FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1901.
There is some food for thought
in the difference between the price
of livestock at the packing plant,
ns quoted each week in the Review,
and the price asked by ttie butcher.
Who gets the difference?
The spectacle of young girls
standing at the cntrnnccs of saloons
Saturday and requesting the patrons
to buy chances on a piano contest
was far from being a pleasing sight.
Parents should restrain their daugh
ters from this practice, ns it only
can lead to something worse. No
Daren t would be pleased to hear a
saloon habitue address their girls in
the manner some of them were
spoken to and the endearing names
they were called Saturday. It is
bad enough to hold tip pedestrians
on the street in nu indiscriminate
manner on such a mission, but is
certainly far from a dignified man
tier in which to secure a piano or
anything else.
General Compton, V. R. C. of
St. Johns, nfter severnl years of
struggles and discouragements, has
at last attained nu enviable position.
They arc not only growing numcr
icnlly, but they arc becoming more
and more united in their work.
At the last meeting in January
they adopted the infant sou of their
late president, and as he is a sturdy
little youngster and the grandson
of a veteran, wc shall expect great
things of him.
On February 26th, the W. R. C.
will give a camp-fire ami dinner at
Portsmouth of which 11 more ex
tended notice will be given in the
future.
At the next regular meeting,
Pchtutiry 19, there wili be a large
amount of work. A chaplain and
a treasurer will be elected, also sev
eral candidates will be initiated. All
members are requested to come
early. Mrs. R. II. M., Press Cor.
A Mammoth Industry
Mr. Fred Gunn, bf the Gunn
Sectional Bookcase Company, for
the past month has been traveling
over Oregon searching for a loca
tion for a branch of their vast
Grand Rapids, Michigan, factory.
During this time he visited Eugene
and Oregon City with the idea of
locating there, but decided that
neither place was exactly suitable
for an establishment of the magni
tude which he wished to start to
supply the Pacific Coast Territory.
He then changed his search for a
suitable location to this city and we
understand from reliable authority
that he has practically decided to
locate on the Swift tract south of
the packing plant. Our under
standing is that a factory larger
than the Swift plant will be built
and that employment will be given
to 700 men. Not only docs this
company manufacture book cases,
but desks, office furniture and in
fact furniture of nil descriptions.
A factory employing 700 hands
means an increase of at least 3500
in the population of the city and in
addition will give employment to a
large number of men, to supply the
wants of this army of workers.
Portland has long needed factories
and a pay roll and the advent of
the Swifts on the peninsula was
only a beginning to the large utiin
ber of Pastern firms who will re
cognize Portland as the logical man
ufacttiring center of the Pacific
Coast. Abstract.

Death of Mrs. Caples
Died At her home, 301 Rich
mond street, St. Johns. Oregon,
Feb. 6, igio, of tuberculosis, Mary
lilla, wife of W. II. Caples.
Mrs. Caples was born in McMiuu
ville, Oregon, August 8, 1873,
where she grew to young woman
hood and where she was married
to Mr. Caples May 35, 1894. They
went from there to eastern Oregon
where they lived at the Dalles four
years and nt Hood River two years.
Of late years they have made St.
Johns their home and here Mrs.
Caples leaves a wide circle of friends.
Mrs. Caples was an affectionate,
faithful wife, a loving mother and
sincere, helpful friend. She leaves
to mourn her, six children, hus
band, father, mother, six brothers,
five sisters and many friends who
learned to love her for her many
Christian virtues. She was a mem
ber of the Evangelical church
where the funeral services were
conducted Monday nt 13 o'clock
under the auspices of the M. W. A.
of St. Johns, assisted by the choir
of that church. Interment was
made in Columbia cemetery.

GOOD meat that Ditgood & Cole's
it the place to get it. An ever in
creasing trade is sufficient testimony
of the fact that they arc giving per
fect satisfaction. Nowhere else in
St. Johns or Portland, for that
matter, is better meat sold. The
prices are always just right and the
meat is ever fresh, pure and whole
some. If you arc not a patron of
their market ns yet, it will be to
your advantage to give them a call.
A full and complete line of all meats
usually kept in a first class market
is always found at this market.
Courtesy, fair dealing and honest
weight in connection with the very
best meat the market affords is
what is increasing their trade in
such a gratifimg manner, Call and
