not run on less money than it takes in,
and there was very little objection
made to the increase in rates. The rea-
son given to me for the withdrawal of
. of our members was on account of
the slOwness of the grand forum in
paying Mr.. Wilton's claim against the
order 1t looked at one time as though
the whole forum was going in a body
In fact the papers were drawn up to
make the transfer to the Knights and
Ladies Of Security, but before such an
action was taken deemed it my duty
as president of the forum to inform the
grand officers of the state of affairs
and to tell them that Mr. WiltOn's claim
would have to be settled quickly to
keep the Topeka forum from giving up
its charter. That is what brought Mr..
Gebhardt, the chairman of the auditing
committee out here from Chicago. He
did not come to settle Mr.. Wilton's
claim, as has been stated, but to settle
the trouble in the forum here.
MY attention has lately been called
to clause in the bylaws which we
had overlooked, which gives the grand
forum 80 days after the proof of death
is made before an assessment has to be
ordered to pay the claim Then by the
time the assessment comes in and the
claim is paid it takes five months.
4 would have everything to lose and
nothing to gain if the Topeka forum
gives up it's charter, because I am over
55 years old, and when am dropped
from the Home forum I could not get
into any other insurance organization"

WOULD BE AWFUL.
Republican Fixers May Have to
Turn Over College to
POpulists.

The Republican politicians are great
ly alarmed, fearing that if the supreme
court sustaIns the decision of the court
of appeals, the Populist regents will
gain control of the board of regents
of the Agricultural college, and rein
state Thomas E. VIII to the presidency
There are i've members of the board,
four of them being Republicans. II
two of the Republicans should be GUST
ed Regents Limbocker and Hoffman
and Mrs. St. John would then control
the board and would have all the
power which was WreSted from them
by the legislative investigation.
The court of appeals ordered yrits
of custer against two of the Republican
members in response TO the nIg4tloh
commenced by Hoffman and Linz
booker.
Judge J. S. West, assistant attorney
general, forwarded today to Concordla
a bond for the appeal of the case to the
supreme court. The appeal in the opin-
ion of this official will serve as a stay
of execution in the custer proceedings,
Should the court at ConcOrd1a hoId
otherwise application for a stay OF eX-
ecution will be formally presented to
the supreme court pending the hearing
of the case.
Should this unexpected decision Of the
court disOrganize the Republican ma
chine, which is in control of the State
Agricultural college there would be
deep grief in the Republican ranks
The Republican politicians have always
contended that the Populist board of
regents prOstituted this institution to
the dissemination of political principles
and neglected to make the institution
the leader of its class in the west along
the lines of educational reforms.
When the Republican administration
took charge of the state the Popultst
board was removed by an investtgat ton
which at the time was regarded pretty
much as a joke, but the POpulist regents
were Ousted and from the action of the
committee the members of the board
appealed by going into the court of ap-
peals and there they won an important
victory.
This is the first litigation which has
followed one Of these political inquisi-
tiOns and in the event the supreme
court should not sustain the action OF
the committee and should undo its work
by permitting the PopuIists to resume
their positions on the board of regents,
one of the greatest political surprises
of the year will have been accom-
plished.
The Republican managers of the ad-
ministratiOn profess no alarm at the
outlook and are preparing to contest
the case to the end. The legal depart
ment of the state is going into the case
in earnest and promises the fight of
the year in opposition to what they
term the unjust decision of the court
of appeals"
AS Prof. Will is now running a So
cialistic school, the Republicans are
very bitter in their denunciation of him.

THE TWENTIETH.
Friday the Thirteenth Unlucky Day
For Mr.. Crosby.

AS the finance committee was going
the rounds today somebody caught E.
H. Crosby at the telephone and in
formed him that the twentieth would
be here a week from today
What, no, how's that?" exclaimed
the chairman, more active than ever
who's this talking? Where's your in
formation? We are not prepared for
the boys yet"
Il can't understand you,' shouted the
head of the committee, wondering how
the balance of the ten thousand could
be raised in six days, and at the same
time giving the trumpet an extra twist
into his ear.
Somebody, and I don't know who it
is, is giving me the horse laugh,
through this telephone" said Crosby,
as he hung up the machine and reflect
ed that this was the 18th day of October
and that next Friday the twentieth
of the month will be here.
Come, boys" said Erastus. This
thing may cost me the cigars, but a
whole lot of people will have to put up
ten plunkS today"

The topeka Home Forum held a

J. o. Brintnall, Of Auburndale, who is
treasurer of the local forum, took issue
with others of the members through
whom the trouble was made public. Mr..
BrintnaH claimed that the reason

increase in the rates of assessment.

MERRITT FINDS FAULT
With the Artillery Branch of the Ser
vice.

Washington, Oct. 13-The annual re-
port of Major General Wesley Merritt,
commanding the department of the
east, headquarters Governors Island,
n. Y, was made public at the United
States war department today. The re-
port is a strong arraignment of the
whole situation in the artillery branch
of the service, being particularly di-
rected against the ordnance bureau and
incidentally the quartermasters de-
partment, the latter for failure to fur
nish what Gen. Merritt considers proper
quarters at artillery posts.
Gen. Merritt says that the system on
which the artillery is organized is
wrong in that the artilleryman who is
held responsible for the work he has
to do with guns has no voice in the
making or selection of them, this being
left entirely to the ordnance bureau.
But, he adds, that since the engineer
department in the same independent
way furnishes the artillery man with
his emplacements and there has been
no fault to find with this portion of
the equipment there must be something
more than the mere system to blame
for the unsatisfactory condition of af-
fairs.

Irregular Milking.

With the rainy season fully upon
us there is tendency or the part
OF COW owners, and particularly
those who keep but a small number,
to be irregular in the time of milk
ing. There is not mu>h 10 be done
ON the farm and late rising is quite
apt to be the rule, and desire to
have the chors done before dark
ness sets in, causes the milking TO
be done early in the evening. Trips
to town, all OCCASIONAL full davis
work on the farm, and other causes,
may make the milking hour earlirs
than usual in the morning and later
In the evening, thus giving rise to
an irregularity in the milking hour.
All really progressive dairymen
have a regular time for milking at
all seasons Of the year. 1t does
not matter so much whist the hour
IS, but it is best to have the inter
walls between milkings nearly equal.
A short experiment was conducted
with the Station herd nearly a year
ago to determine the effect Of irreg-
ularity in milking Six cows were
divided into two lots such that the
average age Of the COWS, and period
of lactation, also total yield of milk
were practically the same for each
lot. The two lots received the
same kind and amount Of feed, but
the COWS in Lot I were fed and
MIXED regularly at 4:3o p. N. and
5:3oa. IN. while those in Lot were
fed and MIXED at hours ranging
from 500 TO 900 a. NJ. and 400 to
600 p. m. A comparison of the
milk yield for three weeks, under
this arrangement, with the three
weeks preceding showed that the
COWS IN Lot I made a gain In yield
of SO per cent, while those in Lot
2 decreased in yield "A per cent.
Assuming that the COWS i'll Lot .
would have done as we'll as those
i'll Lot I if they had had the same
treatment, which is highly prob
able, we find loss of practically
ten per cent in the milk yield dur
ing three weeks, due to irregularity
in milking and feeding. The loss,
however, was confined to the milk
yield as there was practically no
change in the quality of the milk
during the test period.
The gain in yield by Lot I was
doubtless due TO better feed and
care than was received during the
preceding three weeks.-Oregon
