THE WATER SUPPLY.
Tho battlo ovor tho purity or tho Im
purity of tho Salem wator supply still
ragou.
Likqa woman's virtue, onco called
In question It Is not easily restored in
character.
If tho stato board of honlth had
wished to be fair, thoy wpuld havo
-published vital statistics of all cltlos,
liuiludlug Portland.
Thoy would havo published the num
ber of typhoid fovor oasos at Port
laud, and all tho Orognn towns, nnd
let the public drnw tholr own couclti
nlons. 'Il.ls well known that, oven with Hull
Iltin wator (tho boat In the world)
thuro havo boon hundreds of cases at
Vortlaud of typhoid fover, moro than
at Halcin In numbers.
It Is well known that about throo
times In forty yoars havo thoro bton
typhoid favor chsob at Salem, nnd
othV Valley towns, proving that tho
drinking water supply Is not tho pri
mary cause of fovor.
Tha calling In auoetlou of the purity
of the water tfupi'ly of tho valley cit
ies, and mentioning nothing about
fovera at Portland, leaves tho brand
of unsanitary conditions on all those
l)tles.
The unfairness, the Injustice, tho
malignity, to to speak, of the effect of
thu slate hoard of health's publica
tions, ought to condemn tho author of
that soreed to retirement. If not pro
fnsulonal starvation.

conditions of all the towns of Western
Oregon? Will the state board gvo the
public thq vital statistics of Portland,
alongside of all the other towns of Or
egon, and allow the people to Judge for
themselves.
Tho quostlon of wator supply Is r-no
for each community and each Individ
ual to settle. Had this board found
certain damaging facts to bo true,
which thoy did not. It would have been
tholr duty to notify tho local authori
ties, instead of flying into tho news
papers with an unfair and Injurious
sot of statements. That would have
been tho act of gentlemen and fair
minded clt'aans.
A CHALLENGE TO THE-SENATE.
The Octobor Atlantic contains
among other papers two articles of
marked value and national Import Impert
ance: Representative McCall con
tributes to the Atlantic a powerful
political article, "Tho Power of tho
Sonnte" meaning its usurpations
taking for his toxt tho startling vale
dictory words of 8peaker (to bo) Can
non at tho close of tho last session.
Ho nrralgns tho undemocratic charac
teristics of tho Sonnto and forecasts
a conflict to como between tho houses,
which ho predicts will bo decided "In
favor of those great principles of pop
ular government which underllo tho
American commonwealth."
Shortly before daybreak, In tho
closing night of tho session of tho con
gress which enmo i.o an ond on tho
4 th of last March, Mr. Cannon mado
u remarkable speech. One of tho
groat appropriation bills nocossary to
run the govornmont wns in conforenco
between tha two houses. Unless It
should pass before 12 o'clock on that
day It would bo nocossary to havo an
oxtrn session, or the whoels of soma of
the great governmental departments
would bo stopped. A sonntor had do
Ilvorod an ultimatum that an ancient
claim of his stato should bo fastoned
upon tho bill, or, as an alternative, ho
would defeat tho msasuro. Under the
rules of tho sonnto It was clearly In
tho powor of ono senator to carry on,
as long as his physical strength would
last, tho uppoaranco of dobato, which
would In no fair senso bo debate at
all, but simply a forclblo stopping of
tho legislative machine.
Mi. Cannon very unwillingly con
sented to pay the price demanded,
hut ho declared with emphasis that
"tho sonnte should chango its rules,
or that anothor body, backed up by
tho people, will compol that chango,
olso this body, close to the peoplo,
shall become a more tondor, a mero
bundor of tho prognant hlugos of tho
knoo to submit to what any ono mom-
bor of anothor body may demand of
this body ns n prlco for loglslatlon."

THE METHODIST CONFERENCE.
Tho session of the official body of
Oregon MethodlstB, Just concluded,
was ono of tho most Interesting ovonts
in tho religious development of tho
stato.
Not for any great or sonsatlonal
things done, but for putlent, Intelli
gent doallng with the work of this de
nomination, promotion of Its educa
tional Interosta and gajioral progress.
With immigration aomo now men
have como to Oregon, and that will add
strength to the personnel of tho min
istry, and strong men havo boen pro
moted, as Rnv. Parsons to bo superin
tendent of Alaska missions.
The $100,000 endowment fund for
Willamette University has been given
a tine start. Tho Mothodlst ministry
are liberal givers, for their Incomes,
probably the moat llboral body of
men In the world of rollglous effort.
The Methodist system of church or
ganisation has again shown Itself to
be a perfectly adjusted maohlno for

