THE congested state of the securities

son bonds. on terms which would have

must be recognized that the inability of
the Atchison and Union Pacific TO float
their bonds on the terms offered is de-

New York City to float 4 per cent tax

SEASON OF GRAND OPERA.

Brilliant as was the short season Of
grand opera given here one year ago.
under the management of Mr.. Heinrich
Conried, it seems likely to be eclipsed
when, on the evening Of Thursday, March
%. the world famous artists OF the Metro
.politan Opera House, in New York. begin
the short season at the Belasco Theater.
The repertoire has been chosen with care
and with special consideration for the
eclectic tasteO Of the most cosmopolitan city
in the United States. IL VIII include
Faust" the masterpiece Of G0unod
Aida, the greatest work OF Verdi. and
Madama Butterfly" the latest. and, in
the opinion Of the composer himself, most
important achievement of GiacomO Puc-
cini. whom New York lately lionized.
And, If the operas promised are Of such
varied charm, the company by which they
viii be interpreted IS in every respect
worthy of them. In addition 10 Mr.. Ca
ruso, the most wonderful OF living tenors,
Nine. Emma Eames, the American so
prano: Mr.. Pol Plancon. the basso; Mr..
Antonio Scott. the admirable barytone,
and Nine. Louise Homer. the contralto,

a fine singer and an unusually talented ac-
tress. On the eve Of his departure for
Europe last month. Mr.. Puccini spoke IN
glowing terms Of this young artists rare
individuality. Another newcomer will be

In Italy and England more particularly,
until his recent arrival in New York. a
special attraction in the performance OF
Aida" which will close the season, will
be the first appearance IN the title role Of
Nine. Marie Rappold the Brooklyn So
pTano. whom Mr. Conried discovered and
brought into prominence.
Faust will be interpreted under the d-
rection Of MI Conrieds new French con-
ductor. Mr. Samuel Bovy. who has made
his mark during the past few months by
his excellent and musicianly qualities.
SIR. BoVy is the only pupil Of the late en-
inent chef d'Orchestre, Luigini Of the
Opera COmique. The performance of
"Madama Butterfly ard aida" viii be
directed BY Mr. Vigna, who Is already
favorably known TO US. In the case OF
"Madama Butterfly" Mr. Vigns has had
the inestimable advantage of being as
sisted I'm the Interpretation Of that work

production was supervised at the Metro

LOOKS FOR PROHIBITION.

That the lid will close down In
oregon with a bank that will rever-
berate up and down the northwest
coast for years to come. is the pre-
diction of an observant Spokane man
who has been travelling in eastern
oregon for several months. In his
opinion the prohibition movement is
gaining remarkable headway and the
inevitable result will be the skiddoo
for all booze foundries in the Beaver
state.
In an interview with a Seattle pa
per F. C. Smalley of Spokane so ad-
dressed himself last Monday, and
further announced it as his belief
that Oregon would be as dry as a
powder horn after the next election.
Mr.. Smalley is dealer in blooded
horses, his mission in Oregon being
to dispose of his stock, and he said
he was willing to wager fine stall
lion or $4,000 note that the pro-
hibitionists will carry the day in Ore
gon the very next time they have an
opportunity to vote at a state elec-
tion.
That's no bluff" said Mr.. Shalley.
81 mean it. 1 know Oregon like a
book, and I've just come from a thor
ough tour of the western part OF the
state, and not long ago all over the
eastern part, selling horses. l have
made a careful study of the prohi-
bition movement down there and l
want to tell you there will be some
thing doing next election. At any
rate I am willing to back my judg-
ment with $500 of my money.
"Saloonkeepers in the Beaver state
will tell you the same thing-that Is,
If they don't think there's any chance
to spoil a sale of their property by
talking that way. Fully a fourth of
the state, / should say. is now dry
under local option, and everywhere
in the remaining three-fourths sa-
looms are for sale at about half price.
Call up some of the saloons over the
long distance and see If am not
telling you about right.
"There are more prohibitionlsts in
the state than one would think. Near
ly all those old-timers of the VILLAIN
ette valley are that way, and they're
scattered all over the state. They
are all at work as they never were
before. The prohibition movement is
just getting to the point of ripening,
and If 1t does not win out at the next
election l will be out just $500, II

PASSENGERS WANTED.

Pendleton and the surrounding
country struggled long and earnestly
to secure the Portland -Pendleton local
train on the o. R. G. \. and now that
they have a fresh, clean, regular train
between this city and Portland, many
people persist in taking the night
train If it leaves this city an hour in
advance Of the local
This morning about 20 people left
hero on No. for points west of Pen
dleton an hour before the local train
left here. No. was crowded to the
limit and the coaches had been in use
for days and yet the very people who
complained Of the crowded trains and
dirty cars before the local was put on,
will still ride on the through train
whenever they can, in preference to
the local which was put on to accom-
modate the public in eastern Oregon.
The Albany local train on the
Southern Pacific has been taken out
Of service for lack Of patronage and
the same fate will come to the Port
-Pendleton local if the people who
have made the kick for the train do
not now patronize it when they travel.

THE LITTLE THINGS OF LIFE.

A goodbye kiss is little thing,
with your hand on the door to go,
But it takes the venom out of the
sting
OF thoughtless word or cruel
fling that you made an hour
ago.
A kiss of greeting is sweet and rare
After the toll of the day,
And It smoothes the burrows plowed
by care,
The lines on the forehead you once
called fair,
In the years that have blown away.
'Tis little thing to say. "You are
kind,
I love you, DEAR" each night;
But it sends a thrill through your
heart, find,
For love is tender love is blind.
AS we climb life's rugged height.
We starve each other for loves ca
ress,
We take, but we do not give;
1t seems so easy some soul to bless
But we dole the love grudgingly less
and less,
Till tits bitter and hard to live.

ALFALFA'S GREAT VALUE.

One acre OF clover is worth three
acres of timothy, and one acre OF
alfalfa is worth three times as much
as clover. for the portein contained.
To test this statement. Professor Hall
compared the portein contents.
There are 2.S pounds portein in 100
pounds timothy hay; in 20 hundred
pounds or one ton, there is So
pounds and in one and a half tons
Ga fair yield per acre) "a pounds por-
tein.
Red clover hay has 6.S pounds pro-
tein per 100 pounds. 1876 pounds per
ton and 272 pounds in two tons "a
fair yield per acre). This is more
than three times as much protein as
that In one acre of timothy.
Alfalfa has eleven pounds protein
in 100 pounds of hay, 220 pounds in
one ton and 100 pounds protein in
one acre of five tons. There is a
little more than four times as much
protein as. in one acre OF clover
The one acre of alfalfa is worth
nine acres of timothy, considering the
protein alone.-Hoard's Dairyman.
