FOR THE SENATE.:
Upon the next - legislature of our
state will devolve the duty of elect
ing our United States Senator. ' For
many reasons this will be for Ore
gon, one of its most important pub-
- lift QTonfa 'FVia V..Vnnt?n.-t. lltnf
will come before the next few ees
sions of congress will- equal
weight and magnitude anything
that has come before ; that body
since the days of the early '60s,
The election at which members
our state legislature will be chosen
occurs next June and it is none too
early to discuss possible and eligi
ble candidates for national senator.
Oregon is proverbially slow .".to
take advantage of changed condition
but the recent and radical changes
that have come upon us with the
advent of our national develop
meat in the Pacific ocean demand
mat uregpn snail take a promi
nent Btand upon the various ques
tions that will arise in the nation's
councils. Oregon must be in the
front rank of Pacific coast states in
all that pertains to the develop
ment of Pacific and t transpacific
civilization and commerce. The
first and most important step look
ing to this end is th& election of an
able, vigorous man .to . the senate,
If Oregon is to take and keep the
place she is entitled to hold in the
- councils of the nation, and especial
ly in so far as they relate to to Pa-
viuv waov JuaibdSj bliuu DUO iiiUOv
send a strong man to the nation's
council chamber. - Among those
who have been mentioned as possi
ble candidates is Mr. H. W. Scott
and of him it "can certainly be said
he is an able and strong man.
Tim TTvrnw.fi A
oriiy ior announcing; Mr. ecatt s as
candidate, it does not know that he
would be a candidate in fact, he
has said he would not be, bui his
name has been frequently, mention
ed pflate as that of one who could
ably, vigorously and creditably rep
resent this. - state in the United
States senate. The great ' question
coming up for settlement before the
councils of the nation, and which
must be settled within the next two
or three vearo, are the money ques
tion and on this issue Mr- Scott
fitted to represent the views of his
states then there is the Nicaragua
canal; a form of government for
Alaska; the Hawaiian islands; the
hum: : ;ij. 1 jji -
i uuippmc uuauus, auuuur ranuiy
growing trade relations with China
and the Orient. On all these ques
tions Mr. Scott has a profound
knowledge and the gift to " impart
it, and those who know him do not
doubt that he would be heard and
felt as a state legistator. ' , " . .
For thirty-five years Mr. Scott
has fearlessly discussed publio men
and politics and there are few - men
that could have managed this sorry
thankless task and stood the test
of public opinion as well as he has.
He has been a power, yes in many
instances his pen through the col
ums of the great paper he has edit
ed, has been the power that has
spoken for Oregon's development.
But it is not for this service that he
is entitled to be considered a senat
orial candidate; it is because of
his peculiar fitness, his vigor,
strength, and knowledge of our na
tional and state needs that makes
him an especially eligible person
for this place at this time. - .
There are other, candidates that
will come in for consideration later,
but suffice it to say at this time,
that in Mr. Scott Oregon would
have a senator in whose ability and
power she could well take pride.

TREASURY KEEPING EVEM.
So far during the 'present fiscal
year the revenue keeps a - little
ahead of the ezpenditures. At the
end of the first quarter a surplus of
about $2,000,000 is shown. Ra
ceipts for the quarter have increas
ed $17,000,000 over the same period
last year. The expenditures have
fallen off $45,000,000- Customs are
yielding from $000,000 to $1,000,000
a Jay. -Both show an aggregate
train for the month of $5,000,000
over last year during the month of
September. The war depaitrrent
is spending an average of $12,500
000 a month and the Navy depart
ment $5,000,000. Last month's
statement of gold in the treasury
was 9xU,uuvs,vaas. j. lie ucjjteuiuci
figures are $254,000,000. This is a
remarkably fine showing. The
army has been increased from 27
000 to 100,000. A war is under
prosecution 7,000 miles away that
will require the services and trans
portation of 50,000 or 6.0,000 men

government is more than paying
expenses. ,
When the treaty was under ais-
eussion several senawio
that it would plunge the country
enormously in debt. Senator oar
urged this view.' Senator Caffery
was especially . explicit. He esti
mated that the cost of holding the
Philippines would b& $221,151,000
a year, more ; than the present
entire expenditure on the army and
navy, and we should not disband
either if the islands were surrender
ed.. Senator Caffery declared that
"our imperial budget for the year
ending June 30, 1900, even as stat
ed by Secretary Gage, is appalling
enough. But I am confident that
he underestimates the expenditures
of that year if the imperial policy is
to be carried out.'' Well, the end
of the first quarter of that year is
at hand, and there is a surplus of
$2,000,000. Secretay Gage's esti-
timate runs over, not under. "A
vast deal of foolishness was talked
by senators who fought the ,. treaty.
Thei prredictions and their figures
are on a par with their patriotism

KILLS WILD MUSTARD.
There is not a farmer in Oregon who
has been bothered with the weed, but
who is interested in the destruction of
wild mustard. This is a most notorious
weed and does a great deal of damage
to the farms in the Willamette valley.
This plant flourishes in the surrounding
country where the condition of the soil is
suitable for its growth, and any remedy
that will serve to destroy the weed will
be most gratefully received by the far
mer.' It is known to be a fact that the plant
will not grow only in those places where
the soil is in the right condition, or
where "the composition of the soil is such
as to nourish the plant Iu the face of
this fact it can be easily seen that if the
condition ef the soil be changed, the
plant will not grow therein.
An experimenter by the - name . of
Doughtery has fonnd a solution, that
when applied to the soil will destroy the
mustard but at the same time will bave
no effect upon the wheat or other grow
ing grain that may be upon the field.
The solution discovered by Mr Dongh-
tery consists of a four-per-cent solut ion
of copper snlphate, : or four pounds of
copper sulphate to ten gallons of wate r,
the solution to be sprayed over the infect
ed fields.
In regard to the " experiment, Mr.
Doughtery says :
"According to my experimental notes
the mustard sprayed on. Jnne 24th was
dead on June 28th, and there was no ap
parent injury to the croo. As regards
the effect upon the crop I may say that
the sprayed oats headed out about three
or four days later than the unsprayed,
and are from four to six inches longer in
the straw.
"I expect to find in all cases an increas
ed yield. This I attribute to the extra
amount of food available for the
owing to the de atb of the mustard.
