SALEM SEJSiTlO".
Salem Is mill considerably agitated
over an olopenirnt that took place id
th capital city some time ago. The
"Albany Telescop tells the best
Htory of it that has been publlsed an
follows:
"Seven or eight years ago, Rev. X
L. 1'urrlxh, then over 80 year of age,
was united in arriage to a Mrs.
Msittie IVarco, a good looking widow
with one child, her former husband
having been killed by her uncle in a
dispute over a line fence between
two farms. They apparently lived
as happy together aa such people
usually do, until she formed the ac
quaintance of O. W. Junta, a negro
barber. She at once hired him as
the family coachman, and be took
up his home at her residence leaving
bis wife and own family. Their ac
quaintance grew into perfect Irjfatua
tion, at lea-t on her part. She paid
nil his bills and dressed him exquis
itely one cigar bill amounting to
t'iH, Her conduct became the talk
of the 'community, but her wealth
uttracted the church people and she
was thus enabled to hold her position
in society.
"Jones was mentally alHlcted and
five different time was sent to the
asylum, but each time she had him
released and tukea buck to ker house.
The culminating point was reached
last week as is always the vestUt in
Huck cases. At every bunlaess house
.he had run bills, as being wealthy
her credit had betm sxillujUed.
Creditors became uneasy, however,
mid finally the sheriff was given pa
pers in a suit for money. Wednes
day he went to serve thew but she
pleaded sickness and attfcwd him to
call the next day. That afteraoon
hhe went to the asylum and had
Jones released as he had bean sent
there for the sixth time for horse
whipping and attempting to shoot
her. Her plea to Mr. Ilowland was
that she wanted to take her invalid
husband to Portland for medical
treatment and innlsted on having
Mr. Join to care for him going
down. The scheme worked and all
three went to Portland. Old Mr.
l'arrish was taken to Ids son's home,
and she and the negro left on the
night steamer for Han Francisco.
Sho had sold everything she could,
mortgaged their Ivautlful suburban
home and hail taken with her in
cold cash about $10,000. As the
property was in her name she had
violated no law and hence could not
bo stopped. Her husband, one of
the old pioneers ot Oregon, always
wealthy, is left to die penniless
through the intrigues of a woman
whose dis"ased brain has caused her
to leave home and family for a craay
negro."
This Mrs. J. L. Parrish Is a daugh
ter of lr. lliat who formerly lived
between Forest Grove and Gaston.
Her name was Mattie A. I Hat. She
taught in the public schools of the
county. Afterward she married a
man named Peart. Pearce aud a
man named Hiat, a distant relative
of Mrs. Pearce, quarrelled over a
line fence, and during the quarrel
Hiat killed Pearce. He was tried in
this county and sent to the peniten
tiary. Mrs. Pearce was always vin
dictive toward Hiat for the killing
and declared on the street here when
Hteps were taken to secure a pardon,
that Mr. Parrish, as chaplain of the
penitentiary should use his inlaence
to prevent Hiat's release.
"WATEKISU" THE t'lUMEB.
We have been invited te go iatoan
irrigation scheme in Southera Cali
fornia, which is to cost $2,000,000, but
is to be capitalized at twice that sum,
while water rights at $20 per acre are
to tie issued to the tune of $rt,OM,000.
Thus the poor settlers are ts pay for
their water a sum that will yield a
big revenue on six times the actual

tion beani MttMuly o1xfte this
ptx'iS of lajnciertng that aims to
burden ipdastry with tolls to pay
4ividends on fictitious capital. Ag
riculture can't stand it in irrigation
vifiLsnny more; than In railroads.
The day of bonanza farming is pass
ed never to return, and farmers
tinder irrigation will do well if they
arc able to make fair profits for them
nelvcs during the next ten or twenty
years, after paying for water wily a
rice that will maintain and improve
the irrigating system, provide a re
wrvc against rontingt-nclea and ay
reasonable annual interest on the
money actually invented.
It Is high time to call a halt In such
exploiting of water. Unless this Is
done, the over-capitaluced irrigation
enterprises that are already in re-
reivers' nanus win do lonoweu Dy
many more. Reckless financiering
has already given a serious shock to
F-ustcru capitalists' faith in Irrigation
Investments, and unless promptly
corrected will cost our Western coun
try the loss or deprivation of untold
millions. As rmatter of fact, Irriga
tion works offer a most attractive In
vestment for capital when properly
managed. Under such circumstances
they are absolutely good for every
dollar actually put into them. Not
only is the principal perfectly secure,
iut the interest Is equally certain be-
ause farmejs and fruit growers must
have water and are willing and able
to pay a fair price for It.
