Orceon. n9 mull matter of the second class under the Act oi Con gress of March 3, 1879. The time is hero now to betfin to fiirure on how the shinbuilu- ins industry will be kept active tutor the war. The llrat thing to do is to amend our shinninir laws making it possible for American ship owners to com pete with foreigners on equal terms. 1 The dry period tins season has been of longer duration than wan the case for a number of years. It would seem that the rain man who had plenty of water in his can at the beginn ing of the season, upset the same and had none left when it was needed most. 1 The nation has as much right to draft men for manual labor as it has for war. Able bodied hobos should be compelled to ooaso loafing and sponging off thu public and go to work on thu farm or anywhere else where labor is needed. This is no time for waste of any kind. l'2x. 1 The liberation of the silver nnd golden pheasants, an ac count of which appears on the llrst page of this paper, is a most commendable act. Thou birds are very beautiful in ap pearance and become uitc tame. 1 hey should lie accorded thu gentlest treatment by all our inhabitants. I'reparing for the movement of more tlinn 000,000 recruits for the draft army that is short ly to be assembled, and for the transportation of especially heavy shipments of grain and food products from all factions, thu railromlH are facing a de mand for freight cars that is thu heaviest in their history and growing every day. t The American people have been altogether too lenient in dealing with anarchists.

There are thousands of our boys joining the colors to. fight for iherty and peace, yet tlie ma jority of them go with but a single thoughtthat is to serve his country, never stopping to think what is to become of those he left at home if he fails to return.

Tho Orogonian is urging that ovoryhody donate a two bit niuco for thu purpose of send ing packages of cigarettes ami thu makings to the soldiers in Franco. Why cigarettes? Why not a pipe and tobacco? Thoro is moro comfort, contentment and onjoymont in a pipeful of tobacco than in a package of cigarettes, Cigarettes excite tho nerves while a pipe and to imcco compoBu mom. wny pass Inwa diucnuragiug thu use of tho cigarette and then encourage tlutir use by tho soldier boys, unnii) of whom are vet. niinniV Tho otl'orts of tho Orogonian is laudatory to a certain extent, nut it wouki uo mucn more so wore it to supply a pipo and to lmcco instead of thu deadly cigarette. - rue reninsuia iron works is lead over heels" in work at .' present time, and thu ca pacity of the plant is being sc verely taxed in the orders.

You have seen this same mother trying her level best to earn tho bread for her little ones, and how she faced this cold, unsympathizing world.
