HOWLONG9

~How long shall the present
Tariff remain on our statute
boo',s?" is a more or less inter-
esting inquiry that has come up
to US from sources in opposition
to present schedules and provis-
ions. It is probable that the
present Tariff will remain in the
country's big books just so long
as its results are beneficial to the
American workingmen, just so
long as it seems to furnish the
motive power for the great mills
and factories and mines of the
Republic, just so long as it pro-
vides prosperity to the American
farmer and farm, just so long as
1t provides for a profitable market
at nome and abroad, just so long,
in fact, as it serves the purpose
for which it was intended by the
Republican statesmen and Re
publican sentiment that made
possible its enactment. Ameri-
can men may differ on almost
every proposition that comes be-
fore them for consideration, but
they do meet and join hands on
one common ground and that is a
willingness and desire for con-
ditions that make for prosperity
and profitable activities. .---Adrian

Another Oregon Triumph.

There are many things found
in Oregon that may we'll cause
native pride to come to the sur
face. Among the things Oregon
excells in is apples and pears.
An item appeared recently in the
Oregon Journal that is worthy OF
a reprint, as follows:
A farmer and fruit-grower iiv-
ing near Bedford received tele-
graphic word last week from a
New York commission house that
a car load OF Comic pears had
sold in that city at $7.7o TO So 10
per box, averaging s6 80, and
that the carload, consisting of
1000 half-boxes, had brought
$3,42o, the highest price ever
received in that city for a car load
of pears. This is a big adver-
tisement for the Rogue River
Valley, and the shipper, J. W.
Perkins, not only gets large re-
turns for his fruit, but becomes a
benefactor of that whole region
and of Oregon. Other orchard
lists of that part of Oregon are
also aiding it in gaining high
reputation in the East. car load
of Bartlets being recently sold
having averaged S. per box
and car load of Beurre d'Anjou
FOR IS. 3o per box, at auction sale
IN New York. Mr.. Perkins,
however, used half-boxes, hold
ing 2o pounds of fruit each, and
made from clean No. I lumber.
He used Autographed paper and
labels on the boxes, fancy lace
paper border and Autographed
top mat. All this cost something
but it paid, for appearances count
for much with those able to buy
the best They are willing to
pay for style. OF course great
care was also taken in the Sc
lection and packing of the fruit,
and the result was the fanciest
and highest priced car load of
pears ever sent to New York
City. Another Southern Oregon
horticulturalist also holds the re-
cord of a car load of fulI-box
fruit though it is not up to this
shipment of half boxes.
These incidents ought to stim-
ulate all orchardists in that region
and of the whole state to the ex-
ercise of enterprise, vigilence,
and the utmost care in the pro-
duction and packing of fruit.

Saturday afternoon. Hotze and
Eddy were hunting and had
separated. The young man
thought his companion was be-
hind him, and seeing stir in the
bushes ahead, fired. The cries
OF the victim of the mistake soon
made 1t known. Hotze FASTENED
to the scene and did what he
could for the wounded man bv
laying him in an easy position
and bolstering his head up with
coat. Then he started to the
nearest creek, some distance away
to get a drink of water for Eddv.
who complained of intense thirst.
He reached the river but was
unable 10 find his way back. He
searched for several hours, and
finally, as darkness approached,
started for help. They had been
camped in deserted cabin in
the region, and the nearest house
was four miles away. Hotze
reached 1t late at night, almost
exhausted, and painted out his
fearful tale.
Assistance was summoned from
Nehalem, and a party started out
in search before daylight. About
eight O'Clock they found the
dead body where Hotze had left
it IN search of water. Eddy had
been shot through the hip and
his wound in any event would
probably have been fatal.
Hotze is almost distracted, be-
cause he. deems himself respons1-
BILE, not only for Eddy's death,
but for the untold agonies which
he must have suffered before
death relieved him.
Eddy and Hotze came here
from Lents few days ago. Ed
dy practiced magnetic healing
there, and had resided in that
vicinity about seven months,
coming from Yaquina Bay, where
his father is still residing. The
dead man was a widower, and
had no family living. He served
at one time in the Army, and
was pensioner on the disability
list. He was about 81 years old,
and his companion, was much
younger.

WELL BACKED.

