"I remember well President Lin coln's first meeting with Oncrnl (.rnnt. It occurred on the 8th of March. 18U, at it public reception in the White House." This statement wns mmle by Hon. Smith Stimmel, of Fargo, North Da kota, one of the few surviving mem bers of Abraham Lincoln's body guard, and the only one of the com pany who is talking about this exper ience on the lecture platform. Last summer he went to Norway as a member of the commission appointed he irnve it n regular shake: 'How are you. (Jencriil (tianU I am glad to see you.' Then he threw his arm about (mint's shoulders, drew him close to his side and bending over for he towered far above, he said something, evidently intended for the General's ear alone. "The word was quickly pa-sed around that the man of the hour was present, and the crowd became so dense that Grant and Seward were un able to puss into the Kast room. It was then that the bodyguard was call- by Governor Hanna, who in behalf of j ed into action, a number of whom hap the citizens of North Dakota, pre-1 pened to be present, mostly in ine ali mented a statue of President Lincoln j te-room, as we did not presume to to the kingdom of Norway.

At someone s suggestion we formed a wedge-shaped angle, within which stood the two men. The wedge forced its way thro' the crowd into the east room to a so fa against the wall, standing upon which the General was formally intro duced to the company by the Secre tary.

When the Oregon State Legislature began i the third w eek of the session all the j important measures of general inter- ' est. such as prohibition legislation, taxation amendments, the appropria tion bills, consolidation of boards and . commissions, highway legislation, changes in election laws, still remain- j ed to be passed upon. j The senate gave evidence of a de- ' sire for economy when it voted to abolish the state decennial census, re pealed the law carrying an appropri ation for the naval militia and to abol ish the state accountancy board. j The house also passed a census re peal bill and it is expected that the ' two houses will concur on one meas ure and withdraw the other. A measure abolishing the state im migration commission, which has been costing $15,000 a year, passed both houses What is also regarded as in line with the economy policy was the ac tion of the house in passing the Schue bel b:ll providing that all but an ex cepted few of the state funds be placed in the general fund Advocates of this measure claim it will result in a con sideraMe annual aavinc to the state.

(Written for the Malheur Enter prise by Tetcr Radford, Lecturer Na tional Farmers' Union.) King Cotton has suffered more from the Huropean war than any other ag ricultural product on th American continent The shells of the belliger ents have bursted over his throne, frightening his subjects and Bhntter Ing his markets, and. panic stricken, the natJon cries out "God save the king!" People from every walk of life have contributed their mite toward rescue work. Society has danced before the king; milady has decreed that the family wardrobe shall contain only cotton goods; the press has plead with the public to "buy a bale"; hankers have been formulating hold tug plans; congress and legislative bodies have deliberated over relief measures; statesmen and writers have grown eloquent expounding the inalienable rights of "His Majesty" and presenting schemes for preserv Ing the financial integrity of the stricken staple, but the sword of F.u rope has proved mightier than the pen of America in fixing value upon this product of the sunny south. Prices have been bayoneted, values riddled and markets decimated by the battling hosts of the eastern hemisphere unti' the American farmer has suffered a war loss of $400,000,000, and a bale of cotton brave enough to enter a Furopean port must pay a ransom of half its value or go to prison until the war is over. Hope of the Future Lies In Co-operation. The Farmers' Union, through the columns of the press, wants to thank the American people for the friend ship, sympathy and assistance given the cotton farmers in the hour of dis tress and to direct attention to co operative methods necessary to per manently assist the marketing of all farm products. The present emergency presents as grave a situation as ever confronted the American farmer and from the view point of the producer, would seem to justify extraordinary relief meas ures, even to the point of bending the constitution and straining business rules in order to lift a portion of the burden off the backs of the farmer, for unless something Is done to check the Invasion of the war forces upon the cotton fields, the pathway of the Furopean pestilence on this continent will be strewn with mortgaged homes and famine and poverty will stalk over the southland, filling the highways of Industry with refugees and the bank ruptcy court with prisoners. All calamities teach us lessons and the present crisis serves to Illuminate the frailties of our marketing meth ods and the weakness of our credit system, and out of the financial an guish and travail of the cotton farmer will come a volume of discussion and i mass of suggestions and Anally a solution of this, the biggest problem n the economic life of America, If. Indeed, we have not already laid the 'oundatlon for at least temporary re lief. More Pharaohs Needed In Agriculture. Farm products have no credit and . erhaps can never have on a perma nent and satisfactory basis unless we hulld warehouses, cold storage plants, elevators, etc., for without storage and credit facilities, the south Is corn relied to dump its crop on the market at harvest time. The Fanners' Unions n the cotton producing states have for the past ten years persistently d vocated the construction of storage Tacilities. We have built during this period J.00O warehouses with a ca : acity cf approximately 4,000.000 bales and looking backward the result ould seem encouraging, but looking 'orward. we are able to hous less than one-third of the crop and ware houses without a credit system lose 0 per cent of their usefulness The tvblem is a gigantic one too great for the farmer to solve unaided.
