Salem, Or., Feb. 25. Tlia struggle
for the election of a successor to J. N.
! Dolph in the United States senate,
which has been carried ou in the legis
. laturc for 33 days, came to a close at
J 11:45 p. m. Saturday night by the elec
tion of George W. Mo-Bride, ex-secrc-
tary of state The contest has been a
bitter one from beginning to end, and
up to 30 minutes before the hour set for
final adjournment it looked a3 though
there would be a deadlock. Senator
Dolph held 37 votes .solid enough to de5
feat an election up to 11:15, at which
time a recess was taken for five minutes.
The excitenieut was growing intense
and it was evident that if Oregon was
to have two senators in the next sen
ate, something must be done at once,
as midnight, the hour set for final ad
journment' was rapidly approaching.
When tho joint .assembly was called
to order again the lirst few names called
showed no change in the vote, but
when the name of Cleeton, a strong
Dolph man, was reached he arose and
immediately the vast assemblage be
came silent. It was evident some action
had been decided upon by the Dolph
men. He spoke for a couple of minutes
and when he mentioned the name of
McBride the house broke into a wild
hurrah. He then recorded his vote for
McBride. Each succeeding Republican
whose name was called voted for Mc
Bride and when he had received -15
votes the number necessary to a choice
amid the greatest confusion aud
cheering, a motion was made to have
all the Republican votes recorded for
McBride. and it was carried with a
rush. McBrido therefore received 72
votes, being that of every Republican in
the legislature.
Sketch of III Career.
George Washington McBride is a na
tive son of Oregon, having been born in
Yamhill in 1854. He was educated in
the common schools aud at Williamette
university, Salem. In 1S07 his parents
left Yamhill county aud located at St.
Helens, Columbia county, at which
place he has made his homo ever since.
In J8S2 he was elected to tho Oregon
house of representatives and was chosen
speaker of that body. In 1SSG he was
nominated by the Republicans for secre
tary of state and elected. His populari
ty is attested by the fact that- the two
principal nominees on tho ticket with
him governor and treasurer were de
feated. Mr. McBride was renominated
by acclamation in 1890, aud re-elected
by a handsome majority. He served
out the full term and retired the first of
the present year to give way to his suc
cessor. His Last Human Target Act.

steel plate over his heart. Rieckhoff

the bell" 19 times. At the 20th shot
Haverly sank to the floor crying, "My
God, I'm shot." One of the bullets had
entered his stomach below the plate. It
is said that he could not live. Rieck
hoff was arrested.

RUSSIAN LlEEttAL 3IANIFJESTO.
C.ar Ni.-Iiola Cen-urod Tor His Assertion
of Absolutism.
Br.KLix, Feb. 25. A telegram from
St. Petersburg received here says it is
reported there that Count Tolstoi, the
noted Russian novelist and social re
former, is tlio author of the liberal man
ifesto recently bsued against the czar's
declaration Hint he would uphold autos
racy as ardently as his late father. Pri
vate dispatches received in Berlin on
Jan. 29 gave an outline of a speech made
by the cz.'.r iu reply to the addresses of
delegations representing the nobility of
tho principal cities and many provincial
assemblies, who called upon his majesty
in order to congratulate him upon his
marriage. The czar said he had learned
thus in .some of the provincial assem
blies voices had been raised propusing
that these bodies should have a share in
the BCtticiiient of affairs of state and ex
pressing other "absurd ideas." His
majesty addd that he wished every
body to understand that while he de
voted all his powers to his dear country
he was as ardently resolved as was his
father to uphold the autocracy of the
czar. This remark attracted wide
spread attention throughout Russia and
incidentally throughout the world. To
the majority of the people the czar's ut
terance was a surprise, as he had been
credited with possessing liberal ideas
which might in time, it was hoped, in
dues him to inaugurate reforms in the
government of Russia. But his decla
ration of his intention to uphold the
autocracy of the czar seemed to put an
end to all such hopas, and on Feb. 14
The Daily Chronicle of London printed
a manifesto, issued by the People's
Rights party of Russia, in the form of a
letter to the czar, which was then being
circulated throughout the Russian em
pire, censuring him for his assertion of
absolutism.

Windbreaks for the Orchard-
C. F. Gardner in Nebras-ka Farmer.
This is a subject of great import
ance to those who are interested in
growing" apples in Northern "Iowa
and the state of Minnesota. Sim
ilar conditions prevail in western
Nebraska Ed. I have heard the
subject ably discussed at horticul
tural meetings and have been a close
observer myself for twenty-five or
more years. The result of my ob
servations, coupled with the experi
ence of other.s, has caused me to ac
cept the following as facts with re
gard to this subject. If a wind
break is planted close to the orchard,
or if the orchard is small and sur
rounded 011 all sides by-a. dense wind
break the result is -sure to be disas
trous. It is impossible to grow a
successful orchard that is closely
hemmed in on all sides bv a dense
growth of timber.
A gQod wind
break is. however, a necessary ad
junct, and should always be provid
ed if 3'ott would make your orchard
a success. The first great and all
important question to be considered
in planting" an orchard is air-drainage.
To secure this, plant your
windbreak on the south the- closest
to your orchard, say to within ten
rods. On the east and west sides
ten-to fifteen rods, and on the north
thirty or fort- rods or more, owing
to tile location as regards natural
air drainage. I would advise a
heavy dense windbreak on the
south, the heavier the better. On
the west and north I would have
trees enough to stop the force of
the wind, but still secure a free
circulation of air, by having little
or no underbrush and removing the
lower branches high enough to
accomplish the desired effect and
hold the snow. The orlliard trees
should be far enough away from
the windbreak, at all points, so
that thev will be inside the line of
snow banks. It is desirable to
have banks of snow piled up in
close vicinity' to the orchard, but it
is not desirable to have the trees
themselves buried up in snow on
account of breaking down, and the
ravages caused by mice in girdling.
I would have the wind break on
the east side more dense and heavy
than on the west and north, for
we generallv tret the most destruc
tive winds from that quarter about
the time the trees are in blossom.
Much will depend on the orchard
site selected. There are main
places where first-class sites for
orchards can be found on high roll
ing land or bluff. A north slope is
to be preferred and many sites can
be found where no protection is
needed. There are thousands of
farms, however, entireh' destitute
of hills and bluffs on what is called
the level prairie, it is seldom level,
but generally undulating' and sloping-
enough to secure a good natur
al drainage. On this laud select
the site for the1 orchard, if possible
on a north slope, plant windbreaks
as 1 have described, set small ap
ple trees, headed low, protect
trunk's and large branches from the
sun. do but little pruning and what
you-do prune take fronj the north
east side of the tree, or off of the
extreme top, cultivate well, using
plenty of fertilizers 011 top of the
