A LITTLE OF ' - Alaskan Indians are snid to be dying of starvation. Of five tribes on Cook's Inlet, comprising of 1000 Indians, half, it is estima'ed, will die this fall and winter. ; . The in. flux of white prospectors has re sulted that the Indians are deprived of flesh for food and furs for , cloth ing.. .They dried salmon last surii- mer, but oot enough (o go. around, and winter finds 400 to 600 of them without food enough to last untill December. It has been successfully demon strated not only that horses and mules can be transported to the Philippines, but also that a major ity of them srriva in a belter con dition than when they were loaded on. the western coast of the United States. Having reached the Phili pines, experience has shown, they stand the climate as well as they do Inst of our Southern and South western States, and the mules thrive better than they do in the more varying temperatures to -be found in America. Never again peed a nation hesitate to send along with its advance guard an equal force of horses, or to ask the ques tion:' "Can a horse stand on his legs for forty - days and land alive?" . For Charity Sake. from an Unknown Exchange. ' "A couple of months ago an old man came Into this office and stopped his paper. We have fre quently met him on the streets since tbat time and it's very amusing to us to note the look of surprise on the old man's face that we are-still in existence regardless of the fact that he 'stopped his paper.' Some day acd .it won't be - long either, that poor old fellow will die. Neigh bors and friends will follow bis life less clay out to the cemetery and lay bitn to rest among the flowers. An obituary will appear in these columns, telling what a kind father, good neighbor and benevolent citi zen he was which lie ibe record ing angel will kindly overlook or charity's sake and in a short time thereafter he will be forgotten. . As he lies out there in the cold grave yard, wrapped in the silent slumber of death, he will never know that the last kind words spoken of him were those of the paper which he 'stopped.'" - - .- . Marrled-Oalrymple-Cunnlnghani. Prom the Lakevlew Examiner. Col. C. H. Dalrymple, the attor ney,' left for Klamath Falls last Tuesday on an important errand. Tonight, he will claim as his bride, Miss Ellen Cunningham, of Ft. Klamath, daughter of Capt. Cun ningham. The wedding' ceremony will take place at the home of the bride's sister,' Mrs. Hampton Chit- wood, at . Klamath FallB. Upon their return to Lakeview, the happy oouple will proceed to Warner, where Col. Dalrymple will teaoh school this winter. He will not give up his law office in Lakeview, but will make frequent trips here to attend to legal matters. The bride is said to be a charming youog women of many accomplishments.

From Ibe Portland Oregouiao. , J. A. Yoakam, representing the San Joaquin Ice Company, of Fres no, Cal., is shipping form Roseburg five carloads of beifer calves. The San Joaquin' Ice Company has at Fresno what is destined to be, if it is not already, the largest creamery in the world, and is engaged in gathering up dairy stock wherever available, to sell to the farmers of tbat vicinity. ' A year ago this concern ' started Kb creamery with ad output of 70 pounds per day. which has been increased to 3.500 pounds, with . a prospect of a still further increase to 10.000 pounds per day. . Be tween 2500 and 3000 bead of dairy cows have been brought into the district from other sections of the coast. -... .. Here is an object ' lesson . for Oregon, not so much for the Oregon farmer as for the Oregon capitalist. The Fresno concern is backed by California capitalists who - have thoroughly investigated the subject and are showing their good faith by a free investment of their capital. When the creamery was ' started there were very few cows in tbat section; but the difficulty was met by a free importation of stock from other sections. ' " ' .The farmers there depend almost entirely upon alfalfa, grown by irri gation. Every one knows what California, especially in the San Joaquin Valley, is like in the sum mer-time. ' The thermometer goes up to 115 degrees in the shade, and as compared with Western Oregon, dairying is carried on under many difficulties. : But the : California capitalist kuows a good thing when he sees it and is not afraid to invest bis money. Some progress is be ing made along dairying, lines in Oregon, but the worst difficulty is in the scarcity of cows, added to the still greater scarcity . of ready cash in the hands of the' small farmers, who are nnable to import from other localities where cows are more plentiful. . r The Fresno people are all boaat- that the patrons of the creamery always have money in their pock ets, and instances are quoted where the inoome from one cow has run as high aB $75 for the past pear. .The central plant is located at Fresno, and skimming stations are situated at diflerent points in the valley, favorably located., What is being done at Fresno can be duplicated, under more . favorable . circum stances, here at Portland. It is merely a matter of bapital. ' ' : : . Capitalists operating large cream ery enterprises like that at , Fresno have to build up their busines; that is, do not find everything ready for them to open a creamery and make buffer in large volume at once. If the conditions of the locality be favorable, then it is a matter of establishing the industry. Usually there is a lack of cows, and to wait for the natural increase is too slow. The farmers seldom have the cash to invest in many new cows. So the capital behind the creamery project can with safety import the stock needed, sell it to the farmers at reasonable prices and take pay as the milk is delivered to the creamery. -This brings rapid de velopment and on safe; business lines. The Oregon field is deemed especially favorable for this plan of dairying operations. .. . j ;.,' .

At no time in our history-can it b said that our people have enjoyed greater freedom from contagious or other diseases, or from want or cal amity of any kind. There is an abundance of the necessities of life) everywhere, easily within the reach of all classes of our people, and as high a percentage of our population is employed upon, terms of. satis factory remuneration , as .baa ever . prevailed in the history of the state. Our schools are liberally supported, largely by the muni6cnce-of 4ba general government through i tho agency of a perpetual, endowment. and are well attended ' in all Oar- rural as well as in our more popu lous districts. ' Oar. people are or derly ami peace prevails everywhere within the domain of our. cherished commonwealth whose future is un- dimmed by any presage of untoward circumstances. -vi "On the occasions of our indul gence in general Thanksgiving, we should not fail to remember with grateful hearts fb.9 courage and high purpose that animated our pioneer fathers and mothers, who, with 'a fortitude surpassed only ' by tho children of Israel, sought ' out and redeemed this promised land of the West, and not only gave it to up, their descendants, as a goodly heri tage, but added it permanently to the growing jurisdiction of a' con quering civilization, to be enjoyed and shared by those who, ini later years have come among ua to be come a part of our stable citizen ship. We have a form of govern ment, both state and national,- un der v hioh the greatest measure of freedom is guaranteed to the hum blest citizen, as well ao those , pos sessed of a greater portion of i ma terial wealth. To all these is to be added the privilege , of worshiping God according to the dictates of the individual conscience h-.. "Recognizing that, as a Christian nation, it is our duty to praise God, from whom all blessings flow, I," T. T, Geer, Governor of Oregon', ', 'do hereby designate Thursday, the 29th day of November, 1900, as a day of general' thanksgiving and praise to the Giver of all good for tho tJC numbered mercies granted ua dur ing the year and century just ; clos ing, and I recommend that our peo ple, as far as possible, abstain' from their usual vocations on ' that 'day, and that it may be devoted in some appropriate manner to ; an ''expres sion of gratitude to the Lord . ,of Hosts for his remembrance to us as s nation and state, and that deeds of oharity may be performed where ever possible, in cases where, the burdens of our fellow men, through misfortune or othet oauses, may ho reached by the tangible evidences of the promptings of generous hearts.
