to permit the thirty or more sa mills in
the county to economically harvest their

The snow is protecting much of the large
acerage of fall grain and the mountains
are now covered to a greater depth than
at any time last year and oi:en our
heaviest snow fall occurs in Fehrurary,
thus we are a&sjred of plenty of water
for our mines and irrigation. Prospests
were never brighter in Union county.
U f Yf OPENER
Mr T. F, Ryan of Clackamas county in
announcing himself as a candidate for the
office of state treasurer says:
if elected to this office, I shall consider
myself a the custodian of the property
of the people, as the trustee of a sacred
trust, regarding anything that may accrue
to said property while in my charge, as a
part of same, to be accounted for Jo those
to wnom it belongs, the people of thi
state."
Just what ha means may not be clear
to many citizens. The salary of the state
treasurer of Oregon is fixed by our state
cinstitutijn at $800 per year, followed
by a statement that "he shall receive no
fees or perquisits whatever for the per
formance of any duties connected with
his office." The chief duty, as perscribed
by the laws of Oregon of the state trea
surer is to receive and have charge of all
money paid into the state treasury. .
Notwithstanding the unmistakable
meaning of the state constitution that, the
stat treasurer shall receive no fee or
emolument whatever for the perform
ance of any duties connected with his
office and one of the chiqf duties of his
office is to receive and safely keep the
state money until "paid out according t:
law, for many years there has been ugly
rumors that state treasurers were receiv
ing large sums of 'money annually from
bankers and business man-for the use of
state money. The-'etories are that the
emoluments of trie state treasurer exceed
the annuil salary many. fold; in fact that
it is the mast renunerative office in
the state. Tnese emoluments Mr. Ryan
proposes to turn over to the state if he
follows out the obvious meaning of his
declaration, one good effect of his an
nouncement is that it will open the eyes
of the people as to how fortunes have
been made from the use of state money
on an $900 salary.
Down in Arizona threats are being
made that the territory will rebel against
a bill joining it and New Mexico together
for state iaod purposes. That was an idie
hreat. If the government at Washington
de'.e mine o unite the two territories it
will do so, and the people down there will
eventually accept the arrangements as a
goxl thing. There is a little false pride
stirring them now, but after they had
been working a few years in joint state
hood harness they would" recognize the
arrangement as having rra iy advantages
for them.
A most peculiar casa is reported from
New York. It is thai of a woman just
dead who was afflicted with locomotor
ataxia. The disease hid the effect of
making her bones brittle, and for several
weeks she could n.-t move without break
ing a bone somewhere. Even her arms
became useless, as an attempt to lift one
ctused the bone to break from the weight
Nature certainly ha a strange way of
producing freak results. Whila. in the
main, everything runs along in the usual
ciannals, there is occasionally monstro
sity or distortion. What could have
operated to remove the toughness entirely
from th woman' bones the physxians
do not know, but it is apparent that some
process of nature becam misdirected
and began to operate in a manner never
ntendsd. i
