Tuesday a statesman, that hops grown on the Dove place near Indepen- ence owned by Horst Bros., won the gold medal at the Paris Exposition. The Oregon hops were placed in compe tition with every hop-growing country in the world and it is a source of much pride to Oregon growers that the hops grown here are the best the world pro duces, according to the most competent judges. This will make Oregon hops sought for from every quarter of the world more than they are at the present time, and insures for the product of the state the top price in the markets of the world.

The Newberg dairymen association deserves credit for the self-sacrificing perseverance its members show In en deavoring to place the dairy interests of the community before the farmers of this neighborhood. They are now ar ranging to have public meetings held at outlaying points with the intention of getting the fanners inlereHted in thu in dustry. It is certainly a very good sign that those who are now patronizing the creamery have an abiding 'faith in its future, and they are certainly to be com mended for their perservering efforts toward persuading others to act for their own interests, as well as (or those of thu community.

It does not matter whero ho Btands, whether behind tlio counter, or in thejeditoriul . room or .behind the pulpit. If ho thinks and has the courage to back up his thoughts, and the intelligence to express them he is worth a thousand times more than the truculent boot-lick, the go-between; the tale bearer oT tho hypocrite who is all things to all men. The day for honest opinion is today and tomor row. George Elliott and Hubert Manning were in jail the first of the week on charges of stealing overcoats from Lay ton Smith's and the hotel. Elliott was also charged with having collected money for the Portland Art company and not paying same to the company. The pritfoncra had a preliminary hear ing before Justice Irvine on Monday. The justice found the young men guilty and sentenced each one to pay a fine of $35 or in default, spend 17J days In the county jail. Not being able to pay tho fine they were escorted over to Dallas and wjll visit with Sheriff VanOrbdol the alolted time. In regard to the chur- ge against Elliott of obtaining money under false pretenses, the charge was dismissed, on motion of the prosecuting attorney, as the case can bo taken up at Dallas on release of tho accused from serving his sentence.
