THE INTERNAL REGIONS.
How They Are Depicted In Buddhism,
and IElGmiAm.

| HOW They Are Depicted In Buddhism
and IElGmiAm.
The Internal regions Of Buddhism
are horrible. They comprise a great
hell and 1876 lesser hells. In these
bells. according TO the sculptures OF
the Buddhist temples, men are ground
to powder and their dust turned into
ants and Aeas and spiders. They are
pestlcd In mortar The hungry eat
redhot iron balls. The thirsty drink
molten Iron.
Islamism says OF the Internal re-
gions: They who believe not shall
have garments of fire fitted for them.
Boiling water shall be poured on their
heads and on their skins, and they
shall be beaten with maces Of iron"
In the Scandinavian mythology, the
mythology Of 0din and Thor. we are
told that "lD Nastrond there is a vast
and direful structure, with doors that
face the north. 1t Is formed entirely
OF the backs of serpents, wattled to-
gether like wickerwork But the ser.
pents' heads are turned toward the In
side Of the hall, and they continually
send forth floods Of venom, in which
wade all those who commit murder or
forswear themselves"
In the past Christian clergymen
loved to describe hell. The present
tendency. however. is to avoid discus
sion Of this plaCc-to dwell upon the
gentler and more lovely side OF Chris

Do Not Boil Coffee Too Long.
There is only one mistake that can
be made In making coffee, and that is
to cook 1t too much. When subjected
to a momentary boiling and then re-
moved from the fire 1t is drink for
the gods, but II II Is kept at high de-
gree Of heat for thirty minutes Its
character is entirely changed, and II
becomes almost poisonous. OF the peo-
pie who overlook coffee In this way
some do It through ignorance, but the
greater part Of them through greed in
order to make II go further and pro
duce larger profit. What we need Is
law making II a capital offense to |
boil coffee more than three minutes.-

What cotton is worth is hard to say,
but at even IS cents, clothing from it
costs less than that made from any
other material. During the war cot-

and for years after the war averaged
above 20 cents, but it was all taken

mistakes, believe in dwelling more

About this time the farmers refusal
to follow Prices advice began TO have
it's effect, and having, with his usual
adroitness, changed to the other side,
on June 18th he writes advocating
higher prices. These facts foreshadow
extraordinary advances in the price OF
cotton. Having given his estimate of
the crop at nine and half million
bales he goes on to say, with a view
to getting at the views of the trade,
the following questions have been Sub
mitred to the members of the three
leading exchanges Of the world, and
the replies of 50 from each exchange
gives as follows, on a crop Of not over
100000 bales: New York exchange,
1912 cents: New Orleans, IS cents;
Liverpool, 1852 cents.
Not very long after this he changed

lentless campaign which yesterday

lions have been lost by his acconpli-
ces or dupes.
I fully agree with the State in think
: ING that a close alliance between the
farmer and the mills is the great de-
sideratum, but how can it be secured!
! The farmer will probably be willing,
| under existing conditions, TO enter
into an agreement to sell his future
crops at 10 cents, but have you the
remotest idea that any considerable
Der cent of mills will agree. We have
seen that in the past that no mill has
ever bought more than from hand to
mouth on falling market.
The practically universal rule OF
the mills has been to only meet their
| most pressing demands on a falling
market, no matter how great their
profits may be.
Our papers have undertaken to say
| what is a remunerative price; gener-
ally fixing about 10 cents, and they
, have, as a rule, criticised severely any
holding for prices above that, no mat
ter what price the farmer was COM
PEELED to accept in years past, and are
; too apt to cali out the moment II
cents or more is demanded that you
are destroying the profits Of the mills.

greatest sympathy for the officials,

views. Whether cotton can be put up

& planters association in trying
ledge holders of cotton to con-
to hold for IS cents. doubt If
It will reach that price and doubt if
it will benefit the producer of cotton
in the long run if it does, but still
fully sympathize with the motive
which induces the effort.
fully agree with you that the ideal
to be desired is your plan OF an TN
derstanding between the spinner and
the grower as to price and the effort
to hold it at that, but how is an agree
1nent to be come to when the spinner,
as a rule, always on declining mar
ket, waits for further decline; and
their scant numbers and their knowl-
edge of the utter lack of organization
among the farmers makes it compaza-
tiyely easy for them to wait on de-
cline and catch the discouraged farm
er at his moment of weakness and
drive hard bargains with him. This,
added to the effect it has always here
tofore had, induces them to believe
that a drop of a cent means drop
of another cent and that all they have
to do is to wait to buy cotton (Which
at ruling prices will pay them hand
some profit) at price which will
show an exorbitant profit. This has
been their. rule so invariably that l
defy proof of mills ever having bought
heavily on a rapidly declining market.
MI. Theodore Price has, suppose,
spoken the mill sentiments with great
regularity; whether as aeader or as a
follower makes no difference, but they
generally have moved together and on
the recent decline, which is fresh in
the memory Of everyone, the mills
bought only from hand to mouth, and
are no better supplied now that Price
has met his Waterloo than they were
when he was daily knocking the price
down heavily by ingenious nisstate-
nents and no less disingenious deduc-
tons.
Going back to 1904, we read when
in November the proof of d mammoth
CROP first became indisputable, Price
came out in public statement show
ssg. apparently indisputably, that the
price would inevitably go lower than
S cents and urged the farmer to sell
at the >cu.rent price of less than 7
cents. The farmer practically AN
swered, 81 can't dispute your reason
ing, but I have the cotton and won't
sell at your figure and won't take your
advice; whoever wants my cotton
must pay 10 cents or will hold II"
The result has been that It all sold
around the farmers figure and in the
end Price was enthusiastic on the bull
side. But on February IS, 1905, he
was ON the bear side and writes:

SALOON FIGHT AT BOISE.
Council Refuses to BE Ruled by the
Whlslsey Ring Mayor.

