The River Falls Normal School, in a

been peculiarly helpful in the tram

Major Fulton headed the list with

Messrs. Mosher, Williams and
Fulton, trustees for the asylum,
met last week and considered
various plans submitted for a
county poor house, to be built up
on the asylum grounds as per
resolution of the last county
board. They adopted the plans
of Chas. Fitzgerald of Milwaukee,
and expect to begin operations IN
the spring. The excavating will
be done mainly by the asylum
patients, and most of the rock
will be secured by their help,
right on the ground. The trustees
expect to get substantial and
very suitable house for the $4,000
which was appropriated by the
board. This, however, will not
afford much ornateness. Every
thing will be as plain as a
Quaker's hat. The trustees have
offered the old farm and buildings
for sale at $4,000. A good chance
for some practical farmer.

Food Value Of Honey and Why it Should
be Eaten.
BY DR.. G. G. MILLER.

When cane sugar is taken into tn
until first changed by digestion into
grape sugar. Only too often the
overtaxed stomach fails to properly
perform this digestion, then comes
sour stomach and various dyspeptic
phases. Prof. A. j. Cook says: 'If
cane sugar is absorbed without
change, it will be removed by the
kidneys, and may result i'll their
breakdown; and physicians may be
correct in asserting that the large
consumption Of cane sugar by the 10
century man is harmful to the great
eliminators-th kidneys-and SO a
menace to health and long life.
Now, in the wonderful laboratory
of the hive there is found sweet that
needs no further digestion, having
been prepared fully by those wonder
full chemists, the bees, for prompt as
simiIation without taxing stomach or
kidneys. AS Prof. Cook says: '"There
can be no doubt but that III eating
honey our digestive machinery is
saved work that it would have to
perform if we ate cane sugar; and in
case it is overworked and feeble, this
may be just the respite that will save
from a breakdown.

Make Astoria a common point, and not
only will this SOO,OOO be restored to the
value OF northwestern wheat within "A

In the hands Of the grower will advance
fr0n to ~ cents in addition. Who
knows this fact better than the oregonl-
an? and yet that paper will not give It's
influence to the accomplishment Of that
object.
What is the matter with the Oregonl-
an? But short time ago it was fore
most among the papers Of the north
west in advocating the Astoria common
point proposition. What has brought
about this late surprising change in its
policy? Has that paper ceased to be IN
terested in the development and prosper
ity Of oregon and all the great Inland
Empire, and does it now wish to be set
down as the organ and ally Of combin-
alton which seeks to perpetuate its grlr
upon the substance Of the people Of these
sections? The Oregonian must answer
these questions 1t cannot escape from
them. It Is not the Astorian that says
this. 1t is the rising tide Of public sentl
ment whose voice can be heard all ovel
Eastern Oregon and Washington In
all sincerity. the Astorian wants to see
the oregonian clear itself Of the charges
which are beginning to be circulated

A FEW FACTS FOR THE CONSIDER.
ALTON OF THE oREGoNLAN.

The freight rate on salmon from AS
toria to New York is IS cents per 100
wounds, or sii per ton, all rail,
That Is to say; The Northern or south.
srn Pacific railway will carry freish,
from Astoria to New York, $500 miles.
at abou, three mills per ton per mile.
This haul involves climb over three
ranges Of mountains. to say nothing OF
the innumerablo foothills adjacn, to
these mountains.
Freight from Pendletou to Portland on
wheat 81 miles, down the water descend
ing grade OF the o, R, & n. line is $50
per ton, or Is mills per mile.
On the road from Pendleton to Port
land one ordinary locomotive can easily
null 500 tons OF wheat. or more than
double the weight any locomotive in ex-
istence can haul over the high mountain
ranges between Astoria and New York
Why should the farmers Of the north
west be forced to pay eve times as much
freight per mile in getting their wheat
to market as the salmon packers pay
per mile on the same road to set their
product to market?
II the transportation companies should
reduce their freight rate from the east
ern part Of Oregon down to one-half
wha, they now charge they would sim
receive more than double the freight rate
oharSed from the Mississippi river 10
New York
Would not this reduction to Eastern
Oregon farmers still leave suhicient
money in the hands OF the o. R. & y.
Company to pay large dividends on the
value OF Its road. and would not such re-
ductlOn enable the farmers Of the whole
Of the Oregon territory to receive a much
larger return from the whea, they now
raise'
{. Why, then. does the oregonian oppose
the reduction in these railway rates for
which Astoria contends' Is the oregonl-
an more interested in seeing stockholders
Of the o. R. & n. Company accumulate
fortunes than it is to promote the well
fare OF the toiling producer Of the Inland
Empire7
