BENEFITS OF .CONVENTION Will Result -iii More Harmony Among Members and. Tend to liaise the Standard of Oregon's Or chard Products. JIORTieULTURAJ.. SOCIETY'S NEW officers. President Dr. J. It. Cardwpll. Vice-president Col. Harry Haynes. Second rlce-presld.ent J. II. Iteld. Secretary and treasurer Proressor E. It. Lake. "When the second and last day's ses sion oC the sixth annual meeting of the State Horticultural Society closed yesterday evening it was agreed that a more harmonious feeling and understanding existed between the fruitgrowers of the state than ever be fore, and It Is prophesied by evory member that the future of fruitgrow ing will be brighter for the convention. The slogan in Oregon is now good fruit better frtiit the best fruit that it Is possible to produce. The standard set by Hood River fruit men is con sidered an honor to the Pacific North west and it is the purpose of the State Horticultural Society to make for Ore gon a National reputation. The election of officers consumed a portion of the afternoon session and the re-election by acclamation of Dr. J. R. Cardwell and his fellow olllcers gave the greatest satisfaction. Dr. Cardwell has held the office of presi dent during the 16 years of the so ciety's existence, and takes more active Interest in its affairs today than ever. E. L. Smith, of Hood River, paid him a graceful tribute in a nominating speech, referring to the faithful service he has given. The award of the handsome cups fur nishod for premiums was satisfactory to the members of the society, and they are all determined to make renewed offorts next year to carry home the much-coveted trophies. In 1907 cups will be given for North ern Spies, Yellow Newtowns, Spitzen bergs, Jonathans, Arkansas Blacks, Baldwins, Wagners and "VVinesaps. There will also be second prizes, and aside from cups there will be awards made for the best exhibits of Gravcn stelns, Orelys, Lady apples, Ben Davis; Hyde's King of the "West. Red Cheek Pippins the exhibits requiring 21 ap ples of any one variety. The sweep stakes will be for first and second prize for best commercial exhibit of 21 apples of ench variety The score will be counted as follows: Form. 15; size, 20; color. 20; keeping quality, 20: free from blemish, 25. There will also be a cup for the best plate of the best exhibit of dried Ital ian prunes and alsq of French prunes; and English walnut exhibits will comtf in for a first and second-prize cup. This will make more prizes than were given this year, and covers more varieties. Everything possible is being1 done to stimulate the industry of fruit culture and the growers arc not slow in catch ing the spirit of progress and the de sire to rank high in tholr chosen in dustry. County Fruit Inspector J. H. Hold was presented with a fine hat yesterday by the local wholesale fruit dealers. Attendance Is Increased. The programme of yesterday was fully as Interesting as the one of Tuesday, and some enjoyed it better. The at tendance was larger than on opening day, and deep attention was given the various discussions. Edmund P. Sheldon's paper on "Economic For estry" was a masterpiece on that all important subject, and Albert Ray's address on "The Hop In Oregon" was thought by many to be one of the finest of the day. Asa Holaday. of Scup poosc, who carried off the much-coveted honors for Northern Spies and Jona thans, gave much valuable information about' "The Home Orchard," and those who saw his fine fruit were most anx ious to learn his methods. "Hood River Methods" were discussed by E. H. .Shepherd, who told the convention a few tly'ngs about the way the grow ers of that section handle their fine orchards, of the exceeding care they give thorn, and of the fine results they have as a reward for their trouble. A talk on roses always interests Ore gonians. and the announcement that AV- 1. Sibson would talk on "The Rose in Oregon" brought out a good at tendance of Portland rosarians. This talk was in the nature of personal experience, as Mr. Sibson has been more than .ordinarily successful In roso culture. E. Ij. Smith's paper on "The Outlook" created more than ordinary interests as he Is widely informed as to general conditions in Oregon. Mr. Smith said among other things: "Coming nearer home we find that Oregon. "Washington and Idaho had j;,n4l.071 apple trees, in orchards, ana 1 hazard the estimate that this number has been increased 20 per cent the past fite years, giving in these three states a grand total of not less than 7,700,000 trees. "What proportion of these ap ple trees are bearing or will bear No. 1 commercial apples? In answering this .question you must take Into con sideration unsuitable soils, neglect of cultivation, pruning and spraying. Sum mer droughts and killing frosts of Winter, sleet and wind