A boy whose literary effort gains a place on the editorial page of the Ore gonian is entitled to more than pass ing notice. John Finucane earned this distinction. At the age of fifteen he has narrated briefly in an easy and ruasterly style tiie story of John Mc Laughlin's career. The story is sim ple and instructive. As a whole it would be taken for the production of a. mature mind rather than tho ' effort of a lad yet in the public'school. ' Muster Finnucane has receivod his training in the, Catholic school located on Tenth and Main streets, this city. The grave of the founder of our city, concerning whom ho wrote, is in the name block witli the school lie at. tended. This little mound with its humble marking undoubtedly made a doep impression on the reflective mind. It whs more to him than earth and stone. The Sisters who have groomed this young mind into such capability may justly feel a thrill of prido in their pupil's succoss. Oregon City claims the distinction that one of her resi dents wins and we are all proud of the boy who brings homo this honor. ONLY A MISUNDERSTANDING. We think the Courier has no dis agrooiiient with the Redland corres pondent rogarding roads. Wo have heretofore commented on the fact that tho splendid Logan road was duo largoly to tho fact that tho rosidouts tributary to it wont down in thoir pockets to a generous depth. Such is also tho case with the Redland rond. But the county did its part in these enterprises and we believe there are othor localities, miserably provided with roads, that are ready to como forward as did tho Logan and Rod pooplo when tho county is prepared to moot them half way. . Tho Courier is proud ot tho excel lent highways in question, but iB also solicitous for tboso communities that are , not so well provided for. The Kodland correspondent ngroos with us that it is not a proper time for the oounty to spend a large sum on the Burton bridgo. Tho Griwigo, many of whoso moui bors would have boon benefited by the bridgo, showod a splondid spirit in looking beyond self-interest and in considering tho injustice of an under taking, the bone (It of which is con fined to so tow and the expense boruo by the whole county. But tho mutter is disposed of for a time wo think very properly settled. and PROGRESSIVE MAPLE LANE. A lively write-up suoh as" was sent in- to the Courier from Maple Lane last weok helps the community and heaps the loonl paper. Neighbors want to keep hi touch with one another. One doos not realize that things are moving around hiui until ho sees an aocountjlof the week's hap pollings in lis local paper. The correspondent asks, "Shall Maple Lane have debating society V" Let us answer " Yes" for Maple Lane. Tliore'is no excuse for a comniuuity so thickly settled in not proviidng ,t place lor tho young people to spend an occasional evening together. A debut ing society meets the requirement and is a source oi entertainment and in struction for both old and young. Koinenihor tbe men that arc to oc cupy tho high places are growing up in your midst today. Distinguished statesmen, soldiers, men of letters and "eminent men of every pursuit in life remember gratefully the debating so ciety or the literary sooioty that taught them their first lesson of self-, assertion and self-reliance. Of course Maplo Laue should havo a debating society. So should every community in Clackamas county. PAIR CLOSES TOMORROW. Lewis and Clark Exposition closes tomorrow night I After a most successful season of four.acd one-half mmithstho"big"Fair clososits gates, the lights will bo ex tinguished, and the attractions beau if ul will be ..no more. A surplus of $100,000 is not tho most succet-sful.part of .this Pacific Coast Exposition. Its greatest effect will be as an educator. Tous'of thousands of Eastern people who have from childhood believed that the great West was a dwelling place suitable for Indians alone, have be- ,. ,. , .. .. , .. , come enlightened, satisfied, gratified and have gone home, full of praise for Portland, for Oregon and the Coast. The results will be far-reaching, and t , ' cannot evon be estimated. Oregon has done her part nobly. The attend- anco has been remarkable and the croation of the Pearl Citv is bv far me greaiost ming tne JNorcnwesc mis ever accomplished. The Courier has scored a distinct triumpt this week in its reports of the Grange Fairs and meetings, both Fairs being covered in detail by able cor respondents at Molalla and Maple Lane. The Courier is proud of Clack amas county Granges and its columns are always open to them. It is only a wonder that there are a few Granges in the county that do not hiive an en - emetic and faithful correspondent to keep them up with the fust grow ing procession. One of the most noticeable of the purely agricultural exhibits at the Molalla Grange Fair was a seven toe turnip from the farm of Martin Rob bins, a loading furuier of Needy. The heavy vegetable weighed seven and ouo half pounds and was brought to Oregon City by W. V. H. Samson whore it may be soen at the office of the Courier. EXCHANGE TALK As Aurora Sees It. Tho proBont game law is a piece of class legislation pure and simple, the purpose ot wlnoli is to discourage hunting among the country population so that the city sports can have a bet ter opportunity for satisfying a mania for killing. The impudence of tho City Attorney Franklin T. Griffith city sport with his guu license is bo-(has fllod a demurrer to the complaint coming uuboarable, and has caused the, of William Andresen against M. P. farmers to organize, agreeing to allow i Chapman, M. Justin and O. M. Mason no hunting on their premises. Under .and the argument on tho demurrer the present law this seems to be the will be mado as soon as Judge Mc- only remedy. When twenty or thirty Bride returns to this city.

Another law which lias defendants, who are members of the proved a Hat failure is that providing j city council, from voting on the ordi for the burning of slashings. There is nance granting to the Oregon Water only one time to burn a slashing and Power & Railway Company a 85-year that is whon it is ready. All this red freight franchise on Main street on tape business about getting a permit the ground that they are employed by from the county clerk, giving ten tho railway company and for the lur days' notice, etc. , would have been ther reason that bis property would be all right if the Solons had only made ' damagod by the passage of heavy a provision for the right kind of freight trains over the stroet. He al weathor, wind diroctim, oto. , to go leges conspiracy between the council with eaoh permit. As it is, the new imen and the company, law has retarded tho work of clearing The demurrer sets up that the court land in this soetion, aud wo have no , has no jurisdiction of the persons of doubt that a similar condition has re- tho defendants or the subject of the suited in othor parts of the stato. It soonis that the only way for farmers to obtain practical legislation is to elect representatives from among tliem soIvob, regardless of party alliliatious, Aurora Borealis. Oregon's Plight. Half of hor representation undor conviction in tho courts, aud unable to occupy their seats in congress, is tho unenviable distinction that lias conio to Oregon, Ot all the states in the Union, Oregon that h is ever been in is tho only onoi such a pitiable , plight. Added to tho condition is the other ugly fact that of her represent ation yet unconvicted, is undor iudiet niont on grave charges. It is nidood a, huiuilittin gspeetuole.aud it is brought on the state by tho very men the poople have sbt up as thoir sachems, sagos and medicine men, and upon whom the best honors the commonwealth had to give, have been unstintedly showered.

Iu urging the The Newspaper Point of YIew. The merchant who wauts your busi ness and is entitled to your patronage is tho one who advertises. By adver tising he not only shows but also in dicat es a disposition to be a factor in the upbuilding of the whole commun ity. A firm that has no other object in view thau to hold on to all that conies within its grasp, has no liberal policy and assumes an attitude that iudicates sellisliuoss is ono that re tards rather than advances the best in terests of a conmiuuity. It is apparent, also, that such a business concern through its monopolist m tendencies cannot accord its patrons that fair treatment in prices tlmtenu naturally be expected from the firm that is en terprising and in every way loya public interests. Hallos Chronic If to A Good Sussesllon. Tho Graphic wishes to encourage owners of farms in tho neighborhood to give their tarm home suggestive names. It adds a little of sentiment or romance or dignity to country life aud while tho piosaic round of duties to bo done is not lessened, au appro priate name lends attractiveness to home.
