HOW TO KILL TURKEYS Chop Off Their Heads, or Stun Them With Blow, Which? CORVALLIS, Or., Nov. 10. (To the Edi tor.) Thanksgiving Is coming and thousands of turkeys have got to die; and. -while die they must, it is due to them and all other birds and animals that they should be killed In the most merciful way possible. The Portland and most other markets demand that turkeys should be killed by bleeding In the mouth, having been first stunned by a blow on the bead. Is this a human way to kill thtra? For my own use. 1 have generally chopped turkeys' and chickens heads olean off with one blow of a sharp hatchet or ax; but It Is .possible that a heavy blow on the skull would paralyze the nerves of feeling quicker and be more merciful. I usually shoot In center of forehead, bleeding them after- GRAIN VESSELS EX ROUTE Name. Flar and rig. Sept. 23iAUce Marie. Ft. bark..1731lHobart Ft. bark..(2045 Hobart.

G. A Observations and ICeflcctions. MARSHFIELD, Or., Nov. 13. (To the Editor.) It may not seem the proper thing for one who has stepped outside of the ranks of the old parties into socialism to say any thing at the present time. But as w hav to live in the old structure until the new oni Is built, and the building of the new has to wait the acquiescence of the majority of the Amorlcan people, a word in regard to our present political housekeeping may not be so out of place after all. In old times there was such a thing as what was termed honor: and a man would go out and light to his death rather than to have his honor nullled. But today that has gone by. and honor now appears to be a forgotten relic of the past. It loekn to me that had there any of that spirit sur vived the three men who were chosen to represent us in Washington, when they saw that their Influence to far as the welfare of the State of Oregon, which had honored them with their high positions, was gone, the first thing they should have done would ha' boon to step down and out. so as to not remain In th way of the people sending others there who might have influence, and be of some benefit to our people here. Then they could have squared themselves to the battle of clearing their drapery of the filth declared to be attached to them. If It was within their power to do so. Perhaps they are conscious of tha fact that they are really no worse than many others who are there, but they were un fortunate enough to have been pulled," while their "pals" are going ahead quite serenely without being molested. The fact that the great majority of the American people feel that the whole bunch of them are sufficiently tainted that they ought to be carried out with a pair of tongs does not seem to trouble them at all: and the people have no great right to complain, as It Is within their province to imperatively demand a higher standard of honor. When we come to think of the present sit uation It. is rather surprising. "We elect a member to the Legislature under a promise that he will do some certain thing; he goes and violates that promise in e'cry feature, and his action blinds the people, even though ever so contrary to their desires (ex cept in local laws In the State of Oregon; though in voting for ITnlted States Senator the people of this state are as powerless as any other state); and the Senator elected by that member violating his pledge to the people can bind the people of the country to any obnoxious sell-out he may find to his profit to Impose upon them. I know this question is asked by a great many: "But what are we going to do about It?" We send those people to represent us In good faith; but the only thing they ap pear to do is to tie us while others ekln us. How are we going to have anything differ ent? Matters appear to bo getting worse; and human promises amounto nothing any more, and we don't know who to trust. Socialism involves the necessity "of an en tirely new governmental scruclure, and will require a good deal of careful architec tural work, and careful preparation and selection or material, and when once started the new waters Into which wo are to sail will require watchful scanning to keep off thoals. But all this Is necessarily In the future, some ways ahead; and It Is the patching up the old leaky structure In which we still must stay for a time that re quires our attention for the present; yet not so entirely but what some right' good solid thinking about the planning of a "better structure would come in good plac.

