The new organi zation is holding its convention this week at Topeka, Kan., with an at tendance of 1500 delegates and spec tators. The r.ans of the farmers- union is to store the wheat crop in co-operative elevators, which are to be located at numerous convenient points in the wheat i:.oducing states, and simply decline to sH until whatever price they m;.y nsree rpnn Is offered. In the matter of establishing ele vators much prcgress has already b'-en made as the states of Illinois, Minnesota and Xebraska each report CVir ''"j. while several other states almost equal that number each. Tha purpose is to urge co-operation all along the line, to keep the farmers po-td and ultimately to control acre age so that there will be little-surplus t tarry over. The new organization has had a most wonderful growth only having been .organized in 1902. The present membership aggregates 700.000, which all will concede Is a growth of a new organization probably unequalled In the past In so short a period. Its or ganization was effected In Rains co'un- ty. Texas, and aggressive work has ccntlr.ui d since the start. Numerous we-kly and monthly publications have espoused the cause of the new union and the rapid growth is expected to continue as 150 organizers are to be placed in the west and every wheat growing county of tho United States is to be visited. Labor organizations are to be Invited to co-operate in the movement. MAKE ALCOHOL IX OREGON. Howa:d K. Clover was In eastern Oregon some time ago looking over the opportunity for establishing a de natured alcohol plant In this section. He represents capital desirous of en gigiiig In the industry and is looking for !"ur sites for such plants. .Since his visit here he has been at Coos Bay and has made arrange ments there to erect a plant. It Is to be of sufficient capacity to consume .me 5'i(j,0o0 tons of potatoes annu ally. He has contracted for potatoes at IS a ton. Th."t will be a very Important In dustry for that place. The land there produces potatoes to great advantage. Ten a.'ies would yield at least $1000. That Is more than could be secured eom an average crop of sugar beets, while the cost of cultivation Is nomi nal compared with that In the pro- ijiictlnn if beets. There Is no thin ning to Jo and tlio cultivation can all V ly machinery. Such 'i plant would bo good for any of the localities '.vhore jiotatoos yield a lar;e crop.

The manufacture of alcohol requires a Rival amount of fuel. This can be mined right on the ground there, and consequently the cost of making the product will he very much less there than in mcst any other locality on the coast. Rut, wherever In the west such plants may be established, they will t0.u) tc bu,d up ,he ngrcuituraI n duntry, since the soil and climate In nearly all the irrigated regions, as well as in some sections where irrigation Is not necessary, are especially adapt- I ed to the tuber. l'LENTY OK Fl EL. If there is a shortage of coal and wood in Pendleton the fuel of good fellowship was not lacking at the meeting of the business men and O. R. & X. officials this morning. It would be fortunate if a fuel fam ine, or some other such public emerg ency happened oftener to bring busi ness men and railroads closer togeth er. Many of the troubles of business life, as of private life, are the result of misunderstanding. If we knew all about everything, there would be much less difficulty In getting on in the world. And the only way to ar rive at a thorough understanding Is to meet and talk over the issues at stake. That there is a fuel famine In pro- Kress all ever the northwest is known t0 a" who re!ia or b"""-e- But th it is not due to wanton negligence on the part of the railroad companies. Is also well known. The country Is growing rapidly. New towns and enlarged settlements are making new demands on the coal and wood companies. As was said at the meeting this morning, former ly a carload of coal would "go around." Xow It requires a train load. The magnitude of the Pacific coast has net yet dawned on the pioneers. Coal companies, railroads, merchants newspapers, larmeus all are una wure of the gigantic proportions of the west. It is developing at such a rate that no one can keep pace. We get Into a rut and sled along in the old way, while every hour the panorama of development is changing the map and we are lost in wonder when the truth dawns upon us. Formerly a tralnload of coal a day wouid "swamp" all the stores along the line In eastern Oregon. Today a trainload of either coal or merchandise will not cover the bottom much less fill up the space. What is needed Is more railroads, more coal mines, more facilities. There Is plenty of fuel In Oregon to supply the state for centuries. Rut this fuel supply must be un covered and made available. To do this In the most practical and most speedy manner Is the great problem. To relieve immediate needs a few cars of coal and wood will be shipped 'n. Blgg"r problems may be discussed later. These are splendid times. Work is plentiful and men are scarce and everything is booming. Where work- Ingmen receive 13 per day for their services, they are required to pay $3.25 to the trusts for the privilege of living in these glorious times. For tunes are heing piled up by the great monopolies so rapidly that President Roosevelt is considering the matter of asking congress to place a restric tion upon the amount of money which one man or corporation shall take possession of he does not suggest that they earn these Immense for tunes. The Oregonlan prints In a conBpIc ui'us place and with very prominent announcement a half dozen democrats who are not In sympathy with W. R. H"art. That's nothing. The entire republican legislature of Oregon pass ed a resolution discrediting the work of President Roosevelt in ferreting out the Oregon land frauds. Wher ever you find a public man who stands The Woman Who Writes to her friends will create a fine lm prcsslnn Irrespective of her diction If she uses "swell" stationery.

