AMAZING.
Judge Parker exhibits a degree
of ignorance concerning almost
every subject or, which he speaks
which is simply amazing. We
say ignorance, because we do
not believe him to be essentially
dishonest. But his ignorance
renders him pliant in the hands
of those managers of his cam
paign who have his confidence
but whose political methods are
unmistakably dishonest.
The Judge has led a com
paratively quiet life. It is quite
within the range of probability
that his place in the New York
judiciary satisfied his ambition.
There he had a quiet and restful
position where, without any rug
fT?d oil'ort ho -might win a satis
fying measure of fame. He
amply need give attention to
the laws of New York and their
proper administration. He had
no occasion to burden mind and
body with the study of political
principles and party policies, and
yet less occasion to go out into
the wider field of statesmanship
to seek a solution of any of the
problems confronting the Ameri
can statesman.
It is fairly presumptive that
the Hills, Belmonts and Shee
hans of the Democratic party saw
that Alton B. Parker's environ
ment 1-m.d molded him to their
'ideal candidate for the presi
dency. He would know as they
professed to know, believe as
ar they suggested should be
June. On what other probable
grounds may we explain his
statements concerning the course
of the government in the Philip
pines? In a recent speech Judge
Parker said we paid Spain $20,
(iOO.000 for the Philippines, and
then "have wasted $650,0000,000
of the people's money and sacri
ficed 200,000 lives. The records
show that the total expenditures
there have not exceeded $200,
000,000. This sum is not paid
out of the United States treas
ury but from the treasury of the
islands.
If every soldier and officer we
liave sent to the Philippines had
died there the number would
have fallen quite 75,000 below
Parker's figures. The casualties,
from every cause, up to the 30th
of last June were but 40,354.
He made such positive charges
of terrible misrule in the Philip
pines that the secretary of war
called for a specific report con
cerning the allegations from Gov
ernor Wright, governor of the
islands. Governor Wright is a
life-long Democrat, a trained and
experienced lawyer, and for four
years a resident in the Philip
pines. He was a member of
the Philippine commission, and
is now the head of it." He re
futes every statement made by
Tarker. He knows whereof he
speaks. Judge Parker does not,
and since we would not charge
him with the immorality of lying,
it is plain he has just been re
peating the piece composed for
him by some unscrupulous liar
for partisan purposes.
Archbishop Harty has Tjust
- completed a visit to all the im
portant islands and returned to
Manila. After reviewing the
beneficent work of the govern
ment, he says: "This work that
Governor Taf t so auspiciously be
gan and that Governor Wright
continues must be carried to a
triumphant conclusion." But
The Democratic candidate is a
' judge, and has never been in the
islands at all, so of course he
must know. Truly it is amazing.
THE OUTLOOK.
If it were possible for Theodore
Roosevelt to be a stronger candi
date than he was when nomin
ated, he has gained1 strength,
There is no factional divisions
anywhere, which involves the
electorial ticket, In New York
and Indiana the Democrats are
making streneous efforts to win,
so that the storm center of the
campaign is in those two states.
In the states which, at the open
ing of the campaign, were class
ed as doubtful the Republicans
have been steadily gaining
strength, J until it would not be
surprising if they carried away
every one of the group save
Montana.
Dispassionately viewed it looks
as if Judge Parker will be defeat
ed as badly as Horace Greely
was in 1873.
The mass of the people are
prosperous. Everybody is well
satisfied with the condition of
things in general. General pros
perity has marked the Republi
can administration of public af
fairs, and this, in large meas
ure, is justly attributed to the poli
cies of that party. The disasters
which marked the last Demo
cratic lease of power have not
been forgotten. The Democrat
ic party stands discredited before
the people. It ; has no well
defined, positive policy, and its
purposes are obscured by divided
counsels among its leaders, to so
great an extent that it may be
truthfully said to be without
clear determined purpose on any
subject. It stands for nothing
the people want, and because of
this the people turn deaf ears to
its appeals for restoration to
power.
The whole outlook presages
Republican victory.
Several valley papers are refer
ring in a friendly way to a possi
ble candidacy for the governor
ship of Dr. James Withycombe,
of Washington ' county. Dr.
Withycombe, as director of its
experiment station, has done
more than any other man to make
the Oregon Agricultural College
a success and to cause that great
institution to minister toward the
end for which it was founded.
