Tho American Beet Sugar Associa tion Is not a bit backward In demand ing that the sugar schedule of the tariff be revised upward, though It will probably bo BatlHfled If It hm't lowered. And there are others and a big bunch of them. That Oregon is moving right along and was not In the least affected by the financial flurry Is evidenced by the report of State Labor Commis sioner Holt, recently filed with the secretary of state. It shows that 272 new manufacturing plants were In stalled, with only 87 Htandlng Idie. The 272 now plants employ over three times as many men us those Idle, and the great majority of the Idle plants will start in operation Bbortly Uuard. MAKKH FIItM 8TATKMKNT. Uvo. Jones, Jr., Writes a HtroiiK let ter to Portland Journal. HOSKBURO, Or., Nov. 12. To the Editor of The Journal: As a duly elected member of what Is to be the Twonty-flfth assembly of the Oregon legislature, I beg leave to exprem through your columns my scntlmentp In regard to what the Oregonlnn dubn "A Hunting Question, " fin to whethei or not George E. Chamberlain shal' be our -next United Htates senator, and further to resent a number of flings made at the majority of that body who signed Statement No. 1 among whom I am preud to be clas sed as a member. I ask space In your columns not be cause T agree with you In all of yout political views, but because I consldei The Journal the only metropolltai dally newspaper In Oregon of cxtens Ive circulation that will give the plali people a square deal In this matter According to The Orcgonlan and 1 It accosHory, The Dalles OptlmtHt, thr man who was elected to the login lature on Stutement No. 1 is Indeed J n a bad hole. To hear them tell 1' he 1b down on his knecB with hi! hands tied and no room to rise, will a poisoned pickle between his tectl. and his eyes lifted to heaven In oik plaintive wall for help. Our dllentmi to voice them Is an appeal to nl' Christian nations to look with ben evolent mercy on such hopeless oh Jects of pity. Hut let us see. Has Harvey Scott, your esteemet contemporary and tho editor of tha' great and good morning paper, tin Oregonlan, tho only (?) paper oi tho Pacific coast that wsb planted li the soil of civic virtue and received Its ovonlng showers from tho foun tain of Justice, huge morning glory! I say, has Harvey Scott any Interest In this matter other than to give the people of Oregon a little light or matters as they stand, from the stand point of a disinterested party? I.et us hold him up to tho sky for a moment and dissect his motives. I Did Harvey Scott ever try to of elected a senator from Oregon? We bellovo ho did. And how? Hy buy ing It. If ho did not, why does he not sue Lincoln Hteffens for libel? Sterffens who Is one of the moBt noted and re liable writers of tho present day or topics high In tho public eye, snyp ho did. and that he offered $2i.(mo and the federal patronage of tho Ore gonlan to attain his object. Of course Mr. Scott denies It mere ly, but this Is only the flrnt Impulse of thecullty. Any small boy caught stealing melons or apples would say tho Ha mo thing. Why does he not sue? 1b It because he loves his ene mies and is willing that they should put him through much tribulation? In other woMs, does he mean to kill them with kindness, or 1b It because the necessary proceedings that would follow a suit for libel against Mr. Hteffens would only expose and trlng to light the very acts on the part of Mr. Hcott that Mr. Hteffens nccuseH him of? At any rnte they are raining n great howl against the people'F cholco for senator In an evident en deavor to pull off a few weak-kneed statement men and defeat the will of tho people. The Oregonlon's recent editorial on the six stages of how we attained the will of tho people Rounds chltdlnh. and If his quoted definition of patriot ism as the last report of a scoundrel wero true, It might show Mr. Scott to be a very patriotic man. And then our friend from The Dalles In his optlmlMtlc Optimist must pour oil on the troubled waters. The different methods ho nuggetM for a Statement No. 1 man to evade his pledge and betray his state and country would moke poor old Bene dict Arnold blush with shame, and the man who would get sick or be bribed to leavo (he couatry on a pro position of this kind htttf better make himself scarce forevr aftar. Senator Abraham and myself are the two members who signed the Btatement from Douglas county, and did we meditate anything of the kind we would expect from the people here nothing less than a coat of tnr and feathers and a limited time to g out of the country, and Judging from reports from other parts of the Mat i:ohody else would fare any better. Then why are these fantastic per iodicals urging the member. Iepid lican and Democrat, to down Cham berlaln, nd quoting the supreme court of North Dakota? What do we care about the supreme court of Nurth Dakota? Haven't we gut a supreme court lu Oregon Just as good a theirs? Besides, what man In Oregon, be he ever so populur, can honorably take the field? Can Fulton do It? Ac- coidlng to the Oregonlan he ha? a Ifi ltd that he will put up ail the f.hl ho can. He did that In Hi? primary and was defeated, and had he bvMii successful In the primary ani th(n lost out In the June election would he have bad the gall to have mt.de a fight In the legislature? His being a candidate now would amouni to the same