Mr. Graham, he received a good- ly, quantity, pf applause. Judge John H. Scott was the next oa " theprogram and said he did not get to say ks much as he wanted to, because his opponent had thirty minutes and at tackel his policy in tuck a manner that he had to answer a whole lot of foolish -and baseless eharges. : - Judge Scott, then told of how he had - "Jroae to the East to study the road ques tion, and worked sights to catch op -.with his other-work. He referred to - why tbe tax ''lew was as it is. and spoke of the work 'done especially' in IS THIS ;Th last section of the proposed ao called - loeal option law reads, in jart: - Section 18.

Hence "by county Coupled with private aid te swamp work was done ms was also some of the other work nec essary in the 'district.' He 'said Mr. Corby attacked this policy, but he felt sure the poliey was the best that could have been put into practice! - Referred to the fact that at Mt. Angel and Seotts Mills .the interests were .so valuable. anl the roads, so bad -that the people themselves had Tailed about. for the improvement and this was the re sult of enthusiastic work in-favor of gooI roads. r. , V,.. - rj- Referred to Mr.? .Corby's attack n the tax levy propostion .be! haid the leyyl Shad been decreased so that" were it returned to the. original amount of 1900 it would show an increase of 143 per cent over that of today, .while the increase of assessed valuation only amounted to 32 per cent over 1900. Judge Rcott 'also spoke ff' the fact that but few men could build good roats because they did not have the knowledge necessary ' for the proper di rection of the-work. He also spoke of the etfort to secure government aid lor roatls, especially said that he. felt , it worth while . for the voter to consider whether he valued a man who was willing to spend some of his own mon ey for . the; purpose of learning how to serve the electors of the county. ' j Told of how the county had come out of its indebtedness, and had money in hhnd for work to be done and for sal aries to be paid in the future. He also spoke for Mr. I. C. Needham, as a cap able, honest, official, , and -referring to Mr. ,W. J. Culver said it wduld be good for 'Marion county to 'have more men like.bim. -.;'. '. ' . ' . -Mr. Huckestein was the next man on the program, who spoke of the Republi can .ticket as having thereon candidates whose private eharaeter is above re proach, but proceeded to attack Mr. Kay. ' He told a story, which" seems to be one of Mr. Huckestein 's great draw ing cards. ; Mr. Huckestein says Mr. Kay hss his record. He 'therefore pro ceeded to attack again Mr. Kay on the corporation law question, pusing his statement on the fact that Mr. Kay had not voted for the Davey bill, and also, how the Harris bill came up, and: Mr. Kay did not support it. lie admitted that Mr. Kay had supported, the Eddy law.; He then spoke of the fact, that the corporations pa-- taxes, but; he es pecially' was after the other corpora tions, such as telegraph', telephone and railroad corporations. He then attack ed that wonderful Democrat, Jos. Teal, calling poor Joe a "corporation law yer." , : - -; Hev said "Kav hd failed to . support the j" car supply bi..."

He again spoke of F. X. Mattbieu and otht er candidates of bisj party. Question: "If corporations don't pay dbuble tax ation f" He read a paper someone read before some tax congress saying how much assessments liad been increasefl under this open air franchise proposition, but did not say the proposition was just. The questioner asked if the proposition was fight, admitted that local corpora-; tions paid large taxes, Uut still it was right to howl for a tax on corporations. r. Corby was then called put aqd proceeded to object to the legislative attack on the county court proposition, but he would now talk on the question of corporations to help his friend Huck estein. Said it was a part of their bus inew to try the. Republican ease also. Said for a long' time in Oregon, fran chises had been granted without taking into consideration the. state. Said these corporations had given away rights. Did not say that Oregon's principal de velopment was owing to its railroad, tebgraph and telephone lines. . - -Then referred briefly to Judge Scott, and ' said' while he did not think h would be able to elect Judge Scott the latter might help to . elect him.' , He again insisted that the county court had the power to - levy a road assess ment, and also each' road district could assess itself. The county court, he claimed, had no right to u money in any other way or other districts. He said Scott had leen studying the road question at 100 per. month. Was will ing to go among and stand as one of the mossbacks. - Denied that, he ;4 was opposed to people giving money for couniy roads, but that he was opposed to the present system of raising sub scriptions. He worried a good deal be cause the peoole from all over t lye county bad to pay 40; per. cent of the 44000, or JM600 to help Seotts Mills and Mt. Angel build" their road.' He found RUSSIA ? the farm, and this man should get 1 a bottle of whiskey r a keg of beer and give away part of it, without the con sent or knowledge of the owner' of the farm:' Then, ander this proposed law, the good manowhing the farm could, upon the complaint of some, enemy, be arresfed and fiaed or put into jail. .

