Canby is going to have a grand har vest picnic September 22. Governor Chamberlain is scheduled at the orator of the day, numerous sports will be en gaged in and altogether a good time is predicted. Canby is a live community as is evidenced from the fact that near, ly a hundre l Couriers go there. ine that because the summer months are dull that they should quit advertis ing until buaiueBS wakes up again. This is not the correct view to take of the matter. The bee' advertisers, and the ones who realize in'st from their ad vertising are those who keep persibtent ly "plugging" away.

Henry Watte rson's Courier-Journal Announces a New Policy. During three decades tbe Louisville Courier-Journal has stood unalterably and eonsicuously before the public at the representativs of the great common ality of tbe people against both the Robber Baron, seeking through the ac cretion of ill-got money to steal away people's liberty by stealing away their franchise rights, and the ready tool of the Robber Baron, tbe bandit politician, masquerading as a statesman and a pa. triot the better to serve the ends of his maser. In fulfilling this high function it has sometimes had to go fast and sometimes to go slow, sometimes to cry "onward," and to cry "halt," sometimes to drive at the root of things, and some times to drive ahead ; but never chang ing the direction of its movement ami always true to the underlying principle of its beiug, exp es6ed by the simple de mand for'-The Greatest Good to the Greatest Number." With the advent of the New Year, that is on the first of January, 1903, the Courier-Journal began a campaign from which it looks for commanding results, sna the better to reach the objects it has before it, the ' twice-a-week edition was changed to once-a-week edition, return, ing to the old Weekly Oourier-Journal, which Cor a quarter of a century was lit erally a political bible to millions of Americans whe knew they could trust both its prescience and its disinterested ness, t ,x The new Weekly Courier-Journal is modern in every respect, and is a paper for the home. It is issued every Wed nesday, and its ten or twelve eight-column pages ate filled with the best work of the best writers. The price of the pa per is $1 a Tear, iu advance, and it is well worth it. By a special arrangement ' with the publishers of the Courier-Journal you can get that paper and the Oregon City Courier for only $2.00. Mountain Vieiv.

Democrat: What the democratio party . wants to do is to absolutely destroy the trusts not the corporations ; but those great illegal and immmoral organizations bauded together for the common cause of ringing the purse of the people, debauching legisla tive morals and frustrating the will of the people. This is what the democratio party is pledged to do, if entrusted with power. And this is what is hound to come, when the democratic party no longer occupies its present humble position. Boono (la. ) Democrat : For brazqn effrontery and wanton insult, the recent editoriaal in the Chicago Chronicle uudor the caption, "Bryan' Impudence Rebuked," takes the cakes For years the Chroniolo has persis tently knifod every domocratio meas ure and every domocratico candidate in the state or national campaigns. For such a sheet as that as to want only impung the motives and pur poses of Mr. Bryan, is .more thau any honest democrat can boar with equanimity. It says: "the gentle man from Nebraska has Insisted upon aud commandod perpetual reaffirma tion of the platforms on which he made his disgraceful campaigns in 1896 and 1300." We submit to" the decent, intelligent citizen regardless of party, if those were disrgacefnl campaigns. If they were not fought out out with the purest motives and on the highest plane of the best interests of humanity. We also sub mit that, had it not been for such traitorous vermin as the Chronicle and others of its Jilk among the daily press of the. oountry, subsidized to and controlled, body and soul, by the gigantic and corrupt corporate in torests of the country, he would have been triumphantly elected, and the country would have been saved from the twin curses of commercialism and industrial serfdom, and of imperial ism. IT is apparent that one of the great questions that will be up for settlement inthe next Presi dential election is the tariff, It will never down and will not be settled unt I it is settled rieht. The Democratic nartv has traditionary ground upon which to stand in discussing the tantt. l he nartv is in favor of revising the tar- iff and putting all trust made goods on the free list. That is a plank that ought to appeal to everj hon est man. Mr Talcum Powder 6c per box Our Talcum Powder at this price is the regular 10c kind and is the best it is possible to make forthe price.
