It has been announced that the
sum of$ 10,000 allotted by the trustees
of the Carnegie Institute to Luther
Hurbank, the California agriculturists
will be paid to him in annual install
ments of $10,000. This sum will en

bles and it is expected that he will
relinquish temporarily his business interests.
Manv important discoveries have
been made by the Californian at his
home it Santa Rosa during the past
twenty-five years. He has worked
along the line of seeking imperfect
products in fruits, flowers, etc., in or
der to make them of full value. He
claims there is "no weed which will
not sooner or later respond liberally
to good cultivation and persistent
selections." Recently Rurbank dis
covered a fadeless flower.

MONDAY. MARCH 13, 1905.
MAY NOT CONVICT CONGRESSMEN.
It begins to look like the govern
ment is not over-confident in its abili
ty to convict many of those persons
indicted in the land fraud cases. A
dispatch in Sunday's papers evidently
eminating from Heney is to the effect
that while there is a strong case
against Senator Mitchell, there is no
little anxiety on the part of the gov
ernment in regard to its ability to
convict Congressman Hermann. The
government's counsel says "great dif
ficulty has been experienced in get
ting hold of evidence that will carry
conviction to a jury. The evidence
so far accumulated tends to show
that Hermann was in hearty sympathy
with many propositions advanced by
Senator Mitchell, and that he repeat
edly acted in accordance with Mitch
ell's request, often when the law hard
ly justified, but no proof has yet been
produced to show that Hermann re
ceived money from Mitchell or from
any other person for becoming a par
ty to Mitchell's schemes, and lack of
this very evidence is the weak spot in
the Government's case."
It is further stated that "the Gov
ernment has an inkling of the defense
which Congressman Williamson will
make, and is somewhat concerned. It
is feared that he and his partner may
be able to show that whatever money
was loaned to settlers was loaned by
Gesner, andtthat Williamson had no
knowledge 6T it. It is further feared
that it may be shown that title to the
lands in question does not now rest
with Williamson or his partner. In
this event this case will collapse.
"The indictment of Mitchell, Her
mann and Williamson for conspiracy
in connection with the proposed Blue
Mountain forest reserve is not regard
ed as a strong one. Much is yet need
ed in the way of evidence to strength
en the Government's contention."
Mr. Heney stated that no attempt
would be made to involve Senator
Fulton in the land fraud cases. It is
understood that several Federal offi
cials in Oregon and men prominent in
business circles and in politics will be
included in the new list of indictments.
Quite a number of miners and pros
pectors have gone into the Bohemia
mines owing to the extremely mild
weather. This has been a very open
season in Bohemia, and there is very
little snow at present. It is evident,
if the mild weather continues any
length of time, there will not be
enough water to run the various
mills. For this reason the Oregon Se
curities Company is contemplating a
steam plant at an early date. The
Vesuvius has a steam plant so that
the work will not be handicapped at
this property.
"The Power of Music," a beautiful
poem written by Aldon Harness, a
well known young man of Roseburg,
is being published in many of the
state papers, it having appeared in
the daily Portland Telegram and daily
Eugene Register early last week. It
is an Oregon poem which promises to
take a place alongside of Sam Simp
son's famous "Beautiful Willamette."
Mr. Harness has just issued a little
booklet containing this and many oth
er original poems, which he is selling
readily at 15 cents a copy.
Utah will upend fSO.OOO in exhibiting
litr resources and industries at the fair.
Hie tire department at the fair is now
practicing daily, ami making texts of
water pressure. The department has a
fully equipped Btation and is able to
cope with anv blaze.
Hundreds of carloads of exhibits for
the fair have already arrived and more
come every day. The ears are brought
into the grounds by way of a spur and
are unloaded, the contents being stored
in the finished exhibits palaces.
The electrical display at the fair will
be one of the most unique and attrac
tive ever planned for a like enterprise.
No expenses has been spared to make
this feature most attractive.
Ornate staff work now in process on
the Bridge of Nations at the fair, will
give the structure the appearance of an
arched bridge of the most lieautiful de
sign. The bridge is over 2,000 feet long
connecting the mainland to the Govern.
ment Pen insula.
Several hundred Burlington people
are planning to visit the fair in July, in
order to be present at the sessions of
the American Librmrion's annual meet
ing, which will be held in Portland
from July 2 to 7.
The Union Pacific railroad is soon to
issue an attractive folder regarding the
fair, which will be distributed widely
throughout the east and middle west.
Several other roads have issued, or will
issue similar pamphlets.
MRS. GOEHNER
COMMITS SUICIDE
By Shooting Herself with
a 38-Caliber Pistol.
SICK AND DESPONDENT
The Corvallis Gazette tells of Rube
Kiger. who used to operate an ice
house at that place in the early
bus and who says that eacn year
there is a marked change in the
climate, and that the winters are
growing milder. They must be, for
a man would starve to death in West
ern Oregon now if he depended for a
living upon putting up natural ice.
B0WDEN THE FLORIDA FLYER.
The present hero of the auto
world, on account of his remarkable
performance at the recent Interna
tional Races at Ormond is Mr. H. L.
Bowden. To him belongs the honor
of having gone the fastest known
mile ever traveled, in 32 4-5 seconds,
or a rate of 110 miles an hour. Mr.
Bowden in making this record took a
flying start of three miles. By the
time he crossed the automatic start
ing tape his speed was like that of a
projectile thrown from a heavy gun.
His great white machine fairly leaped
into space, annihilating distance and
going faster than the wind. So fast
did the ponderous machine move that
u was impossible to recognize it or
the brown clad figure seated at the
wheel with eyes pieicing the distance
and steering good and true. Never
once did the great machine swerve
from the track, but steadily it moved
and in a twinkling the report of
pistol shot announced the completion
of the mile trial and the six watches
showed that but 32 4-5 seconds had
elapsed between the start and the
finish of this, the greatest feat in the
annals of automobiling.