storms, insect posts, rodents and fungi, and causes too numerous to name. Again, in this cal culation please do not forget thai an nually a vast number of bearing trees arc going out of commission, the nat ural sequence of old age. Material for Many Bonfires. "A ride through the Willamette Val ley -will afford a striking illustration of this fact, for you will observe many orchards whose day and generation has passed; and there they stand, those pi oneer trees, hoary with the mossy growth of many years clinging to them, fit objects for the crematory. "Permit me to exercise my Yankee privilege of guessing that if the cen sus enumerator had counted only healthy, vigorous trees bearing No. 1 apples his returns would have been less by 50, aye, by more than 7C per cent. In other words, it is my judgment that not more than-ione tree out of every four probably one in eight would be nearer correct in the United States, is producing clean, healthy, merchant able apples." v1Vifebeater Must Reform. Dan 'May, .a woodchoppcr, arrested for beating Tals wife. Eva May. was re leased by Judge Frazer yesterday upon his promise to support his five children. The case against him was not dis missed, but was indefinitely continued. THE STORY OF DEMOCRACY Has Merely, Stood for Opposition to Republican Party. SALEM. Jan. 10. (To the Editor.) Mr. Stephen Jewell, of La, Grande, claims to have given a true definition of the term Dem' ocrat as applied to party, and I am strongly Inclined to the opinion he Is correct In his diagnosis, so far as he goes, as he "points with pride to the fact that we stood as one man with our sympathies and our votes for the people of the South while they were shamefully treated by the Republican carpet-baggers." He might also hae truth fully added that they did the same thing dur ing the four years of rebellion. Tho only other characteristic by which .the Demo cratic party is known is its persistent and consistent opposition to any and all measures advocated by the Republican party, from the preservation of the Union, the abolition f -slavery and the granting of equal rights to all American citizens, to the protection of home industries and the establishment of a sound and safe financial system. But when he gives the age of the Republican party at 40 years, and bases that assertion upon the repudiation of Lincoln and Greeley by the party. I protest he is misleading in his al leged facts, for I remember distinctly of r SHERIFF WORD. "Words arc better than diode. Impolicy Is the best policy. Give me publicity or give me death. A Word that's mo to the wise is sufficient. "Watch me swell. having voted the Republican ticket 50 years Ago. Up to the time ef the ansastaatton of President Lincoln no Democrat ef any prominence or influence in his party vur publicly, even by implication, po mttch as intimated that Mr. Lincoln was other than an enemy to the South and to the Southern people. We know that he never "j'nipa t hi red with slavery, releIIen, trcasen or traitors while 11 vine; what he would havo done if lie had lived to mtyc his ?oouml term as President wc can only Jurmifw, Iwt It Is safe to ay that he would have been in full accord with his party In the matter of fcccurln? the rights of citizenship to the race whofie shackles he had broken, wMcfc was "the shameful treatment" the Demo cratic party o strenuously pped. As to Horace Greeley the ease is different. While the party rejected him. It dd not the Republican principles for which lw had battled ?o faithfully for many year. I can bet illustrate this by a little rtorj" A wealthy sheepman in California was about to die. Re tiad a large band of sheep which he wished to divide equally between bis two Hons. The older wn was a bright, active, wideawake business man, white the younger on was a simple-minded, aey-glitg lad with no taste for bunlnws or disposition to care for himself. The father called the oMcr m to his bedside and said to him: L am about to die. and want to tell you what I wish you to do with the sheep. You will lt vidc them Into two ban tin of ounl numbers and then lot your brother have his choice." The son promised to faithfully carry out his instructions, and the father jtamd away In Icaee. The older son, with an . eye t busi ness, carefully divided the flock as directed, but selected all the host and put them In one lot, and the remainder, which -consisted of the old and scrubby of the -flock. In an other. Now. the younger in had a jK-t sheep of which he was very fond; In fact, he thought more of that sheep than he did of any other thin? on the place, and this whoop the elder brother plaeed with the lat ter band. This being done he called the younger brother ' to make his choice. The boy looked the better lot over, and, not see ing his pet among them, decided