A SENSIBLE MOVEMENT.
We wish to give Governor West
credit when he does something of
merit and right here is the time when
that credit is due. While the execu-j
tive chased rainbows for some time
. regarding I, W. W. strikes and other
things, ho has undoubtedly hit on
something now that is of consequence.
His plan is to transform the gover
nor's office into a gigantic labor bu
reau and he has called upon the news
papers of Oregon to assist him. He
can count on the Observer in this
work.
Below we print a letter from him
with blank attached and we recom
mend that all who are in need of labor
at once fill out the blank and forwtrd
it to the state house at Salem:
To the Editor:
We wish to ask your kind co-oper.i-tion
in a movement jto connect our
unemployed with a job. There are
undoubtedly many residents of your
county who could use the services of
a good hand this winter and there are
many idle men in Portland and other
cities in this state who would be glad
to have a place.
If you will be kind enough to run
this letter and attached information
in a few issues of your paper our plan
; will be called to the attention of those
needing a hand. Any requests for
labor made to our office will at once be
taken up with those who are hunting
for employment.
Assuring you that your co-operation
will be greatly appreciated, I am
Yours very truly

JUVENILE HIGH FINANCE.
Give Him Half a Chanc. and This Chap
Will Own the World.
A pupil in one of the well known
boys' schools, vbclug short of pocket
money, conceived u means of replen
ishing his-funds by the following plan:
He wrote to 11 jewelry house In Now
York, wbere Un bad au established'
credit, asking that a silver cigarette
ens? selling at $25 be sent to lilra cm
approval. Upon its receipt he arranged
a lottery among his chums at the
school and offered for sale 100 chances
nt 25 cents each. He sold all the
chances for n total of $25. ; '
The boy who held the successful
number that won the silver case hap
pened to lie one who did not use cig
arettes,'' and therefore the munnger of
the affair offered to buy the case for
$5. The winner accepted the offer, as
be thereby made a profit of $4.75 cash
Instead of having tin article of no use
to Mm, whereas the promoter of the
deal hud $20 left. ,
The promoter now returned the cig
arette case to the jeweler and asked
that It be credited to bis account. This
being a frequent occurrence, nothing
was thought of the return of the ar
ticle. By this scheme the pockets of the
young promoter were replenished t
$20,
the other bovs bad enjoyed their
little game of chance and were per
fectly satisfied with the operation, and
the business house was likewise satis
fled. Yet some people who have heard
of the transaction are asking, "Is the
young financier open to any criticism
for his methods?" New York Sun.

SINGULAR DREAMS.
"Poetic'' Evtution That Drew Tears of
Patho From the Sleeper.
Lord Roberts records a remarkable
dream. , lu October. 1S53, his father, to
.vlvra he was acting as aid-de-canip at
Peshawar. India, had Issued Invitations
for r. f'.'ince. Two days before It was
to take place he was silent, and de
spinc! T.t (h rimf breakfast and eventu
ally t.ild Jitu son that he had hud in;
unpleasant dream, which had visited
him several times before and had al
ways been followed by the death of
a near relation. As the day wore on
his depression grew, and he wanted to
put off the dance. His son dissuaded
him. but that .night the dream return
ed, and tin; dance was then postponed.
"The next morning the post, brought
news of the sudden death of the half
sister at Lahore- with whom I had
stayed on my way to Peshawar."
Many people have dreamed poetry
In their sleep. The London Chronicle
tells of one man who awoke from a
dream with the tears streaming down
his face at the pathos of the following
lines:'
Walker with three eyes,
Walker with two.
Something to think of,
Something to do.
But the limit of absurdity in this
curious art was achieved by the wom
an who composed a whole epic in her
sleep. On awaking she found thnt she
could remember ' only the concluding
couplet:
Admiral Klnkums and his seven daugh
ter
