WHAT is DOING

A WORD ABOUT THE LEADING
EVENTS OF THE WEEK.
These Are orsn osys sure.

Pittsburg is deeply stirred over the rev
eIations of graft among city eouncilmen.
The opportunity to confess and receive
immunity was taken by many, bat some
did not come forward, and will be prose-
cuted. There is an abundance of evi-
dence. An attempt to bribe jurors con-
sideting the cases was brUkeu up by de-
tectives. Men with plenty Of money
we're hanging about the jurors to fix
them. Since the investigation hegaD,
four men have been landed in the peni-
tentiary, another is under sentence, two
await sentence, forty-one are under in
dictment and thirty councilmen have
confessed. The bribes ran from $4,000
down TO SSi. 10, the bargain rate. One OF
the scandals was the division OF tlOO,O 600
furnished by national hanks among the
couneilmen in order TO secure the deposit
of city funds at the banks. The federal

ness The funds have been ordered

White Cross Conference.

About q hundred milk producers met
q. 4. Miller, manager OF the White Cross
Milk company, at the meeting called in
Grange hall Tuesday afternoon to estab-
lish the price OF milk for the next six
months. Albert Tatro was chosen to pre-
side, and the object of the meeting was
stated by b. A. Manchester aud fully dis
cussed by others present.
W. s. Bryant, w. w. Jones, Carmi
White, A. c. Snow and Charles Dapyow
were elected a committee to name fair
price per hundred pounds OF milk from
April 1st to Oct. LIST and after consulta-
tion together, agreed on the following
schedule April, s1.6b; May, si.40;
June, t1.40; July, sl.50, August, si.70;
September, f1.70-aVeraging f1.665-6.
These prices were Immediately reported to
the meeting but only fourteen out of the
hundred there were willing to accept
them, the rest considering the average
below the real value of their product.
Mr.. Miller would not agree to the sehed-
ule either as his average OF s1.45 per hun
dred was, in his opinion, high enough.
In this deadlock, it was voted to furn-
ish the White Cross plant with milk un-
til the 18th of April, when a satisfactory
price will be agreed upon, or the patrons
can withdraw their supply.
In the evening the members of the com
mittee met Mr.. Miller in consultation at
the Inn and he submitted this schedule
for their considerations April, Si.60;
May, S1.40; June, S1.S0; July, S1.40i
August, s1.6O; September, sl.70; or an
average price OF s1.5O for the six months.
He also said that he would be willing to
allow the farmers to separate the cream
themselves during three months in the
winter, il they so desired, and retain bali
of the skim milk on which to raise their
calves, the other half of the skim milk and
the cream to be brought to the factory,
which will pay the market price for the
sweet cream. The proposition in regard
TO the skim milk was made, because the
farmers are beginning to realize that the
raising OF young stock has been neglected
since all the milk has been taken off the
farms for delivery at factories or ship
ment to the city. Herds must Inevitably
decline and the price of cattle increase
il more calves are not raised
to replenish the dairies, part Of whose
product needs to be used right where il is
produced in order to serve the best inter-
ests OF the farmer.
Mr.. Miller stated that milk must be
delivered at the factory just as it is pro-
dueed without dilution by water and
that, in the event OF any such dilution be-
ing detected, be should take steps to pros
erute the guilty parties. He will also
require personal notice from each OF the
White Cross patrons, who refuse to sup
ply the factory with milk after April 10.

make. In fact the horse nowhere
near pays for his keep during these
months. The same feed given to cat
tie, sheep or hogs would give just as
great value in manure and would al
so give an income in the form of
milk, wool and flesh. The engine
has consumed nothing and so costs
nothing, during these months.
The heaviest, hardest and most
important work of the year comes in
the spring, Immediately following
spell of idleness. The horses have not
been doing enough to keep them in
good working condition. They can
not be rushed much when the wealth
er permits eone to work, The engine

ginning. And here is where l get

SUPPLANTING HORSES.

In the Technical World for Decem-
Der there appears an interesting ar
ticle upon Making the Farm Fac

using machinery instead of horses for
farm work the writer has the follow
ing:

hundred and sixty acres, 1 kept reg
ulary three work horses, hiring ex-
ira horses when haying and thresh-

fewer extra horses during the rush

work than before.

men and horses required on the farm
is not the only valuable feature in an

LA FOLLETTE'S VIEW.

In the view of Senator La Toilette
the people have rebuked the Taft
administration and have rebuked the
idea of having legislation dictated
from Morgan's private office. But he
says the democratic party won no VIC
tory in the recent election.
This statement is true despite the
fact that many democratic COVER
nors were chosen and despite the fact
that the next house of representa-
tives will be democratic. People fell
back upon the democrats as re-
fuge from the republicans. In some
cases democrats were placed in pow
er because in those states the stand
pat'' variety of republicanism pre-
vailed. In other states and notably
New York, the alignment in the re-
cent election was conservative dem
ocrats versus progressive republicans.
Roosevelt's man Stimson was defeat
ed through an alliance between Tam
many hall, Wall street and the dis
gruntled standpat republicans. The
election of Dix as governor was a vic
tory for the reactionaries, not for
democracy.
What the future will bring forth is
difficult to forecast at this time. But
1t is entirely possible the two great
parties may change places. If Roos-
evelt and his followers win out and
make the republican party progress
sive it will be natural for the great
interests to concentrate their forces
for the election of a conservative
democrat as the next president. They
may be able to elect democrat like
Gaynor, Harmon or Wilson. They
will not elect a progressive democrat
Politics is strange business.

\ BLESSING IN DISGUISE.

Commenting upon the defeat of the
Orchard county bill the Freewater
Times had the following fearful and
eloquent eulogy Thursday:
Among the many slain in the bat
tie of the ballots on November s, we
drop a tear over the fallen form of
Orchard county. Among those who
knew her best she was dearly be-
loved, and will be greatly mourned.
Her enemies were not acquainted
with her great merits and did her to
death by many thousands of stabs.
Her ghost still oveys around US. Some
day she will have a resurrection, and
her name so expressive of delight
will one day find undying fame as one
OF the counties of this good old state.
As was said in the early days of
Christianity, concerning a beloved
maiden who died martyrs death,
She will rise again" So, concerning
our beloved friend, the fair maiden.
Orchard county, we write on her
tombstone the words which give us
hope: she will rise again."
Come cheer up gentlemen. You
fought a good fight and lost. But you
are still part of the finest county in
the state of Oregon. The defeat of
Orchard county was blessing in dis
guise for the people of the east end.
