M. S. Baldwin, agent for the estate
of the late General B. F. 'Butler,? con
firms the report that the estate will
conduct a free sanitarium for consump
tives at Fort Union, N. M. The estate
has 820,000 acres of land, known as the

Mr. Baldwin said: . "Dr. W. D. Gen
try will have charge of the sanitarium
ut Fort Union, The estate will repair
all the buildings and tend them free for
sanitarium purposes. Board will be
charged, but that is all. It is proposed
to make this the biggest thing of its
kind in the country, and it will be In
readiness in a few months."
Senator Gordan of Georgia in conver
sation with a senator said: "The de
feat of the appropriation will not' de
feat the collection of the income tax.
Under section 29 all persons and in
corporations with incomes above ?3Q0
uro required to make returns, accord
ing to the form prescribed by the reve
nue department, to the secretary of the
treasury. Those who hope to escape
the payment of the income tax through
the failure oi congress to make the ap
propriation asked for, and who are thus
led tf neglect making their returns at
the time fixed by law, will 'find them
selves involved in 50 per cent . heavier
taxes and be compelled to pay them."
Death of Ex-Uoveriior Chadwick.
Salem, Jan. 12. This city was again
thrown into great excitement this even
ing when it was reported that ev-Gov-crnor
S. F. Chadwick had dropped
dead at his residence while eating sup
er. The cause of his death was heart
disease, and the stricken family had no
warning of the great bereavement that
awaited them. ' " :
Governor Chadwick, as he was fa
miliarly called, was present at the state
house during most of the day greeting
old friends and visiting the legislature;
lie 'was apparently in the best of health,
and was exceptionally jolly. ' He re
turned to his home shortly after 5
o'clock, when he partook of a hearty
supper, and was 1n the act of. rising
from the table as the first attack came;
this - was immediately followed by
another, which proved fatal.
Ex-Governor Chadwick has been a
resident of Salem for many years, and
was loved and respected by all who
knew him..- In 1870 he wan elected to
the office of secretary of state, which
honor was again conferred upon him
in 1874. In 1870, when Governor Gro
ver was elected to the United States
senate, Mr. Chadwick, by Virtue of his
office, took the governor's chair, the
-duties of which he performed with
fireut ability and dignity. . Since that
time he has been practicing' law in
this city, and has been ' prominent in
all matters of publio welfare. He was
born in Middletown,' Conn., in 1825,
where he resided until he moved to
Oregon. The deceased was a member
of the Masonio lodge, which order will
' conduct the funeral. He had a son
and daughter residing ut Colfax, Wash.,
who have been, sent for and will arrive
Thursday. There are also two daugh
ters residing in this city.
The Fruit Growers' Meeting: ,
The annual election of the Hood
River Fruit Growers' Union was held
Saturday. Notwithstanding the stormy
day and bad roads, there was a good
attendance. One hundred and forty
eight shares of stock were voted. The
following named members were elected
for the ensuing year: J. F. Armor, H.
F. Davidson, B. R. Tucker, L. Henry,
Scott Boorman, J. Wickham and F.
G. Miller. ' -"
The report of the secretary showed
the finances of the union to be in good
condition. "
A resolution indorsing the bill now
before the legislature for the protection
of orchards was passed unanimously.
Mr. Brown, manager of the Oregon
Fruit Union, was present and ad
dressed the meeting. His remarks
convinced those present that it would
be a good thing to join the state union,"
and it was voted that the Hood River
union take a membership In the state
union and elect a delegate to act with
the board of managers of the same.'
Mr. Brown argued that wlthoutstate
organization local unions like ours here
were at the mercy of the dishonest
commission merchant. He showed by
letters received, by him that the car
load of prunes shipped from Hood
River to St. Louis lust September was
received in good condition but was sold
below ruling prices by the commission
house receiving it. A carload shipped
by the state union, received in St.
Louis while the Hood River car was
being sold at reduced prices, was held
by proper management until our car
was disposed of and then realized good
prices. Returns from the car shipped
by the state union amounted to $400,
while the shippers from Hood River
received $100 for their car. The dis
honest commission men had scraped
off all brands from the boxes, but by
chance the mime of J. Boggs of Hood
River was left so that it could be read
and the shippers located.
While in an Eastern city, last fall,
Mr. Brown hunted up a commission
house that had received a carload ot
fruit from somewhere in the Willam
ette valley from which no returns had
been made. He found the "commis
sion merchant'1 in a large room that
was bare of goods except a box of
oranges and a case of herring. Mr.
Brown introduced himself aud stated
that he was engaged in shipping fruit
from Oregon. The- J'uierchaiit" . said
he would be glad to receive his fruit,
as they were well prepared to handle
it. "Yes," said Mr. Brown, "I see
you have plenty of room here." Iu a
short conversation the "merchant" was
soon convinced that his caller was onto
his racket and he boasted of his achieve
ments iu the "commission" business.
"In this country," he told Mr. Browu,
"there is a sucker bora every hour, but
out in Oregon they have twins."
The Hood River union acted wisely
in joining the state uuion, aud we feel
confident much good will result there
from. The state uuion has better facil
ities for finding out the state of distant
markets, and as thefruit shipped is
consigned mostly to their own agents,
while a car is on the way, if it is found
that the- market is about to be over
stocked at the point the car is billed
for, it is ordered while in transit to an
other point where there is a better out
look for its sale. ; Without organiza
tion of this kind our fruit men uro at
the mercy of commission men. There
is 110 good reason now why all should
uot join the local union and receive
the benefits to be derived from the
state union.
To School Boards.
The following Instructions to school
boards was received from Supt. Shelley
too late for last week's Issue:
1. Directors should call a special
school meeting, giving ten days', no

