ROGUE RIVER PEARS St. Joseph, Mo., Fruitgrower Tells of Them, SECRET IS THEIR QUALITY WIi.v Southern OrcRon Is Particu larly Adapted to the Culture of This Delicious Fruit for Eastern Markets. J. W. Parkins, a well-known fruit grower of Medford, eontrlbutesan in teresting article to the January num ber of tlic St. Joseph, Mo.. Fruitgrower, in which he sets forth the ad vantages of the Rogue River Valley as a region for producing the finest grades of pears, calling attention at the same time to the certain and at tractive profits to be derived there from. In the estimation of Mr. Perkins, quality is the wnole secret of tne suc eegs achieved ana many reasons arc advanced wny the Rogue River Valley occupies a ,lintinctivc position in tnts respect. He claims that it lies midway between the long, dry, hot Summers of California, on the south, and the con tinuous humidity of the region in the opposite direction. Comment on Eastern Prices. ' Comemnting on the prices received for a fancy lot dc fruit shipped East last Fall, he says: "On October 6, 1905. a car of Cornice pears from the Rogue River Valley, shipped from Medford, Or., was sold at auction in New York City, on the open market, by Messrs. Sgoble & Day. commission merchants, and realized the sum of $3429, being an average of $6.&S per box. The car con tained 50.) boxes of o0 pounds each. Tni6 is the highest price ever paid in the United States for a car of pears. As aweh box averaged between 90 and 100 pears to the box. the price per pear was- between 7 and h' cents. "Compared with prices paid in the Bast and other sections for pears, these Jigurcs may seem beyond belief, yet hundreds of cars of pears from the Rogue River Valley have been sold on the open market at prices which ap proximate the above." The altitude of the Rogue River Val ley ranges from 11500 to 2000 feet above sen lcvol, the -foil is of adobe loam, pecularly adapted to the growth of pears, and thee is no sjuch thing as blight in that district, a disease that is characterized as the worst enemy to be found in the production of the fruit. The main -varieties grown in this val ley are Doyenne du Cornice, Beurre Bosc, Beun-f d'Anjuu, Winter Nellls, Howell and RartWt, and the writer is convinced that nowhere else can they be produced to s,uch excellent advan tage. In conclusion h says: Causes of Success. "The main cause of success in the raising of fancy fruit is care and at tention to every detail of the orchard: of the trees and their treatment; of the fruit, in its different- stagos of ma turity, and or the packing of the fruit after it is takn from the trees. With the many natural advantages that we "enjoy in RogUc River Valley, any one of ordinary Intelligence, giving per son.il attention to all these details and giving the orchard and fruit the ame attention and thought that is required in the commercial world in any line of business, can not fall to make a financial success of an orchard Invest ment. If the facts were all published as exist here today and It were known throughout the country what returns per acre can be made, not only people but capital would flock here to the ex tent that every available foot in this valley would be planted to pear and apple trees, with the result of making Rogue River Valley the fruit center of the United States in the production .of the fanciest grades of pears and apples." CONFLICT OF TWO IDEAS Hamilton Stood for Imperialism, Jefferson for the Individual. The following communication to which edi torial reference was made yesterday, was by accident omitted:) CHEHAL.IS, Wash.. Jan. 20.-(To tho Editor.) The recent banquet in Portland given in commemoration of the birth and services of Alexander Hamilton, illus trates the tendency of the times and of men in the direction of imperialism, spe cial privileges and class distinction. The ideals of the men who eulogized the life and services of Alexander Hamilton are the ideals of Alexander Hamilton at the time of and -prior to the adoption of the Federal Constitution, and "the Hamilton idea was monarchial prerogatives, caste and special privilege. The men who com pare and class Lincoln and Hamilton as holding siimlnr views of the powers and limitations of the National Government are strangely Ignorant of history and are ludicrously Inconsistent. Abraham Lin coln was as far apart In his tastes, in clinations, political tendencies and ideas of popular government from the tastes, inclinations and political tendencies of Alexander Hamilton as are the poles geographically. Lincoln trusted and be lieved In the people. When he said this Is "a government of the people, for the people and by the people," he gave utter ance to a sentiment which was at va riance with Hamilton's idea of govern ment. Hamilton distrusted the people; Lincoln believed in the people. Hamilton would have disfranchised two-thirds of the people; Lincoln would enfranchise those whom Hamilton would have dis franchised. Uncoln believed Jn the divin ity of the people; Hamilton believed In the divinity which hedgcth kings. It has been truly said of Alexander Hamilton that 'he was a man of splendid abilities, of Imperious will and of aristocratic tastes, 'as ambitious for military glory as he was autocratic in temper; ho was under