(lie forgot bow all the eountv helirn to build -bridges wher ever needed.) .Said I : Judge" Scott had admitted that the county had paid 2000 for the ."automobile'.' road to Liberty, and howls about whafa drain this was on all the county. He said that Judge Seott and the county court de nied any money to those districts that 1 - , 1 - - t , tt r uja ont neip on ina wwrt. ut u&uji attacked tbe.aeJ.ioa of the county eourt in the Chamno-ir diDtrict matter. i H then bowled that 'the - sheritf had collected some delinquent taxes and had- helped to pay 1 the county debt, Also .that .the assessment had been 'in creased i2.000.000. . He . then asked Judge Scott to 'explain something about the county books, which be. said Scott, claimed credit for,; but that Ro land claimed credit for it. Judge Seott tbea explained ; how the system had been.-recommended by some gentlemen who experted the county books, "land satiated his hearers. -Mr. Corby, after a few sarcastie . remarks, - closed s by briefly referring to the. necessity 1 for road master, .and asking whether it would not have been, i better to have hired anran who knew ' how to build road VnB 'or the , county judge " to study the- question. ' 1 - I v non. T. B. Kay asked a number of departing gentlemen to await his ex planation' of the corporation law busi ness, wb ich he ' proceeded ' to give. He then told why the -franchise tax was cot out of the Eddy bill, and spoke of the fact' that a similar law to the pro posed Harris and Davey bills ' was be- fore the IT. S. courts at the time it was before thei legislative assembly. It was considered 'best therefore to await the action of the courts to see whether snch legislation would ' stand. I He also showed. that GO, per cent of .the Demo cratic members were,, out of the House also when the bills -came -tap, and some of those present voted against them. - . Mr. Kav then, reviewed his . record in the Legislature, and the meeting ad journed to allow the candidates to go. to Stay ton. - " ,j ' The meetings .have been : well c at tended and full of interest. ; , , At Stayton East Night. . . ; , ' Stayto'n, May 27, J904 ! :.

Prospects Are Tor An Increased Yield Over Last Year Few. Con-' . , tracts Made. : The following artiele taken from the Seattle Post Intelligencer conveys an idea of the" crop conditions and ins pects in Washington: "v Reports from the several hop grow ing sections of the state. indicate that the yield this year will pe even greater Uian the large crop of last season, bas ed both otr the present condition of the vines and tho increased acreage. - A large erower of the White river valley said yesterday that thus far the' vines have been growing nelv, . and under normal conditions from now oa the 1'ug et Sound country will produce a larger crop than a-vear ago. .The acreage he estimates to bV about 4 per cent great er and the yield per acre fully as large. . "f or the state at large, it is estimat ed that.' wit hout some adversity, the crop will be approximately 3000 bales larger-than last year, when the produc tion was 35,000 bales. Similar prospec tive increases are estimated for the en tire Pacific coast, the Oregon yield be ing plaeed at 100,000 tales, as against 88,000 last year, and California 57,000 compared with 3.1,000 in 1903. ; "liut little er last year's - crop , in this state is in the hands of the growers and the few for sale oring 27 cents for the best. Few contract sales have been made, and the grower mentioned above who, besides being a large prouucer. is one in touch with toe situation,' says he has not heard of a contract sale be ing made for. the last thirty days or more.

