SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1805.
The situation at Salem remains un
changed ; Mr: Dolph receiving 42 votes,
the balance of the republicans vote
scattering, and democrats and pop
ulists vote for men ot their own par
ties. Two patients in Good Samaritan hos
pital in Portland are being experi
mented upon with the new germ the
ory for cancer." The doctors in charge
sent to New York for germs of erysip
elas.. JPliese 'germs will, it is conjec
tured, eoii !iteract,-.the, effects of the
cancer g'vno.,,. So far the results have
been highly satisfactory and the pa
tients, are. on the road to recovery.
The Dalles 'Chronicle- suggests the
, name of our fellow townsman, Hon,
E. L. Smith, ; for the consideration of
our legislators as an available candi
date for', United 'States senator. We
rise to second the' nomination, it is
plain enough that Mr. Dolph cannot
be re-elected, and it is time for his sup
porters to Te casting about for a;' man
they can support'and f.wfio wlll draw
votes from the bolters. Mr. Smith is
In accord with Mr. DblptTon the fin
ancial quttetton; and': With' his party on
the tariff .iquestioh,::and Is known
throughout the state as' a friend 'to an
open riverv with no .affiliation-With
corporations or monopolies. His elec
tion would be a just tribute to Eastern
Oregon. While speaker of the house of
representatives in the Oregon legisla
ture, six years ago,' Mr. Smith voted
for- the memorial to congress asking
that senators be elected by a direct vote
of the people. His election would give
us, with Senator Mitchell's, two votes
n the senate on giving the people the
right to choose their senators, a ques
tion that should be uppermost in the
minds of the people of Oregon just at
this time, when- a legislature selected
to elect a certain man cannot succeed
Jn electing-any one. .
0. A. R. antl Y, R. C. Entertainment.
Editor Glacier: Among the many
entertainments given of late in our
city, the one in connection with the
Installation of officers of the G. A. R.
and W. R. C, on the 26th hist., is well
wortny or mention. The programme
and banquet were under .the special di
rection of the W, R, C, which is rea-
Bon sufficient to insure its success and
met the approval of those present. Mu
sic was rendered by Miss Annp Smith
as organist, assisted by Mrs.- Georgia
Rand, Miss Callison, Mrs. Woodward,
and Messrs. Watt, LaFrauce, Rand,
Husbands and Nickelsen. Solos, duets
and quartettes.. were rendered" in a
spirited and acceptable manner. Mrs.
Woodward recited "Barbara Fritchie,"
and after repeated encore, favored the
audience with the same in broken German.-
The following officers for Canby post,
No 18, G. A. R., were Installed for the
ensuing year by Post Commander A.
S. Blowers: C J. Hayes, commander;
Thomas McDonald, senior vice com
mander: Josenh Frazler. senior vice
commander; L. Henry, "quartermaster;
J. H. Dukes, surgeon; W. H. Perry,
day; D. G. Hill, officer of. the guard;
A. H. Blowers, adjutant. . ,-.., ..
After the installation of these officers
the W. R. C. installed their officers
elect; Mrs.'Dr, Brosius presiding as in
stalling officer. ' It is but a merited
honor when we say the lady performed
her part admirably, as did the others,
A number of tne old soldiers were
heard to say, "They beat us;" while
The banquet was served at the Lan
. gille house, and some eighty old sol
diers, W. R. C. and friends were made
glad by the good things provided. May
all live to. enjoy many such-occasions.
The Grand Army and Relief Corps
are starting out with; good prospects,
and we hope it may be the best year of
pitr organization, new members;; added
and 'old ones' revived, "and a new im

i The Dishonest Commission Men. '
The Glacier . is indebted to Mr.
Peter Cordes for a copy of the San
Francisco Call which tells of the estab
lishment in Chicago of a depot for the
sale of California fruit and wine. The
gentlemen engaged in this enterprise
are large fruit growers in California
who hope to overcome the difficulties
under which the fruit growers of that
state have labored to secure a liberal
market for their fruit and an adequate
return for the same. One of them, in
discussing the fruit swindlers of the
East, said:
; "I knew a grower who sent a lot of
plums to Chicago for which returns
were made to him at the rate of 55
cents a box. He subsequently learned
from authoritative sources that bis lot
of fruit had in reality been sold for
$1.25 a box. The scheme which the
commission men had worked in this
instance is the same that is practiced
in almost all other cases. . It was a
simple process, and necessitated only
the selection of the poorest fruit in the
lot, selling it for what it would bring
and. -making returns to the 'grower
upoh that basis. The good-fruit which
was-" retained was placed in cold storage
and disposed of as the market .would
justify and at approximately high fig
ures." -.
,, V'l know myself," said another gen
tleman, "that California fruit doesn't
get a fair show in the Chicago market.
I recollect one trip I made to that city,
during which I, as usual, visited the
auction rooms. The auctioneer would
put up a batch of California fruit, and
with but' little preliminary work knock
it down to an invisible purchaser. Sub
sequently I learned that it was the
custom of certain private fruit auction
eers who did not receive products from
our state for sale on commission to drop
into these commission houses and bid
in the fruits privately, then, taking
them to their own establishments, sell
them over again at auction. Hera we
have an instance of two middle-men
receiving a profit, all of which,of
course, comes out of the producer's
pocket."

