PUBLIC SYMPATHY WITH AGENTS
OF CORRUPTION.

The punishment of subordinate
agents of corruption is often alleviated
by public sympathy as frank in express
sion as it is obscure in motive.
This is less acute in the case of a
jury fixer supposedly employed by per-
sons in peril of shameful punishment.
But it is the only explanation of a
long career of immunity in the more
dignified vocation of legislature fixer.
If there are degrees of shame where
all is 80 deep, the go-between of legis-
lative corruption is less guilty than
those he buys Or those for whom he
buys them. He is easier to catch;
that is all, and public opinion is a lit
tie Indifferent to his capture while the
others go free.
Men returned TO either house of the
state legislature year after year by
constituencies of the highest wealth
and responsibility may pursue the
shameful trade for a long time with
only the penalty of private igH omy
This is not because public sentiment
is corrupt; it is because public opinion
shrinks from vengeance upon \ mere
tools
That sentiment is irrational, be&ause
the dirty business could not be None
without the obscure tools. If then GO
betweens are created by the respAct-
able bribe- givers with influence noAgt

WILL DRILL FOR OIL
IN THE BOISE VALLEY.

STAR Boise, Feb. 3.-Messrs. Taylor
and Polk, the oil magnates from Pay
cite, and who, by the way, have some
of the blood of Zachariah and James K
respectively coursing through their
veins, are leasing oil lands in the val
ley four miles above Star. They have a
lease on the farm of Phelps Everett
and will put down we'll at once. The
slOughs on this farm are tainted with
an oily substance closely resembling
deoderized petroleum and have led oil
rrospectors to pronounce it mighty
good trail. Additional farms are to be
taken into the project Immediately and
before long the derrick will be in evil
dence in this region.
1t is thought by some oil prophets
that Star has a better show than other
places that are nearer to the break
off, caused by ancient volcanoes. The
fire has not been in SO close proximity
here and if oil ever did exist at all
anywhere in this region, the undis-
turbed valley along the Boise is more
liable to have some of it left than
those places contingent to the intense
fire and upheavals that were one day
present along the banks of the Snake.

the mortgage from their farms, many
have battled through long, troubled
lives. and passed away, broken in

lift the load of debt from their homes.
They left poor lands, dilapidated barns
and crumbling dwellings, covered with
mortgages, as legacies to their sons

What a difference in the present day
situation on the farms of this state.
The mortgage is no longer a necessity,
but resorted to only as financial con-
venience. The man who goes into dept
does it as an investment. He can see
the future side of the gulf covered
with signs of profit. The little fruit

only a few years to produce results. 1t

HOUSE BUILT OF APPLES

The Yakima Herald tells a good
story of success from a small orchard
in that irrigated realm of Central
Washington. A fruit grower planted
four acres 70 apples of the Winesap
variety. He gave the little fruit grove
proper attention in cultivating, irrigat-
ing and spraying. Last year the crop
was large, and the fruits of choice,
marketable size. The demand for such
apples was good and the prices fair.
The grower disposed of the products
from that four-acre orchard for $4,000.
with the funds he erected one of the
finest modern homes in that section.
Every dollar expended came from the
apple orchard of 1907. The family has
entered the residence AMI taken pos
session of it, free from the shadow of
mortgage.
Building home from the products
OF the soil is no new thing to the
farmers of Washington. Tho money is
made so quickly that even the builder
often wonders how he came to cast
his lot in such pleasant places as

home by shooting himself. With three
nephews, Charles, Henry and Gage
Whitney, he had just returned from
shooting a chicken hawk on his place.
They placed their guns in rack in the
house and the three young men went TO
the front gate to await the coming OF
a team in which to ride home. While
there they saw their uncle leave the
house and walk to and around the
barn and the next instant heard re-
port. Rushing to the corner of the
barn, they saw Mr.. Whitney fall and
found him breathing his last, with his
clothing on fire at the spot where the
charge entered the body, which was
nowder burned. He had evidently
placed the gun on the ground put the
muzzle to the pit of his stomach ana
pushed the trigger with stick. A
singular thing was that the gun was so
close to the body that the conclusion
recocked the weapon.
Mr.. Whitney suffered from nervous
ness and insomnia and worried consid-
erably over trivial matters. He was 90
years of age we'll known and con-

COLUMBIA RIVER a.

is Only partially open to navigation.
The government has been repeatedly
importuned to open the river, and in

on both sides of the stream estimates
of the cost are now being made in the
office of Mr. Ricksecker and will be
forwarded to Maj. H. NJ Chittenden,

Three bullets entered the body of

with carbines concealed in their cloth

the guns were hastily produced and
five shots startled the neighborhood.
The police Immediately opened fire on
the assassins, and two of them were
killed in their tracks while in
the act of pouring another volley of
bullets at the royal carriage.
| A scene of widest confusion followed
the shooting, though it was several
moments before it could be realized
! that PortugaPs ruler was no more. A
strong guard accompanied the royal
carriage, but so well had the whole af-
fair been planned that the two wound
ed occupants of the vehicle were with
ing in their death agonies before the
mounted police could take action.

one of them committed suicide after
being placed in prison. One of the