CORDWOOD AT A PREMIUM.
Rite In Price Will Cause Extensive
Cutting This Winter.
A Salem special says: The amount
or corriwood that will bo cut In this
vicinity this fall and winter wU bo
larger than It has been In four years.
Slice wage have advanced, and labor
haB been scarcer, the farmers have
not been outtlug much wood, and tho
supply has scarcely met the demand.
For two wlHtew there has been n
deficiency in ife local supply, and con
siderable quaatltles have been ship
ped In by rail This year the shortage
U greater than ever, and prices are
soaring. Tte protUa that are to be
made by cutting and hauling wood will
cause extensive hauling this winter,
and It It altogether probable that next
year the supply will bo plentiful, and
prices will be lower.
During the hard times second-growth
Hr sold in Salem, delivered, at ?1.S0
,to 3 a cord, aud old-growth wood
brought !.B0 to $3.7$. la those times
stumpaso had scarcely nay value.
Prices haye steadily advanced under
the stimulus of decreasing supply un
til now second-growth "wood is In de
mand at 12 50 to , and old growth flr
Is sold at not less than $4. GO per cord.
Stumpage Is worth 75 cents to 11.25
per cord, according to distance from
town, and It is not Infrequent to sec
men sell stumpage enough to pay for
the land the timber stands on. In
somo cases 'the limber has brought tho
owners scvornl times the prlco nt
paid for the land.
Tho available supply of standing
timber within hauling distance from
Salem has greatly decreased undor
the heavy consumption Incident to the
growth' of the population, tho tnultlpli
nation of jprune dryers and hop dryers,
and tho clearing of land. The fear
has been oxpressed by some that tho
fuol problem will In a few years bo a
serious ono to tho prune and hop hi
dustrles.
In past years It hns been tho custom
to haul wood from tho farming dis
tricts to tho city. While ono who rees
tho hundreds of evorgreen-covorod
hills that surround Salem would not
think so great a chango possible, it Is
predicted that some time wood will be
shipped to S.alem by rail, and then
hauled from town to tho hop dryers
and pruno dryers.
Much of Jhe timber seen on the hills
is very young, being tho growth which
has sprung up whero timber has been
removed for fuol. Tho entire deple
tion of tho local supply Is not a very
Imminent contingency, for wood that
was not marketable a fow years ago,
noy finds salo, and Is being cut
Urged on by tho high prices of this
year a largo supply will bo cut noxt
year, and the prlcos will bo some
what lowor, though probably novor so
low as to loavo tho farmer without a
good profit.
PROGRESSIVE RELIGIOUS
THOUGHT.
Man cannot remain forcvor satisfied
with material progress, howovor great
it may bo, which, from its very nature
doos not make him all ho should bo,
and knows he ought to bo. Force lies
within tho personality which wait to
bo touched Into action by motives and
purposes which nro above all temporal
and material Incentives. Within this
field God waits for tho opportune sea
son to mnko His most effective ap
peals. Tho twentieth century is wait
ing for mlraclos of power In the spirit
ual to equal thoso In tho. material
realm. Thoro aro large orea,i of un-
dovolopod territory In the Christian
man of today, and thoro aro Indica
tions that Christian manhood will
movo out of tho flold of prosont strug
gle Into the new domain of worthy
ondoavor, whero it will awaken to a
now concoptlon of tho undeveloped
powor resldont In Christendom. Tho

THE DOG POISONERS.
Apt to Get Good Dogs Only Curs are
Too Smart.
Tho man who first devised tho
spreading of poison to kill objection
ablo dogs In his neighborhood had
about as much sonso as tho character
In fable who killed the gooso that
laid tho golden oggs. It probably
nover oacurred to his massive mind
that he might kill off all tho good
dogs and never touch the howling cur.
Tho poison fiend is abroad at Sea
side and Hammond, and thus far only
valuable dogs have porlshed. It would
bo a good idoa for the officials of
those places to onforcc tho dog llcwnse
ordinance. If a roan is compelled to
pay for tho privilege of keeping a dog
he will want (o pay for a dog that Is
worth paying for, nnd in this way
many a hybrid canine will find an
early grave, and In the samo way many
a valuable animal will escape an un
timely death.
The King of All Game Birds.
(Albany Daily Herald.)
As Is well-known tho China phoas-
nuts were Introduced Into Oregon by
Hon. O. N. Denny, of Portland, then
United Status consul at Tien Tain,
China. The birds were first liberated
on the farm of John Donny, now a res
ident of Albany, in the Immediate vl
vlnlty of Peterson's llutte. In this
county, March 17 18S0. Though tho
birds havo Inoro&sod wonderfully aud
spread throughout most parts of West.
orn Oregon, they are more plentiful
here In Unn county, where thy were
flret set at liberty, than elsewhere
The China pheasant now has no
rival to tho title. MKlng of Oregon

as the best g&nio bird and sporUmon
anxiously await the beginning of the
open season. There has been mush
more Illegal hunting thai? usual this
year and yet very few arrenst have
been mado for violation of the game
law.

