was asked, "what principle do you
apply to your fanning to enable you to
make money when so many are com
plaining that in no department on the

and by carefully keeping account of
all outlay ami revenue so as to tell how
much more Is secured from one line
than another."

WATERLOO GOSSIP.

have two sacks of wormy apples-let

Times flourishing. We mean by UiIb
they are as good as they have been,
with prospects no better for ,the
future. 7
We bave waited long for the regular
correspondent to ventilate the town
with his garbage, but we learn he has
quit writing on account of "great
bodily fear". Therefore we will
scribble until this dire calamity gets
to camping on our trail then, and not
'till then, we cease. '
Waterloo has had two weeks boom,
and the chances for recovery are
dubious. The W. D. Company have
had a force of men building a crib at
tbe bead of the ditch; also removing
the knitting machinery with a view
of putting in looms and refitting the
mill. Let the time come quickly
when the mill shall run. i
We have been having glorious times
of late. The ' Recorder's court pre
sided over by Judge Hutton has been
the scene of action. A gent was fined
for having said a "cuss word"' some
time during his natural life, and
within the corporate limits. A lady
was fined for expressing her belief in
the frailty of man one in particular
by not imitating G. W. at all times
in bis speech. Another prominent
gent was let down down a V for eat
ing sour grapes oft another gents'
vine. He says he ate three and they
nearly gave him the lock-jaw. An
other (In faot ex-mayor) (old ottr
worthy P. M. to go to that undis
covered land that Bob says is in man's
mind only. Nine D's and twenty
five C's is all It ooet to give vent to
this Populist idea. Another denizen
belayed a yonker on bis .knee and
played paternal juggling on the
wheel-house of his bloomers; this was
healthy exercise, but came hib.
Ten dollars and trjmmings.
The public debt is diminishing and
town scrip sells at par.
Dancing is an expensive luxury at
present the licence being $2.50 per
night and yet some say they wUb it
was $50. Our predecessor tried, to do
bis duty by these so called "balls'
and failed, therefore we forbear. ;
Only one thing mars our otherwise1
happy career and (bat is this: Iu the
published reports of the the county
commissioners why is this so often
seen? "Riohard Roe, aid to poor $10."
We believe In Justice to tax payers the
name of al who get benefit of 'county
funds ebouh have their name appear
In full. We do not claim the hoard
do aught but tight, but tbe man or
beast who takes public aid and Is too
proud to see hla name In print U
too proud to receive such aid, Is tbe
ppin,lon of Jaggers.
New Product for Oregon.
Professor Bbaw, chemist at the
agricultural experiment station at
Corvallis, Is delving into the problem
whs,t canaigre will do, fur Oregon
farmers. The experiment began lust
week aud iu due time will be reported
in a bulletlu. Canaigre Is a bulb that
formerly grew in a wild state In
Arizona, but Wore recently has been
cultivated with Indifferent success. It
is used for tanning leather, for which
it is equal, if not superior, to oak or
hemlock bark, and. sells in this country
at $20 per ton, Iu Vienna at $6$ per
top, '('en to fifteen, tops per acre is the
possible yield, and it costs $20 per acre
to grow it, A warm climate with
plenty of moisture is necessary to
successful cultivation, and for this
reason tbe professor tbluks that in
Eastern Oregon,, where Irrigation Is
possible, the bulb may be successfully
grown and become one of tbat sec
tion's exports. Tbe experiment will
include a trial in all portions of the
state.
A Girl KMls, Cougar.

A few days ago a bog Imprisoned in a

It was stated yesterday by n wel -known
railroad official tbat Marcus
Daly, the Montana millionaire, and
