united with the republican party. In
1866 he was appointed attorney general
for Illinois. At the national republican

nomination in a speech that attracted
much attention. From that time bis

letter from W. M. Rudio, who departe
early in the spring with bis eeoond banch
of cattle for the Dawson City market
is dated J one 29, 1899. at Lewis river
below Five Finger rapids. He says
We left Seattle June 2d, and expeoted
to De in uaweon City July 21, making
tbe trip in 30 days, the fastest trio ever
made witb oattle. I have met with
head winds on the lakes and was delayed
several days on aooount of them. How
ever, with that exoeption, we have made
good time and have made tbe tri rt nnnr

a scow or cattle was wrecked at Bin
Salmon a few days ago, in which 14 head
of cattle were lost. One was wrecked at
Five Finger rapids, in which four men
were cirownea, and the entire load of
15 tons of general merchandise wae a
total loss. The river is very bis-b and
the ourrent very swift, which inoreas.s
the danger in traveling.

There are quite a number or people

three going in to one coming out. We
met the first load of miners at Like

good this year. It is estimated between
815,000,000 and $20,000,000.
It was very cold up around Obilkoot

15000 MOBB FOB WHITMAN.
A Generous Contribution Fro. a Lady in
New England
Walla Walla Union.
Tbat tbe friends of Whitman oollege
are alive to ita needs is shown every day
oow. When President Penrose returned
to this city nigh before last, he found a
letter from a wealthy lady in Vermont
(who had already given tlOOO to tbe
dormitory fund) enclosing heroheok for
86000 additional. She stipulated tbat
her name should not be made known,
but our readers would recognize it as
tbat of a woman famous for ber benevo
leoae.the widow of a distinguished man
who laid tbe foundation of bit fortune
on tbe I'aoiQo coast. It has been her
custom for tbe laet 12 years to give $1000
eaob year to Whitman college, ber hus
band having taken much iuterest in its
itory. Aeoently she has beooms more
leeply impressed with tbe needs of tbe
college through tbe effeotive pleadings
jf Miss Pox, tbe agent of the oollege in
tbe eastern field, whom Dr. Pearsons
calls "the smartest woman in America."
The total amount sobscribed towards
lbs dormitory is now $23,000, which still
leaves 85000 to be eeeured for bestincr
nd furniture.
Dr. Pearsons, who baa already giveo
J 113,500 to the college, bas just written
to President Penrose thai if tbe two
bonding) are built and paid for by Jano-
ry 1, be "will give seme mors money."
If every person in Walla Walla would
looble bis subscription, this mysterious
ffcr would be quickly accepted. It is
forth remembering that tbe great ool-
!ege builders hardly ever give less than
150,000 at a time Wbere is tbe man or
?omau bo will give this last raucb
needed 15000 to complete the dortoitor?
Mast Assess Notes.
Io an opinion Just rendered by Attor
.. I Tit 11 . .
uo uaunrm oiHCKourn tue oonntv as
sessors are instructed to assess notes
secured by mortgage when held by resi
dent owners. He holds that no property
1L i 1. i i .
uiuer loan inat mentioned in seotion
27S2, ia exempt from assessment and
taxation, and that notes, whether seoured
by mortgage or not, are nowhere men
tioned as exempt, but, on tbe contrary
are made the subjects of taxation by seo
tions2723 and 2831, and says: "They
oannot, therefore, be exempted beoanse
assessors refuse to assess them." He
says, a note is simply written and prima
facia evidenoe of indebtedness, and a
mortgage given to seoure suoh indebted
nesi is only an inoident of the debt. The
mortgage creates a lien upon the prop
erty desoribed in it. Tbe interest, which
tbe mortgage bas in the property, is
simply the equitable right to foreclose
by proper proceedings in a court of
equity and to sell tbe property for the
purpose of paying pro. tanto tbe debt
thereby seoured. There oao be no doubt,
therefore, nnder the constitution of this
state presoribing tbe mode of assessment
and taxation, and definitely pointing out
tbe personal property subjeot by tbe
legislative assembly for the purpose of
osrryiog into effect tbe provisions of tbe
constitution in respect thereto, that tbe
notes are required to be assessed by the
oouoty assessors of several oounties. It
thus appears that not only the statute of
the Btate prescribes, but tbe decisions of
our supreme oourt also declare, that
notes and accounts must be assessed for
taxation, if tbe debtors are solvent, and
tbey must be so assessed in tbe county
in which tbe owner resides. It is tbe
duty, therefore, of the assessors of the
several counties to assess personal prop
erty of this charaotsr to tbe owners
thereof wbo are residents of their re
spective counties. Salem Heotiuel.
Smallpox in the Valley.
There is little doubt but tbe smallpox
is pretty well distributed over the Wil
lamette valley. On last Wednesday a
young man traveled on ths train from
Harrisbnrg to Portland and exposed tbe
oooupaots of tbs oar. He wbs f borongbly
broken out. There are some cases at
St. Psul and up on the Hantiam, Our
sutbonties should set promptly and do
everything to prevent the spread of the
dread disease. It Is said the disease la
of a very mild nature, aud no deaths are
yet reported io this county.
There are a o umber of cases in Port
land, and tbe health officers at Portland
notified the governor that it would be
dangerous for tbe Oregon boys to come
to Portland. There is a very great
danger of smallpox spread in this
valley. The time of year is auspicious,
People are traveling, are ooming togeth
er at picnics, etc, and great care should
be exrciel. Cases should be promptly
reitorted to authorities, end communities,
la view of !KiibilUfe, rhonld prepare
for handling eifen iu humane and
buncos liUe mnnner. There is no need

