may tell us to work a little less
and raise a little less. The other old
gag has bin worn out. The plan for
some time will be for us to ''plowaless
and raise less" In other words we can
plant a crop this year and wait until
next year to cultivate it. That is the
only way to stop overprodUction. If
Capt Octave Coke would hurry along
with his State banks we wouldn't need
ter raise anything fur several years.
Betsy says Capt. Coke is the greatest
labor savin' machine that was ever in
vented. Has any more folks bin gettin'
relief?"
R-'A few have been relieved. Maj.
Bill Robbins refuses to take the medi-
cine. He was offered the position of
Consul to Dundee, Scotland, but re
fused it, saying he was no baby and
couldn't be relieved with a dose or two
of paregoric. The salary is 81, 600 per
year. The Major says he can't afford
to work for that. Strange talk, for
there are thousands of men with as
much brains working in North Caro-.
lima for less than one fourth or ever
one eighth of that sum every year. But
times have changed. A 500 man only
a few years ago now thinks he ought
to bring $1,000 or Sc, 900. Frank
Powell, of Tarboro, Geo. Newell, OF
Henderson, and Walter Bonitz, OF
Wilmington, have each taken a small
dose of relief. Their salaries range
from $500 to 81, 400 per year. They
don't hold themselves at big figures
like Major Bill Robbins"
BETSY says she has herd some
thin about that $50 and says she is
goin' ter write ter the Major an ask
him how he is worth SO much more
now when the value of everything else
has deprecated in the past few years
She lows that there is something
wrong when a man can increase in
value from $40 to S 5000. Good bye
