Treasury Depart ment on March 1, 1905 Bent the Observer its monthly circula tion statement . showiag the amount of money and the population of in the U S on that date. It gave the population, excluding our insular possession at 82,794,000. This startes the inquiry as to the oost of the material consumed in pro viding an average living for all pep!s. TO amswer ibis question reference is here made to a total on pages 2,651 and 2 in the January number, 1906, of the commerce and finance just issued by the Bureau of Statis tics which gives the cost of all the ai tides that are consumed per capita in the United States for living. This total gives the prices proportioned to consumption in tbe United States on Feb. I, 1905 as follows: for bread stuff $18,082, for meats $8,031. for dairy and garden stuff $13,650, for other food $10,816, for clothing $16,887, ; for metals used $16,170, $17, for miscellan- eous articles $17.40 making the total cost of all the material used for a livine amount tn $101,042 per annum. - The same table gives the cost of living per capita in 1860 as follows. For bread stuffs $23. 652, for meats $10,084, for dairy and garden stuff $14,169, for other food 8.978, for cloth ing $22,094, for metal used $26. 082, for miscellaneous articles $16,672, making the total cost of living in 1860 foot up $121,631. These figures "how that the ma- tenal oonsumed per capita for living cost $20,539, more iu I860 in the United States than in 1905 To pay for the material con sumed for one year by the 82, 794,000 of people now in the U S at the figures given out by the Bureau of Statistics as the cost of living for 1905 will re quire $10,070,343,014. If it cost as much now to pay for the material consumed per capita as it did in 1860 the amount would have to be in creased by $1,704,346,566. 7i T THE NEW YORK JOURNAL m INVITES YOU S To Join a New Club I which is supplying the public within mag. nificent new Euuyclopia at about the actual cost of production and on terms with, in tho reach of all.

City ...... ... I nnl I Hint I K NEW YORK JOURNAL W m m Metropolitan Antonius has issued a remarkable pastoral address concerning the Russia of today, in which he assigns frivolity,' dissipation and im piety as the cause ef the humi liation of the.nation, and preacb ing repentence and the fear of God. "It is not the first time," the pastoral says, "tb at on holy Russia has fallen dire misfor tunes; but then Russia was a wholly different country, strong in the love of holy religion and impregnable in devotion to tbe emperor and the fatherland. Now while carrying on a great war, instead of congregating in a spirit of high and self deny ing patriotism, internal disen sion reigns in the land, every thing is overthrown, science is neglected and what is holy is tramped upon. With right we are despised by all, mocked at by all the people of the earth. Awake, then, holy orthodox Russia; fear God; cLanee thyself from the stain of the foulness of thy sins; repent, enlighten thy self, and God will give thee grace." Have you selected that book you intend to donate to tbe pri Bon library. Contractoi Geo. Kreiger, who is always a close observer, states that this is going to be a ban ner building year in La Grande and that he expects to burn many thousand more brick this year than he did last season. A hospital has just been open ed in Heppner. La Grande is among the very best openings on the coast for such an under takiug. Where is there anoth er city of 5000 people without a hospital. We are growing and we will be very much surprised to see the present year pass away without such an instutu- tion here. CAR OF DYNAMITE EXPLODES By Sorlppg News Association New Orleans.
