Each county in the state will be com pelled to purchase election booths against the coming June election, in or der to comply with the requirements of the Australian ballot law. As a result the several counties of the state have been bombarded for months by canvas sers from eastern houses offering to furnish steel and canvass booths at three times what they are worth, never speak of the freight. Wasco county will require between fifty and, sixty booths and these eastern made affairs will cost something between eight and ten dollars each, laid down here; and by the time they are distributed over the county by the sheriff or his deputy at the usual fees and mileage the county will be out six or Seven hundred dollars for booths that might just as well be nrade at home for half or lees than half the money. There -is no reason in the world that we know of why a wooden booth that ought to be built for less than two dollars a piece would not serve every purpose, and these could be built hero and the money kept at home. There is no reason why wooden booths would not serve every purpose for years to come and maybe by that time some new election law would relegate them to the courthouse-woodpile. The charter of Baker city provides that, "The office of mayor or treasurer shall bo deemed vacant whenever the incumbent therof shall be absent from the city for the period of fifteen days. The newly elected mayor, C. A. Johns having been absent from the 17th until the 23d of the present month sixteen days a question is raised as to the authority of Mr. John's official acts. It is claimed that the words "deemed vacant" mean that the law itself, with out any subsequent act on the part of the council, declares the office, vacant when the mayor's absence exceeds the limitation fixed by the charter. - vUere is the Like in America?

She told what she meant by say ing there was no poverty in America. "We take into our Children's Home," she said, "girls twelve years old who have never' known what it is to sleep in a bed. They have slept in barrels, be hind doors, or on floors, until a bed is so strange to them as to be uncomfortable. I remember a little girl eight years old who was brought to the home. The firat night we had to pick her up from the floor six times and put her back into bed. She could not sleep on a mattress and between covers, and kept crawling out to get on the floor. Over 1000 of these children have been rescued from the slums, brought up and sent on to Canada or the states to become good citizens." .

The first evening session found about two hundred persons 'present, t It was opened by a song from the choir after which Hon. H.v H. Dufur read a very admirable and able paper on "Our agricultural interests as connected with political economy." Mr. Dufur claimed that the "United States owes her great ness to agriculture ; yet while the farmer has toiled to increase his own and the nation's wealth speculators have eaten up his substance. The.farmer has grown. lean while the nation has grown fat. The agriculturists are the most conser-. vative of all classes yet : they are, more than any others, dissatisfied with the present condition of affairs. The fault ip largely their own and is due mainly to personal reckless expenditure. The farmer has not accomodated himself to surrounding circumstances and altered conditions. The farm must be conducted so that the balance of trade will be in its favor. The leaks on the farm must stop. Brains must be nsed as well as muscle. Farmers to be prosperous must get down to a cash basis. We need re form on the farm as well as in the state or nation. Agriculture should be fos tered by the state arid nation. With the most magnificent agricultural countrv In the world we should know nothing' of bread and labor riots. Statesmen shouid look more to the prevention" of crime than to methods of punishment. " The country needs a " more practical states manship less talk about states rights and more about state development instead of a department of war we want a department of peace. It is impossible to do justice.to Mr. Dufur's paper with out -publishing it in extenso, which we hope to do in the near future. After a .duet by the Misses Dufur and Heisler, Mrs. N. Canfield read an ablv written paper on "Women's Sphere," in which she took strontr radirnl women's rights; ridiculed the Hebrew "tradition" about women beinsr created irom a man s rib and ncnrWl Paul having taught that women should occupy a Clace subordinate tr - usuua V.iaiUlllig that his teaching .was a reflection of the times that produced a Tiberius and a Nero. The church had been teaching that women should pray and men vote ; Mrs. -Canfield proposed to turn the tables and have the men pray while the women did the voting. She claimed that women's sphere has neither begin ning nor end; it is boundless as the ocean. Having paid a glowing tribute to the gray haired founders of the re public who had inaugurated a reform in human government, she prophesied a coming reform with reference to women's place in society as great as that. which took place at the' commencement of the Christian era and closed with a highly j complimentary reference to the nnivpr- sity gift of Senator Stanford bv which I the future mothers of the nation were placed on an educational, equalitv with men 60 that they may be fully qualified ! ior ineir high calling and destiny. ; j inis was followed bv a taoer bv Miss Margaret Snell, entitled" "The depart ment oi Household science at ths agri cultural college." This paper was la:gely devoted to an explanation of the methods of training of adopted at the college. The door of the' college was open to all ; the cost of yearly maintenance ana tuition need not exceed $150. Every branch of knowledge calcu lated to fit the voune woman for bpr future lot in life as an accomplished farmer's wife, was tauirht . Th instructed theoretically and practically in cooking, sewing, canning, tending the sick, marketing and other household duties and acquirements while lessons were also given in horticulture, floricul ture, kitchen-gardening as well as in milinery and dressmaking. This was followed bv an excellent paper by Mrs. G. W. Johnston on '.'The cultivation and management of flowers, in which many important practical sug gestions were offered. After the reading of an amusinf? mnr by State Lecturer Holder in which the college bred agriculturist, was sadlv scored, the question box was opened and the. following Oliestiona riiarMiac! "Should there be a bountv on cavote scalps?; When is cream ripe?; I8 there any truth in the theory of planting corn and potatoes in the light of the mdon? This discussion was entered into with such zest and good humor that it' cave one the impression that it was the most enjoyable exercise of a yery enjovable day and as the clock now indicated nearly ten the proceedings of the first day of the Farmer's Institute were brought to a close by a sog from the' choir. : (Concluded tomorrow.) .
