The Supreme court of the United States has sustained the decision of the lower courts in Texas, which held that the National Cotton Oil Co had for feited its right to do business in that state. This was an un expected blow to the Cotton Oil trust. WE CROW In 1900 the U S Census takers found the aggregate wealth of the people of the' United States to be $94,300,000,000. Since then statisticians report an increase of . $10,700,000,000 an annual growth of $2,550,000,000 mak ing the total wealth of all the people aggregate $105 billions of dollars. This is nearly one quarter of the entire wealth of the whole world, and more than the combined wealth of the United Kingdom composed of England. . Ireland, Scotland, Wales and of Germany. Secretary of Agriculture in a recently published report says: 'Tha valita nf all Hi A nrninrt.a "w I " grown on the farms in the U S in the year 1903 and 4 exceeded the value of all the gold and silver taken f.om all the mines of th6 world since Columbus discovered America in 1492, a period of 412 years." ; We are going to be on ex hibition this year.

Men are seemingly very scarce in the city of Portland judging from the. press in that city with reference to the difficulty they are having in "electing a man for mayor also to 611 Jack Math ew's place, who resigned a few days ago, the chairmanship of the Republican county central committee, better known through out the state as the ''machine." Old Yamhill county is serious- ly considering whether or not to ask that the referendum of house bill N 870 which carries an appropriation of over $1,000- 000. The cause of the aeeita- tion is due to the large appropri ations for the four state Normal schools. It is evident that the next legislature will reduce the number of the Normals in this state to at least two if not one. j;r vr yiucouioe oi me vsrvguu Agriculture College is reported to be an active candidate for Governor on the Republican ticket. His active work at the Farmers Institute gives him an extended acquaintance in the state.

The trans portation questien is the one question if solved right, that will be a leading factor in controling other trusts.
