The season has arrived when that big cleanup of the city is order. in The Gazette believes that W. R Jkilis is better tmed to represent the people of Oregon in Congress than any other man in the race in the second district. Especially is this true in reference to Eaoteru Oregon. In London the Oiegm Yellow Newtown Pippin apple takes front Tank in the fruit sales. These ap ples are in better demand, the price- is three times as high as the East ern grown product and over twice as high as apples grown any where else in the world. Oregon apples are also being shipped to Vladivos 1 1 I" 1 1 iou, ri ussi8, ana fire nrineing in this foreign market $7.50 per box. A systematic campaign against aheep infected with scabies iu Cal ifornia will eoon be commenced by the state veterinarian of that com naonwealth, by and with approval tf the governor, who has issued a proclamation to the effect that all f the 6heep there must be dipped between March 15 and July 15 Best, and all premises where sheep are kept must be cleaned and dis infected. The affected sheep must be dipped twice within nine days and the healthy sheep once. This work has been gone over and com pleted in Oregon and the benefit to the sheep industry therefrom would be hard to estimate. J. A. WOni.KKX. In the passiug of J. A. Woolery a vigorous, active and useful life was cut short His successful career from the very bottom round of the ladder stands as a monument on which is inscribed something that if studied and absorbed by tbe youn men starting in business and also the older ones already in business, will be of great and lasting beuefit. Joe Woolery was ambitious. Not being content with the drag and routine of the little farm in old Missouri, his ambition led him to tbe West. Coming to Morrow county when a young man, fresh from the firm, bis capital consisted of muscle and earnestness in application. Sheep herder, rancher, merchaut, capital ist and investor, Mr. Woolery backed bis judgment with all his force and energy. Reverses were brushed away, never knowing the meaning of tbe word fail. In building up his own vast in terests, bis band was always out for the public good. Unselfish, be helped to build up tbe community along with his own interests. IGNORED Till-: PRESS. . We thick the country merchant lias the riybt idea about his farmer rustomers. lie knows that ha de pends upon them for trade and that they depend upon him for goods and a market. This is mutual and the 'feeling between tbe two classes should be one of friendship and good will. It is mutual depend ence. Yet there are thoee who de light fo stir up enmity between the farmer and the country merchant. They do it from ultprinr motives, but the farmer doesn't know it. We know of do ren edy save to get as close to tbe agriculturist as you can. Talk with him, show him you are interested in his success, and make him see the true relationship between himself and you. Oregon Tradesruau. Theln'and Empire Wheat Grow ers' Association held their annual meeting at Pendleton, last Satur day. Tb repoi ts submitted at the meeting bhow a very satisfactory condition of affairs, the original stock now being worth 100 per cent more than at the organization of the association. In speaking of the association the East Oregonian says: "All expenses have been paid, about 400,000 grain sacks have been purchased and distribu- ieu 10 me memoers anu mere re mains SHOO on hand in the treas ury. The members are pleased with the ie.-ult of their sack pur chases by meaDS of the competitive system as a great .saving has been accomplished in this way. The coming year promises to be better than ever and the association is now on a pt-rmaneat and substan tial basis. The membership prom ises to be greatly increased and tbe sack purchase-j for next harvest will more than double, according to the prospects cow." How about that organization in Mcrrow coun- The last legislature of Oregon passed a law requiring the secre tary of state to send out printed copies of the initiative measure be fore the people to every voter in the state, thus giving the state printer work which justly belongs to the newspapers of the state. Before the legislature passed this unreasonable measure the newspa pers of the state printed the initia tive and referendum measures and thus the measures reached the vo ters in an attractive and readable form. The cost to the state was insignificant, compared to the ser vice rendered by the newspapers. With over 200 papers in the state of Oregon, every voter in the state could be easily reached through this medium, but that the state printer's enormous income might be further increased, the legislature ecided that the newspapers of the state are no good anyway, and so they-were deprived of this little mite of state advertising. The work of printing and distri buting 100,000 coptes of tbe initia tive measures before the people this year will cost tbe taxpayers three times as much as though the same work was performed by tbe newspapers and the publicity through the papers would have been much greater than under the present system.
