WEALTH OF OREGON.
The Union Pacific passenger depart
ment has issued its seventh edition of
the pamphlet, "Wealth and Resources
of Oregon," revised up to date. It is an
interesting book of 100 pages, and deals
with its subject in an intelligentfair
and impartial manner. Of the state in
general, its location, area and physical
features, it says :
"Its area is 95.274 square miles, or
nearly 64,000,000 acres' It is as large as
all the New England states, with Indi
ana added, and larger than New York
and Pennsylvania combined. To more
fully impress the reader with the liberal
proportions of Oregon, it may be added
that it is half as large as France, nearly
twice as large as old England, five times
as large as Switzerland, and seven times
the size of Holland. Oregon has a pop
ulation of over 300,000. Were it as
closely settled aa Switzerland, it would
have 12,000,000 . peajJe; as France,
about 17,000,000; as Holland, about 25,
000,000, or as England at least 40,000,000,
- In its proportion of productive and of
waste land, it will compare, well with
the average foreign countries named.
In soil or climate or other conditions af
fecting the growth of vegetation or com
merce or commerce interests, the com
parison would be vastly in favor of Ore'
gon. Situated between the parallels of
42 and 46:18 north latitude, this state
is not unlike, in climate and physical
characteristics, Virginia and Tennessee,
Oregon affords a vast area of farming
lands, the best conditions to wasrant
the production of heavy crops without
a failure for ages and a climate above
all others, enabling the husbandman to
work out doors at something every
-month in the twelve. In its proportion
of productive to waste lands, it will com
pare well . with the average of countries
of similar extent. In soil or climate, or
in any condition affecting the growth of
crops, the comparison would be vastly
in favor of Oregon. The truth is, there
is little land in that vast region that is
not good for something, being adapted
to either wheat, barley, oats, hay, pas
ture, fruits, vegetables, timber, mining,
oi something else. There are those who
claim that there is no state in the union
where there is less wasteland in propor
tion to the total jirea than in Oregon
and, as remarked by an eminent trav
eler: "Here nature does not divide her
rain and sunshine into two great halves;
as she metes them out in California.
Here it rains and shines by turns, as
smiles and tears alternate on those
happy faces never distorted by immod
erate laughter, nor drawn down by per
sistent grief." In many sections the
grass is green the year round. The soil
is as black and rich as the mud of
Egypt. The farmer can seed all fall un
til Christmas, or all the spring from
February to May.
"So finer fruits of the kind raised in
Oregon in flavor and size comparing
favorably with the best California varie
ties are produced in any quarter of the

eight feet the first year, and bear fruit
the second, third or' fourth year accord'
ing to variety. They' thrive in the val
leys as well as on the foothills, and up
to a considerable height in the mount
ains, but . especially in sheltered, dry
soil. At recent fairs, yearling prune,
peach and plum treee, eight feet four
inches high, and cherry trees seven feet
high were exhibited. Apples, pears
peaches, grapes, cherries and the vari
ous small fruits, which for size, beauty
and excellence of flavor are not excelled
on the globe, are grown in the orchards
of that region. Pear blossoms along
the Columbia in February and March;
harvest-apple9 ripen in July.
"Oregonhas for years been the great
eattle center of the Pacific Northwest.
It is also noted for its production of
horses and sheep. The mild winter cli
mate, the fact that the native grasses
remain green during the most of the
year, and the ease with which cultivated
grasses can be raised, together make
Oregon an excellent country for raising
every kind ot stock, The general prac
tice ;of Western Oregon farmers is to
provide fodder for only a part of the
year, allowing stock to roam at large
during the greater part of it; while in
Eastern Oregon ; vast numbers have
never tasted prepared food.
a weniy-nve inousana square miles,or
16,000,000 acres, of the mountain and
coast lands of Oregon are covered by a
growth of timber each as, in diversity
an size, no other like-space on the
earth's surface can boast of. Yon can
pick your way for miles through these
forests, where the ground could not give
room for the cord wood of trees felled
and, worked up. ; If "inexhaustible"
were not a term unknown to the lexi
con of this age, we should apply it to
the timber supply of the Coluubia
river.
