Has Work To Do.

Prof. w. A. Henry, of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, who recently
made a tour of the Willamette val
ley in the interest of agriculture
and for the purpose of visiting the
various colleges, bad the following
to say of the O. A. G. and her
duties:
Your experiment station has a
good reputation back East among
kindred institutions, and no college
has a greater work to perform than
yours. Much that is useful and
helpful in other institutions will
not avail for Oregon agriculture.
You have peculiar problems in
your agriculture which can only
be successfully solved by your own
station. 1t must work them out.
I sincerely hope the business men
will join with the farmer and make
common cause in advancing scien-
tific agriculture in Oregon. Every
body is interested in the success
and advancement of the agricul-
ture of this region. In the East
the governors of the states of Wis
consin, Michigan, Illinois and In
diana all commented on the work
of their agricultural colleges and
experiment stations in their last
annual messages. I mention this
to show how matters are changing
with sus-and l ana sure they will
change with you in the same way.

Record Your Deed.

Many unrecorded deeds of real
property can be brought to light
at almost a moments notice
People seem to be either very
ignorant of the law or very care
less. This negligence or igno-
rance or whatever it may be
termed, may prove expensive in
the long run. There is law
which reads that deeds, to be
valid, must be recorded within
FIVE days from the date of con-
veyance of same.
On page 1864, Hills Anno-
tated Laws of Oregon, 1887, is
an article which reads: every
conveyance of real property with
in this state hereafter made which
shall not be recorded as provided
in this title within five days
thereafter shall be void against
any subsequent purchaser in
good faith and for a valuable
consideration of the same real
property, or any portion thereof,
whose conveyance shall be first
duly recorded"
For instance, A sells a parcel
of land to B, and B fails to have
the deed recorded within five
days. On the sixth day after the
transaction between A and B, c
chances to meet A and asks him
if his property is for sale. Know
ing that No record of the convey
ance had been made, A sells the
same land to G. The latter acts
in good faith throughout the mat
ter and Immediately has his deed
recorded. The property belongs
to c according tolaw. Of course,
B may bring action against A
for damages, but like any law
suit, the outcome would be diff
cult to foretell.
On the same page OF Hills
Laws for 1897 is note which
reads: can unrecorded deed is
effective as between parties hav-
ing actual notice, and as to them
it carries title. The statute ap.
plies only in favor of parties act
ing in good faith, and subse-
quent deed with notice of a prior
unrecoroed deed passes no title
whatever.
On the same page is note re-
ferring to the matter of several
conveyances, which reads as fol-
lows: "Where neither of several
conveyances is recorded within
the FIVE days here provided, the
one which is first recorded will
prevail. "-Fleschner VS.. Sump-
ter, IL Or. I6I.
1t is possible that there may
be later laws bearing on this mat
ter, but we are not informed of
them and several of the county
officials whose duties bring them
into close relation with this SUBJ
ject are of the opinion that the
above citations are of the laws at
present in force. So it will
readily be seen that to be on the
safe side in any event, it is an
act of wisdom to have an irnme-
diate record made of a property |
that may be acquired.

In his remarks Friday morn

Kinney, "when the government
will recommend the adoption OF

offered for revenue, he could have
had the method patented and
reaped rich reward" d"

SHELDON WITHDRAWS
FROM NEW YORK FIGHT
Leaves the Field CIear-Stands Aside
Because of Stories Circulated
About Him.

SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 24.-At 2
o'clock this morning Gov. Oden came
from Mr.. Platt's cottage and announce
ed that George r. Sheldon had with
drawn from the race for lieutenant
governor.
Gov. Odell reached here at 800
o'clock. 1t was suggested to him that
he go at once to the Orange county
headquarters, but he replied: mo, I
will go at once to Senator Platt.''
Senator Platt, Gov. Odell and Mr..
Sheldon were in conference for a pc
Rod of two hours. At 2 o'clock Gov.
Odell left the room and announced that
Mr.. Sheldon had withdrawn from the
contest. At this late hour the indica-
tons are that Senator Frank A. Hig-
gins, Of Cattaraugus, will be the nomi-
nee for lieutenant governor. The an
nouncement Of the withdrawal of Mr..
Sheldon from the contest was greeted
with hearty cheers by crowd of near
ly 800 delegates, who had waited anx-
iously for the conclusion Of the con-
ference between the leaders.
Gov Odell stated after the confer
ence that the discussion throughout
had been Of a most pleasant character.
He said that after the situation had
been considered with several, Of the
leaders Senator Plat and Mr.. Sheldon
retired to a rear room and discussed
the matter. Mr.. Sheldon was finally
convinced that it was to the best in
terests Of the party that he withdraw
from the contest in view of the fact
that the numerous stories current,
whether true or not, would prove dis
advantageous to the best interests Of
the party.
