Over the Result Of the Irrigation
Congress.
THE address of Judge 8. A. Lowell
of Pendleton, nominating the city Of
Portland for the 1905 meeting place
of the irrigation congress, was the
most inspiring flash of oratory heard
in the Ell Paso convention" said H. c.
willis, who has just returned from
Ell Paso.
"The speech of Judge Lowell won
more friends for Oregon and the
Lewis and Clark fair, than all the
literature distributed at the congress.
Idaho's representative had spoken for
81 minutes, and had shown some Bit
terness OF feeling toward Oregon, be-
cause of the rivalry between Boise
and Portland.
Judge Lowell spoke but IL min

Big Baby
Weighed ~ Pounds-But Every
thing is Big in Texas.

The third largest baby ever born
into this vale of tears, and BY far
the largest ever born in Texas, a
Denison dispatch says, was born in
Grayson county to Mr.. and Mrs.
John Owens who live three miles
west of Denison The baby is
girl and weighs 22 pounds. The
largest baby on record among the
doctors weighed at birth twenty
four pounds and three ounces, and
the second largest weighed twenty
three pounds. Little Miss Owens
is just two pounds and three ounces
short of the record. When it is
recalled that babies generally weigh
less than ten pounds at birth, il is
plain that Miss Owens is no pigmy.
She IS in superb health and has an
appetite that corresponds with her
size. The mother Of the child is
also doing well.

At The Opera House.

What the Corsicana Daily Sun
has to say of The Albert Taylor
Stock Company:
The popular actor, Albert
Taylor, opened his annual engsgc
ment in this city at the opera house
last night and was welcomed by a
tremendous audience. Each chair
was filed, the aisles were lined
with extra chairs and even stand
ing room was at a premium. The
play was "The Minister'S Love, I"
very strong story Of love and a
sacrifice. Mr.. Taylor appeared
as John Storm, the minister,
and gave his usual artistic and
finished performance which the
theater-goers of Corsicana have
learned to expect from this ac-
complished young actor.
"The supporting company is
large and very capable, including
Walter Mcmillan, an old Corsi-
cana boy, who was given a rousing
reception and who met the highest
expectations of his friends as Ho
ratio Drake.
The specialties were numerous
and very fine, the moving picture
of train robbery being the bes
ever shown on the local stage.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All

New York. Nov. 3.-There was a notable
subsistence of speculative interest in the
stock market, today. There was evidence
in the large operations of few firms
which are credited with doing business
for some of the powerful interests that
those interests are still taking a specula-
tive part in the transactions. But their
opel atiOns were confined to fewer stocks
and on smaller scale than for some
time past. The halt in the activity of the
market Is generally attributed to a pur-
pose to await the passing of the election.
market was largely confined to the iron
and steel industry. United States Steel
stocks were the most active of the group,
but some of the partly dormant stocks
made much better gains, Tennessee Coal

this strength, as is usually the case. ow

no sale for ladies' wheels. All OF US
can remember the many articles tnat
appeared some years ago commencing
the wheel, particularly to women as a
pleasant means of acquiring health
strength and grace. and there was
then no denial to the wheel its claims
of value to the sex in these particu-
lars. But its popularity must nave
been because it had the seal of fash

improving woman's health been con-
sidered it would be more popular to-

of the latter class of riders to make a

Out in Missouri they are discussing,
this fall, the plan of free text books,
and the voters will register their
opinion upon this proposition. election
day. Judging from the discussions go
ing on in some Of the st. Louis papers,
the people Of Missouri think that free
text books are an untried scheme. ana
that at the best.i it has not passed the
experimental stage in other states. As
a matter Of fact, there are no fewer
than a dozen states where children are
supplied with books by the state or
municipal governments, and IA others
states where the municipalities and the
supply books free of charge il they care
to take this step. The states of Della
ware, Idaho, Maine, Maryland, Massa-
chusetts. Nebraska, New Hampshire.
New Jersey. Pennsylvania. Rhode
Island, Vermont, supply all the books
used by the pupils in the public schools,
and in the states of Colorado, Connecti-
cut, Iowa. Kansas. Michigan, Minne-
sofa, Montana, New York. North
Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, West
Virginia and Wisconsin, the school
boards or municipal authorities have
authority from the state to furnish text
books free of charge at their discretion.
Philadelphia has had free text books
for almost 100 years, and in many other
great cities, Boston and New York, for
example, the system has prevailed for
many years. From these citations, it
is evident that there is nothing new or
experimental IN the idea of free text
books. No state or city having once
adopted it mas ever abandoned the
pclicy. 1t has worked well here in
Maine. and probably nobody wishes to
return to the old conditions. Not only
has the plan many educational advan-
tagcs hut it is a measure IF sound
business policy. Missouri will make no
if it takes this forward step
which so many of it's sister states in all
parts OF the Union have taken.
