A H'OTIN'O CONTEST FOR THE BENEFIT OF SOME . IXJDGE. CHURCH OR SOCIETY COUPONS WILL BE PUBLISHED IN THE STATESMAN. " J! ; ? (From: Sunday Dally.) The Daily Statesman wanti a thous and new subscriber- ' That sounds easy. But how are they to be secured? There are several ways. One Is" to wait until the city and cbuntry J grow rnore, and they will come naturally. In fact the circulation of the Dally is larger now tKan , ever before. , But there ought to be a thousand more subscribers right now. or: within- the next few months. 1 On of the ways to get them, or part of them, that has been devised is to give away a $450 piano. This will be done, the grift; to be made about the first of May. ; The piano will come from the stock of 3. C. Will the well known dealer. It will be given to the society, lodge or church having the most votes. Coupons for Votes will be published in the Dally .Statesman.. i Thilano will be given absolutely free. FV "-.".- ':' So much-' for the orellmlnary an nouncement. " The details will ! be worked -out Within a few days, when the particulars will be announced and a conimencement made In the publica tion of the coupons. j n. - There are some other ways in whlkji the Statesman will attempt to secure more subscribers for the Daily. These will be announced from time to time. EDITORIALS OF PEOPLE T EXPERIENCE OF A SALEM MAN IN THE HOP YARD- HUMOR OUS SIDE OF IT. - Editor Statesman: - , - I have, been $ut hofcping again. Not the heel and toe hop of our fathers, nor' the, slideand swing hop of their children- but a hop from which Is made yeast pbultlce r and lager ' beer. It is not positive proof of ", poverty to be found hopping, though this, In absence of evidence to the contrary. 1 'consid ered sufficient cause for suspicion. Many thrifty men bring their families, thus securing an outing, while their .women and children help pay the expenses.- .. , - - " -.-; -. - i. : : r " j " - - : The term "dirty picker' has no ref erence to condition of person, but to . the amount of hops left on. the ground. or stems and leaves in the box. 1 A per son may start with a desire to keep a clear conscience by picking clean . hops, but or finding this does not secure the - extra tickets will reason as aid snakes peare's fat .knight.1 "Will conscience supply bread T No! : Will conscience furnish meat? No! Or stand for coffee? ; No! Then 111 none of it." And commence to pick-as dirty not as his conscience, but a'i' the box tenders will -'allow. . .. ;:-. ' About this time if In a Chinese yard. you hear the proud Caucasian ; cussed by the despised Mongolian. But pride humbled is good for the souL The In corrigible dirty : picker Is. fired. He then wanders to some other field to be gin life anew, as It were. ; J It is said, none are too proud to pick hops, but some' there' ; are who have qualms of conscience. For picking a nine bushel box a 40-cent ticket Is paid, regardless of sex. thus. exempli fytng the principle of qual pay for equal labor performed. I . The number of boxes a picker can flU In a day can- not be ascertained without some doubt, for as a liar the hop picker is equalled only by the vet eran trout fisher. At a hopist I dislike ' to break the record by-telling the truth, but the serious character I wish to give these notes compels me to confess that I 'have not been able? go beyond two and a half boxes. . -.-'1;''. , ' MChlnese box tender has to stand a good deal of; gaffing, and sometimes the passers-by have stale Jokes flung at them. I suppose, when Pharoah's hosts were floundering in the Red sea that the laraelitish hoodlums stood on the bank and yelled, "Yer trolley's oft! Yer feet's on 0re! Pull down your vest! Ir remember of but one case awhere the hoodlum met his 'Just de serts. This was When the forty went up for 'badgering 'fa bald-headed man, as is recorded, I believe, somewhere In -the bookf Judges. This lesson seems to' be entirely lost on.v the Oregon tribe. The Chinaman wears, his .en tire shirt exposed tov view. !l ' counted ten patches down the flanks ,of one. While the front promised as ' many (. r IvrMnm h til t. Wn ttw a4. Vice the Oregonlan gave- during the hard times, to consider the situation as final. I carry a few patches, mysetf but do so under protest. V I ; - Now and then a vrnun of ladies eonta stepping daintily . through the fields with skirts slightly drawn revealing m glimpse of Immaculate white.. : S These are,, not pickers, but-simply visitors. Hop, picking Is- a boon to the city girl. Here she wears "easy shoes loosens the strings of her corsets.' ex pands her chest with a deeper breath, while nature begins to flush her cheeks. She has started on a course which if , continued, with her other advantages,' would , lead to a glorious womanhood. But as it is. she "barely recruits enough to 'carry her through,- another season of pinching, cosmetics, and gaslight. In the hop field the country lass is at home. - - She. has. milked,, the -cows -an-l slopped the pigs. Lithe of fingers and strong of limb, she carries her box with ease, and rapidly manipulates the hops.

