, A Condon man has solved the wheat
:and other farm product questions. He
would have the government carry it at
a uniform rate, as mall matter is now
carried. Thus the farmer in Oregon
could ship to New York for the same
price that the farmer in New Yrk
paid. It would be a fine thing for rail
roads, however, ' as it would increase
their business immensely. '' A bushel
of wheat would be worth Just the same
price in any part of the United States.

Meudell, Colonel William P.Cralghill
and Captain William L,. Marshall,
will assemble In Portland about Octr
ober 15th, to consider and report upon

consist principally of a change of the

-who have a prune orchard in Irish

prunes, green.. The ofler came from
the Portland Fruit Union, and the
fruit was for shipment east. Tho' offer
was not accepted as the crop had al

The Arlington Record says: Mr. Pat
Cahill informs us that on last Saturday
be was alarmed by the earth rising and
sinking at Quinu's station, which re
minded him of earthquakes in Califor

was the sudden sinking of about 100
Jeet square of earth to an Indefinite
depth,, no bottom being . visible. The
next morning the hole was filled with
water. Pat says he was never fright
ened so in his, life.' He described, the
motions of the earth with bis arms go
ing up and down like a "teeter In
quick motion. ' The hole is on the river
bank close to ' his cabin, and we would
think from the manner of his descrip
tion that it would have frightened the

: Does it not Beem quite remarkable
that the decision of the court of appeals
at Chicago reversing the tyrannical or
der of Judge Jenkins should cause such
widespread interest? The opinion de
livered on Monday by Justice Harlan
only states a few commonplaces about
personal liberty, which have been un
derstood from the foundation of the
government. - He declared that em
ployes have the right to quit work
whenever they choose, which means
that they may strike, .This Kas always
been known and was never denied till
Judge Jenkins issued his odious order
last spring. He seemed to understand
..the necessities of the Northern Pacific
officials better than .he did tae consti
tution of the United States. His de
cision practically defined a strike as a
conspiracy, and Justice Harlan says
that it is not. It is rather unusual to
find persons that believed any other
opinion would ' be delivered by 'the
court of appeals. ' That a man or any
number of men have the right to quit
Work whenever he or.thev choose, is a
very self-evident truth. Tomahawk.
The city of Portland is in a bad way,
financially. The city has been build
ing free bridges and water works and
city buildings and so forth, and selling
bonds, till the people find they cannot
pay interest on the indebtedness. Con
solidation .: was expensive also. . The
city council passed an ordinance, with
the object of raising revenue,- taxing
about all occupations except profession
al, but it was vetoed by the, mayor.
They should try an income tax on all
incomes above $500, and exempt no
one. Portland has the reputation of
being a badly governed, city, but is
probably no worse in this respect than
other cities. All large cities seem to be
misgovernedfor the reason' that they
are governed tod much. Until the sys
tem of city government is more sim
plified these complaints will be heard.
It has got to be so in Portland that a
poor man can't afford to own bis own
home; a person owning a house and lot
must have a good income to be able to
pay tuxes. When he has paid the
state and county taxf city tux, echool
tax, road tax, water tux, and kept up
his street improvements, he has paid
out about as much money as the aver
age, farmer takes in -in cash lu the
course of a year. . :."

, Editor Glacier: The recent arrest
of parties for allowing the road to be
damaged should be a warning to those
who put in the little one-plank bridges
over the numerous irrigating ditches
through the valley. Any one hauling
wood or bay .kuows the nuisance of
jolting over a bridge built above the
grade of the road, or over a plank and
into a mud bole, where a bridge has
been insufficiently , covered. . Such
places cause a serious annoyance to
pleasure riding also, as one has to slow
un in crossing, or perhaps wait for
some one else to cross on account of the
narrowness of the bridge. The roads
were laid out sixty feet wide, for the
purpose of. turning around aud passing
teams, and no one has a right, for their
own convenience, to narrow it down so
as to make a bare crossing for one team.
Now that these ditches are becomiag
more numerous, it is to be hoped that
care will be taken to, have the bridge
work done well. ' Teamster.

