Our entire navv at the close of last year consisted of 527 ships of all classes, manned by 33.000 officers and men and carrying a marine corps of 6,000. "Speak softly and can y a big stick and you will go far." said Poor Richard. Our "big stick" is the third largest in the world, ana we are spe-king in very soft tones indeed. One year ago the sc.ftness of those tones ended the v,a; between japan and Kussia. Secretary Koot has been carrying those soft tones to the. Re-J publics of South America. And Presi dent Roosevelt's soft tones recently sus pended the fighting in Cuba within forty eight hours. COOD BYE. STATE FARM The dairying interests of this state are developing rapidly. There is no question but what the prevailing low prices on beef cattle has had much to do with this. Ere long the turkeys will begin to roost high and they will be the only creatures who will not have abundant cause for be ing truly thankful this season. A few years ago there was much agi tation throughout the country as to what we should do with our ex-presidents. Since President Roosevelt has manifested a desire to represent New York state in the United States senate, it has been sug gested that New Jersey sendex-president Cleveland to the senate, thereby solving the much discussed subject. In view of the fact that that section of the country known as the Panhandle, which was formerly a portion of Union county, is becoming notorious for criminal depredations, the substantial taxpayers of this county have much to be grateful for in the fact that they will not be calledup on to pay taxes for the expense of the many trials. Next January is the time for the text books in the schools 1.0 be adopted. There are complaints of the phyology, histories and some others no m use and it is understood teachers "id superintendents generally will uri;e a few changes. Tne agents 0: tne oook concerns are now swarming througii the state in the effort ' to work in their books. The commission . consists of Harvey W. Scott, of the Ore gonian; William M. Ladd. of Portland;! Charles A. Johns, of Bauer City; William ! M. Colvig. of Ashland, and President j Campbell of the State University. The' commission was appointed under the Daly j law by Governor Geer. and after four j years was re-appointed without change I by Governor Chamberlam. j Notwithstanding the high efficiency of the state experimental farm at Union it seems that the farm is doomed to be abandoned and sold to private purchasers, says the East Oregonian. "For the past ten years or more, that farm has been the pride of Eastern Ore gon, on the black loam of Union, it has produced a marvelous variety of crops and while it was conducted on business principles by Professor Leckenby, it was a model of neatness, system productive ness and beauty. But since the appropriation to sustain it was held up by the referendum it has fallen away piecemeal. The livestock has been sold. The cropshaveheen curtaiUd. The experiments have been abandoned. A meeting of the board of regents will be held in Union in a few days to d.spose of it finally. It is new a standing joke in the Grande Ronde valley, as to whether Walter Perce of Hot Lake, or Tom Wright of Union, will get the biggest slice of it when :t is sold." While it is true that during the interim, that all of the state appropriate -.s Aeie held up. the usual degree of prcf.c;er.cy cf maintainance was not kepf up. bt sr.ee the necessary funds are avanao.e there should bene occasion to discontinue tr-.e station. It has accomplished much and will continue to be of great advar.tae to this portion of the state. YEAHS- -ij Trade Marcw tlV Designs rrt 1 CVrvRic&HTa Ac.
