In every flock of hens there Is GER
tain number of drones. hens which are
healthy looking and which eat every
thing one will feed them. Even during
the natural season for laying these
hens give one but few eggs. but eat
as ravenously as possible 1t is this
class of fowls that cut down the profit
from the poultry yard. 1t is estimated
that pnIlet, one hatched early. will
not pay for herself until she is eighteen
months old. If this is the case then it
naturally follows that she should be
carried through another winter in order
to make Il profit for her owner. The
longer we are in the poultry work the
firIner is our belief that too much inn
portance is given to the pullet and not
enough to the two-year-old hen. As
Stunning that an April hatched pullet
will begin laying in November and lay
through until molting time the follow
ing August it is plain that her next
period Of laying will be at a time when
eggs are high in price and the hen in
the best possible condition as to age to
produce them. Take good care OF the
hen that is getting through her first
melting season after she has begun to
lay. for she is the valuable hen of tho
fiock.-Commercia Poultry.

There wi be a vigorous if not violent
protest against the Panama treaty by the
Democrats in Congress In the Senate the
objections which they win endeavor to sus-
tain are q the wrestling of Panama from
Columbia was an inexcusable outrage for
which the President and his supporters are
responsible; (2) the canal can never be
probably constructed along that line
France having expended the enormous sum
of 1926, 600, 600 and the lives OF 10, 600 men
and having then given 1t up as bad job;
(3) it is probable that the French Canal
Company will in a few weeks incrf ase their
demand from $40, 600, 900 to $50 GOO, 600 on
the ground that the former agreement was
obtained by duress; (4) when the House
appropriated $10,O00.000 for country
called Columbia and the President arbi-
trarily writes Panama in the place Of Col
umbia, it closely resembles the process
which in commercial life is known as alter
ing check without consulting the drawer
of it; % for ten years the Nicaragua
route has been preferred by civil engineers
and pubicits, has been repeatedly recon-
mended by committees and Hepburn bill
providing for the construction of a canal by
the Nicaragua route passed the House by
only two dissenting votes. It will be held
that the President usurped the authority of
Congress in substituting the Panama route
for the Nicaraguan, and the most able and
conspicuous Democrats in both Houses are
willing to go to the people on this issue

The National Grange, at its last annual
meeting adopted resolution TO the effect
that rural mail carriers should receive as
much pay as city carriers. In his late re-
port, Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow recommended that the pay of rural
mail carriers be increased from $500 to
$3.50 per year. The justice of an increase
even to $3.50 is apparent to all who know
the expense and hardships of this service.

hindered by the obstructive barrier of

COMING BROTHERHOOD.

"Rool on. oh. slow-wheeled years,
And bring about the day
when men shall gather wealth to give
away,
And ,spring to help when tempted ma
ture falls,
AS when a builder drops from city
walls.
When to be good alone men shall be
bold.
And seek out suffering as men seek
for gold;
When Christian women shall not wipe
their feet
Upon their fallen sisters in the street,
And calumny shall be crime un-
known,
And each shall make his neighbor's
wrong his own.
''Begone, oh hate and war. begone!
Roll ON this way, oh Golden Age, roll
on
When men and angels face to face
shall talkl
And earth and heaven arm in arm
shall walk;
When Love shall reign,
And over sea and shore
The peace of God shall rest forever

CHINAMAN IN CIVIL WAR.

John c. Peau. Chinese resident
of Astoria, fought through the Civil
was in the Union army 1t is be-
lieved that he is the only Chinese who
regularly enlisted and remained in
service during the fighting. Peau is
now Ga years of age. His knowledge
of events of the war is as thorough
as that of the ordinary Grand Army
man, and although his memory is
rather poor. his recital is accurate,
says the Astorian.
Peau was born at Canton, China,
and came to America at the age of
IS. He first visited San Francisco,
but later went to New York where he
attended school. He adopted Amer
colony. a&H
During a vacation he visited Fort
Sumpter and CHANGED to be there
when the Confederates made the ini-
tial assault of the war of the rebellion.
The incident had the effect of making
Peau pro-union, and when President
Lincoln issued the first call for $4,000
volunteers Peau responded and be-
came Union soldier.
The company with which Peau en-
listed took part in the first great bat
tie of the war-Bull Run. Peau per-
sonally knew Colonel Baker of Ore
gon. who fell at Balls Bluff, and also
numbered among his acquaintances
Gen. L. S. Grant with whose army he
was connected at the time of Lees
surrender. After Bull Run Peau re-
enlisted with an Ohio company and
served from 1862 to 1865. He was
only slightly wounded although he
took part In several important en-
gagements.
In 1865 Peau came West and visit
ed Astoria. where there were but few
white inhabitants. He also went to
Portland and thence to Lewiston,
Idaho, where he engaged in the mer-
camille business for 10 years.
He passed through Spokane en-
route to the Kootenai country when
there was but one house at the
Eastern Washington metropolis He
has made several trips across the con-
tinent and numbers among his per-
scnal friends many prominent New
England people. He is the perma-
neat guest of Leong Zip, a wealthy
merchant of Astoria.

UTAH AND THE suLUs.

Before the hullabaloo over the
Smoot case has entirely subsidized and
interest in the subject of polygamy
died out 1t would be interesting to
know why so much has been made of
the polygamy in Utah and so little
OF the polygamy in the Sulus
The state government of Utah may
be to blame IL the laws are not en-
forced against polygamy in that state
The national government perhaps
cannot interfere. b
But In the Sulus the national gov
ernment of the United States has di-
rect jurisdiction. Not even the con-
stitution operates there to restrain
the national government from exer-
cising to the full its moral influence.
The whole people Of this country
may blush for the Mormon govern
