TIE VIEWS OF c E. 8. WOOD.

The Salem Statesman is In error
when II says that @. n, s. Wood, the
Democratic nominee for United States
senator. was or Is a free silver man.
lie was a gold Democrat. and as we
recollect. supported Palmer electors.
But In 1900 the issue OF imperialism
oyershRdowed all other matters. and
no laid aside the prejudice or oonvic'
tions no had against free silver, and
supported Bryan.
In this We may be mistaken, but
that 10 our present impression, In a
speech al the last Democratic banquet
AZ Portland. In 1900. he made an elo
quent speech for the abandonment OF
the Philippines,
On that issue he Is not even In ae-
cord with the Democratic platform, as
be goes 10 the extreme OF tho most
radical Massachusetts, "antis" and ad
v0cates armed resistance ON the part
OF the Fillpinos.
On the tarift question he Is an ad.
vOeate OF absolute free trade, not IN
the future some time. as some Repub-
lioans talk. but now and forever. I'm,

Those Pianos.

Having accepted to sell out the large
lot of pianos, as per telegram of
Jacob Doll in yesterdays paper, TO
close out as quickly as possible at a
large reduction from regular cost, yes
terday we cleaned and regulated them,
and among them are some entirely
new styles. This is surely a lovely lot
Of pianos, and am surprised at the
prices that are made for me at which
to sell them. They are a treat to see,
even if person does not think of
buying. Many pianos sold at 1915,
$400 and $3.50 are not as nice as these.
Then think, only 1888, 1851, down to
$13S. These prices are a small affair
to the others.
II you need a piano in the next two
or three years It pays you to buy now.
Notice what the Piano Purchasers

er of these instruments:

AS the Democratic platform stands
for a revenue tariff, and recognizes the
fact that the Philippines are American
territory, on these issues the Demo
cratic candidate for the United States
senate is not in harmony with his
party platform, nor with the great
mass OF the American people.
The Journal has the highest regard
for the ability and character and
scholarship Of G. f. s. Wood, and be-
lieves he Is perfectly sincere in his
views.
But we feel It is our duty to point
out that his views are not the views,
or at least have not been, of the great
mass Of the people of Oregon. to whom
he appeals for votes as a candidate

MARION COUNTY IDEAS NOT
WANTED.


The long and short of this campaign
is that the economical hayseed Ideas
that are prevalent to some extent
among the Republicans Of Marion
county are not wanted by the present
leaders of the party.
To h--ll with men like Geer and
Ford, and all that class who believe in
discussing matters before the people
and making campaigns with jawbone
instead of the barrel!
What is wanted is men who have q
sack, and will use II, and who Will de-
mand the use of the national sack
and don't have the sack too far out
Of reach of Jack Matthews, either.
The Marion county plan Of reducing
taxes, wiping out debt, leaving noml-
nations and elections TO the people,
and all that kind of nonsense, don't
go down at the Portland end Of the
machine.
Republicans may as well line up
with the trusts and the barrel and the
organizers, and forget their countrl-
fed notions about economical cam.
paigns and hayseed administration,
The Portland program is bound to be
put through, II state taxes are doubled.

INJusTIcg TO MR. MMAHAN.

The Journal inadvertently did Mr..
McMahan an injustice, as he says. in
quoting him as saying at the direct
primary meeting at the Salem City
hall, as follows;
1T does not follow that because a
legislator Is dishonest that he should
enact bad laws" That ia what we
thought We understood Mr. McMahan
10 say.
He Is candidate for the state sen,
ate on tho Democratic ticket. and we
would not mlsquote any man on such
a matter. Here is what MIR. MoMahan
says no said at that meeting. just the
opposite OF what we had him saying
1T does not follow because a man IL
honeat that he will not enact bad
laWa."
The difference Is material aud we
take pleasure In making the correc-
tiOn.

The County's Sheep Industry
B,- Ivon F. Dennis

The corporations from the county amount to 100000 pounds a year and bring SIS, S,75O,O0O.
 An article on sheep could not be properly concluded without some mention of the sheep dog. Without the sheep dog it would require more hands to collect a flock of sheep, gather them from the hills and drive them to market than the profits would be able to maintain. In the eastern countries, where the focks follow the shepherd, the dogs have only to guard the fold at night; but here, where. the country is rugged and great bands of thou sands spread in every direction while browsing, it would be impos- sible to handle sheep to an advan- tage without dogs.
 There are in Great Britain three varieties of sheep dogs: The Scot tish collie, the finest and most in- telligent; the southern sheep dog, of larger size, and the drover's dog or cur, black and white in color. It is from these varieties that the best dogs used here are derived. The intelligence of these dogs is some thing human.
 Darwin found in South America bands of sheep, miles from any habitation or man, in charge of one or two dogs He accounts for their wonderful attachment for sheep by explaining that wbile puppies they are taken away from their mother, made to suckle an eve, and associ- ate entirely with sheep.

Reclamation of the Arid Region.

