HIGH COMPLIMENT FROM EMINENT
SOURCE.
Oregon fiir never bad a compliment
paid which meant bo nmoh as the ed
itorial which appeared in the Arneri
can Lnmberman of last week, tlie
world's leading lumber journal
j. E. Defobangh, editor or the per
lodical and known to every lumber'
man in the country, personally penned
the editorial, which says in part:
"Doner las fir needs no stain to make
it beautiful in color, it does not have
to be carefully selected for grain,
takes a tine finish and is strong and as
hard as many of the woods used for
finer purposes. On the Paoiflo coast
are many 13 uo rcsidonoes and niagni
lioent oliloe buildings in which this
wood is used. It will not supplant
mahogany and oak, bnt should be
nsed side by side with them and for
substantially the same purposes."
Mr. Defebaugh urges its careful
consideration by eastern architects.
For the time the country has been
occupied with the campaign and ap
pears to be ignoring the sinister
growth of lawlessness. Now that the
campaign is finished the condition of
things in the touacoo belt, in the cot
ton states and in Tennesse will loom
in menaoing proportions. These con.
ditions are anarchistic. The night
riders must be subdued no matter
what the cost in men and money. We
cannot say that the recent Tennessee
tragedy is without parallel because
similar instances have been for months
of fieauent occurence. There, two
men, respectable oitizens, were taken
from a hotel and cue ot thorn hanged
and his body riddled with bullets
while tiie other escaped a similar fate
by accident assisted by darkness,
The governor of the state appearing
UDon the scene, far from being wel
come, was threatened witii death.
"The law be d . In these parts
we are a law unto ourselves : we mark
whom we please for death and are our
own executionors. You go about your
business or we will give you a dose of
the medioine." liovernor Patterson
has gone about his business and some
fifty of these people are under arrost
and the execution of every one in the
gang that hung Lawyer Rankin would
be the most salutary thing for the
state and the oountry that oould imp-
pen.
Wo are a groat country, our wealth

Thirty-three of Albany's leading
business men came to Portland lust
Friday to personally invite the bnsi
nesi nion of chat city to participate in
a colouration at Albany on Tuesday,

time. ,

turned to Madras Tuesday evening.
They crossed the mountains with a
team and report the roads very bad.
They traveled one and a half days iu
snow which was two feet deep in
places. The most of the trouble was
that so many trees had fallen in the
road, which it . took time to clear
away. The company who collect toll
should be made to pay for buoIi work,
as they guaranteed the road to be
open, which it was as far as Govern
ment Camp, the end of the automo
bile route. The east side of the di
vide is practically kept open by the
traveling public and the company col
lects the toll just the same. The toll
company should be compelled to keep
the road in repair or lose the toll.

How Is Your Digestion?
Mrs. Mary Dowlicg, of No. 228 8th
Ave., San Francisco, recommends a
remedy for stomach trouble. She
says: "Gratitude for the wonderful
effect of Eleotrio Bitters in a case of
acute indigestion, prompts this testi
monial. 1 am fully oonvinned that
for stomach and liver trouhlos Eleo
trio Bitters is the best remedy on the

A GOOD STOMACH.
Means Good Health, Cheerfulness,
Ambition, Persistency and Success,
Relief is not cure: opium will stop
the most excruciating pain, but It
won't cure the disease.
And it is just the same with alleged
dyspepsia cures which contain pepsin,
The pepsin will help digest the food,
but the stomach is left in worse con
dition than it was before.
You don't want any pepsin to di
gest your food; you want the natural
juices of your stomach to digest your
food. If you have dyspepsia or any
saimach trouble, you want to make
your stoinarch so strong that it will
digest its own food.
You can make your stomach so
strong that you can eat what you
wish and all you want any time you
want it, without distress. .
Mi-o-na will cure your dyspepsia or
any other stomach trouble by building
up the flabby walls, and making the
stomach so Btrong that it will digest
food without artificial aid.
Jones Drug Co. is the agent for Mi-
o-ne In Oregon City and they say to
every reader of the Oregon City Cour
ier whose stomach is weak, who has
indigestion or dlspepsia, that Ml-on-na
Is guaranteed to cure or money
back.
The price is only 50 cents a box,
and one box is all you will need to
prove that you are on the right road
to health and happiness.
"I can't say enough about Ml-o-na
tablets; they have done more for me

their care, and I will do all I can to

can also use my name In your ad, if
you like, for Mi-o-na is better than
gold to me. I am like a new man, and
am able to work once more for the

