THE RIGHT THING.
- Cut up those large tracts of land near
the towns and thus make two blades
of grass" grow where one now grows.
It will do much for prosperity to any
section..; The closing up of the Brown
estate adjoining Gervais is paving the
way for a number cf small farmers and
the town cannot help but be benefitted
thereby. Let the good work go on
What is wanted is . even smaller hold
ings and consequently a more denser
population. Gervais Star. i
This is the correct thing. Gervais
is a good town now; but the popu'atio'n
of the place would be doubled; the
thrift of it quadrupled, and its attrac
tiveness as a place of residence in
creased ten fold if every farm in its
vicinity were cut up into small tracts,
of .ten to fifty acres- It would then
support -an electric' motor" line connect
ing with" Salem. - 1
RAISE MORE HOGS.
i
- . (
The statcmnt is made that farmers
in 'Eastern Oregon raise more-hogs
nhan the fanners of Western Oregon.
There is an advantage in feeding forty
cent wheat to hogs in the Willamette
valley. Some of our farmers are real
izing this fact. A gentleman who is
engaged in curing meats in a small
way in ..this city feays McMinnviUe
would be a splendid place to establish
a packing house. The one "thing need
ful it the necessary! capital, and there
"- plenty of money lying idle. I f its
owners could be induced to put it into
interpriscs like this it would be a great
deal better for the town and better for
the -capitalist. McMinnviUe Telephone-Register.

If the capitalists of the Western Ore
gon cities and towns, would, provide
packing ' establishments, the farmers
wmiW raise nnrc h'ogs. . Many thou
sands of dollars' cotdd. in that , way be
kept at home, and markets . could be
had for any surplus .in the Pacific ports
that are open and being opened tor the
commerce of our coast." Here is a field
that should be exploited, along with
poultry and -dairy products, by West
ern Oregon business men and farmers.

