THE FARMER'S
TU0NT0 BUT.
Comes in for a Long In
ning from Now On.
"HAYSEED" DAYS ARE PASSED
Land will be Gold and the Farm
er "It" from Now On.
There lias certainly a better day
dawued for the man who gets li is liv
ing from the ground, and it will b a
long time before the bqu sets oil this
day or the Courier editor 1b no
prophet.
Up until the laat few years farming
hasn't been an ioe cream social. The
millions of acres of free land stretched
out in every duection a case of more
land than people.
Bat the great emigration or the past
years, the never-ending line of tlion
sands and thousands who pour into
this coontry every day of every week,
lias made a market lor almost every
thins that grows and today the faim
er is about the best hooked up of any
of the class who ninst work And
what a reversal of conditions there
has been in the paBt few vears.
Twenty years ago the man who had
a steady job with a fair salary was
pretty well fixed, and the farmer who
liaa a mortgage on his place was a
slave.
The man with a job conld boy any
thing the farmer prodoced at his own
price, because there was little de
mand for the products. Uia dollar
was a long one, and its porohnsing
power great.
The farmer bad mighty little to do
with fixing the price of bis stuff. He
offered it in the market and took
what was paid him beosuse he was
forced to.
And today the live farmer is falling
over horseshoes, while the salary man
is singing blue musio and thinking of
buying a farm.
Increasing population, better roads,
rnral mail delivery, telephones,
creameries, improved machinery and
education in farming have done their
work and the "hayseed" is bnt a
memory of the old, hard days.
In forty years onr popnlation has
doubled. In another fortv ye.trs it
will doable sgain.
Auv miiti who ha" sense enough to
pour sand in a rat hole must know
that tr mi now on laud is gold and
that Uod's old e-i'th hus TJuited
Stales honiie way down the list as a
safe investment.
I do not believe there is a spot in
- this oouutrv today where a man could
go wrong if he bought land at Its pro
dnoing price not the speculators'
price, bnt its actual market valae.
One drawback to farm prices in this
connty is that owners give bo little
oare or heed . to buildings surround
ings and comforts the little things
that mane lire inviting and pot a
ready sale on the farm. There are too
many tumtile down barns iiaiutless
houses and lawns that the hens and
weeds fight over.
When a city resident wants to sell
to sell property he "fixes up " He
knows the boyer .will pay for the
paint and the little expenses and he
knows these little details make his
property look good. This is some
thing the farmer will learn in time
bnt something he is learning very
slowly.
There's a great future for the Ore
gon farmer. This state has a soil that
will produce almost anything that
can be grown anywhere and prodnce
it higger ana id great quantities
The farmer has but to use his head
to have his farm face Easy street.
Brains count much more than brute
strengb but it is very hard to make
the average mau believe that his head
is better than his hands.
JUDGE BY THE GOODS.
It Doesn't Matter What Factory
Turned Them Out.
Last week at fellow dropp-d in to
state that Brown was a pretty good
preacher Due that lie aid not live Dp
to his texts that his advice was good
bat that it was for the other fellow to
observe.
What does anybody rare?
If I lived op to all I siucerely be
lieve in I wouldn't be editing a news
paper in Oregon City. I won Id be
playing a harp in the orchestra of the
good who died young.
It isn't a question of the writer's
saintliness. If you can dig anything
ont of this sheet that yon think is
worthy of following take it down the
line and don't lame your neck look
ing back to see if the author of the
advice is in the procession and is
keepiag step to the advion music
Good is good and bad bad ngardlees
of the source.
If a nerve-wrecked booze-goner were
to picture to me the bell in which he
lived and the awful torture of the
nights which have no end it would
get under my skin just as deep as the
same picture painted from the pal pit
by a minister who oouldn't tell the
difference between barrel-house whis
key and Jookey Olnb.
The edjtor of this paper has ever
condemned the use of those heart
killing nerve-destroying oontemptible
looking oigarettes yet no doubt com
petent witnesses ooold be found who
would testify that the pilot of this
sheet had been caught w ith the goods
on him. 1b the advice to cut out the
"paper things" any less of value?
If this pain r occasionally gets off
somrthinv that would do yon good,
sw allow it ana don t wait to dig up
my fiumly history to see if 1 took a
dt se first The truth is th' goods and
a liar hasn't got to apilogize for
handling it
Vou toald talk to your hoy like a
Dutch uncle against chewing tobacco
and go to the door between arguments
to spit. The advice is just as good as
if yon never tasted the stuff. Bat in
this instance it might lose a little of
its force.

