New England Lags, South Goes Ahead
Washington, Oct. 2.—For the first
time in history, the southern states
outstrip New England in aggregate
horse power for manufacturing pur-
poses according to a census investi-
gation made public today.
This was for the year 1905, and the
lead which the south has taken over
New England is probably consider-
ably greater, for the south has shot
forward in the past two years, while
New England has done but little bet-
ter than hold her own.
The 1905 investigations show that
the total power employed in manufac-
tures according to this report was
14,041,544 horse power. To this
amount steam engines contributed
10,828,111 horse power, or 73.9 per
cent; water wheels 1,647,969 horse
power of 11.3 per cent; electric-power
owned or rented 1,592,483 horse power
or 10.9 per cent; gas or gasoline en-
gines 289,514 horse power, or 2 per
cent, and other kinds of power 283,-
467 horse power, or 1.9 per cent.
Among several geographic divisions
the middle states ranked first in the
amount of power, reporting 5,000,367
horse power, the central Btates were
second with 4,077,298 horse power;
the southern states third, with 2,-
386,330; the New England states
fourth with 2,254,264; the Pacific
states fifth, with 445,937.
Perhaps the most striking fact re-
vealed by these figures is that the
southern states reported more power
than New England, This has not hap-
pened before in the history of the
country. In this connection it is In-
teresting to note that the develop-
ment in the southern states has been
in the utilization of steam power. In
the south 87.4 per cent of the power
was derived from steam and 12.2 per
cent from water, but in New England
59.3 per cent was from steam and
29.2 per cent from water.

DYNAMITED ATHIS GAIE
Dastardly Attempt to Take Life
of Former Sheriff.
SIMILAR TO STEUNENBERG
Harvey K. Brown Had Just Returned
From a Business Trip and Wa. In
the Act of Entering His Premise, at
Time Cowardly Crime Was Done.
Baker City, Ore., Oct. 2.—An attempt
was made at 10:30 o'clock Tuesday
to assassinate former Sheriff Harvey
K. Brown at his home in this city l)y
blowing him up with a dynamite
bomb. Mr. Brown is at the hospital
in a critical condition. One of his legs
was blown off, one of his arms badly
Shattered, besides dnternal Injuries,
caused by the concussion. The outrage
was similar in manner of execution to
that which resulted in death of former
Governor Steunenberg at Caldwell,
Ida.
Mr. Brown was returning home and
as he opened his gate the bomb ex-
ploded, wounding him and blowing In
Hie windows of his house. The explo-
sion was heard in the center of the
town, half a mile away.
The chief of police and county au-
thorities are wholly unable to fathom
any cause for the deed, and they are
also unajjle to obtain any clew to the
perpetrators of it.
A telegram to the Portland OreRoii
ian from Baker City says: Ex-Shrrlff
Brown was dynamited as he returned
fflWJl a trip out of town tp some mining
property." He Was found lying on the
sidewalk several feet from his gale.
The large posts were found blown to
pieces and the fence shattered for | {p
some distance. The perpetrators loft
no trace of their deed except a who,
which extended about twenty-five feet
north along the fence and then went
west about thirty feet to the middle of
the road.
It is presumed that the assassin or
assassins were lying in wait for Mr.
Brown and pulled the wire as he en-
tered the gate.
Immediately after the explosion a
neighbor of Mr. Brown's heard some
men running north from the direction
of the Brown house. It is thought that
Mr. Brown lad some idea of the iden-
tity of the men who perpetrated the
outrage for he was heard to mutter
just before lapsing into unconscious-
ness: "They have laid for me, and
they got me."
Brown became unconscious a few
moments later and said nothing that
would give any clew to the identity of
the assassins.
Mrs. Brown is prostrated by the
shock, and the physicians fear she will
not recover. Mr. Brown while sheriff
of Baker county was diligent in en-
forcing the law against saloon men
and gamblers.
POLECAT NO BAR.
Horse Bathed With Cologne and
Another Buggy Procured
Windfall, Ind., Oct. 2—Agreeing
with the assertion of young Jarvi
Bherer, who said "it's a nice night for
a drive," Miss Minnie Landseadel, his
best girl, started out in a buggy with
him, but when about a mile or two
from town they ran over a polecat
They didn't see him or hear him, but
they had reason of knowing of his
presence.
Without stopping to extend first aid
to the injured, Scherer whipped up his
horse and made a dash for home. Al-
though the lecat was left behind, its
ordor was on the horse and buggy.
Whether or not the occupants of the
buggy were forced to bury theid cloth-
es is not known, but It is a fact that
in order to attend the old settlers'
meeting at Goldsmith the young man
had to abandon the use of his new
buggy and borrow one of J. W. Croyl \
and in order that he might use the
horse he bought a large supply of
cologne water and bathed the animal
thoroughly with it In an attempt to gu
rid of the Odor.
Just how well he succeeded in thi-
effort Is not known, but at any rat