His 'election a wonderful change in the man; he turned upon nis inonos ana they forsook him. and after a brief career In aa office he mignt have been holding, today, Hender son was for ed not alone out of the Speakership, but out of the House of Representatives and out of nubile life. His enemies collected his record: ihv hart the facts; the facts would not look well in print, and rather than face a public scandal, Henderson obliterated himself. This was the sudden fall of a once pop ular woi. But he brought lt-on himself. The public career, indeed. thA whnl iif. of Henderson is full of interesting events. Born in Scotland, he came to this rnun. try Vlth his parents when but 7 years old. At the outbreak of the Civil "War he enlisted as a private, and by deeds of valor rose to the grade of Colonel. After the close of the war. in whfch h iBt leg, Henderson studied law In the office or miiiam B. Allison, in Dubuque. Fol lowing a successful practice, he was elect ea to the Forty-eighth Congress, and norved to the end of the Flftv-xevAnrh His career in Congress was not im.h a a characterized most men who have been elevated to the Speakership; ho was Iden tified with no prominent legislation; he renaerca no particular service of merit, but he was a good Congressman for ton he held good committee places and he was an all-round good worker. But his success was due more to the fart that he was a "food fellow" than to any partlc ular ability he displayed. Elected Because of Joviality. "Dave" Henderson owed his election to his personal popularity. As a member on the floor of the House, he made Innumcr able friends. He was . cnnn tnvfni ty panion; an excellent story-teller; he made a spienum speech of the spread-eagle sort, and he was a favorite af tpr-Hlnnor- u9v. er. He liked a bottle of wine and a good. Birong cigar. When Speaker Reed passed out of Congress, the RenubHrans somewhat sore after smarting under his lashings, and they turned to Henderson, "because he was so different." They chose mm in preference to Uncle Joe Cannon wo uas yjnee lurnea out to be more popular than Henderson ever was. imnon was defeated for Congress in 1SQ0. and lost his place at the head of the appropriations committee. That Wi Tfi. derson at the head of the Renuhlican ut but the Congress was Democratic, and Henderson did not nroflt. Turn later Cannon was re-elected, and would. aturauy nave lost his prestige, but Hen aerson magnanimously stopped aside, yielded his seniority right to the chair manship, and Cannon was restored to his former place, which he held until he be came Speaker. This was an unusual thing for any member to do. but it Illustrates the type of man Henderson was in the aays prior to his elevation to the Speak oranip. Elevation "Swelled His Head." No man in the recollection of any pres cnt member of Congress underwent such a complete change upon being elected Speaker. To use a common, but effective, expression. Henderson got a, severe case of "swelled head" aa soon as he became Speaker, where he had been companion able, he became haughty; where he had been the best of good fellows, he was un approachable as Speaker; where he had' a hearty greeting for every member In tho days when he was on the floor, he scarce ly recognized many of his friends after he became Speaker. A more complete and sudden change never took place In any man. It hurt Henderson: it weakened his In fluence; it made enemies of many of his friends; and In the end it was instru mental In leading to his downfall. As Speaker, Henderson was insistent that his position should be properly rec ognized at all official functions In "Wash ington. He refused more than one in vitation to dinners and receptions because he felt that proper deference was not be ing shown his position. But because he was Speaker, and in spite of his disposi tion, he was at most of the official din ners and receptions. Too Fond or Bottle. It was here that Henderson met his Waterloo. In the late years of his public career In Washington he developed a great fondness for liquid refreshments. and commonly partook of more than politeness and good manners would re quire. This was a common occurrence, whether at a "stag" dinner or a. dinner attended by ladies, and frequently his conduct at these dinners was offensive. Several hostesses eventually took his name off their lists and would not invite him, notwithstanding he was Speaker of the House. At several big dinners In Washington his conduct became Indescrib able; the true story of his performances has never been printed, and out of def erence to the ladles will never be printed. But the facts found their way Into the hands of Henderson's political enemies In Iowa; not mere rumors, but sworn state ments, going Into details. When Hender son had been nominated for the Fifty- eighth Congress, and his election was ap parently assured, as was his re-election to the Speakership, he suddenly, without ap parent cause, withdrew his name, and said he would not be a candidate for re election. He assigned political reasons. The true reason was that he had been confronted with the affidavits In the bands of his enemies; they had threatened to publish the facts unless he withdrew from politics, and rather than shoulder the humiliation, Henderson took the only alternative. Sour, Disappointed Man. It was a bitter disappointment to him t6 be forced to withdraw from Congress at a time when he wielded such power: he enjoyed life in Congress, even though his nature had changed. He was anxious to hold onto the Speakership. But he could not face his own record, so he re tired. From that day to the end Hen derson has brooded over his enforced ob literation; his brooding brought on chronic sickness, and for many months past It has been realized that his end was near. He wont down a broken-hearted man. He was Speaker onl yfour years; had he led a different life, he might have been in good health and sure of re-election to the Speakership next December. But he had to pay the fiddler. His exit from politics was one of the most dram atic Incidents In the history of American politics. Many stories are told of Henderson In the days before he became Speaker; the days when he was popular. He was chairman of the Judiciary committee. That committee had to pass upon the question raised by General Joe "Wheeler as to his right to retain his seat in Congress while holding a commission in the United States Army during the Spanish-American War. After the committee had given full con sideration to the question and reached a conclusion Henderson sent for Gen eral Wheeler, and addressed him In this dramatic way: "Joe Wheeler, if I had met you in the South during the Civil War I would have etteemed it a duty and a pleasure to shoot you, for you were a traitor to your country and deserved to be shot, but now I want to say it gives me more sorrow than I can express to be compelled under the Federal constitution to-decide against your right to hold a seat In Congress while fighting for your country." When He Stopped n Riot In the stormy days of the House of Representatives. Just before the adoption of the resolutions precipitating the war with Spain. Colonel "Henderson prevented a general riot on the floor. Partisan feel ing was running very high, and Repre sentatives Brumm. of Pennsylvania, and Bartiett, of Georgia, became Involved In a1 dispute and the lie was exchanged. Members began throwing copies of the Congressional Record at one another's heads and to strike out right and left with their fists. aa4 ope excited South erner drew a knife. There was a great rush of members Into the space directly in front of the Speaker's stand, which for the time being seemed transformed into a fighting pit Suddenly Henderson came hopping down the aisle on his crutch, and leaning him self against the desk, he waved his crutch in the air and his voice rang out In a clarion call for order. For the time he seemed to override even the npwer of Speaker Reed. "Members of the Houso of Representa tives," he shouted, "you forget where you are. Back to your seats!" The command was effective. Members halted and dropped into convenient seats; and In a few minutes Henderson's crutch had completely restored order where the gavel of Speaker Reed had apparently failed. 5 JAPANESE SEND AID TO .RUS SIAN TRANSPORTS. Admiral Rojestvcnsky Amoiifr the Number Being Sent Out From Toklo to Vladivostok. TOKIO, Nov. 13. (60 P. M.) A tele gram from Nagasaki says that 500 of the Russian prisoners of war bound for Vladivostok on board the vessels Vladimir and BoroneJI have shown signs of mu tiny.