the spell of the limited monarchy Idea. He was In spirit, temper and taste monarchic or Imperialistic, and his contempt for' the masses or the 'mob,' as, the early Fed eralists were pleased to term the .people "was as sincere as was his deep-rooted dis trust of them. With him the old Tory citizens went heart and soul." Ho ajso attracted the shrewd financiers, who saw In his schemes golden opportunities for the acquisition of special privileges that would enrich the few, not Infrequently at the expense of the many. Wherever the Hamiltonian theories have been put In practice the result has been to build up and bring into being these privileges which are antagonistic to the fundamental, principles upon which all free govern- ments should rest. Had Abraham. Lincoln lived In "the days of Hamilton' he would have aligned himself against the ideas of Hamilton. Had Jefferson lived in tne tlmo of Lincoln he would have siood Just where Lincoln stood In 60 to '65. It Is history that the ..bitterness of the struggle-between Jefferson and-Hamllton; or rather the 'antagonism between the principles advocated by each, led to the retirement? of Jefferson from the Cabinet, but he succeeded in arousing the masses to the peril arising from the attitude of Hamilton and his adherents for privilege and monarchlalism. No truer tribute was ever paid to Jefferson's loyalty to the cause of popular government than the fol lowing extract from the pen of Mary Pratt Parmalcc: "The story of the war of opinions which waged so fiercely over the cradle of the Republic Is simply that of a conflict be tawcen two everlasting principles, which so long as the world stands will be ar rayed against each other. Thomas Jeffer son was an uncompromising champion of Individualism and against paternalism. The effort of his life was to reduce the powers of the central government to the minimum and to exalt to the maximum the Importance of the individual. In a character less nicely balanced, a mind less philosophical, and a heart less simply In tent upon the highest good of his country, so strong a tendency might have been dangerous. But Jefferson loved his coun try more than his theory. He was not a fanatic or an enthusiast, but a man with deep convictions and an unbending pur pose. Hamilton openly declaring that a limited monarchy was the best form of government: John Adams sendfhg forth philosophical diatribes upon the benefit of a landed aristocracy and the hereditary principle: even Washington investing his. office with a sort of regal state, and his person with some of the divinity which doth belong to a King; Jefferson alone seemed to comprehend American Institu tions as experience and time have devel oped them." If Hamilton fought for the adoption of the Constitution, he disliked its repub lican character. If his opinions and ideas had prevailed, the offices of President and Senators would have been for life or good behavior. All State Governors would have been appointed by the President. Only the landed classes could liave voted for Xational Senators, or. to speak more cor rectly. State Senators to the Xational Congress. In uniting the fortunes of Vir ginia with the fortunes of Massachusetts Jefferson voiced to the world a cry of a people for independence. His Declaration of Independence is the richest legacy ever bequeathed to a grateful, strong and free people. w. W. LANGHORNE. RICH REPLIES TO IM ASKS WHY THE MAYOll WAS NOT A WITNESS. Declares if He Had Evidence He Should Huvc Keen Sworn at the Trial. Thomas Richards, when atfkcd yester day If he had any reply to make to Mayor Lane's open letter in yesterday's Oregonian, said he had nothing to say excepting that he had been tried by a Jury of fair-minded men, who had been selected by Mayor Lane's own officers, who had been accepted by the city, and after hearing all the evidence, had brought in a verdict of vindication within SO minutes. He added: "Mayor Lane raves about the jury ap parently about the same as he does about my hotel, and I want to say light here. If he Is not satisfied with the verdict It comes with very bad grace for a public, fwprn official to find fault with and criti cize the verdict of men selected by his own officers and none of whom I knew. "If Mayor Lane has any such evidence as he talks about In his letter I am con fident the fair-minded people of this city will agree with me that at the trial of the case was the time and place to pro duce it, and It Is unfair and cowardly to evade the witness-stand and afterward flaunt what he says he knew. If he had any such evidence and did not produce It upon the trial he is culpable, and I think he should hold his peace or should be im peached for not doing his duty upon the day of trial. I have made it my business In the past to give orders to my help to observe the law in every particular, and I shall continue to do so in the future. I have tried to conduct a place where the respectable people of the city couiu be served meals, and I propose to continue to conduct Richards' Hotel In accord ance with law. Irrespective of Mayor Lane's threats to put me out of busi ness." DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPOKT. I PORTLAND. Jan. 21 Maximum tempera, lure. 45 dep.: minimum. 40. River reading at It A.
