Reports from various ranches
around the country are not very
sanguine relative to a large hay
crop this season. The long stretch
of dry weather, coupled with the
fact that the light snow in the
mountains during the winter
created a scarcity of water for
irrigating purposes, is responsible
for the shortage w hich is every
where apparent. The second crops
of alfalfa will be small in the ex
treme, and at the Baldwin Sheep
A Land Company's ranch even
the first crop is in a condition to
be regarded as a failure. Locally,
farmers are complaining of amall
crops, but the decrease in this
year's supply is not looked upon
as detrimental to the stock in
terests. Neither is it probable
that there will be a very material
increase in prices.
Los Angeles is much agog over
its recent acquisition of certain
water rights jn Inyo county, 240
miles north of the city, from which
the metropolis of southern Cali
fornia will shortly derive an ad
ditional water supply or as
soon a9 a conduit covering that
great distance can be constructed.
The prospective advent of pure
water and plenty of it (and the
supply'was beginning to run a
little short) into the municipal
ity is heralded as the greatest
event which has happened to that
portion of the state since it was
discovered that sunflowers would
bloom there at almost all seasons
of the year. All of which goes to
show that California with all of
ita angelic qualities still has a
long ways to go before coming
within range of the water bless
ings of Oregon.
The Oregonian divt-s not know
whether the Republican party of
Oregon will ever eease its factional
tights. It has hopes and it has
doubts. Hut hoies and doubts are
shared i-y other people. One of
the chief reasons for doubts is the
Oregonian itself. It gives undue
credit to factions in the selection
of a IVuiocralic mayor. The
factions doubtless had something
to do with it. but the principle for
which the Democratic candidate
stood and for which the Republic
an candidate was known not to
stand had very much more.
When to this was superadded the
support of the Republican candi
date by the Oregonian there was
no possible outcome but defeat.
Nothing is now so fatal to a candi
date as Oregonian support. All
that the voters need to know is
that the Oregonian js supporting
a certain candidate and straight
way he is an object ot suspicion.
The paper has ajways opposed
everything that was moral and
decent in the public life of the city.
It is believed that it cannot give
active support to any one who is
not in some degree tainted. This
in explanation of the fact that the
candidates for whom it made its
most strenuous fight last June and
also a year ago were the very
candidates who were defeated and
who by every rule of reason should
have been elected by a big ma
jority. But salt couldn't save
them when it was discovered that
the Oregonian . was seriously in
favor of their election. Before
that they stood a chance and were
given the benefit of the doubt, but
not after. There are many politi
cal hoodoos in the northwest, but
none that will stand in the class
of the Oregonian. In that respect
it stands alone and unapproach

Once upon a time a prominent
attorney was driving through the
country, and seeing a small boy
hoeing corn near the road, con
cluded to stop and chat with him.
"Hello, buddie," said the lawyer.
"Howdy do sir," responded the
urchin, without stopping work, or
even looking up. To begin the
conversation the attorney said in a
friendly tone: "Well, my boy,"
see you are hoeing out your corn."
"Oh, no, sir, I'm hoeing out the
weeds and leaving the corn."
"little boy, your corn is quite yel
low, isn't it?" "Yes, sir, we plant
ed yellow corn." ' You are not
going to make more than half a
crop are you?" "No, sir, we don't
want only a half crop; we're tend
ing it on the shares." By this time
the lawyer had lost pleasantness,
and said: "There isn't much
difference between you and a fool,
is there?" "Not much; just the
fence," replied the boy, and the
talented attorney soon vanished
