Secretary Carlisle, his wife says
is to be a candidate for president.
Mr. Carlisle is about the biggest
man in the nation, but unfortuna
tely for the bee in his own and
evidently in his wife's bonnet, the
presidential race is not the big
alone: but really more to the
mediocre, the pedigreed and the
big "barreled."
Oregon is the least known of any
of the Pacific states to tae people
of the east, and the cause of this
ignorance is epsily accounted for.
The people of Oregon have been
content to Jet, well enough alone
and never extensively advertised
the resources of their state. Dur
ing the past ten years the east has
been flooded with literature boom
ing California and Washington,
but comparatively little has been
said in regard to Oregon.

conveyed by the attorney-general's
request, it is doubtful that any
considerable number of persons in
this state approves the us of the
lash in an institution which should
aim to reform as well as punish its
inmates. The practice is inhuman,
unnecessary and usually inefficaci
ous. 1 he urguments that caused
the whipping-post to be abolished
in the army and navy apply with
equal force to the use in the penal
institutions. Solitary confinement
and restricted diet have been found
more potent as reform agents than
the cat-o-nine-tails. Convicts are,
after all, human beings, and mod
ern thought revolts against the un
necessary physical punishment of
any human being. The lash is no
more essential to the maintenance
of discipline in the Oregon peni
tentiary than is the thumb screw,
the rack, the triangle or any of the
other engines of torture which we
now shudder to think of. Super
intendent Gilbert' smartness of re
partee hardly condones his reten
tion of a method which is opposed
by every consideration of prison re
form. Telegram.

The recent rains have done much
damage to the bop crop. Mr. J. C.
Bilyeu, who bad the most promising
yard we saw, stopped picking last Sat
urday; with only about one third

have been saved, but bad doubts about
their being firstclass; and with no out
look for a fair price, did not feel like
paying out money for picking.

Where an advertiser incloses poS'
tal cards or stamped envlopes with
his circulars for a possible answer
in return, he pays not only for the
answers that are returned, but also
for those postal cards or envelopes
that are not returned. This con
dition the United States Economic
Association, of Washington, D. C,
proposes to remedy by the issue of
special postal cards and envelopes
to be inclosed with circulars for
answers, and on which the receiver,
not the sender, will pay the post-
on receipt of the card or envelope.
The cards and envelopes will con
tain the name of the advertiser
printed on the'address side, and a
substitution of name will be pun
ishable by law. This will obviate
paying postage on cards or. envel
opes not returned, and will enable
the advertiser to distribute thous
ands of postal cards and stamped
envelopes, where he now sends
hundreds. The scheme has the
approval of the postoflice depart
ment and has been favorably re
ported upon by A tongrtMfrnu