he did not want that band: then, going to the other, much to his joy. he found the much-loved sheep, whom he addressed aa follows: "You are a good sheep, Billy, and I love you. I love you better than anything la the world, Billy; wc have never been tarted and havo always been good friends, but wc must part now, Billy, you are in jsuch bad company," and turning about took the other Hock. Greeley was in bad company. As to the s,Hhamcful treatment by Repub lican carpet-baggers," I would like to know If Mr. Jewell speaks from a personal knowl edge or from reports from those who folt that their Inalienable lights were restricted when they were denied the right to "wallop the niggor?" . DAN WEBSTER. HE SCENTS A CONSPIRACY E. S. Gordcn, of Coos Bay, Suspects Plot in Namesake's Marriage. Edward Sam Gordon, a wealthy Coos Bay resident, is wondering whether or not a conspiracy is on foot to pro cure his property after death by a bogus Edward Sam Gordcn jand a wom an -who lately became a Mrs. Edward Sam Gordcn. On October 19, 1905, a woman giving the name of Miss Ber tha Etta Lclch appeared before the County Clerk of Clark County, Wash ington, and applied for a marriage license, saying she 'desired to marry Edward Sam Gordon. She gave Port land as her residence and that of the prospective groom, but she failed to exhibit her Intended spouse, witnesses or affidavit, and was told that a license could not issue under the circum stances. October 20 she returned with an afll davit bearing the sljrnaturc of Mrs, A. Mancc, of Portland, which was at tested before J. S. "Willis, a notary pub lic, of this city also. Upon this show ing the license was issued. On the following day they were mar ried in Vancouver, Wash., and from that time to this nothing has been heard from them. The real Edward S. Gorden lias retained a lawyer to fore stall any plot that may be on foot. Mayor Itecommcnds Economy. TILLAMOOK, Or., Jan. 10. (Special.) In his inaugural message Mayor T. H.

GRANGE IN SESSION Oregon Farmers Meet aMnter esting Convention. MANY CHANGES ARE URGED Juvenile Court for Clackamas County Recommended Members Urged to Circulate Petitions Under the Initiative Laws. More than 200 farmers, composing Po mona Grange. Patrons of Husbandry, of Clackamas County, and guests from the surrounding' counties, met with Oswego Grange yesterday and last evening, it be ing the regular quarterly meeting. Nearly all the state officers were present. MIDWEEK APOTHEGMS OF PORTLAND MEN TOM It rt'l LANDS. 1 run a hotel, an' I did quite well until the bloomln law saW my work was raw. and raided the shop from bottom to top. Oh! woe is me. It's tough, B' gee! including State Master B. G. Lcedy. Sec retary Mary S. Howard. Lecturer Clara H. Waldo and Chaplain Eaton. William Grlseenwaitc was the presiding officer of the day. In the forenoon. Lecturer G. A. Starkweather read reports from local Graugos showing progress in membership and Interest. The reception commute headed by C. T. Dickinson ami Mrs. Dick inson, welcomed, evorj'one. and no stranger was overlooked. Luncheon was served. luvcnllc Court for Clackamas. Mrs. M. L. Johnson introduced a reso lution for tho establishment of a juvenile court for Clackamas County. Site sup ported her motion with an effective ad dress, netting forth the . advantages of such a court in reforming young boys and girls. Captain Apperson spoke of tho Juvenile Court a tin best movement that could b made. Richard Scott wild that Judge Ryan had such a court already In operation and had a number of boys out on parole. The motion was carried for the appointment of a special committee of three to Investigate the wholo subject and look Into the workings of Judge Ryan's Court. Mrs. Clara II. Waldo, on invitation, ex plained tho two initiative laws which the Patrons arc now trying to havo sub mitted to a vote of the people at tho Juno election. Including a tax on tele graph, telephone and express companies, oil companies and sloeplng-cars. She mado an earnest appeal for the active .circulation of tho petitions anklng for the putting of these laws to a vote. The subject was widely discussed. Cap tain Apncrson spoke strongly for active circulation of the petitions as did W. Grissenwalte. S. C Spcncc and others. Mrs. Waldo and Mr. Spcncc declared that the Initiative law put out by the re cent congress held at Woodburn was crude and full of hasty work. Mr. Spcncc picked "flaws" in the Wood burn law and declared It was full of "Jokers" which would result In invali dating what the Patrons of Husbandry wore undertaking. State Master B. G. Leedy called atten tion to tho resolution passed by tho Na tional Grange asking tho National Gov ernment to remove the Internal revenue tax on alcohol rendered unfit for use as a beverage, but valuable in manufacturing uses.

