OREGON'S TIMBER.
Forestry Expert Johnson makts the
fo'lowing estimate of the timber in Ore
gon. This estimate applies only to
trees 18 inches and over in diameter 30
feet from the ground :

Oiio-uigh.h.ot the timber lands has
been burned over. Two years ago it
was not known there was any red wood
in Oregon, but in Curry county there
re 1000 acres.
The Chicago Tribune says that people
who urge that the proper sphere for wo
man is the home may find much en
couragement in the figures showing an
iucrease'of 50 per cent in the number of
marriages in Cook county since 1899.
Still more to the point is the fact that
the license books clearly show that an
increasingly large percentuge of the
brides are young women formerly en
g iged as w.ie earners on their own ac
count. Negative proof of the same fact
is found in the reports which show that
the number of young women seeking
employment at stenograhers and
clerks lias correspondingly decreased.
Some declare that men are just begin
ning to (ind.out that womon with a busi
ness experience make better wives. All
are inclined to think that the somewhat
general reaction against the new woman
has lui l a umsidorable influence. Cer
tainly the t.ign is a healthy one. There
are few who will deny that the ideal
jilaca fur a woman is in n homo of her
own, and there will he universal accept
ance of the statement that a community
where homes are yearly increasing and
iiHi'iip!ying is likely to he safe, prosper
ous and happy.
A li'.'i.t.Em of the census ollice on the
manufacture of paper and wood pulp in
the United States shows there were in
1900 five paper factories in Oregon, rep
resenting a capital of 2,irl,188. The
aggregate value of the piper products
fnnn these mills was f 1,305,09(1. Of the
papers m inufactiued in the state,
21,410 tons, valued at ifS"Ki,310, were the
kind used by newspapers; 82-17 tons were
wrapping papVr, valued at $375,9(50, and
151i) tons were of various classes, valued
at !"",. "S0. The total value ol the wood
pulp in inufactiued in Oregon was $15,
510. The live paper factories of Oregon
employed 710 men, to whom was paid
in wages the sum of $282,8915. The inis
CJllaiieous expenses of the mills is set at
if 1 17,417, and the coat of materials used,
$"82,07S. These figures place the profits
of the live mills at $2iU,00j Any ene
that knows anything abnitthi opera
tions of the two paper mills at Oregon
(City, nee Is no argument to make him
believj that tho profits of the five mills
are far greater, how ipnchy ttee pfoprie
tors discreetly keep to tlienisijlves.

i,i the'intt'inarcrainiiiing system which
exists today in our schools? And these
Hl.OOO helpless little wrecks are eimply
the children we know about. Conserva
tive medical men, who have given their
lives to the Btudy of children, place the
number whose health is shattered by
overstudy at more than 50,000 each
year. It is putting the truth mildly to
state that of all American institutions
that which deals with the public educa
tion of oui children is at ouce the most
faulty, the most unintelligent, and the
most cruel.
In an address before the Phi Beta
Kappa Society of Harvard Universit y,
Wayne McVeagh pointed out the grave
dangers of continuing to substitute money
for morals as the permanent and con.
trolling force in American politics. "As
one example," said he, "take our atti
tude toward the corrupt use of money in
our elections and in our representative
bodies. Even the dullest intelligence
must see that if we continue to destroy,
as for borne time past we have been de
stroying.the belief of the majority of our
fellow-citizens that elections are hon
estly made, we are destroying the best
possible basis for the security of private
property; for there can he no reverence
lor law where laws and lawmakers are
bought with money, and I fear we are
rapidly destroying the possibility of such
reverence in the minds of the masses of
our countrymen."
Tub Schley court of inquiry has
proved those damnable counts in the
indictment against the old sea dog, says
the East Oregonian that he licked the
Spanish fleet under Cervera ; that fie
lost not one ship nor one men in so do
ing; that he exercised his own discre
tion, technically disobeying orders, and
thereby insuring victory; that Sampson
was not present at the battle of Santi
ago, arriving after the auction ended ;
that Schley said "damn the Texas,"
thereby injuring the feeling? of a mon
strous engine of naval war; that he was
somewhat '.stirred up and slightly agita
ted at the prospect of a bigjfight, and did
not lie in a hammock and smoke cigar
ettes and allow the whole fighting busi
ness to take care of itself.
An Englishman secured a contract for
building a section ol an elevated railway
in Boston. Knowing that because of
the curious operations of the American
protective tariff he could buy American
made steel cheaper in England than
Americans could buy it at their own
doors, he proceeded to take advantage
of the fact. He wrote from England to
several American structural iron works
asking bids ou a certain lot of iron. H
selected the best bid and closed the con
tract. When the contract was properly
signed he cabled the American iron
manufacturer not to ship to Liverpool
but to ship to Boston.
The American carpetbaggers that
compose the government of the Philip
pine islands, draw an aggregate salary
of over $121,030, which tha Filipinos
have the privilege of paying. As a na
tive workman earns the magnificent sal
ary of 25 cants in gold per day, that sort
of robbery in the name of American lib
erty and , equality is not apt to instill
very much loyalty in his breast. The
loyal Filipinos would be all "rebels," if
this country withdrew its troops.
An artificial fuel that, according to
the inventor, can be manufactured for
50 per cent less than coal is a new arti
cle that is attracting much attention.
Henry W. Morris, of Wilmington, Del.,
is the discoverer, after eighteen years of
experiment. The artificial fuel is com
posed of about 90 per cent cf common
earth, which accounts for the cheap
ness with which it can he prepared.
A deiit in this county of neatly $2,000-
000, means that each man, woman
and child in Clackamas county carries
$8 indebtedness, and a county expendi
ture of $150,000 annually means that $6
per head is spent by our county govern
ment for each one of our 25,000 popula
tion. The taxpayer may well take alarm
and ask, When will this extravagance
end ?
Captain Koiiishon of the British
steamer Easingwood, at Philadelphia,
from Sourabaya, Java, reports that on
Angust 0th, near Cejlon, the vessel
passed through a strip of sea the color
of blood, about 14 miles long and three
oi four miles wide. The water for a
depth of two feet was as thick as paHte
and swarmed with siekers.
The w hole of Cape Colony, by procla.
niation published recently, is now placed
under martial law. The British govern
ment confesses by this act that its hold
not only on.the two Boer republics but
on its own colonists of Dutch bl.jod is
lmstSQi4y .and wholly on armed force.

