He re grets very much that some of his goods were delayed in arriving f r the opening as he had anticipated they would be, but tliey are coming in every day nnd his stock will be built up ns rnpidly ns they arrive. Some neonle think times nre a lit tle slow in St. Johns, but a look at the record of building permits will show thnt there has been n pretty good business doing in the city's growth since last November. The record was commenced on the tirst day of that month with number 1. This week wc nave passed the cen tury mark in that record, as will be seen by reference to our columns. The people of St. Johns generally will be glad to know that Rev. F. L. Young wns returned to this charge for another year by the an nual conference. Next Suuday will be his first meeting of the new year. Mr. Young has made many warm friends 111 bt. Johns since coming here who will congratulate themselves on having him for a lei low worker during the coming year of his pastorate. F. P. Babbitt left this week for Pierre, S. D., where Mrs. Babbitt has been for some time holding down a claim. They will remain there until they prove up. Mr. Babbitt likes it here very much bet ter than tu nerre and It they can make their arrangements will return here as they still retain their prop erty in Point View. Of course they had the Review sent to them each week, where it goes with our best wishes for their success and a safe return to St. John. The abominable crime committed in Baker City Monday night seems almost incomprehensible. There may be some excuse for such ac tions in Russia, where the people are made worse than slaves by the persecutions of the autocracy, but here where men are free there is none. Nothing short of a disposi tion asdiabolicalasthat of the fiend incarnate could desire such a thing, much less to put it in execution, and there is no punishment on earth severe enough to expiate such a crime. Ex-Sheriff Brown had a number of friends iu St. Johns who knew him well and speak of his life in the highest terms. A Large Attendance Should Represent This City. Actint? unon a suggestion from the Multnomah County Fair com mittee the St. Johns Commercial rlnl nt iti iiipptitii' WcdiiDsdnv even ing decided to take the matter up and nave as large ueiegnuon ns pos sible represent tills city nt Gresham. A rntmnittco wns nnnolntcd to as certain how many desired to attend and to mnke arrangements for trims tmrintimt. The Fair committee has expressed n willingness to give n day to be designated ns at. jonus Dav at the fair, mid the club is de sirous thnt the nconlc nrovc that St. Johns is on the imp by sending n booster crowd to tne county inir. There should be enough to fill two or three cars nt least from St. Johns. It is only in this way that wc may aid this part of the efforts of our ctitrrnrislntr citizens to develott our j.- 0 - - 1 great stnte nud place her where she belongs, nt the head of the list iu uTnltlt. ns she is in he.nutv nf scen ery ami licnlthfuluess of climate. All those desiring to go nre re quested to leave their tinuic with Mr. Mnxon nt the nostoffiec. Frank Goodcll's cigar store or at this of fice. This should be done ns early ns possible so thnt the proper num ber of enrs may be arranged for. The committee litis not hnd time to make arrangements in regard to transportation, but it is expected to be so arranged that the cars will make no stops between this city and Portland. At that point the trolley will be taken to Grctihnm. The fore for the round trip will not be much, probably 50 cents. Next week these matter will be definitely announced. As many of our business houses as can should give one or more of their onmlnvps n dav off. ctve them n badge representing their business. The manufacturers would receive it grcnt denl of advertising if they should send n representative on St. Johns Day with some of their products made up iu miniature nud cither place them on display or have their representative carry them throughout the day. Let everybody go. Gresham de serves it for the trouble she has gone to to mnke the nffairn success. It will be 11 good advertisement for St. Tnhtm.

This is an age of education, and the child who does not take advau tage of the days of his youth to nc fiuire it, will most certainly be bidly handicapped iu the after years of liis life, Parents should consider this and assist the truant officer to the utmost iu discharge of his duty. Belieu-Rood. Perry Beheu of this city was married last Wednesday at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. L.

There nre adding machines and adding ma chines, and not every one is as ingenious and capable of doing the work of one recently left iu the office of the city recorder for him to play with. We were over there yesterday for information and asked him to play it little tune on it for our del cctation. Mr. Essou is nothing if not accommodating. That is part of his profession. He had heptem Iter's receipts ready to be footed and in about five minutes he had them all recorded 011 the machine simply by playing 011 a lot of keys looking much like the keys of our Smith-Premier. Then he asked us how long it would take us to foot up the column which rati up into seven figures. We replied it would take some time as the column was about a foot long. He simply touched a little lever and pulled another, when, presto, the footing showed on the paper. He also showed us how the diff erent operations of correcting errors testing for accuracy, etc., were made and we noticed there was one lever he did not touch. Like any chump that was just the lever we wished to know all about and told him so. Mr. Essou replied; "Oh, I don't just know what that is, I have never used it," and pulled it to him. He nulled the throttle wide 0(1:11, ami this started the machine going. It is a fine piece of uicchatilsm.