Let each of our Western states as
sume control, if not the ownership, of
all large irrigation systems, present
ind prospective. Let the state at
least govern the capitalization of such
corporations and oblige them to
make truthful reports of their finan
cial condition, subject to state aaec
tion, Just as the principal Eastern
status critically watcn and Inspect life
insurance companies. Then there
would be no trouble in selling lrriga
tion bonds or In gettlug . Eastern
money for any desirable irrigation
enterprise.
American Agriculturist believes in
going still further, and would have
each state own the main canals aud
reservoirs and guarantee the princi
pal and Interest of the bonds required
for tiieir purchase or construction
Such bonds at 6 per cent would com
mand par, and probably a premium
in both home and foreign money
centers. This would enable the state
to guarantee water at cost to all its
people, which would enormously
stimulate Immigration and develop
ment.
Which of our Western states will
be the first to rise to the occasion?
American Agriculturist, Dec. 15th.
STOOD AT HIS POST.
John Maynard was well known as
a God-fearing pilot on Lake F.rie.
lie had charge of a steamer from De
troit to Buffalo. One summer after
noon smoke was seen ascending from
below, and the captain called out :
"Siraou, go down and see what
that smoke is!"
He came up with his face as pale
as ashes, ana said: "captain, me
ship Is on fire I "
"Fire! Bra! fire! Are!" instantly
resounded in all directions. All
hands were called up. Buckets of
water were dashed upon the flames,
but in vain. There were large quan
tities of rosin and tar on board, and
t was useless to try to save the ship.
The. passengers rushed aft and
inquired of the pilot : "How far are
we from land?" "Seven miles."
How long before we reach it?"
"Three-quarters of an hour, at our
present rate of steam." "Is there
any danger?" Danger enough here !
See the smoke bursting out ! Oo for
ward, if you would save your lives!"
Passengers and crew, men, women
and children crowded to the forepart
of the ship. John Maynard stood at
his post. The flames burst forth in
a sheet of fire ; clouds of smoke arose.
The captain cried out, through his
taumpet, "John Maynard!" "Ay,
ay, sir!" responded the brave tar."
"How does she head?" "Southeast by
sast, sir." "Head her southeast and
run her on shore." Nearer, nearer
yet, she approached the shore.
Again the captain cried out: "John
Maynard I" The response came fee
bly, "Ay, ay, sir !" Can you hold on
live minutes longer, John?" "By
God's help I will!"
The old man's hair was scorched
from the scalp, one hand was disa
bled, aud his teeth were set ; yet he
stood Arm as a rock. He beached
the ship. Every man, woman and
child was saved, as John Maynard
dropped overboard, and bis spirit
took its flight to Qod X. B. Oough
THE ST0RI OF A HASVKERCHIEf.
On the occasion of Mr. John B,
aough's funeral at Hillside, a little
handkerchief was placed over the
back of his chair, the latter being
placed at the head of his coffin. The
story of that handkerchief was told
by Mr. Oough la an at disss in Coop
er Institute on tha occasion of the
fifth aniiversary f the National
Temperance Society ia May, 1870,
We And it in the "Uoagih Memorial"
ataahlet, Just issued by the akieiWy.
31 r. Ootegh said: "I have in my
tisane a small handkerchief, not
worth tbt-ue cents to you, but you
coald not buy it from me. A woman
brought it and said to my wife: . 'I

tboutand pounds if I had it, but I
bronght this. I married with the
false) and brightest prospects before
me; but my husband took to drink

everything, urss sold until, at last, I
found myself in a miserable room.
9y husband lay drunk in the corner,
and my child that waa lying on my
knee was restless. I sung 'The Light
f Other Days Had Faded,' and wet
my handkerchief through with tears.
My husband said she to my wife,
met yours. He spoke a few words,
gave a grasp of the hand, and now,
for six years, my husband has been
to rue all a husband can be to a wife,
and we are getting our household
goods togslber again.
"I have brought your husband the
very handkerchief wet through that
night with my tears, and 1 want him

that he has wiped away those tears

These are tha trophies that make
men glad." New York Observer.

WHEAT I CAIirOBSlA.