They tell us to "swat the fly" or
he'll swat os; that every speck of his
body is covered with microbes and bis

will inject into us if he ges to os

breeder, and we mast swat him.
Bnt when your dad was a boy there
wasn't a soreen on window or door;
the flies had a right of might to crawl
all over the baby and danoe on the
pie crnst. And yet we were more
healthy then than now.
They tell as that absolute oleaoli
ness and fall ventilation are necessary
to ns if wt would have health and a
pair of lungs to last oat. and the
doctors advocate out of door bed
rooms as necessary for health.
A bunch of ten to twenty Dagos
will eat and sleep in one box oar,
without ventilation, never know that
water has any other ose than for
drinking, and yet they will show op a
bunch ot dirty health that an athlete
wonld envy.
They tell as that drinking water
that has not been filtered, other than
a mountain stream, is poison to the
system, that fever has rented rooms

For months the writer has drank
Btagnant water from the water holes
of Texas, water rained nine months
before and which the range cattle
used for a natatorium, and lie has in
times of necessity quarreled with the
wigglers over the cupful of wetness
in a pot rock and drank it. And he
never had suoh health.
There are microbes in everything,
danger in everything now-a-days, and
it is one of the modern wonders how
we ever manage to escape them and
live the week out.
There's a lot of darned nonsense in
these modern health rules and regula
tions.
If a man will nse the legs and arms
(iod gave him to wigele with; use his
lungs to hi em lie air instead of smoke
with, rise his stomach to eat fcod
with instead of making it an ice
ream storage, lie won't have to
worry over nv bates or water wig
glers, for ha will have health to
throw off any variety of microbe or
germ.
I wouldn't advise hitohing onto
sewer ditch for water for domustio
purposes, for it might get vou if you
stayed with it, bnt if yon will drive
in health you won't have to worry
whether a fly took a walk aoross a
slice of bread, before yon dare eat it
Gernis and microbes are no friends
of health, and it's easier to fight for
that than to tight the doctors' terrors.

Portland may soon become a tobacco
center, if the predictions of Nathan
Thayer, an experienced southern
grower, are materialized. Thaver has
been looking over the territory around
Kennewick, which is tributary to
Portland, and believes it to be ideal
for tobacco growing. So convinced
is he of the adaptability ot this coun
try for tobacco that lie lias secured a
large tract near Eeunewick and has
left for Kentucky to ' secure a large
number ot negroes as laborers.