Appears to Be an Epidemic of This Kind Now
Rasing In Portland.
During tbe past week four young girls
have been reported at polioe bead
quarters as missing from their homes.
Of this number three have been found.
One was dead in a park on the East
Side,; two others were found roomint?
itn a girl friend in a lodging-house, and
tbe other is still at large.
The two girls found in the lodsina-
nouee were 15 aud 16 years old respec
tively, aad had gone there to stay with
a girl friend whoee mother worked away
from home. The parents of tbe miesioe
girls, after searching for them for a day
or two, reported their absence to the
chief of police, and a search was begun
wbiob resulted in the finding of the two
girls. , They were taken to the station
and kept by the matron until their
parents oould be notified.
The parents of each girl appeared to
be honest, industrious people, who have
ned to bring their girls up in they way
they should go, but tbe girls seem to
bave an idea tbat they know of a better
WBy, and are in a fair way to get in tbat
way from whtoh few, if any, ever get out.
lbe two girls found in the lodging-
house with their girl friend had. so far as
is knows, been behaving themselves, but
the offlcors who picked them up ere
satisfied tbat young girls oannot abide
in safety in suoh a manner for any length
or time.
The fourth girl who is yet missing, is
Kate Prouty, 16 years old, whose parents
live on the East Side. She has been
missing for several days, aud the polioe
ave been making strenuous efforts to
looate her. Her father has also been
nuling (or her day and nigbt, visiting
tbe nearby towns, and going among her
friends in search of a olew.
Mr. Prouty does not suspect foul play,
but thinks the girl has beeo enticed
away from home by some of her friends,
aDd knowing the danger of a young
gin's leaving in eooh a way, he ia anx
ious to And her before she sball fall into
the bands of some moral leper, many of
whom are lurking about the city all the
time, seeking for piey.
Ths polioe oflioera are of tbe opinion
that more oare should be taken by pa
rents as to wbom their ohildren associate
with, and at tbe enme time tbey declare
that those wbo persuade young girls to
leave home should be dealt witb in a
way tbat would stop such work.
The olUoers will keep aolose watch for
euuu luuiviuuBis, ana win make an
effort to break up suoh praotices in ths
town.
Hi ere are said to be other oases of
eirls missing from tbeir homes in tbe
oity whioh are not reported to the polioe
lor the reason that tbe parents wish Io
avoid notoriety. Io suoh OAses the pa
rents search for the girls until found.
All this leads many to the belief Ibat
there are young men in Portland wbo
make a praotioe of enticing girls to go
elsewhere for a time, hoping in tbal way
to accomplish their ruin.

