It might be of Interest to those "kickers" against' the Oregon regiment being mustered out, at San Francisco to know that many! of the volunteers have sent considerable amounts of tleff money to relatives at home and tills contrary to those .'who said that all of the' money would be squandered In the Golden Gate city. It was the .intention of Mr. Allen, the manager of the: big evaporator in Salem, to make changes In the plant, doubling its capacity; but he has, put this off, on account of ; the short crop of prunes. With a favorable season next year, not only this evaporator will have to be doubled in capacity, but' most of the- farm dryers will need the same extension, .and many new ones will be requlrejd, to take care of all the surplus. j It cost the Southern FfclEc railroad about $l,f-K,000 inoie for operating exinses for the yer ending June 30, 1899. than for the preceding twelv-; months.

It Is jm Jn Oregon, But it needs to grow a great deal more, for, even wt the high prices, fresh eggs, are already scarce In our markets. ' And there are unlimited markets in i distant parts calling for our eggs. We know of a great many people who are going into the poultry business In the Willamette valley. If they will work hard, they will succeed, sure. Albany ia, to get the big sawmill. The cltlsen of that city donate the site or rather Ihe 112,000 required to pur chase the site. The subscribers to the subsidy are to pay not a cent until the mill is In operation, and employing 400 to 600 hand, and until 1230,000 shall have been Judiciously expended in Its construction. What a, boom Salem would have if she could get an addi tional manufacturing concern employ ing 400 to S0 bands! And she would donate a $12,000 site therefore most wUrlngiy. There are Indications of a coming boom In Albany.

An Interesting quesllor. was raised in a Miiil-n county court during the past week. Whilo the ; ihe ry of the law In Oregon, us in most of the other states, la gainst ;cnt tenancy, It seems that our supreme court has 'recognized the - validity of estates by he entirety. lht is. a man and bis wife may receive a deed in Joint ten ancy, or by the ntirely, in specific terms, and this will be held valid, la that case, the survivor will be the aole owner. The estate I essentially, a life estate, as applioj to the one who is the first to cie. This being truo, the question has been raised, "Has a wifj in Oregon fcoding with her hunband an estate by the entirety the right to mcrlgag her estate without her hus band joining?" And will such a mort gage attach and become a lien on the whole esUittf after death of the hue band? At common law, a wife was not a pein in law. Her legal iden tity a as swallowed up and merged during coverture (marriage) in that of her. husband. Many of the theorbo cf th common law have, in the ex treme conservatism' of ' legal matters. been perpetuated. We find them run ning throughout tho vbole fabric of our tocial po.lcy. We ,1-elu-ve it has generally been held in Oregon that a wife cannot glvt a good deed e,en to her fepatale property without her huct-and JMning. This la under the theory of the common law that( the wife is a leg-Hi ward of the husband, Many of these dlaabilnl-s of the wife, that have been handed down through custom, have been swr-j t away by stutute in the various stutes. .The ijties lion that has ben 'raised here is on- of intei-f-t. We understand that es tates by thi? entlnty have become fli.itc common in this part of tieg-n, since the decision declaring them valid iig made. We believe it was handed down by Judge Waldo when he w,as (in tl.e supreme bench.

(From Dailj, July 20th) : r Attorney-General LX It N. Black burn recently received a letter from J. W. Hobart, D. P. Burton and A. B. Alexander, a committee appointed by the county Judges' and assessors' con vention, asking for his opinion on the following question: "Are notes, sured by mortgages, sub ject to assessment-and taxation when, held by resident owners?" Mr. Blackburn In giving his opinion calls attention to section 1 article 9 of the constitution, and of section 2723. 2731 and 2732 of Hills Ann. Laws. The section of the constitution quoted" is as follows: 1 "The legislative assembly shall pro Tide by law for uniorm and equal rate of assessment and taxation; and shall prescribe such regulations as shall secure a Just valuation for taxation of all property, both real and personal, excepting such only for municipal, educational, literary, scientific, .reli gions or charitable purposes as may be si eclally exempted by law". " tHe holds that no property, other than that mentioned in section 2732. is exempt from assessment, and taxation, and that notes, whether secured ! by mortgages or not, are nowhere mention ed as exempt, but, on the contrary, are made the subjects of taxation by sec tions 2729 and 2731, and says: "They can not, therefore, be exempted be cause assessors refuse to assess! them." Continuing Mr. Blackburn says: "A note is simply written and prima facie evidence of indebtedness,! and a mortgage given to secure such indebt edness is only an incident of the debt. The mortgage create only a lien upon the property described in It. The in terest, which the mortgages has' in the property, is simply the equitable" right to foreclose by proper proceedings in a. court of equity and to sell the property for the purpose of paying pro. tanto the debt thereby secured." After quoting several supreme court decisions bearing on the .question, the opinion continues: "There can be no doubt, therefore, under the constitution of tt?;s state prescribing the mode of assif ssrrient and taxation, and definitely pointing out the personal property subject by the legislative assembly for the pur pose of carrying Into effect the pro visions of the constitution in respect thereto, that notes are required to be assessed by the county afses9ors pf the several counties. ' "Section 2741 of Hills - Ann. Laws, among other things, provides as fol lows: 'Every person, except as pro vided in the succeeding section (2742) shall be assessed In the county In which he resides when the assessment is made for all taxable personal property owned by him'. . , "The succeeding section (2742) relates only to certain classes of personal property therein enumerated, but does not include notes or mortgages or in debtedness of any kind whatever. "It thus appears that not only the statute of the state prescribes, but tht declslons of our supreme court srlso declare, that notes and accounts niust be assessed for taxation. If the debtors are solvent, and that they must be so assessed In the county In which the owner resides. It Is the duty, there fore, of the assessors of the several tcunties to assess personal property of this character to the owners thereof who are residents of their respective counties." IMPOUTANT MILK. (From Experiment S- tat Ion of Kansas State Agricultural College.) j Kindness Is an eTictent aid . Iiv in creoxing milk yield and costs nothing The more a milker can make bis cow love him as the loves her calf. .th more milk she wilt yield to him. In vestigations show that rt is pr.ibable that a considerable portion of the milk Is secreted during the operation ! of milking, especially the lich n ilk which comes last. Abuse and excitement reduce the secretion and not only low' er the quantity of milk given, but often lower the percntage of butter sfat Kindness and pelting: mak-t the cow conttntod and put her.nervons system la such a condition that the fullest yield is given. This is not the on'y cause, but it is proliably a chief cause, of the wide variation in butter fat sometimes shown In creamery ti-st. Hurrying cows, running them with dogs, beating them, or speaking roughly to them will reduce the' ylild of milk and per cent, of butter fat.