FINDS LOST ART.
Theodore Granquist Tempers
and Hardens Copper.
Theodore Granquist, a Finlander
who lives in West Oregon Oitv.
brought to the Courier oflice a knife
forged from solid copper, which he
had hardened and tempered and
whioh served all the purposes whioh
a steel ciaae serves. The blade was
put to tests of wood cutting and the
edge held as well as a Bteel blade.
The tempering and hardening of
copper is said to be a lost art, and
that the ancients powssed the secret.
Mr. Qranqnist has worked on the
process for three years and lie claims
he has discovered the long-hidden
seoret. He a bo showed a small bar
or the copper that to nil sppearances
ai'fl tests was ueailv as hard as steel.
He has taken the matter up with
the patent office and hopes to realize
something from his disoovery.
Mr. Granquist is a native of Oulnn
Laani, a small settement in Finland,
a would-be Russian annex, and came
to this country a few years ago, and
oan speak bnt little English. Copper
is one ot the prominent minerals of
the country and the people there are
familiar with it and its many uses.
If his seoret process proves success
ful, great wealth is in store for him,
and not only will the name of Qran
qnist live in the annals of history,
but the faot of the development of
this wonder here in Oregon City, will
add much to Oregon's famous old
city.
COMING EASY NOW.
Nothing Succeeds Like Success
in Railroad Work.
Splendid weather, easy stock sales
and general enthnBiasm are lengthen
ing the Clackamas Southern railroad
every day, and as the Yankee says it
is "all done but the fiinishiug."
The orisis his long since passed on
this undertaking and the finish of the
road is bat a matter of work audtime
When the proposition was first started
when it looked like a big chance,
then it was a nibtter of mighty hard
work to find enough sandv men to take
a chance, but now with the work
half done, there is plenty of money
left that wants to get in, for the
Clackamas railroad is going to be a
good investment.
And outside of the dividends it will
pay in cash is the investment it will
be to Oregon City a proposition that
oar people do not half appreciate.
ThiB road will opn np a new coun
try and bring every foot of its timber
and every pound of its products to
Oregon City.
It will make new larms along the
route ; it will improve dead laud; it
will bring in people and settle the
country, and it will direotly add a lot
ot business and people to Oregon City
WORTH TRYING.
Lady Resident Propose-Novel
Idea to Beautify Bluffs.
One of Oregon City's ladies was a
caller at the Courier office the other
day with a novel proposition which
she t-inks would do much to beantify
and add to the picturesqueness of the
oity, and at very small expense.
The proposition was to oat the
brush and rubbish from the faoe of
the bluffs and at the several stair
ways, and at the bottom set out na
tive wood vines. Site said that in
two or three Tears these vines would
climb the bluff face, completely cover
them and also cover and conceal every
timber of the different stairways and
make the whole a place of beauty.
The suggestion is one that would
cost but little to try, and there is
little doubt bat that the experiment
woo Id prove a pleasing saocess.
There are many vines that grow
prolific in this state, and they wonld
soon cover these rock bluffs.
Bat it is op to the ladies to start
it the men never will. If once the
beauty of this idea conld be demon
strated, it conld no doubt be carried
out and add much to tho city's beauty.
Thrnston oounty, and Sheriff Long
mire ox r-ieroe connty, Wash , are
working night and day to oonneot the
two awful murders to the same hand.
The murder of Mr. and Mrs. Coble
was in almost every detail a dupli
cate of the horrible hatchery in this
county. The yonng couple were
asleep in bed ; the mnrderer entered
through a window, each was brained
with an ax, the heads beina cat open
and skulls crushed, and the woman
had been assaulted. The hour of the
crime was the same as that of the
Hill family killing, and every circum
stance points to the same hand as the
mnrderer.
Swan Peterson, a tramp Swede, is
in (lie jail at Olympla with a mouu
tain of oironuiBtantial evidence piled
up against him. Among his affects
were blood-stained garments, an on
dershirt stained with blood, a towel
from which blood stains had been
washed and several other details that
look very suspicious. The man had
been working on a section, he left the
job without drawing his pay, there
were bloodstains in the room he occu
pied, and garments that had been
washed in his room. He was taken to
the Ooble home and viewed the
mutilated bodies, but remained stolid
and uninterested. He simply sttok
to the story that he knows nothing of
the murder. If he is innocent he lias
much to explain to clear up the many
incriminating circumstanoes against
mm.
Dr. and O. A. Oathery of Portland,
who have long made a study of blood
stains, and who eUiin to have a secret
chemical Vihioh will bring out blood
stains when Invisible to the eye and
alter having been thoroughly washed
and eradicated, have done mnoh to
ttai e the crime to Peterson
At the Coble home, footprints left
by a man walking on tiptoe were
found, and comparison with footmarks
round at the soene of the Hill murder
indicate that tiiev are the imprints of
tne same man. The man's Btride in
each case is 81 inches, and the width
ot the shoe in both oases is
incites.
Bolstering the evidenoe supplied bv
tr.e footprints, the width of the hand
of tho murderer, as traced at the
scenes of both murders is identical
Added to this, Oather brothers de
clare they have sufficient finger
mams to make a microscopical ex
animation or the lines to compare
tnem with the digit marks of the pns
onar held in Tacoma as the murder
suspect.
Soon after the Hill murder. Dr.
Oathey and his brother removed the
window sills and door casings from
the sneiie of the quadruple orime
and from them obtained blood lin
prints by the application of a liquid
whioh has the peculiar virtue of
bringing oat a bluish-green tint
wherever a blood stain has been left.
On the sills and casings were fouud
several imprints of the murderer's
hand. These are said to be identical
with the hand imprints said to have
been left by Peterson in several places
about the hotel at liainier where be
roomed.
Since the above was set, ShorifT
Mass has returned from Olympia and
he states that he does not believe Pot
erson had anything to do with either
crime, and that the mnrderer is yet at
large. Sheriff Mass says the matter
of the blood stains has been greatly
exaggerated, and that the blood found
in his room was canscd by a little girl
catting her finger He says Peterson
gives a full acoount of himself before,
at the time and after the crime and
there does not seem to be any grounds
on which to connect him with the
orime.
lie says the Coble couple were killed
In precisely the same manner as the
Hill family, audthere is every lndloa
tion that the same man oommitted