In its food fishes, this region has a
mine of wealth better than its richest
vein of gold or silver. Its innumerable
rivers, creeks and rivulets, snow-fed andj
mountain-born, clear almost as the
azure above, are inhabited by myriads
of salmon, trout, grayling and other fish,
gamey and eager enough for the bate, to
make the real disciple of Isaak Walton
question whether he ever fished before.
But its great rivers, bays and sounds are
so alive with the fish ef commerce that
they have a more important interest to
the thoughtful economist. Salmon of
many varieties abound in millions and
are taken and canned by the thousands
daily, nearly 50,000 cases, 24,000,000
cans, 36,000,000 pounds, having been ex
ported last year. .
JOIN AND SEE.
The action of the pope concerning
secret societies will not hurt the latter
materially, but will injure the church.
The societies, as such, will pay no at
tention to the matter, as religion and
politics are strictly forbidden in all, or
nearly all secret societies. Each recog
nizes the right of every. member to wor-.
ship God according to the dictates of his
conscience. The reason given for the
DODe's action is hardlv satisfactory. If
he, or anyone else, wants to know
whether or not there is anything harm
ful in anv secret order, the means of
finding out are convenient. There is
nothing to prevent preacher, priest or
pope joining these societies, as the only
questions asked in joining most of them
are, "Do . you believe in a Supreme
Ruler of the universe?" and "Are you
in good bodily health?"
Secret societies are for benevolent pur
poses only; they are fighting no creed,
no religion ; on the contrary they in
culcate good morals, friendship, charity,
benevolence, love, truth and hope.
James G. Fair, the greatest of all the
miners who won fortunes from the Corn
stock, and ex-United States senator
from Nevada, died at San Francisco late
Friday night last. His will shows that
the supreme selfishness that guided him
through life, remained and abided with
him in disposing of his vast wealth.
His only public bequests are three, to
the orphan asylums in San Francisco,
and aggregating $125,000. As the stock
gambling, in which Fair was a promi
nent manipulator, aided largely in fill
ing the said asylums, the gift is appro
priate. In many respects Fair was a
remarkable man. As a reader of hu
manity he had few equals ; for bull-dog
pertinacity he excelled Grant, and for
cold-bloodedness be out-froze Cleve
land. He will pass out of the memory
of his fellows, however, very quickly,
for he was not a man who made friends.
"James Elkins, who has been on a trip
to the Carol in as with horses, has re
turned to Albany," says the Oregonian
yesterday. It then quotes Mr. Elkins
as saying he had "just escaped the big
eastern storm, but at Ogden there was
about six inches of snow and at The
Dalles -two feet." When Mr. Elkins
passed through here, if within the past
two weeks, there was not a particle of
snow here. What might be called the
first snow of the season fell last night,
and to the depth of two inches. If Mr.
Elkins other statements concerning his
trip are as truthful aB that referred to,
he will be able to act as amusement
committee for his home town for a year
to come Mr. Elkins waB mistaken just
twenty-four inches in that two-foot
statement.
The horrible affair at Silver Lake
Christmas eve, in which forty men
women and children lost their lives, is
the most dreadful and heartrending ca
tastrophe that ever occurred in Oregon.
It seems inconceivable that the fire was
not smothered at once, for this certainly
could have been done, according to the
reports of the affair. It is quite proba
ble, however, that those who could have
smothered the blaze, thought they could
successfully remove the burning lamp
from the building. Silver Lake is an
isolated community, and the appalling
disaster has almost depopulated it. It
is situated about ninety miles south, or
east of south of Prineville and the sup
plies for the place are nearly all shipped
from here.'
About the most satisfactory work the
Lexow committee has done 'is the im
plicating of that holier-than-thou man
Anthony Comstock in accepting bribes.