BRYAN COMING AROUND.
. Evidently Cel. Bryan is getting nerv
ous. There are too many democratic
expansionists, especially in the South,
to which both self-interest and the
memory of the old democratic policy
of annexation make the colonel's anti
expansion homilies unwelcome. 60
the- colonel, whose totem is the ee
rather than the uon. wngglea away
from himself, iso. to sneak. In an in
terview a 'Minneapolis be asserts that
he is an expansionist, and gives his
present reasons for objecting to the an
nexation of the Philippines:
T arn a firm believer in the enlarge
ment and extension of the limits of
she republic- I "don't mean by that the
extension by the addition of tontrg-
nous territory nor to limit myself to
that. Wherever there is a people in
telligent enough, to form a part of this
republic, it is my belief that they should
be taken in. Wherever there is a peo
ple who are capable of. having a voice
and a representation in this govern
ment, there the limits of the republic
may be extended. The Filipinos are
not such people. .The democratic par
ty has ever favored the extension ot
the limits of this republic, but it has
never advocaTed the acquisition of sub
ject territory, to be held under colonial
government
These were Col. Bryan's opinions a
week ago lait Wednesday. He may
have altered them since. He is retreat
ing nearly as rapidly as his admirer,
Aguinaldo. "Objection to the Philip
pines because they were not contigu
ous territory has been common among
the democratic anti-imtcrialists. The
New York Sun says, in regard to this:
It is our impression that the colonel
has himself urged this objection, but of
his speeches there is no end and "our
memory may be at fault At any rate.
he is now for expansion, contiguous
and uncontiguous. He wants to 'take
n any people, intelligent enough to
form a part, of the United States. ; This
is "rather5 vague, but shows a generous
mind." The colonel is willing to annex
ntelligence anywhere from Greenland
to Guinea, but the Filipinos arc not
intelligent enough to be taken in.
Very well, coloneh Then,' why have
you been making such a pother about
self-government for the Filipinos? '.'If
rhey; are not intelligent enough to be
capable of becoming a part of a self
governing republic, how can they be
ntelligcrtt enough to be an independ
ent self-governing republic? Is intelli
gence necessary to, seU-governmcnt
here and unnecessary in the Philip
pines? The colonel's bosom expands
for expansion, but he will pot consent
to holding the Philippines as subject
territory under a colonial government.
Phrases, mere words,- colonel f 1 Why,
the District of Columbia is subject ter
ritory and not unhappy at its lot;, and
colonial government' defines absolutc-
y nothing. Alaska would be governed
no differently if it were a colony. A
colony may have as much of the ap
paratus of self-gpvernment as it can
carry. But who tells the -colonel that
the Philippines are to be held under a
colonial government? He had better
wait ; until congress determines what
brm of government they shall have.
Whatever that form may be. it can
not be less republican than were the
beginnings of American rule ; n the
Louisiana territory. The colonel's
. . - . . 1.
campaign against expansion iscc.ns
bout over. We' shall not be at all
surprised to find him saying, in ia few
months, "while originally opposed to
the retention of the Philippines, I bow
to the will of the majority.' - An4 ini a
few months Tnore he will be asseverat-
ng that he annexed thorn himself. A
ery mobile man. the colonel.
The new possessions of the United
States are not to be colonics. I They
arc to be territories.'' This government
rs iiot obliged to gp to Europe to find
out bow to govern 'newly acquired ter
ritories, not ripe for statehood. The
United States has had for a hundred
a r '-- o
years a tetTKonal ssysrem, varying, in
form according to the needs of the- dit-
ercnt section to be governed. ITakc
Oklahoma, or New Mexico. , Takf any
of the states that wcre formerly terri
tories, m Take the; Indian territory;
Alaska; the District of Columbia. ,
Hawaii - is to ISvcn a. territorial
form of government. - Porto 'Rico will
have a similar form. Tlie Philippines
will have a government patterned 'after
the territorial style,-differing according
to its needs. "-"''. - , "
What is the use o confess (weakness
or ignorance on, the part of our govern
ment, when there is no "weakness or
show of ignorance?: Congress will, in
deed, take care of these matters, mak
ing such . provisions and laws as may
seem wise, and changing them to suit
the progress of each territory." I
ARM PRODUCTS IN FOREIGN
MARKETS J
The report of the 'department of ag
riculture, showing the annual value of
cr "cultural exports from the i United
Stated for the past five years, should
prove encouraging to American farm
ers. The output of cotton, wheat, corn,
meat products and'other products of
farm and plantation that went abroad
irt i3g4 was $636,6X1.747"; - In 1S98 ! tnis
red, or 31 stamps for cloth I of $jjiJ?71.1o. While th
binding, to Dr. K.V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y. I breadstuff in the latter year may be I
admitted to have been exceptionally;
large, owing to . untoward crop condi
tions abroad, the tendency was opwrrd
during the entire five-year period, show?
ing the United States to be the worlds
granary. ,, ' ..: '".- -.f- .
Gratifying as these figures are to the
farmer folk, they also contain a sugges
tion to the industries Chat furnish civil
ization's finished products. Where
American wheat, corn, cotton and meat
products go American .skill and produc
tiveness are advertised. While the. food
is purchased because the purchasers
must have it, those who buy and use
American food products are already
half-persuaded to buy other things .-- of
American production if offered a chance
to do so. The only reason they do not
is that, the agents of European manu
facturers press their goods upon buy--
ers' attention early and late, and the
American drummer has made his ap
pearance jn foreign markets only in
very limited numbers.
American food products have in
vaded the markets of the old world,
because the foreign peoples were hun
gry and must get food where they could.
They can buy other things elsewhere,
but they are ready to buy of American
producers if the latter can furnish as
good or better articles at the market
pneff. There has been a gratifying in
crease in our exports of manufactured
articles, in the last five years, and if our
manufacturers will follow up the open
ing which the reputation of American
agricultural products has made in for
eign markets the increase in this branch
of our export trade during the- next five
years will be something marvelous.

.Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney-
poisoned blood through reins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be ; traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
. If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy Is
soon realized. It stands the highest for' Its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases
and is sold on its merits
by all druggists in fifty

Mr. Bryan does not mean his vocal

them. He is a man of resources. If,
perchance, his jaws ever got tired, he
would talk through his hat.
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer well
says: the session of the Northwest
ruit Growers' Association, which has
just closed, was in all respects most io-
teresting and encouraging. The papers
read were full of practical facts relat-
ng to this great special industry, and
the interchange ot views and experi
ences is in itself a valuable education. It
is in such meetings as this that we see
at his best a representative of the men
who arc doing the work of the, world
Some man makes a stump speech at a
public hall in one, of our cities, spout
ing words about whatever promises to
bring him most, notoriety, aiA people
talk about him. But there is more
sound sense, more of the gospel of
honest work, more intelligence and in
formation, and in general more of the.
qualities that underlie good citizenship
in these industrial reunions than most
people are ever aware of. They are of
inestimable value to '' the occupation
which they represent, and tley have al
so their public aspect as admeasure of
the great mass of quiet work and help
ful living in the conntry."
STATE LOANS. The state school
land board yesterday approved a large
number of applications for loans, th;re
being fifteen of these requests, aggre

rejected, the total of these being $2850.

of the islands, but while the -president
and the secretary of state gave him an
attentive hearing, nothing definite could
be accomplished, then as the captain
had no credentials from' his; govern
ment.; There were other considerations
whicti prevented the president from tak
ing any decided step in the , matter.
Most- important of these was the neces
sity of ; obtaining an official refutation
of the report that Germany had secured
an option on one of the islands or on a
harbor in one of them. If suclf had
"been "the case, there would have -been

gether -to Copenhagen., The result of
Secretary White's . interview with; rep
resentatives of the Danish government
was that Denmark became .convinced
of the serious intention of this govern
ment with regard to, purchasing the
islands and Capt; Holmfeld was appoint-
ed omcial negotiator, v with mil' au

Carl Fischer-Hansen, who has been

yesterday against the reports that have
credited him with being one. of 1 the
agents of the Danish government' in
the matter. "I have been spoken pfi in
certain newspapers as the authorized
representative of the Danish govern
ment," he said, "and as having been one
of the persons present at an interview
in .Washington between the president.
Secretary Hay and Captain Holmfeld.
All of that is incorrect. In no sense
have I ever been acting as the author
ized agent of the Danish government.
My interest in the matter is simply that
of a private .Danish-American citizen.

' "I saw a ' man do a trick with' cards
onceV said Godfrey Ashton, of Atlan

although he assured me was wholly

it, has always rested in an unexplained

told him to . select a card in his mind
not to take it from the pack, but to tell
the other two men what card 1 it was.
He was then to shuffle the pack and
pass it to the other two men, who were
each to thoroughly shuttle it. ine last
man was then to place it on the floor,

the point. He swore it was"; a . trick,

The assertion that the Value of j the

than that of any other industry i will
doubtless be read with some surprise.
And yet sich an assertion is within the
facts. (Almost cottntless millions; of

In this section, scarcely any beed is

by the fact that Pendleton imported

The most radical remedy against
chicken lice and the best wcd-pre-
serving paint Is Carbolineum Avenari
ou. manufactured in Germany " only.
The farmers all over . tho country
count amongst their heaviest; expenses
to run the farm, the lumber bill. All
are undoubtedly interested to learn of
a medium to reduce the cam at least
to half. Its former cost. This medium
Is Carbolineum Avenarlous. a , wood
preserving paint based on 25 years' ex
perience. Many are of the opinion that
paint, tar and linseed oil will preserve
the wood against rot and decay. These
coatings only , form an alr-Ught cover,
but do not, destroy the albuminura
parts of the wood, which always start
the rot.. The coatings with above men
tioned materials prevent the evapora
tion of the wood and the consequence
ia dry rot. Carbolineum Avenarius, on
the contrary, penetrates deeply into
thefwrood and destroys all present de-
cay matters. The Carbolineum Avena
rius Is applied with a brush and- Im
parts a nice out brown color to the
wood, it Is ussd on the farm for paint
ing barns, granaries, shingles, alios
posts, bridges, chicken coops etc., and
all woodwork above and below .the
ground. Carbolineum Avenarius . Is al
ao the most radical . remedy ; against
chicken; lice. If you want plenty of
egg and healthy chicken, the chick
ens must be free from. lice, and ml tea.
Carboiinenm Avenarius will keep your
henhouse i free from this plagne. One
coat applied to the Liside of the chick
en coop will keep It clean from vermin.
Kerpsenlng and whitewashing, which
has to be repeated every month, I
done awy -with and expenses for sul
phur and Insect powder are saved.