TO FIGHT COMBINE.
A.. H. Sundcrman Believes in More
Organization Says Stockmen
Should Stand Together and Demand
Relief From Unjust Combinations
That Nov Force Down Prices.
(Dally Pendleton East Orogonlan )
A. II. Sundcrman, is down from hlr
range on tho head, waters of tho
Grand Hondo river, and reports his
stock in fino condition for winter.
He will remain on tho summer range
for a couple of weeks yet, when ho
will movo down to the fall postures
near Pilot Rock.
Mr. Sundcrman 1b an enthusiastic
advocate of organization among tho
stockmen of tho West for tho pur
pose of combating tho meat and
packing combines. The rangemen
raise the stock, feed It and graze it,
preparo It for tho market, load It on
the cars and furnish it to these grasp
ing combines at a sacrifice, and yet
no declslvo steps are taken to fight
this method.
The trusts keep buyers In tho coun
try, living on tho fat of tho land,
drawing enormous salaries, living in
comparative case, whose business is
to hammer down prices on tho pro
ducer, and sccuro tho stuff grown on
tho farms and ranges nt less than the
actual cost of production.
Mr. Sundorman believes tho stock
men of Oregon should thoroughly
organize, mnko it a secret organiza
tion, ns In Montana, If necessary, and
stand to gether, under all circumstan
ces, to protect each othor from tho
grasping corporations that aro con
stantly pulling down tho prices o(
wool nnd livestock. In tho wool pools
each man should bo obliged to abide
by nnd support tho organization, and
thus provont agonts from using un
fair means to get Individual clips nt
reduced prices, or uso coorclvo meth
ods to boat down any ono owner.
Ho favors tho establishment of the
Independent packing plants, under
tho supervision of stockmen, as now
organized. He thinks that tho actual
stockmen of tho country, and not tho
hotel lobby stockmen, should control
the Institution, and reap tho Just prof-
Its, to which they aro entitled.
Speaking of tho coming meeting of
tho National Livestock Association
In Portland noxt January, ho thinks
tho Oregan nnd Pacific Coast stock
men should be prepared to defend
thomsclvcs against tho old ring which
has dominated the policy of the as-
soclntion for years. To do this, tho
actual stock growers should got to
gether, understand each othor, de
mand somo plain, ordinary business
action, which will release them from
the salt and transportation trusts,
and pormlt thorn to placo their out
put on tho market at something near-
or Its actual value.
Something should bo dono to snvo
the grower the profits that now go to
koep In luxury about throo usoloss
classow which aro not ongngod In
handling llvostock nnmoly tho buy
er, the commission man and tho
wholesnlo dealers,
Iletwoon the stoor or tho mutton
on tho range and tho butcher's block
are hut two mon actually needed in
the ontlro procoss tho owner of the
llvo stuff and tho railroad company.
By forming tho stockman's packing
plants tho owner, through tho asso
ciation, can put tho meat on tho block
to tho consumor as easily as tho com
mission mon put It thoro, and all
the intermediate profits would re
main In tho hands of the grower, to
be converted back again Into moro
range stock.
Saw Lovejoy's Press Destroyed.
Judge Toole of St. Joseph, now 87
yoars of ago. was 15 yoars old whon
his father moved to Alton, 111. He wit
nessed the destruction of Elijah Love
Joy's printing office, ono of tho histor
ic Incidents of tho slavery agitation,
and vividly rocalls tho picture of the
type and printing material of tho nntl
slavory leader strewed about the
ground, and tho Incldont of a mutual
friend, a minister, remonstrating with
Lavejoy because of tho pursuance of
a task boset with dangers, and hope-
loss of a final triumph. The very
words of Lovojoy yet remain In mem
ory, and tho decision and grandeur of
the man as with flashing oyo and defi
ant tones ho declared: "I am right,
and will pursuo my course, oven to
the very death." SL Joseph Rows.
