CIoudbnrst in Baker County.

Saturday last, at about ZIP. m., one
of the most severe transforms, or
what might properly be called a
cloudburst occurred in the vicinity
of the Bowen farm south of the city,
and covered the small area from the
Bowen farm to the Vaughn ranch,
formerly the Wynn place, on Elk
creek. The fall of water was so
great that the ground was covered
to the depth of several inches. Some
damage was done to the grain land
on the Vaughn place by debris. Per-
sons who were caught in the storm
say it was the worst they ever ex-
perienced.-Baker City Democrat.

PROCEEDINGS OF IRRIGAroRs
Report of the Ell Paso Irrigation
Meeting Now Out.

The volume of Official proceed
ings" of the 18th National Irrigation
Congress is now being distributed.
The congress met at Ell Paso last No
vember.
The volume is well arranged and
well edited. 1t contains 442 pages,
and is indexed. The book is min
ature encyclopedia of irrigation and
forestry, containing condensed state
ments of the latest developments in
farming by irrigation, in the me-
chanics and construction, and in tree
planting. Every person interested in
any phase of the irrigation and for
estry problems should possess this
volume, for there is nothing in print
approaching it for the variety and
authority of it's contents in the
branches named.
The book opens with a stenographic
report of the actual proceedings of
the congress, with all the briefer ad-
dresses and extempore remarks. Skill
full editorial condensation has added
to the interesting character of this
part of the book, for the brevity and
conciseness of most of the addresses,
especially those by experts in various
lines make them easy and profitable
reading for unemployed minutes.
The record of the delegates shows
that delegates were present repre-
senting 29 states, territories and for
eign countries. Delegates appointed
by state governors and foreign rulers
were present from 81 political divis-
ions. The mayors of SO cities ap-
pointed delegates who were in at
tendance. Commercial organizations
and irrigation associations to the
number of los were represented by
special delegates in attendance at the
congress. Altogether, over 500 ac-
credited delegates were in attendance

chasing lumber and supplies with
which to build a stock dipping vat
on his sheep ranch, 23 miles southeast
of Pendleton. He will build a mod
ern, up-to-date vat and be prepared
to dip his stock regularly, believing
that it pays to dip sheep twice a
year whether they show signs of dis
ease or not, as the dipping kills the
ticks and cleanses the fleece and
makes a more salable grade of wool
beside keeping the sheep in a healthy
condition.

Chain Gang is PeOnage.

Augusta, Ca, April 5.--The
Federal grand jury today, in a
special report, endorsed Judge
Emory Speer's views on peonage,

his charge to the grand jury in
the United States court at Sa-

ing the peonage question spoke OF
the men condemned to the chain
gang for violation of petty NUM-

For myself I do not hesitate

light of the decision of the Su-
preme Court of the United States.

Resurrection In Richmond County.

Laurinburg correspondent Of
the Charlotte Observer writes the
following interesting article to
his paper:
".Apropos the death of Senator
Rowell Hawley, Of Connecticut,
on yesterday, there is an interest
ing story being told here to the
effect that his mother was sup
posed to have been dead once and
was buried, and that after her
burial some robbers went to her
grave, dug her up and we're help
ing themselves to her jewelry,
when one of them in taking a ring
from her finger, caused her to
have a conscious spell and they
discovered that she was not dead.
In their fright they left her and
some neighbors in passing discov-
cred her condition and took her to
her home. It was after this that
young Joseph Hawley was born.
The old Stevartville plantation
On which the Senator was born is
now owned by Mr.. Henry W.
Malloy, of Wilmington, a son-in-
law of Squire Peter McRae, of
this place. Our older citizens give
the above story as authentic"
That such an occurrence really
happened is not to be doubted
but Mrs. Hawley was not the lady
who figured in it. The above
peculiar circumstances attended
the supposed death and burial Of
a Mrs. Lindsay, and the chic
afterwards born was ordained g
Presbyterian minister. This oc.
curence was many years previous
to Senator Hawley's birth.-Laur'

Al Absent Minded Drummer.

"Do you see that dignifed per-
son walking across the Office with
this satisfied expression spread
over his face?" remarked Chief
Clerk McDormott at the St.
Francis Hotel last evening. He
travels for one of the biggest con-
Germs in Michigan and is the most
forgetful man on the road. He is
so absent-minded that he loses
his watch or his pocket-book
about every day in the week, but
always gets it back again. He
was working the small towns over
Ill San Joaquin the other day and
his train hit Lathrop at the noon
hour.H He had 10 minutes forlunch,
SO he climbed up on a stool, placed
his watch in front of him on the
counter SO he would not eat over
time, and when his time was up
rushed out and caught his train.
When he reached Modesto he
missed his watch. He couldn't
get back to Lathrop until 5
o'clock the following morning.
Arriving there at that hour, he
dashed madly into the lunch
Don aud asked for his watch.
They found it where he had left
it on the lunch counter, covered
by a pile of doughnuts. Lucky
fellow that. San Francisco

JUDGES UNFAIR TO THE GOVERNOR.
Sentences Are Imposed and Then the Chief
Executive Appealed TO For Pardons.

Governor Glenn devoted some
time Yesterday to the consldera-
tion of a number of applications
for pardons, but made no II
nouncement of any action in
either of them. La conversation
with a number of gentlemen he
declared that he feels very much
yexed at the course that is being
pursueued by a. number of supe-
rior court Judges in that they will
preside over the courts and pass
judgments on prisoners convicted,
sentence them to terms in the
penitentiary or on the public
roads, (often times to good 4ong
terms) and then a few months
later write long and beseechlng
letters to the governor asking that
the prisoner be pardoned. The
governor says that is not treating
the governor CT the state right.
If the sentence is too severe 1t
ought never to have been lmpos-
ed, aud he is snxious that the
judiciary Of the state will change
this manner Of procedure and I'M
pese only sucA sentences as should
stand for the full service of the
term and net appeal for executive
elemency 90 undo sentences they
have imposed. It took seven
wears for the colonies to get from
under the heel of King George and
he wanted the farmers to fight
even if it took seventy years to
overthrow King Bear.-Raligh

Conscience.

