OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Tnn backbone of the Philippine in
surrectiou is broken and B. H, Mitchell
is in tear.
The anti-expansion party of the
United States is well, wkat and where
a it, anyway T Seattle Times (pop.)
Two years ago the republicans carried
sixty-fire counties in Kansas. This
year they carried eighty and the state
goes republican on the county clerk
vote by 15,000 too 18,000.
Admjeal Dawn's salary amounts to
$37.20 a day ; that of President McKin
ley is equal to $132 a day ; cabinet offi
cers, the Tic president and speaker of
the bouse, get $23 a day; senators and
congressmen, $13.90, snd the chief jus
tice of the supreme court, $29 a day.
la the minds of some people Dewey
has undone a great deal of the glory he
achieved for himself at that May Day
party in Manila bay. However, the
bouse is not ours, nor any part of it.
We did not contribute a cent to the fund
that purchased it, and, so far as we are
concerned, he can do as he pleases with
it. which, in all liklihood, he will do
anyway.
Bob is pronounced Boa-er and means
fanner. Veldt is a farm. .TJitlander.
or outlander, is a foreigner. 8 tad is
city. Vaal is a valley. Burgher is
citizen. Oom is pronounced oms, and
means uncle. Baud is the edge. Trek
is journey, to travel. Veldbeer is
field marshal. Burgerwacht is the vol
unteers. Volksraad is the lower huse
of congress, and raadhula is the senate
or upper bouse. These are good words
to remember when you read of the
Transvaal troubles.
to be maintained in the Philippines,
thus dispelling Agulnaldo'a delusion
that the anti-lmperiallsta can assist him,
will be performing a sacred duty. Such
a resolution would save the lives of
many American soldiers and of thous
and) of deluded Filipinos, would avert
famine, suffering and desolation from
these Islands, and would render unnec
essary the expenditure of hundreds of
millions of dollars.
Was congress directs the president
to turn the government of the Philip
pine islands over to the islanders or to
some other authority, the president will
do so. He cannot do so before without
being recreant to bis oath of office. He
has no ehoice in the matter. He
sworn to uphold the laws and the sover
eignty of the United States wherever
the flag is planted, and until congress
hall with withdraw that flag he has
but one thing to do, and that is, support
and defend it with all the power of the
government.
Tai democrats are still rejoicing over
the result in Nebraska, but the Bt. Louis
Globe-Democrat thinks the republicans
have more reason to be jubilant over
the returns from that state than the
democrats. "The Nebraska demo-pop
victory," it says, "will bring two things
about which will be of immense benefit
to the republicans. It will delude the
democrats into nominating Bryan next
year, and it will incite them to make a
fight on expansion. Here are two con
siderations which will make the task of
the republicans in 1900 easy and pleas
ant. If the democrats knew their busi
ness they would put mourning rules
around the election figures from Neb
raska."
Thi cut of lumber along the coast in
1899 will exceed any former year, says
the Puget Sound Lumberman. This
statement is made without any data but
from a general survey of the situation
While in California there has been
but little increase in the capacity of the
mills, there baa been some, and the
mills bave all been busy. In Oregon a
goodly number of mills that have been
idle for years have been set to work,
while several large mills have been
erected. It should be said, however,
that these mills have not been com
pleted early enough in the season to add
much to the year's output. In Wash
ington it is within bounds to ssy the
output is one-third greater in 1899 than
it was in 1898. In round numbers it
can be conservatively stated that this
state will cut over one billion feet of
lumber and consume in shingles, poles,
piles, etc., enough to make the total
amount of timber .consumed over one
snd a half billion feet. In British Oe
lumbia the lumber trade has been re
stricted in export by need of ships.
Again, the big mill at Vancouver has
added but little to the sum total of the
year's output. There has been, how
ever, a great activity amongst the
smaller mills that cut for local and car
trade.
Congress, if it occupies the first day
of the session in passing a resolution
declaring in unmistakable terms that
tbe sovereignty of the United States is
" 'NOT THE PROPER METHOD.' "
"Under this caption the editor of the
Newt,conimonly called Aguinaldo Mitch
ell, just as well mention names," de
votes three columns of "space," for
"space" it was, on the first page of his
paper last week to criticising what he
terms "these Siamese twins," referring
to Mr. N. A. Perry, of Houlton, and the
editor of Ths Mist. This controversey
grows out of the effort made to consoli
date the school districts of Houlton and
St. Helens, in which the editor of Tbs
Mist objected to the public defamation
of the character of citizens of the com
munity by an unreliable, financially-disinterested
old microbe, who floats around
the country, flitting in here and there,
remaining until his questionable tactics
become a publio nuisance, and he is
forced to seek pastures new. Had the
early criticisms of that old sore never
been made it is not at all unlikely that
a friendly meeting of the people of both