ply by the date of your meeting.
8. The clerk cannot give you the as
sessment before the latter part of Jan
uary, and you cannot vote until you

4. When the vote is made the result
must be forwarded in writing to county
clerk by Feb. 1st. (School laws 1893,
pp. 62-64.) . ' ' : :
As the time is limited, promptness
in all your proceedings is absolutely
necessary. -'
TUe Fruit Exhibit at Portland.
Following are some of the topics that
will be discussed at the fruit display in
Portland at the meeting of the porno
logical societies January 28th: . '
Fruits and Flowers, and How to
Grow Them;
Grapes, for the Region West of the
Continental Divide;
Grapes, Treatment, for Winter Mar
keting; Cold Storage as a Factor In Market
ing Fruits;
Place of Pomologyin a Horticultural
Classification; ;
What Helps in Progressive Pomo
logy Are Wo Getting from Importa
tions? -
. Recent Progress in the Evolution of
Our Native Fruits;
Modification of Fruit by Change of
Locality; ' ' "
Prunes: Best Method of Curing for
the Market; .
Spraying: Latest Results for Resist
ing Attacks of Fungi
These topics will be discussed by such
men as B. T. Galloway, department of
agriculture, Washington, D, C.J Prof.
C. M. Weed, New Hampshire experi
ment station; Hon. E. Fornow, depart
ment of agriculture, Washington, D.C.;
P. M. Kelly, ;t. Louis, Mo.; Luther
Burbanks, Santa Rosu, Calif, and
others. Discussions of such subjects
by any of these men will bo of great
benefit to all.
The society encourages general exhi
bitions of fruits, but especially new va
ritics and new classes of fruits. The
fruitgrowers of Oregon that Wring fruit
for exhibition purposes, and to be pass
ed upon by a Vmunlttee from this so
ciety, should conform to the following
rules, as laid down by the society: -
Six specimens of a variety shall con
stitute a plate, except In the case of
novelties. . , .
No duplicate must appear in any col
lection, and only choice specimens
placed on exhibition.
To entitle a new fruit to the com
mendation of the society, it must pos-j
sess (at least for the locality for which
it is recconimended) some valuable
quality, or combination of qualities, in
in a higher degree than any previous
ly known variety of its class and sea
son. ,
To insure examination by special
committee, all fruits must be correctly
and distinctly labeled.
A complete list of varieties must be
delivered to the secretary.
All fruit placed upon the tables for
exhibition must remain in charge of
the society till the close of the exhibi
tion, and not sooner removed without
express permission.
Outside of a display, such as would
come under the above , head, a large
general display should be made of dried
fruits, apples, nuts, etc.
The object is to show something more
than samples, and impress upon the
visitors the fact that these fruits are
produced by the carload. .
A Trial at Mt. Hood.
Mt. Hood, Or., Jan. 14, 1895. Editor
Glacier: By complaint of Freden
burg Bros., Lorenzo Francisco was ar
rested for trespass and brought before
Justice : Wishart for trial. . George
Wishart acted as lawver for plaintiff;
John Dimmick pleaded the cause of
the defendant. The evidence produced
was as follows: It seems Fredeuburg
Bros, notified Francisco that three
months' rent was due them. The rate
of rent was $4 a month, making $12
due. Francisco in his testimony said.
they had not ordered him from the
place since the notice was sent him,
If this is the case, then Francisco was
not tresspassing but was a renter.
However, Justice Wishart fined .him
$15, aud iu default of payment of fine
sentenced him to seven aud one-half
days iu jail.
The justice ordered Constable Mo
Kamey to take charge of prisoner. As
the roads were almost impassable 011
account of the deep snow, the prisoner
was kept about a week at the home of
the constable. - Doubtless Francisco
was not displeased at getting his board
and bed free at one of the neighbors.
At lust it was decided to start to The
Dalles. A box was mounted on a pair
of snow-shoes and Francisco was
mounted on the box. Constable Mc
Kamey, L. Toniilson and J. Wishart
ucted In the capacity of reindeer or
horses and proceeded to . draw this
oddly constructed sled.. After travel
ing a few miles in this manner they
abandoned their sled and put the pris
oner on a horse and proceeded to Hood
River. ........
.-' It seems every time the Bled tipped
the least bit, Francisco would roll off
in the mow and lay there until they
picked him up aud placed him on the
seut of this novel cutter. After awhile
this got to be tiresome, and they con
cluded they could travel with more
speed and less trouble if they placed
their prisoner 011 a horse. As Fran
cisco hud 110 desire to roll off the horse,
they at last reached Hood River. From
Hood River they proceeded to take the
offender to The Dalles. Imagine their
consternation when the authorities re
fused to put the prisoner in jail! All
their trouble and time 'Was spent for
naught, not, to mention the week's
board and lodging. . .
It is advised that the representatives
of the law study more thoroughly the
laws they represent.
Correspondent.
Francisco was met upon the streets
of The Dalles by au acquaintance of
whom he requested the luan of two
bits 'o get something to eat, Buying he
intended to foot it back to Hood River
011 the railroad track, but was afraid
he couldn't make it on accouut of be
ing badly ruptured. The acquaintance
took him before County Judge Blake
ley, and when the judge heard his
story and saw the condition the man
was in physically, he gave him an or
der for a week's board aud ordered that
the law firm' of Huntington & Wilson
investigate the case and flud who was
responsible for seuding the man to The
Dalles. Ed.
" Tlio Senatorial Auction Block.
Advocates of the legislative caucus
as a means of electing United States
senators are doing much to force the
early adoption of a sixteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution,': mak
ing senators elective by the people of
the states. ' "
The betrayal of the people in Nebras
ka is the first lesson of the .new year.
In that state the people expressed their
opposition to railroad government by
the defeat of the railroad candidate for
governor. The caucus has just declar
ed that the general solicitor of the
Union Pacific shall go to the senate
from Nebraska. " V
West Virginia will soon elect Steph
en B. Elkins. There is talk of Elkins'
defeat, but it will result in nothing.
Elkins is probably as well assuredpf
his election now as Stewart of Nevada
was when, just before his first elec
tion to the senate, he was asked to ex
plain his evident confidence in his suc
cess. Stewart said that the election
was his as much as the span he was
driving and for which he had paid a
fancy price.
It is as true now. as when Lincoln
first told the story which has passed

