Raise Heavy Fowls.

The recent shipments Of live poultry
In carload lots from Eugene and Salem
has demonstrated one fact, and that
Is, the business is success, and can,
and will be carried on In the future as
one Of our prominent industries.
There is one fundamental principle
that the buyers will have to look to
closely, and that is, in encouraging
the poultry producers Of this section
TO raise larger fowls, they must, TO
induce them to do so, pay the actual
difference between large fowl and a
small one. For instance, say chicken
weighing five pounds is what tho
Frisco market demands. The price
OF this five pound fowl should be
about double that of the one weighing
~ pounds. The difference of fifty or
seventy-five cents per dozen to the
difference in the two weights will not
encourage the poultry raisers to raise
large fowls. II a person brings to the
car a dozen chickens weighing q
pounds each, pay for the p pound
fowl. II another brings to the car a
dozen weighing twice this amount,
and are at the top of the market de-
mand, pay to the party twice that Of
the other. This system of buying will
bring the large poultry to the eur; no
other will. 1t strikes us the proper
system TO adopt is to buy by the
pound. Then the poultry raisers will
know they are getting value received
in all sales, whether the fowls be
large or small. A pound price can be
placed on the different grades of
fowls, good, poor, old, young, etc.
With this system there is no deception,
and the poultry people will raise the
heavy weight fowls.-Oregon Poultry

WHY IT CIRCUlATES
Phenomenal Demand for a
Weekly Newspaper.
1T ADVOCATES POPULAR MEASURES
Characteristic Letters From All
Kinds Of People.

The phenomenal circulation of the
WEEKLY CAPITAL JOURNAL in all the
postotfices of Western Oregon causes
great deal of comment, and needs
some explanation. Orders keep pour

are struck off the list as soon as sub
scription expires the additions sur
pass the expiratlons,
1T IS THE CHEAPEST
Weekly in the state. One year $l.00,
six months 90 cents, three months 25
cents. At this low price all can afford
to take an Oregon Weekly, and these
hard times they naturally take the
cheapest. 1t is too cheap to do with
out IL, and conducted on the cash in
advance basis, they know they Will
not have a bill run on them.
THE PEOPLE WANT IT.
The people will not pay cash in adj
vance for paper unless they want IL
and appreciate IL. THE WEEKLY Is
as popular as THE ONE CENT DAILY
which is conceded TO be the most pop
ular daily in Western Oregon. A man

The Washington correspondent, who, in
another column, comes to the defense of
Senator Morrill, against some ungracious
and largely untrue remarks of the Middle
bury Register. will allow us to say that he
gives too much Importance to what has
probably struck most Vermonters who
have paid any attention to it. as a very
petty little exhibition of jealousy or some
thing worse. The universal respect and
esteem in which Mr. Morrill, is held at
Washington does not surpass the respect
and esteem in which he is held at home.
lie is by no means prophet without
honor in his own country. The man can
not be named who is to-day held in higher
honor and more affectionate regard by the
people of vermont. That the Middlebury
Register should be an exception to the
general sentiment is perhaps. not alto
gcther surprising. The fact is not forgot
ten by many Vermonters that in 1878,
when Mr.. Morril: received his third cleo
ton to the United States Senate by a vote
of $50 republicans to 80 for his democratic
opponent, Joseph Battell of Middlebury,
then member of the Legislature, misrep-
resented the mass of his constituents and
acquired some temporary notoriety for
himself by Withholding his vote from Mr..
Morrill, and casting it for republican,
who was not candidate and was dis
gusted that any man should have voted
for him. Mr.. Battel is understood to be
tho owner of one half or moro of the Mid
dlebury Register, and the cranky attitude
of that paper towards Senator Morrill, is
probably quite satisfactory TO Mr.. Battoll.