districts would have been held e'er this
and some good, sound plan devised
whereby action along the proposed lines
could have been consummated. But the
first thing necessary in the mind of this
great "expansionist" was to heap abuse
upon someone and open up a chasm
which now will be difficult to bridge,
having previously exposed his selfish,
foolish spirit in the matter, reudering it
a difficult task to secure signers to the
petition by stating In his columns that
should the idea of consolidation be car
ried out "St. Helens would then have a
good school." This piece ol foolishness
was the greatest barrier to the success
of the undertaking, bringing forth strong
opposition, as a natural consequence
and causing more bard explanation by
those circulating the paper than any
other thing. No one had an idea of
having a school exclusively "for St. Hel
ens" except the old bag of corruption
who runs the postage stamp.
But this great local supporter of rebel
lion, Aguinaldo's cohort, cared not so
much for the consolidation of the two
districts as he did for an opportunity to
open up his batteries of abuse on some
one, he cared not whom, in order to
gratify his dominant ambition to be
everlastingly carping about something,
Being so corrupt within himself he at
tributes vile and dishonorable motives
to the methods of everybody in tbe com
munity. His rottenness, which extends
from core to surface, is so vile that the
least abrasion of his hide causes the of
fensive article to effuse in endless quan
tities. Having been a failure all his life
in every undertaking, his jealousy of
those, who by their industry and atten
tion to business have brought them suc
cess, so chafes him that his only means
of consolation is to attempt to tear down
the foundation upon which others have
builded. The old vulture's latest effort
will gain as little for him as have his
former similar tactics, and add another
epitaph to the tombstone of the greatest
monumental ass in the history of this
county. As the matter stands today a
chasm has been opened up by the mean
ness of the old fester of the News which
will render it, more difficult than ever
to accomplish anything along tbe lines
of advancement. Tbe breech is wide,
and in order to succeed the first thing
necessary is to throttle the old carbuncle
who permeates the whole atmosphere
with his offensive puss.
come distinguished by pardoning you.
Therefore, the Jury did you great ben
efit not to hang you. When you go
down to the penitentiary behave your
self, and some fool governor, who wishes
to distinguish himself for philanthropy,
benevolence and kindness may pardon
vou."
Tax only way by which capital can
increase is by saving. This is the way
the poor become affluent and tbe
wealthy wealthier. If you spend as
much as you get you will never be
richer than you are. It is not what a
man gets, but what he saves, that con
stitutes his wealth. Go learn the first
two rules of arithmetic; learn addition
and subtraction. Add to your present
capital any amount you please ; subtract
the sum which you add, and the last
amount will be the same as the first.
Everyone should, in a year of his life,
make some addition to his capital. You
say you get but little. Never mind;
spend less than little, and then next
year you will bave more, for you will
bave the profit which you save. There
Is no royal road to wealth more certain
than economy. The man who goes on
spending all be gets, and expects by
some lucky hit he shall be raised to
wealth, will most likely sink into pov
erty, for in case of adverse fortune he
has then no resource; whereas by econ
omy he may lay by a stock that may
serve as a provision in case of adversity.
You may say that times are bad. Be it
so, but were the case reversed it would
make no difference to you. Look at
home; you spend more than you get;
how, then, can you be otherwise than
pooi? How many respectable families
have fallen from high station, which
they worthily and honorably filled, be
cause neither toe Husband nor wite
knew tbe first two rules of arithmetic.
Had they known how to check their
household accounts, and how to com
pare their receipts with their expendi
tures, and to see which preponderated,
all their difficulties might bave been
avoided. A very small acquaintance
with the common rules of business
would be sufficient to show that if a
man spends more than he receives, be
will necessarily fall into poverty.
Tax sorehead editor of the little effus
ion down the street, being too contempt
ibly lasy to set the type tor the court
proceedings but week, took advantage
of our Industry by displaying the un
limited gall to come up and borrow our
hard-set typo. Yet he hadn't the com
mon deceucy and regard for professional
courtesy to state in his columns that it
was by the industry of Ths Mist force
that he could furnish his readers with
the proceedings of the court. But then
a cur you feed will always bite you.
Thi unusually heavy rains of tbe
past fortnight are accounted tor from
the fact that local sympathizers of Ag
uinaldo are weeping crocodile tears as a
result of the complete breaking down of
the insurrection in the Philippines.
Old hatless, costless, sockless Aguinaldo,
by his failure to hang on, has destroyed
the last vestige of hope of his American
allies. Passion has been torn to tatters
and his sympathisers are wallowing in
the "Slough of Despond."