Found'a Market Could Easily Be Culti ' rated Believes Two Eastern states VWould Consume Entire Crop If uie. Proses. Were Properly Advertised Small Packages Popnlar in Cities. .Chester Tarvin, a prune grower from the r Rosedale - district, arrived in the eity4 yesterday ' from a" three , months' trip in the-East, selling Oregon prunes, and exerting himself to advertise the Pheasant brand for the benefit of him self and other prune growers in future. Mr. Parvin tecame discouraged during the wiiter," on account of the low prices and slow, market 'for prunes, and with drew his crop of aiout 60,000 pounds from the 'Willamette Valley: Prune As sociation warehouse, first naving them carefully processed in 10 and 25-pound boxes.- "lie then went to Illinois to the home of relatives, and succeeded in selling liis entire crop in two counties, all, with the exception of 5000 pounds going to retail dealers and consumers direct. ; . r. " - ;- Mr. Parvin is of the opinion that he has learned valuable lessons, which should be of profit to the growers in the future. Speaking of his trip, he said; "At the present time prices are extremely V low, beeause of the urgent unloading of Oregon ', and California prunes. , I , find large, stocks are being bought by leaelers for the future, who place them on the market as fast as possible,' and will probably be compell ed ' to carry some oyer till next year. It is a mistaken idea, that the whole sale merchant i waiting a- great profit. He. is only making a iair profit, and is selling to the -retaiters at 5 to 5Vi cents, I or !bou." the same pTices barged by J growers lastfall.The retailer is sap ping the life outtof "the -business by selling at from 8x cents to 12 cents per pound, thus, makinw an -en.Tfflou profit, and decreasing the ales." 'c Test. Wan Satisfactory. While 1 in " Chieago. I investigated, and drujnmers rnformeff'rie "they were not atfeiupiing'td sVflT 'OYegon prunes, their, ordc.rs ieing to sell Stnta Claras. I tried to find Oregon prunes m fifteen towns jn Illinois, and foun them in only one, but when I left all were sell ing Oregon prunes,-" and where they or dered a-feW;. hundxed pouikds to begin, were desirous : of placing large orders for the'next crop,Wwel pleased were they. One. merchant said he was al-waj-s prejudiced against Oregon prunes but after a trial grcatlv1 preferred them to Santa Claras.?' s Mr. Pariin took be field and can vassed, .both among, fity a nd , country residents, and among retail merchants, and inmany' placcfc found prejudice, which he could only remove by a dem onstration buying cream and serving the cooked fruit. (He invariahy made many -friends among' the, residents of !he cities by this method. -r and 1 t.oik; arge ,ordej-s!T!Iu?vervr cas where he retraced the ilerritor33i h took-more or ders than on the first trio, showing. the grcatsaTfsraWdTIthyk"I coul'd have'sold his'crop:witfr mucb less trou ble but devoted two months to distrib uting the fruit in 'different centers; and advertising for a futur market. At every point he, distributed adveirtiaing matter, both descriptive of the Oregon prune and .recipes for cookiug.. . Trip Was Profitable. ' '"Those buyers will, all be permanent customers,';- said, he "and in several cities I was urged oi return next year, and was assured of large -orders. J be lieve it is. the only salvation for Ore gon prune growers ia future, and with sufficient advertising two states such as Illinois would use all the prunes grown 4n the Northwest." " . Mr. .Parvin is well-satisfied with his trip because it paid well, the fruit sell ing for a price which, paid him a hand home prof it. over the. price to be obtain ed at home, and he .now believes he -has a permanent market. . He- claims to jet .to- meet a man. who. dos not prefer Oregon Italian prunes to anv. he hss ever- eaten,, after giving them a fair test. Pack Prunes in .Small Cartons. . Another . lesson learned by the trip was that pruneanmst be packed in small package. lie-- did not have enough 10-nonnd : boxes and expects' to pack a great portion . next year ia 5-pound cartons especially for city trade.. For country ipeople .the 10 and 25-pound boxes are all riaht. - . The Silver prune-goes' into the East ern market as Oregon Sweets and re tails at 1.) cents per pound, while the retailer pays 12 cents, and'the grower in Oregon receives no more than for other' prunes. . Mrr Pirvin next year expects to, pack "Oregon Sweets' in 5-pound cartons and place them direct ly in the hands of the Eastern retailer. !The season's coming on now when lots of political lies will be nailed.
