Tuesday's Oregonitiii refers to the
only accepted county machine made
candidate and as nsnal cannot retrain
from its demoralizing coutse, it gavs :
"Tho Olackamiis Oonnty assembly
nominated a very fjood man for Btate
gonator iu the prosou of L. D. Walkor,
of (lanhy. Ho is a business man ot
standing, a studout of alfairs, and a
neighbor who has tho regard and re
snoot of all who know him. He is
going to rnu against the unspeakable
Browuell. and the people of Clackamas
county, who know both men., are to
have a chanoe to decide between them.
By the rcsnlt we slnll be a bio to soe
just what sort of a state seuator the
Republicans ofClackanms comity really
want."
The Oregouiau delights in viteper
oas and filthy epithets that seem to
be at all times at its command, and
is invariably ou the wrong side of tho
lence in referencs to what the com
mon people of tho country doairo, and
it is even so iu tho above case.
Everybody iu Olackamas Comity
knowsMr. Browuell, and thut he has
done more for tho farmers and the
people, than any publio servant that
has ever beon sent to represent them
at Salem, eveu to the introduction of
the vorv moasnres that have made pos
sible tlie valuable representative laws
in this state and which the people do
not propose to throw away on ac
count of the mere quaddliug and prat
le of the Oregonian.
Without further reference to the as
sembly, machine-made candidates,
who were informod of thoir seloctiou
in;thiscityrSaturday, a vory largo ma
jority of whom absolutely refuse to
acoept such a olose corporation nomin
ation, preferring to go before the peo
ple and await command, without fur
ther lefereuce as a body, we do wish
to state that it is deplorable that even
so good a man as Mr. Walker of Can
by, should pormit his name to be class
ed with tho fow who desire to take
the power out of the people's hands
and return it to the few unscrupul
ous politicians.
The roforouoe through the columns
of the Oregonian to Mr. Brownul iu
guoh degrading terms only tends to
strengthen him iu the work of a fair,
square light for the farmers and the
people of Clackamas County. It is a
well known fact that he has the affec
tions ot a great many poople because
of his many aots of kindness to the
poor and unfortunate and iu fact
with every one with whom lie comes
in contaot. He lias always assisted
financially and otherwise in every
movement for the betterment of sooi-
Wo do not suppose that any othor
one man iu Clackamas County has
holpod build more churches than Geo.
O. lirownoll, and his .friendship ex
tends to the vory limits of tho county,
even his political enemies speak well
of him.
The Oregouiau's treatiuout of Mr.
Browuell lias always beon low and
conteniptable and shows that the
writer is course and unprincipled, it
will probably mean a thousand votos
to Mr .Browuell, should he decide to
becomo a candidate for state Senator.
The Courier has stood for all that
is just and right for the poople and in
every nook and corner of tho couuty
come words of encouragement and.
praise and a further backing by nearly
doubling its circulation in the coun
ty, which has oonie unsolicited," in a
majority of cases, and iu this instance
it positively atllruis that it believes
Mr.BrownoU a true friend of the com
mon people aud a man who will work
for thoir interests and that it will sup
port him in this our tight against
corporation greed and uorrupt boss
rule, to the end that we may attain
our much prized right to say who Wo
shall have and what wo shall have
notwithstanding tho attempted dic
tum of tho Oregonian.
Americau pesiinists, who point with
pride to everything that is done on
the othor side of the big pond, were
Bomewhat Burprisod over tho announce
mout of the failure of a bank in Uor
many with liabilities ot nearly thir
teen million dollars, most of the board
of directors losing their entire fortune.
In regular American stvlo the manager
of the institution has beeu arested and
startling disclosures will probably lol
low.
An epidemic ot suicides is ou in
Portland. Probably tho pace iu the
Rose City is getting too swift. They
better bo' content with the ills they
have than tako chaueos on the undis

GlrTord Plnchott declares that the
salvation of the nation lies in not

A big boost iu the settlement of the

Fifth Annual Dry Farming Congress,
which will be held in Spokauo, Oot-
ober li. 4, 5, aud 6, of this year. Plans
for the gathtring aro already well un

