Strict attention to business pays
in all lines of work. It is the
steady, constant worker that ac-
complishes most in the end.
Work done in a hurrying, bustling
manner is seldom as we'll done as
it might be. In order to avoid oc-
casional rushes in farm work plans
must be made ahead each season.
It pays to sit down occasionally
and not only count the cost but
estimate the saving made by
systematizing the operations upon
the farm. 1t is in such things that
brain work pays. The mind should
be kept we'll in advance of the
hands if best results would be OBJ
tanned.

Charley Stewards Popularity.

Charley Steward, the republican
nominee for sheriff, is not an un-
tried man in public life. His term
of Justice of the Peace in Rocky
Ford has won him many friends.
The duties of that Office he has
discharged with fidelity to all in
terests concerned. His acts have
ever been without fear or favor,
and with marked impartiality.
All the work has been done in a
business-like manner which shows
Mr.. Steward to have qualifications
for public duties. Furthermore,
his acquaintance with the law,
brought about by his Justice of
the peace services, will enable him
to discharge the duties of sheriff
more faithfully and efficiently.
Mr.. Stewards relations to the
people as business man should
commend him to favor. In busi-
ness matters he has always been
liberal and lenient to all with
whom he dealt, 80 much 80 as to
threaten to embarrass him because
of his not wishing to push credit
ors, but give his customers all pos
sible time. Hundreds will testify
to favors of this kind received at
his hand which have been of the
greatest financial value to them.
In this way he has made hosts Of
warm friends who will stand by
him through thick and thin. "a
friend in need is friend indeed"
In another way does Mr.. Stew
ards candidacy commend him to
the people. We refer to his belief
that he can run the Office more eco
nomically than it has been in the
past In these times, when a dol
lar looks as large as a cheese-hoop
the utmost economy is demanded
in both private and public bust
ness. This Mr.. Steward UNDER
stands and would manage Sheriff's
office accordingly.
Mr.. Stewrd's long residence in
the county and his close identifi-
cation with the people and their
interests in many ways, is going to
gain for him, and deservedly SO,
the votes of large proportion of
Otero's citizens, regardless :. of
party affiliations. And none can
deny but that he is in every wor-
thy of the commendstion that is
bestowed on him f.om 30 many
quarters.

Tons Of Rain.

This vicinity has suffered a rain storm
almost continuously for the past three days.
Of course there have been hours Of sunshine,
but clouds have drifted close to the horizon,
and at intervals there have been showers.
1t is not usual fall rain begins as early as
this, and fine weather is generally expert
enced for month later, and sometimes un-
til the beginning of December. Since last
night, about o'clock, there has been con-
slant downpour, and the hills around are
hid from view by mist This is not agree
able to our people, and we have heard more
complaints about the weather during the
past twenty-four hours than W, have about
the dullness of business, or the scarcity of
money. Farmers are very much discour-
aged because the grain in shock is being
damaged, and the price is so low that any
loss is severely felt. Some imagine that the
climate has undergone radical change
and hereafter the rainy ason may be ex-
pected east of the mountains the same as in
the Willamette valley; but during these
Democratic times the inductive principle
cannot be followed by which to form gen.
eral rules. Tomorrow may be sunny, and
then the average East Oregonian will be
happy and contented.

New1York Politics.

SARATOGA, Oct. 6-The Democratic
state convention reassembled this morn
ing. The report of the committee on
contested seats in every case seated the
antl-C Cleveland contestants except one, on
which the delegation is evenly divided.
The report was adopted $40 to "a The
temporary organization was made per
manent. Chairman Lockwood then
called for the report of the committee on
resolutions, which was read After deal-
ing with state issues the platform says:
"The transfer of the legislative and exc
cutive branches of the federal govern
ment to the Democratic party was none
too soon to correct, even it too late to
avert, the widespread distress caused by
unsound plutocratic Republican legisla--
ton. To repeal the unwise and unjust
laws of Republican origin, the Demo-
cratic party Is pledged and may safely be
trusted TO reconstruct our currency and
tax laws in accordance with popular
needs and sound political principles. Re
cent events have emphasized and con-
frmed the utterances of the Democratic
platforms of 1891 and 1899, and the
Democratic national platform of last
year. in denunciatlon of the Sherman law
providing for the compulsory purchase
and storage of silver bullion; and In reit.-
Grating that condemnation we again de-
mand the speedy and unconditional re-
peal of the laws obnoxious provisions"
The platform further favors liberal pro :
visions for all disabled Union soldiers
widows and dependents; congratulates
Cleveland on the auspicious beginning
of his administration; pledges earnest
support in all efforts to secure the anact-
ment of Democratic measures and the
carrying out of Democratic policies; and
especially approves his patriotic action in
convenng congress In extra session.

