Life of Hep-Po1es.

All hop-growers realize the time
labsr and money expended in fre.
quent renewing Of poles. The wish
is frequently expressed that some
preparation could be discovered tc
save this triple expenditure. Such
a discovery has been made in, Car
bolineum Avenarius.
This is an oily compound for the
preservation of wood. It can be
easily applied to green or dry wood
land will preserve either, without
deterioration, for an indefinite per-
iod. Discovered in Germany over
25 years ago, it is successfully used
today all over the world for rail-
road sleepers, pavements, bridges.
ship timbers and hundreds of other
purposes. Absolutely effect ual in
preserving material under such Sc
we're usage as this, its protective
value for hop poles, exposed simply
to air and soil, can be readily per-
ceived. A single treatment will in
sure them from decay, dry rot and
vermin (the latter injurious to vine
and pole alike) for ten years and
render sharpening unnecessary for
at least five. This can be safely
guaranteed from successful results
obtained in treating telegraph poles,
in varying climates, subjected to
almost identical exposure. In these
cases Oarbolineum Avenarius, has
always stood the test.
When such facts as these are
presented to the hop grower, argu-
ments in favor of using the preven
tative would seem little needed.
Additionally, the cost of the article
is light and it can be cheaply ap-
piled by any person. This Is done
with the brush or, better still, by
dipping the poles into the liquid.
Purchasers should notice carefully
that the full name "Carbolineun,
Avenarius" appears on the package
as spurious limitations are offered
by unscrupulous persons under the
name Carbolineum and other sim
liar titles, calculated to deceive the
unwary. These are as worthless as
the genuine article is valuable For

both branches, has been men of
other pursuits, than such as might
enable them to comprehend this
matter, and therefore, I have not
been able to obtain necessary sup
port and!if one cannot have support
from the home delegation it is not
likely much support will be found
to initiate and guide through the
entanglements of legislative ses-
sion bill of so radical a departure
from existing laws as the one I
mention. In order to present and
in some manner assist in the pas
sage Of this bill, it would be nces-
sary to explain its provisions and
show their effects, and to overcome
the opposition which would be GER
tain to be met. I have been
promised support from some of
my profession in the legislature
for the bill, and it is possible that
the bill could be gotten through
and become a law, and in some de-
gree the inequalities 80 apparent in
the present law be adjusted.
The above are the only reasons
why I have permitted my name to
be- used for the legislative nomina-

In announcing himself as candi-
date for the Office of president of
the United States, Admiral Dewey
cheapens himself in the estimation
OF his countrymen. His achieve
ments in Manila bay filed his meas
ure of greatness to overfowing and
hisssname was inscribed on Fame's
proudest pinnacle. He displayed
shrewdness by holding himself
for months from the eager arms Of
his countrymen, for since his arri-
val home he has steadily lost cast
with those who are ever looking
for a new bauble. Dewey is our
naval hero and sober minded peo-
pie who delight to honor him for
his noble deeds and forget his short
comings, will only feel sympathy
for him in his latest display of
weakness. Let US repeat what We
said last December: "But yester-
day the name of Dewey awed the
American people; now, none SO
poor to do him reverence. No man
has stood the test of public scrutiny
like William Mckinley"

Needed Tax Reform.
CORVALLIS. April 8. 100

CORVALLIS, April 8, l9UU.
UNIoN-GAzETTE:-I have been
asked to state what tax reforms are
needed, and what might be done in
that direction by the legislature.
This article refers TO the whole
state and not to any particular
county.
The reforms needed, include a
general reduction of public expenses,
and system which will be admin
istered, for the least expense, and
to insure equality and uniformity
between the several classes of tax
payers.
How to accomplish this has been,
indeed, problem. The public ex.
pense could, and ought to be re.
duced in many particulars. There
Is great waste and some scandal
on account of the clerk hire abuses
which have grown up in the legis-
lature. There has been an enor.

The ticket nominated by the
democratic and populist county
convention at Albany, Wednesday,
has the merit of being fair at least.
Beginning with county judge, which
Office fell to the populists, each
alternate officer named was given
to that party Thus the democrats
named the sheriff, recorder, school
superintendent and surveyor. while
the populists chose candidates for
clerk, treasurer, commissioner and
coroner, as well as county judge.
Will Benton county democrats con-
cede as much?

The salary of the district attorney
for the second judicial district was
raised at the last session Of the
legislature $4,000 per year and
~ ss,s.d I'd lsIs ssiary year. ~s'
Ssl-aiss ing the term it viii be
proper for ths next legislature to
reduce the salary to at least half of
the amount and the several county
conventions should SO instruct their
several members at the legislature.
They should also be instructed to
reinact the free bill which existed
under Hills Code just prior to the
time when the county officers were
salaried, so that the parties employ
ing the county officers shall pay
the fees to the officers and they turn
the same over to the county treas
urer to repay the county for the
salaries paid out to the several
officers.

Ifths people think it proper to
cause.-the district attorneys salary OF
the second judicial district reduced
from $4,000 per year they should
make strenuous effort at the next
legislature to have it so reduced,
for the reason that those intere sted
in keeping the salaries of public
officers high, claim that the in
cumbent elected to an Office when
the salary is at certain figure has
some kind of a vested right in the
salary whereby it would be in bad
faith to reduce the salary during
his term; which claim exists in
imagination, but not in Law; yet
the same parties never think it
improper to raise a public salary
to take effect during the term.