An Advertising Genius.
None of tbe gifts of the lute Robert
Bonner was more striking than bis in
sight into the value and certain results
of newspaper advertising. He grasped
tbe fact tbat tbe attention and apprecia
tion of lbs world can be commanded by
a liberal and constant appeal to its taste
and judgment. He presented an article
of merit and kept it constantly before
the publlo. Bonner's success was tbe
triumph of this idea. He believed that
he oould spend a great deal of money in
advertising and that it would return
, I I 1 . ... . .
uremuiu anu lourroia, lie made no
mistake in this opinion. It is estimated
that he spent 81.250,000 in advertising
and tbat be left an estate of 815.000.000,
Bonner was a printer aod came into pos
session of a small trade paper whose ex
letenoe was known to few. He cbanaed
il into a literary weekly adanted to ih
popular demand and adverted it into a
osculation of 400.000. Many prominent
men and women were secured as oon
fc:u... . i ...
vnuutura, out sue sorewa editor never
allowed them, or any of hn staff, to write
over the beads of bis subscribers. He
aimed above all to interest tbe average
reader. Bonner oame of a thrifty raoe
and it is donbtful if be ever deliberately
wasted a dullar in bin life. Yet year after
year for a long peiiod he paid out enor
mous sums for advertising. He would
oocnpy many ooinmns with tbe repetition
of a single line tbat be desired to im
press upon poesible subscribers. He
was often asked, suys a writer in tbe St.
Louis Globe-Democrat, why one oolumn
was not as good as six or twelve. But
Bonuer knew that it was not and dis
tanced all competitors by maintaining
his ground, ttuob questions pleased bim
because they were an assurance tbat bis
method in itself was an e ffeotiva adver
tisement. He bad the nerve to nav ont
vat surnsof money without the Imme-
iate and palpable equivalent thai is
usual. Another of Bonuer's nesnliar
dverti semen Is was tbat he would admit
no oommeroial advertising to bis own
columns. Tbat made evervbodv wnndor
again. His own broadsides were printed
almost exclusively Io the daily press.
Tb power of advertising is belter Un
derstood now than it was when Bonner
sed it to seoure fame ud fortune, but
is example had tnuoh to do witb mak
ing tbs secret known to other men of uo-
usual buiiuees prscoptiou and enterprise, ;
Making Hay In an Alfalfa Fields.
The conversion of a heavy mass of
green alfalfa into a choioe quality of
bay is an operation calling for no small
degree of skill aod experience. But tbe
process is one to be learned by intelli
gent observation and praotioe, rather
than from written . description. The
first aod second orops of eaob season
need to be oured witb special oare or
they will certainly mold in the stack.
Beginners need to be beware on this
poiut. Tbe knack to be acquired is that
of curing the hay sulBoiently to insure
its keeping sweet in the stack witboul
beooming so dry as to sbed its leaves io
the handling. This oannot possibly be
accomplished by ouring in the swath.
A method muuh practioed is to rake tbe
aflalfa while still quite green into wiud
rows, where it is allowed to stand until
ready for tbe stack.
This process makes vary nice bay: but
where a large aoerage Is to be taken oare
of, it is too slow aod expensive. Al
falfa may be oured witb entire suoaeas
in tbe windrow, but it is important when
cured in this way that there is ample
facilities for potting it into stack very
rapidly when ready; otherwise it will
become to dry, and muoh of it will be
lost in the bandltug, especially if it has
to be oarried from the field on wagons.
Alfalfa should be out on the first ap
pearance of bloom. After trying a va
riety of appliances for stacking alfalfB,
I find the so oalled table rakes, wbiob
are simply an improved form of tbe old
godevil, and the rioker whioh supple
ments them, the best suited to my con
ditions. By means of these rakes tbs
bv. h taken from tbe windrow by horse-
powsr, and is conveyed to tbe staok in
masses weighing from 200 Io 400 pounds,
is there delivered to tbe ricker, and is by
the rioker landed into Ihe middle of the
staok.
The only band power required is for
tbs distribution of tbe bay after II is
placed upon tbe staok, Five men and
five horses, witb two rases and Ibe
rioker, may easily put thirty tops of
bay a day into staok, at a cost of about
35c a Ion. Tbe great draw baok to these
rakes is that tbey can be used to ad
vantage only oo short hauls. The plan
on which I laid oat my farm happened
to be one, however, perfectly adapted
to their use. I bad parallel roads run
ning through the farm about thirty rods
apart, whiuh were protected from tbs
irrigation water by ditches on either
side, and Ihe fields consisted of lbs long
and compsrively narrow belts lying be-
tweeu the roads. The alfalfa was out
in blocks of about ten acres, and was
stacked on Ihe road immediately adjac