Special Government Agent Price
has given out the following Informa
tion in reference to the parasitic fungus
prevalent on apple trees from Central
California to Middle Oregon and north
to British Columbia on the west side of
the Cascade mountains: ' '
Recent investigations, conducted at
this laboratory, following those made
in uregon ana Washington, nave dis
closed the fact that the apple disease
prevalent throughout the western por
tion of these states, and which affects
the trunk and branches around the
apple trees, is largely due , to an action
of a parasitic fungus, the life history of
wnicn is now oemg studied. The de
partment recommends that' the dis
eased trees be thoroughly sprayed with
rsoraeaux mixture, special care oeing
taken to treat frequently those parts
affected the preceding season. The
treatment should invariably be pre
ventive and not curative. The Bor
deaux mixture is best adapted for use
during the rainy season, and is made
with 10 pounds of lime and 6 oounds
of copper sulphate to 45 gallons of
water. .
All persons- knowing themselves to
be in possession of a copy of "Triumph
ant Songs No. 3," belonging to the

quested to bring them in, as the pur
chase of a few more copies is contem

A Warning to Cows.
As a warning to eareless cows who
may read this paper or hear of it from
somebody else, and also as a pointer to
those who employ cow help about their
establishments, I relate the following
story for publication: '
About a week ago "I was returning
home in the evening and stopped to
warm my.jfeet at. the great blazlng.flra
in the fire-place of a neighbor. Altera
lull in the conversation I whipped out
a copy of the Glacier (which I usually
cerry in my pocket to ward off sporadic
diseases) and began to read aloud. some
of the items from the old home.-. I soon
came to the notice about Charley Rog
ers' cow having lost A. portion of her
tongue. - - ' , : '
As soon as 'I had finished reading
the story, an elderly lady of the old
school, who had. been intently listen"
Ing to all the 'reading, quickly turned
out the remaining ash of a finished
pipe of tobacco with that deliberate
and characteristic tap on the jam which,
has its own voice so. definite that those
familiar can recognize1 it any where-i
without the accompaniment of 'sight.
and thus unloosed her tongue; V, '
"Jjst lissen,;.to. laeriiow.i.wiirQijf
.When I wuz a little, gyurl pbqu&p
high, (holding her hand about three
feet from the floor) my poppy had a
black cow. : Her right name wM Betts,
but us children 'called 'lier
cause she wuz so black,
any critter could, a bia.'.bladke'r.' .' Shel
tooK the holler horn one tim;and pop.
sawed her horns off. - After, that she
most generally went by the name of
'old Sawd Horns;' and we called her by
that name all the, time. She 'wnz' the
best cow that ever , lived, . I reckon.
Bless my life, I believe- a baby -could
ov laid down between her feet without
any danger whatever.-. Us children.'
could jest go up and rub and pat her
anywhere, and she'd stand perfectly.
still like she liked -it:-, And for. milk,:
you could jest set one of these big wood
buckets under her and milk' it'' briiii
full, and 'twould run over. And slch
milkj-too; we 'don't get any 6ich now
adays. ;iBut we had to kill her at last,.
and I tell ye, it' mighty nigh broke us
all up. It seems like one can't' have
anything real good Without it has to be
taken away from us jest When we seem
to need it most. I reckon it must be
all right, though, or 'twouldn't be so.
Well, I'm going to tell you a story
about that cow. One morning Jerusha
(she , was my sister) , went out to milk
her, and almost before I can tell it she
ran back, and I'll declare to goodness I
thought her eyes were about-to bust
outen ther sockets, 'Come quick,! flhe
said, like she wuz frightened near to;
death. We follered her out,; on ' the
run, and bless my life; I never saw a
mortal: human that 'looked-feo much
like they'd lost all their friends asthat
cow. I never seed k person look so!
woe begone and sad as that critter did.
'What upon this, round earth is the
matter?' we nearly all exclaimed at
once. We tried to see if she would eac,
and fixed up every kind of a tempting
mixture wa could think ov, but it,
weren't any use. She jest stood there
and moved her mouth round occasion
ally and looked like she was ready to
cry all the time. : .
"Poppy came out, and after watch-,
ing her a few moments, he pulled her,
mouth open, and O my! about this
much by her tongue had been cut off
jest as slick as if it had been cut with a
sharp knife." As the woman made
the last remark she' placed one hand
across the center of the other to indi
cate how large a slice of the tongue had
been clipped off, remarking as she did:
"It inust ov bin fully three or four
inches." ; i:--. '.y' .,; .,; ' y'
Continuing herstory, she said: "All
day long we wondered , and wondered
who could have been so mean as to cut
off the cow's tongue. In the evening
one of the boys went in the .log stable
to feed. the horses and found the piece
of tongue jest below the' feed; trough.
Looking above the trough' in a crack
between the logs lie found some' fresh'
dried blood. When he told us we all
went out to see it. We could then unr.
derstand it all and how it happened,
We had a wicked biting horse that was
always trying to bite i every persorrarrd
everything that came, about him .wbei ,
he was eating. We had often seen the
cow reaching her tongue-through "the
crack to try to get 'some of the hajfiiM 1
corn that was fed o.tb'e'liors.''Sti'tJ
whole matter wuz plain-to us.jtben
The cow had been trying to get the
horse's feed, and he had grabbed her
tongue in his vicious way and clinched
it tight, and as she must have pulled
back with all her might, ov course the
piece of tongue had to come off. We
never could get the cow to eat aiiy
more. She kept , dwindling away and
going idown until : poppy killed her to
get her out ov her misery." . 1