The view Of the Monroe Doctrine thus
forcibly expressed, ~ substantially that
held by many of the ablost statesmen in

There Is further misapplcation or
misnterpretation of the Monroe Doctrine,
in tho enuncaton of 1t put forth by
Secretary Olney and Mr. Cleveland, to
which we have not seen attention distinct
y called, but which Is certainly unwtse
and in some respects dangerous.
Mr.. olncy argues that wo have n vital
concern in this Venezuelan boundary
question, because, 1st England may, if VIC
permit it to be decided in her favor, gain
by 1t a base for military operations against
the United States: and I'd because tho ex-
tension Of the monarchial government OF
England over any territory not now in her
undisputcd possession on the American
Continent, may imperil our republican
form of government
Yet Mr.. Cleveland says that "any nd
zuela may deem for her advantage and
may enter into of her own free will cannot
be objected to By the United States
That, then, is the same as saying that II
Venezuela should see fit to allow the cs.
Enlistment of military base hostile tc

perlllng of our system OF government by

government cannot object! Is this thc
Monroe doctrine? We do not so understand
it. II the people of Mexico had conscntc,

Macmillan, would Sheridan and his arm,
have been ordered back from the Mexican
border? Not much. Mr.. Cleveland and hi
secretary are wrong both in their unwis,

discreet admission that it can be nullifet

republic that may for the time STRIKE

The lightning rod man Is being re-
placed by the steel range agent 1t would
be an interesting thing to collect the
ranges which these men have sold around
this state.
The farmer is approached on the score
OF, economy and every other argument
possible. Preposterous claims and offers
are made, and the people soon give a note
for sixty nine dollars and the agent leaves
the range and that Is the last they see OF
him.
Can anything be done to protect us
from these men? They are all around us
and still people will be dcluded by them.
Ono agent told Mr.. c. S. Blair of Essex
that II he didn't like 1t that he would
call and take away the stove, and on ap'
pointing day and hour to come, he
never put In an appearance.
The sum which our people in the State
are paying out for these useless ranges
Is undoubtedly in the thousands. Several
parties including a dealer in stoves In
IIinesburgh already are willing to sell
those ranges for n very small sum- a

BLAINE MOURNsD HIS BOYS.
Murat Halstcnd Describes His Last Meet
ing with the Great Statesman.
fL,rox, Nfof.t,,r... %Soro,,oa,

(From McClures Magazine)
When Mr.. Blaine was for the last time
in New York, on his way to Washington,
stopping, as was his habit, at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, he asked me to walk with
him to his room. fronting on Twenty
third street. on the parlor floor. and he
slowly. as II it were a task. unlocked the
door. There was sparkle of autumnal
crispness In tho air, and he had fire.
that glittered and threw shadow about
fitfully. There was not much to say. 1t
was plain at last that Mr.. Blaine was
fading, that he had within a few weeks
failed fast. His great, bright eyes were
greater than ever, but not so bright. His
face was awfully white; not that brainy
pallor that was amliar-something else.
He seated himself In the light of the fire,
on an easy chair. There was knock at
his door, and a servant handed him a
card, and he said, No" and we were
alone. l could not think of word OF
consolation. and In moment he appeared
TO have forgotten me, and he stared In n
fixed, rapt dream at the Pickering flame
in the CRATE 1t occurred to me to get up
and go away quietly, as conversation was
impossible, for there was too much to
say. 1t came TO me that l ought not to
leave him alone. Something In him re-
minded me of the mystical phrases OF the
transcendent paragraph of his Grafton on
Garfield, picturng the death of the second
martyred president, by the ocean. while
far-off white ships touched the sea and
sky, and the fevered face of the dying man
felt "the breath of the eternal morning"
Some weeks earlier Mr.. Blaine and
had had deep talk about men and
things, and he was very kind, and his
boundless generosity of nature never re-
vealed itself with greater or sadder
charm. He now remembered that con-
versation. as a word disclosed, and said;
II could have endured all things II my
boy had not died" The door opened and
his secretary walked in. and / took Mr.
Blaine's hand for the last time, saying
ood-night." and he said. with look
that meant farewell, "Good-by"
