To THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY COMMIT
TEE OF AUGUSTA COUNTY:

To THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY COMMIT
TEE OF AUGUSTA COUNTY:
Gentlemen:-I beg leave to acknowl-
edge service of notice of contest from
Mr. T. A. Brown, late candidate be-
fore the Democratic primary. for the
Office of sheriff, which said notice is
herewith returned.
Under the plan of the primary which
provided that ''all duly registered
Democrats of the county of Augusta,
and city Of Staunton, who we're in
sympathy with the Democratic party
or supported its nominee in the Con-
gressiOnal election of 1858, should be
entitled to vote in said primary, 1 re-
spectfully submit that the judges OF
the primary election at the several
precincts could do nothing else than
receive the votes of such voters as up
on their own statements were qualified
to vote in said primary. l have no
doubt that in the primary just held
there were votes cast by members of
other parties, as is the case, in great
er or less degree, in every non-legalized
primary, but deny that at any one of
the precincts named in the contest
ants notice the judges "disregarded
and violated the rules, laws and reg
ulations prescribed and ordered b.
the Committee" as alleged by the coll
testant.
II the votes of the precincts named
by contestant. where l received ma
jorities, are rejected by the Committee
on the pretext alleged by him, 1 re-
spectfully submit that l might ask
for the rejection of the votes of the
following precincts on the ground that
voters, who may have been heretofore
Republicans, voted at them, viz: Arbor
Hill, Sandy Hollow, Bolivar, Burnett,
Mt. Solon, .Sangersville, Centerville,
tParnassus, Middlebrook, Buffalo GAP
and Churchville.
Finally, l respectfully submit to the
Committee that the paper filed by
contestant is, on the face of it, insult
ficient, and before law court of com
petent jurisdiction would be unhesitat
!ingly dismissed for the reason that il
states no case for the contestant saw,
in the most general way. A referenc,
by the committee to the State law
governing contested elections (sectiol
160, code 1887, will show the fnsuf
ficiency of the contestants s allegations
The law requires as an essential ele
ment of the contest that 'if the objec
ton be to the legality of the election

Profitable Bee Culture.

j. F. Daingerfield, the well known bee
man of Scappoose, brought nearly a ton
of honey to Portland recently as a par
tial result of last seasons work on the
part of 10 colonies Of busy bees. He says
rains interfered more or less with the
workings of the insects during the season
of 1893, and his crop was lighter in con-
sequence.
Mr.. Daingerfeld pursues the raising OF
bees and the production of honey as much
for pleasure as for profit, as he loves the
industrious little fellows and prides him
self on never getting angry at them, even
when his hands are pierced by their
stings, which is quite often. He therefore
sympathizes with the bees, who have
stored their honey in hollow trees, when
he hears of the remorseless bee hunters
cutting the trees down to destroy the
hive, and leave the insects to starve to
death, their only recourse when their food
is gone, as none of the bees are ever per-
mitted to enter the hives of strange col
onies, sentries being stationed at the en-
frances for the purpose of keeping
strangers out.
Bee trees are numerous in the bottom
lands of Columbia county, many of the
swarms having originated in his own
hives, though numbers have come in from
other portions of the state. The wild
honey is not fit for marketing, however
and so people who hack bee trees down
do SO to obtain some for their own use
and for the fun of the thing, as they
would go hunting.
A swarm of bees, under favorable cir.
cumstances, Mr.. Daingerfeld says, will
make 800 pounds of honey during the sea
son in Columbia county. They will need
only IS pounds to keep them through the
year, so the bee man can confiscate 26t
pounds of the product without doing the
bees an injustice.
White clover blossoms furnish the most
acceptable nectar for honey making, and
the blooms on the Oregon maple are very
good. A bee will roam in radius of two
miles from his hive in quest of honey
but no further, SO, although Mr.. Dain
gerfeld is the only person engaged in the
production of honey in his locality, hi
cannot take advantage Of the large terri
tory not occupied by apiar1es In that por
tion of Columbia county.

Major General Nelson A. Miles pays a
glowing tribute to the valor of the Amer
lean soldiers in the fight at Manila.
"The American soldiers have again met
with remarkable success, just as they did
all through the late war;" he said. "This
last conflict and its glorious results is but
another testimonial to the courage, patri-
otism and gallantry of our soldiers. They
respond nobly to call to duty and acquit
themselves with honor.
"All reports show that officers and men
distinguished themselves by their GOODNESS
and true American fortitude under fire.
Their heroism adds to the fame of our
army.
81 feel quite certain that the conflict
will have a salutary effect upon the in
surgents and will doubtless discourage
them from renewing hostilities."

English Praise Our Volunteers.

The Telegraph, commenting upon the
fighting at Manila, says:
1T is quite clear that the Americans
have given the Filipino rebels a very
sound thrashing at a comparatively small
cost to themselves. They have for the
time being, at all events, placed Manila
in safety until the reinforcements now
en- route reach General Otis. Although
the majority of the American soldiers at
Manila were volunteers, they appear to
have fought with as much discipline and
gallantry as their regular comrades could
baye exhibited"
