Hpon tho minutes of the, meeting of toborlMIu ' , A. U, HANUAl.I. O. K. WHI9I.KK -Q. 1). DgAN Coiumittoo. , TEDDY CAPITALIZES HIS BULLET. IT is highly diverting lo hour the wounded Colonel "Roose velt chiding his opponents for campaign abuse as tho cause oC liis being shot by a crank. No ono has begun to equal the Colonel himself as a maligner, villifioi and assailant of his opponents -in fact of all those who do not think as he does and who will not. follow Teddy. The colonel's entire campaign, from his platform to his eounness aeensations ot nan narj nan nas neen an appeal to emotion and prejudice not to reason. Tho third termer's meetings are opened by singing euntiay scnooi nymns an appeal to religions nysrena. They are followed by harrowing recital of the social wrongs with rainbow x)romises of the millenium,---appeals to class prejudice. Then come wholesale denunci ations of opponents emotional appeals to discord. But it is characteristic in the colonel to make the most, of the occasion to use it to advance his candidacy and rebuke his enemies to pose as a hero and do a little more grand-standing to affect the unthinking. There are those so uncharitable as to hint that the shooting was n pre-arranged affair designed to aid the colonel's election. This is scarcely probable. "Rut it is equally as improbable to suppose that it was the Avork of his political enemies, it was simply the act of an unbal anced crack, as the assassination of McKintey was. That it will not affect the result of the election mater ially is self-evident, for the opposition to Colonel Roosevelt' is as positive as his support -no is opposed from principle aud not from emotional hysteria. "While the entire affair is most deplorable and regretted by all, the colonel cannot justly blame either the socialists, republicans or democrats for it. If it is the result of a violent campaign he himself has led all in campaign violence. rni ii COLONEL HOFER RETIRES. COLOKEL E. HOFER has sold the Salem Capital Jour nal and retires from Oregon journalism after twenty years of labor, more or less strenuous, liis action will be universally regretted by the press and his vigorous fights and campaigns much missed. Colonel llofer has been an aggressive community buil der and used his power lo make a greater Salem "and a greater Oregon. Such men as he are needed in the sleepy towns of the Willamette valley, to awaken the people to their opportunities. There are few more thankless or hopeless tasks than that of the small town editor in a moss-back community, whose inhabitants have peacefully vegetated for decades, aucljwho filled with sectional jealousies and personal ani mosities, resent all attempts to introduce progress. In no town has the struggle been harder than in provincial Salem. The new era dawning for Salem and the Willamette valley, the era of progress due largely to invasion of new blood brought by the construction of railroads and trolley lines Was made possible largely through the public spirited efforts of Colonel Tlbfer, who for ears unselfishly devoted energy and time, as well as his newspaper to organizing and perfecting development leagues to advertise the ad-, vantages and resources as well as the needs of the valley, aud of Oregon. But for the agitation thus conducted, it Is doubtful if the railroad building now in progress would have begun. The sale of the Capital Journal calls attention to the rapid changes in Oregon newspaperdom. A great many of the papers have changed hands in the past few years, and every month the changes go on. In the past fewycars every newspaper in Jackson count' lias changed hands. In many cases, marked improvements have resulted. The newspaper has a higher function than the mere printing of news, or participation in politics. It is the marker of progress or reaction. It is an important factor in community building and country development. Such a newspaper is a community asset and merits liberal patron agc regardless of personality, faction 01; politics. Water Core Ily P. J. O'Gara, Fatholdgfst In Charge (Continued from Monday.) Susceptibility of Varieties to Wuter Core Among the commercial varieties of apples grown in this district, it 1ms been found that tho Spitzenberg. Xowtown and Baldwin aro more sua ceptlbie to water coro than Jonathan, Ben Devis and Itcd Cheek, Tho early fall apples, such as Gravensteln and othors, aro apparently not af fected. Ab explained in another part of this bulletin, even very suscepti ble varieties may not be affected under certain conditions. Old trees, weak trees, or trees that aro not rigorous growers, do not usually show wator coro in tho fruit. It is mo&tly found In the young orchards Just coming into bearing. Tho present season with, ail of tho precipitation for September coming during the first week which was followed by very warm das and cool nights, is responsible for tho more general occurence of wuter core. Ordinarily, young trees in this district show very little of this trouble. Had tho rainfall been properly distributed in September, It is quite possible that the amount of water coro oven in susceptlblo varieties would not be a factor. " l'lcklng am! Handling tho Fruit When it becomes apparent that apples aro water coring, they should bo promptly picked and placed in temporary storage. Tho iongor fruit is left upon tho tree under conditions where water core Is posslblo tho worse the trouble becomes. Water coro does not begin to mako its appearanco until about tho tlnio tho ripening process takes place In the fruit. A great deal may bo dono to segregate the water cored fruit while tho pick ing is under way. This may bo dono even where coro is not evident to tho oye, It has been shown that fruits borne far out on tho terminals and thoso on tho south or southwest sldo of the treo aro more liable to bo water cored than such fruits as aro well shaded or aro so situated as not to bo under tho Influence of extremes of temperature and sunlight. Jn picking) tho fruits from the south sldo of tho tree as well us thoso borne on tho ter minals may bo put into boxes by themselves and not mixed with tho general picking. It is particularly valuable to bo ablo to segregate suspected fruit in this wuy, especially In tho red varieties whore it is almost Impossible to dotcct water core without cutting tho fruit. With yellow fruit the" situa tion is somewhat different pxcepting whore water coro Is only in tho In-' slplont stages, Whero consldoiablo water coro Is present, It Is woll not to tako tho tlmo during picking to pack tho fruit for shipment. Tho Important thing Is to got the fruit off the trees and put It into tho packing shed or some other tomjiorary storage room whero It will not bo subjected t,o extremes of temp eruturo. , Whero a largo crop Is to bo handled, it is. of coursd, Impossible to provldo a sufficient number of lug However, shallow bins not moro than ventilation may bo constructed. If MEDFORD MSUl TRIBUNE, iii 4 of Apple boxes In which to store tho fruit. threo feet deop and providing good tho crop is not large a sufficient uum- MEDFORD, QRECION, TUESDAY.

