M. Richard Kuhne, of Tigardville,
Or., was in Portland recently, and
. showed much interest in the agitation
for establishing the beet-sugar industry
in the Northwest Mr. Kuhne is a
graduate of the National Agricultural
college, of Berlin, and for the last
twenty years has devoted his time to
the study and work of producing sugar
from beets. With an extended experi
ence in Germany, and being one of the
prime-movers in establishing the Grand
Island sugar factory, in Nebraska, he is
in position to furnish Valuable informa
tion on the subject Mr. Kuhne was
connected with that factory until about
three years ago, and during the period
was for some time agricultural expert
of the state. When interviewed on the
practicability of the industry in this
section, he was enthusiastic, and ex
pressed great confidence that the move
ment on foot would result in some sub
stantial benefits, as it was a similar
condition of depressed markets that in
duced the -Nebraska farmers to launch
into the business. Several tests and
experiments he has made in producing
the beets were said to be most satisfac
tory. The Northwest needs an organ
isation, he thinks, which will take hold
of the matter in systematic manner,
and concentrate the minds of the peo
ple to the vast wealth that must follow
intelligent cultivation of beets for the
manufacture of sugar. He kindly offers
his services gratis if expenses are de
frayed, to give instructions to any coir
. lection of farmers that will take an
interest in the matter. To a reporter,
Mr. Kuhne said:
"The belief prevails that the dry
weather we have for a period during the
summer and autumn months will be in
jurious to beets grown for sugar manu
, factum. I have proven this to be not
true by actual experiments. Beets re
quire a deep soil, and careful cultiva
tion. Given these, which the North
west is more capable of furnishing than
many other localities that are now im
mensely prosperous in the the same
business, beets require less rain than
other vegetables.' While I was connect
ed with the Grand Island factory, in
Nebraska, this quality of the beet was
fully shown. In 1890 the season was
so dry that the grains on ears of corn
would not form; oats, barley and wheat,
as well aa vegetables, were a failure.
Everything was dried up by the south
winds, except the beets. They stood
it finely, and yielded from six to ten
tons per acre, with from sixteen to
twenty per cent of saccharine matter.
This was the only income the farmers
had that year, and immediately the
state gave the farmers a bounty, in
recognition of the importance of the
crop.
"Beets thrive best in sandy soil, with
a uttie clay mixed, or in a clayey soil,
with a little sand. This combination
of soil has been proven to produce the
best and richest beets. Bottom lands.
along rivers grow greater quantities, bnt
the beets contain less saccharine mat
ter. By careful cultivation, bottom
lands can be made to produce beets
yielding from twelve to fifteen per cent
sacclianne, while uplands will yield
from sixteen to twenty per cent sacch
arine. The uplands have about aver
aged ten to twelve tons per acre, while
bottom lands go much over this.
"During the three years that I have
been in Oregon, I have each year raised
some sugar beets, part of which have
been submitted to analysis at the ex
perimental station in Corvallis, and a
few have been sent to other places for
tests. My experiments with beets on
the uplands has been a yield of twelve
tons an acre, with saccharine contents
from sixteen to eighteen per cent. This
test of saccharine waasmade by the ex
perimental station at Corvallis, and by
careful cultivation the per cent could
have been raised to twenty easilv. The
same beets, after many neavy rains, 130,000. Accompanying the bill was
occurring about the 8th of November. ! the report of Civil Engineer S. L. Lov-

' long before the time of the conven
ing of the joint assembly Friday people
began to enter the galleries of the
house. When the noon hour arrived
the galleries were crowded in the ex
pectation that voting for senator would
kegin. Their anticipations were not
realised, however. The proceedings
were but a repetition of previous ones.
When Chairman Brownell called the
convention to order he said that he was
in receipt of letters from Representa
tives Hudson, Mitchell and Vaughan
saying tbey are still too ill to attend.
The roll was then called, showing that
thirty -six members were present.
Representative Wagner was in his
seat for the first time .for several days.
Tho Bonaoa Room.
The Benson house met Friday morn
ing and Crawford's resolution to de-.
clare vacant the seats of the twenty-i
seven unqualified members was called
up. Somers argued the question from
its legal standpoint and claimed that
this act would not be to expel the mem
bers, but simply to open the way to fill
their seats.. : .: r-
Huntington took issue with Somers.
He did not think the house had a right
to declare the seats vacant It had a
right to notify the governor simply that
these men had failed to take the oath
of office and let him act accordingly.
There was some further discussion by
Nosier, Lake and Crawford, and it was
decided by a vote of 19 ayes, 7 noes to
defer the matter.
To Build Portage Hallway.
The feature of Thursday morning's
session of the senate was the adoption
of a substitue for the bill introduced by
Senator Michell relating to the con
struction and operation of a portage
railway from The Dalles to Celilo. The
substitute was reported by Senator Har
mon, chairman of the committee on
Commerce and navigation, which com
mittee had made a visit to the scene
and personally examined the ground
over which the proposed road is to be
built The substitute bill differs from
that proposed by Senator Michell in
that provision is made for the procure
ment of trackage facilities from the
Oregon Railroad & Navigation Com-!
pany and the sale of material now owned
by the state in the event such trackage
arrangement with the U. K. St N. Co.