hog stealing can trust to a jury of men
who have had some of the pork. '
How long can this condition contin

abolition of the house of lords as be
ing an obstruction to popular govern
ment. But the lords do not buy their
seats in expectation of selling public
rights to private interests as a means
of making office pay more than it costs.
It is strange that any honest American
in view of past and present experiences,
should defend the senatorial auction

AMU U.VUA JU;.IIV.Ujl
Before the ad vent of the white man
these people believed that the earth
was fiat with a circular form, and was
suspended in space, and sheltered by
the heaven or sky in the shape of a
hollow hemisphere.- The sun was re-.
gurded as the father and the earth the
mother of all things that live and grow,
but as they had been married .a long
time, and had become the parents of
many generations, they were called
the greatgrandparents.. As far as I
can judge, the moon seemed to be their
servant; at least, she was regarded to
watch, together with her brothers, the
stars, over the sleeping universe, while
the sun came down to rest with his
family. In the thunder-bird they be
lieved God had a warrior who presided
over the most powerful elements the
storm and fearful cyclone. This sym
bolic creature is depicted as an impa
tient and wrathy god of war, at whose
appearance, even the eversmillng
grandfather, the sun, hides his face.
Lin the realms 0 water the whale is the
symbolized chief of the finny tribes.
In every great lake the Sioux imagines
a huge fish as ruler of its waters.
Yet none of these possess the power
of speech. The Great Mystery had
shown them some truths denied to
man, but he did not trust them fully,
therefore he made them dumb. They
can only show to man some supernatu
ral things by signs or in dreams,as, for
instance, to foretell future events or ex
plain the use of certain powerful reme
dies. The savage holds that the key of
Heaven is vestett in tne visible pnenom
ena of the universe. All creatures, save
man, are assigned to a peculiar paradise,
in which there is a forbidden fruit,
namely, the apple of speech and reason
ing. Hence the animals and inanimate
things are exempted from sin. Thus it
is that rocks, trees and rivers are sur
rounded by au atmosphere of grandeur,
beauty and mystery. .Nature is the in
terpreter of the Great Mystery, and
through her man is convinced of truth.

that it is the empty wagon that rattles
most when in motion. The noise of
