YOU TOT TO KNOW WHAT SMARTLY DRESSED MEN :j will wear this season ask ben selling about it Courf Affirms Ruling on - Timber Sales. A IMPORTANT WASHINGTON CASE Worn IP" Tilisf mm mwm I i EP if U t .XbULULR State Representatives Move One to Head Qff Speculators Action "Will Probably De Appealed to tlic Supreme Court. DLYMPIA, Sept 27. (Special.) The State Land Ofllce has received word that the Superior Court of Wahkiakum has af firmed the board's decision in the matter Of refusing to grant an application for the I sale of land that has 1,000.000 feet or over of timber to the quarter section. The case was an appeal from an order of the board denying the application of J. H. Walker, of Oregon City. The point involved Is one of general Interest throughout Western Washington. The last Legislature passed what is known as the McCoy act, which provides that in cases where state land has 1,000,003 feet to the quarter section or over the timber shall be sold separate from the land. Tho object was to prevent the buy ing up of large tracts of timber by spec ulators to the detriment of the small mill men, and to accompliph that end the same law also required that where timber is sold without the sale of the land itself the timber must be removed within three years or revert to the state. The timber -speculators early. In the year, however, circumvented the intent of the law by applying for the sale of the land as well as the timber. They con tended that by selling the two separately the law would be compiled with. The Attorney-General 'advised the Land Ofllce that the proper interpretation of the law was that the land in such instances could not be Kold at all, but only the timber thereon disposed of. The cancellation pf the Walker applica tion, as above mentioned, followed and the appeal was taken. Mr. Walker owns the timber on a section of school land In "Wahkiakum County, and desired to pur chase the land, so that he might not be compelled to remove the timber within three years after its purchase. It is understood the case will be ap pealed to the Supreme Court. STIPULATIONS MADE PUBLIC. Cane of the Gilbert 'Bros.' Dnnlc Re celvcrxlilp Xot Yet Settled. SALEM. Or.. Sept. 27. (Special.)-The full details of the stipulation settling the issues in the Gilbert Bros. receivership suit were made public today. It appears from the document that the intervening creditors have abandoned their contention that William Cosper was partner with Gilbert Bros., and that the Cosper estate lias waived its claim for an accounting against Gilbert Bros., and that it has been agreed that the issues in the case shall not be tried, but that the suit shall be dismissed as soon as the aasets of the defunct bank have been distributed among the creditors. This agreement, not yet entirely completed, will free the Cosper estate from the claim interposed by the creditors of the Gilberts' bank, and will free the bank assets from the principal claim of the Ccsper heirs. , It was asserted by prominent attorneys yesterday that this disposition of the is sues in the suit may terminate the receiv ership, for it was uporf the allegations of the Cosper estate that the receiver was appointed. Tilmon Ford, executor of the 'Cosper es tate, says that the stipulation will have no such effect, for even If the Issues ibe disposed of the court will retain control of the bank assets for the benefit of the creditors. As the agreement eliminates considerable litigation, it may basten the settlement of the bank affairs, unless it leads to other suits. It i3 learned that the attorneys have been planning to bring the proceedings to test the effect 'of the stipulation. The taking of testimony regarding the reasonableness of the claim of Brown- & Wrightman for $5503 attorney's fees against the bank assets was concluded to day, and Judge Boise took the matter un der advisement. BONDS DECLARED FORFEITED. Cqnsnl-General Ho Yotv Must Pay for Chinese Students. SAN FRANCISCO. Sept 27. In "accord ance with a peremptory telegram received from National Commissioner of Immigra tion F. P. Sargent, Customs Collector Stratton has declared the bonds forfeited that were furnished by Ho Yow, Chinese Consul-General, for the release -of the Chicago students. Fel Chi How and Kung Hsiang Hsi. from the mail-dock detention shed, where they had been ordered con fined until their applications to land had been passed upon by the Chinese Bureau. The bonds are for ?500 each, and the United States District Attorney will' file a euit on Monday against Consul Ho Yw for their recovery. The students are be lieved to have gone to Toronto. Canada, and it was because they left the United States without permission that the bonds were declared forfeited. City Officials Liable to Indictment VANCOUVER. B. C, Sept. 27.

