WELCOMED HOME.
All Oregon Greets the Second Oregon-Portland
Takes a Holiday.
Morning Oregonlau.
The volunteers are here. Tbey arrived
id Portland on threo sections of a South
ern Pacific train Thursday afternooD,
August 10th, at i o'olook. A little more
than an boar later, they bad turned
their tattered oolors over to the state on
Multnomah field, General Summers bad
given bit last oommand, and all that re
mained of the most gallant command
that fonubt in the Philippines was a
soatlered three or four hundred bronzed
men in khaki Baits The disbanding of
the regiment was by no means a pleasant
oeremony to its members. These men,
who, side by side, bad served under the
old flag for more than a year, bad faced
death without fear, and sickness without
murmur, bad seen their comrades shot
down beside them, and had- upheld the
honor of their etate and tbeir cotmtry in
such a fashion as to wiu the'plaudits of
the entire country, could Dot separate
without feelings of siooere regret, and
from their veteran colonel down they
left the field with grave faoes and quiet
mien. And while the scene on Mnltno
rush field waa una to stir patriotism to
enthusiastic obeering, yet co one could
help feeling that it was a sad business
for the men on parade. ,'
Portland went wild in weloomiog the
returning veterans. Never before have
have euob crowds of people been seen od
tbe streets. Never before have snob
cheers rent tbe air, and never before
have the feelings of the whole people
been stirred an deeply. Tbe soldiers
would have knowD that they were borne
again bad tbey all been blindfolded.
From the time the train entered the
oity limits it was assaulted with oheers
on .all sides. It waa with tbe greatest
difficulty that the men oohld be formed
for parade at the union depot, so like a
surge of the sea was tbe rush of tbe
throng Ibat pressed around' them. And
as tbey marched op Sixth f treet, with
tbe easy swing of the old campaigner,
tbe procession became a promenade of
every one able to walk, and tbe ranks of
tbe kbakl uniforms were almost lost in
tin vari colured attire of the friends of
tbe soldiers who insisted on marching
by tbeir aides. It aa a day Portland
has long been waiting, and one she will
never forget,
Pendleton, Aug. 12 It was a royal
eloome that Pendleton gave to tbe
members of the Seoood Oregon regiment
wbo arrived here this morning. Not
even tbe long delay and tbe trequent
changes iu the pl ioi necessitated by tbe
mustering out of the regiment iu San
Franoisoo oooled the enthusiasm. Pen
dleton laid Bside all biuiuess and other
pleasures to devote a day to honoring
the men who went to the wars to uphold
tbe dig in the distant islands of the
Pacific.
Corvallis, Aug. 12 It was after mid-
night last night when the oalebratioo of
tbe return of the volunteers onde). Tbe
baloon asoension was made at 8:3 J last
night, and waa attended with a slight
aocident. Tbe asoent was successfully
made, and an altitude of a few thousand
feet was attained. Tbe descent with a
parachute, however, was swifter than is
nsnal, and the btloociet smtaioed
severely sprained ankle in louobing tbe
ground. Tbe asoent was made from tbe
oollege campus, and tbe parachute alight
ed near the Oorvallis & Eastern depot.
M'Minnvillb, Aug. 12 Five thous
and people attended the reception given
the Yamhill members of the Seoond Ore
gon today. An exoelleut program was
carried out. Tbe principal feature waa
the address of Representative Tiogue.
Forty-two volunteers gat down to the
dinner prepared by tbe Emergenoy
Corps. In a game of baseball in tbe
afternoon, North Yamhill defeated Mo-
Minnville by a score of 7 to 8. Tbe vol
unteer! gave ao exhibition drill on tbe
streets this evening. It was witnessed
and admired by all tbe people of the city.
Wektoh, Aog. 12 Weston was de
lighted yesterday to witneas tbe return of
every man of tbe liz volunteer enlisted
from this place for tbe Second Oregon.
All looked strong and healthy, having
pat on flesh at San Franuiico. The town
was la gala attire. A large number of
relative! and friends met tbe b y at tbe
station and esoorted them up town in
gaily decorated carnages. Hells were
rung, whistles blown aud giant powder
exploded, and the fatted calf and upring
chicken were duly sacrificed. This
evening there will be a publio reception
on tbe largest lawo in the oity, with an
appropriate program aud a free festival
of ice cream and cake.

Statement Abont the Sluioitln-Miller Poison
ing; Corrected.
A telephone dispatoh from Union on
Tuesday last to the Baker Oity Bepubli
oan, gave an acoount of Joe Himonin and
Mrs. A. A. Miller taking poison, then
looking arms laid down to die in tbe
house of Mrs. Miller. The dispatch went
so tar as to state that Dr. Miracle Bod
Judge Frazier went to the eoene of tbe
tragedy to investigate.
