WASHINGTON GOSSIP.

THE voice Of the people Of Oregon,
expressed lat the polls in the early
part Of next year, will have an i'm
portant bearing and influence upon
the action Of the conventions of the
two great political parties in 1872"
said Representative John G. Floyd of
Arkansas. Two months before eth
er of the conventions is held, Oregon
will vote, under its recently adopted
system, for the choice of delegates to
the conventions. These delegates will
be instructed for both presidential
and vice presidential candidates.
THE Oregon primary will take
place in April, 1912, and, while It is
more than q. year of, candidates Of
both parties already are active, and
doubt not that no stone will be left
unturned by any Of the candidates to
have Oregon express a preference,
for the influence 1t will have upon
delegates from other states. Western
politicians profess to believe that
Senator La Toilette or some other
progressive will carry Oregon.
But more significant, and perhaps
more interesting than the fight among
the Republicans; 10 the feeling Of Or
egon- voters. toward the Democratic
candidate. It has been asserted by
friends Of Gov. Woodrow Wilson and
Gov: Harmon; that plans are already
making for the Enforcement Of one Of

of the most thrilling dramas in tn,

Flowing six inches deep will give the
roots twice as much soil. as there
will then be four inches that is turn
ed by the pillow that will be moist.
Flowing eight inches will furnish
three times as much soil. The fact
that the plant can not get much out
of the subsoil or that layer below that
which is plower is demonstrated by
the fact that the crops will not do

always growing smaller there than
outside of it. They will certainly
have more moisture as their roots
will be deeper. Moisture however
does not do the plant much good be-
fore it gets into the surface soil.
There, is where the plant food is that
is available and It takes the moisture
to bring 1t into solutions
The. second principle Of saving
moisture is to keep the surface soil
loose. Moisture can pass up through
ia compact soil but not through a
loose one. The harrow is good tool
to make the soil mulch with. and it
should be used after each rain as far
as possible. Grain can also be har-
rowed after it is up three to four and
till it is up ten inches high. Care
must be used. A good time to do the
narrowing is the day after a rain
provided that the soil is not wet so
as to stick to the leaves and hold
them down. Another point that must
{. be kept in mind is drifting of the soil
Where that is the case it may in some
instances be we'll not to harrow al
all. The disc can be used in such
cases to make the soil mulch. The
cause Of the drifting is the using ur

simultaneously few tri- colors were
Displayed in other quarters Of the city.
Many japanese and white flags also
appeared.
The radical element has gained the
ascendancy here and Taotai Chang
was compelled to flee to Hong Kong
during the night. The city is in great
confusion. There was a panic among
the populace today over a report that
Manchus from Foo Chow had poison

Proprietress of SanatOrium Be-

Authorities Want to Save Girl

Wichita, Kan, Nov. 14-Baring her
shame to the world to save the name
of q man she had never seen the Enid,
Ok, girl with whom the name of Prof
Ralph Jackson was linked in a story
published here last week cOrrOborated
the story told by the keeper of the re-
treat but denied that the man in the
case was the missing Sterling, Kan,
teacher.
But the story will have its good re-
suits, after all. Prior to the telling
of the story it was not known that
sanitariums wherein infant murder
fiourished existed in Wichita Now
there seems to be little doubt of such
a conoltion. The officers are 1nvest1-
eating and while there IS disposition
not to push criminal proceedings Tor
the sake of the girl, it is considered
certain that some action will be taken
against the proprietress of the place.
Wonan's Story Starts 1t.
Last week Mrs. Miller declared that
Prof Jackson had taken the Enid girl
to her home and later disappeared after
announcing that he would never be
seen again. When the girl, known as
Miss Ola" but whose real name is an
entirely different one, saw the publish
ed account of Mrs. Miller's Identified
ton she determined to clear the name
of the missing teacher. She then no
tilted the chief of police of her where
abouts and said she could produce the
man who took her to the sanitariuTn
if it was necessary to do so in order
to clear Jacksons name
Does Not Know Jackson.
Her story is believed by local Off
GERS and the search for Jackson is be-
ing made along other lines. The wo-
man declares she does not know and
has never seen Jackson
The authorities are between two fires
The girl made friends when she vol
unfairly told her story to save the
name of another. If the keeper of the
sanitarium is prosecuted the name of
the man and woman must become pub
lie If the woman is shielded the pro-
nrietress will escape.