That very blight paper, Tho Dalles Chronic le, mistakes the Capital Jour nal's attitude. Too Journal has always helped east ern Oregon get appropriations for the portage road. Ten vears ego, when Portland op posed the portage road, the editor of the Journal was fighting for it. He made the fight on the floor of the In use against railroad attorneys that first got consideration for the portage. These things arc all forgotten, an 1 there arc editors now who Imagine tl.ev get nothing but what thoi ....r from Portland. Put the time has come whan vt. em Oregon must have recoenltton n well as eastern Oregon. V estern Oregon wants free locks In the Wl'lametto. n won .,. Oregon in the Columbia. estern Oregon wants rWr,r -c, and better harbors, as well as the Co lumbia basin. Western Oregon will nnt t,.r,,i . have every dollar of state and federal aid poured Into the Columbia for the next 10 years, ns has been done for the past 10 years, and western Ore gon harbors neglected. Salem Jour nal, A GRIDIRON ELEGY. Xow comes the megaphoneless hour of the day The hoarse-voiced crowd begins to twenty-three; The rooters homeward plod their weary way, And leave the field to doctors and to me. In yonder ambulance, that rumbles o'er the hill, Full many a senseless giant, bleed ing lay; And to the hospital went battered Tom and Rill, To count the many bruises of the day. For them no more the ump're's whls tie calls, Xo more the megaphones will bid them kill: No more they'll have those thrilling dives and falls. That have their sequel in the doc tor's bill. Perhaps to this neglected ground there creeps Some chap who last year played the game; He takes one look ah, how the poor chap weeps Across the field where he lost gore and frame. Full many a star of purest ray serene The white beds of yon hospital now bear; Full many a player's born to groan unseen And waste much arnica likewise much swear. Far from the madding crowd's Igno ble cheers Hereafter they will limp their way along. And play high-five, or shake the dice for beers Or stick to that tnost quiet game ping-pong.

God knows, find at best too much of gall, And then with generous, open hearts kneel, giving Ui to the dead our all? Whv do v.e pierce the warm heart's sin or sorrow With Idle 1ests, or scorn, or cruel sneers, i And when it cannot know, on some tomorrow. Speak of Its woe through tears? What do the dead care for the tender token The love, the praise, the floral of ferings? But palpitating, living heartj are broken For want of Just these things. Selected. RABBITS IN NEW ZEALAND. Everybody has read of tho efforts put forth by the farmers and the gov ernment of New Zealand to get rid of the pest of rabbits whose rapid In crease at one time seriously Inter fered with the crops. But the tables were turned, and the pest has been made a source of prof it. In 1893 more than 17 million skins were exported; In 1904 over six million skins, valued at 204,000, and nearly 4.500,000 frozen rabbits and hares, worth half a million dollars, were exported, showing that rabbits n.ow can hardly be looked upon as wholly worthless.

Figures which have Just been com piled from the new directory of living graduates and former students of Princeton university show that the college graduate of today is more and more choosing a business rather than a professional career. These statistics show that nearly one-third of the liv ing alumni of Princeton are in busi ness. The increasing number of college men who are entering and influencing bu:4uess life in America Is one of the marked changes that has come over our educaWd population In the last 25 years. It Is not so long ago that practically all boys sent to college were destined for a professional career law, divinity, teaching, medicine, Journalism, engineering, etc. Rut all this Is changed. Exclusive of the class of 190(1, there are 71!0 living alumni of Princeton. Of the 6522 classified according to their occupation, 22S5 are In business, 1498 In the law, 924 In the ministry, 699 practicing medicine, 433 teachers, 290 engineers, 104 Journalists, 60 are ranching und farming, 60 gentlemen of leisure, 41 students, 34 In the army, - tff t.sW BLOOD HUMORS Itchinp, disli-unn- eruptions, rashes.

These acids and liumoru wil'.i , inch the blood is fille' are being constantly thrown olT through the por-.-s and glands, and the t l;ir is kept in a feverish, diseased and unsightly condition. Nothing npplici' externally can change the condition of the Mood or prevent the outflow ol poisons and acids ; only constitutional treatment can do this. The countie.t? washes, salves, lotions, etc., that are used cannot reach the humor-laden blood and are, therefore, useless, except for the temporary comfort and cleat: hness they afford. The acid poison in the blood, which is the cause of the trouble, must be removed before a cure can be effected. S. S.

It completely eradicates every trace of the poison and restores this vital fluid to its natural state of purity S. S.

In the eighties the number of graduates following a business career shows a marked In crease, amounting to 25 per cent. This percentage remains practically the same for the alumni In the nine ties. In the clnsses which have been graduated since 1900, the Increase Is very marked, averaging 60 per cent. It is a fair presumption that there will be an Increase Instead of a de crease In the number of students who will follow n business career, and that the tendency of the times to educate a man for business by sending him to college for four years or a shorter period will lncre'ase rnther than di minish.
