vance the ball consistently. and was gen
orally forced to kick on the third down.
while Tome gained good ground at al
most every point of attack. The day was
cold and raw, with a strong wind blow
ing from the west, which made it difficult
for the backs to handle the ball. and
there was good deal of fumbIing. Tome
lost one touchdown in this way, fumbling
the ball after carrying it over the goal
line, and missed two others by losing the
ball twice on opponents fivc-yard line.
Wright and Davis played especially well
for Delaware while for Tome. Williams
blocked a kick on Delaware's 3O-yarl
line, and Tollnger secured the ball and
carried it over for IL touchdown. Mat

yards through half the Delaware team

holes for the backs. and on defense were

Intelligent Swine Feeding,

Swine feeding should be just as clean
and wholesomely intelligent as that Of
any other farm animal. The quality Of
the food must indeed be considered.
Do not dump great quantities Of refuse
in the pen and then, ii the animals
clean ii all up, rest content with the
idea that they have made good pork
off food that cost you nothing Some
times the pigs will eat a great
amount TO find a very little nourish-
mcnt- Now. the pigs do need a good
deal in quantity. but there must be
some quality also. II we feed them on
the busks we must add grain or milk
or other good food in fair proportion to
give them The nouriShment they re
quire. We cannot expect to make good
pork or bacon out of leaves and the
barnyard rakings If we could. pork
would go a good deal lower than it is
today, and farmers would be quickly
doubling their profits. Yet little in
telligent feeding will enable us to dis
pose of Stops and other cheap foods to
advantage. 1t Is all in balancing the
ration. so we do not cheat ourselves by
trying TO cheat the swine.

Paris, Nov. 5-Admiral Caillard's
squadron arrived off the island of Syra
(Grecian archipelago) yesterday, and
detached dispatch boat, which entered
the port of Syria and received at the
telegraph station batch of dispatches
containing definite instructions from the
French government regarding carving
out the sealed orders which we're handed
to the admiral previous to his leaving
Toulon. These dispatches directed Adj,
mlral Caillard to proceed to the island
OF Mytiene, where he will seize the Gus
toms of Midilli and another port.

vemher B. The correspondent here of
the Associated Press is enabled to make
the following statement:
When the French government decided
to sen1 French squadron to Turkey in
order to enforce claims, it debated
whether to seize the customs at Sa-
lonlca, Beirut or Smyrna, as it was
realized that the receipts of one of these
three ports would required to produce
n sufficient sum to pay off the French
claims without long occupation. which
was considered inadvisahle.
Admiral Cailard has seized and oc
cupied the three principal ports of the
island of Mytilepe.

Public Land, a Spokane publication
devoted to that which it's name implies,
SAYS: There are at least one hundred
excellent homestead claims in Lincoln
and Adams counties in the state of
Washington that can be had by any one
wishing to go to the small expense OF
contest. The claims referred to are
those that have been taken by men who
are either in business in the towns
throughout the district referred to or
are employed in the different towns in
the various occupations. All that is
necessary to be done in order to find
these claims is to decide on the particu
lar locality in which you wish to settle
then make a canvass of the business
men, ask them where their homestead
claim is, then go and make an eAamina-
ton of the claim, make inquiries of the
settlers living near it, as to where the
particular man lives who claims the
land adjoining theirs, and you will find
that he lives on certain street 10 the
town where you first found the business
man, and when you look up his town
residence you will find the coal shed at
such town residence to be in better con.
dition OF repair than his house" was on

The testimony adduced by the Schley
court OF inquiry, as to the admiral's
action before and at the battle of Santi-
ago enshrines the gallant old hero still
deeper in the hearts of the people. That
jealousy in the navy could lead to so
foolish and useless a waste of time and
money as that consumed by the fussy
court of inquiry which ''investigates"
the acts of a commander after he has
smashed hostile fleet to smitherines ia
deplorable. If he had annihilated an
other fleet or left every land battery a
wreck, would he have been simply dis
honorably discharged from the service
or imprisoned for life? The American
people look for results when their ships
go into action. They got these through
Admiral Schley, as through Dewey, and
they are satisfied, no matter what the
court of inquiry may decide. Schley
won the victory and freely divided the
honors. Sampson, unfortunately for
himself was a few miles away and I'M
able to get in until the work was done,
but there is small doubt that the result
would have been the'same had he been
in the thick. There was nothing to
quarrel over, but SIMPSONS friends
bounded and actually forced Admiral
Schley to ask for an investigation of his
method of submerging the vessels of

not already regret his fool friends, he

County and City Oficial Paper.
o. X. & N. Time Card.

Because the delinquent tax list OF
Whitman county, as published in The
Gazette, is rather lengthy one, is no
indication whatever of lack of pros
perity throughout the county. In the
first place, it is for the years prior to
1895, the panic days so we'll remembered.
Secondly, the list is composed almost
entirely of town properties, outlying or
in ill,favored locations, and owned in
large part by non-residents or unknowns,
and in many instances not worth the
trouble of it's absent owners to look
after it. Many owners are simply negli-
gent; others have deliberately refused to
pay, with money in their pockets, nurs-
ing the hope that some way would be
found to beat the collection.

The conservatives claimed that the
law was proposed was too radical, in-
asmrch as it provided that there
should be no Interference with the

and because the last elections showed
it to be impossible to conduct cleo
tions honestly without some restrain

provinces and manipulation were not
to be trusted to govern themselves
ard needed safeg guards equal to those

the commission 5 project the conserva-
tives said they would favor holding
thu elections under the existing law
and lesving to the republic the task
of drawing up suitable law later.
Another objection was that party lines
had not been clearly defined Is yet,
ard that the law provided for politi
cal representation on the election

tons, would be farce. Gen Saneuily

President Mckinley has, in a start

his good EatGre to stand bet xeen
bank officials criminally responsible

Bank officers convicted ard sentenced

President long before their terms of

effect of such treatment of one OF the
most serious of crimes is manifest.
The impression is created that. when

charged sacredly to guard, ne is COM
