OREGON OITY. JAN. 23, 1903.
UNIONI&yTLABEL
Judge Parker could carry New
York, while Roosevelt could not.
Senator burrows' favorite quota
nation from the poets is, "Oh, for a
Lodge in some vast wilderness.
The situation in the legislature of
Deleware, Kansas, Colorado and
New York are comprehensive illus
trations of republican harmony.
The President didn't get any
bears on his southern trip, but he
has a few southern coons on hand
that he would be glad to get rid of,
If the Senators were elected by
the people they would not dare to
pursue their present dilatory tac
tics in the hope of preventing anti
trust legislation.
A repub'ican majority . in the
House will now pass an anti-trust
measure with the full confidence
that it will be lost in the mazes of
senatorial procedure.
The President may have satis
fied his desire to interfere in every
body's business but he has not
strengthened his position by at
attempting to dictate to the Utah
legislature.
The next national republican
convention will be composed of 447
delegates, of which number 173
will come from the south and will
cheerfully obey the mandate of
Senator Hanna.
President Roosevelt's rapid loss
of strength in his own state indi
cates that the next Democratic can
didate will come from that section
and that the selection will probably
fall on Judge Alton B. Parker.
Two of the New York great dail
ies which have heretofore beenloy
al to the President have turned up
on him. One isbjtter in its ridi
cule of his anti-trust policy, while
the other is condemning his south
ern policy.
The republican senators' headed
by Beveridge, of Indiana, have
worked like beavers to construct of
the State-hood bill, a dam which
would obstruct all anti-trust legis
lation and it looks as if they would
be successful.
After the brilliant example set
by thr late Senator from Michigan,
by Senator Hanna and numerous
senatorial republicans, Mr. Add
kks cannot be made to understand
that it is not exactly becoming to
insist on buying a seat in the Unit
ed States Senate.
Senator Hoar is angry at the At
torney General for suggesting a ri
val trust bill. Senator Elldns is
sensitive because a bill affecting
commerce was not referred to Ms
committee, and so senatorial digni
ty is to be made another barrier to
anti-trust legislatiou.
The people are begging for relief
tor the suffering largely contribut
ed to by ths tariff on ico.il, jbut
there is no hope of relief from a
republican Congress. The Dinaley
schedules are more precious !tnan
the lives of the women andjchild
ren in the eyes of a true republi
can. A HALF TOLD STORY.
The story of the wealth of Clack -nmas
county in the state of Oregon
has only been half told. Her but
ied riches, her wonderful forests
and endless acres of alluvial up-
land and valley soil have onlybeen
seen in the perspective. In more
ways than one the county of Clack
amas is the most remarkable on the
American continent. It is to tell
its'story, exploit its resources and
blazon to the world its illimitable
possibilities that the Courier is
seeking to accomplish in its souve
nir and illustrated edition which is
promised for the nearfuture.- This
great county
is entitled to have
aid about It in no uncertain way
all of the good things and none of
the bad. It should be written in
big letters so that "he who runs
may read" that this county pre
sents to the world the best oppor
tunity for homes, happiness and
plenty to be found between the
two seas. The county is as large
as the state of Rhode Island and al
most as large as Deleware.
n
acre of its soil is a rich loam, fruit
ful in season and bountiful in har
vest. The county has many re
markable natural advantages and
places of picturesque interest. Mt.
Hood, that old sentinel of the Cas
cade range, marks the county s
eastern boundary and lifts its snow
capped peak into the sky, watch
ing "forever and a day" the love
ly valley stretching away to the
westward from his feet to the waters
of the Willamette river. No more
picturesque and useful water falls
can be found anywhere than is the
falls on the Willamette river at
Oregon City, The Clackamas
river, some twenty miles back from
the Willamette, tumbles in half
mile down a fall of loo feet, making
one of the finest water powers in
the country. The county has ten
beautiful rivers running from the
"mountains tothe sea.' Its rivers,
its water falls, and its mountains do
not constitute all of its marvelous
features, or all of its wealth. Twenty-five
miles east of Oregon City,
and about half way between the
river and the mountains, is Wilhoit
Springs. A watering place that
has but one equal in the world.
The water is abundant and its cur
ative properties come only second
to Baden Baden in Germany. To
that great Spa even now thousands
of people journey each summer for
health and pleasure. Further out
and in the 'foothills of the Cascade
range are the famous Hot Springs
of Clackamas county. They are
hardly known even to the people of
the county. Here the water comes
from the bowels of the earth at al
most a boiling temperature, and is
abundant for any and all purposes
and will in the days to come no
doubt be as famous as a resort 'as
the Hot Springs of Arkansas. With
our timber and rich agricultural
lands, our fruits and stock, Clack
amas county easily becomes one of
the richest spots in the world
is of and about these things the
Courier desires to write in the illus
trated edition it has put on foot, that
the world may know just how big
and important we are.
An Illustrated Xumber
The Courier lias undertaken the pub
licatbn uf an illustrated number de
voted to a general description of the
wealth and resources, people and his'.ory
of Clackamas county. Tlte Courier ue-
lieves iu doing "All things well" lieueo
promises the people of llus county Unit
tnis edition ol the Uourmr sliull be one
one of the handsomest and moat cjiu
pieto iu every detail yet issue.i on ttii.-i
coast. It is Uie intention to issue a pa-
per of tiny-two pages, t lie same sue s
the regular pages ol the Courier, iliac
each page ahull be handsomely illustra
ted with half tone cuts of people,seetitry
and things of this great comity. Thai
the Jpper shall be printed on ttie finest
bouffpaper and bound lmudsonwiy in
covvrs. 'e promise that every mater
ial resource of Clackamas couuty, its
villages and its towns shall have titling
write up in its columns. We expect u
call on every one who lould likely be
iutererUtd iu this issue of the Courier,
unfold our plans to them aud solicit
them to take space in this i&sue of tin
paper. We bevin this work the com
ing week and wiUcvy it to completion
just as fast as we potfiibly can. The pa
per will be issued in from slx'y to nine
ty days. Some delay may be occasioned
br the rainy weather of the latter part
of the -winter, as we want to get out iu
the country to itet pictures of the country
homes, and points of interest iu Clacka
mas county and it takes good weather to
take good pictures. The editors uf the
Courier are old hands at this class of
work and feel assured that the paper
will be the best tiling that has been
done for Clackamas couuty in xmany
years, ThiB is a most opportune time
10 put this kind of an enterprise 011 foot.