Mr. Comstock denies, of course, that he
ever did, or could or would take a bribe,
but the witnesses swear they paid it.
Comstock has been accused of accepting
bribes by a Philadelphia paper for years,
but nobody paid any attention to it.
It is now plain that Mt. Rainier has
not been smoking. What Seattle people
saw was the smoke of the senatorial
battle being waged or wagered between
Spokane and Walla Walla. It was prob
ably the resultant fire when Ankeny's
metallic substance impinged on Wflaon's
flinty cheek. Tacoma not being in line,
of coarse the smoke did not appear to
come from the mountain. ,
A NEW. FORAGE PLANT.
Our attention was first called to Poly'
gonum Sachalinense, .called ins France
Sacaline, some three years ago by ft Kafc
sian correspondent, whose .claim for
seemed to us at the time not only start
ling and wonderful, but extravagant in
the extreme, and we confess that one of
the main reasons ot our tnp to Europe
the past summer was to learn more of
this wonderful forage plant, and we must
join in the beginning of this article, in
the words of the Queen of Sbeba, when
she saw the glories of Solomon, that the
half had not been told her, for no praise
can be too fulsome and no language too
extravagant to fullv describe this re
markable jorage plant.
Polygonum Sachalinense belongs
to
the buckwheat family, and was first in
trod need into Germany and France from
Russia, and was cultivated in gardens as
an ornamental plant, on account of its
rich, luxuriant, tropical appearance,
The plant is a native of the island Sacb
alin. from where it was brought into
Russia. Mr. Max Kolb, agricultural in
s Dec tor of Germany, obtained the first
specimens in St. Petersburg in 1869.
planted same in the bottanical garden at
Munchen, whefe be noted with much
pleasure its quick and rapid growth, its
luxuriant foliage and ornamental qual
ities. It was a number of years later
that he first discovered its great value as
a forage plant from the fact that it be'
longed to the buckwheat family, and
ever since his voice and pen have been
busy in extolling its merits, and we
must say that we- found Europe awake
to this plant, especially so amongst agri
cultural writers and farmers in France
Germany, Belgium and Holland. Near
Frankfurt, Germany, there is a planting
of Sacaline five years old, which in ver
dure and vigor seems to rival the growth
of the tropics, and the illustration given
herewith gives an excellent view of
planting of this superb plant in Europe,
It is found in small quantities or patches
throughout above named couatries, and
is being rapidly planted by all farmers,
One acre of this wonderful plant will
bring more green herbage than five to
ten acres of any clover or fodder plant
now in use in Germany, as the yield is
something fabulous, and were it not for
the hearty endorsement this plant re
ceives from all prominent agricultural
writers in Europe, we would not dare
here to mention the tremendous yield
that farmers tell us can be obtained per
acre. From this plant, one farmer as
serted that 250 tons of green foliage per
acre were obtained by him, while others
more modest in their assertions, claim
as high as 80 to 120 tons, which yield is
so remarkable that it seems almost in
credible, and. yet why should not 240
tons be grown per acre, when the leaves
of the plant measure 9x13 inches ; are
heavy, Bucculent and rich in food matter
and while the stalks in great numbers
spring up like teosinte or branching
doura, attain the height ot sixteen to
twenty feet, while the average growth of
a plant, well established, is from twelve
to sixteen feet per annum? The plant
increases quite rapidly, and sends forth
each year many new stems, which are
closely set and are closely covered with
leaves, so much so that the stems are al
most hidden, at least this was the case
with some we saw growing in Europe.
One patch had attained the height of
eighteen leet. it is relished alike by
sheep, horses and cattle, though the
latter seem to eat it more greedily, either
in tb e green or in the dry state, and on
strong, well-established plantings, which
are left standing, cattle feed all winter.