Dr. W. T. Mirsole and A. A. Miller,
husband of Mrs. Miller, both from Rich
land, where tbe pnioooing case was re
ported to have happened, were in Baker
Oity last evening, and both deny any
truth in the statement as reported to
this paper. Tbe faots as given to us by
these gentlemen are as follows:
Joe Simonin was found iu tbe road
near tbe borne of A. A. Miller, uncon
scious, having fallen from liia horse.
As was natural in euob cases, Simonin
was carried into tbe nearest bouse,
wbiob was that of Mr. Miller, and Dr.
Miraole summoned. Tbe dootor states
that he oould find no evidences of
Simouin having taken poison, and tbe
renl cause of unconsciousness oould not
be determined by a physician.
Mr. Miller saye that his brother was
in the house when Simonin was brought
there, and can testify to these faots. Oat
of these trifling oiroumstanoee, says Mr.
Miller, some malioious, blaok-hcarted,
foul-minded scandalmonger invented tbe
report whioh became current at Union
and sent to this paper.
Sinoe Dr. Miracle corn borates the
statement of Mr. Miller, it looks to na as
it tbe pnblio and the press liave been
melioionsly imposed upon, as were tbe
parties from Union wbo sent tbe 'phone
dispatch to the Republican.
Assuming than tbe statements made
by the physician and the husband of
Mrs. Miller are true, any party or parties
who were engaged in circulating suoh a
defamatory report about a family, needs
burning at the stake. Any man or
woman who eaters a home to destroy its
oharaoter by wilful falsehood about its
chastity and honor, U worse than the
thief or midnight assassin, and Shakes
pere has told tbe story in these words:
"He wbo steals my purse, steals trash;
but be wbo filohss from mi my good
name, takea that which neither enriches
him, but makes me poor indeed," Baker

GOLD CKHTIFlC&TKd.
The Troasury Now HakinK I'rcp'iratiniiH to
Ikmuo Them.
Washington, Aug. 9 -Gold certificate?
are again to be issued by the treasury
department. Tbe ordir of miipniion
promulgated by 8 loretary C irlinle April
1, 1898, and in foroe einos that tirru with
two nnimportant exceptions, bth mile
by Mr. Carlisle bimwlf, has been re
vokel by Secretary Goge. Thus offloial
confirmation of th faot tbat tbe nation
is on the flood tide of prosperity it agiin
given. When Secretary Carlisle-sus
pended tbe Issue of these ortifioiteg his
order waa aooepted by tbe bmioesn
world as official notice of a priod of
financial stringency. Tint tbe forelnd
ings were true is written in a dark
ohopter of national history. The revo
cation of the order is regarded na direct
ly tbe reverse.
Tbe main reason for tbe action is the
possibility that tin present national
supply of currency will not be adequate
to meet tbe enormous demands expeotsd
from the fall movement of trade, partic-
larly of tbe crops. Ia one seoee, it is a
precautionary measure, hut in another
and fuller sense it is notioe to tbe world
tbat tbe United States is in an unex
ampled era of national prosperity.
Six years ago th custom of hoarding
gold was prevalent all over tbe oiontry.
Now gold ooin is in such common circu
lation tbat it ia frequently nsed by big
manufacturing and meroantiln oonoerns
in liquidating their large weekly pay
rolls. Gold ooin is too cumbersome,
thongb.to be used t advantage in meet
ing heavy balances of trade, and the
order issued by Scoretary Gage is intend
ed as a means for facilitating; baainess.
These gold oertiflottes will be given
to all comers who present gold coin In
exchange tor them. They will be in
denominations of $20 and multiplies
thereof. About $100,000 000 worth will
probably be ordered if it should appear
that the snpply is tot likely to be large
enough to meet the demand. In the
vaults of the treasury tbere are now gold
certificates aggregating between 888,'
uuo.ouu and wifmfm lo make up
tbe flOO.OOOTH) Secretary Gage today
mads reqniaiiion upon tbe bureau of
engraving and printing for $10,000,000
more in denominations of $20 each. Tbe
printing of these new certificates will be
begun at once, and treasury officials
think a supply will thus be secured
sufficient to meet all demands.

The many grasses and forage plants
of the Northwest, which are tbe main de
pendence of tbe dairy, the wool and the
oattle interests of this oouutry, are now
being investigated by tbe United States
department of agrionltare, through tbe
ohief of the division, Professor F. Lorn-son-Soribner.