The following special from Boise
City gives a fair review of the liquor
mems fight in that city, for the wide
open policy:
Ever since the present city admins
tration came into power there has
been lnsistent effort to secure repeal
of the ordinance closing saloons on
Sundays and at midnight every night.
This movement has had the earnest
support of Mayor Pinney, and he has
brought great pressure to bear upon
the council to carry out his wish.
Last night in a caucus 1t was agreed
that the Sunday feature of the ordi-
nance should be repealed, provided
one were passed raising the license
from 5000 to $1,000 a year. Today the
mayor sent word to the city attorney
not to draft the license ordinance, as
he would not sign 1t. On learning
this the councilmen prepared an ordi-
nance making the Sunday ordinance
more binding, taking in some places
that have escaped heretofore, notably
Riverside Park, where the mayors
son-in-law runs an eating stand and
dispenses liquors with food.
Tonight at council meeting this
ordinance was passed. The mayor
took 1t under advisement, and in the
meantime there is some red paint on
the face of municipal affairs.

Thursday and Friday, September
2s and 29 have been designated and
set apart as Agricultural days at the
Lewis and Clark centennial exposition.
During this time the Agricultural club.
composed of the exhibitors in the Ag-
ricultural building, propose to give
away 1000 valuable presents. In ad-
dition to this, they will give away
five carloads of choicest Oregon fruits.
The first days parade will begin at
1920 a. m, and will demonstrate the
evolution of agriculture from 1904 to
the present time. and will be partici-
pated in by Captains Lewis and Clark,
Sacajawea, Indian scouts and camp
followers, and the premium stock Of
the exposition stock show then in ses-
zion. Music for this occasion will be
furnished by the original and only 81
Perkins Farmers band.
The second days parade will be
given in the evening of September 20.
and will be headed by floats decorated
with flowers, etc, and will contain
the godesses Ceres, Pomona and
Flora, with their maids of honor, at
tendants and guards, followed by
ONHtT llodNb anu utCOIdlSu NeHlSlco.
In order to stimulate an elegant
display, cash prizes amounting to 800
will be awarded as follows: For best
decorated vehicle, $50; for second
best, $50; for third best $40.
Owing to the fact that many of the
counties have been unable to have a
day set apart for their particular
county, this will give them a grand
opportunity to make good that loss
The 2Sth of September is the day set
apart as wasco county day. During
this time they expect to give away a
large quantity OF fruit, which, added
TO that given by other counties. will
suffice to furnish abundant fruits for
all visitors.
AS the northwest depends so large
ly on It's agricultural RESOURCES, 1t is
to be hoped that the citizens of each
county will support these days. and all
visit the fair at this time.

NO. 1906 CONTRACTS IN IDAHO
Buyers VIII Not Offer as Much as the
Growers Want.

Boise, Sept. 16.-During the past
few days there has been considerable
activity among sheepmen and wool
buyers, and rumors of sales, both of
the muttons themselves and of the
prospects of next years crops from
their woody backs, have been frequent,
but so far as can be learned, there
have been no sales actually consum-
mated.
Among the rumors which have been
circulated Is one that some buyer,
name unknown. has been offering to
buy next years clip from the Idaho
sheepmen at 23 cents per pound. No
sales at figure even approximating
this have been recorded, and 1t is not
believed that any such offers have
been made. Most of the sheepmen,
in fact, IL not all of them, would well
come an opportunity to contract the
coming clip at 20 cents.
The woolbuyers have been circu-
lating about, however, in an endeavor
to secure next years crop. but the
growers and the buyers have not so
far been able to get together on suit
able price. The buyers seem willing
to pay as high as II or IS cents, but
above that they will not go. This is
not satisfactory to the sheepmen, and
the two classes have not been able
to get together.
1t Is reported that in Montana next
years clip is bringing 22 cents. and
the growers are very chary about
closing deals even at that price. Last
year, over 100000 pounds of the
present seasons clip was contracted
in advance In Montana at from IS to
20 cents.
But few sheep have been sold of
late, the eastern market, having
fallen. The dealers are unwilling to
pay anything more than the present
market would warrant, while the
sheepmen are unwilling to accept less
than they could have obtained a few
weeks ago.
One of the recent sales of import
ance Is that of Governor Gooding In
disposing Of his annual crop Of lambs
In speaking of the sale the Chicago
Livestock World says:
Frank Gooding has just marketed
in Chicago the last of his years crop
of lambs which he raised in Idaho and
which realized him the sum of $23.-
