Seldom has tbe secoul half of a year opened as auspiciously in a busiDeis sense as has that of 1899, says the Globe-Democrat. In all particulars tbe record of tbe first half was encouraging. Secretary Gage estimated in bis annual report to congress last December that tbe deficit in tbe D?cal year which ended on June 30, 1833, would be 112. 000.000. It amounted to only about Few catastrophes in this country ! couat,-ies in Europe, will gratify h: bate been ss widespread as Ibe floods ivaii t.f powtr.

George Evans, former deputy state auditor, bad tbe decency not to burden the state with the expenses of a trial, when he pleaded guilty to forgery. His example is a refresh ing one so fir as admission of palpable guilt is concerned. Other public officials who have been caught stealing the money of the people have invariably attempted to escape t'is' consequences of tbe ii crimes, and it has cost the state enormous sums to land them in the penitentiary. Review. J Va da not bliee that the people of ; our city fully ppreciate just what it j rr.eans to have each an institution in ror state, and K near of access, as is j the ChiuUu jqj Aseujb'v, which meets each year at Gla.Utne rr. just ten uiinutet riJe fmui Oregon City or forty i minutes ride from rorllaud. It is a i luiiful spot, or natural park on the ! banks of the Clackamas river, where jthebvstot causing privileges are af forded, or, 11 visitor so aeeiirs, mean can be secured at the restaurants for 25 rents and a ted for C5 cents at Oregon Cit.r, U'.adtloo o Park Place. Thosj who have attenJel in other years from The Dailes have been more than satis fied and are anxious that all shonld reap the benefit derived. Ths year's prograai is to he an excep tional one, among the noted speakers being Sam Junes, John Dewitt Miller, Frank Beard, tbe cartoonist, Rev. Cam Jen M. Cobem, Emerson E. White, and many others. Beeid6 the best of elo cutionist and musicians have been secured. The rate on the motor lino from Port land is 25 cents for the round trip. Season tickets to the grounds, including camping privi!ece, $1.50; eiDg'e tickets 25 cents, and children under 10 free. Tl.ia year's session bcg'ns Tuesday, the JSth, and closes Saturday, the 29ih. Dalles people wculd do well to look this matter up ai.d see if they have not I been missing something in the past sir years. We are positive you would en- jy not only the outing, but receive much benefit from the meetings. An artful boomer in the Klondike asserts that the cold of Alaska puts a crop of hair upon the baldest head. It is hardly worth while to go so fat away for a hair tonic wheD liquid air can be produced for 3 cents a quart and of a temrerature several hundred degrees below zero. led England and all the other countries, I be present output is ahead of all tbe figures of the past, and the general tendency is upward. Notwithstanding the increase in pro duction, however, tbe demand keeps ahead of supply. V.-nk clearances ure far in excess of those of any previous period, last week's gain over the corresponding time in 1898 being 41 per cent. The postal receipts, wtiicb are an excellent index of general business, were about $0o, 000,000 fcr tbe fiscal year, which was about $0,000,000 in excess of those of the year which ended twelve months .tgo. The number of busi ness failures between January 1st this year and June 30th and the lia bilitie3 involved have been smaller than in the corresponding period in ny other year since 1881, and making allowance for the number of persons in trade and the amount of money invested, the record is much belter even than it was in 1881. Kvrry body looks for a repetition mittecs ibat will follow up tbe work perseveringly throughout the whole devastated region. History teaches that floods are more destructive than Gre, and this example is one of the worst recorded. THE KAISER ASD AMERICA. It is easy to believe that the Kaiser may be induced to visit the World's F'air in St. Louis in 11)03. No monarch of a great nation has ever come to the United States. T :e I'.mperor of Brazil, in the clays when Brazil had a crown-wearer, visited this countiy more than once. So did the King of the Sandwich Is'ands. Heirs apparent of a few great monaichies, like the present Piincc of Wales, have been here, and so have pretenders to great thrones, like Don Carlos. Czars, kaisers and kings pass from one country to the other in Europe. in lbe second half of the year of the They occasionally take outings on favorable conditions shown in the the Mediterranean, tbe Baltic and past six months. More business