Professor Soribner, wbo
is here under instructions from Secre
tary Wilson, has just returned to Port
land from Walla Walla, where tbere has
been looated a grass farm for testing tbe
adaptability of various grasses to the
olimate east of the mountains and for
investigating tbe habits of growth of
new and ' antried varieties. This grass
farm, which is on tbe lands of the O. R.
& N. Co., was established in tbe spring
of 1898, by tbe energetic industrial
agent of tbe company, R. O. Judson.
Upon the reoommendationa of Professor
Soribner, wbo visited tbe grounds last
season, the work was turned over to the
department nt sericulture, and is now
officially under the direction of Professor
Scribcer. The experiments being made
liTJ under tbe immediate care of A. B.
Leokenby, special agent in the division
agroetology and representative of Pro
feasor Soribner, on this coast.
Through the efforts of the agricul
tural department a number of interest
ing aud very promising varieties of
forage plants are now being cultivated
at Walla 'Walla. Prominent among
these are the Turkestan alfalfa, from the
dry regions of Western Asia, end Oasis
alfalfa, from Northern Afrioa. These
varieties resemble tbe common alfalfa of
this country, but it is already manifest
that the first-named is more hardy, and
it is believed that the latter will prove
suitable for locations where irrigation
is impossible. S Booth brome grass has
shown a wonderful vitality under most
trying conditions of poor soil, laok of
water and extremes of heat and oold.
Among those grasses, the seeds of which
can be procured in tbe markets, this
brome, from the steppes of Russia, will
withstand the longest and most trying
peri ds of drought.
A forage plant of much promise and
entirely new to egrioulture is tbe Met
calfe bean, proonred from tbe dry mesas
of New Mexico, by Professor Soribner.
This bean is making a fine growth at
tbe experimental station and may prove
to be as valuable to the dry regions east
of tbe mountains as tbe velvet bean is to
tbe Gulf states.
Particularly striking because of their
vigorous growth aud niauiteBl produc
tiveness are the native rye and wheat
grasses. Among the former are found
our bi'St grasses for binding drifting
sands, or for very sandy soils, and
among the latter occur species whioh
arow udou tbe drvest oattle ranges of
the interior. Slender wheat graBseB is
one of these, and this grass has made
showing at tbe farm, but tbe wheat
bunohgrass is tbe species of all others
the one best suited to conditions of dry
soil and olimate. It is the "bunchgrasB
of tbe Northwest and its re-establish
meut u noil the ranges can doubtless be
effected by reseoding under proper con
ditions, f il lowed by soituble manage
meut iu regard to grezing. Another
grass of maoli promise is blue grama
The grass is one of the "buffalo grasses"
east of tbe lt ioky mountains and affords
much exoelleut grazing. It it can be
successfully introduced npon the ranges
of Eastern Oregon It will be a great
b3on to tbe etookmen of that region
Its power lo resist trampling and
drotigb gives it special value. Its
growth upon the farm bas been remark
ably auocessful.
Several hundred varieties of grasses
aud forage plants are now growing at
Walla Walla, but it is proposed to re-
duoe tbe number and occupy tbe space
with those species which are believed to
be most valuable for restocking tbe
ranges or for the arid regions. The
grasses here grown will supply, at least
ia part, tbe stock of seed necessary for
pratioally demonstrating tbeir value
npon the now depleted oattle ranges of
tbe interior oountry. It is further in
tended to experiment with grasses for
verv aaodv soils, and especially for
those suited to highly alkaline soils.
Experiments bave already been com
menced iu testing tbe value of certain
speoie of grasses for holding the shift
ing or drifting sands along the Oolnm
bia river, and Professor Scribner will
visit tbe region near Seaside to investi
gate the natural aand binder whioh
grows along the coast.
The O. It. A N. Co. is fenoing three
40-aore traots to be need in tbe govern
ment a experiments witn grass culture
one at IJ sines, linker county, high range
land, and one at Eoho, alkali land; one
between Arlington and Stokes, sandy
upland, hsmples of the soil are to be
sent to tbe department of agriculture,
and reports of the success with tbe
various kinds under varying treatments
will be made, so that the progress of the
experimonls may be recorded. Secre
tary Wilson selected these loootioLS
wbeo be wss iu Oregon a few weeks ago.
Besides the tract mentioned, etretobes
of tbe sand along tbe Columbia river
have been set apart for experiments
with sand binding laols,
Tbe interest of the United States de-
partment of agriculture waa brought to
. tbis important Hue ol investigation by
the efforts of the O. R. & N. last year in
the same direotion. Tbe measurable
suooess of tbe company's work sug
gested the advisability of going into it
more extensively, and the department of
egrioulture was moved to take it up,
reoognizing it as of the greatest import
ance to the stock ranges of tbe oountry.
The work seems now fairly under way,
and great results are expeoted from it.