If tho pick Hut linn boon such nn lo HORfoRnto tho nrtaslhto wator cored fruits, tho work of handing tho fruit for pmdtlnK wjll bo very much Ipwonod. Wlmt to da With Wator Cofi-rt Fruit Wator cored fruit should not bo packed for shipment, Rlnco It Is vory llablo to dotnrlornto In storage- and, besides, cannot bo classed m chntco or fancy fruit, Tho fruit Ih not dlnonsod under tho inonnlng "f tho torni, but It K u6vfl.rtholotu, poor policy to knowingly solid It out under any brand whntovor. Tho fruit hos roiuo valuo, howovor, but mostly ns elder or vinegar stock. Owing to tho fact that the tissues In tho wntor cored spots tiro broken down and tho coll coutontn dlsprannlxod tho fruit cannot ho dried or evaporated successfully, Tho water coivd spots dry out morn rapidly than tho normal tissue and become hard und leathery during the process of evaporation. As mentioned ahavo, water cored fruit hns vnluo as vlnognr and rider stock, and there U no reason why such fruits should bo wasted.

Accurate thinking is tho solo foun dation of truth. Knowledge is tho culmination of thoncht. Humanity knows nothing but thoughts euuumt ing from tlu intuitional and intolleo tuul faculties of tho individual cgO expressed in lanipinuo to govern be lief and notion of tho race through common knowledge. Kvory normal in dividual, in embryo, is an absolutely perfect creation, endowed with in stinct and intelligence to di-diugiiWh good from evil; and if it obeys in stinot and run sow implicitly it will evclop knowledge and character net'- einry to lwrfoet being of its nwv ies ns inevitably as the growth of body and tuiiid. Scientific thought on evolution and environment aro expressed in tho doctrines of mechanism, finuli-m and crcntivo evolution. McchnuNm claims that tho unixopjo is filled with superabundant and inexhaustible ma terial for tho development of life by a series of adaptions to circum stances. Fiunliom claims life is a plan of the whole, preordained to (ulminato in perfectien: and'Her gsons' Creative Involution asserts that a vital impulse de clops all forms of life from within by intuition nntl intelligence -he says: "Life does not proceed by the association und addition of elo moots by dissociation nud di vision. Intelligence in so fnr in it is innate is, tho knowledge of form; instinct' implies the know ledge of matter. The intellect is characterized by n natural inabil ity to comprohu'uMlifc. Instinct on tho contrary isj molded on the ery form of life, wliile intelligence treats everything mechanically; instinct proceeds, so to Soak', organically; if the consciousness that slumbers in it should awake, if it were wound up into knowledge instead of being wound off into action, if wo could ask and it could rcjdy, it would gho us the key'tb vital operations just us intelligence, developed nud disciplcd guides us into matter. In telligence nud instinct arc turned in opKisite directions, tho former to wards inert matter, the latter towards life. Matter the reality which descend", endures only by its connections witlithnt which ascends life nnd consciousness. Nature is mor and better thnu a plnn in course of realization. A plan is n term assigned to labor; it cloes the future whose form it indicates, liefnre (ho evolution of life on the contrary, the portals of the future remain open. It is a creation that goes on forever in virtue of'nn initial movement, This movement rousti tutes the' unity of tho organized world n prolific unity, of infinjte richness, superior to any thnt intel lect could dream of for Iho intellect is only one of its aspects or pro ducts." Civilization hns been hampered by continual subjugation of freedom of thought by precedent and authority, which is iiei essurily tentative know ledge pertaining to the third dimen sion, tho limit to the capacity of human intelligence and knowledge ever changes as intuition inspires new thought to inertuse fallible hu man understanding., Tho ptolemnio theory buried truth for iiges and confined thought to 'error, bigotry, and ftiiperntition; tho copcrnicnii theory was gradually disseminated, but ages passed boforo freedom of thought was recognized to bo an in dividual light; and it may be nues tioued whether precedent and author ity is less powerful ih tho twentieth century than it' was under tho pto lemaio theory, Tho church adlicres to precodent and authority of ciceds, confession of faith, and inspired doctrines, de structive to all freedom of thought. Constitutions of political govern" incuts, oaths of sccicl societies, nud the whole theory 'and practice of or ganization of nil kinds are bused on' fixed ideas that 'pcrvorl truth, arid render freedom of thought impossible to tho individual.

This impassible barrier blocks all political governments nnd society In general, and is iniMtxsiblo to bo re moved while tho invincible power of money rules tho world.