The new convention agreed upon by Japan and Corca, in ad dition to establishing the status of Jap anese residents and the transfer of the management of foreign relations to Japan, provides that there shall be no interfer ence with existing treaties and also for the re-transfer of the administration of external nations, when the Corcan gov ernment is capable of so doing. It is believed that the working out of the details of the new programme will require some months, and It Is probable that the Japanese, as well as foreign Le gations, will remain until the new regime is established.

EMPEROR WILL NOT YIELD Conference Is Carried On With Great Heat, While Japanese Soldiers Patrol the Streets to Pre vent an Uprising. SEOUL. Nov. IS. (Delayed in Transmis sion.) The conference of nearly a week between the Japanese envoy, headed by Marquis Ito. and the Corcan cabinet ended yesterday and was followed early this morning by a nine-hours' sitting at the palace with the Emperor. At the beginning of today's session Bar on Hayashl declared his determination not to withdraw until the four demands made by Marquis Ito were signed. The sus pense was ended at 1:30 o'clock this morn ing when the Cabinet, with the exception of the Minister of Agriculture and Min ister of Foreign Affairs Pakchisun having yielded, sent for the Imperial seals and signed the desired agreement. The four Japanese demands were as follows: First The appointment of a Japanese ad ministrator to govern Corea under the Era pror. Second The appointment of Japanese ad ministrators at all treaty ports. Third The transfer of Corcan diplomatic afTalr to Toklo. Fourth No arrangements to br made with ether powers without the convent of Japan. Three thousand Japanese soldiers main tained a demonstration all yesterday on the esplanade before the old palace. Jap anese troops patrolled the streets all night. The Emperor's palace was also surrounded with troops and Japanese sol diers and police were lodged In the grounds of the palace. Minister Pakchisun and the Minister of Agriculture continue to hold out with the Emperor against the action of the Japan ese. .Minister Pakchisun. In leading the opposition against the signing of the de mands of Marquis Ito, adjured the Em peror with the most powerful argument possible to a superstitious benighted sov ereign, namely, that his consent would af front and outrage all the spirits of his Imperial ancestors. After the refusal of the Emperor to re turn the first visit of Marquis Ito.. the Marquis remained in the background. The conference between Baron Hayashl and the 'Corean cabinet which led to an agreement began yesterday morning at the Japanese Legation and was so violent as to attract attention on adjacent streets. It resulted In Pakchisun and the Minister of Agriculture dramatically denouncing the proceedings and withdrawing to the Ones See Them Tremendous Assortment o!

After the sig natures and seals were attached the Jap anese nilHtary paraded through the city. Baron Hayashl, after securing the con sent of the majority of the cabinet, went from the Legation to the palace, where he attempted to convince the Emperor and the two remaining Ministers of the Justice of his mission, but failed. He then secured the seals through the other Min isters. The Emperor-took alarm at the contents and the ione of Marquis Ito's credentials when they were presented to him on the 10th Instant, the day after the arrival of the Marquis. His alarm was Increased because the Japanese sought to have the Marquis occupy the Emperor's audience chambers and there receive a return visit from the Emperor, who resisted, feigning sickness.