Butcher Weylor, captain general of
Spain is again iu the limelight. He
has issued a pronnnciaiuento in which
he announces that theSpaauisb rebels
will bo given no quarter, that there
will be no ubo for hospitals aud that
tho cemeteries will have to be enlarg
ed. This is the same kind of.au order

He has challenged liaruey Oldilold,

lotteries fought him, for the money
there is iu it. Look out for another
raoo conflict.
The most ardent conservationists
ought to bo made happy over the re
cout order of the government with
drawing HO), 000, 000 acres of laud from
settlement. Thero is a apparently
uo need for tho aroat ooiisorvatiou con
vention at St. Paul, for there is uoth
inn left to conserve. Nearly 55,000,000
acres of land in the Pacific Northwest
aro included iu this sweeping order.
Withdrawals in Oregon iueludo the
following: Coal land 11)2, 6la acres;
ri4.84U, acres; water power 170,131
acres ; national monuments 480 acres;

It is tho purpose of postolUce depart
ment to establish postal saving banks
throughout the country on the lirst
of October. The system will first be
triod in second and third class offices,
instead of the first class as originally
intended. Postmasters throughout
the country aro taking a lively inter
est in the matter, more than three
hundred of them having already regis
tered that their ollices be designated
to aocept postal savings. More fhau
six hundred national banks desire to
bo used as depositors of postal funds.
The Mazaiuas expedition fostered by
the Port land Oregonian and New
York Herald for the purpose of as
cending Mt. MoKiuley. has beeu com
pelled to return without having ac
complished the purpose of their mis
sion. After suffering untold hard
ships the foot of the mountain was
reached and hero they discovered
that they were confronted by almost
perpendicular wall of snow, the as
cent of which was impossible. They
rjdieulo the idea of Dr. Cook ever
having made the ascent from that
point. They propose to try it again
next season from the other side of the
mountain.

Coose Bay is going to improve its
harbor and the channel from Hie ocean
into the bay. Publio docks audware
houses are to be built as well, or
this purpose it is the inteution to ex
pend 300,000. It is proposed to issue
20-year bonds bearing 5 per cent inter
est. Coos Bay people approve this
project generally, but the commission
of the port has decided to leave the
matter to a vote of at Hie Fall eloo
tiou. The plan contemplates a great
itupprovemeut.of the Coos Bay har
bor. Both the Republican and Demo
cratic parties have been wiped off
the boards in Pennsylvania, and a
new organization called the Keystone
party, has been formed to fill their
places. The platform declares that
both the old parties are domnated by
the same influences, and that the
safety of the common wealth de
pends on their election. The election
returns will probably show that the
old parties will continue in the saddle
by a large majority.
Secretray Ballinger of the Depart

In the years 1908 and 1909, about

have returned to the states, leaving
fifteen million dollars' behind them.

Our Prisons Breeders of Tuberculosis
That there are 12,000 tuborculdus pris
oner in the Btate, federal and local
prisons and jails of tho United States,
with less than U5 special institutions
and hardly 810 beds for their treat
ment, are some of the chrgos made by
the National Association tor the Study
aud Prevention of Tubirculosis in the
following bulletin issued to day.
From several investigations that
have been made, it is estimated that
on an average about fifteen percent of
the prison population of the country
is afllcted with tuberculosis. Ou this
basis, out of the 80,000 prisoners in
the penal instuntions of continental
United StateB ut any given time, not
less than 12,000 are infected with this
disease. If the Philippine Islands oud
othor insular possessions were taken
into consideration, the number would
be muoh larger. Some of the prisons
of Pennsylvania, Kansas and Ohio
Bhow bucIi shocking eouditious with
reference to tuberculosis that many
wardens admit that these places of de
tention are deathtraps. Similur con
ditions could be found in almost every
state, and iu the majority of cases the
only sure remedy is the destruction of
the old buildiugs uud the erection
of new ones.
Only twenty-one prisons in fit teen
states' and territories have provided
special places for the treatment of
their tuberculosis prisouers. .Thesa
institutions can accommodate, how
ever, only 800 patients. Iu three
fourths of the major Dritons.and prac
tically all the jails of the couutry the
tunberculus prisoner is allowed to
freely infect his fellow prisoners, very
few restrictions being placed upon bis
habits. When the congregate mode of
prison life is considered, i ho danger
of infection beeouioB greater than in
the general population. New York
and Massachusetts where any system
atic attempt has beeu made to trans
fer all tuberculosis prisoners to one
central institution. The largest pris
on tuberculosis hospital is in Manila,
whore accommodation for 200 prison
ers are provided. The next largest is
Clinton Prison Hospital, New York,
which prvovides for 150
The fact that 100.000 prisoners are
discharged from the jails and prisons
of the country annually, and that ten
to Hfteou per cent of them have tuber
culosis, makes tho problem of provid
ing Bueeiul places tor thoir treatment
while they are confined a serious one.
So importaut is tho problem that the
prison association of Now York in co
operation with the State Charities Aid
Association is preparing to inaugurate
a special campaign for the prevention
of tuberculosis in the penal institu
tions of the state, aud will seek to iu
list the co-operratiou of all prison
physicians aud anti-tuberculosis soci
eties iu this work.

