A Sound Reason.

'Pd like to have the day off next
Wednesday, sir" said young Thompson
to the senior partner.
The senior partner frowned. lie did
not approve Of holidays.
I'VE don't like to establish the pre-
cedent of giving time off he said.
But | have some rather important
business on hand" urged young Thomp-
son.
And I suppose no one possibly could
attend to this important business but
your sneered the senior partner.
We'll, not very well, sir, because, you
see"
Young men are too prone TO over
rate their own Importance interrupted
the senior partner. ITS a common fail
ing among them to consider themselves
Indispensable, when nine times out of ten
they are only blocking the way Of better
man. Now, yours, no doubt, if neces-
sary, you could depute some one else to
attend to for you-some one Just as able
and just as willing as yourself"
Without doubt, sir" said young
Thompson; but as I'm to be married,
the lady has conceived the notion that /
am Indispensable to the CEREMONY
Tit-Bits.

FAITHS OF THE PRESIDENTS.
Methodists, Episcopalians and Presby
terians, but No Baptists.

Although the Baptist denomination is
one of the most numerous in the United
States, there has never been a Baptist
President.
There have been two Congregational
Presidents-John Adams. the second
President, and John Quincy Adams, his
son.
President Roosevelt is the second Pres
ident of the Reformed Dutch church,
Martin Van Buren, having been the first.
Willard Fillmore was Unitarian, the
only Unitarian President.
Washington, William Henry Harrison,
John Tyler and Zachary Taylor were
Episcopalians, as was Chester A. Ar
thur.
There have been five Presbyterian Presi-
dents-Andrew Jackson, James X. Polk,
James Buchanan, Benjamin Harrison
and Grover Cleveland.
President Garfield was a member of
the Church of the Disciples.
Prior to the Civil war there had been
no Methodist President of the United
States. Since 1861 the following Presi-
dents have been Methodists: Abraham
Lincoln, johnson, Gen. Grant, r. B.
Hayes and William Mckinley.
There has never been Lutheran nor
Roman Catholic President.-New York

BABY CAME NEAR DYING

From an Awful Skin Humor -
Scratched Till Blood Ran-wasted to
Skeleton-SpeediIy Cured by Cuti-
cura.
When three months old my boy
broke out with an itching, watery rash
all over his body, and he would
scratch till the blood ran. We tried
nearly everything. but he grew worse,
wasting to a skeleton, and we feared
he would die. He slept only when in
our arms. The first application Of
Cutcura soothed him so that he slept
in his cradle for the first time in many
weeks. You don't know how glad L
was. One set of the Cuticura Rene
dies made a complete and permanent

Snake River Fruit is Damaged.

The next meeting of the Klickitat
County horticultural association, to
be held in Goldendale on Saturday,
April |, promises to be thoroughly
good one, says the Agriculturist. Be
sides the speakers mentioned last
week, it is expected that State Com
missioner Won Holdebeck will be pres
ent. The commissioner says that fruit
prospects are somewhat different this
year than at any time in the past
That is the condition all over the
state. The winter has been very pc
culiar this year In places where
heretofore has been the least frost,
this year has been the worst. The
unusually cold weather in the region
of Vineland, in Asotin county, as
well as up the Snake river, has in
jured, in localities, such fruits as
grapes, peaches and cherries. In
some places in the districts that |
have mentioned the thermometer
ranged as low as 10 degrees below
zero. The prior warm weather had
developed the buds to such an extent
that all Of the peach buds, especially,
are injured this year. Cherries and
grapes will also be scarce as result.

r. D. Allen writing in the Salem
Statesman says:
| think there is some unnecessary
apprehension expressed through the
colu. Ii, Of your paper in regard to
the fine, Ltlny weather and it's effect
on the fl 't crop. My observation
and Ell CiIpuCu covering a period of
about Is ears, during which time
have been sou eWLat interested in
fruit growing, is quite contrary to
the pessimistic utteranCes Of some of
your weather editors. During all this
period the most disastrous results
have follow cd cold, backward springs
and the very best and largest crops
have invariably followed the earliest
springs. ] speak particularly with
reference TO the prune crop, as that
is the fruit which | have been inter
ested. The danger to this crop, and,
in fact, all other fruit crops, is not
so much from the frosts as from cold
rainy weather about blossoming time
and we are just as likely to have that
kind of weather in April or May as in
February or March, as every Oregon
ian knows.
The most complete failure of the
prune crop during the period men
toned was in 1886. That year, it
will be remembered, we had, cold
rainy weather up to about June 10.
And when the prune trees were in full
bloom about May |, about two weeks
later than ordinary, we had snow and
rain continually during the blooming
period. In my prune orchard that
year containing 20 acres, there was
not one bushel of prunes all told.
The best prune year, or fruit year of
any kind, for that matter, was 1889,
and many old residents of the Will
annette valley no doubt remember
what remarkable spring and summer
that was.
There was very little rain that year
after January LIST, and from and after
January 10 of that year until April,
there was not a drop of rain and the
roads became quite dusty by March l.
Along about the first week in April,
or, perhaps, the middle of April, it be-
gan raining and we had an abundance
of it the remaining spring and sum-
mer months to make excellent crops
of all kinds But when the rains came
they we're of the warm, balmy kind
that made vegetation of all kinds fair
ly boom.