Thirty-one members of the Mitchell
joint assembly mot at the capitol la
Salem Monday and discussed the sena
torial situation at length and in all its
phases. It was 1 secret conference, but
it is known that no formal aotion look
ing ' either to continued support of
Mitchell or his withdrawal was taken.
Driver, Sommcrs, Patterson of Marion,
Taylor, Reed, Gowan, Nosier, David,
Veness and others spoke; ' Some of
these advocated supporting Mitchell to
the end.'"..'.:
Taylor made several earnest talks. It
was to the effect that the interests of
the Republican party were higher than
those of anyone man; but he added
that the members of this oonterenoe
ought to have the right to name the
candiadte, if it is seen that Mitchell
cannot be elected.
Jtced wanted to fight it out on this
line if it took all summer. , He did not
believe in allowing the minority to dic
tate to the majority.
Senator Patterson, of Marion, thought
the thirty-one could afford to hold out
in their present attitude, and he invit
ed the opposition to "lay on, Macduff."
There was some talk Monday that it
was the purpose of the opposition to
come in and organise the bouse during
the afternoon. But it , was without
foundation. K. j
While the number of absentees from
the Mitchell joint assembly was six,
there was just one. voluntary with
drawal. That was Representative
Mitchell, of Marion. ..
Mr. Mitchell is no orator and did not
think it necessary to set off any fire
works in joint assembly, announcing
his purpose. He simply stayed out,
which is quite aa effective as any way
of getting at it
The Mitchell cause baa suffered se
verely through sickness. ;: Representa
tive Hudson, of Washington, who had
been in bed since last Wednesday, was
sent to the Salem hospital. His phy
sician says he has typhoid fever in a
mild form, and that he will probably
not be able to leave his room for several
weeks. Representative Wagner is ill
at his home in Portland, and it is said
that it will not be safe for him to ven
ture out for several days, if, indeed, he
can be here during the week. Repre
sentative vaughan is still quite sick,
but he may be able to answer roll-call
tomorrow, though this cannot be stated
with certainty.
The Davis house met at 11:45 Mon
day night. Sixteen members were
present. Adjournment was taken till
five minutes after 13. When that time
arrived, the house was again called to
order, and adjourned till 9:30 A. M.
Wednesday.

The absence of Representative Mitch

known that he has definitely declared
that he will not return. It was expect
ed that Mitchell would formally with
draw, but he appears to think a speech
unnecessary. Representative Venness.
of Polk, was probably not able to return
from his home, whither he went Fri
day, on account of the storm. Senator
Reed remained in the senate chamber
during the entire time the convention
was in session. It is not known that
his absence indicated an intention to
stay out hereafter. There were no
speeches. After the reading of the
journal had been dispensed with, the
convention, on motion of Senator Har
mon, adjourned.
A number of Republican members of
the opposition have received the follow

A case reported from Fresno county is
that of a well-known former resident of
Kingsburg, though now residing At
Selina. ; , ..
Mr. J. M. Purves is an old eeutle-
man of 70, who, during his lon resi
dence in ikingeDurg, was beloved alike
by young and old, and he is equally en
deared to tbe people of his new home.
It was about July 15, 1896, that a
reporter of the Republican met Mr.
Purves, And was astonished to see such
improvement in his appearance. He
looked ten years younger and much
stouter than when he moved away from,
Kingsburg for the benefit of bis health,
and he was congratulated on his im
proved appearance.
"I was all run down when I moved
away," Mr. Purves said; "something
like an old clock that is worn out, but
I have undergone such repairs as I
think will keep me in running order"
for many years to come if no accident1
occurs."
"What was the agent that wrought'
the change, Mr. Purves," the reporter
asked. "Was it Pink Pills? thev seem
to be doing all the healing in Fresno1
county."
"Pink Pills Are the very things that
nave Duut me up," Mr. Purves an
swered. "I. happened to read one of
the advertisements of their healing
qualities, and then read several more,
and somehow there was something in
the way the testimonials read that as
sured me they were true. One in the
San Francisco Examiner especially im
pressed me, and I sent at once and
bought some of the pills. I took them
as directed, and I do not think I need
tell you what tney have done for me.
I am quite recovered and set back in
the journey of life at least twenty years.
I have done more work since I have
taken them than for a long, long time

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are also a specific for
troubles peculiar to females, such as
suppressions, irregularities, and all
forms of weakness. They build up the
blood and restore the glow of health to
pale and sallow cheeks. In men they
effect a radical cure in all cases arising
from mental worry, overwork or ex