With the first sign of returning spring,
the plants shoot' forth new stems with
such vigor and rapidity as to call forth
genuine surprise. The plants, or better,
a cluster of roots have every appearance
of a strong,, four-year-old asparagus
plant with its dozen strong, rich shoots
above ground. The color of the stems
as they push up through the soil is
white, and at this stage they are eatable,
and of a quality fully equal to asparagus ;
indeed, we are told that some had been
offered in Frankfurt in July and sold as
asparagus. This was obtained from the
fact that a planting had been cut for
fodder and immediately sent forth new
shoots, which are cut and sold as as
paragus.
The Sacaline is perfectly hardy and
flourishes on a great variety of soils, or
as a German farmer places it: "It
laughs at cold and scoffs at drouth or
heat," and goes right on growing, re
gardless of soil, climate, or- water. In
Germany and France it has been tested
on all sorts of soils. It was found to do
exceedingly well on - marshy soil, bat
equally well on rich uplands, while on
sandy' soils, in stony places, on hill
sides where no othe? fodder plant did
well, Sacaline would find nourishment,
hold its own, and yield heavily. One
cluster we noticed near Stuttgart, grow
ing between rocks where nothing else
seemed to flourish, yet Sacaline : had
gained a foothold and bad reached the
height of fifteen and.one-half feet. . This
was in August and the plant still grow
ing. I his cluster was three years old,
grown from a single root, and had, at
the time of our counting, 103 fine, tall
stalks. If this can be had under the
most unfavorable conditions, what will
it not accomplish with proper care on
our rich soils? : ,
In above lines we have spoken of Saca
line more in a general way. In our
next article we will introduce a goodly
number of American testimonials higq
in authority. The plant", here seems to
be doing equally as well as in Europe,
and we firmly believe that in the spring
of 1895, one million plants will be set
out and much seed sown.: The seed of
the Sacaline is very expensive, being
held at about (25 per pound. '

Some of the railroad commissioners
claim that Engineer Sherman was to
blame for the accident at the Summit.
Sensible people put the blame on the
ra'lroad commissioners for. allowing
trains to be run over the roads longer
than the sidings. Further blame is at
tached to them for not insisting on the
roada having three brakemen whenever
more than twenty-cars are hauled in
one train. The railroad commissioners
are excellent gentlemen, but the. com
mission itself is a useless and expensive
wart on the body politic.

Concerning; That JEdlct.
St. Paul, Dec. 31. J. F. Hilcher,
grand chancellor of the Knights ot
Pythias of the Bjate of Minnesota, to
day Addressed a letter to Rt. Rev. S. G.
Missmer of Greenbay, Wis., -regarding
an interview given out by the latter on
the decree of the Roman Catholic church
putting a ban on Odd Fellows and the
K. of P. In the interview Rev. Miss
mer said :
"There never had been objection to
Catholics belonging to the lower degrees
of any of these secret societies : in their
degrees men are only banded together
for mutual benefit and pleasure. But in
the higher degrees the principles and
teachings of thesejsocieties are distinctly
anti-Christian and contrary to the prin
ciples of the Catholic church."
Mr. Hilcher says : "I deny the charge
you make against the order of the
Knights of Pythias and I publicly chal
lenge you to prove your assertion. You
owe this to the American public, to your
own church and in a special manner to
the societies to whom your accusation
falls."

heart seemed to stop beating;, at others ft
beat loudly and fast, and occasionally a
sharp pain shot through It for an instant.
Any severe exercise save me a distressing
Fiain under the left shoulder blade. I suf
ered much from shortness of breath, and
three to four hours sleep was the most I could
pet Id any one night. One week In Septem
ber I scarcely closed my eyes. I spent am
for medicines and doctors In Louisville, Shel

burg. It was all squandered for nothing. I
finally got Dr. Miles' Nervine and Heart Cure
at a drug store In Lawrenceburg, and In
three days have derived more benefit from
the use of Dr. Miles' remedies than I got from
all the doctors and their medicines. I think
everybody ought to know of the marvelous
