A point was attempted to be made, also, concerning the sluggishness of the Indon market and its waiting" condition. The fact is that the first sale of Oregon hops last year to lm dou dealers, was made only a few da vh lH'fore the middle of October. The Kritlsh dealers as is well known, biiy only from samides. Hundreds of these have lieeu started to London within the past ! several days. The time It takes them to reach. London i Tom-fecii days.

Ringer Hermann and family Went to Portland Tuesday night, ami on this Thursday morning' Mrs. Her mann, daughter and son. Miss Mabel ami Klltert. left the metroiolis for their home at Washington city, ; in orih-r that Hie latter might enter tschool at Its owning and take up bis studies again with his class. - Mr. Hermann will remain a month or tuore In the statt. Uoseburg Plain dealer. The Port hi ml Telegram and Orrgo 3iian seem, more than usually agitattil over Hon ltinger Ilermamrs annual homecoming, this tall. They have lueu constantly casting their senato rial searchlights over the political hor oscope and profess to see naught but a 1k1i1 Silhouette of tin popular Com missioner of the Henernl -Jjiud Otlice '.ooniiiig up on the horizon, a ud this fact is what is agitating a few politi cians Mini newspaiers of tlie northern part of -.the- state. There is no deny ing 'the fact that Mr. Hermann is a big man In Oregon jwditics and in the estimation of Oregon iMople and he has a--pretty gol past riK-ord and standing nt Washington. I. C, to back np his iiopularity and Influence. lKth at home and abroad. This paper knows nothing of Mr. Hermanu'H can didacy or iMilith-al ambitions, but Is aware of tlie fact that bis many friends throughout the state are very mcUvi ami are persistent in tlielr ani- lbition to make hi in our next U., K i Senator. Koseburg I'hiindt-aler. The IMaindealer gos on to quote nn a rt hie from t he Evening Tekgra m of Port hind, in gvh icli the. assertion Is made that one t'oloiiel Ilosa, of South ern Oregon, is reputed to have made the 'official declaration recently of Mr. Hermann's candidacy for the Senate. This Oolonel Uosa is represented as a close friend of Mr, Hermann. While Mr. Hermann himself has disavoweil bis eaudidavy. it is well understood In Southern Oicgou that the utlerancts of the Iloseburg Plainde:vJer Inregard thereto are Inspired. The fact ' of his Intention of lvmainlng in Oregon dur ing" the beat of. the h1 it lea 1 cam paign. Is enough lo fonnect bim with the ambition which he so anxiously announced and urged during the! ses giott of the legislature of 'iSIVs when be graciously anthorized his lieuten- tanta In Oregon to make any promise they mlght(see fit to nieitilwrs of the Legislature in return for their votes. .There Is no question of Mr. Her mann candidacy J for tlie Senate so far as hi desire; and ambition are concerned, but It I a matter of very slight moiiient .considered in the light j of any desire on tlie part of the ineni- , ber of the legislature or of the peo- 1 pie of Oregon to transfer him from 1 ' .' ne l,. tienerat i-i uu unice to the United State Senate. In the Roseburg riajndealer article the statement Is prominently set forth that Mr. Hermann I a factor of great Influenee In, Oregon polities, and that the Republican victory in Oregon last June was largely due to his efforts. Thi is likewise inspired. : Fine Job pnnnsc. Statesman Office. fDKAB, BOY" LETTKESNO. 5.J 5fy Dear Boy Vou ask why the Dniocrat! Innist that lmierlallsm and militarism are the -paramount lssne of thUVampalgn f . .. ; ; - i The renRoa. uiy son, I very plain. Our Democratic J riendj . are pushing these things to the front because there isn't anything else for them to talk altout thi year. All-the rest of their imwder has - leen bnrnt once and wt.n't even fizzle , thia year. 4 Their platform denounces the Plngley tariff bill, but they do not wish to meet us leforo the' people on that Issue. The bard times under the Wilson bill and the present prosperity under bur pro tective tariff furnish an object lesson which makes it rmhill business to ar gue five trade thisjrear. Their platform also denounces the gold standard legislation and demands free coinage1 of silver at the ratio of Hi to K But that; powder was burnt four years ago and events have shown the falsity of their predictions. They are like the boy who when beaten, playing marbles saj's "Let's play something else." Beaten on tariff and the money question. tJiey want to play "militarism" awhile. Their lack of iiuy other Issue Is responsible for the conjuring up of the siMctre of "inqM'i'ialisui." ! But whih they are not talking alMiut free trade or free silver, the people are not going to foigetxthat they are t In free trab and free silver party. Anil, as Mr. .Lincoln use4 to saj that re minds nie of a little .story.. r One of our ex-ellent missionaries and his good wife went to au island in Polynesia alxtut fifty year ago. They stayed there sixteen years and their work was wonderfully successful. They found a tribe of savages. They left a tribe of civilizel. Christian peo ple, ind istrloiis and 'j temperate, "chthel and in tle'ir right minds." The incident which illustrates my point Mcurred luring the first year of fheir residtnce on the island. A chief clothed in sunshine and nolhing else called on the missionaries. They treated him politely, but as he left the l ouse the missionary followed him ami said: "Chief, we are" glad to see yon and want you to come again, but In my country men wear clothes and. uiy wife is not aceustotmd to see men without clothing. The next time you come to see us, won't you please put, on a little clothing, .one or tvo gar ments at ieast5j'i i . ;- t : !

