The President, Rep .Littlefeld
and Attorney General Knox.
WHAT THEY HAVEDONE

TIoNs OF CAPITAL.
Bill to Amend the Sherman Law and
the Substitute offered by the

Great interest still attaches to the trust
triumvirate"-Preside Roosevelt Repre-
sentative Littlefield and Attorney General
Knox-and what these gentlemen have
thought on this subject, as well as what
they have done, Is now being scanned for
indications of what may be expected in the
future.
AS Mr. Littlefield is the only legislator in
the combination, and as he has been active
along this line during his three years in
Congress, there seems to be a trail blazed
behind him which indicates to an undoubted
certainty the course he will continue to
pursue when he takes the matter up next
winter.
Mr. Iittlefeld has been written to for il
statement of the condition of his mind on
this question at the present moment and in
rerly he states that he is receiving similar
requests from the press in all sections of
the country. that he deems ii best for him
self. as well as for the good of the cause,
that he shall say nothing on the subject at
this time. Mr.. Littlefield has corresponded
with friends in Washington, however, since
ne is reputed to have been selected by the
President to lead a rough-rider crusade
against great combinations of capital in
the House next winter. 1t is understood
from this correspondence that the matter
has not progressed to the extent of def
mite understanding regarding the drafting
of bill.

Presidents Probable Plan.

When it became a certainty that the
House committee on the Judiciary would
report neither of the bills introduced by
Mr. Littlefield the President in the course
Of a conversation just before the adjourn
ment Of Congress- entirely in an informal
manner. urged Mr.. Littlefeld TO keep the
subject in mind and TO continue TO press
legislation at the next session.
The plan is. so far as any plan has been
formed, for the President to repeat in his
next message his recommendations in re-
gard TO trusts, probably at greater length
and with more emphasis. Mr.. Littlefield
will then continue to urge the report of his
bills in modified form, or he will embody
their provisions in one measure and intro
duce It early in December.
1t is altogether probable that before he
does this he will consult Attorney General
Knox and Judge William A. Day, who has
been connected with the Department of JUS
tice in the prosecution of the beef trust.
Judge Day has made a study of corporation
law, and will doubtless be able to give Mr..
Littlefeld valuable assistance in modifying
the two pending bills or in framing a new
measure. Only to the extent that the ad-
ministration is anxious for more trust legis-
lation will Mr.. Littlefelds bills be known

command of the division Of the Philippines
The retirement of Gen. Brooke makes no
vacancy in the list of major generals.
That vacancy has been already anticipated
by the appointment of Gen. George w. Da-
Wis as major general. Gen. Davis will
succeed Gen. Chaffee in command of the
military forces in the Philippines in Sep
tember next.
A Distinguished Record.
With the exception of Lieutenant General
Miles General Brooke is the only officer on
the active list of the army who reached the
grade of brigadier general during the civil
war. General Brooke had a distinguished
military record during the civil war, enter
ing volunteer captain of a Pennsylva-
mia regiment. He wounded four times
and was brevetted three times during that
war. He was breyetted colonel of regulars
for gallant and meritorious services in the
battle >of Gettysburg, brigadier general of
regulars for gallant and meritoriouS serv-
ices in the battle of Spottsylvania Court
House and major general of volunteers for
distinguished services in the battles of Tolo-
pOtomy and Cold Harbor, Va. He was
wounded at Fair Oaks, Va, at Chancellors-
vile, ct Gettysburg and at Cold Harbor,
Va.
He was made lieutenant colonel in the
regular army a the time of the reorganiza-
tion in 1866, and has been advanced in regu-
lar order to be major general, which grade
he reached III May, 1897.
In the Spanish War.
At the outbreak of the Spanish war he
was at Chicago in command of the lakes
and was placed in command of the Pro-
visional Army Corps at Camp Thomas Ga.
He next commanded the 1st Army Corps
and the Department of the Gulf. In July,
1898, he designated a commissioner
under the protocol to arrange for the evac-
uation by the Spanish troops of the Island
of Porto Rico and commanded all troops
on that island and also the Department of
Porto Rico until December 3, 1898. He
was then transferred to Cuba and placed in
command of a division there, after which
he was made military governor of that
island and served in that capacity until
relieved by Gen. Wood in December. 1889,
when he returned to the United States and
placed in command of the department OF
the east, with headquarters at New York,
where he is now stationed.
Efforts Were made by the President dur
ing the last session of Congress to have
bill passed allowing him to retire with the
rank of lieutenant general, but owing to
the pressure to secure similar recognition
for other officers The bill failed.

The Price for Picking.