INCORPORATED INDIVIDUAL In This Instance He Is Franl Holme, Who Owns 151 of the SOO Shares. Now York Mail and Exnrpss. A number of rentlmpn of l!tmrv nnrt imaginative rather than distinctly com mercial tendencies have lately organized ft very pretty aoft of stock company, which has in it infinite suggestion. They have Joined together in incorporating a Man. Ho is an artist, chiefly employed in the field of illustration. He is out of health, and is ordered by his doctor to go to Arizona in the hope that the climate will restore his lungR. A number of his friends have expressed their confidence In his Integrity, and in the possibility of his recovery, by Joining in incorporating him as a y stock company to wit, as Frank Holme, incorporated. He Is represented by 300 chares, 151 of which he will himself own possessing, therefore, a controlling Interest in himself. His headquarters are to be In the Land of Sunshine. The suggestion contained In this trans action Is nothing less than the incorpora tion of everybody who can get himself Incorporated, or who Is deemed by his friends to be worth incorporating. Prob ably the majority of men would -succeed better on the incorporated backs than they would In any other way. It is business like and Inspiring. "Why should the ad vantages of incorporation be reserved for those who are engaged In commercial en terprises? 4 Why, for Instance, should not the doctor, the lawyer, the minister, and even the writer be Incorporated? Each 5s as much under the moral obligation of making a euccess of himself as the mer chant Is. The amount of stock which each man would be able to sell In the treat enterprise of his life would exactly represent the world's confidence in him. c.,i.iii-w-IilkIMi-i, In fctMtKti Om3H!tiw&' 7T K&i&yfM r -inr smtr u .f ArrtiW. lASc-u Vrr.r.u. ffH(.

If men are to be Incorporated, why not women? This, it may be remarked is an other story. It involves very prominently the (ucstlon of mergers which Is already ratner uncomfortable one. FROM NAPOLEON'S GRAVE Tree Trnnsplnnted From St. Helena Flourishes in Indiana. Indianapolis News. Located on the lawn of the George Sey- bold residence, in Logansport, Ind., stands a beautiful weeping willow, which for more than 0 years has swept the grassy carpet with its drooping tendrils. In the early 'EOs, Leroy Fitch, then a Lieutenant in. the United States Navy, was aboard a vessel that made port at the Island of St. Helena, and he visited the grave of the great Napolean. Fitch took a twig frbm a willow tree that stood on the grave, and by great care the little branch was kept alive until Fitch reached his home In LoganBport. It was planted in its present location and thrived from the start. The tree stood on ground belonging to Dr. A6a Coleman, and later the lot was purchased by Sey bold. The tree' stands near the sidewalk, and when Seybold constructed an Iron fence it was curved In order to protect the, tree. A hollow was left in the terrace so aB not to disturb its growth. The tree is very thrifty. It is-about 30 feet high, and many of the cord-like branches are 13 feet in length. SPECIAL RATES EAST. The Canadian Pacific will sell round-trip tickets, to Washington, D.

Every one knows that you have to learn how to ride a horse, and that the bicycle is not to be negotiated with ease by the entirely uninitiated. But few people, we imagine, were aware how cunning a okill Is required to ride with safety In tho ordi nary hansom. A Dally News reporter has interviewed Mr. Forder, the great cab maker, and elicited from him much valu able information. When you ride alone In a cab you should always alt In one of the corners, so that iq the event of the horse stumbling, you have the pillar on which the door is hung to prevent you from flying out of the vehicle; and simi larly, when thero are two people in a cab, they should both be ready to take ad vantage of this safeguard. Of coursd the interview was apropos of Mr. Chamber lain's accident, and the manufacturer ex pressed surprise that tho Colonial Secre tary did not know how to sit In a cab. Now the general public are enlightened on this art, we shall miss the formerly com mon sight of a solitiry rider balanced with a kind of nervous pride in the direct mid dle of the seat. Charged "With HlflrhTray Robbery. Cherley Lee was arrested last night by Detectives Ford and Cordano, charged with highway robbery in attacking Ah Joe and stealing $34 from him two months ago., on Second street.

