REPUBLICAN QUARRELS.
We would be pleased to have
every Rerublican in Benton coun
ty read the following extracts
from the National Tribune as its
notes of warning are certainly
applicable to Oregon and should
induce every Republican to wake
up and go to work :
Are the Republicans goine to
settle up their quarrels ? The
well-wishers of the party are be
ginning to ask that question with
all seriousness. For while Nom
inee Taf t is the apostle of peace
and has been doing much to place
the olive bransh in the handy of
all concerned the month of Au
gust is slipping away, and inter
party fights are quite as acute as
acute as ever,
Republican quarrels are not al
lowed to distract well-informed
men, as a rule. Fiercely as the
party wrangles before the Con
ventions its factions are accus
tomed to close the ranks after
Conventions. August is usually
the great month for the Republi
can peacemaker. The quarrels
this year have been of an aggra
vated character, and the month
of September, when the Presi
dential campaign begins, finds
the party fighting inside its own
lines. The old and prac iced
peacemakers seem to have retired
this year. New men are at the
helm, and they are not as skillful
as some of the oldsters were.
National Chairman Hicchcock
is giving some attention to the
adjustment of these factional
fights, but in spite of him and of
Taft the fighters keep on fight
ing. Every effort to patch up a
peace seems to be followed by a
new outburst of trouble
The j
olive branch work, however,
seems to be of the utmost import
ance at this stage, of even more
importance than the organization
for the National campaign. For,
although voters are very intelli
gent in splitting tickets, the fact
remains that with local quarrels
the National ticket is .bound to
suffer.
President Roosevelt's hand is
seen more and more in the man
agement of campaign affairs.
Apparently nothing of import-
ance is done without consulting j
him. Every little while the
newspaper dispatches tell how
this appointment to campaign
work was made at the suggestion
of President Roosevelt. The
travelers up to Oyster Bay are
not quite as numerous as the ,
travelers to Hot Springs, but very j
many of them are oh campaign .

Hitchcock goes there every little
while to report, and he is execu-, be safely predicted that Hadley

candidate for Governor was also
nominated. Both of these nom
inations will help the Republican
ticket and strengthen Taft's
cause in the State. Whether as
much can be said in Illinois is un
certain. However, once the pri
r
maries are out of the way Repub
licans are more apt to get togeth
er for the campaign.
Soon the effort will be to arouse
some interest among the Repub
licans in their National ticket.
There is great lethargy. True
this is August, and the election
is 11 weeks away. Lethargy has
become a growing feature of
campaigns in recent years, and
sometimes is not as dangerous as
it might seem. None ti e less,
the fact is thSt the ticket of Taft
and Sherman has not aroused
much enthusiasm. The applause
has been perfunctory from the
country at large. There has not
been sufficient disposition to take
off one's1 coat and get into the
work of winning voters. Inter
est in the personal differences of
the leaders has been more pro
nounced. For these reasons many good
friends of the Republican Party
want to see a change in the spirit
of the campaign. They argue
that it is time for the columns to
be moving forward. Taf ts chan
ces for election, of course are
good, but the idea 13 becoming
prevalent that it is possible to
lose the Presidency if they do not
watch out-
ISSUE OF CAMPAIGN.
The overshadowing issue of
the campaign really is: Shall
the administration of President
Roosevelt be approved? Shall a
party of demonstrated capacity
in administrative affairs be con
tinued in power; shall the reins
of government be placed in ex
perienced hands, or do the people
prefer to trust their destinies to
an aggregation of experimental
malcontents and theorists whose
only claim to history is a party
name they pilfered?
With a record of four decades
of wise legislation ; two-score
years of faithful administration;
offering its fulfilled pledges as a
guaranty of its promises for the
future, the Republican party ap
peals to the people and, with full
confidence in their wisdom and
patriotism, awaits the rendition
of the November verdict. Sher

man's speeeh of acceptance.
The Republicans of Missouri
feel that with Taft and Hadley
as leaders they are in fine shape
for contesting the state in the
present campaign
Missouri is.
one of the states that will be
vigorously fought for. Nation
ally, its electoral vote of eighteen
and congressional delegation of
sixteen may not be necessary to
the choice of the next adminis
tration, and to a Republican ma
jority in the next House, but it
can never be prudent to let a
single vote go by default. Mis
souri was Republican by over
20,000 in 1904, and Democratic
by a few thousands in the off-year
1906. It ought to be Republican
next year on the national issues
presented. With its varied in
dustries, agricultural, manufac
turing and mining, Missouri cer
tainly should be Republican if
protection alone were the policy
at stake.
Mr. Hadley's unanimous nomi
nation for governor opens a large
vista of progress for the state.
The succession of governors for
thirty-six years has been Demo-
cratic without a respite. 1 his is
the politics of Bourbonism, based
on ring manipulation, state board
rule for cicies, gerrymanders and
other gross unfairness. It can

A Harney county Republican

THE FRESH COW.
Following Calving She Must Have
Good Care and Feed.
The fresh cow has a right to good
care. If she does not get it her ownei
will suffer. The fresh cow, especially
if young, is nervous and excitable. Foi
this very reason she acts In such a
way as to annoy her owner or keeper,
but the owner or keeper is not wise
who is weak enough to give vent to his
annoyance in abuse of the cow. The
cow is not to blame for her nervous, j
condition. Harshness will actually
lessen materially the supply of milk.
The man who cannot control his tem
per would better let dairying alone,
lie cannot make It pay.
The fresh cow also requires care and
judgment in feeding on account of hei
feverish condition. She Is not only
fevetish, but weak. She will crave
water, but only a little food. The
water will be better if it Is slightly
warmed. Professor Smith of the Uni
versity of Nebraska suggests the fol
lowing as a method of feeding for the
first few days following calving:
"Whatever is given her should be of
a light character, such as well cured
clover or alfalfa and a little bran, pref
erably made Into a mash by the use
of warm water. A few pounds of
bran will have a cooling and laxative
effect, which is always beneficial just
after calving. The' following day fouT
or five pounds of a mixture of equal
parts of corn, oats and bran would
prove satisfactory.
"Without oats it would be well to
feed equal parts by weight of corn and
bran, gradually increasing the corn to
three-fourths of the grain ration, at
the same time making the daily feed
gradually larger until at the end of
three weeks she is receiving a full ra
tion of ten or twelve pounds of grain
per day, the exact amount depending
upon the size of the cow. In the mean
time the cow should be given all the
clover or alfalfa hay she will con
sume." Cows In Hot Weather.
Spray the cows before they are
turned out to pasture In the morning
with a mixture of equal parts of coal
oil and fish oil. Cne gill, applied with
a spray syringe, trill cover the neck,
shoulders and legs of One cow. The
following mixture Is recommended by
the 'Wisconsin experiment station:
Resin, one and- ohf-half pounds; com
mon soap, two cakes; fish oil, one-half
pint, : and water, three gallons. Dis
solve the resin by boiling In one gallon
of water' and the soap cut fine. When
dissolved add the fish oil and' tne' re-'
malfifler of the water. Stir thoroughly
before using: Apply with sryrrnpre or
bFush. i This 4s an . excellent fly repel-
