Jean Hharman KdtHi Kagloy Karl Wiltcox Come now, is there really any considerable proportion of Ameri can citizens who think the Presi dency is so difficult that they would be unwilling to try it? Democrats say that they are pained to see a wabble in Republi can policies. Solicitude of thin kind is an infallible sign that Democratic traps have been set in vain. Admiral Dewey probably Uys his finger along his nose and blandly urina when his attention is called e tn that. nttpmrnt sent out from Chicago anent his candidacy. "In vain is the net laid in the sight of any bird." The New York Herald is credited with saying "it will be either Mc- Kinley or Dewey," meaning one or the other of these men will be elected next November. The Her aid is mistaken. " It will be either McKinley or Bryan, and it won't be Bryan. Secretary Root has recommended to congress that provision be made in the army appropriation bill for six additional brigadier generals in the regular army, in order . that President McKinley may reward deserving officers for meritorious service. One of the immediate effects of the Clarke investigation, which caused the senate committee on elections to unanimously report that Clark, of Montana, was not entitled to the seat in the senate, which he spent something like a quarter of a million dollars to get, waa the adoption by the House, with only fifteen adverse voterB, of a resolution proposing a constitu tional amendment for the election of U.

Subsequently they are notified by "money lenders" that no money can be advanced on their locations on the account of the investigations that ere being made by the Government agents regarding the system of acquiring title to some of these claims. Senator Chandler thinks Gov Roosevelt is tho man to bo nomi nated for vice-president on the Re publican ticket. Speaking about it he said: "I am for Rossevelt, and I do not recognizo his right to say that ho will not accept the vice presidential nomination, if the national convention should name hirn. Neither do I recognize tho right of President McKinley or Senator Ilanna to act for the party in deciding upon tho vice-presi dency in advance of the conven tion. The delegates will name tho vice-presidential nominee. Their judgment must deteimine, and any man.who is named will accept. Tho office has never been refused, and if Gov. Roosevelt is named by the convention, he will accept." Spain's attempt to retain three islands on the outskirts of the Philippine group, was a failure The claim was made on ths ground that these islands were outside of the geographical bounds named in the Paris treaty. This government has notified Spain that its claim would not be recognized for the simple reason that the demand of this government, when the Paris treaty was being negotiated, was for the entire territory of Spain in the Philippine and Sulu Archipelaroes, and that the demand was agreed to by the Spanish CornrmBsioners. The statement of boundaries was made merely to set forth in definite form a description of the territory ceded by Spain. The three islands are not important, but this govern ment is determined that no flag other than Old Glory should fly over any o( these islands. vicinity, says that hu will Ii rid hit wool this year for 20 cents per iMJunJ, and he advisee all wool- growers to do t'te same. I le lelicve the supply ami demand warrant that urice. and is satisfied that if growers hold out for it they will get it. As shearing has not begun there is no niakot price, but it is generally believed that much ltws than 20 cents will be offered. Mr. Vandcvort thinks that if tho present g.-wd weather oontinuoe shearing will beyin about May 10. Fleeces aro of very goodouality this spring, owing to the mild winter. Money In Potato. Farmers who raised jxjtatoos lust year made lots of money on the crop, if they sold them in time, al though tho price is low now. It might naturally bo supped that this would lead to tho planting of largo areas in potatoes this soawm, but farmers say such is not the case. Many of them figure that liccauBO potatoes wore a good crop and brought a good price, so many will go into tho IniHineee of raising potatoes this year that they will not bo worth anything, and so thoy plant fewer or nono at all. The fact that California, which in years of drought furniHlies n market for Oregon potatoes, has had plenteous rains this season, and is likely to have good crops ol everything, ha led some to plant a smaller acruago of potatoes than usual. This may be the correct way of growing pota toes, but some old hand) at the business plant the same acreage year after year, and say this plan will always win. Change In Time Beginning on last Monday dig tinct improvement has been made in the mail service on tho Southern Pacific, which will give Independence and Monmouth a double daily mail service from Portland. Train 6 of the Southern Pacific, leaving Portland at 5:05 m., will make connection with tho motor line at Dallas, on which mail service has just been estab lished. This will give these towns a chance to send mail to and re ceive mail from Portland both morning and evening. In connec tion with this service, arrangements have been made to carry mail on the motor from Monmouth to Airlie. This will give Airlieadaily mail service both ways in place of a tri-weekly service as heretofore.