FOR TWO WEEKS ONLY

We are authorized to sell 20 acres of
extra choice fruit aud berry land only
two miles from ferry landing. Fourteen
acres are now in cultivation, acres of
which are in straw berries. These ber-
ries are very early and ought to net
over $1,000 profit this String. There is
an orchard of $50 fruit trees, peaches,
almonds cherries, apples etc ; two liv-
ing springs, one OF which is piped into
the house The Improvements are good.
A large seven roomed house, painted
and convenient. A good barn and fruit
packing shed. A fine garden, irrigated,
with all kinds of berries for family use.
1t is only two miles to the store;
school house within quarter of mile
and the mail is delivered daily. This
place will make lovely home, and the
strawberries and fruit bring handsome
income. The owner refused $2500 last
fall or cash rental of $400 per year
But he now has business proposition
which he wishes to take up and offers
the place for $4,000 cash, or $1,000 down
and balance in four years. Such
chances do not come often and this is
worth investigating.

Must Arouse the Boy Himself.
Olympia Recorder.

The enterprising town of Prosser is
endeavoring to legislate the cigarette
habit out of its midst. A penalty of
$25 bangles above the head of the
youth who puffs the seductive tube,
and dire consequences await the dealer
who sells to minors. Yet it is a safe
bet that the youthful fingers will be
no less stained, or the youthful
breath less tainted the coming year
than heretofore, unless the victims
of the habit are influenced by other
means than the penalty of the law.
The New Jersey governor recon-
mendation Of prayer as means of
combating trusts may be viewed as
poor jest, but it was seriously
meant. One cannot be spiritually or
morally regenerated by legislation.
A S25 penalty may drive the Prosser
boy to seclnsIon In indulgence in his
cigarette and make bootleg vender
of the dealer who supplies him, but
the pungent incense will go up undi-
minished while the youth is schooled
in cunning evasion. Something must
be aroused within the boy strong
enough to exercise the habit before
reform can come. A dozen eastern
cities can give Prosser the result Of
experience with prohibitory legisla-
tion against the cigarette.

George Z. win Not Dictate to Jayne.

Andrew Allen Jayne of this city,
member of the lower house from
Wasco county, declares firmly that
he win give no pledge to Mr. Cham
berlain as to what he will do should
the governor call for his services at an
extraordinary session of the Oregon
legislature. Representative Jayne also
has some views on the normal school
question. He says:
I" | should not favor session of the
Legislature ON the grounds that any
high crimes or misdemeauors have
been committed in the session Just
closed, nor do | know that | would
vote differently when it came to max
ing an appropriation on the several
normal schools of the state While |
believe there should be one well
supported normal school in the state,
located at the State University and
forming part of the states higher
educational system, do not believe
the time is ripe to do away with the
four normal schools at one swoop. 1t
would work an injury to the young
men and women preparing themselves
for teaching, and thus affect the
efficiency of our public school work.

win Not DELAY the Great Work,

The land sharks have long deferred
the repeal Of the iniquitous land laws,
and in the western states an appeal is
made that the reclamation work would
suffer. Senator Paris Gibson answered
this point very effectively in recent
speach in the United States senate,
when he said:
We are told that these land laws acts.
if repealed, will very greatly impair the
national irrigation fund, and this is
strongly urged as reason why they
should be maintained, Notwithstanding
their unwise and unjust provisions. As
we'll might we assert that highway
robbery should be tolerated with when
ever the property taken is appropriated
to charitable purposes.
But | am one of those who do not be-
lieye that the great national work of
reclaiming our arid lands, now begun,
will cease or be materially DELAYED ii
we take the steps required to save the
public lands for homeseekers. There
is now in the treasury approximately
500, 900, 900 to the credit of the fund.
Should tue desert-land and the COM
mutation clause OF the homestead act
and the timber and stone act be repeal
ed at this session of Congress, the lands
already filed upon would probably in
crease the fund to $50, 900 900, and there
after the sales of mineral lands, in
Guiding coal lands and the sales of tim
Der lands would go to the credit of the
irrigation fund. As every dollar invest
ed in irrigation work by the interior
will be returned again to
the Treasury as fast as the reclaimed
lands are sold, can not see that we
shall fail to obtain the results sought
for in the national irrigation act.

Great Year for Oregon NeNtoMns.

Oregon Yellow Newtowns have this
year received more free advertising
than ever before. For the past two or
three years they have sold at higher
prices in English markets than any
other Yellow Newtowns The present
season the poor crop of apples in Eng
land and the comparative failure of
the Yellow Newtown in the Pajaro val
Icy Cal, has resulted in phenomenal
prices of Oregon Newtowns in Great
Britain.
An Edinburg paper recently report
ed that Oregoan Newtowns were sell
ing in that city at n guinea box.
Hood River Newtowns have recently
been sold in London at DIS to 24s per
box, according to reports sent from
that city. The Medford Mail reports
that Hon. j. ID. Olwell, of Central
Point, Or, has received notice of sale
of Il carload of his Yellow Newtowns
in London at 20s per box, equivalent
to S3,6O per box f. o. b. cars at Med
ford, Or.
The Fruit Growers union of Med
ford, Or, recently received reports of
sales in London of Yellow Newtowns
grown by M. l.. Pellett, figures which
net M. Pellet 50. so per box.
Such prices as the Oregon growers
are receiving this year are not expect
cd often, and yet for the past ten
years here has not been a season in
which flrst-class Yellow Newtowns
have not brought high price. The
growers of the Yellow Newtown
should have higher price for it than
for most varieties because it is not an
easy variety to raise to perfection
anywhere, and there are comparatively
few places where it can be raised of
the quality which Is required for an
export apple. There has been some
thing of boom in the business of
planting Yellow Newtowns in Oregon
for the past two or three years, There
is not so much danger of producing
an over-supply of such apples as are
now selling in Great Britain at So per
box rs there Is of raising large
quantity of apples of inferior quality
which will be shipped to distant mar
kets and injure the reputation of Ore
gon Yellow Newtowns This has al
ready happened in Pajaro valley, Cal.
and the apples from that valley no
longer command the relative prices
in London at which they once sold.