Rev. DR.. J. P. McFerrin, one of
the Oldest and most eloquent d.
vines of the Southern Methodist
church, says the Charlotte Chron-
icle, delivered a sermon in Nash
Vile, last Tuesday evening, on
"Conscience." DR.. McFerrin
said:
ga guilty conscience will not
allow a man to think cool]y on
any subject, or to reach a, conclu-
sion. Its presence is ever felt and
it follows one like a grim shadow.
The lesson I have read is concern
ing Herod.
HE was known throughout
Palestine for cruelty, and espe-
cially for his antipathy to the
Christ, whom he supposed would
usurp his throne.
HE had killed John the Bap-
tist over the whim of a woman,
while feating in his palace, yet
the deed weighed on his mind, and
kept al impress there that could
not be shaken off. C%onscienc &c
has the power to disturb the King
in his palace feasting and attract
the attention of his mobiles.
"Seme people live their whole
lives through with an ever-present
dread lest their sins find them out
and they be exposed. Some go
down to their grave bearing with
them the conscientiousness of
evil, which they have borne in
their hearts through the passing
years. | would dread to face God
and eternity. with a guilty con-
science"

CURRENT COMMENT,
The Statesville Landmark

The Statesville Landmark says
that, "speaking of 'ciope' (fo1
crept), drug (for dragged) },
'clunt' (for cleaned), etc, a sub
scrlber writes the Charlotte Oh
server to know about 'skunt.
'Skunt' is good and more common

App0mattox.

Today at Appomattox was un-
yelled a monument designed to
perpetuate the deeds of the North
Carolina soldiers in the civil wsr,
which was brought to a close there
forty years ago. The carved stone
tells what manner of soldiers they
were. As to North Carolina's
claims that her soldiers were last
at Appomattox, it might not be
inappropriate here to copy four
reasons ID substantiation given by
Major Henry A. London:
81. A North Carolinian, Major
General Bryan Grimes planned
the last battle fought there and
commanded the infantry engaged
therein, the greater part of which
were North Carolina troops.
r'2. A North Carolina brigade,
commanded by General W. R..
Cox, made the last volley of any
organized body Of Confederates
Immediately proceeding the sur
render.
SO. A detachment of North
Carolina troops from the Fourth
and Fourteenth Regiments did
the last fighting Of any infantry
after the withdrawal of the main
body of the infantry.
Il. North Carolina troops
(Roberts' brigade of calvary
captured the last cannon that
were captured by the Army of
Northern Virginia."
The fighting there, too, was done
when North Carolinlans knew their
cause was lost. "Those Confed-
crate soldiers who fought at APP
pomattox," Major London says,
''deserve more credit than those
who fought in any other battle of
the war. During the first half of
the war the South was confident
of success, and until the last
campaign there "a hope of sue
cess. This confidence and hope
cheered and encouraged our sold
iers, but when Richmond and
Petersburg had fallen and the
thin gray line had reached APP
pomattox all hope had fled. And
yet that feeble remnant of what
had been the grandest army that
ever shook a continent with its
tread, after all hope was gone,
fought as CALAMITY at Appomat-
tox as at Manassas"
It is we'll to honor the memory
and perpetuate the deeds of such
soldiers as these-none better has
the world ever seen. And it should
be a matter Of pride that North
Carolina is the first Southern
state to erect there a memorial to
her troops.-Charlotte News.

An Unfortunate Contention.

North Carolina soldiers we're
not modest and retiring when
fighting was needed to be done;
why should they be modest and
retiring now?-Raleigh Post.
It is because of this 'modest
and retiring" nature of the people
of North Carolina that she does
not stand higher among the states
in the union, or rather because
her people have been careless and
indifferent to the states reputa-
ton. In recent years they have
been spurred to greater interest in
wrestling her past from the OBJ
llvion to which it Ohas been
relegated through the lack
of energy to strive to place her
where she belongs. We have just
begun to feel and to let the world
know that our state is not ''just
a strip of land between two
states"
When it was decideded to place
that legend on the monument tc
beraised atAppomattox all thepeo'
pie applauded.I It would be a testi'
monial forall time to come of what
North Carolina soldiers did fol
the cause of the C~onfederacy. II
the legend is true, and the people
of the state claim that facts prove
it's truth. then it should be placed
on the monument, let object who
may. Those who do not wish to
believe 1T are not forced to do SO
simply because it is carved on a
marble shaft.
We are sorry to e that a good
many North Carolinians are now
expressing opposition to the in
scription remaining upon the
monument-advocatipg it's oblit-
ertlon and some other substituted.
They take this position not be-
cause legend is untrue, but
through fear of offending some
who took part in these battles.
They should have thought of this
earlier-betore the monument was
erected and the inscription en-
graved upon it.
If this inscription is to become
! a source of contention among our
own people at this late day it
would be better to let the whole
matter drop-to' take down the
monument and have no testimo-
NAL to the valor and heroism of
our soldiers upon these battle
fields and let pass unchallenged
the contention of those who claim
the honors without having won
them.If we claim thatNorth Caro-.
lima troops were the first atBethel,
farthest at Gettysburg and Chick.