I want to welcome Mrs. Waldo as a mem ber the first woman to receive that honor. T think it a very fit appointment, as one-third of the students of that Insti tution are j'oung women. I am sure she will be able to benefit the collccc. Mrs. Waldo said In rcplv: "I do not take this honor upon myself, but I take It as an honor conferred upon the women of this state and upon the Grange. I thank you for this expression." A strong resolution was passed Indors ing the movement to eradicate San Jose scale and other fruit pests In the state. The efforts of all engaged In this, work were heartily commended. At the close of the business session the fifth dj;ree was conferred upon a large class. Last night an Instructive programme was ren dered, which Included an address by J. W. Bailey, pure food comlssloncr. who spoke on the subject of pure food. The session was considered the best yet held, and the entertainment b- Oswego Grange was heartily commended. Same Old Trail. PORTLAND. Jan.. 10. (To the Editor.) In Friday's Oregonlan. Mr. Schlff. of Kuhn. Loeb & Co.. bankers, sounded a. note of warning to the people that unless the monty system of the United States were at once changed and made more elastic, and the banks authorized to Issue emergency money when the supply became short, the Nation would see such timet as, were never before witneejed such times as would make all pan money panics seem Insignificant. On this scare statement many thousands of dol lars were made and lost on Wall street, rrecldeat Hoosevelt la bis last menage as well as In others called the attention of Congress to this inelasticity business and urged that something be done to help out the banks, as they were the legitimate source to which the people must look for & money sup ply. The Secretary of tho Treasury. Mr. Shaw, in his report said that to fix this up right the National banks should be author ised to Issue 50 per cent of their present cir culation on the security now on deposit In addition to what was already in use. and that 5 to 6 per cent be charged for the prir liege of so doing till such time as they were ready to return it. Mr. Schirt in his speech says that this per cent business is all wrong. Of course It is. Any per cent is wrong. Some two or three years ago the president o? the National Banking Association, at its session in New Orleans. Issued the same warning cry that the country was doomed unless tho banks were permitted to issue additional notes on ascet security, and so It has gone for years at almost every session of Congress. In the meantime National vbank notes have In creased till they now number f533.00O.000. according to Vanderllp's financial review in Sunday's Oregonlan. Since the Spanish war he says these notes have doubled and have Increased In the past year $73,000,000. Fifty per cent of J333.000.000 Is 52S7.SOO.000 as per Secretary Shaw's recommendation. To me this looks very much like inflation of the mort unjust kind, as all these dollars are purely promt to pay 23 or 30 years hence at u, of 1 per cent interest. Not an actual gold or silver dollar do these notes represent. Of course, bonds are deposited to secure redemption. An ordinary engine or dynamo with some good paper and a skillful operator, and the work is done. ,A WHO ARE IN THE GLARE OF THE V. W. BANKS. Oh. Billy Banks, declines with thanks to furthor journey as U. S. Attorney. It's an awful blow to the people, we know. by magic millions ef so-called dollars spring late existence and still the cry Is tor more. A National banker is quite a personage, but I do net deem him to be of any mor Importance than a good healthy farmer or & railroad manager or a foundryman. so far as business right go: I do not think he Is en titled to any more Government aid than the latter personages, and If the American peo ple were on their guard he would not get these special privileges. The banking associ ation has closed down our silver mines, and suspended the coinage of silver Into dollars because such a course makes more room for machine paper- money that costs little or nothing to the originator. If the banks want truo and real elasticity In the mony system they will do something to Inspire more confidence In the people and will be Milling to release their