thing, and for that rea son wo defy Senator Fulton to e'ick his hand lu. Then, who has this fanio.is Soil wood republican club got to riprlng? Of course there are lots of good and honorable men In Orepoa who ant worthy of this high office, out, tiko Judge Lowell, they have too high a tenet! of honor to attempt to rea en It o(roSB a field of broken nleles that would bring our state Into J'u giare and dishonor In the eyt-i of the vctld. We have the banner system In the country today In the way of re'oi.ii politics, and nearly the whole United 5'ntes are clanio-ing for whal we have, regardless of what thj Ore gcnian may say, and what is more, we are going to keep It with a little 'mprovetnent on It. Meanwhile let th coyotes howl ffte sheep niv in the fold. GlCOKCirc JONES. HOOHTING PAYS BIO. Medrorri leiilers Have Sold $1,500, OOO Worth of Property. Since the first of January the sales of orchard lands and farm prop erty made through tho agency of Medford people has reached the tidy sum or $1 ,ri0,000, Bays the Medford Mall. This does not Include sales of 2lty property, which would Increase the aggregate sum between J 100,000 and $200,000. In this estimate, which was made yesterday by a number of prominent real estate men, who had met casu ally and naturally got to "talking shop." and Includes only property In i radius of twelve miles of this city. It does not Include antes by other han parties living In Medford. There have been sales, of course, made h :eal estate men In other towns, bul ih oho are not Included. During tho year 1908, up to the (resent writing nearly every large re hard In this radius has changed lands, the two exceptions being the turrull and the Hopkins orchards, tn every case tho price has been a substantial advanco over that origin illy paid. One case of how values in reaso Is shown lu tho sales of the llasgow & Kngiish orchard near Cen rul I'olnt. II. C. (larnott and W. M. Holmes purchased It the llrst of the ear for $10,000. They sold It In a diort time to Glasgow & Kngiish for 1 15,000 and recently It has been sold again for $20,000. An Increase In aluo of 100 per cent In less than n year. This Is not tha only Instance of ; really Increased values in orchard 'nnds. There are lots more of them One place near Talent the Brock man place was sold originally for $4500, resold for $7r00, and the present owner has been offered $8, 000, but refused to mil. In 1 107 the agregato Bales were a little over $500,000, Just about one third what they havo been to date 'his yenr. How Is that for growth In volume of business? If all of us urn Id increase our business returns 300 per cent In a year, we would be lotng pretty well, thank you. The banner sale for hearing or hnrds was that of the Lewis, whl'-h brought $160,000. Dr. Picket's 401 orchard, not yet In bearing, comes next at $1 10,000. The ramous 11111 crest, Perkins' orchard, sold for $78, 000. The Hybee river ranch brought $37,000 cash. This farm Is what might be termed undeveloped. Tho Patterson much, near Talent, was purchased by Dr. Page a few months ago for $52. G00, and Dr. 'age has since been offered $80,- 000, but declined to sell. Mr. Hnndall and his associates, who purchased the Pellet t orchard, paying $00,000 therefor, havo added That our Atnrirau rornsli aliourd h plants which possetta (he most vuluault medicinal virtues Is abundantly attested by Mores of tho most eminent niedlrul writer and teacher, tiven tho untu tored Indians had discovered tho useful ness of ninny native plant befnro tht advftntof llm white race.

Treatment of Douglas and Ijtke Flocks Closes CanipaJn. PENDLETON, Or., Nov. 16. For two weeks 11 Inspectors under the direction of Dr. 8. W. McClure, of the Kederal Hureau of Animal ImluH - ii j, iino uvL-u uiuiig mw iiucab i of Oregon for trace of scabies or I other sheep diseases, but so far they have not been successful. This Bhows that the campaign of eradication which was Inaugurated less than two years ago was entirely satisfactory. Though not a single diseased sheep has been found so far, the work of inspection will be continued until every band In the state has been sub-1 Jected to an examination. It Is now believed, however, that no scabby sheep will be found, though early In the summer there were a few Isolated cases In Lake and Douglas counties. These were treated as soon as dis covered.. Though Oregon sheep were prob ably tho worst Infested with scabies of any state In the union two years ago, Dr. McClure stated at that time that he would clean up the sheep of the state within two years and this Inspection seems to Indicate that he has kept his promise. A TIMKIiY SUOOKHTION. Now Ib tho time to Bpray orchnrds, cspeoliilly apple treea that are affect ed with Dead Spot ( Anthracnose). The fall ralng have freed the spores that form on the outBide of the dead spot and they germinate during this month. Tho sulphur and lime solu tion. If properly applied, will prevent the spread or this pest. Also the fall is the bebt time to spray for San Jose scale, many of which are but thinly coated at IIiIh time of the year. Trees should be dry when spray Is applied and if thirty minutes is nl lowed for spray to dry on the trees before a rain it will remuin all win ter. Sprny now; do not wait for the rainy, blustery weather of March and April. GEO. W. IlIDDLE, County Fruit Inspector. How Is Your Digestion.