is I the Black Seas, but none of them being done at present than was ever thus far have crossed over lo the Nearly fifty naval vessels are under construction in this countiy, including a number for foreign powers. Our big sbip-yr.rds arc certain to be kept busy for a long period of years. It will not take the primary classes in Manila long to learn that tbe American dollar is worth twice as much as tbo Mexican coin to which the Filipinos have long been accustomed. On tlie Oraili of Judge Martin. "tlone before in the Uniled States, and it is being done under safer conditions. There is a solid financial prosperity throughout lhe country at the present time which was never -exceeded in the best business eras of "the past, ami was seldom closely ap proached. All this is due to the fact that the political conditions are sound and permanent. The Ke publican party makes no reckless experiments in financiering, but is governed by the lessons of experi ence and the most enlightened judg ment of the world. By its victory in 180C, it defeated the last formid able assault which will ever be made on the gold standard. The fight will be renewed in 1900, for tbe Demo cratic party is bound to make one more canvass in favor of repudiation. This time, however, tbe Republican party will gain a more sweeping victory than it got in 1890, and tbe victory will be final. No intelligent person feels any doubt that the de feat of tbe Democracy in 1900 in its championship of debased money will finish that folly as a political issue. This is wby the volume of industrial expansion throughout tbe Uniled United States. In many very important respects, Iiiwcvcr, William II. is c law unto himself. He is tbe most versatile potentate whom Europe lias seen since Napotcon I. He is the most original monarch which any great nation of the world has bad since Peter the Great. No crown-wearer since Charles V. talks and thinks in so many languages. He can as easily and as gracefully adapt him self to circumstances and conditions as Henry of Navarre. He cares less for the prejudices and predilections cf political prudes than any other monarch of a great nation since Diocletian. A weak and cowardly regard for the traditions of his guild would have dcterreJ every other monarch since Bonaparte from mak ing the proffers of the olive branch to an avowed enemy which the Kaiser has recently done to France. His purpose to visit the Paris expo sition in 1900 will undoubtedly be carried out. William II has good reason to be in an especially amiable mood toward tbe United Stales. More of bis race are citizens of this country At a meeting cf the county judges, eoinriiiseiontrs an 1 assessors of the fol lowing named counties, Baker, Benton, Craokainas, Clatsop, Gilliam, Lane, Lincoln, Multnomah, Marion, Sherman Cuiatiila Wasco and Yamhill, the fol lowing resolutions were passed in mem ory of Judge William Martin, of Uma tilla county : Whekeas, Judge William Martin de parted this iifo on the 25tli diy cf June, 1S9D, at Pendleton, Oregon, while com pleting the eieventh year as county judge of Umatilla county, and Whekeas, our former association and the wite counsel given to the several members of former conventions has been of much value and the knowledge re ceived from hi in has always been for the benefit of the people cf this state, where he has made his homa since 1843, therefore, he It Retailed, By the county judges, as sessors and commissioners hre as sembled that in the death of Judge Mar tin, of Umatilla county, Or., this state hag lost a pioneer of great worth and integrity, a constant guardian of the rights and interests of bis county and this state, and his family have lost a loving and devoted husband and guardian.

An article published in the Stamford Telegram says In part: "The services at the Pound Ri lge church were conducted by Rev. Isaac Brown, the pastor, who made the open ing prayer, and Mr. Theodore Dibble made the address. Both spoke in the highest terms of the deceased both as a Christian woman, a faithful guardian of the trusts committed to her care and her charitable nature. There were many carriages on the East Woods urounds showing th great interest taken by the community in the services. "In her will she devises that one-tenth of her sayings shall U given to the Lord and her relatives will faithfully carry out the rsqnesf A portion will be given to the church at The Dalles, of which she was a faithful me niber, and a portion goes to the church at East Woods from which she took her letter to the ehnrch in The Dalles thirteen years ago.
