SCIENTIFIC CONSCIENCE.
An II teresting Tale of Two Geolo-
Eists and an Exceedingly
Beautiful Fossil.

Happening to know two men who were
deeply interested in geology and who did not
know each other Detroit man brought the
two scientists together recently at the house
OF one of them and then left them to enjoy
the occasion. A day or two later he met the
host in the case and heard this strange story
from him:
"Well, Mr.. Cooper, that was fine man You
brought out TO see me the other nght-a fine
man. Why, he's as crazy about geology as
am, il not trihe crazier. We sat up to-

specimens and talking about them, and I'm
going down to see his cases. He tells me he
has almost bankrupted, himself INDUCING

In selling honey much depends on ap-

neat package is more likely to meet
with ready sale than IL put up in any
sort of style without any label. Es-
pecially does the matter of looks make
difference in the sale of comb honey.

We accidentally come across the
statement that one agricultural organ

bership of 100000 people. When the
difficulty of getting American farmers
together is taken into consideration, the
magnitude OF the work accomplished by
the Germans in thus combining seems
marvellous. No class of men on earth

THE RE PUBLICAN TICKET.
Inswer.

The Marion conuty Republican
ticket was the result OF a combination
Of elements. There is some ground
for BELIEVING that combination was
formed for nominating VAIN for
sheriff and Hall for clerk. This l.
but natural, as strong candidates
contesting for the most lucrative
offices are always liable to pool inter-
ests. This is no reflection upon either
of the gentlemen named.
J. II. Roland for recorder we ale
also somewhat acquainted with, and
consider him an excellent young man
for the place. Geo. W. Jones, county
superintendent of schools, is a young
man who stands well and was wisely
renominated. The other men on the
county ticket we are not acquainted
with. The legislative ticket has not
much to commend it, uEless it Is that
it was not all slated as usual.
Both n. II. Looney and Lou Adams
for senators, are better nominees than
the average Republican nominations.
The legislative ticket is very impor-
tant. There is always a great deal Of
money spent TO elect the members Of
the legislature, as there is an United
States senator to elect.
Prof. Cummings, Of Aumsville. is
an able speaker. He is a Methodist,
a school teacher, was an ardent sup
porter Of Dolph in 1895, is staunch
single gold standard man, and a clean
man in his private life. Mr.. Cum
mings is likely to prove the strongest
man On the ticket.
Abner Lewis Of Aumsville is the
heaviest taxpayer on the ticket. He
is a clean, conscientious man, who
wants to do what is rlghtif he knows
it.
The JOURNAL does not consider
that the ticket as whole is as good
as the Union ticket which it Is sup
porting. But 1t is not afraid TO speak
we'll OF such Republican nominees
whom IL is opposing as matter of
principle.

STATE TREASURY DOODLE.

The Peoples bank at Philadelphia,
which has collapsed and whose cashier
has committed suicide, is the one re-
ferred to by John Wanamaker in his
recent indictment of the Quay reg
ime. "A Philadelphia bank capital
'ized at $4,000, private institution
whose president is Quay's old lieu
tenant, has continuously carried
deposit from the state treasury
ranging from 100000 to sl,200,OOO,
while school districts are waiting in
vain for school money long past
due"
Does anyone believe that a band of
Doodle politicians does not manipu-
late the Oregon state treasury funds
in the same manner, or that a show
down Of our state treasury would re-
veal the whereabouts of the cash.?

he is In position to compel a clean
up aud that he is free TO put an end TO
