The MgAMtsTTMiir. Jacob George
propiietor of the St. Helens hotel, was,
iierhsps, the angriest msn in town
last Sunday morning. Our readers
will not be surprised at this when the
story Is finished. Mr. George, on last
Thanksgiving day, purchased three
nne, young turk. ys, Intending tn stall,
feed them lor Christmas. The feeding
and laltening was adecessfully acrom
pushed, the fowls being in splendid
trim indeed a glance at that turkey
pen almost msde one's mouth water.
Hut, alas, when on last Sunday morn
ing Mr. George went to feed his tur
keys they were eonsplruons by their
aiieenro. not even leaving a card to
explain matters, tbe only evidence ol
their unexpected departure being the
large roller door of the harn banging
by the lock. But, "alas, the birds I
where are therf" Verily, the meanest
thief is ho who; after tbe owner had
taken so much eins to preiaire a
Christmas feast, comes, under cover of
darkness, and spirits it away, -
Oasoox Potatos Lsid. On ex
htbition at the rooms of the Oregon
immigration board may be seen sev
eral samples of the earlv n se poUtoes,
These potatoes were raised in Morrow
county, and are probably the largest
of that variety over raised iu the slate,
and for Morrow rounty to produce
such mammoth xiaioe seems si most
incredulous; yet thev were rsised up
on the farm of Mr. B'wle, near Hepp-
ner, and Mr. B iwlvs says they were
growa without any irrigation. Thi

try, and snows that Uregou lands are
raps hie of producing almost anything
In the vegetable lion tinequaled by
any other state in the union. What
better advertisement does Oregon
want than the numerous products
which she has on exhibition through
out the atatef
8hovu SriAT Moaa Some of
the spptee coming to the Portland
msrket are selling for 25 cents box,
while others are selling as high as
11.60. There are very apparent rea
sons for this, the principal of hh h is
the worm and fungi to be found in the
cheaier class. The business of "spray
man" mentioned several months sgo
by ihe Pacific Farmer has not been
tsken np by anyone if the apples dis
played iu the Portland market ia any
criterion. There are hundreds of
thousands of dolUrs lost to the farmers
of the northwest thisyesr becsuselhey
did not feel diHied to use a few
hundred for purchasing spraying ma
terial, and using it after it was bought.
If Oregon wishes to rets in its repu
tation for "Big Red Applea" it must
do mora spraying for worms and fungi.
Bb Wise It stands every one in
hand to be very careful with them
selves and what they possess. The
country is flooded with destitute and
penniless peopteind accounts of petty
thievery hoMs a conspicuous placo in
the news journals of the country. Peo
ple sre resorting to desperate ends in
order to get something to eat and
wear, and those who are fortunate
enough to have eiinVient clothing to
keep them warm needs be very care
ful how they use it. Articles of very
litile importance or worth are bring;
stolen everywhere, and there are many
people who do nought but watch for
a chance to get away with tittle arti
cles of apparel. It behooves honorable
and industrious people to be ever on
the watch to guard themselves from
such depredations .
Too Much Comment. The big dail
ies these days are "boiling over" with
accounts of murders, suiuide, and the
like ; all ol them giving the most min
ute particulars. The newspspers of
today are giving too much space to
such matters. The comments always
give sura niesns of killing. If such
news were only noticed very briefly,
and no particulars given, it is possible
that such acta would become less pre
valent. Such news always leaves a
bal impression.

A peculiar suit is pending in. New

money in his pou.ih attenl d, and he
iilanked down his spondulics for a

on paying and kissing until his wallet
was emptied. Thinking over the
sweetness and satisfaction of this os
culatoty Mrformance, he conelutlcd
to marry Miss M. that he might get
his kisses free of charge. He proponed
and she consented, then he backed
down and declared he would not hang
his fortunes to a girl who would (lis
pense her kisses so freely, even if it
was for church purposes. And now
there is a suit for damages. Of this
sfTuir the Washington Post says; "At
first the lady wept, refusing to be
comforted, and after indulging her
grief for a fortnight, she went to see a
lawyer and her suit for bread) of
promi-e Is now on a court docket.
The cass of Mueller versus Corning
promises to have an attractive and il
luminating influence. One of the re
mits of the trial may be a discourage
ment of public and promiscuous kiss