Expulsion of Russian jews.

SAN Francisco, Oct. z The Chronicle
will print an interview with Agrlpus
Hcmcharenko, an exiled Russian priest,
who lives in the hills back of Haywards,
this state, and whose cottage has long
been a refuge for exlles escaping to
America from Siberia. The patriot priest
as he Is known to the exlles, has received
word from Russia OF ukase issued by
the czar for the expulsion of all wealthy
Russian Jews in Siberia. The priest says
$4,000 of the 100000 Jews in Siberia are
affected, and that large proportion of
the $4,000 will come to California. The
ukase applies only to prosperous fam
lilies. Many are wealthy and several who
will come to America are miIlionaires.
One Jewish merchant now in Irkutsk is
worth $50, 100000. The priest says most
of the Jews will go into business here
Russian jealousy of the Jews is given as
the cause of the expulsion.

Shot in the Back.

BARCELONA, Oct. 6-Palas, the an
archist who September "a made an at
tempt on the life of Captain General
Martinez Campos by throwing two bombs
at him. was shot at 8 O'Clock this morn
Ing, according to the sen tence OF the
court. martial which tried him. From
first to last he refused the minIstratlons
of tne priests, sneered at their exhorta
tions, laughed at their pictures of the
future state OF the unrepentant, and
marched to the place of execution sing
ing an arnschisl song, as if to drown the
words of the holy fathers of the church
who walked By his side. The execution
took place in an enclosure near the castle
of Monunich. A large body of troops
with small arms formed three siCe, of a
square facing the death wall, against
which Pallas vas placed. Outside the
line of troops crowds OF people gathered,
though not so great as it would have been
but for the fact that the place of execu>
tion was not announced in advance, with
a view 10 prevent an opportunity to Pal-
las ansrchistic friends from plotting
dyno mite outrage in connection with it.
The prelimInaries arranged. the firing
squad were drawn up, with guns loaded.
Pallas was placed against the wall, his
back to the firing squad, sharp order
was given, the guns came to the shoul-
der, and as the commanding officers
sword flashed downward yoiley rang
out, and Pallas fell forward dead. Then
the body was lifted up, the troops
marched away and all was over.

TELEGRAPHIC.
The Cost OF Deportation.

| WASHINGTON, Oct. 6-The secretary oil
the treasury sent to the senate revised
estimate of the cost of deportation OF Chi
nese now in the United States in accord
auce with the provisions of the Geary
law. The statement is supplementary to
that of September 10, and increases the
estimate of the total appropriation Dec-
essary from 100000 to S10,335 600.
A portion of this increase, $1,360,000, is
due to the fact that the steamship COM
panles have increased tine rates TOR the
transportation of Chinese from San Fran
cisco to Hong Kong from $35 to $4l
The remaining portion of the increase is
due to the fact the first estimate did not
include the expenditure in the courts
which the enforcement of the act renders
necessary. The first auditor of the treas
ury gives an opinion that $50 per capito
wi ii be low estimate of the cost under
this head in California. white the amount
will be greatly lncrea seu in other states.
As an example of the maximum of such
costs, the auditor Instances the fees of the
United States marshal IN the deportation
case in that state IN which the fees
reached $3.50 The auditor thinks $40
fair average of such costs. outside of The
expense OF confinement, which is from 30
cents to one dollar per day, and would
therefore increase the amount necessary
indefinitely.
The repeal bill Was taken up thus af-
ternoon. Mcpherson, Democrat, of New
jersey. gave notice that be would ad-
dress the senate upon the bill Monday.

his speech against the bill, begun We'd

SPOKANE, WASH, Oct Specials from
all parts of the Palouse and Big Bend
sections uniformly report serious damage
to crops by continual heavy rains. The
harvest this year as fully month later

this. As rule, though, standing grain
is In better condition than grain in the
swath and stack. Some of the latter Is
sprouting, and much of 1t is damaged.
The danger is intensified by the shortage
of sacks. Some sections report loss of

would probably. no. exceed fifteen or
twenty per cent, but if the rain continues
another week tho damage will be incal-