A former reslrltut of Oregon, uow
In the wheat Uslt of California, writes
back to a neighbor, the following ob
servations of California farming :
For the benefit of those who might
be interested in the way the farmers
throughout the ereat wheat belt
California do business, I will give
you some of the things that came
under my observation, while travel
lng through that country last fall and
winter. The San Joaquin valley,
which Is the great wheat producing
country of California, Is from thirty
to fifty miles wide by 350 or 400
miles In length, a great part or which
Is adaDted by nature to grain grow
ingwheat being the principal pro
duct. Tha most of the farming land
Is owned and worked by companlaa
or corporations, having from 8,ow to
to 8.000 or 10.000 acres in a farm.
The ground Is ploughed all tha
way from two to six Inches deep, sel
dom going deeper than four Inches.
Tha teams used usually are eight
mules, driven with a lerk line. The
favorite plows are the Stockton gang
one ten-Inch plow to every span of
mules. Eight acres per day is con
sidered a good day's work with one
team of elirht mules. The usual way
of seeding is either by a seeder at
tached to the plow or a broad-cast
seeder, which is placed on the hind
wheels of an ordinary farm wagon, a
cogwheel being fastened to one of the
wheels to which tha machinery of the
seeder Is attached. The grain is sown
on the stubble and plowed under. A
harrow is fastened behind each gang-
plow. Thus saving the expense of
an extra team and man for that
purpose.
Each farm keeps from two to four
plow teams, and depeuds on having
what extra help they want teams
coinlug in from the surrounding
counties when there la any plowing
to be done.
I saw, ou one farm of 6,000 acres,
eigbteeu eight-mule teams plowing,
averaging eight acres per day to the
team. So you may imagine that
they do not do things by halves In
that country.
The ordinary wages for an eight-
mule team and driver are $0 per day.
In some parts of tha country traction
engines are used for plowing. I saw
one running with twenty-two ten-
inch plows attached. Three men did
the work. They average about one
acre to the plow with these machines,
but they can be used successfully only
where the ground Is perfectly level
or nearly so.
Harvesting is done with combined
header aud thresher, except where
the ground is too sandy or too hilly,
which la only a small portion of the
grain belt, in which cases headers are
used. In sandy ground the massive
cogwheels can not get a firm enough
footing to turn the machinery. This
machlue cuts a swath twenty-two
feet wide, harvesting from twenty to
thirty acres per day. Four men and
twenty mules, or horses, constitute
the crew and motor power. The
sacks are dropped, three in a pile,
from a platform on the machine, and
hauled from the field direct to the
warehouses. The horses are hitched
ahead of the machine, four abreast.
The machine is steered with a lever,
from behind, something similar to
the headers.
One would naturally suppose that
where they farm on such a large
scale, that everything is done with a
rush out early and up late but such
is not the case. The farm laborers, I
think, have, as a rule, easier work
than in any other farming country.
In plowing and seeding season, they
get np at aix in tha morning, feed
their teams, eat their breakfast, and
get to work about seven o'clock.
They do not unhitch the teams for
dinner, but water them; eat a lunch,
which requires about one-half hour's
time, after whluh they drive on until
four o'clock, which is the usual turn
ing out time for night. A man is
kept on the farm, whose business it Is
to feed hay to all the teams, clean out
tho stables and milk the cows, etc.;
so that when tha men come In from
plowing all they have to do is to pull
off tha harness, rub the mules a little
with a corn brush; feed grain, and eat
cupper; all of which is done before
dark.
On the larger arms they have a
cook and busk house on wheels; so
that you are at home wherever you
stop, and In some places temporary
sheds are built for the mules ; so that
It Is not necessary to travel a mile or
two after quitting work.
Water is hauled in a tank, made
especially for the purpose. The only
part that did not strike me favorably,
for the men, was the sleeping apart
ments, but most of them were used
to it, and paid no' attention to it A
bunk bouse is fitted up for that pur
pose, and all that saw wss not fitted
up with an eye to comfort. Rough
board bunks, one above the other
three high and hardly wide enough
for one man. Some had straw
thrown in loosely on the boards, and
spread their blankets on that, while
occasionally the more enterprising
would make a bed-tick out of barley
sucks, and 111 it with straw.
I heard one man ask a foreman
where he was going to sleep, and he
said he "didn't care a damn, as long
as he didn't sleep In the bouse."
VThere is 7,000 acres," said he, "and
if you can't find a place to sleep there,
you are a d d poo fustier."
