The Gazette.
Thursday, Nov. 9, 1899.
Admiral Dewey Las Dot brokeD
down in health, but bis physician
ordered him to cancel his engage
ments to visit Atlanta aod Phila
delphifl, as a precautionary meas
ure, lest the bustle and excitment
might cause him to do so, and has
ordered him to avoid all excitment
as far as possible during . the
winter. The house for Admiral
Dewey has been selected, and the
purchase will be made this week.
It is on Rhode Island Avenue,
one door from the corner of Con
necticut Avenue, and will be
purchased fully finished, and at
once occupied by the Admiral.
"It is something to be the larg
est retail merchant in the world; it
is much to have an income of $7
per minute, but it is magnificent
to have every man, woman and
child tht you meet raise their
voice in praise of your many
qualities. Forgetting for a mo
ment the merits of the Shamrock
aud the Columbia, or the wealth
of the Islins aud the knighthood
of Lipton, it is but a just tribute
to the Scotch Irish challenger to
Bay that a better all-around gentle
man never crossed the water.
And you cannot be that sort of a
man unless you haye lived it all
your life." Oregon Mist.
As the election for June, 1900,
is not far distant the Gazette is
reminded that our neighbor coun
ty, Umatilla, has been insisting
upon the "lion's share" of the
oflices. At least Morrow has not had
her portion. With this in view the
Gazette insists that the office of
circuit judge, fur the next six
yours rightfully belongs to
Morrow county, and we propose
for the place Hon. W. R. Ellis.
It is but a wanto of words to say
that he is ono of the best men in
the district for the place. This
fact ia undisputed. Morrow is
perfectly willing that Umatilla
should have the ollice of prosecut
ing uttornoy, and suggests the
name of Marion O. Butler, ono of
Pendleton's brightest attorneys.
It comes to light that the but
legislature adopted a measure
calculated to affect the administra
tion of road matters in all the
counties of the state. Although
the new law does not repeal any
of the laws already on the statute
books, that is, in bo many words
by a specific repealing clause, it
practically repeals the others or
parts of them. The statutory pro
visions of this state for road busi
ness appear to bo somewhat mixed.
At the present time there are
three road laws upon the statute
books. Oue provides for the old
systoui of road supervision by
load district supervision appoint
od by the county court, and each
one absolutely iudepeiulout of
every other one.
Then the other law was enacted
empowering the county court to
appoint a county superintendent
over all the publio roads of the
county, and to impose a cash road
tax for the maiutainance of the
highways, in place of toll of labor
with which it has formerly been
the custom under warrant of the
statute to pel mit the payment of
the annual road assessment.
Then, later still, at the last
session of the legislature, a third
law was enacted making these
provisions:
The county court "must" divide
the county into districts, according
to its discretion, aud at the gen
eral state election of 1900, and
annually thereafter a supeavisior
taunt bo elected by the voters of
each dibtnet. Ono provision of
the law is tlint no voting precinct
may bo partly iu ouo district and
partly iu nuotlier. Another provis
ion of the litw in Unit wlum a cau
diJate in elected to the position of
nmd supervisor, and refuses i,
serve iu that en pacify he shall be
iiued by the justice c nut in
his ilihtrivt, the fine money going
into tho funds for the maintain
nnce of the road of that locality.
All these various laws leave
matters somewhat confused. The
provisions fur the election of
BiiperviHtu-fi next year h mandatory,
but what is to he douo betweeu
now and the next geneiul election
is a question. Iu the meantime
our public roads are being neglect
ed, mid the traveling public is en
toriug "complainU continually of
the unsatisfactory condition of
Ligbways. Mist.
WOOLEN MILLS.
The views of a gentleman on the
woolen mill proposition, published
in yesterday's Telegram, are sound
aud timely. Oregon ends away
annually sixteen to eighteen mil
lion pounds of unwashed wool.
Most of it is shipped in the dirt
and greese, comprising about two
thirds the weight of the fleece, on
which woolgrowers pay freight to
Boston. Enterprising men have
helped some of them out, and done
a very beneficial thing for Pendle
ton and the surrounding country
by establishing scouring and wool
en-manufacturing mills at that
point It was under debate a long
time, and croakers said it wouldn't
pay. But it has paid from the
start. And it has made Pendleton
a 20 per cent better town, at least,
and been an advantage to hundreds
of woolgrowerB.
But with low rates from Eastern
Oregon to Portland, this is the
best point for large mills of this
kind. One manufactory helps an
other. Other things being equal,
a large town is the best for an
enterprise. There should be
woolen mills here that would em
ploy several hundred people and
disburse thousands of dollars
weekly.
Instead of sending wool, dirt,
greeee and all across the continent,
and paying return freight on the
woolen goods we import, we ought
to work up the wool at home and
send Oregon woolen goods all over
the country and across the seas,.
The sweeping republican victor
ies of Tuesday's elecsion have sent
the Bpirits of the sheep owners up
"out of sight."