lu direct contradiction to Sheriff
Mass, O. O. Cathey, of Portland, who
has been working on the case by
means or cue new blood-detecting sys
tern, says that he believes Peterson to
be a degnerate of the lowest type, is
still ooufident, in his own mind, that
he is tne murderer.
"A far as the tcientiflo work is con
cerned, I have finished and I believe I
have the circumstantial evidence all
shaped against Peterson. But I do
not think that anything less than a
complete confession will oonviot him.
we have decided to keen him in soli
tary confinement for six days, in the
hope that he will weaken and make a

that is no evidence at all in a murder
case. J. here are dozens of bits of evi
denoe we have which are unprintable
and all of which go to show that the
two murders were committed by the
tame man. I took his roll of clothes
and examined them I found thirteen
distinct blood spots on his collar,
three distinct splatters on his shirt
front, other streaks and spots on other
parts of his shirt and bloodstains on
his shoes. All were invisible to the

WOULD ANNUL DECREE
Interesting Sequel to Former
County Divorce Matter.
A sequel to a divoroe decree that
was granted in this oity two years
ago, has been on trial here, and as it
oonneots prominent and wealthy peo
ple it has attracted considerable at
tention. The history of the case and the
parties reads much like the plot of a
today popular novel. Charles D.
Taylor was a miner and for 17 years
he hunted out the odd spots of the
states and Alaska for gold, and be is
the man who located the famous Bed
Top gold mine at Goldfleld, Nevada.
A few months later he sold the mine
and oleaned op two and a half million
dollars.
He met Minnie Terwilliger in Gold
fleld, fell in love with her, and they
were married, but it was another
case of where love didn't slip along
smoothly. During a trip to Europe it
is alleged he left her, bat made ar
rangements that she should have a
certain monthly sum for her mainten
ance. On her return to California she
brought suit against Taylor for $250
per month for support when she
loarnoa mat ne naa oeen granted a
divoroe from her in Oregon City near
ly two years before.
Mrs Taylor is seeking to reopen the
case and have the divoroe decree an
nulled on the ground that Bhe knew
nothing of the aotion, had no chance
to defend, that she was not served
with a summons, and that she should
have been entitled to alimony.
Mrs. Taylor attracted considerable
attention while in the city by the
richness of her attire. It is said the
lace dress she wore oost over one
thousand dollars.
The trial was before Judge Eakin ot
Astoria. Brownell & Stone represent
ed Mr. Taylor.
BIG FUTURE IS

