Murderer's Words in a Machine.

Governor Hastings heard the words
of Peter Wassil, the convicted murder
er, who is sentenced to be hanged at
Wilkesbarre to-day. On Monday the
condemned man talked into an Edison
phonograph, and the cylinder was
taken to Harrisburg SO that the Gov
ernor might listen to the statement.
Wassil accuses his brother-in-law OF
the crime of which he was convicted.
He was much amused while talking
into the word-producing instrument
and smiled and snickered at the sound
of his own voice. He called it a
"queer machine" and was led away
by keepers in happy mood.

The experience of this year
should teach useful LESSONS to the
farmers of this valley. There has
been developed here an excellent
demand for feed. This demand
will be permanent. The feeding
of stock in the great northwest
must grow as a business. The
demands for meat products are in
creasing and the demand for feed
will surely advance too. The
shipment of corn is a pointer
worthy of consideration. 1t. is
fully equal to wheat in value for
feeding and will be used as long
as present conditions prevail in
this country. All of the wheat
lands in the Lewiston valley, the
rim rock lands and vast areas of
of the reservation, are good corn
lands. The freight charges on
corn shipped from Nebraska are so
high that the farmer here could
grow corn for the price of freight
alone. And the fodder here would
he valuable for cattle. This eli
mate is SO mild that stock from all
the surrounding ranges are
brought here to be fed. The food
requirements are fifty per cent less
for winter in this valley than in
the cold belts This assures value
tor all the feed that can be grown
here. The wheat crop is now
largely devoted to feeding bee.
cattle. Headed wheat fed in the
straw is a favorite ration for fatten
ing stock. Even in the most un-
favorable season ever known in
this valley the farmers could have
gathered enormous quantities of
this class of feed Fall sown
wheat in this valley will produce
three tons of hay to the acre which
is worth annually twenty dollsrs
an acre. When alfalfa can be
grown this crop value will be
doubled. Even for the growth of
feed our valley lands aud the
plateaus Immediately surrounding
are very valuable.

A doy-in-the. manper

A dog lin the manger policy in
any business is far reaching in its
bad effects, This principle is
manifest by large class of mine
owners i'll every new mineral dis.
trict. The first locators Of mines
are usually liberal men but class
ofspeculators too often get a hold
in new camps in the early stage OF
their development, and they hold
the claims to the exclusion of en-
terprising men. The stubborn
holders of undeveloped claims are
generally men who have secured
their interests by barter. I he
original discoveries could not be
too highly rewarded for their en-
ergy aud the hardships they have
endured. But it is not the pros
pector that retards the growth and
development of the new mining
camps: ii is what is called the
"rutabgaa miners" They are
spectators with one vain hope OF
great fortune and they often
cling to that to their own ruin and
the ruin of the camp

breadstuffs. There is no excuse
for this condition except & III the
lack of business thrift on the part
of the people Of Lewiston valley.
There is no good reason why every
one Of these important items of
TODD supply Should not be of purely
home production. Our soil and
climate are suited to the produc-
ton and manufacture of all these
commodities They can be pro-
duced in marketable form here at
home cheaper than any other place
in the country, but some paradoxi-
cal policy compeis their purchase
and shipment and greatly increased
cost for home consumption. If a
policy of home supply could be in
stituted the Lewiston valley would
become Immediately the most pros
porous land of homes in the United
States. We have a wi der range OF
products than any other section
and at the same time utilize less
of home made merchandise than
any other part of the country.
