ELECT JONATHAN BOURNE
The Man Whom the Electorate OF
Oregon Has Declared Should
Be Elected.

Propositions now made for the
Legislature not to confirm Mr.. Bourne
as Senator are an insult to the elec-
torate of Oregon. In the late election
more than $4,000 voters expressed theiI
choice as to who should be Senator,
and the largest number of votes went
to Mr.. Bourne. The action was taken
under authority of solemn statute
demanded and enacted by the people
themselves. Mr.. Bourne, whether
worthy or unworthy, whether the like
or dislike of this or that politician, is
the embodied choice Of the sovereign
citizenship, and there is no one with
any sort of claim or subterfuge by
which to dispute his title. He is alone
and unchallenged in his sposition. He
has behind him that plurality indorse-
ment of the ballot box which is the
sole means by which people can rule
themselves.
To refuse to ratify Mr.. Bourne's Sc
lection would be an open defy by the
Legislature of the will of the people.
1t would bring the Legislative body
into disrepute that would make il
loathed and hated. The fair-play
voters of the state, even though Mr.
Bourne was not their candidate, to a
man want him named as Senator now,
and all such will hold in contempt
the Legislature and Legislators that
attempt to set aside that which the
people in good faith and sincerity
have pointed out as their will in the
premises.
It is not timely to propose repudi'
alton of Mr.. Bourne. To engage in
such an enterprise would be to offel
violence to good government, to insult
the people of the commonwealth and
trail the name of Oregon in the dusi
for the amusement of the rest OF thf
world. Let Mr.. Bourne be confirmed
let him have the distinction he has
won, and let him go to Washington
and do his duty there. He can do M
worse, and he will surely do a grea
deal better than some others hav'
done. Corvallis Times.

Good Words For Bryant.

The Observer only reflects the senti-
ment of the entire community, and Of
all who attended the Institute in this
city this week, when we say that
Superintendent Bryant covered him
self with glory in the preparation and
the conducting Of the same to com
plete success, making it the best
county institute ever held in this tier
Of Inland Empire counties, and the
equal of any in the state. He displayed
generalship in securing his aids and
the various parts of the elaborate pro-
gram were carried out with sur
prisingly proficient detail, even to the

Funk has time and again stated
that if the American fruit grower
does not begin to spray his trees,
he will have no trees to spray with
in a decade.
A glimpse at DR. Funk's orchards
shows that he understands Ills bust
ness. He has one orchard of peach
trees, two years old, consisting of
lob trees, every one of which bore
heavily. The average Gro. picked
from these trees was Il baskets
per tree. for which he found rea.
dy market at the very gates of his
own orchard at prices ranging
from 81 to 50 rs per basket. Fruit
growers who have visited the or
chards Of the Paragon farm say
that this two-yesr-old orchard is
the healthiest one in America, and
model one in every respect. What
is true of his peach orchard, is also
true of his apple and pear orchards.
Apple culture is the Doctors hob
by and the Stayman, Wine Sap and
Rome Beauty are his favorites. He
has 7-year old apple trees OF the
Wealthy variety that have produc-
ed y bushels of apples per tree,
which is remarkable record.
The Doctor will BIZ busily engage
ed in giving spraying experiments
and lectures at farmers institutes
until the beginning of April.

Value of Good Roads to Trade


"Good roads for the people" should
be the slogan Of every farmer and
every good citizen, says D. M. Carr IN
the Home Trade Advocate. Good roads
mean more than can be told in any
volume. Good roads mean saving OF
hundreds Of millions Of dollars yearly
to the people of the country. Good
roads mean better rural towns, better
country schools, more happiness and
greater reward for labor. Yet there
are other things that should go hand
in hand with good roads, and one OF
them is opposition to every means that
will cause trade to drift from the coun'
try town. 1t matters not how good the
roads, the country is impoverished II
the roads are the means of sending
more dollars to the large cities. In
connection with the good roads move
ment let every taxpayer be impressed
with the fact that the more money kept
in each community makes the pro rata
share of taxes for the maintenance OF
good roads less; that the dollars sent
to the big financial centers will moi
help pay for local Improvements.

