What Some of the Boys are Saying on Topics of the Day. Among the many causes that have conspired to imikn a scarcity of money not only in Portland, bnl throughout the state, fayn the Welcome, not the least is the scarcity of beef cattle, a sufficiency of which heretofore lias been owned by Oregon farmers. It lias been said by those conversant witli the stock and beef biiHineHB that in the pant year at feast $1,000,000 which should have been held in Oregon was forwarded to California for fut beef. One firm alone lias paid in freight on cattle for the punt five months flOO.OOO. For fut beef in California l'oitland butchers have paid 3,'u cents per pound and tho addition of freight, yet they buy cheaper than they can at home, where good beef cattle are held at live cents, When this market is mentioned western Washington and Victoria must be considered in, since Portland supplies these sections with fuurtifihs of their beef. If the river and harbor bill does not pass this session of congress somebody will be blamed, and if Mr. Mitchell comes np for re-election lie will very likely receive no support from eastern Oregon. Our necessities are such in this portion of the state that we are forced to remember our friends and not forget our enemies, and, furthermore, wo are entitled to a senator. Westorn Oregon lias controlled the congressional delegation long enough, and it is high time that a change should take place. This part of the stato has been too long subservient to Portland, the Cascade locks to the mouth of the Columbia, and the upper river to tho Willamette, and we should study our own interests in the future in preference to any other, The next senator should be from eastorn Oregon, and we should work with this single purpose in viow. The DaUet Timet-Mounlaincer. The other day wo noticed a farmer buying bacon, laid, butter and potatoes of dealers in town. These are necessa ries of life which every farmer should produce "on his farm, ami until the farm ers do so, they cannot expect to become prosperous. With the exception of gro ceries, tho farmer should produce ev erything at home that ho eats, but many Crook county farmers do not, hence tho great drain upon their in comes and upon the wealth of the county. Or h oco He lie u , It's not pet haps so easy to toll jmt the real, eventual, deep through mean ing of " success." It takes so much and so many elements to make up the full, final meaning of which we can only guess at at best when all is done that there is always a chance for mistukes. But it may be answered that so far as (his side of the gulf is concerned it is wholly a matter of feeling; there's no oilier reality shout it ; and there seems to be soino force in that idea too. Eatl Oregonian. A man died from enlargement of the heart at Portland the other day. It is not stated as a fact, but it is presumed that tie was an Oregon mossback, and gave 25 to n schemo that added $10, (XX) to the value of his property. He would have lived through it, but he saw that his neighbor also piollled from his magnificent gift and this killed him. I it the language of the Hhahtown lilittartt, "Hequiescat in place." Salem Slulet man, Borne people think that the gamblers make a tow n lively. It's the working men and people who earn money that do it. The gamblers only come with ths layout because it is a lively place anil money is plenty. That' the facts of the case. U'rVirY.Dii i-.Vo-rsj. NEW FINAL PROOF QUERIES.

The way to keep yourself and your busiiu'ss constantly In the minds of the people is to persistently and attractively advertise In locul papers. You may get out all Ihe circulars you pleure. and distribute them as you will, but they are short-lived. If you ad vertise In a newspaper your name and announcements are al ways where they will be seen: news paper advertisements work ahk v or a nrn.'ri'KTLEY For you In places you least thought of. The paper may be at first glanced over and thrown aside, but some one else (ricks it up, aud there your ad looks the reader straight in the face. It is constantly bobbing up serenely In the queerest places imagin able. Newspapers are used for a great variety of purposes. The housewife puts up her husband's lunch in oue, and he reads ARK YOU A MUD-TURTLE? While he cats, and perhaps your ad will interest him for some particular reason. Packages are wrapped In them ami they travel from one house to soother, each lime being critically canned. They are utilised on the pantry shelves, and even the walls of the house are papered with them. They are used in a hundred and one diltereut ways, aud ( forever staring at vou is the AHE VOl" A m U B.Tl'RTLR? Persistent advertisement; yon must read It; It commands your attention; you see the formation of the words, the letters, thedlf fcrent kinds of type, the spelling, the arrangement, etc., until you have it pat, like a school lesson.

Rome was not built in a day; uor do business men get rich from the prorils of one week's or one month's advertising.

MAN WHO CONDUCTS HIS business on the theory that it doesn't pay and he can't afford to ad vertise, sets up his judgment in opposi tion to that ot all the best business men of the world, says an experienced ad vertising authority. With a few years' experience in conducting a small busi ness on a few thousand, dollars of capital, the man who thinks that ADVERTISING DOESN'T I'AY assumes to know niorexthan thousands of men whose hourly transactions aggre gate more than do Ins in a year, and who have made their mil lions by pursuing a course that he gays is unprotitanie. DON'T II E A JllD.TI HTLE. If advertising doesn't pay, why is it that the most successful merchants of every town, large or Binall, are the heaviest advertisers? If it doesn't pay to advertise, why do the heaviest business firms in the world annually spend millions that way? Is it because they want to donate those millions of dollars to the newspaper und magazine publishers, or because they don't know , as much aa The short-sighted merchant who says money spent in adver tising is thrown away, or is donated to the men to whom it is paid ? Thev advertise for the same reason that they buy at wholesale and sell at retail because there is money in it. Advertising may not pay to day or to-morrow, but sooner or later it is sure to bring a stream of the "dollars of otir dad dies" to the merchant who uses printer's INK. These are facts that cannot be denied, and you are perhaps one of those who are reaping the profits of advertising, but here's a word In your ear: There are a whole lot of bunchgrass farmers who must trado somewhere; perhaps they trade witli your neighbor.