Corean Women Who Make a Business . ox Diving for the Pearl Oyster. A Brooklyn ma received a letter from a friend in Seoul, the capital of Corea describing a visit the writer had re recently paid to the large island I of Quelpaert, Just south of Corea and a part of that country. It appears that one of the main lines of business is diving tor the pearl oyster and that the diving operations are wholly mo nopolised by women. Here is an ex tract from the letter: "I think the most unique slrht I ever saw was the women divers at Qual- paeri. remaps you may ,have heard that only women divers are engaged In the pearl oyster fisheries thr Vw- err day I was there X saw a lot of tnem going out to their work or re. turning with the fruits of their quest under the sea They are not a very handsome crowd, but they have ft n apple figures, and can swim aa well vs any fish of tha deep Each wears very scanty bathing dress rffat lcoks " tnonga re mignt be made of gunny sack. Tied to a string around air waietg is gourd wtta gtopper In thi j neck cf It to kn ths watsr out. Tied to the'gourd is a -Utile bag. The third and last article of tha equipment is a sickle, which Is also fastened to tha waist and rests on tha back till the women get out to the fishing ground. "You might think that boats would be kept to carry these women out to their toil, but no, they work their pa sage and It Is a lesson . in the art of swimming to see them. They wade out a few yards and then breast the waves, moving seaward with long, quick strokes, and cutting the water like a Taclng shell. They swim out about half a mile. My favorite amuse ment was watching as much as I coull see of their subsequent operations through a glass. They would take oft the gourd and little bag and leave them floating around on the surface. Then, sickle Jn hand, down they would go head first, and I was told that they had to sink forty or fifty feet to the bottom. "About the time I made up my mind they would never be seen again alive, up they would come, sometimes right near where the gourd was floating and sometimes several rods away: They would put their oyster or two or thrse of them In the IHtle bag. take a few long breaths, t ami down they would go again, repeating the process until the bag was Ailed. It is said they will stay out for hours rather than return before they have all the oysters that can be crowded into the bag. Any stranger must admire them both for their splendid endurance and for their swimming. It's worth mort than all the tank performances you ever saw. "The sickles are used to cut away the seaweed at the bottom so that the divers may get at the stones and earth to which the oysters fasten themselves. A pearl is very rarely found, but when a diver captures the prize she thinks her fortune is made. The shell is used as mother of pearl and the oysters ar-. eaten in large quantities both on Hi island and on the mainland." Sun. STOPPING A STAMPEDE. The Secret of the Cowboy's Coolness in the Face of What Seemed Great Peril. "One of the slickest things J ever saw in my life," said a veteran army of ficer the other day, "was' a cowboy stopping a cattle stampede. A herd of about 600 or 800 had got frightened at something and broke - away pelhnell iwlth their tails in the air, and the bulls at the head of the procession. But Mr. Cowboy didn't get excited at all when he saw the herd was going straight for a high bluff, ' where they would certainly tumble down Into the canyon and be killed. You know that when a herd like that gets to going it can't stop, no mattter whether the cattle rush to death or not. Those In the rear crowd those ahead, and away they go. I wouldn't have given a dol lar a head for that herd, but the cow boy spurred up his mustang, made -a little detour, came in right in front of the herd, cut across their path at a right angle, and then galloped leisure ly on the edge of that bluff, halted an 1 lcoked around at that wild mass Of beef coming right toward him. He was as cool as a cucumber, though I ex pected to see him killed and was so excited I could not speak. "Well, sir, when the leaders had got within about a quarter of a mile of him I saw them try to slack up, though they could not do it very quickly. But the whole herd seemed to want to stop, and when the cons and steers in the rear got about where the cowboy had cut across their path I was surprised to see them stop and commence to nibble at the grass. Then the whole herd stopped, wheeled, Mraggled back and went to fighting for a chance to eat where the rear guard was. "You see. that cowboy had opene3 a big bag of salt he had brought out from the ranch to give the cattle, gal loped across the (herd's course and emptied the bag. Every critter sniffed that line of salt. and. of course, that broke up the stampede. But I tell you it was a queer sight to see that man out there on the edge of that bluff, quietly rolling a cigarette, when It seemed as If he'd be lying under 200 tons of beef In about a minute and a half," Chicago Record. A PROGRESSIVE RAILROAD. The Rio Grande Western railway. otherwise known as the "Great Salt Lake Route," is and has teen, since ha opening of the 'Ogden Gateway," the popular transcontinental route be twf.en the Pacific Northwest and the East. To add to Its popularity, ar rangements have been made to make ts train service and equipment super! or to any of its competitor a Already the running time of its several express trains has been cut down so that the asse ngers from Portland reach Chi cago in less than four days, and New York In less than five da vs. Effective May 1st., a perfect dining car service will be established. This will make the trip via Pilt Lake City the Ideal owe. To further add to the comfort of its patrons, handsome excursion tourist cars are being built for the run be tween Portland and Chicago, With the dliifr.g car service established and the new tourist cars running, there will be little to be added to make a oerfect ttatn.