A pe tition was filed In tho Governor's office today asking for the pardon of John H. Gates, who is serving a sentence in the penitentiary for forging the name of H. W. Corbett to & check at Eugene about a year ago. FINE LIVESTOCK SHOW. EASTERX JUDGES PRAISE EXHI BITS AT STATE' FAIR, Vhen Farmers Awaken to Profits, -Tliey-Say,-Qrcsron ""Will Lead the "World. Eastern livestock men of National rep utation, who have been In attendance upon the sessions of the State Fair at Salem tho past week, declare that Ore gon livestock is the equal in quality of any in the country. They suggest, how ever, that there should be more of the high-class stock, and recommend as a means of accomplishing this end that the beEt sires be obtained to place at the head of Oregon herds. The men who have paid the high compliment to Ore gon cattle, sheep and hogs are recognized as authorities on these subjects, and their opinions areworthy the careful attention of Oregon farmers who hesitate to en gage in the growing of stock or to im prove their herds. N. H. Gentry, a prominent cattle-breeder of Sedalla, Mo., visited the Oregon Stale Fair, where he judged the beef cat tle and swine. He is president of the Missouri State Fair Board, president of the American Berkshire Association, and a director in. the American Shorthorn As sociation. He is also a member of the Louisiana Purchaser Exposition Commis sion, and was president of the commis sion which had charge of Missouri's "ex hibit at the World's Fair at Chicago. In speaking last evening of his observations at the State Fair he said: "The quality of the livestock at the fair was first class, and I do not hesi DEATH OF AMBROSE BUNDSCHUH WELL-KXOWX GERMAN lis funeral.

His kind heart and generous spirit en deared him to the many friends that mourn bis loss. tato to say that I saw some cattfe as good as can be found anywhere in the East. There were al30 some splendid Berkshires as good as were exhibited at the International Livestock Exposition at Chicago last year, and the Berkshires -ere as good as any that were there. "I also saw some flno displays of sheep, and, Judging by the remarkably healthy condition of the sheep, I should say that this must be a good sheep country. The thrifty appearance of the wool and the j good gloss it bore particularly attracted my attention, xne excellent quality or the stock that came under my special Inspection seemed to be representative of tho character of all kinds of stock on exhibition at the fair. In point of qual ity Oregon breeders are up with the East ern breeders, but the quantity of the high-class stock is far too limited here in this state. "My time did not permit me to examine the agricultural exhibits very closely, but I notice that you raise splendid wheat. probably superior to that raised anywhere In 'the East. I am surprised that the farmers, sell so much of it at the low prices instead of feeding it to stock. Wheat and oats mixed and ground into chop make the best kind of feed. I am told that buyers do not encourage farmers to fatten their cattle' on grain, but I te Ueve that If the farmers adopt this meth cd of feeding they will find that packers will pay a better price for the beef, and that the feeding will pay. Packing-houses are being established all over the West and you will soon have one here. "In the uniformity of this climate and the luxuriant growth of grasses the Ore gon farmers have a great advantage over those of tho Eastern States, where there are cold Winters and hot Summers. The Oregon farmer can fatten his cattle on much less grain than can the Eastern farmer, because of the more favorable climate and better grass production. "I bavubeen impressed with the depth and richness of your soil, but understand that In the older portions of the state the soil refuses to produce the enormous crops it did a few years ago. The Ore gon farmer must learn, as we have in Missouri, that land will not stand tho continual production of one crop. Farm ers should not wait until their land is worn out before they abandon the old methods, but by rotating their crops and pasturing they should keep the soil rich. The great grain-producing states are be coming stock-producing states, and I pre diet that Oregon will become one of the best livestock .states In the country." Professor W. 1 Carlyle, of the chair of animal husbandry at the University of (Wisconsin, was judge of dairy cattle, draft horses and sheep at the Oregon State Fair In speaking of the livestock exhib its he said: "So far as tho representation at the fair riONEER PARSES AWAY. Ambrose Bundschuh, who died at, his home, 01 North Park street, Friday afternoon, was one of the oldest of the German pioneers. He was bom in Baden. South Germany, December 25. 1S30.

The lodse conducted his shows the quality of Oregon livestock, this state has as excellent cattle and nhecp as can be found anywhere in the United States.- The Jerseys In particular cannot be excelled, but I think It will be agreed that there should be greater numbers of these splendid dairy cattle. I saw a few that were not In as good condition as they should be. The Hclstelns were. not largely represented, but what there were were ex ceedingly fine. The Ayrshlrea are a breed that I think very highly of. and I saw some very good animals -at the fair, but none up to the standard of Eastern, breed ers. There was a fine herd 'of brown Swiss cattle, which I judge should do well in the mountainous section of Oregon. Being natives of Switzerland, they are a strong, rugged type, and do well under conditions where, tho more refined herds would not Seasonable Talk The storm of the last few days has brought into prominence the question of suitable outer garments for the rainy sea son.

