TO Jne petition wnicn dwu re! dents of IVkin ent to General Chaffee, asking to have the Ameri -an troops remaiD in Pekin, nonif thing new in war. The United State was one of the nations which joined in the march on Fekin last unmmer to relieve the member tbe legation whose uvea were threatened in that city, and to gire protection to the other Americana and Europeans who were at that point. The Americans did bnl liant service in tbe campaigning and the fighting which resulted in tbe relief of l efcin. I bey ra in ained in the city for several xnonthi afterward, to suppress the disorder, and now they are leaving the country. Before they evac uated Pekin, however, 5600 Chi Chinese resident of that city asked them to stay and continue the good work which they had done in protecting the weak and in feeding the hungry. This is a Btrong tribute to the beneficent part which the Ameri can soldiers took in tne war in China. It is known that in the outrages which were commitUd by the foreign soldiers last year the Americans had no part The con duct of General Chaffee's army was exemplary throughout This is the testimony of English, Ger man, Japanese and other critics on the ground. It is the testimony of the Chinese themselves, as we see from tbe petition which wae sent by the residents at their capi tal, asking the American troops to remain. The fact that tbe appeal was made to the Americans has just been made public by the War Department St. Louis Globe- Democrat KAFFIR CORX. history, while the name of Thomas A. Edison will never die. These people will work for themselves, Edison will work for the eutire world. It is no wonder that the Cana dian Government has been cranky about the Alaskan boundary Hies. This land of enow and ice has been a great pajing proposition. An official statement received at Dawson from Ottawa shows that up to the first of this year the total royalty collected froui the Klondike placer mines by the Ca nadian government amounts to $2,040,192 61. The statement also contains the information that the total revenues received by the Ca nadian Government from Yukon territory 6ince amounts to 14,376,673 16. This includes re ceipts from rovalties, customs. public works, fisheries, fees in va rious departments, land sales, rentals, timber dues, placer grants, sales of the like. miners' certificates and Sam Jones, the celebrated preach er is now operating in Savannah, Georgia. Ho says that he is going to try to "remove the city farther than half a mile from hell," but the people from that place believe that the city is farther from Satan than that Jones is a man who can draw immense crowds. It is estimated that he makes $1 ,000 a week profit out of his evangelical work. His wealth is rated at $500- 000 invested in safe securities. He has recently erected for himself a magnificent residence, elegantly furnished at a cost of between $50 000 and $60,000. The Heppner Gazette comes to us this week with the names of Fred Warnock and E. P. Michell at its mast-head. We have not the pleasure of a personal acquaint ance with Mr. Warnock, but we do know Mr. Michell to be a most worthy and exemplary young man, whose ability and industrious habits are bound to keep the Ga zette up to the high standard so long maintained by its former own ers, Messrs. Otis Patterson and J. W. Redington. Dalles Chronicle. Fred Warnock, formerly of the Silverton Appeal, and E. P. Mich ell have purchased the Heppner Gazette from J. W. Redington and have assumed editorial charge. Both are practical newspaper men and will give Morrow county a first class paper. One of the troubles with the Gazette for years has been its poor mechanical make up, which the new men have al ready improved. Oregon Daily Statesman. Congressman Chas. A. Boutelle of Maine, who died at the McLean Asylum, in Maine, recently, was a very able man. lie made the can vas in Oregon in 1896, and bis brilliant speeches won him many friends in this state. The production of Kaffir corn is now attracting some attention in Oregon. Kansas was the first state to try extensive experiments with this plant, and the results have been most satisfactory. It is well known fact that lack of moist ure is one of the greatest draw backs to agriculture in Kansas. The appellation ''Dry Kansas" is common a&d appropriate for this state. It has been found that Kaf fir corn will produce more feed than any other plant in a dry cli mate. While it would not be fair comparison to class Eastern Oregon with Kansas, still there are many districts where the lack of moisture is a drawback to the production of grasses and feed for stock. The experiment of glow. ing this corn would be easy and not expensive. It might do well here and prove to be very valuable to stock interests. Kaffir corn be longs to the sorghum family and is classed as non-saccharine. It is a single upright headed plant, with an occasional stalk bearing several heads, or if the main head is broken off several small ones will start out, at joints. The Kaffir corns, like all the sorghum family start slowly, but later make up for lost time; the plant does best on warm, friable soil, and the better the land the heavier the yield, although in Kansas it makes twenty to thirty bushels per acre on land that woit produce corn. Thomas A. Edison, the "wizard" of electricity, was forced out of the directorate of tbe General Electric Company at New York at the election of directors a few days ags, and a Boston lawyer, general counsel for several large corpora tions founded on patented inven tiana, was put in his place. All the other former directors were re elected. The capitalists who own most of the 'ew York General Elsctric stock have not been in harmonious relations with Edison for a long time, and they evidently mean to get rid of hie personality, and even, as far as potible,.cf his Dame.

Literary Notes i Cklnmft "K" A Romne of the Urent Wheat Corner. Wheat speculation, love and business art the motives of a great serial Btory by Merwin-Webster, authors of Tbe hort Line War, which will be begun in the Saturday, Evening Tost of May 25. Ex-PreeidentCleveland will contribute to the issue, June 1, an able paper on the waste of public money. In this article Mr. Cleveland sounds a warning note against national extravagance and the criminally reckless expenditure of pub lic money. Frederick Palmer's recent book, "The Ways of the Service," is reviewed at length in the Argonaut for M iy '27, 1001. Under the title, "Soldier Life in the Philippines," are given a number of personal anecdotes and the outline of a tragic story of love and adventure. Where the Catted States Began. Some of the marvelous changes wrought by time in the appearance of four of the earliest settlements on our Atlantic coast are strikingly illustrated in a series of views which will shortly appear in the Ladies Home Journal. The places are St. Augustine, James town, Plymouth and New York. The forlorn indications of Jamestown's de cay and death as a settlement offer a most interesting contrast to the varied evidences of the gradual development os St. Augustine and I'lvm uth, and of the gigantic growth of modern New York. The June Magazine Number cf The Outlook, which is its Annual Recreation Number, contains an article of extreme value by Philip W. Ayres, on "The For ester and His Work." Mr. Ayres tells of the life ot the foreot, its importance to mankind, and of the tracts of forest and that already have been reserved, and it is hoped will be reserved, by the Government. The article is illustrated by photographs of trees, woodland and forefts of the West and South. $3 a year, ihe uutiook company, nu Avenue, New Yo k. The demand for range horses seems to be looking up. A large number are now being shipped from Heppner at fair prices which will distribute a large sum of money among Morrow county horsemen. The erection of a fine new brick business building on Main street, together with a number of neat new cottages in the city is good evidence that Heppner is in a pros perous condition.

To keep on a par with the latter, any succeeding tale mugt be ex ceedingly good, and it is not claiming too much for "Four Leaved Clover" to assign it equality with its predrcessor. It is the narrative of a young English girl's heart in conflict with many dis couragmenta. At last she triumphs in the love of a noble gentleman who was the victim of a boyish trick only toopos i.ble in real life. NOTICE.

The State Normal School at Mon mouth reports that the demand for its graduates during the past year has been much beyond tbe supply. Graduation from the school practically assures a place worth from $40 to $75 per month. The students take the state examina tions during tbe regular course, and are easily able to pass on all subjects re quired for state papers before gradua tion. The school has a well equipped training department consisting of a nine grade town school and of a typical coun try school. advertued Letters.