Agricultural Department to fJssistir Building Up the Trade on This Coast. ' The following Is from the Seattle roet-Intelligencer and the same senti ment Is applicable to Oregon, so far as the handling of trade Is concerned: "Secretary of Agriculture James Wil son, who Is at the Ranier-Grand. will remain In Seattle for several days, or until he has seen every farmer from whom.it Is possible to get any Infor mation. So far he has met wth ex ceptional success, and has learned a great deal about Washington that the records of the department do not show. -- " ' "'I am very sorry to learn that out here in Washlnston you are importing a great deal of stun! that should be grown at home. he said In an Interview granted yesterday afternoon. You do not even make all the butter you use. That is no way to build up Washing ton and the Pacific i coast. The time has come when the Coast la in a posi tion to command the trade of the Ori ent and the Pacific. The only way to secure it Is to cultivate and deal In products this trade requires. In this work the department of agriculture Is anxious to ielp Washington. Instead of buying butter for home consump tion this state should be shipping thou sands of pounds of butter to the China sea. The conditions may not be ready, but with this industry started here a great trade would be held hi this state. Manila alone will takej all -the butter Washington can manufacture and put up In tin cans. ' " 'Now, I spoke of the sugar beet In dustry for Washington, yesterday. Do you know we are'paying out $100,0i0. C00 a year for suJrar? Why not keep that nney in this country? Two years a'o we bad. five suprar factories In the United States. Last year the number was Increased to nineteen, and . next "year there will be at least fifty. It will take 2C0 factories to supply the home demand. The Increase In num- j ber is wholly due to the fact that the department has inspected and dis tributed over twenty tons of seed to . encourage the growth of beets. This j crop would thrive in Washington. The jjplp is the best butter maker that could be fed to cattle, so that the two Industries can. be worked together. Millions of dollars of trade in butter alone await the Pacific coast as soon as it can supply the demand. The Pa cians Interviewed Is quoted as snyln.g: "As far as known, -chloroform and eth er have never taken effect on a healthy sleeping person without that person knowing tt Berth of these anaesthet ics are at first stimulating and invig orating in their effect, and will arouse a sleeping person. The entire system is excited and the heart beats .violent ly and fast. The use of either chloro form or ether, or any other anaes thetic, by burglars is absurd. It fre quently takes physicians with their various appliances from ten to. fifteen minutes to put a person under the in fluence of either of these anaesthetics, and often a patient will become so stimulated and active before the effect Is secured that It requires several strong men to hold him." The idea that the mere Introduction of chloro form into a room would cause uncon sciousness was derided aa absurd. Even if doors and windows were air tight. It would take several gallons of either anaesthetic so to fill a room with the heavy fumes as to affect a sleeper on a bed of average height. And the first effect would be, not deep sleep, but excited wakefulness. The changes are, then, that when any body claims to have been chloroformed by burglars there is something queer about the case. New York, Times. NOT TOO LATE. Portland. July 17, 1899 Editor States man: I, for one., believe that some unfriendly "Ingins" have been at work, or else, the Oregon soldiers would have been mustered out at home. Rut the powers, that be, have determined other wise, and, in the name of liberty, we must submit, but in doing eo we do not lose the right to keep ourselves in other directions. It la tint inn lit tn give the Oregon soldiers an honorable reception. To my mind the state capi tal is where this should take place. and the Oregon state fair grounds is the most appropriate spot for such a reception. It is clear to me. that, if the stat board of agriculture would undertake wis. ana make It a feature of the fair, two brlds as big as the.
