Missouri Fruit May

dangersd the fruit crop OF Miss ouri,

While it is not believed that the

Secret Of Japan's Strength.

Though manufacturing industries
have had remarkable growth In Japan

maintains its own as the leading source
of wealth. The oriental country can
feed its own inhabitants and does not

Of other nations. To the fact that the
country is mainly agricultural some
eminent japanese statesmen have At
tributed its ability to continue long
and grueling war. The battles on land

purposes do not disturb the peaceful

HUNDREDS OF CATTLE DIE.
Anthrax in South Missouri Herds
Proves Very Fatal.

Columbia, Mo-, Jan. 23.-Dc. Nv.
Connoway, veterinarian to the state
experiment station, returned from
New Madrid county, where for the
last week he has been engaged In an
investigation OF a peculiar cattle
malsdy that has caused numerous
deaths in Southeast Missouri herds.
DR.. Connowsy said that the ex-
animation would not be completed
till the infected parts Of several ofthe
diseased cattle had been examined in
the laboratory here. He said, how
ever, that unless unexpected develop
ments took place in the analysis be
would adhere to his theory formed
during the investigation that the dis
ease Is anthrax, the most dangerous
cattle malady known to science.
Anthrax is called also splenetic fever
on account OF the tendency OF the
spleen to become greatly enlarged
and I'll with bacteria. 1t ray be
transmitted to man by incubation.
"Ths only other possible theory, "
said DR.. Connoway, us that the dis
ease is caused by poisoning from the
plant known as the pea vine. This
isimprobable, as cattle which ate the
pea vine in the highlands have not
died, the malady being confined to
those that have eaten the plant 10
bottom lands. Similar outbreaks
have occurred here before, but thu
present has been particularly viru
lent"
DR.. Connoway found that the re
port Of the disease has not been exag
gerated. Murra Phillips, a stocl
breeder, has lost 125 out Of $50 cat
tie aud the Dawson Bros. and Others
have suffered greatly. DR.. Como

ME. CKAIG's DEPARTURE.
Portland Journal.


Just as Oregon is beginning to reap
the rich harvest that followed the
far seeing policy of advertising and
development begun by A. L. Craig,
that gentlemen has been called to a
wider field of effort. Not always does
proper appreciation follow closely on
well directed endeavor, but Mr..
Craig's abilities were SO marked, his
peculiar fitness for his place was SO
clearly defined by the successes a.
chieved, that recognition was almost
instantaneous, and his services were
sought for the upbuilding of railroad
business in another quarter.
The leading spirits in the financial
and commercial world of Portland
will meet with Mr.. Craig tonight,
and after drinking to his health and
continued prosperity, will speak the
regret that is felt at his departure, and
we doubt that even under the intiu-
ences that will necessarily mark this
last meeting with Mr.. Craig the ex
pressions of grief will outtell the feel
ings of the orators. 1t will be
pleasure to hear Mr.. Craig reiterate
the splendid confidence he has in Port
land, for which he has done so much.
and for Oregon, which is well in his
debt; and for that wider territory, the
Oregon country, whose waste places
have become gardens because of such
work as his. In changing his place of
residence, Mr.. Craig will not change
his feelings toward Oregon, and in
his new position with great road
that seeks our trade and from which
we expect much, he will be in posi-
tion to carry into greater execution
larger plans for Portland's welfare.
And that-and the knowledge that
Mr.. Craig is going higher up the
ladder-reconcile the commercial and
financial friendships and personal, as
we'll, to his leaving Portland.

THE IOWA SITUATION.

The Detroit News, (Ind. thus pre-
sents the facts as to the very interest
ing campaign in Iowa: 1.-THE issue
which gave rise to the Republican
factional fight in Iowa, which brought
Secretary Shaw into such unfavorable
notoriety and won him we'll deserved
rebuke from the White House, seems
likely to be lost sight of in indignation
at the methods that the machine has
introduced into the contest. Before
the battle between Governor Cummins
and the organization is finished in
Iowa, republicanism seems likely to
be wholly absorbed with an effort to
solve the problem of providing means
by which party opinions and desires
may be surely and accurately recorded.
At the outset the contest was simple
and direct one between the governors
tariff revision ideas, on the one side,
and the Shaw-Allison stand-pat doc
trine on the other. Finding them
selves being properly whipped in the
regular county contests, the machine
managers operating the stand-pat
campaign despaired of winning by get
ting the majority of the popular vote,
and began to plan to control the con-
yention through the favor of the
permanent organization by having the
latter seat contesting delegates and
representatives Of rump conventions.
'tThe utter failure of Secretary
Shaw's remarkable Scott county
speech, which he went to Iowa to de-
liver after conference with the pres
ident-whioh intimation was promptly
repudiated by the White House-utter-
ly failed of its purpose. After listen
ing to his appeal, the Scott county
delegates by more than four to one
indorsed the governor. Then the
Shawites simply declined to abide by
their overwhelming defeat, and 20 of
them, out of a convention OF more
than 150 members, proceeded TO name
a full delegation to the state conven-
ton, depending upon their pull with
the state committee to, obtain recog-
milton for it. This is fair sample of
the tactics that have been followed
throughout the latter days of the cam
paign. The machine could hardly
have made more convicting confes-
sion that the suppression, rather than
the expression, of the will of the
voters is what they seek, and the
Oummins forces could hardly have
asked for more foroible demonstra-
ton of the immediate and urgent need

ATHENA, JULY g.. 1906

Oregon was the first state in the
Union to make it possible for the peo-
pie to elect United States Senators.
This was done by pledges of legislative
candidates to Statement No. /. Now
Iowa, the "standpatter" state, is in
teresting the governors of other states
to send delegates to convention to
be held in Des Moines on September
fifth, for the purpose of providing
for general constitutional oonven-
tion to amend the United States con-
stitution so as to elect senators by di-
rect vote of the people. Iowa has
taken the lead in the movement, and
ii is to be hoped that the sanction of
two-thirds of the states in the Union
will be secured at the Des Moines con-
ven tion. Governor Chamberlain
has named five delegates to represent
Oregon at Des Moines, one of them
being Bert Huffman, editor of the
East Oregonian. In the selection of
Mr.. Huffman, Umatilla county is Civ

will lend force, dignity and character

Eastern Oregon, to obtain for her peo-
pie the right to choose representatives
in the national congress by popular
vote.