Thousands of people iu the Kmt are
turning their eyes in this direction and
much can be accomplished in securing
them us permanent settlers tf tbe Wil
lamette valley aud Clackamas couuty if
we bat advertise our resources and pos
sibilities. The Courier is in this under
taking with the expectation of doing its
part and only asks tbe nearty coopera
tion of its friends and the people of the
county, Six thousand copies ot tnis
edition will be issued and as many more
as the prospective demand will likely
absorb. Persons in the country who are
interested in this work and desire their
farms and homes written up and pic
tures of their stock made should com
municate their wishes to us at as early a
date as possible, as it will be necessary
to secure the services of a good photog
rapher and catch a nice spell of weather
during which the pictures can be made.
It is tbe intention now to have the pa
lter ready for delivery in the early
spring.

Supreme Lodge .
Knights of Pythias,
Endowment Rank.
WHAT THE ENDOWMENT RANK IS
The Endowment Rank is a Fraternal Mu
tual Benefit (insurance) Organization. It
was brought into existence by the Supreme
Lodge Knights of Pythias. It is, there
fore, an integral part of the Order itself.
It is legislated for and controlled by the
Supreme Lodge, representing the entire or
ganization, which means that more than
600,000 of America's best men are interest
ed in its welfare, and stand sponsors for
the fulfillment of its obligations.
It is operated through an executive board,
termed. "The Board of Control." This
board consists of seven members, two of
whom are the Supreme Chancellor and the
Supreme Vice-Chancellor, the other five
also being elected by the Supreme Lodge.
A SECTION OF THE RANK IS BENEFI
CIAL TO THE SUBORDINATE LODGE.
The Endowment Rank adds much strength
to the subordinate Lodge, as it is a rare oc
currence that a member of the Rank per
mits himself to be suspended for non-pay
ment of his Lodge dues, because such sus
pension would cause a forfeiture of his
membership in the Endowment Rank,
For this reason the Rank solves in a large
degree the problem of how to prevent the
suspension of members for the non-payment
of dues. "
Some will tell you that no reliance can
be placed in Fraternal Institutions; that
they are uncertain and poorly managed;
that many of them have "gone to the
wall;" that the system upon which they
are organized Is impracticable in brief,
many will tell you to avoid Fraternal In
stitutions by all means. In this connec
tion it is perhaps well to call attention to
the fact that Old Line Companies have
their short-comings as well as Fraternal
Organizations. Charters have been grant'
ed to over 800 Old Line Insurance Compa
nies. Ut this large number there remain
in existence today less than 50. On the
other hand, statistics show scarcely an in
stance of a well-established, bona fide Fra
ternal Institution upon the Lodge system
that has failed. Of this class it should be
remembered there is no organization pre
senting stronger cohesive factors than the
Order of Knights of Pythias, of which
the Endowment Rank is an integral part.
Some will teJJ you that the Endowment
Rank's rates are too high. In reply to
this, it may be stated that the rates adopt
ed by the Rank are based on the mortality
table adopted by the National Fraternal
Congress. This gives a rate, agreed by
eminent actuaries, to be as low as is con
sistent with safety.
The Endowment Rank is now 25 years
old, and is stronger today than at any pe
riod of its existence.
Have You Looked Into the
PIANO and ORGAN PRICES
at Eiler's Piano House ?
They are so low now as to be simply startling and mean a good thing for
you at small cost. -
It is a quick cash raising proposition with this house, and we are letting
superb instruments go at prices that have heretofore seemed impossible.
Chickerings, Webers and Kimballs, our leaders and the pianos that lead
the world over; the Pacific Queen, Kimball, Burdett. . Needham, Peerless and
Crown organs, all can be secured now for small cash outlay.
Write or 'phone for particulars.

Pianos the best and guaranteed.
We send pianos everywhere, subject to examination.
Money back if not absolutely satisfied.
I.arge nourishing houses at San Francisco, Spokane and Sacramento.
It Is to the Interest of every Pythian to
become a mem ber of the Endowment Rank,
for it adds strength to the Order. . '
, It offers protection which is as safe and
reliable as that guaranteed by any Frater
nal Institution in existence.
It offers a maximum of protection at a
minimum of cost. ,
Its rates are entirely equitable as to age
and occupation.
Its medical examinations are free to the
applicant, the same being paid by the
Rank. All moneys are returned to reject
ed applicants.
Its death claims are promptly settled
upon the filing of satisfactory proot or
death. ' '
It comes to the aid of a Knight's family
when assistance is most needed.
It has granted protection to the extent
of over One Hundred Million Dollars to
the dependents of sixty thousand members
of the Order.
! The Rank presents the strongest features
of cohesive strength, equity, economy.
It is the only insurance which is in any
manner connected with,' or recognized by
the Order, Knights of Pythias. During its
25 years of existence it has distributed
more than $18,000,000 among the benefici
aries of deceased Knights.
It is the practical exponent of one of the
most important forms of benevolence
thoughtfulness for those we love.
It is to your interest to insure today, for
tomorrow may be too late, and years of re
gret may follow.