RIPENING OF WINE.
How the Julr of the Grape It Treated
Iu Nwltierlaml.
The wine lu Switzerland ia left In the
casks till the following surinir. anil it
is here that fermentation takes place
ana tne mout is converted Into wine,
Bays the Cornhill Maimzino. Tim
cbaiifro begiuB almost immediately;
mo liquid becomes turbid, carbolic
acid gas is evolved, a aoum ia thrown
up on the surface and tho temperature
rises, a cnmax Is reached; the inten
sity of the fermentation (iiminishes.
subsides; the scum settles as a slimy
deposit at tho lntum of the cask and
a clear yellow liquid is left above. The
grape sugar has almost entirely disap
peared, a corresponding: amount of al
cohol bus taken its place, and the sweet
taste of the mout has given place to the
characteristic vinous flavor of the
wine.
In the early stages of fermentation
enormous quantities of carbonic acid
as are jriven off, and huge fires are
made in the cellars to drive it away,
lint at the time I write of (October,
lw.', when the vintage was the finest
of the century, when barrels to hold
mout could not he purchased for love
or money, when every cellar on the
lake from Cencva to Villcncuve was
pin kid with eiu-ks of mout, so jrrcat
was the amount of carbonic, acid fras
in the air that, iu spite of every precau
tion, several death from suffocation
took plueo union the workers. In the
spring the wine is draw n olT clear into
othor barrels, then bottled; vin ordin
aire Is not bottled at all, but simply
drawn from the wood. This is the wine
sold at all the little wineshops with
which Switzerland abouuds. It is
draw n otT into quaint little glass de
canters containing- half a liter each,
and so served to the tmhurrj ing Swiss,
who drink it round little tables under

London, Nov. 6 Tbe movement of
Boers ia Cape Cblooy ia beginning to
awaken British fears that tbey bave
greatly underestimated the foroes tbey
will bave to meet, and that General
Buller's task is not so easy as antici
pated. It is becoming apparent that all
British oaloalations based on the loyalty
of the population are hopelessly at sea,
or there has been a very serious leakage
of Dutoh sympathizers from Natal and
Gape Colony. Otherwise there ia no ac-
oounting for the large foroes of Burghers
reported from ail directions. The war
office is consequently being orged to
bave more troops in readiness for all
possible demands.

November 5 aud 6 as the dates for com
meooing tbe campaign "all along the
Hoe," and tbe war department has infor
mation today that tbe program is being
oarried out. General Otis' dispatches
are optimistic in the highest degree, and
tbe officials are predicting that tbe re
bellion will be orashed before tbe end of
tbe present month, and that important
victories will be announced within a
few days.

Urace Church's Former Pastor Welcomed by
His New Flock.
TbeObioago Inler-Ooean of Ootober
30th has an interesting aoooont of the
reoeption held at the Oak Park Metho
dist ohnaoh on tbe arrival there of Dr.
Hekiry Rasmus, who will fill that pnlpit
for tbe next conference year. After de
scribing tbe appearance of tbe new.
oomer, wbicb is familiar to nearly every
one in Portland, tbe Inter-Ooean says:
"Tbe most gratifying feature of tbe oo.
oasion was the apparent healing of tbe
breach between tbe friends and the oppo
nents of tbe former pastor, tbe Rev. Dr.
W. H. Darns. John Farson and Samp
son Jones, tbe leaders of tbe opposing
factions, lay down together most lov-
iugly, and tbeir respective adherents
seemed to bave entirely forgotten that
two weeks ago oue of the faotlons passed
loving resolutions regarding tbe depart
are of Dr. Burns, witboat saying a word
aboot his saocessor. It is said every
body is now perfeotly satisfied witb the
situation.
"Dr. Rasmus made splendid impres
eion, and weot at a single bound high io
the admiration and effeotion of hia new
flock. As a man and as a preacher be
oarried everything before him. Hia ser
mon was praised as an able effort, and
bis manner in meeting the people gave
assurance of a man of taot, sincerity and
of strong oommon sense."