ASSURED

PLAN MANY IMPROVEMENTS,
DO YOU THINK?
If You Do, What do you Think of
the Single Tax System?
Next year Claokamas oounty will
vote on the single tax proposition, an
issue on which much can be said both
in favor and against, but for some
reason very little is printed or said.
This is a matter that every voter In
this oounty should be informed on. It
is a sabjeot that needs some study and
good judgment a matter that Bhonld
be openly discussed and carefully read
by every voter. The Courier would be
elud to see more interest in this mat
ter, and we ask any man to use these
columns to express his ideas regard
less of whioh side of the matter he
may take
Many people are a little timid about
writing lor a newspaper for the reason
that they are not just onto the ourves
of grammar and punctuation, bat the
printers are here to dot the "l's", and
cross the 'tV'aud put in the commas.
So if you have anything to say, say it
and we will do the polishing, if any
is necessary.
If both tides of this single tax pro
position would be dioassed bv readers
through the Courier it would be inter
esting reading matter, and wonld aid
much in making clear points on both
sides of which people are not inform
ed. If you think, let us know what
you think. We will not puDlish your
name, if you request. Come a-run-
ning.
SOME QUESTIONS.
The Courier can't Answer them,
Can Anyone Else?
A oity subscriber called op the
Courier Wednesday night with this
enquiry, wiuon we print as it was
taken down :
Editor Courier : As the Courier
seems disposed to print matters of
fast, no matter where located, why
does it not give the verdiot in the case
ot the much-tried Joseph Kerrick,
ana wny Has it never had more oon
oerning the Trembath shooting aJair
weeks ago? I see that verdiots and
entenoes are readily given oat tor in
numerable drunks and minor offenses.
The Courier cannot print a verdiot
until it gets it, and it can't get it.
Joseph Kerrick was arrested May
30, and the oase having been three
times tried, is yet hanging. Reoorder
Stipp does not render a verdiot, and
why he does not rone seem to know.
It would seem, in view of the faot
that the oity oounoil found him guilty
enough to refuse him a license, and
tli at the oounty oourt reversed Mr,
Stipp's former verdiot of guilty, that
Mr. Kerrick would be entitled to
know where he stands some time this
summer. And then the people, too,
want to know.
Regarding the Trembath shooting
affair, whioh oocarredjuue 8, so far
as we can find, although Trembath
was indicted by the grand jury for
assault with a dangerous weapon, he
has never, as we learn, been re
leased on bail, yet is to all appear
ances as free as before the shooting
occurred.
And for farther information, as to
the modus o per end I of the oity and
oounty authorities, we would refer
the subscriber to the offloials.
The Great Success of This Year
Assures Great Future.
This year's session of Gladstone
Chautauqua marks the real beginning
of the great Paolflo coast Chautauqua,
for snch it is destined to be, and suoh
is the fond wish of all who bave
taken part in its past history, to
gether with thousands who have at
tended its many exercises This be
lief is patent because there never has
been so extensive advertising as that
given the institution this year,
thousands vi ho never visited the as
sembly grounds beiore having been
daily in attendance throngh this'
eighteenth session, and word has gone;
broadcast throughout the entire ter
ritory that there will be doable the.
attendance next season, and that
many permanent structures will be
erected and cottages ereoted for those
who wish to attend and enjoy the'
back to nature life so freely offered
upon these grounds, together with the
opportunities presented for the uplift
of oharaoter, the broadening effect
from an educational standpoint and
the general tone and culture instilled.
Willamette Valley Chautauqua this
year was a suooees financially, the net ;
prooeeds amounting to many handreds
of dollars, and with this available;
fund the management have in mind
demanding improvements from a sani
tary viewpoint as well as permanent ,
improvements, and the general beanti-'
fying of the assembly grounds. Just
to what extent, "it is impossible for '
those who have the matter in charge ,
to determine at the present time, but
all may rest assured that these lm-'
provements will be of suoh oharaoter
that those who will be privileged to
attend another season will be most
agreeably surprised and pleased, and
will be the better able to enjoy the
manv excellent features of an aug
mented program.
Throughout this entire season in the .
great auditorium, the lectures, choral 1
numbers, sermons, athletic attrac
tions, and in faot all, have been kept "
up with that excellent standard so i
characteristic of Willamette Chautau-
qua, and in this the management feels -well
repaid for their eftortB, as it his ,
made much for the future success of
the institution, and now with re
newed vigor, there is all promise for
a redoubling of that effort for the
strongest and best that my be had for r
another year. ",'
For the suooess of the affair this i
year the management has received
the highest praise, and deservedly ;
pointed has been the praise proffered
its effloient seoretary, Mr. T. J. 1
Gary. " ,
All are glad that Chautauqua has
done well financially. It means much '
to a oommnnity, to a oounty, and to t
the people of the whole western ooast.
GOVERNOR IS MAD.
Says he will See Critics in Hell
Before He Will Quit.
Governor West says he will see the
oritics of his prison parole soheme in
hell before he will abandon it.
Nioe talk for the governor of a great
state, and a nice policy to apply to a
state that already has murderers and
train robbers running at large.
What Oregon needs Is a lot more
oriminala in jail and less" honor roll"
business. It needs effective punish
ment for criminals and not open pris
on cells, and the state will never rid
itself of the orime whioh is rifling it
nutll it makes punishment fit the
orime, and makes Salem prison a dread
rather than prisoners' summer resort
WHAT IS THE VERDICT
i I, s
A Case at Court that is Being
'Watched With Interest. :
There is a case now before the
courts that is not being tried in the '
oounty oourt house nor in the uffloe of
the justice of peace, and it is more
interesting than any oase brought to
the attention of the people for some
time. , ,
It is Trade at Home versus Spending
yonr Money Out of Town.
The evidenoe is all in.
The case has been snmmed up, the .
jndge has oharged the jury and it ia
now in the hands of the people to
render a verdiot.
Whioh shall it be?
Like some other cases, this one
seems to drag along, and the verdict
for some reason is beld back.
The plaintiffs have now oome for-
ward with a coup which will have
great bearing on the oase and with '
whioh they hope to eventually oarry
the day, and seoure a verdict which
will be equitable, and it is thoaght '
there is something in it .
Just what the movement is that is
being planned by the merobants is
not at present made public but un
doubtedly it will assume the form of
an association, and a getting together
with a kindly and helpful disposition.,, .
Fifteen square feet of land has been
purchased, and already seventeen
hammers have received nnoeremonions
Interment. That's one good move,
and the selection of the old Indian "