Where Float the Stars and Stripes,
Upon Atlantic's western shore
Where JPilenms came in days of yore
To build new homes beyond the sea
To dwell in peace and worship free,
There float the btars and btripes.
Where once beside the wigwams smoke
The Indians' tread the silence broke,
And now is heard the plowman s song,
Or presses on the eager throng,
There float the StarB and Stripes.
Where bluebirds call with mellow ring.
And mocking birds most sweetly sing,
Where robins' sweet enchanting song
Is heard in spring the whole day long,
There float the Stars and Stripes.
Whereon the Southern cotton fields
The darkey free his hre now wields,
Is glad to be where all are tree,
And sings the song of liberty
There float the Stars and Stripes.
Where deep are drawn the shadow lines
Beneath the somber Northern pines
That seem to Si retch to heaven h igh
And touch at n'ghtthe Btarry sky,
There float the Stars and Stripes.
Where on the fertile Western plains
The farmer reaps the golden grains
Where on the Rocky mountain heights
Atiove the clouds the eagle ligtits,
There float the Stars and Stripes.
On Mississippi's flowery lands
O'er Sacramento's golden sands
And on Columbia's rocky shore,
Where sky and clouds their blessing pou r
There float the Stars and Stripes.
And o'er Alaska's glaring snow
Where fierce and cold the winters blow
Where midnight sun and northern light
Dispel the gloom and cheer the sight,
There float the Stars and Stripes.
Upon the ocean's foamy waves,
Where oft a bark the tempest braves,
Are sailing ships the world around
To foreign ports or homeward bound,
There float the Stars and Stripes.
O starry flag, we sing to thee, '
Where thou ait floating all so free,
And glad we are the world to tell
Of joy and pride, because we dwell
Where float the Stars and Stripes.

When li
You
Eat J !I
Do you have a feeling cf undue fullness
in the stomach, belchings, or sour or
bitter risings? These are but a few of
the symptoms of the diseased stomach.
The worst thing which can be done
for the stomach in such a case is to take
some tablet or powder which merely
gives temporary relief from discomfort.
The best thing to do is to begin the cure
of the disease by beginning the use of
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
It cures diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
It makes the "weak" stomach strong,
and puts the body in a condition of
vigorous health.
" I was troubled a long time with dyspepsia,
torpid liver, and constipation," writes Mrs. Julia
E. Deal, oi Ostwalt, Iredell Co., N. C. "Could
scarcely eat anything at all ; would have attacks
of pain something like colic, and sometimes it
seemed as though I could not live. I wrote to
Dr. R. V, Pierce, stating my condition, and in a
few days received a kind letter of advice, telling
me to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery. I took four bottles, and one vial of Dr.
Pierce's Pellets, and now I can eat anything I
want and it don't hurt me. I have not been in
bed a day since I took your 'Golden Medical
Discovery,' and I have not since felt any symp
toms of disease. I have not taken any medicine
in twelve mouths."
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Tellets cure con
stipation. Sagamore Sour Mash.
It you want a liquor that is chem
ically pure direct from the distillery,
try the Sagamore sour mash. Kelly &
Noblltt, direct purchasers.

SfOPS THE COUGH AND WOKKS OFF
THE COLD.

a cold in one day. No Cure no pay
Price 25 cents.
Brain-Food Kensenae.
Another ridiculous food fad his been
branded by the mot competent authori
ties. They have dispelled the silly no
tion that one kind of fond is needed for
bones. A correct diet will not only nour
ish a particular part of the body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet how
ever good your food may be, its nutri
ment is destroyed by indigestion or dys
pepsia. You must prepare for their ap
pearance or prevent thpir c .ming by tak
ing regular doees of Green's August
Flower, the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A lew doses aids di
gestion, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purifies the blood, and makes you
feel buoyant and vigorous. You can get
Dr. G. G. Green's reliable remedies at
George A Harding's drugstore.

When work is hard and