ing for revenue only is not the ideal
style of osculation. Somehow, it hssu tl
tbo rlgut oavor." .
LA CAMAS THIEVES OAUOHT.
Stolen Goods round la a Milkman's
. House on Saavle's Island.
Early Tuesday morning P. B.
Fotneroy, A. Anderson, and Henry
Swearing were arrested on Sauvte's is
land, nu warrants charging; them with
the robbery of the store of Tidland
Craw, at La Camas last Saturday
night, and they were taken to Port
laud, and locked up In the county jail,
The warrants on which they were ap
prehended were Issued from Justice
Gicster's court, and were served by
Deputy Sheriffs Charles A. Wheeler,
and J. L. Wheeler, who returned at
once with the prisoners. Immediately
afier the robbery the La Camas con
stable, accompanied by several deputy
sheriffs, started iu pursuit of tbe . trio
now in custody, who were suspected
at once of the robbery. Cuming to
Portland they called upon Chief of
Police Miulo, who, upon being told of
the facts in the case, Informed the
Vancouver officers to call uion him
for any assistance he might be able to
render them, and how to proceed re
garding the issusnce of warrants, in
the event of the stolen giaids having
been carried into this county and
stale. The thieves were suspected of
being in hiding on Sauvle's isl md, and
were finally located, and arrests made
ss here stated.
When the robbery of their store was
diih'overed by Tidland k Craw, three
men who bad been camping above the
town for ten days prior to the robbery,
were suspected of the crime. Their
camp was at once visited, win n it wss
ascertained that they had taken their
leave, and a fishing boat was also miss
ing. The thieves carried awsy nearlv
everthing of value in the store, except
ing the counters, shelving, and srl s.
Their booty consisted of tes, coffee,
sugar, hams, baron, tobacco, shoes,
rubliers, cutlery, clothing, all in large
quantity, the aggregate value being
twtween MUU and SOW. This they
loaded into their boat sud were soon
at a ssfe distance.
Tuosday room i nr. on arriving noon
be scene at Sauvies island, after wad
ing through deep water and mud. Dep
uty C. A. Wheeler tosU d himself at
one door of Pomeroy's house and J.
L. Wheeler at the other. Pomcroy,
when swakoned by the sheriffs and
told to come out, instead, set his dogs
upon the offli-ers. They beat off the
cautnes, . and Anally considering
thst there waa no help for it, Pomeioy
opened the door and trsve himself no
romeroy is a mils rancher and Ande
son aud Swearing are fishermen. The
tatter two were arrested without soy
trouble. Tbe prisoners were tsken
to Portland aud Swearing and Ander
son were held simply as witnesses.
The offii-ers msde a second trip to
the island Tuesday afternoon, and up
on making; an examination of P imer
oy's house they discovered all the
stolen property. Everything to be
found in a general merchandise store
was found in quantity in Pomeroy's
house.
From all appearances the officers
are led to bliee that a regularly or
ganized band of thieves have been op
erating In that section fr a long time
past, and made f omemy'e house their
headquarters to conceal their booty.
PREFERRED PliUJM.
Some of tbe Appointments to be
Made by Governor Lord.
A great many ret dera of the daily
press of Oregon are said to be just now
directly interested in tbe appointments I
within the gift of Governor Lord after
he takes his seat as chief executive,
and doubtless the remainder will be
interested in knowing just bow many
such epKintmente lbereare and their
character, so the Statesman has been
digging them up and will here present
tbein.
The positions which the governor
fills directly and of his own choice are:
Private secretary.
Superintendent of the state peni
tentiary. Health officers at Yaqtiina bay, As
toria, 8iulaw and Coos bay.
Adjutant-General and other mem.
hers of the military board, as fellows:
Brigadier-general, judge advocate-general,
surgeon-geuersl and inspector
general. Members of the board of regents of
the state agricultural college at Cor
vsllis. Trustees of the Soldiers' Home at
Roeeburg.
Members of the board of regents of
the Eastern Oregon normal school at
Weston.
Eight members of the state board of
agriculture.
Members of the board of dental ex
aminers. -
Members of the board of pharmacy.
Regent! of the state normal school
at Monmouth,
Regents of the state university at
Eugeue.
Commissioners of the first Oregon
district sgricultural society.
Commissioners of the second Oregon
district agricultural si ciety.
The expert to measure work in the
B'ste printer's office.
Besides the foregoing the governor
a member of the resctive boards
in whose gift and control are aeveml
other important positions, and be haa
a no small voice in them as follows:
Superintendent 'of the asylum for
iusaue, the state reform school, the
school for the blind and the school for
the deaf mutes.
The clerk of the board of school lsnd
commissioners.
The management of the portage
railway.
The commission for the construction
of the Eastern Oregon insane asylum.
The capitul building commission.
Ths domestic animal commission.
It might be well to remark, for the
purpose of saving postage, and tlso
saving the new governor from a deluge
of mail matter, that a great many of
thess places will be filled only as va
cancies ocour by limitation of terms,
or through other causes, so the sp
pointments following upon the change
of administration will be very few. , -
Every dog kept on a farm should be
useful for some purpose. There are too