By peculiar circumstance she. made a serious mis step, and broke both bones of the rjght lower Mirth, Just above the ankle. Dr. W. 8..MoJ,f was quickly called in, and be set the Injured member, and minis tered to the relief of the patient. The fracture Is one that will long seriously affect Mrs. Power, and owing tocher advanced age the patient Is 71 years old there is a possibility that she may be lame the remainder of her days. : Eyes place! close together In the head are said to indicate pertishness of disposition- jealousy and a turn for fault-finding. . DEMOCRATS " OF NEW YORK Meet in Saratoga to flame the State Ticket CANDIDATES PLENTIFUL WJio the Aspirants for the Various Offices ;Are THE PARTY PLATFORM ; WILL CONTAIN NO REFERENCE TO , SILVER, AND THERE WILL BE I NO OBJECTIONS . VOICED TO THIS J COURSE. SARATOGA, N. Y., Sept. 29. The simultaneous arrival, late In the after noon, of five big train loads of Demo crats, mainly from Greater New York, added to the coming of regular trains and manr.jnore arrivals, have , tonight filled the streets and hotels of Saratoga The -situation as to the Btate ticket, it may be said, all depended t tonight en tirely upon the selection Of the Cover nor and Lieutenant Governor, and awaited the final decision as to the two officers. If Judge Parker - was nomi nated and decided to accept the ticket. it is thought, would read: For Gover nor, Alton B. Parker, of j Ulster, or Baird S. Coler, of New 'York; for Lieu tenant Governor, Randolph Guggen heimer, of New York, or Edwin' S. At water, of Duchess; for Secretary of State, Duncan Lee, of Ithaca; for At torney General, John Cunnen.. of Erie; Controller,. James H. Manning, Albany; Engineer, R. W. Sherman, Utlca; Jus tice of the Court of Appeals, John C. Gray, New York, v ?y v ':. -f-t . It was learned upon the best author ity tonight that the party platform will contain no allusion to the money question, and it Is believed that all ob jections to this course will ,;be with drawn.;. ",!::'. '-" , - -i'j-'.t.j::-.,.,'. f ': Three Important facts were developed 'in regard to the Democratic State Con vention late tonight. First, .one of Judge 'Parker's particular friends brought Judge Parker's absolute re fusal to accept the nomination for the Governorship; second, Hugh McLaugh lin," of Brooklyn, arrived i and took charge of the Kings county delegation in favor of . Baird S, Coler; and third, a strong sentiment developed toward making Senator Hill a candidate. , NEW USES FOR m , .ELECTRICITY Electricity, long used n the labora tory for experimental purposes only.

By elecr ericity power to drive machinery can be utilized at the distance of miles from its source, and by . electricity thanks to Mr. Edison's recent discov eries our. streets and houses are light ed more brilliantly than by gas. While all these results are evident to the pub lic at large, there Is still another field in which the use of electricity Is rap idly working a profound reformation the field of tnedlcal science. tThe fol lowing remarkable cures, performed by Dr.-Darrin? show the new uses for tj'lccltrlci ty CATARRH, BRONCHITIS AND CON-' , .
