The Booth Case.

The Board of Supervisors at its re-
cent session rescinded the resolution
adopted at it's last January session
authorizing an attorney upon his own
application to appear before the Gov
enor in opposition to any application
that might be made for executive
clemency in behalf Of John W. Booth.
This action Of the Board was taken
for two very important reasons.
First, that the Board had no author
ity to appropriate the public money
for any such purpose and that it had
been deceived in regard to its duty in
the matter.
And second, because no reputable
person In the county can point to any
single act in the life of j. W. Booth,
all of which has been in this county,
but that has been in harmony with
the moral law. obedient to the laws
OF his country, good member of the
community promptly responding to
its requirements.
The editor of the PLAIN DEALER
has been a resident of this county 46
years, he has known John w. Booth
from his boyhood days to the present
time and from that acquaintance and
our knowledge of the man don't be-
lieve any act of his life warranted the
verdict of the jury against him. The
witnesses against him almost without
exception were of doubtful reputa-
tion for truth and ..veracity, and the
testimony of the most important of
them in behalf of the state would
have been rendered q worthless
through rigid inquiry as to their
credibility. This the attorneys for
defence did not do because they
thought the state had made SO flimsy
a case that it was unnecessary. II
addition to this the Supreme court
says the trial court gave an instruc-
tion to the jury which should not
have been given and refused one which
Should have been given. The supreme
court in affirming the judgment of
the court below, frankly intimates
that from the evidence, as jurors it is
doubtful that they could have found
the verdict rendered.

Time Again Here.

The time is here again when some
of you need some winter pastime, and
to educate your children so that they
will pass in society with their associ-
ates. In this line, Geo. @. Will, the
Salem music dealer, keeps reliable
stock of pianos, organs, musical in
struments, sheet music and studies.
AS his goods are shipped in the most
modern way, that is, pianos and
organs shipped in carload lots are
harnessed, not boxed, saving price of
boxes and freight on same, people
coming in often think prices on we'll
known goods are so low that he is
often asked if they are secondhand.
Having been in business now 25
years, he has learned to select line
OF goods that will suit careful buyers.
All instruments sold by Mr.. Will are
attended to free of charge. By fair
treatment Of his customers, he has
made friends that help him, and this
is the cause Of his rapidly increasing
trade. His store is at 2S1 Commercial
street, opposite Bush's bank, in Salem.

DEATH VISITS HOME
Little Rudolph Polling Succumbs to
An Attack of Typhoid Fever.

The death angel visited the home Of
DR.. and Mrs. Q. @. Polling, Tuesday,
and claimed their bright little s-year-
old son, Rudolph. The boy had been
sick with that dread disease, typhoid
fever, for several weeks, and the
nature Of the attack was such as to
battle medical skill and the most care
ful nursing. Although suffering
greatly, he made brave fight for his
life, and during all the long weeks Of
his sickness was cheerful and un-
complaining. He retained conscious
ness until a few hours before his
death. Rudolph was bright, happy
boy, and general favorite with his
playmates. His death is a sad blow
to the family.
Brief funeral services were held at
the house Wednesday afternoon, and
on Thursday morning the remains
were taken to Dayton, where they
were tenderly laid away in the family
burial lot.

Labor Day was appropriately
observed in Dallas. The exercises
lasted from 7 a. m. until 6 p. M,
and consisted principally Of pick
ing hops, hauling wheat, saving
lumber, building houses, digging
waterworks bitches, ballasting track
on the new railroad, grading the
courthouse square, and getting
prune driers in readiness for opera
ton. Instrumental music was
furnished at the opening and clos
ing Of the program by the steam
whistles at the sawmill, planning
mill, tannery and Touring mill.
Five hundred happy young Ameri-
cans rendered chop check" chorus
with all the strength of their
vigorous lungs. A large crowd Of
people enjoyed tin pail lunch at
the noon hour. The exercises were
pleasant and profitable throughout.

There will be no more engines on
the main line of the Southern Pacific
Railroad passenger trains burning
wood. The engine that pulled the
overland to Portland on Monday eve
ming was the last one. That engine
was taken to the shops and will be
converted into a coal burner. The
freight engines on this section of the
road, and the engines on the branch
lines, most Of them, will burn wood
for time yet--a few of them, possibly,
for long time. But there will be no
more wood cinders to get into the eyes
of the passengers on the main line. 1t
was rumored in railroad circles that
the Albany local was to be drawn by
an oil burner. But this will not be
for the present. The engine drawing
this train will burn coal. The coal
will come from Bellingham Bay, in
Washington, until a more convenient
supply may be had. 1t is likely that
oil burners will finally be put on this
as on the California and
other southern sections of the road.
Some of the engines burning oil now
come as far north as Ashland, and a
tank for the storing of crude oil will
soon be established there. So far the
oil is secured there from tank cars

GOOD HARVEST WEATHER
Hop and Prune Picking Progressing
Under Favorable Conditions.

The weather Of the past week has
been favorable to harvesting opera
tions, and the hop and prune crops
are being saved in good shape. Some
of the hop men have had considerable
difficulty in securing pickers, a state
of affairs that has caused them much
anxiety. Several of the smaller crops
have beengfnished, however, and it is
believed that pickers will be more
plentiful from this time on. The
middle or last Of next week Will see
the end Of the picking season in Polk
County. The growers have begun
baling their hops and hauling them
to the warehouses. No samples have
as yet, been pulled from any of the lots
around Dallas, but it is the general
opinion among hop men that the crop
will be OF excellent quality. It is too
early In the season to make reliable
estimate Of the number Of bales that
will be produced in Polk County, but
the yield so far has fallen slightly be-
low the usual average.
Three or four of the big prune
evaporators are already in operation,
and the drying season will be fairly
on by the first of next week. The crop
OF Italians is unusually fine this
year, the trees being heavily laden
and the fruit running we'll to the
larger sizes. The drying season will
last until early in October.
