Compared with other counties of the State it ia nudouhteldly true that the expense roll of Columbia County ia Ji ght when the valuation of property and the population are taken as a basis for the comparison. But seven counties of the Siate .have smaller eiKntos, ami in three of these Wallowa, TilUmook and Gilliam, the amount is about the same. Tor the purpose of comparison we sub mit the following' figures, f jrnished by the Secretary of State, and which in cludes the total running expenses for the 'year, except for roads atd bridges.

The Oregonian, on Monday Inst, gave a list of all the couuf es in the elute, u gether w ith their rank in assessed valu ation and their rank in amount of ex penses, which we here reproduce: BAKE M ASSESSED RANK CS AXOl'ST -' VALDATIOK ok Ell E.VStS 1 Multnomah l Multnomah 2 Marion 2 Eaker 3 Umatilla 3 Lane 4 Clackamas 4 Umatilla 5 Lane ' 5 Marion Linn Douglas 7 Douglas 7 Clatsop 8 Yamhill g Union ft Washington 9 Linn 10 Wasco 10 Wasco 11 Jackson U Washington 12 Clataop 12 Clackamas 13 Benton 13 Yamhill i Polk " 14 Malhenr 15 Union 15 Jackson 16 Baker 18 Harnev 17 Cooa 17 Josephine 18 Kalaniath 18 Ox 39 Crook 19 Pulk 20 Tillamook 20 Grant 21 Columbia 21 Crook 22 Gilliam 22 Kalamsth 23 Morrow 23 Benton 24 HarnJr 24 Morrow 25 Lake 25 Columbia 2B Sherman 28 Tillamook 27 Jo.ephic,; 27 Wallowa 28 Malheur 23 Gilliam . 19 Grant 29 Sherman 30 Wallowa 30 Lincoln 81 Wheeler 81 Lake B2 Lincoln 33 Wheeler 83 Curry 33 Curry This table shows that Columbia County is 21st in rank in assessed valu ation and 25th in amount of expenses.

The seating of James H. Peabody as Governor of Colorado coi.slitutes the most disgraceful chapter in the hihtory of American politics, and was the result of a corrupt barjaio between the leaders it the Republican party of that State tho corporations. Upon the face of the returns his opponent was elected by 9,000 plurality, but the Legislature was Kepnblicnn and en investigation was or dered. This investigation was in the pands of the Republican majority, yet twenty Republicans were so well con vinced that Peabody was not elected that they absolutely refused to vofe for crating him under any circumstances until a denl was mad.e whereby he agreed in w-iting that he would at once resign in favor ef theDentenhut Governor, and eveu on the Coal vote to seat Peabody, ten Republican voted with tho Demo crats to defeat the outrage. It was a 7' ?;:?ory for ..corporations aud a df hat for the clearly.expressed will o( the ! people. As Governor Adams truly says ; I ' "The fwatWt anarchists and the most dangerous are often tho iiu-party, Jift-coiirciem-e heads of corporations, who nse the money and umuein-o coming from the fritm-hiswaantS jiruUt'tfUS that are the gilts of the peopla to control leg islation, to dictate the personnels of conns and nfliciala, to corrupt tho bal lot," This country Is in no danger from trades unions or laboring men. No country ever was In danger from its humbler cUixeua, a,nd every reform that has come to 'uplift tho oppressed id the v oild has h I its origin and main tup port from the laboring classes. The men ace to free government lu the United States today comes from organised wealth ami not orgnuiied labor. Land thieves, Standard oil monopolists,' beef trusts, and alt the other capitalistic law breakers constitute the menace against which the President is todav fighting the battle of the people. The trouble in Colorado originated in the attempt of the corporations th-.;re to nullify the will of the people as expressed ttl n fair election, for tho passage of n eight hour law. A corrupt Legislature refused to comply and the' great mining strike was then inaugurated. No doubt th men were guilty of excesses, but the persons primarily responsible were the coipo rations that corrupted the Legisla ture, and have again defeated the people's will hy ousting the rightful Governor of Colorado, and seating an usurper. Les ser outrages have provoked revolutions, and we have no doubt there will ba a revolution in Colorado, but it will be fought out at the polls, and possibly within the ranks of the Kepubjican par ty. A LESSO.X FOR FARXXRS. IheTrath That Was Pug Oat or the 1 20- Day Trial of Coirs at St Loals. From Hoard's Dairymac. Hoard's Dairyman strives to the best of its ability to teach dnlrv truth. It finds every w here a great lack of understanding of the tauth among farmers, even among thousands upon thousands of farmers who have all their lives kept cows- But the light is breaking in upon the minds of men who never believed they needed anv light. The St. Louis cow demon stration was a great tf.ht. Thetruthihat was dug out of that 120-day trial of court was of immense value to every man who has mind enough to appreciate the truth. Here are a few figures to tell a great story : . ... In (.Uss A. , .. Profits above Cost of cost of food food Bt Jcrsav 131 96 ."0 50 Poorest Jersey 30 30 26 72 Difference S 1 76 23 80 Best Holstein.., S8 57 48 02 Poorest Holaicia 34 W IS 08 Difference 1183 27 99 Beet Shorthorn 28 67 $32 56 Poorest Shorthorn 27 6J I 9 Difference $ 83 30 Gl Ben Brown Swiss 49 f 27 77 Poorest Brown Swiss.. 32 21 19 75 Difference $ 1 28 8 02 Let us stndv these figures a little. For years Hoard's Dairyman has been trying to gc-t farmers to see what a tre mendous difference it made with their profits to put their hard-earned feed in toa good oew ora poor cow. Look at these figures. The difference in cost of feed between the best Jersey and the poorest Jersey was $1.76, yet there was a differ ence in the value of the product against the poorest of $23.80. The difference in cost of feed between the best and poorest Holstein was only $1.89, yet the difference in value of the returns was $27.99. The difference in cost of feed between the best and poorest Shorthorn was on ly $0.88, ytt the difference in the value of the returns was amazing, being $30.61, because the poorest Shorthorn made a profit of only a $1.95. The difference between the best and poorest Brown Swiss in cost of feed was $1.23, and the difference in the value of the returns wa $8.02. How clearly this shows to the farmer that bis poor est cows cost him practical ly as mncli to keep as his best cows, yet the difference in profit between the two is immense. Does this not prove the great value it will be to the farmer to establish some system whereby he shall kuow just what his cows are doing? Does it not prove finally the tremendous value of our knowing a great deal more than we do about this business? Startling Mortality Statistics show startling mortality from appendicitis and peritonitis To prevent and cure these awful diseases, there is just one remedy, Dr. King's New Life Pills. M.