The institutes held all over Ore
gon, have brought him closely in
touch with the agricultural lile of
the state Dr. Withycombe is a
man whose friends stay, in char
acter and ability of high order,
and a practical man of affairs,
accustomed to great administra
tive functions. It has been his
privilege to address in his work
practically every community of
the state. A man of ideas and
lacking not in words Dr. Withy
combe is a pleasing speaker and
possessed of an all around faculty
to accomplish things. Mis repub
licanism has been loyal to the
great traditions of the party.
Geographically, his position is
correct. If he is successful in
gaining the nomination for this
most important office, his elec
tion is assured. It should be rec
ognized that Oregon, to take the
place Nature intended for her,
must do so on her agricultural
possibilities. No mere politician
is fit to be governor of this great
state. In the possibilities sug
gested in this immediate connec
tion, this candidacy appears most
appropriate. It is early. There
will be others. But Oregon will
do well to select as fit and clean
a man as this to be the responsi
ble head of her state govern
ment Albany Herald.

Instructionin Agricultural and
Dairying for busyJFarmers
and Housekeepers.
The faculty of the OAC have
arranged to give two special
short courses of instruction in
agriculture and dairying.
The agricultural course will
begin January oth. and continue
ten days. Some of the subjects
to be presented are horticulture,
plant breeding, bacteriology,
chemical elements, how plants
work, hints on farming, how to
conserve the fertility of the soil,
drainage, soil moisture, fertiliz
ation, rotation of crops, and how
to make the old farm pay.
The course in dairying will
begin January 21. and continue
six weeks. The mornings will
be devoted to practical work in
dairy rooms. Two days tach
will be given to butter and cheese
making and work in the dairy
laboratories. In the afternoon,
except on days devoted to cheese
making, two or three hours will
be given to recitations and
lectures. The lectares will treat
of soil chemistry and physics,
feed and feeding, dairying, breeds
and breeding, bacteriology, and
chemistery of dairy products.
There will be no fees charged
except a deposit of $3 to cover
breakage of glassware in the
laboratory and the aetual cost? of
the material used. If there is no
breakage a part of this fee will
be returned. The cost of the
necessary books will be about
three dollars. Rooms with board
and lodging cost frcm $3 to
$3.50 per week. No educational
test is required of those taking
either course, for the instruction
is plain, practical and simple
and adapted to the attainments
of all. Those who are familiar
with the short system of instruct:
ion regard it as a very efficient
means of familiariziug men and
women with the main points re
lating to the pursuits of agri
culture and dairying. The prac
tical and comprehensive knowl
edge gained enables the farmer
and housekeeper more easily to
reach that higher and better in
dustrial life to which every one
aspires.
Given Small Amount.
In the circuit court of Linn
county, Wednesday, the day was
consumed in the trial of the case
of Mrs. Sarah Cleland against
the Corvallis & Eastern railroad,
and at 5:30 o'clock Wednesday
evening the jury rendered a ver
dict for the plaintiff for $500.
The case was brought for the
collection of $10, 000 for damages
the plaintiff claimed to have
suffered as the result of being
thrown ts the floor of a passenger
coach on the Yaquina train in
July 1903, at the Albany station
by reason of the alleged neglect
of the trainmeu in bumping a
string of cars against the coach.
The case was argued before
the jury in the forenoon, and a
portion of the afternoon and was
submitted to the jury about 3
o'clock. The evidence in the
case was that the plaintiff, a
feeble old lady, had boarded the
train at the C & E. depot after
arriving from Portland on the
Southern Pacific She was help
ed across the intervening space
by a lady who was attendiag her
and placed in a seat of the coach.
Her attendant then left and the
old lady arose and stood in the
aisle, when the engine with a
string of cars backed up to couple
on to the coach and baggage car.
She had been warned by some
one in the coach to be seated
and avoid injury. When the
train was coupled, the passenger
coach started back being moved
from 2 to 4 feef. The lady being
feeble fell and sustained what
was alleged to be a serious in
jury. She was cared for by the
railroad people and provided
with every comfort. The case
will be appealed.
The beautiful home of Mis. T. A
Bell was opened Wednesday to the
Ladies' Aid Society of the Congre
gational church for a tea. The day
was perfect and the ladies took ad
vantage of it and brought with
them a goodly number of strangers.
The guests were greeted by Mrs.
Berchtold and Mrs. Eigerand with
