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

worked -out Within a few days, when
the particulars will be announced and
a conimencement made In the publica

- 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. '" - i S ' i-- -. i . i . ,

On Sunday tMrs. W. R. Power,' re
siding at No.53S Summer street, met
with a serious accident. 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

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

will contain no allusion to the money
question, and it Is believed that all ob
jections to this course will ,;be with

': 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. Is
last coming before the public as ah
agent. of great value in the arts and in
the affairs of everyday life. 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
