c, B, MOORES
Recommended by the Oregon
Delegation
And Will Probably Get What Geer
Declined

The surprise in Salem Occasioned
by the report of Mr.. Geer's appoint
ment. is only equalled this afternoon
by the statement that the Oregon
delegation has telegraphed to WASH
ington its recommendation Of Hon.
G. b. MOores, of Salem, for the place
of register of the Oregon City land
office. The real real reason why Mr..
Geer was appointed is said to be the
fact that Senator Corbett did
not oppose him, and it is presumed
that Mr.. Moores' recommendation fol-
lows for the same reason. 1t is boldly
stated by Corbett's friends that no
appointment goes with Mckinley that
is offensive to Senator Corbett. The
fact that Geer alone has been ap-
pointed would sustain this theory.
This would leave the Oregon "dele-
CATION" in a severe predicament OF
having all their work kicked oyer by
an appointed senator who Is only
"favorably reported to the senate"
but not yet sworn in.

will not suon be forgotten. They
gathered near an inviting bonfire

A STATE PRISONER ESCAPES
Herman Helm Left the Ditch Gang
Today,

Supt. Gilbert, of the Oregon peni-
tentiary, informs THE JOURNAL that
one Herman Helm, prisoner from
Multnomah county, this forenoon
deserted his work and escaped.
He was last seen about 10
O'Clock and failed to come IN at noon.
He is evidently in hiding near the
pen, and ten employees are searching
for him. He is unquestionably watt
ing for night to complete his escape,
as it would hardly have been possible
for him to get far from his work by
this time.
Helm is about 2S yea of age, is
serving a two years sentence for lar
ceny, and had only two months more
time to put in as "trusty." He
weighs 17S pounds, is feet and 7
inches tall, heavy built, and has
brown hair and eyes.

The most picturesque of all the
queens Dremiers was Disraeli, after
ward Lord BeaconsfieId. After five at
tempts to secure election to parliament,
he was at last successful. in 1887. He
was 80 at the time, and his maiden
speech, made in a high-fiown style and
with eXtravagant gestures. created so
much merriment that he was forced to
stop. but before taking his seat he
uttered the prophecy: Z shall sit down
now. but the time will come when you
will hear me-
For the next twelve years he made

was not until 1S49 that his oratorical
ability began to attract attention. He
had made few speeches until then, but
when he felt the ground beneath him
secure he flashed out like a meteor.

leader of the opposition DiSraeli dis
played talents as debater and a
spirit of persistency- under defeat which
won him the admiration of the country.

minister for the second time, holding
office. however, but a year.
On many subjects the queen and
Lord Russell did not agree, but the
wisdom of the man overcame the
power of the potentate.
Lord Russell, in 1852 In his early

secretary of Ireland, in 1880. he sig
nalized his administration by demand
ing a system of national education in
that distressed country.
Lord Derby was one of the first to
discover the genius of Disraeli. and
his loyalty to that distinguished states
man was the cause of his resigning
the premiership ten months after his
appointment in February of 1852.
In forming his cabinet Lord Derby
selected Disraeli as chancellor of the
exchequer, and a hostile vote of the
house of commons condemning the
budget of the chancellor resulted n
lord Derbys retirement. In 1858 he
was again chosen premier, but his ad
ministration was shortlived. His
government brought forward a meas

Queen Victoria has had ten prime
ministers in her reign of sixty years,
and in tracing up the causes of the
wide expansion Of British power since
1887, it at once becomes apparent that
to these Ievel-headed statesmen is
largely due the glory which is being
showered upon the old lady who has
outlived ali but three of them-Mr.
Gladstone, Lord Rosebury and the
Marquis of Salisbury.
When the girl queen assembled the

years, and he continued to hold the

woman mentioned, who kept book in
which she set down both profit and
loss, and came out ahead just $40 the
initial year of her experiment. All the
while she gave but half hour a day
to her live stock and paid a boy 80
cents a week to keep her sheep shed
clean and to cut UP fodder. The ma
nure from her shed she used as fer
tilizer, and in four years she counted
a flock of exactly 90 ewes, showing her
ear clip, and yielding her a profit in
wool and mutton of $3.50 in clear in
come.
Because her pasture was not large
enough. and because she, taught school
for a living, and so had no great
amount of time to give. to her flock
she did not let her number of ewes in
crease beyond this limit, but some
years she drew as much as $500 from
her sheep. and she declared that in
spite of their stupid ways and their
predisposition to dirt and disease, her
sheep both amused and interested her
and where of all ventures she made at
swelling her income the most profit
able, the least trouble and the special
sort of live stock most likely to flourish

at hand. But the meadow land must

( the first precaution for an amateur

great value TO sheep pasture, and all
] these simple requirements are found
on many farms stretching from Florida
to the Canadian border.
LAYING OUT TWENTY FIVE DOL
LARS
If she has decided TO try the sheep
venture, as did a southern woman on
the same line, let any one of the pro-
PROGRESSES of an abandoned New Eng
land farm or a Nirginian plantation, or
an old Pennsylvania homestead. buy
her live stock from some reputable
farmer or drover and pay not more
than 50 apiece for her ewes. That is
what the southern woman did, taking
care that her purchases were healthy
and about three or four years old. AS
to the family history Of the live stock
purchased. a proud descent cannot be
bought at So a head. Noble Cotswolds,
LeicesteTs and merinOs are costly ami
mails when they enjoy a pedigree, and
they moreover require infinite labor
and knowledge of sheep lore to care
properly for them. 1t is always wisest
TO try and buy what are called Canada
sheep, or healthy grade southdowns,
where the object is to raise them both
for mutton and wool. Now, the time
of the year to buy sheep is in August
or early September. and when a sturdy
young ram of four or five years of age
is turned on the farm pasture with
seven or eight ewes of three or four
years of age the most eXtrayagant
sheep raiser can almost confidently
anticipate that the first month of the
new year will find her the possessor of
a flock Just doubled in size.
FEEDING HER SHEEP.
Having laid out her S25 and turned
her new possessions into a pasture
where the fences are up and service
able, the next important point is to
provide a shelter for the flock against
winter weather. A shed open on one
side is really all the sheep ever need,
so that any old clubhouse viii answer
the purpose, it's floor left of beaten
earth, and the roof and walls sufficient
ly strong TO protect the woody inhabi-
tants against snow and rain, The in
side of such barn ought to be white
washed and once a week at least. in
winter the floor should be scraped
clean with a hoe. Around the barn half
an acre of land may be enclosed with
a fence to serve as a lamb creep, as
the fold for mother ewes is called, but
beyond this utilization and adaptation
of old buildings about a farm, no spe-
cial outlay need be made in the sleeps
behalf.
If a small flock of sturdy animals are
purchased in September and turned out
to grass at once they will feed them
