Careful of His own Interests.

NafeIul OF His own interests.
Il have noticed also that while
Senator La Toilette did great work
in Kidding Wisconsin of corrupt
railroad domination. he has never
said anything against brewery DOM
ination in that state.
What | wish to make clear about
this statement is that the senator
has taken up those things which
might be termed popular and that
contained the least danger to him
self Now this may be entirely
unfair, but | have thought it and
do think it still, and / wish to say
it to you and to him face to face.
Il have known Senator La Fol
lette and of him for 80 years and
have followed his career always
with interest and with varying de-
grees of admiration and approval.
Right here let me state, so that
there can be no misunderstanding
about 1t, that If he Is nominated
(which at this moment l hope he
will not be- l will give him my
earnest and active support and will
request my friends everywhere to
support him with earnestness and
devotion.
Governor Osborn then referred to
suits brought some years ago In
Wisconsin by the democratic admin
istration against previous republican
treasurers for interest on state de-
posits that had not been turned
over to the state. Senator Phile-
tus Sawyer" said Governor Osborn,
had signed the bonds of one de-
linquent treasurer or more. The
statement is made that he stood to
lose several hundred thousand dol
lars If the state won. The story
is that he offered to retain Senator
La Toilette as an attorney in the
cases. Senator lie Follette's story is
that Senator Sawyer tried to bribe
him. But Senator Sawyer was never
prosecuted for bribery or cited II
contempt and nothing was ever
done.

various parts of the machinery in
position.
1t is estimated that four days
will be necessary to accomplish the
work, when a test run will be made.
Probably two more days will be
required to make adjustments and
readiustments and then the plant
will settle down to steady work.
1t is the intention of the manage
ment to first put the surface dumps
through the mill and these con-
tain large quantities of high-class
ore, and while this is going on thy
work of developing and blocking
out will be carried on in the mine.

known to the trade. An apple may
be a good one but, if unknown to the
trade, it is hard work to sell it at
good price. A friend of mine who
lives in Seattle, but at present is
soiourning in Tennessee, owns an or
chard in the Yakima valley. He
wants to add a few acres to his apple
orchard. With that end in view, he
has recently made inquiry about the
Akin and the Paragon. | have said
to him in replying that the Akin is
fine looking apple of fairly good
quality, rather small for good seller
and good keeper. Bot | have dis
couraged the planting of this apple
extensively for commercial purposes
for the reason that it is practically
unknown in our Western markets. l
do not call to mind that | have ever
seen the Akin in the Seattle markets.
II any one will go among the dealers
on Western avenue, Seattle, and ask
them if an apple not known will
readily sell, he will find out that
when a new apple is introduced it
will go slowly till it becomes we'll
known. The Spitzenburg, Newtown,
Winesap, Jonathan, Rome Beauty,
Delicious, Winter Banana, White
Winter Pearmain and the Mammoth
Black Twig are all we'll known and
will sell on their established reputa-
lions. My advice to my friend who
wrote me from Tennessee was not to
plant either the Akin or Paragon ex-
tensively.
| think this friend is under the
impression that the Paragon and the
apple commonly called the Black
Twig are identical. That mistake

reply to this is, it would add l79
cubic inches to our standard apple
box and allow nothing for the Eek
tention of parts" in pressing on the
top of the box which would add in
some cases as much more and in all
cases from so to 100 cubic inches.
This would be an injustice to those
using the apple box for which there
could be no compensation whatever.
We who use the apple box must be
alert and see to it that our congress
men understand this matter, and pro-
ect us from such injustice.
The effort to make the barrel the
unit Of measure in handling apples
and all other forms of measurement
to be sub multiples of this unit is
wrong. What ought to be done is for
Congress to definitely settle on some
unit of measure, a bushel, peck or
gallon, for instance, and then make
the barrel certain multiple Of that
unit. Having settled on a unit of
measure, then apples, potatoes,
onions, shelIed corn, wheat, oats,
barley, or anything else that is
measured in like quantities should
conform to that unit. My under
standing of the matter is that this
country has no fixed unit for dry
measure. What is called the Win
chester bushel has been accepted as

owing to the fact that we inherited it
from England when the thirteen
colonies were part of the English
Empire This Winchester bushel
was used in England from the time
of Henry VII to the year 1926 and
ing part of the English law that
came over to us when we set up the
government of these United States,
it remains to this day the standard
bushel of this country. In 1926 the
Imperial bushel, containing 22lo. ~
cubic inches, was introduced into
England and remains the standard to
this day. The unit Of measure there
is the gallon which must hold III
pounds of distille water weighed in
the air at 81 degrees +. and the
barometer at 30 inches, and contains
OFT. 274 cubic inches. A peck contains
two such gallons and a bushel con-
tains eight. The state of New York
has adopted this Imperial bushel OF
2219. 1872 cubic inches but the United
States still adhere to the old Win
chester bushel. 1t would be a very
important step in the right direction
if the government would adapt the
Imperial bushel with the gallon as
definite unit of measurement. Then
if the barrel was made multiple of
this bushel and three bushels con-
stituted barrel, we would have
barrel containing 6654. 6 cubic inches
or 4O1. 4 less inches than the barrel
described in this bill now before Con-
gress. We could add a half inch to
the length of our standard apple box
and then all our measurements would
be multipIes or sub multiples of the
unit of measurement. To make the
barrel the unit of measurement and
have it contain 401 more cubic inches
than three fold multiple of the Inn
perial bushel is a consumate piece OF
foolishness and shows that the mon
who are engineering such a bill

YES INDEEDY. THIS
tADy'S A BUCKARO0

Attracted by the Roundup, Miss
Carmen Falls of Portland, who claims
to be a lady broncho buster, arrived
in Pendleton yesterday morning, made
herself known to the directors of the
local show and asked for a trial on
the back of a bucking horse. AS soon
as possible she will be accommodated
in her desires and, if she demon
strates an ability as sticker, she will
probably become a feature of the fall
Roundup. She herself is confident
of her skill and is now looking for
a job a mans job. if you please. on
some Umatilla ranch so that she can
eke out an existence until the wild
west carnival of which she intends to
be a part.
Though she has lived in a big city
since childhood-she is only eighteen
now-and never had much opportu-
nifty to live the free life she loves,
Carmen says she is the buckaroo kid
Just the same. "I never was in a
saddle until four years ago" she said
this morning, but l had made up
my mind that l could ride a bucking
horse, so / went to Huntington and
told livery stable man there to
bring out bucker. They saddled one
up and / rode him with one hand
free and never pulled leather once.
That sort of encouraged me and I've
been riding ever since and haven't yet
hit the dust. l expect to some time,
for the best of them get thrown.
ANY sister? No; but l got a
brother that ought to be girl. He'd
rather sit in chair and play with
doll than ride horse. Some how
or other l was born the boy of the
family and it's none of your inside life
for me. 1 want job now. No,
amt no cook and don't want job
inside of the house. If some farmer
wants hand to buck sacks, pitch
hay or skin six or eight mule team,
send him to me. I've done it before
and l can do it again, and I've simp-
ly got to stay for the Roundup"
Miss Falls says she will take a try
at any horse except Long Tom and
Teddy Roosevelt. She hasn't seer
either one of these animals perform
but she knows their reputation an6
has seen pictures of their tactics TIL,
