The COMING MAN.
"J. ii. s." Gives Political Points
In Telegram.

In view of the fact that the old
Mitchell machine has been iolted from
stem to stern by the invasion of the
Federal Grand Jury and the Democrats
several of it's stars ousted from Office and
the organization crippled into status of
apparent hors de combat, and all SEM
elance oil leader faded, the prophets
are inwardly wondering what is going
to happen along certain lines. This con-
dition brings up for speculation the fu-
ture political operations of Malcolm Adel-
bert Moody, Ex-member of Congress and
political rajah of The Dalles.
Thus far the man who makes politics
at the Emporium of Wasco County has
appeared in the role of sphynx. No
one. it appears, has glimmer of an idea
about what lis political plans are or
whether he has any. But that he has
some and that they will be heard from
in due course of time, is pretty safe
guess, many persons think. Malcolm
Adelbert Moody does not tell these
things in advance for the public audi
tory.
Three possible capacities have been
mapped out for the political future of the
Ex-Congressman. One is the United
States Senatorship, another the Guber-
material job for Oregon, and third Con-
gresham from the Second Disttict. Sell
dom do the prophets talk over the SEN
atorial matter that they do not link
Herewith the name OF Malcolm Adelbert
Moody, and that he may run for Cover
nor has been hazarded by men v ho think
they can see far ahead. 1t is also be-
lieved by some that he could be re-elect-
ed to Congress, in view of the stumbling
stones that have of late beset the path of
ohm Newton Williamson.
There must come forth some new man
to take the JOB of John Nipple Mitchell.
there must arise new
leader, Malcolm Adelbert Moody is am
bilious. Why, query the prophets.
might not the man OF The Dalles erect
himself as candidate for United States
Senator and make try for the prize ?
The next general state election will con-
struct new lines and Mr.. Moody will
doubtless lay low if it is his scheme to
attempt the Senatorial high dive.
In the event he is of the mind to run
for either Governor or Congressman from
the Second District, the wise ones are
looking for him to issue forth shortly.
The latter place would probably be the
easier of either, for the Anti-Moody |
5orces have been much upset by devel-
,pmsnts in the Williamson episode and |
Adelbert Moody was graceful i
oser at the last Congressional conven- :
ion and made no sore spots; when Dea-
,on Nathan Whealden, his envoy in
he convention, moved to make it un-
Inimous when the day was lost, and
shen not vote had been taken.
Be it observed that Malcolm Adelbert
1oody has some pretty strong friends
n divers parts of the state. In the
Meantime Malcolm Adelbert Moody is
he only one who knoas anything about
!. But there must be new leader from
omewhere.

PEACE TREATY SIGNED.
The Substance of Articles Briefly
Stated.

Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. s.
The Russo-Japanese war is
ended. Plenipotentiaries repre-
senting the emperors of Russia
and Japan affixed their signatures
to treaty of peace in the United
States Naval Stores Building
here at $50 O'Clock this after
noon, and the bloody struggle in
the Orient was of the past. The
engrossers were up most of the,
night putting the finishing
touches on the great paper. This
morning the members of both
missions were busy packing pre-
paratory to their departure this
afternoon. In order that they
could sign the protocol at the f.
nal sitting, the plenipotentiaries
left the hotel at two o'clock, ar
irving at the navy yard about
2:3o. The treaty was read close
ly in both the French and Eng
lisn texts and then signed. Tie
signing of the important docu-
ment was witnessed by but few
guests, principally American off,
cials.

treaty of peace contain the fol-
lowing provisions:

and friendly relations.

fuence in Korea, Russian sub
jects and enterprises to enjoy the

LAND FOR HOME-MAKERS.

At various intervals in the
history of the government laws
have been enacted for safe
guarding public domain. Was it
the intention of the trainers of
these laws that public lands be
taken and held as a speculation
for years? Certainly not. What
then, was the primary object of
these laws?
Beyond doubt the trainers of
the homestead law entertained
the idea that the public lands
filed upon by any individual
would be settled upon by said
party making the filing. The
thought was uppermost that they
would improve the lands thus ac-
quired, making permanent homes
thereon. It was intended that
the home builder, and no one
else, should become possessed of
these tracks of public domain.
These lands should be held,rigid-
ly for such parties as are honest
in their intention to build such
homes.
It does not seem hard to ascer-
tain with some degree of certain
ty parties likely to improve and
make a home of lands upon
which they may file. For in
stance, how many well-to-do bust
ness men of large cities would
leave their interests in town and
would go to the frontier and
build a home from the rough
Not being obliged to go, how
many city families would enter
tain such proposition -forego-
ing all the pleasure and excite
ment Of metropolitan life? And
yet we find many such people
holding homesteads.
It seems that any land Office
man could tell that men of the
class above mentioned did rot
calculate to live up to the. intent
of the homestead law-were
merely specializing on a sum-
mer's vacation when they ac-
quired their claims. In the past
many such city men of families
have made final proof on claims
that other members of their
household never saw.
Such men would lose money
were they to live up to the letter
Of the law. AS it is, they simply
rob some poor man of the oppor-
tunity to secure a homestead.
Is this right? So it is in many
other lines.
Men are every day violating
the timber and stone land laws;
forests are being exhausted by
unscrupulous spectators on
every hand. It is time the gen.
eral government gave serious
consideration to these condi-
tions. In the case of the home
steader, actual settlement should
be demanded, and if a man and
his family were absent from said
homestead beyond a certain
brief time they should forfeit
their right to the same. By
some such provision will the ends
of the homestead law be served,
and only by such means. Then
the country would be improved
in every way, and large tracts
of public domain settled as small
farms-the man of honest in
tention and industry would be in
the saddle and what is now an
uncultivated waste would soon
bloom as the rose.

Unmarked Graves of Revolutionary
Soldiers.

The Vermont Society, Sons Of the
American Revolution, at it's last an
nual meeting instructed the exec
utive committee to take meas
ures to obtain the benefit OF
the offer of the national
government to provide headstones
free of cost for the graves of Revo-
lutionery soldiers. The society de-
sires information regarding all such
graves that are UNMARKED, or where
the headstones are in bad condition.
While the government furnishes
the headstones free, and delivers
them at the nearest railway station
or steamboat landing, it will not set
them. TIE society therefore appeals,
through the newspapers of the state,
to all patriotic citizens for aid in OBJ
tanning authentic information re-
garding the unmarked graves OF
Revolutionary soldiers, and for
assistance in setting the headstones
when they are obtained.
If possible it should be stated in
what regiment or organization each
soldier served.
