STOESSEL Is CRITICISED.
Toxic Opinion on His Blowing Up .
Russian Ships.

In Toxic Gen. Stoessel is being sharp
" criticised for destroying the Russian
warships, attempting to choke the en-
trance to the harbor of Port Arthur and
dispatching the torpedo boat destroyers
to Chefoo, subsequently to his offer to
surrender the fortress. The Nichi Nlchl
says that while Gen. Stoessel made a
gallant defense, his action in blowing
up the ships after he had offered to sur
render leaves lasting blemish upon his
military reputation. His action indicates
Il want of sincerity and leaves no room
for an extension of treatment of him
commensurate with the reputation won
by the bravery and gallantry of his de-

Ships in Harbor DESTROYED,

In accordance with Admiral Wiren's
orders the disabled battleship Sevastopol
outside the harbor was blown up, and
the other large Russian ships inside the
harDor were destroyed as thoroughly as
possible. The half-sunken ships Retzi-
van, Poltava and Pallada caught fire as
the other ships were blown up inside of
and near the entrance to the harbor. Dur
ing the siege it is estimated that the
Japanese lost more men than the total
number of the fortress defenders,

Japan started the war for principle,
and She will continue to fight until that
principle will have been attained. This
has always been the attitude of the Mi
kado's government since the war began.
No change will be made in this, but it
is believed the imperial understanding of
the pI inciple involved may be modified
since the surrender of the fort.

Port Arthur's Fall.
Toxic is wildly joyous over the surren-

extras were the messengers who carried
the news to the holiday crowds in the
streets. Crowds grabbed the papers and
repeated the cries. Thus was the news
carried throughout the city and within Il
few minutes the firing of aerial bombs
and daylight rockets began in all parts
of the city Bands appeared and score
of small professions formed and surSed
through the principal streets. Monday
night the celebration was continued with
the burning of much red fire. Japan has
paid Il heavy price for the Russian for
tress. The prospect of its early posses

year will pay all expenses and leave
margin of profit. He has found that
seven -year-old orchard Of Is acres
paid him a profit Of 800 an acre, not
deducting interest and taxes.
These figures show that apple rails
ing I'm Oregon is profitable, but are
not intended to arouse an undue en-
thusiasm on the subject of apple cul-
ture in the minds of people who
know nothing about the business; be-
cause there is no better chance for a
man in the apple business, unless he
knows business and means business,
than there is in keeping a store or
contracting for street improvements.
1t requires a man with patience, in
dustry, and a lot of hard. common
sense to raise apples, but If his sue
cess is earned his reward is abund-
ant; and therein lies the charm.
The value of the Oregon apple
crop in 1903 was $640,000. Probably
I'm 1904 it exceeded an even million,
for the number and size of the apple
orchards is increasing by leaps and
bounds yearly, Oregon fashion. Be
tween 1890 and 1900 the number of
aple trees in the state more than
doubled. Four counties-Linn, Clack-
amas, Marion and Douglas-reported
an increase of more than 100000
trees. And yet the demand for the
Oregon apple increases with the in
crease of the yield, and last year the
apples that have made the state fam
GUS brought higher prices than ever
before. The significance of this is
apparent when one considers that
authorities claim that not one-tenth
of the available ground adapted tc
apple growing is planted.
The oregon apple today commands
the highest prices ever paid for ap-
pies. In London, recently, Hood
River Newton pippins sold at 22s and
Cd ($5.43) per bushel box of Al
pounds, and in Scotland 1000 boxe:
sold at Edinburgh for 20s per box
while Scotch apples were to be bought
for Is Cd. These prices are equiva.
lent to about cents an apple. And
the apples are worth the money, Il
ever apples are.

HELPS CREDITORS
NEW EXEMPTION LAW
IN FORCE MAY Is.
One-Half the Earnings of. Debtor VIII
BE Subject to Levy for Debts After
May 1S-Will Help Business Men
in Collecting Many Debts From
People Able to Pay.

Oregon merchants will have a good
remedy against many of their bad
debtors after May IS, when the act
of the last legislature regarding the
exemption of wages from execution
will go into effect. This act amends
the law by making one-half the
earnings of the debtor subject to exc
cution proceedings il the debt be for
family expenses.
Prior to 1908 all the earnings of a
debtor for 80 days next preceding
the service of an attachment, execu-
tion or garnishment, were exempt IL
the earnings were needed for the sup
port of a family.
Under that law men with consider
able monthly incomes would escape
the payment of their debts. The leg
islature of 1903 amended the law by
limiting the amount of earnings ex-
empt to s75, but leaving the law
otherwise the same.
AS there are comparatively few
men working for wages who receive
over SIS a month, this law still ena-
bled men to avoid debts which they
should be compelled to pay, and the
legislature of 1905 amended the sec
tion still further by adding this
clause: Except when the debt is
incurred for family expenses furnish
ed within six months of the date of
the service of such attachment, exc
cution or garnishment, so per cent
of such earnings shall be subject to
such attachment, execution or garn-
ishment."
As construed by the courts, the
term family expenses" includes each
item as provisions, fuel. rent, furni-
ture, wearing apparel, pianos, organs,
iau,aIr,, medical attendance etc.