During the dark ages and in early

their spouses were quite content with

masses Of roast or seethed meat and

HOPE TO BEAUTIFY TOWN.
Ladies' Civic improvement League
working For Ferg sSnn, Mo.

Working For Ferg ESnn, Mo.
At recent meeting Of the Ladies'
Civic Improvement league Of Fergu-
son. Mo-, presided over by Mrs. Fl. b.
Miltenberger and attended by Mayor
LIE Grand Atwood, the support of the
town officials was guaranteed to the
ladies in all their efforts to benefit the
town, says the st. Louis Republic.
In order to stimulate work among
the members Mayor Atwood suggested
the formation Of ward organizations
and the institution Of ward contests.
He proposed that prizes should be Of
fered in this connection. He also an
nounced that the chief officials Of the
Wabash had promised to ascertain
what improvements were needed and
to lend their aid in seeing they were
carried out.
A movement was also made to admit
the school children into the society at
dues Of 10 cents per year, which en-
titles them to a button Of the organiza-
ton. A committee was appointed to
call upon Professor w. w. Griffith OF
the high school to obtain his co-opera-
ton.
Arrangements have been made for
the purchase Of refuse boxes, which
were used at the worlds fair. and these
will be placed along the main street OF
the town for reception of waste paper
and refuse.
City Marshal Charles Graf is mem
Der of the league and has announced
that he will enforce the ordinances
against vandalism and the throwing OF
papers and other litter in the streets.
The women Of the league have made
an appeal to the citizens of Ferguson
to assist in the prosecution Of viola
tons of the laws touching the purposes
of the league.

The jamestown Exposition.

H~ W -
This is good news from Ohio
which tells us that state will
appropriate 100000 for a state
building and exhibits at the James,
town Exposition. 1t is especially
good because so much Of the OF the
population of Ohio is Of Virginia
descent and the prospect OF well
coming home these long-departed
children of the old State is de-
lightful.
The announcement should rally
us to renewed action and induce US
to do some serious thinking. Viz
ginia cannot afford to hold back
or he niggardly in aiding her own
enterprise with this splendid exam.
pie of generosity from another
State, and that on the far side OF
Mason and Dixon line. That is
the first idea suggested. Another
is that we should be ashamed to
ask aid from the Northern States
for our exposition unless we in.
tend to reciprocate and respond
wnen we are called on. This news
paper. for one, is tired of seeing
Southern States keep themselves
in the position of paupers and de-
pendents. Ever since the war some
of our politicians and newspapers
have been diligently abusing the
North and everything there, but
we have been going there with APP
peals whenever we needed help OF
any kind, The time has come for
the Southern States instead OF
holding out importuning hands to
be filled, to hold out hands Offering
some substantial return and help
when the Northern people need us.
Virginia did respond handsomely
to the call for st. Louis, and the
investment was a good one, but it
almost made a new record We
should be too proud to take aid
without being willing to return it
when we are called upon.
1t is true that for some years we
were very poor and that we had
reason for the bitterness we felt.
We have been going to the North
in our times of distress, when we
had epidemics, fires, earthquakes
and other disasters. We have sent
appeals there for our churches and
educational and charitable institu-
tons and contracted the bad habit
of looking there for the capital to
develop our resources and establish
our industries. Now we are abund-
antly able to help ourselves and we
should realize that fact. 1t is good
business sense to enlist the cooper
alton and the financial assistance
of other States in an enterprise like
the exposition. We should be
ashamed, however, unless we in
tend to help ourselves and when
our cooperation is invited or
sought to give it as generously and
handsomely as has been given to
us. Regarding ourselves as in
working partnership with all the
other States Of the Union, we
should make up our minds to do
our full share of the work when it