When the government of the
United States undertakes any
proposition it is pretty certain
to move. What the government
promises its citizens may be
relied upon implicitly. On the
the other hand, it seems that the
government is exacting more of
its people now than at some
times in the past. Corruption,
just at present, is not much in
fashion in governmental circles.
The part played by the govern
ment in the recent past will have
"a salutary effect on many to
whom the task of withstanding
temptation is hard.
Under the date of October %,
the following dispatch was sent
throughout the land from Wash
lugtOn, D. c.:
Two towns, for which the United
States Government will act as sponsor,
will be created next month in Southern
adahe. On sites which now are an abso-
4ute desert waste Names already have
been chosen for them-Heyburn for the
first, which official% is to be created
November IA, and Rupert for the second,
which is to be created one week later.
dhe towns will be seven miles apart.
Sales of town lots will be conducted
under Government auspices on the DAYS
the towns are created. The lots will be
sold to the highest bidder. While the
see'ntrv is now desert waste, it is ex-
peeted that the great irrigation canals
which the Government is constructing at
a cost of $4,000, 900 viii make it very
productive. The towns are located on
the recently constructed branch of the
Oregon Short Line Railroad.
Thus we find the government
standing sponsor for cities of
der own creation. Beyond doubt
there is good reasons for estab-
fishing these towns. Of course,
this is something out of the Or
-dlnary, but the fact that ''Uncle
Sam" is back Of the towns, to a
certain degree, will cause more
of a boom to these townsites
than any other thing we can
fancy. The confidence the peo-
pie nave in those holding the
relns of the government and the
knowledge that the govern
mental authorities would not will
i1ngly delude the citizens, will act
as a greater incentive to a stam-
pede for Hepburn and Rupert,
Idaho, next month than if these
places were scenes of gold
strikes.
We look to sae Hey urn and

as it were-almost as mush-
rooms. Beyond doubt here will
be an opportunity for some le-
gitimate speculation.

A Few Points About
: Leather Botto111ed
.-. Rubber Boots
g 3

Up to the time of placing the
Rubberhide Boot on the market
all of the Leather Bottomed Rub
Der Boots were made by mailing
the bottoms to the rubber upper.
The nails are driven through
both leather and rubber, punctur-
ing the rubber with two rows of
holes from the heel to the toe.
Water will work in between the
leather and the rubber, and find
ing the openings thus made by
the nails, are sure to leak.
The Rubberhide Boot is made
by lasting the upper under the
foot for an inch, all around the
bottom up to the middle sole. The
upper and rubber welt sole are
joined by vulcanizing them toge-
ther, forming a union that re-
sists the hardest wear. It has a
heavy leather inner sole.
The sole leather, which is thor
oughly waterproofed, is stitched
to the rubber welt sole; this makes
an absolutely water-tight boot,
and one that will not leak.
It is impossible for the water
to get into the boot except over
the top. For honesty of con-
struction, comfort and durability,
the Rubberhide Boot is without
an equal.

NORMAN BEHAVED JUST AWFUL
Landed Off Spokane Train in the
Pendleton Jail.

When the Spokane train arrived
last night it bore one passenger which
the conductor was sorry he had and
the same feeling was doubtless shared
by the passengers. The name of the
particular traveller is Elmer Norman.
the city Jail. Norman was drunk.
and by his conduct greatly disgusted
those on the train by his behavior on
the road in. When the train arrived
at the depot Norman refused to leave,
and was left in the car while the mar
shal was summoned. Before the lat
ter arrived Norman had broken out
two of the windows of the car by
putting his head through them. This
method was bad for his head and as
a result he was considerably cut over
the right eye and on both cheeks.
Norman was finally taken from the
car and given quarters in the city Jail.
On the road he bled so that a CORY
trail marks the route over which he
was taken.
On being presented in the recorders
office this morning Norman pleaded
guilty to the charge of disorderly
conduct. and was sentenced to five
days in Jail by the recorder, or to
pay fine OF $40. Not being able to
pay the fine ne was returned to the
jail.

SEVEN VACANCIES
RESULT OF THE RECENT
TEACHERS EXAMINATION
Superintendent Welles Advises Vigor-
ously Against Teaching on Permits,
rs IL Complicates the School Situa-
tion-Teachers and Boards Are
Equally Negligent and Culpable.

This morning it was ascertained
that of the Is teachers who failed to
pass the recent examination seven of
that number are now teaching
schools. or have schools engaged.
Consequently. there will be that many
vacancies to be filled within the
county.
Apropos of the present situation in
this county in regard to teachers, Su-
perintendent Welles this morning Sc
cerely criticised teachers and direc-
tors for allowing sucI a condition to
come about. Among other things, he
said:
"One OF the worst abuses is the
employment of SO many teachers who
have no certificates and are teaching
on permits. Teachers of this class
can only be employed for portion
of a term, as the permit expires when
an examination is held. They are
then compelled to be away from their
schools several days while taking the
examination. and sometimes, as in the
present case. they are forced TO give
up their schools in the midst Of a
term through failure to pass the ex-
animation"
The situation this year was partly
excusable owing to the fact that there
was a scarcity of teachers in the
county last fall. and many came in
from the outside and were forced to
use permits But in Mr.. Welles' opin-
ion this could all have been avoided
had the boards started to engage
their teachers soon enough.
Superintendent welles is of the be-
lief that when teacher is engaged
a written contract should be made,
and that the teacher should be en-
ployed for the entire year. To do this
would necessitate the holding Of GER
tificate by the teacher.
1t would be well for teachers hold
ing certificates If they would take
the examination held six months pre-
vious to the expiration Of their GER
tificates. in Mr.. welles' view. for by
30 doing they would have chance
