NEWS FOR THE RURAL
Observ
er!s Big Asset
AFTER diligent search and at thevsacrifice of. considerable
expense money The -Observer has establish paid corre
spondents in a majority f all the big .towns, and a vast
number of postoffice and rural districts throughout Union
and Wallowa counties. Within the course of a month this chain
of paid correspondents will be complete and long and The Ob
server can then boast of the biggest news-gathering force of any
out-of -Portland paper in the state. . Scarcely a hamlet in the
two counties but what will have its day-to-day news recorded
weekly in The Observer. With a network of telephone wires,
and rural route mail service, the combination works "going and
coming'1' The Observer gets the news from the rural districts
by both letter and telephone, and The Observer, in turn, prompt-
ly reaches the readers with not only the country correspondence
in full, but its varied other news "to boot"
..... ,
Daily TheObserver brings to the reader the latest news and
gssip from the market world wheat, hogs, vegetables, cattle,
in fact, every commodity of trade is reviewed for the instruction
and benefit of the reader wh may have n other way of learn-
ing these important facts.
NV matter how remote the reader is from well-beaten thor
oughfares of commerce or fro the larger cities, The Observer,
through its expensive telegraph news system keeps that reader
in close touch with the world's affairs. No corner so distant but
what The Observer telegraph aews system reaches there and
quickly, surel)- and cwcisely puts it before the Observer readers
today. ,
. ; THE EMPEROR'S STAR.
It Simply Had to Be Put on the Cress
en the Church Spire.
Emperor William is the busiest mail
in Germany.- He revises or approves all
decisions In public matters, supervises
all art and architecture and lectures
everybody. In Illustration of the def
erence paid to bis wishes In even the
smallest details, they 1 tell in Berlin,
writes Mr. Samuel G. Blythe in Every
body's Magazine, the story of the star
above the cross on the spire of tne Em-pej-or
William Memorial church.
Qt course the kaiser insisted on re
vising th4lans of the church. The
architect brought the plans to Lira, and
the kaiser scratched out what he did
not like and mado such addltlops as be
fancied before be gave them tne Impe
rial 0. K. The church was built.
There was to be a big gilt cross on the
spire, and it appeared m its proper
place. But. much to the generafaston-
ifihmeut, when the cross was put up a
large, many pointed Star was raised
above It on a heavy rod. The Berliners
could not understand the star. They
Inquired. The architect said the kaiser
bail added the star to the plans.
The plans were examined. Then it
was found that In revising them the
knlser bad let fall a drop of ink frojn
bis pen, which hit the paper just above
the cross. The architect Btudied a long
time over this blot of Ink. There could
be no appeal, no inquiries. He finally
decided that the blot of Ink signified a
star above the cross, and be put the
star there, making it to correspond as
nearly as possible n ltlt the outline of
the blot The star is still there.