The-red polled cat tle are growing to be popular In the Mid dle "West, and very justly so. They are low, blocky cattle, of uniform, size, and showing good milking qualities. The' steers are in great favor for beef pur poses when w.ell grown. The animals shown at the fair were In a poor condi tion, and did not represent the same breeds as they are found In the East. "The sheep exhibit was a complete sur prise to me in Its high quality. I think that at none of the Eastern state fairs will as good an exhibit of , Co tswold, sheep be found. The growth of wool was par ticularly fine, and demonstrated thatT'this country, in so far as wool production is concerned, cannot be excelled In the Unit ed States. Not a single poor sheep was shown, though there were four large "ex hibits. The Shropshire breed was well represented, but the animals were not of such uniformly high- character as the Cotswolds. The development of the Iambs In this class was noteworthy, as it was in all others. This seems to Indicate that Oregon should prove a very formidable rival of England In the future, and I can see no reason why Eastern breeders should not get their exhibit stock from the Pacific Coast instead of going to England for it. "With the long, hard "Winters which wo have to contend with in the Middle West, it is very "difficult to grow lambs and young sheep to the greatest perfec tion In the first year, and for this reason exhibitors Import tl)elr, show stock from England. So soon as Oregon breeders take hold of the matter as they should, I believe they can challenge the world in the production of high-class sheep.. "I do not know of a better flock of Dor set sheep on the continent than the flock of Mr. Scott, of Menomone, and I think the best Shropshire lamb I have seen in years was exhibited by Mr. C. E. Ladd. I am taking some samples of wool from this flock to Wisconsin University for exhibition purposes In the classroom, as I have never found Its equal In length of staple and strength of fiber. "In company with Colonel Judson we spent the day in the Willamette Valley, viewing representative farm scenes. I am delighted with tho conditions I have found, and especially with the many ad Vantages for the successful growing of livestock. All this state needs to make It the greatest livestock section of the Unjted States is an awakening of the fanners of the wonderful natural advant ages they possess, and to the necessity for a constant aupply of good food for stock throughout the whole year. "There Is evidence on every hand that the farmers are very lax in their metnods of breeding, and especially that they ne glect to piocure the very best of sires to head their flocks and herds. The best Is none too good for Oregon." ' Messrs. Gentry and Cariyle were guests of Colonel R. C. Judson. industrial agent of "the O. R. & TJ".. while in. this city.

Some recent scientific Investigations on the subject in Germany have not added very much to our knowledge as to the causes df the disease or the most effect ual remedy. A great many different theo ries are advanced by patients as to the origin in their own cases. One lady de clared that she caught hay fever when ever she happened to think of It, another said an attack would be brought on by thinking of a cornfield. A third patient asserted that it would be produced ir cats came into the room; one has heard before today of the sight of a cat bring ing on a fainting fit, and some hyper sensitive persons have attributed a swoon to -the smell of a rose. The rather gen erally received 'opinion that the pollen of flowers Is the cause of hay fever is not confirmed by Dr. Thosfs experiments. The doctor is, unfortunatcy, unable to propound an effectual cure. There is a prophylactic, Indeed, but some people would thmk the remedy as bad as the disease. It Is to live in a place where there is no vegetation. On that account the Island of Heligoland is much resorted by German sufferers. There are spots on our own coasts where tho condition is Brewer Hat completes the outfit. Best three dollar hat in the world. Port land's best people are wearing them.

