DIFFIoULTIEs oF THn DEDICATION.

A very serious handicap is met by the Oklahoma and
Indian Territory delegation in Washington to pro
mote statehood The delegation Of the very best
that could be sent it is united in purpose thar
any delegation that has gone to Washington from these
territories is stronger many respects than any other
delegation in Washington But 10 is handicapped by the
omnibus nature Of the duplex statehood bill that
ing killed in the senate.
No matter how much the Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory may labor with senator behalf of state
hood for these territories as provided in the BILL
the work is all lost when the senator replies: Yes
that's all right; but am opposed to the provisions re-
garding Arizona and New Mexico" What is there to
be done in such demmag We are not sending dele

statehood and yet this il made the vital point issue
No answer be framed TO such opposition 1t must
be met with stoicsm, though the Oklahoma booster
may grit bis teeth in rage and disappointment the
unjust and unreasonable predicament in which he is
placed
There seems to be but one way in which the Oklaho-
and Indian Territory statehood lobby can reach the
issue, and that depends entirely upon the senate 1t is
division Of the bill that Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory stand upon their joint merits for state
hood. The senators have pledged statehood OF this
kind. The bill could easily pass while the statehood
delegation could drive its work home the target
Some agreement as this seems to be essential to
the admission Of territories and il it not done the
neglect will be of purposes for all the senator's ad

hood to Oklahoma and Indian Territory 1t is said in
diyduay and collectively, that these two territories de-
serve statehood Ii the omnibus bill cannot pass the
senate has for delaying justice where justice is
due and the responsibility for the defeat Of statehood
for our territories will be laid directly upon the senators

GOODNESS OF CALIFORNIA.
Produced by Strong Current from
Antarctic Ocean and Not
from Japan.

A great scientific mystery Of the Pa
eific ocean has just been solved, at least
theoretically. The experimental veri-
fcation will come later, or, perhaps the
new theory will be accepted or rejected
without other test than that of thor
ough discussion. of the facts on which
it rests, says Garrett P. Serviss. in Sue
cess.
The mystery in question relates to the
origin of the immense current Of cool
water which sweeps southwark along
our Pacific coast from Alaska to south
ern California, the antithesis in relative
temperature and in direction to the
gulf stream of the Atlantic coast, but
mightier than the latter in volume, and
modifying the land climates all along
its course to a greater extent, possibly.
than any other known ocean current In
short, this current is one of the great
est agents employed by nature in pro-
1ucing the famous climate Of the Pacific
coast The magnificent forests of Wash
ington and Oregon and the rich orchards
and vineyards OF California owe their
existence largely tc the influence of this
vast river in the sea, which flows swift
~ by the shore, tempering with its cool
ness the arid heats of summer, rolling in
vast mantles Of fog which distribute
moisture like the gentlest rain, and
mitigating the severity OF the winter
months with its equalizing influence, be-
cause, while the average temperature OF
the water is much below that Of the ad-
Joining land in the summer. It is consid-
erably above it in winter

after skirting the shores OF California. |
the great current spreads out over the
center Of the Pacific, touching the Ha-

influence is benefcently felt, with the
result that those islands enjoy more
uniformly agreeable and salubrious
climate than any other land lying in a
similar latitude
Now, in a general way, and without
much critical examination, geographers
and oceanographers have hitherto as
sumed that this Pacific current was an

A LIVING VALENTINE.

The queerest valentine delivered
and received in all Denver last Tues
day evening was live human baby
which was left upon the doorstep of
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. I. Brown, 3962 Lawr-
ence street.
On Tuesday evening as the family
was at dinner the door bell pealed
energetically. Here's a valentine for
you!" cried voice, but no attention
was paid to it. Again the door bell
pealed and when Mrs. Brown answer
ed she found bundle on the door
step while a voice from the darkness
repeated, TITS a valentine for you"
When opened, the bundle revealed
a blinking, pink-eyed little human val
entine. The child was apparently
about two weeks old.
The Browns already have five chill
dren Of their own. Another one
would stretch the little house to burst

keep It. News of their strange valen-
tine was noised about and in a short
time the child was adopted by kind
hearted eighbor.-Denver Post.