By the way, speaking of "militar ism. I advise j-ou always to watch with suspicion any man or any party that Is afraid of the United States army. Our army- is a volunteer army of as gallant men as tlie sun ever shone tiMn.- TIjey are our defenders and the protectors of our'persons aud proiMrty. I lard-working, uncomplain ing, brave and faithful, they follow the flag through summer's sun and winter's storms, through tropical jun gles and the dangers of fever and of battle for you and me and for their country" sake. If a man is a good, law-abiding citizen he has no reason to lie afraid of an American soldier. I was one, my father, was one, my grandfather was one, and my great grandfather was one, and I feel like inking tiff niy hat to every soldier I nie'k. And whenever I find a man who Is afraid of tht "tyranny" of our gal- Naut little army. I feel like asking him what he has lMen doing. It Is a small army for so great rt nation, and the iiilUHbu tio.i ,f "niilitarisiu" in this cauquiigu shows that our Democratic friends are hard up for an Issue. YOFU F All lint. A BHKSIDKXT FOB FME1MJEN- CIBS. Whatever may have been the exwe tations tif the American people four years ago in regard to the duties of the present Administration many Iinprtrt airt event, have come to pass that were entirely unanticipated. Though the fact was unknown, the nation wa verging ii)oii many new and ditlicult problems of state. If was, 'uneonsci pusly, ni the threshold of a period of warlike comlitkms, and since it swung open without warning, the blood of our soldier ha lnen shel in Cuba, Poi to Bico, the' Philippine nnd Chi na. Nobody talked of t-oming wars In the campaign of 1K!K. The name of the Philippine wa unmeutioned. The Idea that an American army would be totlay In Ft kin and Tieu Tsln would have lMen considered a wild flight of faiwy.

The platform did not promise? to strike down with arms the oppression of Spain in thi continent, to exiand the limits of the nation by a just treaty and to send an army to (,'hlna to rescue our' citizen In ex treme peril.

When a race bor distinguishes himself by winning some iniortant coutet 'one of the llrst provision nide for-hi m is an Indlvldttal trunk containing an outtlt: of clotblnjr and toilet 'appliance of all sort. Beside this, s-ieclal attendants are selected to look after hi comfort aud cleanliness.

Whn one olwerves tin care they receive and the nicety with which they are washed, dried, brush ed and coiuIhmI. and the watchful care that Is lestowed Upon theni a they ft4. one realize tlutt they represent thousand of dollar In themselves and In their iosslble winning of the future. ' Every great race horse lias his trunk. The trotting horse Star Point er lias almost a many trunk as a summer girl, but the average horse ha only one trunk, very strongly built, marked with bis name and-provided with a special lock. Each ani mal has his own basins.- pans and pall for the toilet. Ids -feeding uten sils, brushes aud ioml. The pans are usually of agateware, plainly marked with the horse's name ami are never used by any other horse. A face lKrse has many sets of towels of various grades, and bis blankets of variou -weights are for all weathers. These are marked and numbered, and are kept beautifully clean and well aired. The Indongiugs of the horse are carried about in his trunk during periods of travel and while he Is vis iting In a ; strange stable. liesides all this luxury every great ra-e horse nowadays must have a jewel case, and. with age and success, the collection frequently becomes very valuable. Iu the casket, which is a compartment of tlie trunk, are kept the various trinket presented by admirers. These consist largely of article of wear, such as bridles fin ished in silver and gold, silver chain ed and mounted halters, blinkers with valuable settings, and combs and brushes mounted In handsome style. These things, although rarely used, and often of great value, are never kept till view at tlie homes of the otvners and trainers, but are invaria bly carried about on all his travels. When at home there are cases and special receptacles for them in the Stable. Tin horses travel in parlor cars spe cially constructed " with a view to hor.ve comfort, are tended as carefully as babies and are almost, always lov ed by their trainers and stable loys. espeekilly when their dispositions are grKMl, i and- tlie ugly-tempered race horse is the excetion. to the general rule. When they- win a great race they are petted and flattered to snch an exteut that-'were It not for "their pi-overbial horse sense their heads would lie completely turned. TO PREVENT DECAY. Wood Preserver Used ry Uncle Sam on Yamhill River. Work. Merita of Avenarius Carbolineum Recognized by National, State and Municipal Govern - mcnts. The fame of Avenarius Catfbolineum has steatlily extended, as tlie only Ikhis 1hk preserver of wood, since it dis covery iu Oermany thirty years ago. "It ha stood all tests of cuuiafe, soil and water and steadily lived down all pre tended rivals. Today It U not only em ployed in all countries for rue preser vation of wood ustl for household ar ticles such as houses, barn, fences, etc.. Jut tin; national government, both of Eiumk nnd America, have reeog Jiized its value in saving public con structions from decay. Following their example cities and counties have also ndoptcU avenarius carbolieum for bridges, pavements, C-tc, aud the lead ing ship builders and railroad compa nies have slKHvn their faith in its .mer it by treating ship tlm"lers, cars, tele graph poles and ties with -tlie same never failing preventative against cli matic decay jand reiweiou wood boring vermin liotlv'of land ami water. . Great Itodirs move- slowly, and only act after mature del literal ion. It may therefore be safcii stated that jrovern mtnts and corporations did not employ a;venarius caTloIineuin until fully con vinced of its money saving as well as wok1 prt-sorvlug qualities. Private in dividual desirous of lengthening tlie life of wood work and at the same time cunailing exH'nsts. need not fear to follow tlie precedents establishHl. Recent kx'al examples proving the truth of the above statements are not wanting.
