date set for the state convention. The
Hearst supporters in Iowa are practi-
calIy identical with those of Bryan
while the opponents include substan-
TALLY all those who oppose Bryan and
his ideas. The anti-Hearst people are
not supporting anyone for the presi-
Dental nomination, but are bending
their energies solely to defeating the
movement to have the state convention
instruct for the New York newspaper
man. Prior to the assembling of the
convention today the Hearst faction
expressed confidence in the result and
claimed that there is no question but
that the delegation from Iowa to the
st. Louis convention will be instructed
for their candidate.

SUIT sPoNeINe AND PRESSING
Verbal Agreement Regarding Rental of
Premises Is Cause of Severe Com
nents During Trial.

NORTH YAKIMA, May Awhile
hearing the case of Steward against
Jewell Saturday, Judge Rudkin made
the statement that more perjury had
been committed in this county during
the last two years through verbal
agreements than anything else that has
come before the courts in years. The
atcion of Steward versus Jewell was
brought to GUST the defendant from
building rented from the plaintiff. A
verbal agreement had been entered into
between the parties, and the judges
came after the hearing the evil
dence. He said their method of doing
business was very loose. He did not say
that in this case there was evidence OF
perjury, but said that the testimony
was at such a variance that someone
was badly mistaken.

DRY IN THE VALLEY
Rain and Wind Causes Damage to
Growing Crops In Eastern
Oregon.
(Government Crop BuIIetin.l

During the past week the rainfall
in the eastern sections Of the State has
been ample, and in some limited areas
it has been excessive and attended by
high winds and hail, which have done
considerable damage to the crops
lying within the tracks of these
storms. In the western section Of the
State drought continues and no rain
Of consequence has occurred since
June End, except in some of the coast
counties and the high level sections
Of Southern Oregon, where local rains
have fallen and greatly improved late
crops
Fall wheat is filling nicely and its
harvest will become general This week.
Fall barley is also maturing and
promises to yield above the average.
Early sown spring grain is ripening
and fair crop will be harvested.
Late sown spring wheat in the Will
lamette valley is very poor; some of it
has already been cut for hay and
some will not pay to cut even for this
purpose. Good rains within the next
few days will help some fields of late
sown spring wheat, but most of it is
too far advanced to be benefited, and
this part of the wheat crop, which,
fortunately, comprises but small
proportion of the whole, is considered
a failure. Oats are heading short
and yields below the average are ex-
pected. Corn is doing fairly we'll.
Pasturage is drying up. Stock
generally keep in good condition, but
there is falling off in the flow of
milk among the dairy herds. Haying
is nearly finished, and the crop,
although light, was secured in ex-
cellent condition.
Hops, potatoes and gardens are un-
even; where rain has fallen they are
doing we'll; where drought prevails
they are from poor to good, depend |
ing upon their cultivation and the |
of the soil for retaining
moisture.
Peaches are beginning to get ripe
and fair crop will be picked. The
cherry season is drawing to close,
and the yields we're much better than
expected.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1904-07-15
ALONG THE WILLAMETTE
Hops Are Light, But Quality VIII
Be Excellent.

Crop conditions in Eastern Polk
county are described by the Indepen-
dence correspondent to the Portland
Journal as follows: "Old settlers
here state that they do not remember
time when it has continued SO long
without rain during this part of the
year. Crops generally are not in good
shape. Hops will be light, but grow
ers prophesy an excellent quality Of
hop.
''The hops are arning out much
better than was at first predicted, and
those farmers and hop men who culti-
waited thoroughly their hops and land
generally, and are continuing the
same method now, have much better
prospects for good crop than those
who are not plowing and cultivating
deep, and packing the soil so that the
moisture raises near the surface.
'The hay crop is most all harvested,
and the crop, though short to a certain
extent, averages far better than was
predicted. Spring sown grain is look
ing very poor, and oats and wheat
and other crops will mostly be cut for
hay. A good rain will do no damage
now, and some of the hop men state
that it would be of great help to their
crops of hops, and there is no question
but that it would do much good to the
spring crops Of every kind. "

used is ordinary tiling and the water
soaks away before reaching the ditch.
There is no offensive odor, even when
the top is taken off the tank. All
sewerage from the premises passes
through the tank. s.ssss ..'s M es
The largest septic tank in that
vicinity is that in use at Chemawa.
This tank is about Is by 80 feet and
eight feet deep. The walls and bottom
are OF concrete, but the roof is of wood.
All the sewerage from the school,
where 600 persons live, is turned into
this tank. AT the outlet stream OF
clear water runs continually, and
there is no odor that can be detected.
Inside the tank there is only very
slight odor Though this tank has
been in use about year, there is very
little solid deposit in the bottom Of the
tank.
At the asylum farm the sewerage
was formerly drained into low place
in a field near the road, and it became
very offensive to the travelling public
About a year ago septic tank was
constrd ed and all the sewerage was
turned llto it. All that comes out of
the tank is clear, odorless liquid,
and upon examination it was found
thatin course of year less than an
inch of solid matter had accumulated
in the bottom Of the tank. Very little
odor can be detected at the top of the
tank when the lid is removed. Ex-
perience with this tank was so salts
factory that septic systems have been
built at the Reform School and the
Blind School.