Every one ia expected to carry bis
own bed. Tha eating part la all
right-good cooks and the kitchen is
supplied with everything necessary
for a good meal. The wages paid are
higher than in most farrulog
countries $J0 per month through
the seeding season and from J1.5Q
to ft per day through tha harvest,
owing to tha work. The yield Is, as
In all other countries, very much
owing to tho season and the section
of couotry you are in. About ten
sacks to the acre is considered a good
crop anywhere In the San Joaqulne
valley. Everything Is estimated by
sacks and not by bushels, as In most
countries a burlap wheat sack be
ing the standard measure.
The usual time for seeding is In
December, but, on account of late
rains, no plowing could be done until
January last winter. The harvest
loir commences about a month
earlier than In the Willamette val
ley. One can easily see why it Is
possible for those who have made a
success farming In a country where
they have so many failures In crops
when they consider how comparative
ly cheaply tha work is dona.
If an old Webfoot farmer would
happen around about seeding time, be
would say to himself: They are ex
pecting a dry season this year.
MOT.
CITE IT TO THE KAXK3.
If the money of this country Is to
be founded upon government Indebt
edness or other evidence of credit, no
business man wll say that he prefers
the Issue to be la the hands of the
government, at the mercy of schem
ing politicians as administration fol
lows administration. Its proper
place la in the hands of the banks,
handled by men who have been
trained to tha needs of business.
Tha United States treasury should
not be a bank, it should simply be a
repository of the money taken in In
tha regular course of business. It
should perform the same office to the
government that a business man's
money till does io him. Proper
function of the government under
the constitution is to simply aay
what la money, decree what metal
or metals possess enough Intrinsic
value or adaptability to perform the
function of money or exchange,
When the government has said this
its duty to the people ceases, except
to stamp upon a certain quantity of
metal the government's guarantee
that It Is of a certain weight and
fineness. The government does not
have the right to draw a check upon
Its treasury for a dollar, put the check
in circulation and then spend the
dollar. This method on the part of
a citizen would land him in the pen
itentiary In due time. If the gov
ernment Is to decree that the metal
possessing the most Intrinsic value
in ratio to its bulk-gold is to be the
only metal upon which it will stamp
its guarantee of weight and fineness,
it is absolutely essential to the busi
ness life of the nation that a credit
currency be issued, that business be
transacted upon something which Is
not. Business must be transacted
upon confidence, upon credit, if the
government Is to limit the money ot
ultimate redemption to an Issue
smaller than the necessities of busi
ness. If the medium of exchange is
to be paper, place it beyond the reach
of the meddling politician, place it
in the hands of our neighbors, the
bankers. Teach the people the true
function of a bank; teach them that
it is a machine for lessening the cost
and trisk of transferring credits and
conducting trade. Create a bank for
every 600 people, and make the man
conducting it responsible to the last
acre of his farm, the last undershirt
in his wardrobe, in order that if he
violate the confidence of the people
In him, he alone will suffer cold and
hunger.
CRUSADE AtUl.TMT UAXKLIMti.
Oregon is not the only state where
the gambling vice is practiced, and
Oregon la not the only state where a
crusade is waging against the tiger.
In Iowa a campaign has been started,
and, too, at the proper place, the
home. The Independent believes
that games of chance, and especially
games at cards, should not be played
at home for money, stakes, or for
any other thing, not even for amuse
ment. No mother or sister ought to
allow son or brother in after-life to be
able to say "Mother taught me to
play cards. My sister helped ran to
my skill." The clergymen of Keo
kuk, Iowa, have turned their atten
tion to the evil, particular attention
being paid to the matter of playing
progressive euchre and other games
at cards for stakes. Beaently the Pas
toral Association, representing the
Evangelical churches of the city,
adopted and published a Resolution f a
which tha ministers say
"We find it impossible to make
any headway In opposition to gam
bling, in its worst forms, whilst It
prevails in any form in Christian
households. As long as young men,
or men of any class, say our mothers,
sisters and wives, plsy for stakes in
the home, it is little use to say any
thing against playing for stakes in
places maintained for that express
purpose. We, therefore, with one
consent and without any difference
of opinion among ua, call upon all
Christian people, especially mothers,
wives and daughters, to give this
matter their serious attention. And
we do this with the full conviction
thst it i ow duty lp tha interest of
home, church, snd uation, to do ajl
wo mil ui every rrnmmaoie. way 10
arrest the evil of gambling in all Its
forms."
The returns of the recent munic
ipal elections in New England show
that the stay-at-home democrats are
Still bvo tired to go to the polls for
the purpose' of payirjg their party
from defeat. That Is to say, the .re
publicans carried practically every
thing, and gained control of many
towns heretofore held by the demo
crats, Including Fall River, Mass.,
and New Haven, Conn.