From the address of George H. Maxwell before the executive com mittee of the Omaha Commercial club on Oct. 14:
 The people of this whole coun- try, and especially the western half of the United States, are thoroughly aroused as to the gigantic possibil- ities of national benefit which would flow from the reclamation and set clement of the arid region under a national irrigation policy.
 But there are comparatively few who realize that many things must be done to accomplish that result The national irrigation act merely brought us to the threshold of the problem It opened the door just far enough to see the vast benefits that lie beyond if we can get the door thrown wide open so that the people of this generation may enter and enjoy them.
 Mere appropriations from con- gress will not solve the question, no matter how large they may be. We must not only get larger appro- priations, but we must put down a foundation of public sentiment on which to build which will insure an enduring structure.
 In the first place the commercial and manufacturing interests of the country will benefit just in propor- ton as the whole people benefit, and who have.no local or personal Eatx C. l. permanently organized throughout the whole United States to carry on a great educational propaganda to awaken the people to a continuing realization of the vast importance of this problem, and to maintain an active and right public senti ment with reference to every phase of it.

1act, not so much as It was some years ago. In 1893 there were 221,- O97 sheep assessed in this county; last year there were only 127 POO, at an assessed valuation of S254, 400. This alarming decrease for the eight years is in the main attributable to two reasons-the last four or five years of drought and forest reserve complications
 The intentions of the department of the interior in regard to sheep on this reserve are not clearly understood by all. Of all the forest reserves in the United States there are but eight upon which sheep are permitted The San Francisco mountain reserve is one of these. It will probably remain so, although the grazing of sheep upon it will always be more or less restricted. The number is regulated each year according to conditions; a reduc- ton is made if it appears that the number allowed on the year before has worked an injury to the forest growth or range, or an increased number is allowed if it is found they may be grazed without injury. Before the formation of the present reserve our sheep ranges had been greatly overstocked- The grass was not only cropped to the very ground, but was also trampled to death, SO that each succeeding year the new growth was lighter. Under the regulations of the forest reserve authorities, this evil is being eradi- cated
 Permits for grazing sheep and allotments of sheep ranges are secured through the Wool Growers Association of the Territory. This association applies directly to Secretary Hitchcock of the interior department for a grazing permit for the total number of sheep to be grazed upon the reserve This application is granted upon recom- mendation of the forest supervisor. The Wool Growers Association then divides the ranges on the forest reserve so that each sheep owner may have an equitable share of range and water. The matter is left in their hands, as they are in better condition to handle the details than the department.
 The forest riders of the reserve keep count of the sheep on each district and see that each man stays on his own allotment. If an owner refuses to allow his sheep to be counted, goes off his own range, leaves fires, or otherwise infringes l the forest reserve rules, the number l of his sheep permitted on the | reserve is reduced or his permit is l entirely taken away from him.
 As a rule, along in November | the sheep are driven south, where | they are lambed and shorn. Along | about June they are brought back | into the county After shearing | they are dipped" to destroy sheep scab-
 Sheep scab is a parasitic growth which attacks the sheep in this | causing great damage. It is cured by plunging the sheep into deep vats of a warm bath. This bath is composed of a solution of | lime and sulphur.
 There are three kinds of sheep raised here. From these sheep are shorn three grades of wool, worth 10 to 15 cents per pound each One man in day can shear sixty

lNcANDESCENT LIGHTS OF
the CITY OUT FOR 10 DAYS
An Accident Occurs Friday Night
Rendering 1t Impossible to Light
the City For a Week.

Another accident has befallen the
Yakima Water and Light company
which renders disagreeable state of af-
fairs every where. The machine which
generates light for the incande. cent
lamps all over town, burned out last
Friday night about II o'clock, and not
until the new dynamo, which arrived
the same morning, is installed can the
city be again lighted. This is an acct
dent which has been expected by the
officials of the company for thirty days
and when it came last week there was
no surprise in store for them. AS a
matter of fact had there been coils of
wire on hand to rewind the old machine
until the new dynamo could have been
put up the city would only have been
deprived of lights for day. But such
was not the case. President Edward
Whitson telegraphed to Seattle for coils
but none could be had nearer than the
factory, New York City. Mr.. Whitson
is much disturbed in mind over the out
come and says that the new dynamo
which just came. was to have been here
last August. 1t was ordered last December
and the contract called for delivery here
in August. He says the machinery of
the power house has been overtaxed for
the last three months and the result is
only a natural consequence.
Work is going on night and day at the
power house and every effort is being
put forth regardless of the money ex.
pended, to once more get in working
order. THE HERALD reporter asked Mr.
Whitson if the people would have to pay
for lights during the next ten days or
whatever time they were deprived of
their use. He said, mo. Deductions
will be made from everybody's state
ment for the time found necessary to
deprive them of light" This is per-
fectly right and demonstrates the fact
that the officials of the company are en-
deavoring to treat the people fair.
The big dynamo weighs many tons
and on account of its immensely, the
work of installing it must necessarily be
very slow. One single piece weighs
$1,000 pounds. 1t is expected that when
the machinery is again put in action
there will be no more darkness to con-
tend with.
