THE SOLDIERS HOME REPORT.
A good deal of interest has been mani
fested in the report of the Joint com
mittee on the soldiers home, particularly
as one of the members of the . board of
directors was an Albany man. The re
port in full covers tour columns, too
much for the Democrat to give in full
The following are selections from the re
port which the Democrat gives that its
readers may set the mam facts in a mat
ter that is proving very interesting. The
report was written by Ool. B. F. Alley, a
former resident of this city and brother-
in-law of Mr. t . J. Miller, ot Albany
The report of the board of trustees
covering a period ot eighteen months
from May, 1893, to October, 1894, shows
that there were held during that time
eight meetings of the executive commit
tee ot trie Doam consisting 01 tnree
members, and twenty-two meetings of
the full board, or thirty meetings in all.
We are constrained then to say that it
sliows, if nothing . worse, a lamentable
want of business capacity on the part of
il. I J r . x . . .
uia uoaru ui trustees, 1 our committee
further finds that the sum of five dollars
a day was charged by the members of
the board of trustees for each day's at
tendance on the meetings of the board
n direct violation of section 13 of the
act of 1893, . which reads as follows :
"Said trustees shall not receive any com
pensation for their services, but they
shall be entitled to their actual expense
incurred while attending to the transac
tion of any business by and under the
direction of said board of trustees.
Your committee find that the follow
ing amounts have been received bv dif
ferent members of the board of trustees
for attendance on its meeting: J. W,
million C'Hm ffKavlAO C1RTI. 4! O
Train $195; James Byron $210; A. J.
Bellows $30. We desire it to be under
stood that these charges are in excess of
me regular car tare ana i unman car
tare and otner expenses, inese amounts
being as follows : Charles lckell. $206 :
S. S. Train, $163; James Byron, $51 ; the
latter living twelve miles m the country.
and Messrs. Mullen and Bellows living
in Rose burst. The total amount of thexe
charges being $1,315, o which sum $S95
was paid themselves Dy the board of
trustees in direct violation of law. Your
committee find that Trustee Bellows,
after attending six meetings of the board
and charging per diem for the same, but
coming to the conclusion tnat this charge
was contrary to the spirit and intention
of the law, he thereafter discontinued it.
lie also claims to have returned to the
state, the full amount thus . wrongfully
taken. It will be noticed that the per
diem of S. S. Train as above given, . was
$195. Ue also claims to have made good
to the state the sum of $50, the above
amount being his salary for one quarter,
as secretary of the board of trustees,
which he did not draw. Your committee
notes these facts in justice to Messrs
Bellows and Train.
But your committee cannot fail to note
that, allowing the return to the state of
$50 by Mr. Train, there yet remains the
sum of $150 salary as secretary of the
Doard ot trustees tor three-iourths ot the
year, while it was in evidence before
your committee, that Mr. Train did not
perioral the labor, but that it was per
formed bv the Commandant and Ad
jutant of the home.
These men were not appointed for
their fitness for the position, the prime
object in their appointment being to
locate the home, their qualifications and
fitness being considered of secondary
importance by the power that appointed
them.
Beginning a career of dishonesty with
the other members of the board Mr.
Bellows early saw the injustice of his
course and he did what he could to make
amends "for his wrongdoing. He has
assisted us very materially in obtaining
evidence and information, and has made
a clean breast as far as we are able to
determine of the whole matter.

The Time to Spbay. This is the sea
son of the year for spraying trees. What
is best to do it with. Hani Clark, tf

who is the most advanced Jiorticulturist
in this vicinity, ami grows tho best of
fruit of all sorts without env help from
the state of Oregon, succeeds in making
liiue. sulnhur and salt destroy the mns
oh his apple trees, the fungi on all his
fruit trees, also the various insects that
hav annoyed him in the past, are de
stroyed by the use of this simple rcmpjyaj-!
The ingredients of this spray are: UnA
slacked lime. 30 pounds: powdered mi!.
nhur 20 iounds and ordinary stork milt
45 pound; to lie used with 60 gallons of
water. The way they prepare it is to
place 10 pounds of lime ami 20 pounds of
powdered suipiiur in art iron kettle, with
20 gallons ot water, ana uou m a lively
way for at least two hours, or until the
sulphur is diwolved. Then put the other
20 ponrids of lime in a barrrel, or large
iud mat win ihwi an, ami water enougu
to Black all the lime, then, when dis
solved, add the salt, and water enough
to make the 60 gallons. The prescription
maker says it must be applied luke warm,
but that is not so easily done, , If you
have a sled to haul it about the orchard
on, and work ratner uveiy, you may be
able to get it on before it gets really cold,
but in a wintry sort of a day, such as we
have when the trees are dormant, the
solution won't reach the tree in a very
warm state after beuig reduced to a spray
and passing through the chill air. It
might bo possible to make this more
deadly by adding bluestonc to it, but

Editor Democrat:
Whether Judge Penny Bill on the
cigarette question become law or not,
each chartered citv would have to make
its own legislation on the supiect. it can
do that any how, if it feels rightly on the
subject.
In w York City, the Supt. of Public
Instruction lias his heart in the right
f lan towards the youth within his reach,
n all the ninety-five grammar schools of
the city the Anti-Cigarette League has
been lately organised and already the
membervhip has mounted to 40.000.
In this city erveral cigarette fiends.
who already realise too tadiy the fell
work of the cigarette, were anxious to
riga the petition to the legislature. They
enow notning protmbiy about tbe scien
tific working of the drug, but they do
know that it has made them feel badly.
and to grow into a strong manhood they
must quit.
Dr.F.'M, Lacgdoo, of Omaha, tavs
"Ciganrttea contain as the priitcipsd poi
sons, Bicotiste, arsenic, and opium ; all
of which are classed among the poisons,
w hich are nerve depressants, and any
thing which inhibits or hinders proper
action of the nerve centers, must inter
fere with the normal action of everv
function of the body. We therefore find
poor circula.'. ion ,im perfect digestion, and
tne ineviiaote result upon tne brain, poor
memory, sndjsick of powerof concentra
tion." .
lie continues "The bovs are to a great
extent ignorant of tbew terrible results
until too late. - They think the cigarette
frooking manly. Why should we allow
a few urea to manufacture and tell this
useless and poisonous thing simply for
tne manay to t made, wnen we do not
hesitate- to seiie valuable stock from, our
herds l cattle for the bare uoeeibility of
danger trom dieea.7
Br all means let us throw every pro
