and has tried to run them down, but
no candldato or prominent Repub
lican has yet been found who is not
ready to go on record as entirely op
posed to any endorsements by the
convention.
OREGON POULTRY.
Fruit, dairying and other indust
ries of Oregon have all been given
their share of publicity, but poultry
raising is rarely mentioned outs'de
of tho publications which are either
devoted to poultry or have a special
department for it. ?5, 000, 000 an
nually is a very conservative esti
mate of tho returns from this indus
try to Oregon farmers, and yet thous
ands of cases of eggs are shipped in
every year from the middle west to
supply tho demand here. Here
poultry raisers say that the climate
of Western Oregon In particular Is
conducive to very rapid and health
ful growth there Is one community
alone in Southern Oregon that an
nually markets between $40,000
and $50,000 worth of turkeys. Coos
County offers exceptional oppor
tunities in the poultry line.
COUNTY CANDIDATES NOT TO BE
RECOMMENDED.
Tho trend of public opinion on tho
subject of party conventions in the
state of Oregon is plainly in favor of
holding such conventions solely for
tho purposo of placing tho party
right in tho matter of Its platform
of principles and taking such action
as will hold tho party together mid
provide for its Internal administra
tion. All tho county comonttons ot
tho Ropubllcnn party have thus lnr
refused to so far vlolato tho spirit
of tho primary law as to attompt tho
endorsement or recommendation of
candidates. This letusnl shows that
tho people attending these conven
tions hnvo a pioper appreciation of
tho sontiniont of tho people. Ore-
gonlans will not tolerate any uhnngo
in their legislative method of select
ing candidates for olllco thioiigh pii
mury olectlons nt piesent. It is safe
t.o say that if any number of dele
gates at a convention should proceed
to express a preference for a candl
dato for any olllco, and heek to as
scrlbo such preference to the Repub
lican paity, tho candidate endorsed
would bo overwhelmingly doleated
at tho primaries. The people have
chosen not to dolegato tho powor to
select candidates to a convention,
but to select tliom formally at the
primaries.
Thoro Is a convention to bo hold
by tho Republicans of this county
Mnreh 24, but it Is being called for
tho purposo of declaring principles,
and not to advance the lntorests of
any candidate or candidates.
Tho committee has been criticised
in cortaln quarters for calling It at
all, but their Justification Is sulll
clout and plain when they conllno Its
purposo to tho single ouo of making
resolutions and platforms nnd pro
viding for a campaign. Whoovor
shall bo a candldato at tho primaries
for any olllco as a Ropubllcnn must
doom himself pledged to stand on
tho Republican platlorm which tho
convention shall provide There Is
no other way In which tho integrity
of tho party can be proberved. if,
as some hnvo asserted, a faction is
anxious to bocuro ondorsomont for
its candldnto, it Is not concelvablo
that any faction can entertain so
foolish a political plan. The peoplo
would regard such endorsement us
a pleco of insolence which thoy would
nuor oxcuso. It would perhaps dis
rupt tho party, but It most cortaluly
would result In tho overwhelming
dofeat of those who wore bo unfor
tunato as to receive such lmportlnont
ondorsomont or recommendation.
Tho Tlmoa has hoard thoso rumors
SALT FOR LIVE STOCK.
Tho requirement that all cattle,
horses and sheep grazing under per
mit on the National Forests be given
salt at frequent intervals is a re
gulation which has been found to
go a long way in protecting the
range and conserving the forage
ciop.
Experience has shown that the
want of salt makes stock restless. If
cattle and horses are not supplied as
they need It, they roam and wander,
haunting old salting grounds used
In previous seasons, trampling the
forage plants Instead of eating them,
pawing the ground, and in other
ways injuring the range. But if
their cravings are supplied they
scatter peacefully over the pasture
grounds and feed at their leisure.
Salt is so necessary to tho easy
and profitable handling of sheep on
tho range, that no flockmaster would
think of getting along without it.
Ii sheep do not recelvo their usual
supply it is only with great difllculty
that they can bo held in bonds or
kept In camp at night. So tar as
sheep aro concerned, no regulation
by law Is really necessary, because
the owners, tor their own conven
ience, will salt their flocks. But
cattle are not herded, and tho owners
might neglect to salt them, If the
ic-gulatlons wero not strictly en
forced. Stock on different ranges require
varying quantities of salt. Sheep
need less on dry raugo than on
green. An average quantity for 1,
000 head of sheep would bo from
1000 to 1500 pounds each year. For
a like number of cattle, from 5000
to 10000 pounds a year Is required.
Hoises need less than cattle.
Old hunters, in tho days of the
pioneers, know that deer and buffa
lo traveled long distances to lick
salt in sallno springs. Tho Blue Licks
on Licking River, In Kentucky, and
a blniflar mineral spring on Elk
River, In West Virginia, wore famous
foi tho herds of deer, buffalo and
elk which frequented them. Tho
adjacent giotind was so deeply
tramped that tho marks wero to be
seen many years alter tho places
ceased to bo visited by thos,o anl-nmls.

GOOD EVENING.
Some Thoughts on Love.
It Is difficult to know at what mo
ment love begins. It Is less difficult to
know It has begun. A thousand her
alds proclaim it to tho listening air; a
thousand messengers betray it to tho
eye. Tone, act, attitude and look, tho
signals upon tho countenance, the elec
tric telegrnph of touch all these bo
tray the yielding citadel before tho
word itself Is uttered which, like tho
key surrendered, opens every avenue
nnd gato of entrance and renders re
treat impossible. Longfellow.
To write a good love letter you ought
to begin without knowing what you
mean to say and to finish without
knowing what you have written.
Rousseau.
The first symptom of truo lovo In a
young man Is timidity; in a girl it is
boldness. The two sexes have a tend
ency to approach, nnd each assumes
the qualities of the other. Ilugo.

"Here," said the Closo Observer,
as he handed The Times man a clip
ping, "just ask Walter McFarland
how ho would like to handlo deposit
slips like that:
"A deposit slip that startled the
bank officers was recently handed
into the bank at Norwood, O. Tho
slip, by actual measurement, was
sixty-two feet long) and contained
record of hundreds of checks and
Items of deposit. Tho deposit was
made by ono of the largo factories In
Norwood, and in order to make the
deposit in bulk additional pieces of
paper were pasted to tho deposit slip
to make it one piece. Most of the
checks and items wero for small
amounts, tho total deposit repre
sented by the list being $00,162.97.
When tho deposit slip was presented
Cashier McEvilley almost threw a fit,
and when ho took tho second glance
at it realized tho tremendous amount
of clerical work necessary to record
tho deposit on tho books. This ad
ditional work accounted for the
clerks remaining In tho bank until
late that night.
C. H. M. Atkins, president of tho
bank, states that tho slip is the long
est deposit slip ever presented at a
local bank. Its length was measured
for curiosity, and found to bo exactly
sixty-two feet.

A good degreo of interest is being
moused in Myrtlo Point and vicin
ity over tho plan of securing a plot
of ground on tho lint east of tho
city and creating an amusement
park. With such a park, contain
ing a half-mile rneo track, a base

and a plneo whero agricultural and
slock exhibits may bo dlsplayod,
besides having a place for Fourth
of July celebrations, reunions, pic
nics, log rollings, foot ball, track
meets, etc, Mjrtlo Point could be
assured of having something to at
tract tho peoplo sovcrai times a