All kinds of vexation and a whole lot
of rebelling of fruit in the canning
season can be prevented If the house
wife will see that she bus u supply of
new rubbers for her cuns. Afler be
ing used a couple of times rubbers be
come hard mid Inelastic and greatly
increase the chance of leaking. The
best rubbers cost about two-thirds of
a cent apiece, while one can of fruit
lost Is worth from 20 to 25 cents,
which makes the reason for the above
precaution quite plain.
That lad was certainly nn excep

took a deal of pride. If we remember
correctly said boy was not compelled

The bee moth is a pest that Is like
ly to lay Its eggs In comb honey that
Is stored and not properly protected,
and also does so In hives In willed the
swarm bus made headquarters for too
long a time. The super of a hive Into
which we looked the other evening
was literally alive with lusty larvae
and the newly batched moths. When
this state of uffalrs exists the swarm
Is usually done for, aud the moths and
larvae should be given a sulphur

by placing a few drops of the chemical

Into the entrance to the hive.
With the north pole tugged by Peary
and the battle against the air seeming
ly won, as shown In the remarkable
nerforniances of aviators In America
and Europe during the past few weeks,
there would appear to be little else to
achieve along the line of accompllsb
Incr the seemingly Impossible and won
derful. Yet a large place in public es
teem waits for the man who may ne
able to en teh and conserve the swel
tering heat of slimmer for use during
the winter season, as we already do
winter's cold when we store cakes of
Ice. Experiments have been conducted
along this line, but so far they have
been without result.
With meat products nt n high notch
as a result of u scarcity of food ani
mals and with nn ever Increasing out
put of gold tendlug to still further In
flate prices, the time would seem to be
appropriate for a whole lot of fellows
to diversify their agricultural opera
tions by making a stnrt with a flock
of sheep. With Intelligent care they
are easy to raise, while a major part
of their keep is furnished by the
weeds the bane aud waste byprod
uct of most every farm. Resides very
satisfactory prices which one may ex
pect for mutton, the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill, which shoved wool duties
to a still higher level, will hardly be
changed within a decade, hence good
prices may be counted on for the fleece
of the flock. To n man up a tree the
sheep business looks mighty good for
several years to come.
The government Crop Reporter for
June contains some very Interesting
statistics on the fruit situation by
states mid for the country as a whole.
Tho condition of npples, which outrank
In value any other single fruit crop, is
placed at 53 per cent as against 01.4
for June, 1909, and C9.8 per cent,
which Is the ten year average yield.
Washington leads with a percentage
of 05, Oregon shows 93 per cent, while
of other important apple producing
states Idaho promises 92 per cent of a
normal crop. New York 75, Colorado
63. Michigan 57. Arkansas 50 nnd Mis
souri 32 per cent. Iowa was hardest
hit of all with the April freezes and
shows but 7 per cent of a normal pros
pect. The estimate on pears for the
whole country is placed at 63.2 per
feut of a normal crop as compared
with 61.8 a year ago. while the pros
pect for the peach crop is placed at 62
per cent ss against 54.1 per cent a
year ago.