REFLECTIONS ON
"THE ONE-TALENT-MAN"
"Unto one lie gave five talents, to another
two, and to another one; to every man ac
cording to bis several ability."
This one-talent-man is not a particular individual;
he represents a'class. Of one-hundred men, ninety
nine are to some extent like him, 'and one ' leads the
way of progress, development and great achievment.
It was not intended that there should be one master
and many slaves. Evolution of the races has been
constantly away from this once general condition.
The triumph of civilization will manifest itself that
day on which we behold every man a King. In spite
of the biting East wind, in spite of blasting frosts the
tender shoot becomes the blossoming flower. In spite
f dwarfing influences, the despot's heel, ignorance
and law-compelled inequality, struggling humanity
will come into her glory. Who in some reflective
moment has not caught a glimpse of the far away, un
certain light? Who has not longed for the passing
-of the age wherein the many labor for the profit of the
few? Who would not wish to see Every Man a King?
The one-talent-man sits by. He has no thought of
progress, of better things. He has digged in the ground
and hid his talent. What would be thought of the
farmer who, for fear of losing it, would not sow his
seed? What better is he, who, for fear of losing it,
hoards his gold? to be sure there is some hazard. No
where in the whole field of human action is there free
dom from chance. Does the presence on Earth of this
one-talent-man offend? In this respect only; where
the weed stands useful vegetation might have grown.
Within the blasting shadow of this one-talent-man the
coming champion of liberty and equality may struggle
for a foothold. His influence is no more easily esti
mated than is the evil effect of the tares in a wheat
field. Who is this one-talent-man? "fou? No, No!
Your neighbor? Yes, you're thinking of him now;
yes, its your neighbor, certainly. You have often
thought how much better off the community would be
withouthim. You have possibly wondered what very
little things could be written on his headstone, truth
fully, that would look just a little good. You couldn't
think of anything, could you?
What shall we do with him? eliminate him? Impos
sible! Regenerate him? Yes, that's it; regenerate him.
Within him are the smouldering embers of worth. Fan
them into a flame. A happy word may kindle the fire
that will light the World. This one-talent-man may
yet put his hidden treasure to worthy purpose. Out
of the narrow cell of self he may emerge, a component
part of the broader better life.
To be continued.
NOTB: These articles may have the desired effect
of causing the reader to turn the eye of introspection
momentarily on himself. He may realize that there is
a field for him to labor in. The"enterprise mentioned
in the lines immediately following this note is but the
beginning of a comprehensive plan. It is the opening
wedge. The unqualified success of this enterprise must
be shown. Then will be the time for the next step.
THE PRACTICAL SIDE
Perhaps you are traveling In a beaten path. Possibly, today, you
live yesterday over again. Possibly you are In the habit of living the
tame day over and over again, 365 days of the year. Then It will be
some time before you are In the notion of entertaining a little change
of programme. But you'll get around to it. You are the man we are
talking to. After this, read In following Issuei of this paper, "Reflec
tions on the One-Talent Man."
You learned to stand alone when tome two year of age. You are
old enough to learn to THINK alone now. Did It ever occur to you
that most people NEVER DO learn to think alone? When you feel
that you can listen to something a little out of the ordinary we are
going to propose that you become one of the 300 Individuals who, as
proprietors, are going to constitute the foundation of a great mercan
tile enterprise.
Don't hold up your hands In horror. You have contributed your
share toward the building up of many a great enterprise. The only
difference Is this: You didn't retain any evidence of the money you
put in the business so the title to the sky-scraper, the block It occupies
and the goods it contains the title to it Is all In the other fellow. But
your money did the work your money built the palace of the poor
merchant who used to sell you goods in a dingy little shack on a side
street This Is the "other side" of the story of the rise from the poor
clerk to the millionaire merchant.
Perhaps you, kind reader, before you have gotten this entirely off
your mind, will be prepared to become one of the 300. You like, no
doubt, to do what most every one else Is doing. That is because, like
mott every one else, you want others to think for you. But remember
this: The man who goes to the front Is the man who gets out of the
beaten path. He gets out of the old rut, cuts across lots, and while
the multitude plods along he bobs up far ahead. When you have
thought of all the possible reasons why you should NOT be one of the
proprietors of the establishment where you do business, then you will
be prepared to consider the reasons we are going to advance why you
SHOULD BE one of the proprietors. This later.
E. W. Melllen & Co., is a corporation, organized for the purpose of
dealing In all merchandise needed In the complete equipment of a
home. The stockholders elect three directors and they conduct the
business through a manager selected by them. Par value of the stock
Is $10 per share and there are 600 shares unsold, which are now
placed on the open market.