The Dalles Chronicle.
Tits tactics of Goebel down in Ken
tucky to carry the state for Bryanisin
quite in keeping with the methods
that class of politicians. Success by
foul means, if by no other, seems to be
the slogan, just so they succeed. Tay
lor was as surely fairly elected governor
of Kentucky as it is certain that Brya
was fairly defeated for the presidency.
Lrrrn hope, indeed, remains for the
popocratic contingent nowadays. Every
thing they have advocated has proven
failure, and the hum of industry goes
merrily along, leaving them to the fate
of misguided theory and principle.

Ths fame of Pennoyer has evidently

Dairying is proving Itself to be an in
dustry ot pront in the Willamette valley,
as tbe natural conditions of things here
are so well adapted for the particular line
of work. With the introduction of dairies
to such a large extent, those controlling
and managing them are taking up the
improved methods of providing feed for
the dairy cows. Uut at the college the
agricultual students are taught, along
this line, tbe value of ensilage and silo,
In fact the entire winter feed forthedairy
cows out there isof this kind. The large
silos are filled with ensilage corn, it re
quiring many tons each year, though it
requires but a few acres of land to pro
duce it. The estimated cost of raising
and cutting the ensilage is about $1.00
per ton, and 15 acres of land will produce
xou tons, or enough leed tor the largest ol
our dairies in a single year. Corvallis

Under the heading, "To Estimate
Weight of Cattle." Brother Frank Hull.
of the Milton Eagle, gives his readers
the following information : "There are
several methods of finding the live
weight of cattle, but the following is
nrobamv the most correct! 'Meaanrn
the girth around the breast lust behind
the shoulder-blade and tbe length of the
beck from the tail to the fore part of
tns snooiaer-Diade. Multiply the pro
duct by eleven and the result will be
the number ol pounds, ll between
three and five feet, multiply by sixteen ;
if between five and seven feet, multiply
by 33; if between seven and nine feet,
multiply by thirty-seven ; if between
nine snd eleven feet, multiply bv
forty.'" Our experience has been quite
limited in the business of estimating
the weight ot cattle, and consequently
cannot endorse this as an absolutely
correct rule for that work, but we print
it and allow our readers to take it for
what it is worth, as was undoubtedly
the idea of Brother Hull. It might
work to a charm.
The house that Jack built isn't in it

Strange that one who is said to have
never made a mistake in tbe great un
dertakings of his career should have
made such an error in disposing of the

An amusing Incident happened a
short distance out in the country on
Tuesday ot last week, says ths Corvallis
Gazette.- An old farmer living out
there, on walking out into his yard and
gazing across the expanse of fields and
meadows beheld a spectacle in the dis
tance that came near astounding him.
Awav out there, shining like a ball of
fire fust over the horizon, could be seen
a star, so brilliant and luminous that
its sister constellations were hut objects
of pity. "Good at, Mary, come out
here and look at that star out yonder I"
he called to his wife. They both gazed,
and wondered, but tbe only conclusion
they could arrive at, was that the strange
spectacle was one of the meteors billed
to come, snd it had arrived early. The
old innocents retired, to arise in the
morning to find the star still there, and
there it will be for many years to come,
for it was naught but the big electric
arc light beaming from the tower of the
college administration building. Tues
day evening being the first time they
were set nurning.