LIMITS OF GOVERNMENT. Envy Will Xot Secure a Better Dis tribution (of Wealth. New York Journal of Commerce. No political truth more needs to be Im pressed upon the minds of men than that -which the President put tersely and vig orously in his Providence speech when he said: "It is difficult to make our mate rial condition better by the best laws, but it Is easy enough by bad laws to throw the whole Nation into an abyss of misery." It is Impossible for the Government to make every man prosperous. Efforts in that direction rarely get farther than to make some men prosperous at the ex pense of others. The causes 9f National prosperity are rarely to be found in good laws; the causes of National adversity arc not always to be found In bad laws; though, as the President says, the power of bad laws for evil is far greater than the power of good laws for good. The first appeal of every unreflecting person in a moment of dissatisfaction, whether the cause be a train behind time or a financial panic, is to the Govern ment; the police ought to do something abo'ut It, or there ought to be a law against It, Is his prompt declaration. Yet National prosperity 13 the prosperity of individuals, and that is only achieved by the Individuals themselves, and it will always be achieved by them if they have a fair chance. The purpose of law is not to make every man prosperous, but to give every man a chance to make him self prosperous. It is absolutely true, as so well expressed by the President, that "when the conditions have been created which make prosperity possible, then each individual man must achieve It for himself by his own thrift. Intelligence, energy, Industry and resolute purpose." The United States has prospered beyond other nations because here the individual has the freest opportunity to do tho beat he can for himself. The triumph of the United States Is the triumph of Individ ualism in business and in politics. This fact should make us extremely careful how we abridge that individual ism. Doubtless there must be law to re strain the individual from advancing his own Interests by preying upon the com munity The law restrains a man from using superior physical force in advanc ing himself at the expense of others. In his annual message to Congress the Pres ident said that superior cunning should be subject to as much restraint as supe rior prowess. But as the secret of our prosperity, not alone In accumulating wealth, but in developing manhood, lies in Individualism, every restraint of it must prove Its neccsnity by the clearest evidence that Individualism Is inficting actual Injury. No man denies that the corporation is an artificial person, the creature of the state and subject to regulation by the state. The ordinary corporation has been succeeded by whnt is commonly called the trust. The law does not change so fast as commercial conditions and forces, and it Is certain that the law needs to be brought down to date. But while we are considering whnt changes should be made to adapt corporation laws to modern con ditions, we must keep distinctly in mind that our National success has been due not to law. Considerable of the demand for legislation In restraint of trusts comes from two eourcea equally hostile to the conditions under which we have surpassed all our competitors. One of these is more or less disguised socialism; the exact opposite of the Individualism to which we owe cur greatness. The other is plain, -unvarnished envy -vfhlch attempts .to hamper the exceptionally able. Nothing Is more fatal to a people than to prevent the development of men of extraordinary talents. There was never a time when the prca- perity of the common people was so great as it Is now. The financiers and admlnlo trators who have made such fortunes as wero never seen before have rarely ac 90 oe e ' 6 -e eo e e c a a 99 oe o e oe e ee eo ee ee' ee eo ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee eo ee ee eo ee eo ee eo ee ee eo ee 'ee ee ee ee ee e e ee ee c.e ee ee ee ee ee eo ee ee e 96 ee ee ee ee ee eo t e ee ee CO eo &o ?e eo e ee eeoee eoooe complished this at the expense of the rest of the community; if they had not made their fortunes no one else would hae been a dollar richer; thousands would not have been nearly so weH off. But envy prompts the demand that the men of genius and daring should not be permitted to reap the full results of their talents. There Is a profound truth In the state ment of the President in regard to the evils that have thus far resulted from combinations of capital that "probably the most serious harm resulting to us, the people of moderate means. Is when we harm ourselves by letting the dark and evil vices of envy and hatred toward our fellows eat Into our natures." Envy will never secure a better distribution of wealth. Fried Green Bananas.

Medical books are not always Interest ing reading, especially to people enjoy ing good health, but. as a matter of fact, scarcely one person In 10 is perfectly healthy, and even with such, sooner or later, sickness must come. It is also a well-established truth that nine-tenths of all diseases originate with a breaking down of the digestion; a weak stomach weakens and impoverishes the system, making it easy for disease to gain a foothold. Nobody need fear consumption, kidney dlseasa, liver trouble or a weak heart and nervous system as long as the digestion is good and the stomach able to assimi late plenty of wholesome food. Stomach weakness shows Itself in a score of ways, and this little book de scribee the symptoms and causes and points the way to a cure so simple that any one can understand and apply. Thousands have some form of stomach trouble and do not know it. They ascribe the headaches, the languor, nervousness. Insomnia, palpitation, constipation and similar symptoms to some other cause than the true'one. Get your digestion on the right track and tho heart trouble, lung trouble, liver disease or nervous de- billty will rapidly disappear. This little book treats entirely on the cause and removal of Indigestion and Its accompanying annoyances. It describes the symptoms of acid dys pepsia, nervous dyspepsia, slow dyspep sia, amylaceous dyspepsia, catarrh of stomach and all affections of the diges tive organs in plain language easily un derstood and the cause removed. It gives valuable suggestions as to diet, and contains a table giving length of time required to digest various articles of food, something every person with weak digestion should know. No price Is asked, but simply send your name and address, plainly written on postal card, to the F. A. Stuart Co..
