TOMBSTONE TALKS OF I'M

Hon. George Johnstone, of
Newberry, said that now that we

sidsred on its merits. We have
a right to see from whence it
comes. If it is right it should be
adopted; if wrong repudiated.
The alleged new ideas are as old
as the world and have engrossed
attention for ages. They are the
emanations from the brain of
Alexander Hamilton, monarchist
at heart and lover Of kingly
power. He was, he bslived, one
of those who tried to persuade
Washington to establish kingdom
here, with the latter as king. The
speaker ridiculed the idea that
this government could be an en-
pire and remain republic, con.
tending that it was an impossible
amalgamatior. Do not, he warn
ed, confound Expansion" with
"inperialism." Shall we swap

Mckinley chooses to exercise his

Dwarf Essex Rape.

A party writing from Green
Leaf, Or, to the Practical Farm
er, has this to say in favor of
rape:
I have given Dwarf Essex
rape trial and think it will be
worth more to me than any ether
single crop. As an experiment
I sowed a pound of the seed in
'9e. The following winter it
was ted dewn closely by horses
and deer, both Of which seemed
fond Of it. Last summer 1t grew
higher than my head, and though
it was allowed to get too ripe
and I lost half Of the seed, yet
saved 12H pounds. I sowed
one.quarter of an acre on the 10th
of September last; from Christ
mas to April 1st I moved this
and fed 10 daily to tive cows,
with the exception Of two weeks
when there was snow on the
ground. Then I changed to the
same weight Of futabagas and
there was decrease In the milk
flow. If a carrot be fed with the
rape 1t is left till every leaf Of
rape has been eaten. The plaats
inowed at New Years were ready
to cut again in 2H months.
Hogs eat it greedily. By SOW
ing In July / expect TO feed it all

will take the place of roets which
cost much more to produce. 1

detect any odor or favor of rape
in the milk. The Agricultural
Department regrets that rape
seed cannot be grown prohtably
in this ceuHtry, and the bulk
has to be imported. One man
In Oregon last year raised 80
acres Of rape seed, and it paid
better than wheat.

Butter and Eggs shsrt.

Notwithstanding the great ex-

in this regien Of late, the supply
Of butter is not equal to the de-
mand, and Eastern butter Is

all disposed Of already, and as
the present output of the dairies

mand the shortage will have to
be made geed by Eastern butter.
Eggs of late have been scarce,
and several carloads have been
sent from the East, but none Of
them. have come here, so far as
known. With eggs at IS cents
a dozen in Portland and IS cents
per dozen In Chicago, there is a

After harvest, the output ef eggs

Charged With Felony.

1
Sheriff Burnett retained from
Eugene yesterday In charge o.
one Haskins, Iwhe was arrested
iii that city Sunday, charged
with a felony committed In Ben.
ton county On or about the I7th
of this month.
Last week, Mr.. West, proprie.
tor of a livery stable in Eugene,
came to Corvallis and swere out
a warrant for the arrest of Has.
kins. According to Mr.. Vests
story, Haskins hired a riding
horse from the West stables a
couple Of weeks ago, and later
retarned to the stable with the
saddle and bride and stated that
the horse had taken fright at a
hog which suddenly crossed the
road near Muddy river a short
distance from Monroe, Jumped
into the stream and was drown
ed.
Upon inquiry, Mr.. West1earn-
ed that Haskins had been seen
by parties on the read leading to
Junction and Monroe and he was
riding the animal at desperate
gait. Near Monroe, Ii Is alleged
he was seen walking and driving
the horse which was badly
tagged. With this information
in his possession, Mr.. West be.
lieves that Haskins punished the
animal so badly from hard riding
that it was nearly dead and that
then it was driven into the river,
where it died.
Upon advice from this city
Hask1ns was arrested at EHgene
by the sheriff of Lane county
and he will be given a hearing
before Justice Holgate. Felony
is a penitentiary efense and
may be punished by fac or i'm
ptisenment.

Safficient for the Present.

Ia response to a request from
Regent John DAILY, Capt. J. T.
Appersen came up from Oregon
City, Friday. They met to de.
tetmihe what course to follow in
the matter of water supply at
the O A c. Il will be remefn-
bered that they recently bored
down ffem the bottom of the we'll
over 100 feet and that what
water they got came up On the
outside Of the tnbina. The tub
ing was tHen raised and again
put down, but this time only te
a distance of forty feet. This
took il down to a strata Of slate,
when they secured an abundant
supply Of water. This makes
the water supply come from a
depth OF. about SO feet. Regents
DAILY and Apperson decided to do
nothing further at present in the
matter, as everything indicates
that the water supply will be
sufficient for this year. and to at
tempt to better "wel1 enough
might result disastrousiy. Un-
der the present conditions they
acted wisely in not jeepardizing
their present water supply at the
college. However, at the close
of the present school yeaf it may
be advisable to do something
furthur to make ample provis-
ions for the future.

THE HAPPY FARMER.

