Difficult Land Question

M. Leroy Beaulieu then discussed the
agrarian and other leading questions.
The land, he said, was the most difficult
question. The government recoils be-
fore the enormous cost of partial or
total appropriation of the ancient
estate, yet unless the emperor satisfies
the peas SAINTS he will transfer them into
an opposition element. and perhaps into
revolutionists.
When questioned concerning the
Jewish question, Leroy -Beaulieu spoke
of his observations during his recent
travels in Russia, where he was struck
with the tenacity with which the Jews
demanded the same political and civil
rights as the Christians.
"There are 100000 Jews in Russia, "
said he, land If so many of them are
found among the revolutionists the
reason is to be found in the exceptional
laws to which they are compelled TO
submit. The Jews thus become irrecon-
cilable adversaries of the government
which obstinately refuses them the
rights accorded to other people in the
country.
Thus the reactionists count on the
Jews, and this is why the police incite
brutalities against the Jews, like those
at Bialystok. Even IL the ministers are
not directly responsible for them the
local police organize butcherles, which
proceed under the benevolent silence Of
the administration. When visited
Russia plans for uprisings against the
Jews were everywhere announced, and
the subsequent action merely realized
what 1 expected. The sole means OF
bringing about the withdrawal OF the
Jewish masses from the revolutionary
propaganda is to accord them equality
before the law.

VIII Rcnsscss Bakcr County.

All the work of assessing Baker
county must be done over again I'm
order to get the personal property
exemption on the rolls. On Monday
morning next, County Assessor Fleet
wood will start his corps of assessors
over the county again to get the per-
sonai property This total will amount
to 100000 in Baker county.
But lately the supreme court held
that exemption of $500 was invalid
and that all household property
should be assessed the same as other
property. This decision came too late
for the assessors to include household
property iii the regular assessment,
and consequently most of them, like
Mr.. Fleetwood, must do the work
over again.
The deputy assessors for Baker
county will start ont Monday morn
ing to take all household assessments.
There will he no exemptions this year
at all and all people owning any sort
of furniture must pay taxes on the
same.-Baker City Herald.

The power of the state engineer to
reject applications for the use Of WI
ter is declared by Mr.. Teele to be un-
ne cessary to the main purposes Of
public supervision of the requirement
of rights, as accuracy and complete
ness can be secured without this
power. Rejection on the ground OF
lack of water supply is common. but
owing to the variable character of the
discharge of a stream, and the retura
OF seepage water often after several
years, the data are usuaiiy not con-
elusive as to the existence of unap-
propriated water in any stream. In
quiry into the feasibility of a project
and proper engineering is desirable,
but rejection of applications on the
ground OF public policy" opens the
way for discrimination In favor OF
certain parties, and has proven either
ineffective or unpopular. The Idaho
provision requiring filing fee Of ten
cents for each cubic foot per second
has worked well as a check on specu-
lative filings A bond as a guaranty
Of good faith is also required in
Idaho, but not in any other state.
For the distribution OF water each
district or division must embrace one
drainage area, so that all interdepen-
dent water rights shall come under
the control OF one official, as in Col
orado. The cost of distribution has
proved to be SO small--f.2 cents an
acre in one district-that the division
of the expense between the counties
and the state has proven a small prob
lem.

No. 16S, of the office Of experiment

F,NpiNc OUT WHAT PAYS.

1t is not only important for a farmer
to know whether. upon the whole. he
is losing o. gaining. but II Is. If any
thing, more important for him to
know at what point he is losing or
gaining, that he may cut off those
things which do not pay, and stress
those which pay best. Is he II cotton
raiser? If so. does ii pay him to raise
cotton In the way he has been doing
it? Does 1t pay him to use fertilizers
on cotton? Does the rotation of crops
he now follows pay best? Does ii a
better to raise or buy stock. to raise
hogs or buy bacon, to keep ten head
of cattle or half that number? Would
some other money crop pay better ON
his farm than cotton? These and doz-
ems of other like questions he may ask
himself. n study to very great ad-
vantage. Some of these he may an
swcr pretty satisfactorily from his in
dividual experiments only. Don't con-
clude hat since the government has
established experiment stations there is
no need OF farmers making expert
ments. The stations make experiments
to establish general principles; the
farmer should experiment to ascertain
how best to apply those principles to
his individual farm. Every farm has
something peculiar to itself which calls
for special treatment. But experiments
teach little unless full, systematic rec
ord is kept. Experience loses much OF
its value in the absence of records. ON.
cannot trust To his memory alone; last
impressions always overshadow and
