land is now made good by the appear.
ance of a new harvest which is as
steady as the traditional ice crop and
granite crop in Maine, and which
differs from them only in its steady
growth.
This is the crop of American tour
lists, which this year has broken the
record. The leading London tourist
agency estimates the European crop
this year at not less than 10000 Amer.
leans who have yielded an average
return of 1900, or $1,000, per tourist to
the European harvesters. In round
numbers we may call the total 800,
100000 or little bit more than the
value of Nebraska's 300, 100000 bushel
corn crop at 80 cents bushel.
In other words, this country con-
tributes to Europe every year-and
chiefly to Great Britain-nearly
enough' to pay the charges on the
British national debt or the cost of
British army, without any apparent
diminution of our prosperity. What
is even more remarkable is that ex-
posure to European influences does
not seem to exercise any detrimental
effect on the American tourists who
generally return home as loyal and
patriotic as when he went.
People with money to spend have a
right to squander it wherever they see
fit, hence there can be no means of |
checking the tide of tourists that

Oregon has attracted more atten-
tion from the eastern people ard
foreign travellers the past year than
ever before in its history. Not even
in the boom times of ten years ago
were there more visitors, Investigating
the resources and possibilities of this
state. than during the past twelve
months, many of them making ar
rangements to come to this state for
permanent residence. Best of all
among the thousands of visitors have
been number of United States sena-
tors and members of congress. Most
of those gentlemen had never been
west of the Rocky mountains before
and were wholly unacquainted with
the needs and possibilities of the
state. They were surprised at what
they saw, and will hereafter, when the
interests of this state are in question
be better prepared than before to act
intelligently and to give fair considera-
tion to the requests of this section.

LOVED HER TO DEATH.
Infatuation of One Woman For An
other Leads to Murder and Suicide.

Stockton, Cal, May "a peculiar
tragedy came to light here today when
the bodies of Mrs. William Hickman
and Mrs. H. A. Hassall. clasped in low
ing embrace, but both dead, were found
in a room of a lodging house, bullet
having ended the life of each. Mrs.
HassaH had been morbidly infatuated
with Mrs. Hickman for some months.
Last night Mrs. Hassa1l told Mrs. FIick-
man that she was going to start for
London today and begged Mrs. FIick-
man to spend the night with her. Mrs.
Hickman consented, and her relatives,
growing alarmed at her non-aDDear-
ance, visited the lodging house and dis
covered the bodies. Mrs. Hassall had
killed Mrs. Hickman and then herself
Mrs. Hassall came from London, Eng
land, and called herself the duchess,
claiming that her husband is a duke.
She became so madly infatuated with
Mrs. Hickman that her husband left
her, but the couple were about to be
reconciled. Mr.. Hassall is the chief
ranger of the Order of Foresters in this
city and is supposed to be well to do.
but he has been waiting in a restaurant
for some time.
Medical men are of the opinion that
Mrs. Hassall was insane The case is
similar to one which occurred at Mem
phis a few years ago.