The farmer can read of wealth, he
can dream of it if not too weary, he
can sigh for it, he can look at it as it
drives by with noiseless wheels, plate
glass windows in the carriage, bob
tailed horses, and women in silks and
furs, with jeweled hands. and dia-
monds cleaning. But poor, deluded
creature all he really does do is to vote
to keep patches on his own trousers,
his own boys at the plow, his girls
washing and hoeing in the garden, his
wife working and striving to keep the
house looking little decent within
If it does lack paint ON the outside,
and the window panes are fewer than
they have been. The farmer who is
the head of a family of the average
kind in this land of OURS, gets a day
off to hear the politician tell what
prosperity and Hanna have done for
the country and especially for him,
then he goes home, tells the old wo-
man and the kids, and they all thank
Mr.. Hanna and he hastens to vote to
continue the luxurious life they are
leading.-&aunton Spectator.

MONTAGUE AND THE MACHINE.

Mr.. Andrew jackson Montague is
a very shrewd politician as we'll as a
very polite and agreeable gentleman,
but he has made his reputation in
this fight for the Democratic nomina-
tion for Governor by his fierce and
persistent attacks upon the Demo-
cratic machine.
But disinterested men will note
that wherever Mr.. Montague had
succeeded in building up machine
of his own or of capturing the local
machine he used it for all it was
worth and proved himself an adept
in its use, showing that he was about
as skillful as tom Martin" even.
Again, the people who are calm
enough not to have become violent
partizans of either Montague or
Swanson will recall the fact that
everything political Montague ever
got he obtained through the Demo-
cratic machine which he is now so
busily engaged in denouncing.
Let them go ahead, for we feel as
sured these quarreIs amongst these
Democratic factions cannot be harm
full to honest men.-SpirH of tie
Ralley (Republican).
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1901-06-28
THE POST MAKES PREDICTIONS

The Washington Post this morning
practically comedies that Mr.. Monta-
que will be the nominee as follows:
"When Mr., Echols arrived whispers
went the rounds that Representative
Swanson might retire from the race;
that the lieutenant governor might
become his beneficiary; but Mr.. Swan
son, whose showing in the campaign
has not been due to any weakness in
his own personality or qualifications
for high Office, but rather to gen.
eral determination to down the DEM
ocratic organization, has given no
hint as yet of any such purpose. He
went into the country early this eve
ming for rest, and, as far as known,
has no immediate announcement to
make.
Unless all signs fail the attorney
general will soon have undisputed
sway over all gubernatorial aspirants,
and Democratic efforts will be direct
ed toward healing the wounds that
have been made by the fray and to-
ward the scramble of candidates for
lieutenant-governor and attorney
general. There is pressing call for
party harmony after such a bitter
struggle which loyal party men will
not be slow to heed in the light of
recent development"
"The nomination of Mr.. Joseph
Willard, of Fairfax, as lieutenant
governor, is regarded almost as GER
tain as that of Mr.. Montague for gov
ernor. 1t is pointed out that MIR,
Montague can control nearly all of
his delegates to the Norfolk conven-
tion.
elf it is true, as so often declared,
that Willard and Montague have an
understanding, then it would be nat
ural to assume that the attorney gen.
eral will do all he can to forward
his friends aspirations"
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1901-06-28
SOME INSIDE PoLITtes.

To contest in future all delegations
of his opponent seems pretty we'll to
have been a policy recently adopted
by Mr.. Montague and his friends.
Such tactics, where groundless, are
revolutionary in the extreme, and it
will probably result in serious COM
pllcations at the Norfolk convent ton.
1t is more than probable it will be
met by similar tactics by the friends
Of other candidates.
Already Franklin county has given
sample of this method of politics.
1t is pretty well agreed that Mr..
Swanson's forces there were six or
eight to his opponents one aud the
secretary of the mass meeting, who
was Montague supporter, signed
the list of delegates elected for Swan
son by the regularly organized mass
meeting. The hundred or SO Monta-
que people withdrew to a corner and
named list of contesting delegates.
Later, gentlemen who were named,
refused to serve, and the friends of
the Attorney General are busy look
ing up men with gall enough TO con-
sent to 60 before the Norfolk conven-
tion and contest the seats of the le-
gally chosen Swanson delegates.
The fight at Newport News is al
most on level with the Franklin
game. Some twenty men in bunch,
who were from Norfolk, were discov-
cred in one of the ward meetings with
Montague ballots in their possession.
They were elected, but tits presumed
they went into another ward and
succeeded in being counted. A gem
tleman from Essex county, who is a
supporter of the Attorney-G General,
happened to be in Newport News on
the day of the ward meetings and
was urged by Mr.. Montague's broth
er-in-law to remain over and vote at
the meetings. In relating the incl
dent the gentleman stated that he
refused to do so, and that, although
he still desired to see Mr.. Montague
nominated, his enthusiasm had be-
come very much abated by this act
upon the part of his relative.