A hop-picker sent the following to the
Eugene Register:
"Yop can inform the hop growers oi
Lane county through your columns that
we folks who pick hops do not intend to
work for nothing this season. Hops will
be good price and the growers will
have to come up on picking figures il
they expect to have their hops cared for
properly. 1 have talked with many
hop pickers who see it as | do, for there
is plenty of other work to be had that
pays better than picking hops at last
years prices. Aside from those who 60
to the hop fields partly for an outing
and to make pin money as a sert OF
diversion it is probable that unless a
fairly good price Is offered there will be
scarcity of first class pickers this fall.
However, we hardly look for hop
pickers' union to be formed"
1t is safe to predict that owing to the
scarcity of all kinds of laborers this year
in this section section, as we'll as that
the price of hops promises to be good,
that pickers will receive somewhat bet
ter pay than in the past.

Benton Will Not Exhibit.

Benton county will not have
an exhibit at the state fair this
fall. No preparations have been
made for this purpose, and it is
now too late to begin. Last year
Mr.. Preach had charge of the
exhibit. He began early, and
by intelligent and untiring effort
succeeded in capturing the sec
ond prize for this county. Early
last spring the Citizens League
took the matter in hand, and
proposed that the county court,
city council, agricultural college,
grange and league should each
appoint a man to act On a COM
lnittee whose duty would be to
prepare exhibits for the state
fair and Lewis and Clark exposi-
ton. This committee has never
met, and consequently nothing
has been done. Steps should be
taken at once to prepare an eX'
hibit for the Lewis and Clark ex-
position. No inanis better quail
fed to take c-arge of this work
than Mr.. French, and if he will
accept the task, it would be wise
to place the matter in his hands
Immediately, and let everyone
render him ali the assistance pos.
sible.

Principle and Principal.

Secretary Of State Dunbar has
issued an official list of officers OF
all the counties in the state, Civ
ing the political party to which
each officer belongs, and the list
reveals some interesting local
conditions. While there are but
few counties of the state which
can be classed as democratic Oh
state or National issues or officers,
yet the democrats secure the
lions share of the important
county offices in many localities.
Of the 80 county judges, only 12
are republicans, the other 2I be-
ing democratic, citizen or union.
Of the county clerk II are re-
publican, and 16 from the oppo-
sition, while of the sheriffs only
IS are republican, with IS demo-
Gratis. When it comes to hold
ing the sack, however, the pub
lie confidence seems to be with
the republicans, who have 23 of
the county treasurers, against 10
democrats; and in educational
affairs there is a similar leaning,
~ county superintendents being
republican and II democratic,
In dealing with property the
leaning is not quite 50 strong,
but there are 10 republican as
SCISSORS to "a democrats. OF the
county courts, six are composed
entirely of democrats or opposi-
ton to republicans, viz: Baker,

A SAFE INVESTMENT.

A systematic effort s 10 be
made throughout the state, hav-
ing for its object the encourage
ment of immigration from the
states of the Middle West to Ore
gon. The plan proposed by the
Hartman syndicate to accom-
plish this result has been out
lined in the GAZETTE. No plan
could be more feasible or pur-
pose more laudable. The Har-
riman syndicate promises to do
more than its share. All it asks
is that the people of Oregon lend
hearty assistance and do what is
impracticable tor Mr.. Mckinney
and his associates to do.
Every locality knows better
than it is possible for anyone else
to know, what special induce
ments it has to offer homeseekers.
All that is asked by Mr.. McKin-
ney is, that the people of each
section prepare a statement OF
facts concerning their particular
section and have it printed in
the form of a neat pamphlet con-
tanning from ten to twenty pages.
From SO, 900 to 100, 900 copies OF
these pamphlets should be placed
in the hands of the resident rail
way agent, and the Hartman
immigration bureau will do the
rest.
We believe that all are con-
vinced that the thing mos
needed by Oregon today is in
crease of desirable population
Benton needs and should have
her share. To get it she MUS
compete with every other county
in the state. To be sure, we will
reap some benefit from the gen
eral advertising which will bt
done by the railway companies
but to hold our own with othe
sections, we must send out liter
ature advertising Benton county
Preparation is being made t'
do this very thing. At a meet
ing of the executive committee
of the Citizens League held las
Saturday night, Messrs. S. L
Kline, Robt. Huston and Henr,
Amber were appointed as
a committee to canvass for fund
to defray the expenses of getting
out a descriptive pamphlet o
this county. The business mel
of Corvallis and Philolnath am
leading farmers are expected t.
contribute $500 to this fund, AM
Benton county should add
liberal contribution out of til
general fund. In all probabilit,
there will he no exhibit from
this county to the state fair thi
fall, and the money usually Sc
aside for that purpose could b.
put to no better use than in ad
vertising the resources of the
county. That is the object o
an exhibit at the fair, anyway
and more people will have thei
attention attracted here by th'
literature which it is proposed t,
send out than any exhibit coule
possibly attract. A judicious ex
penditure from the county fune
for advertising just now will bt
awise investment, for it will be the
means of increasing our popula
ton. Increase of population mean
more taxpayers, more producers
more consumers. 1t means tina
our roads will be improved, tha
our land will be made more pro
ductive, that more raw product
will be shipped out and mor'
money brought in. The county
court will certainly grasp thi
opportunity.