Boys Should Not Be Sold Pistols

fly-
1 do really think that pistols should
not be sold to boys for it is putting
temptation into their hands. For in-
'ance if a pistol had not been sold to
Adolph Weber do you think he could
bavecommitted the terriblecrimes which
he did? No Indeed. I think you will
agree with me dear readers that it
would not have been such an easy task
for him, that is if he is guilty.)
I do think it wrong and that there
should be a law against selling pistols
to voting I ovs. I have seen voting hovs
go around with pistol stuck in their
hip pocket. I suppose that thev think
it make? a man of them, but if they
only knew how foolish it looks to flour
ish them they would not do it.
To see them sho t at a bird or at a
mark or something socarlessly makes me
shudder. Some hoys have terrible tem
pers and if they had that deadly weapon
in reach, and then would get angry at
one of their playmates or anybody, it
would be quite tempting for them to
use it, when if they did not have the
pistol in a few minutes their passion
would be over, and they would be free
from the guilt which would stamp their
lives forever.
I Oiink there is many a crime cotnit
ted in a fit of passion.
I think this world would have abeen
better off if.a pistol had never been in
vented. A Mother.
There is a state law prohibiting the

It is reported that Coos Bay farm
ers are out in their orchards with
long poles, knocking off the apples
left over from last year, to give the
buds on the trees a chance to come
out. This is not getting ahead of the
Umpqua valley farmers. They have
to do the same thing over at Yoncalla,
some of the apples still being good
eating.
Speaking of inside tips, they are
telling a story of a little boy and the
Christian Scientist. The boy was
complaining of an ache in his stom
ach, when the Christian Scientist told
him he wasn't ill at all that he just
imagined he was. "But I know bet

Let Albany be the horse center

Two empty whiskey barrels in Cor

attention, and it is said several men
secured satisfaction in smelling at the
bang holes.
When a grumbling citizen asked the
editor why in the world he didn't tell
the truth in his paper if only for one
week, the editor excused himself by say
ing: "Because, if we did the next
grand jury would indict you on at leaqt
six different counts."
A knight of the grip, struck Prairie
City about breakfast time and with
much gusto and self importance seated
himself to his hash and coffee, says the
Miner. All went we'l until prodding
round the dish of mystery, when with
his fork he revealed the torn and tat
tered piece of a shirt. With feeling
crushed and indigestion on the quiver
he formally filed a protest, with a courte
ous waiter, who informed him that his
complaint was not well taken, and if he
expected to get a good new shirt- with
a two-bit dish of hash he had struck the
wrong camp.
.Mrs. Kate toeliner, wne oi iieorge
Goehner a farmer of Oak Creek, was
found dead in her room at the residence
of Carl Hoffman on Mill street, early
Saturday morning, by Mrs. Hoffman
who entered the room to call her to
breakfast. I he unfortunate woman
was laying face downward on the floor
with a bullet hole through her left
breast between the breast bone and the
lower portion of the heart. The pistol
with which the wound was indicted is a
huge, old-fashioned Mexican gun of 38
calibre, the property of Mr. Hoffman,
and which he always kept on the bu
reau in his room.
It was evident that the wound was
self-inriicied as Mrs. Goehner left three
letters addressed respectively to Dr.
Miller, Mr. Hoffman and her husband,
thanking all for their kindness to her
and stating that her illness was more
than she could stand and asked forgive
ness for her last act. Her letter to Dr.
Miller was as follows :
Roseburg, Oregon, March 11, '06.
Dr. Miller, Hear Sir : Thanking you
for your great kindness and the patience
that you have had with me, a poor suf
ferer. I think my troubles harder than
I am able to bear them any longer, and
blame nobody but myself for it all, as
I think I have been waiting too long le-
fore giving myself into your good help
ing hands.
Hoping that everything will be settled
all right, ami also hope to be forgiven
for my last act
Yours very trulv,
MKS. KATE GOSH NEE.
On the back of this Utter was copied
these lines of poetry :
"Long maveat thou dwell among the
sons of men ;
Pleasant be thy goings to and fro;
Eternal be thine influence for the truth
and right.
The highest and the best on earth
And w hen thou comest to the'.end of life,
And bid'st farewell to earthly friends,
May peace attend thy parting hoar
As angels gather round thv bed to bear
Thy spirit safely lo its home above."
"There's so much bad in the beet of us
And so much good in the worst of us,
It hardly behooves any of us
To speak ill of the rest of us."
Your unhappy patient,
MRS. KATE I GOEHRNBR.

It is the opinion of Dr. Hoover that

Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman were absent
from their home attending the session
of the Rebekab lodge. They relumed