hold 'on the threat of fllvcr. the real money metal of the world, and admit It to equal coinage with gold. Then the wheels bf machinery will hum In the mining regions, the people will find employment and dollars that will not tarnish and beeimc filthy with disease; dollar that represent something beside a promise to pay. will put elasticity in all business. In all muscle. In all effort and with it the race will rle to a higher standard of existence. The continuance of the granting of these special and unheard-of privileges will sweep this republic into an Intolerable des potism before many decades pass. I have tod much faith in the Intelli gence of the great American people to be lieve that they will much longer submit to such unjust discrimination between trade and occupations. The cement that has held the political parties together In the past has leaked out and the people without dis tinction of party arc looking for the things that menace them In their homes In their very existence. The next great issue before this great Na tion will be the financial system. Including the kind of dollars to be usd. and who shall create, them. You say. 'Those Issues are dead." After death comes the resurrection. It the Government guarantees the paper of Hlchard Hoe. It must guarantee the paper of John Doe with like security. The Gov ernment has no constitutional right to do either. W. IL S. GUARD FORJTHE STUDENTS Chinese Visitors Frightened With Talcs Told Them. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 10. The Chinese Consul has announced that he would re quest a police guard for the commission of students sent out from China to study the governments of the world, who arc expected to arrive In this city Friday. The Consul has said that he knew that no protection would be needed, but that his countrymen were afraid because of the terrible stories which circulate In China, and they would not feel safe with out protection. The commissioners win be formally re ceived on their arrival on the steamer Siberia by J. B. Black. Adjutant-General, Collector of the Port Stratton. and others. The members of the commission will not stay long in San Francisco. They will be greeted by the Chinese of the city, driven about, and probably banqueted. They will leave at once for Washington, where they will remain for 40 days, studying tho United States form of government, pro ceeding thence to Europe FIGHT OVER A TIN PAIL Xewcomcr at Los Angeles Stabbed and Shot by Mexican.

East Side residents had their first session with the Portland Gas Com pany yesterday, for they have from the 10th to the 15th of every month in which to pay their bill In order to se cure the rebate offered by the concern. Residents of the other side of the river, while every -bit as anxious to register a kick against the grasping methods of the company, were not as liberal in permitting the use of their names. All manner and kinds of com plaints were registered by the East SIdcrs who found their bills greatly in excess of the proper figures, and like their fellow citizens on the "West Side, who held forth at the gas ofllec last week, many of them found fault with the quality of the gas piped to their houses.

The happy wife of a good old-fashioned Michigan farmer says: "In the Spring of 1102 I was taken sick a general breaking down, as it were. I was excessively nervous, could not sleep well at night, my food seemed to do me no good, and I was so weak I could scarcely walk across tho room. "The doctor said my condition was due to overwork and closr confinement and that he very much feared that consump tion would set In. For several months I took one kind of medicine after another, but with no good cfTect in fact, I seemed to grow worse. "Then I determined to quit all medi cines, give up coffee and see what Grape Nuts food would do for mc. I began to eat Grape-Nuts with sugar and cream and bread and butter three times a day. "The effect was surprising! 'l began to gain flesh and strength forthwith, my nerves quieted' down and grew normally steady and sound, sweet sleep came, back to me. In six weeks' time I discharged the hired girl and commenced to do my own housework for a family of six. This was two years ago, and I am doing It still, and enjoy it."
