Mr. Kami's; Explanation.
owe Krtitor: On account of what
aecm to be a atudied attempt to mlirep
recnt my position opon certain queitiont
"m:" me public ha right to be
luionneu, i wuli to lay: .
kr I . a
i-o man iu tne state of Oregon ho
more admiration for the courage, Integ
rity. ability and patriotism of President
Roosevelt than I have.
I am not an enemy to any claa of
peoplelaboring men, or otlierwie-on
the contrary, the laboring men, with
hardly an exception, In thi communltv.
are all my personal friend. I have
never opposed labor legllation, when I
believed It to be right, nor have 1 ever
failed to vole agalnat such legislation.
nen i oeueved It to be wrong. H that
made labor organisations regard me as
an enemy, j am willing to be so classed.
apologize lor no vote I cast In th.
legislature and any person or set of tier-
sons, feeling aggrieved at any official act
or mine, Is at perfect liberty to make
suctt criticism as they desire. While
...ri.iocr oi ine mate senate I did not
vole lor or against any measure that, un
cr me same circumstance and with the
same knowledge, I would not vote in the
same way again.
Wa 1 a -
i oas wen reported tliat I voted
against t' e Fellow Hervant Law. I did
not vote against the Fellow Servant Law:
on the contrary, I voted, together with
every other member of tbe State Senate,
: i ..... '
m i.ivor oi tuat law.
The particular measure which aroused
the antagonism of certain people, was
what was known at "Senate Bill No. 00"
introduced by Senator Malarkey. beiner
a bill limiting the hours of service of rail
road employes, and In my judgment, con
taining many obnoxious features. Tlie
vote upon that bill will be found on pan
2!3 of the Senate Journal of 1905, and
the ole upon that measure, opon its fi
nal passage, waa as follows: those voting
yea in lavor of the bill, were Senators
Browuell, Coshow, Howe, Malarkey.
Miller and Wright, a total of six in favor
of the bill: tboae voting nay and in oppo
sition to tne out were Senators Averv.
Booth, Bowerman, Carter, Coe Coke.
Croisan, Farrar, Haines, Hobson, Hod son,
llolman, Lay cock, Loughary, McLonald,
Fierce. Rand. Sicbel. Smith. Tu.iv
Wbealdon and Mr. President: there be
ing two member of the Senate absent,
to-wit, Senator May and Nottingham,
making a total of 22 voting nay, aix vot-
yua, ami two absent.
It has been reported that I have said
that if I could have my way, I would
wipe off from the statutes all laws favor-
ble to labor. This statement is abso-
utcly without foundation and was never
made by me at any time or place, any
body's statement to the contrary not
withstanding. So far as it ia claimed that I am a cor
poration lawper. I have only to aay that I
represent quite a number of clients, some
of whom are coporations, but most of
whom are individuals. I do not khow a
ingle lawyer in the state, having any
considerable amount of business, who
oes not number among his clients a
greater or less number of corporations,
and I do not know a lawyer in tbe slate
who is not perfectly willing to act as at
torney for corporations whenever their
business is offered to him, the same a he
would for any individual.
So far as the primary law is concerned
I am neither in favor of it or opsed to
it; I am however in favor of giving it a
fair trial, and if it is found to work satis
factorily to retain it upon tbe statutes
and ii not to repeal it.
JOHN' L. RAND,
How to Sec are Large Potatoes.
C. II. Andrews gives his experience in
the cultivation of potatoes as follows:
"I am convinced from my experiments
that it will pay to thin potatoes to one
stalk in a place and so give all the
strength and moisture of the land to
those that remain. It might be well to
cut out all eyes of the potatoes when
planted, except such as are desired to
grow, and so tave the trouble of thinning
out tbe field to some extent. There is no
profit in growing a large crop of potatoes
unless they are of merchantable size.
Tbe largest potatoes are always found
where the largest and strongest stalks
grow, and the small ones where they are
small and weak. It is a mistake, in my
judgment, to plant 'small seed or to cut
the large ones to one or two eyes to save
feed and to reduce the number of plants,
as the common practice is. It is much
better to plant whole potatoes of good
site, or, if large, to cut them at most only
in halves. Of course, it will cost more
to seed a field, but with good seed prop
erly thinned, much better result can be
obtained.
"If one desires to raise the largest
quantity possible from a few seed, greet
results can be obtained by taking off the
shoots and transplanting, but the pota
toes will not grow large. When the
early rose was first introduced I bought a
pound of seed, for which I paid 3, and
cut them in halves and planted them iu
a cold frame. A fast as the plants grew
large enough to transplant, I took them
off and set them in a field. I continued
to do this until too late to set out more.
I obtained from that pound of seed over
one and one-half bushels potatoes. The
first taken off produced the largest pota
toes. The later growth made weaker
plant, and from them were tuber pro
portionately smaller. It may not be
known to some people that each eye in a
potato is capable of producing a large
number of shoots ; as fast aa taken off
others will grow. Usually not more than
two or three to each eye will start when
limited, but Hint number is far too many
to be left to grow."