BOILER PLATS COFFINS.
An Invention to Thwart , the Purpose of
. .... Grave Robbers.
. During the past few weeks Washing
ton has been canvassed by the agent of
one of the . most peculiar pieces of
funeral paraphernalia ever invented,
says the News of that city." It is a bur
glar and fire-proof coffin, with so many
strange adjuncts that a person seeing
it for the first time would throw up his
hands in holy horror at the audacity of
the. inventor, and tho . admirable nerve
of a manufacturer that will place cuch
an article on the market. Despite the
many ghastly features in connection
with these - coffins and the almost
blasphemous talk of the enterprising
agent, this city , has proved to be a
lucrative field for him to work, and
now p, number of. citizens are equipped
with the strangest burial appliance of
the decade. The description of the
coffin, as given by the agent, is as fol
lows: "Primarily the coffin i3 fire and burglar-proof.'
The case is made out of
boiler iron, hardened with old bone,
spruce bark and leather, which forms
an enamel that cannot be penetrated j
by chisel or drill. It is put together
with angle iron and flush rivets, . The
locks are all on the inside, so con
structed with hooks and staples, with a J
spring behind them - that when a pin is J
drawn out from the outside the bolts
spring down and lock : automatically
and the coffin is then locked so that it
cannot be opened from the outside.
The only person who can unlock the
strange coffin is the person inside." ,
There are two grades of coffins-r
those for vaults and those to . be in
terred in graves. . The coffin, to be
placed in a vault is equipped with tor
pedoes that can be exploded from the
inside. , The theory of this is that in
case a person is buried alive he can
throw back the bolts, explode the tor-'
pedoes and warn the sexton, and thus
escape. ' The coffin to be placed in a
grave has attached a strong spring and
arm. In case the person inside finds
that he wishes to get out, all he has to
do is to throw back the spring, and this
arm is thereby released and cuts its
way to the. top, exploding a torpedo
and warning the keeper of the grave
yard. !
' These coffins are sold at so much per
pound, and the first purchaser does
not have to pay anything down. He
simply gives a written guarantee to
the manufacturer that he will pay for
the coffin from his estate within fifteen
days after death, or, failing to do this,
the manufacturer can claim his body
to do what he may wish with it. The
coffins were originally invented '. at
Ypsilanti, Mich., and the invention was
due to necessity. At the time that the
company gained' its inception Ypsilanti
and Ann , Arbor and other Michigan
towns were being overrun ; with grave
robbers. It was to counteract the ef;
fects of this that the coffins were made.
The scare had become so 'bad there
that the people had got in the habit of
placing a body ; in a receiving vault
guarded by an armed sentry- yThen'jit,
was this company began operations. ,
i SPARROWS IN TEXAS.
Driving Out the Slocking 'Birds and At

The little English sparrow is becomf .
ing so numerous ' that there is con
siderable discusr on about adopting
methods of getting rid of the pest.
Xhey are : here, ,. says the Galveston
News, , by the thousands and are re
markable for their fecundity, as they
lay from five to six eggs each' sit-'
ting and raise . three broods a year.
They are no longer considered insec
tivorous, and owing to their pugnacious
habits, making war upon the birds that
are desired and destroying their eggs,
as well as making themselves obnox
ious in a great many ways, and. with "
their rapidly increasing numbers, their
extermination will be a matter of a
serious nature here at an early date.
Other towns are doubtless experiencing
trouble with them, as the bird is mi
gratory in pairs, settling only where
there is habitation and springing into
the thousands like a mushroom. " A
prominent citizen here who has a num
ber of mocking birds in the trees and
shrubbery in his yard,' and who has,
time and again watched the onslaughts
of this vicious little bird with an inva-.
riable victory, states that it will be a j
question sooner or later of state legis
lation by offering a bounty for them. .

" China's 'Weak Organization.
The war between China and Japan is
exploding a good deal of popular no
tion as to the value of numbers and
the strength of the Chinese govern
ment. Americans have been told, through
many generations, of the power of the
Celestial empire; its riches and its pos
sibilities in a great war. The viceroy
not m'iny years ago told an American
that China did not regard the United
States as a , first-class nation, aud that
for a little he would send over a 'fleet
to attack us just for the fun of the
thing, u , ...... ....
Japan has shattered whatever respect
the world has held for the strength of
the Mongolian empire ... . ,
It has developed that in the prov
inces 'the trusted Mandarins have
stolen all of the revenues of years, so
that when the government at Pekin
.turned to find the millions of aid that
it expected there was nota tael in sight.
?'A lack of organization is everywhere
apparent. There is no patriotism and
no . personal courage. Thousands of
soldiers are throwing their arms away
and deserting the ranks where an op
posing power is most needed,. ;
,riie remarkable state of general d is--honesty
is well illustrated by the state
ment just made that a commander of a
'Chin?se man-of-war sold not only all
of the ammunition of his ship a few
months ago, but that he also parted
with an Armstrong gun for a consid
eration. It was with this sort of equip
ment that the Chinese fought the Japs
at theYalu's mouth. China's organ
ization is as primeval as that, of the
tribes of Africa. St. Louis Republic.

"Congress has at least done some good
by admitting wool free-rgood that will

instead of putting shoddy material in
clothing, the best Imported wool will

the result will be a much better class o

ferred. Do not boil the mixture. It is then ready to apply. . 15e sur and
have your kettles or barrel clean (also your spraying tank) and free from other
mixtures, in order to avoid clogging your spraying nozzles.' - Do not spray when :
the tree are moist, 'Pot Codlin-Moth use No. 2, and spray immediately after -the
blossoms drop, then again four weeks after, which will destroy all other in- ,

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in the house, I gave
the child three doses, at short Intervals, and