The possibilities of irrigation are
only becoming known to the people
of this country, yet irrigation is now
supplying the necessary moisture to
over 100000 acres in this country,
yielding crops valued at about $780,
100000 annually. When such
a substantial addition to the wealth
of the country can be made, the i'm
portance of the method becomes ap-
parent. And irrigation is only in its
infancy. 1t must not be thought that
irrigation only concerns the people
of the American deserts, and that
states that have . normal rainfall
can ignore the artificial distribution
of water. Irrigation is provided FOR

IT'S THE FARMERS MOVE.

The legislature has just appropri-
ated the sum of $25OO to be expended
in defraying the expenses of farmers
institutes, under direction of the ag-
ricultural college, in different parts
of the state.
Union county is to receive a benefit
from this wise move, at once. a
series of institutes will be held in that
county, beginning early in March
Some of the best lecturers in the state
are to be sent there, and the peril
nent, vital topics of farming and
stock raising are to be discussed by
practical farmers and experts, in pay
of the state. 1t is up to Umatilla
county farmers to secure a portion of
the benefits of this law.
1t is useless for newspapers and
commercial associations to promote
such movements. If the farmers are
not interested, it is useless for others
to interest themselves. 1t is the
farmers move now. The money is
awaiting their pleasure.
Last year the Commercial associa-
ton of this city organized and held
u farmers institute here, spending
about 500 in expenses for music and
preparations for tbs meeting. Five
of the best speakers on farm topics
in the Northwest were brought here
and every effort made to secure
large attendance of actual farmers.
The business men of the city paid the
expenses, the Commercial association
arranged the affair, the o. r. & N.
company furnished speakers free of
charge, and but few farmers showed
their interest by attending. This is
ging to the business men who
have always taken a deep interest in
such matters.
1t is now the farmers move.

WHAT DOES PORTLAND WANT?

Another "hotairfest'' is called by
the Portland CommevciaI club to meet
on April and and Eastern Oregon
Is urgently requested to be on hand.
What does Portland want, now?
What help from Eastern Oregon is
she now in need of?
Surely, unless there was some way
an which she could use the Eastern
Oregon towns to her own advantage
she would not invite them to meet in
1her midst. Her past promises have
been broken. Her rast pledges have
been ignored. Her past friendship
has proved to be the steel claw under
1he velvet touch.
50 what does Portland want now?
She promised a broad. equitable ir-
rigation law, which would prepare
the state for government reclamation.
She gave Eastern Oregon, at the last
moment a "scimpy" measure that
will be repellant to the government,
ahen considered in the light of the
great benefits Oregon will receive
from government irrigation.
She tried to whip every delegation
in the legislature in line for the divis-
ion of wasco and Union counties.

The old saying that YOU can fix a
mans principles more firmly through
his pocket than through his head is
borne out by thousands of facts. The
democratic party, as a whole, is OPP
posed to the tariff system, as iniqui-
tous and unjust to the consumer, but
Washington democrats who own saw
mills in the northern part of the state,
where Canadian lumber could be inn
ported at a great relef to builders
and homeseekers, are firm believers
in a prohibitive tariff on Canadian
lumber and the Texas democrats who
live near the Mexican border, where
the importation of Mexican cattle and
sheep would be greatly injured their
business are constantly clamoring for
a higher tariff on the Mexican stock.
Fundamental principles in these cases
are fixed, not by tue fathers of de-
mocracy, but by the danger of busi-
ness competition.

wheeling, w. va, May az, 1908.
Some years ago while at work, I fell
over truck and severely injured both
bf my shins. My blood became poisoned
as result, and the doctor told me /
would have running sores for life, and
that if they were healed up the result
would be fatal. Under this discouraging
report left off their treatment and re.
sorted to the use of S. S. S. Its effects
were prompt and gratifying. 1t took
Dnly short while for the medicine to en-
hrely cure up the sores, and 1 am not
dead as the doctors intimated, nor have
the sores ever broke out again. Some IL
years have elapsed since what I have de-
scribed occurred. Having been 80 signally
benefited by its use can heartily recon-
mend it as the one great blood purifier.
