for the fiht made ( "ciirc the sl.ulc i(s share of
llic proceeds of the sale of liie 0. & C railroad land ftranl,
especially Sennloi's Cluuiiherlain and Lane and Represen
tatives Siiniott and .McArthnr. Conftres.sinan Ilawlcy de
layed action while the others were busy, but tit 11 io elov
enth hour j-endered tardy assistanee.
The delegation was hanipei'ed by the failure of the ftov
eriior of Orefton to support their efforts, by the midnight
resolution of the legislature favoring the railroad company
and by the failure of the stale conference called by the gov
ernor to take anv action.
Oregon was entitled to the 00 per cent of the proceeds
demanded by the Chamberlain bill, but the opposition of
certain interests rendered it impossible to secure it. The
supreme court held that the disposition of the grant must
be made by congress by .June J), when, if congress failed to
tict, the railroad might applv for a modification of the de
gree. As the national conventions absorb the attention of
congress this week, speedy action was necessitated, and
Senator Chamberlain, as a conferee, secured the best terms
possible.
ruder the provisions of the bill sis agreed upon, .10 per
cent of the proceeds from the sale of timber goes to Ore
gon, 10 per ecu! to the national reclamation fund and 10
percent to the federal treasury for cost of administration.
Of Oregon's DO per cent, 27) jier cent goes to the school
fund and 2") percent to the land grant counties, to be ex
pended by the county courts for roads, schools or port dis
tricts within such counties. One million five hundred
thousand dollars js advanced from the national treasury to
refund unpaid (axes to Oregon counties, which totals about
.$250,000 in Jackson county.
The land is classified as limber, agricultural and power
sites, agricultural being land containing less than UOO.OOO
feel of limber on forty acres, or less than 1,200,000 feet to
a quarter section. ,
Agricultural hind is to be opened to entry at an early
date under regulation of the laud office.
Timber is to be offered for sale iu convenient tracts to
highest bidder for cash, bids to be received for smallest
subdivisions. The railroad company is to receive $2.50 an
acre for laud unsold, with deduct ion of such amounts as the
court, in accounting suit, declares should be subtracted,
Lands comprising citv watersheds are withdrawn foi
(wo years, pending further legislation. No land goes into
forest reserves and there is no recognition of applicants to
purchase. Actual settlers on land December J, 1!)KI, are
allowed prelerciice rights,
I5v the terms of the bill counties will receive their de
liiiqiicut taxes, a large sum be provided in the future for
road miildmg, I lie laud opened to settlement, development
anil taxation, and the blight of a vast tract of undeveloped
hind removed from a large portion of Oregon.

In 1 1 ate., t
IT will be with considerable surprise that the people of
Oregon learn that the I'orthunl Oregouian is respon
sible Tor the heavy vote polled by Justice Hughes iu the
Oregon primaries. Such, however, is the contention of tbe
Oregon Voter, in the follewing:
The overwhelming vote fur lluahea for prealdenl waa a great tribute
to The OreKoiiiaii, which for neurh a year haa been foalerlng the llughea
aentlmenl. Ktlllor IMper doaervea to be regardod aa an original llughea
man. The editorial and die puhlliity he haa given to Mr. Juatke
llughea placed htm before' the people of Oregou lu auch a light that the
votera appropriated him aa tbvir own candidate and rwordod a preference
that may make a prealdont.
If the rank and file of the republican party had thought
for a minute that .lust ice Hughes was the favorite candi
date of the Oregouian, and reflected the sinister reaction
ary program of that tory .journal, they would have justly
viewed him with suspicion and treated him as they treated
the Oregonian's favorite candidates, Judge Littlefieltl for
congress and C. It. Moores fur secretary of state.
Justice Hughes' vote was due to the popular supjyoHi
lioij that he was the most available compromise candidate
ami would prove a winner, lie was not championed espe
cially b the Oregouian, which feared to express a prefer
ence, lest sonic other candidate be selected.
A large portion of the Oregonian's editorial space is
taken up with championing the power trust and its raid
UMin the iiiitunil resources of the nation. It evidently
HUijroscd that Justice Hughes bail taken no stand upon
this issue and would favor the private grab of the H'opJe's
pro)Hart. Hut .Mr. Hughes is on record as opposing the
Oregonian's pitigiant of loot. In his message as governor
to the New York legislature iu I JKT, (toveriior Hughes:
said:
It In wi'll to (oimldi-r the Ki'iit wilue of the undeveloped uuiii
power. They alioul.i be picaeived and held for the benefit of all llu pio
pie, uud ahoiild not b aurteudered to piltaie lutereata.
Simply iMvuiiht' Hughe wears whiskers, doesn't make
him a second YVitliyt-oiuhc. willing to use his official po.M
Hon to proiute private grabs of public properly as ado
euted by the Ot'egoiiiuu.

One quality stands out pre-eminently
in a good, satisfying cigar.
That quality is mellowness.
Mellowness means an agreeable
smoke. It means a cigar which is not
harsh a cigar which is pleasant.
It means a good quality of tobacco
in the first place, and properly cured
tobacco in the second place.
It means you can smoke two or
three mollow cigars and fully enjoy
each one.
Since mellowness is such a vital
factor in your enjoyment of a cigar
What do the makers of the
OWL do to protect its mellowness ?
Answer: The makers of the OWL
maintain a million dollar reserve
supply of mellowing tobacco at all
times. Every leaf is thoroughly cured
and mellowed before they use it. Thus
they make sure that your OWL will
surely be mellow when you buy it
