SUBSCRIPTION RATES. Six months 7t Paiu In advance, per year $1 6b A STEP FORWARD' One of the most fitting observances of historical events in the West was observed in Oregon City Sunday, whon the old home of Dr. McLough lin was dedicated in a very flitting manner. Considerable hs been said in oonnectiou with tins event and 'he preserving and moving of the build ing to its present location, and against odds the offloers of the Mc Longhliu Home Association succeeded in having tho structure preserved and moved and its dedication observed. A most deplorablo couditioii has ex istod iu this city for -some yoars, thore have boon factions against fac tious, and every effort for tho better ment of the city and surronnding country brought about by either one' fide or tho other has boeu sidetracked, pilloried, pigeonholed, jailed or buried, until the live element of the city has been bonnm hod ; cold water has been thrown onto caoh forward movement until there is hardly a citizen who has the tomorit.r to oven aaggcst anything that would tend to place our oity in its proper light in the path of tho advancing Wost The past year has witnessed a change for the beUer, the strongest . effort lias boon put forth by tho (Joinmoroial Club with tins end in view, citizens have beon brought together and jostled one another, and have four.d that only by a united effort can the city mako any advancement. 2 This fact has boon known to all, but that little .bigoted, narrow, pes simistic opposition has continued to exist and iu the instance of the pres ervation of the most famous sturcture west of the Kookies the same tooling was again prevalent. Notwithstanding this opposition tho matter bus boon carried to a suc cessful termination witli all honor to its promoters, and the famous old structure 'stands today in its proper place, on the grounds donated by the Doctor, on the crest, overlooking the city, reconstructed aud boautiful, a monument to the grand old man an exhibition of the greatest patriotic aot of a rapidly becoming unitod citizenship. Iu the name of decenoy let tho good work go on. Lat Thursday news was flashed all over tho oivilizod world that the north pole had been discovered. This news came as a great surprise to the soientifio world, as it was from a man who was but little knuwu among the explorers of tho world. In August, 1007 Dr. Frederick A. Cook started out on lus perilous journey to the north pole without making an.v very great fuss and landing it to the' world and little was hoard from him until the news came that he had dis covered the point that ho had started for. Then came the wise men from far and near, some honoring aud bo lioviug what ho Baid, taking it for granted that uo man with an ordinary amouiit of gray matter would under take to work a fake on an intelligent world like this. His many friends and backers were eager to do him honor, and demonstrations have been given wherovor he has gone. The Danish Government showing him the greatest ovations. This nation ready with ho groatest eagernoss to offer protection to tho newly disrovered territory. Then a meteor fell, tho nation blinked. Doublv lmnortunt I our nation folt for what should hap pen, but that Peary, the groat Arotio explorer sinc.o 188(1, should send an electric flash from tho frozen north to tho effect that he too had discovered the great unknown. Yankee grit had doubly conquered tho frozen north, aud had thus created a coinci dence thn world will never see again. Two Americana have planted the flag of ihoir country in the hmd of ice, which man hus sought for cen turies to penetrato, and each ignorant of tho other's conquest. From the year ,"lfi(8 there dates a' long Htory of the terrible suffering mid death iu tho attempted accomplishment of this one grout feat of exploration. Seven hundred mill lifty-three lives have been saorilieed, and untold sufloring has boon endured by tho thousands who have braved tho frozen wastes, actual deaths in single expeditions numbering ;ib high as KS3 souls. To day it is sot tied, there is a north polo, ono half of wllioh appears to belong to Cook and the other half to Peary ; all honor to either. Abraham Lincoln's yearly was $35,'HK). William H.

Theodore Roosevelt made greater professions of devotion to tho people than any preceding president and squeezed more out of them for his personal use I Is the Roosevelt policy to be pursued at the White House in this respect?

You will never save unless you make a start and if you wait until you have a large sum the time may never come and the start never be made. Remember that a small beginning sometimes makes a large ending. Do not put it off any longer but make your first deposit today and we will help you save The Bank of wonder the president insists upon now aud odions taxes in order to raise revenues so as to spend money lavishly in luxury. The present tendencies givo any party a great opportunity which wonld take np seriously the economio doctrines of Jefferson, Web ster and Tildeu, and apply them vig orously to governmental administra tion and expenditure. The Kougli Riding presidential theory of bossing congress, intimidating tho courts, and sporting 'an executive establishment like that of a royal palace is a reversal of the great democratic principles for which the Revolutionary war was fought and won. Tho rendering of the famous de cision iu tho .'donkey case was bronght to mind recently by the death of Norman Buck at Spokane, who iu 188i;was nppointed associate judge of the supreme court of Idaho. He was assigned to the four northern' counties and took up Ins residence at Lewis ton. In his service he had some in teresting experiences. He flrsrt held court at Pierce Citj , the oldest seat of Shoshone county. This was changed to Kaglo, aud the judge was taken up the river iu a canoe to hold the first session in the now court. The discovery of the mines in north ern Idaho shifted the scone and Judge Buck established court at Murray, whero United Biaies oonaior ney burn, W. H. Olaggett, Fred Ganahl, Patrick Henry Winston, Frank Allou, Major Wood, Judge Mayhew aud others wero engaged in the practioe of law. These wore the days when the court room was often filled Jwith miners and when "Teddy" Guthrie, foruior prize fighter and sheriff, stood by the judge and maintained order with drawn revolvers. During that period Judge Huck rendered his fa mous docisiou in the "doukoy case. " Cooper and Peek, who owned the burro, which Kellogg and O'Rourke found while kicking np "pay dirt," instituted suit for a share of the "find." The case .waB tried before Judge Buck aud a jury. The latter had'deeidod against the plaintiffs when the court reversed the finding and handed down his opinion, whioh is part of the judicial records ot Idaho: "From the evidonoe of the witnesses, this court is of the opinion that the Bunker Hill mine was dis covered by tho jackass, Phil O'Rourke and N. S. Kellogg; and as the jackass is the property of the plaintiffs, Cooper and Peck, they are entitled to a half interest in the Hulilvau claims." The caso waB appealed to tlie supreme court, but compromised before it came to trial, Cooper and Pock receiving 176,000 for their share aud many thousands of dollars were distributed among other principals, lawvers and middlemen." During the laHt campaign Marcus M. Marks, president of tho National Clothiers Associntiou, doclared that if Bryan wero elected his company aud other companies would oaueol large number of orders and many workingmen in his trade would be thrown out of employment. At the special session of congress he pro tested unsuccessfully against, repub lican party legislation bv whioh the publio must pay tl), 000, 000 "moro for garments J than they paid last year. This enormous margin is going into the pockets of not more than one hun dred already euormously rioh men. Tho showing made by Mr. Marks and his associates as told by tho Phila dolphiu North Amerioau iu its issue of July 20, is in substanco as follows "Relying on their influence to in sure a high protective tariff on raw wool, tho large wool men in this country have stored away millions of pounds of that product until the tariff bill shall have boon paused by congress. As n rosult, the Amerioau publio will havo to pay $120,000,000 more for its olothing. The average prices for woolens and worsteds for next spring are 25 per cent more in this country than they were last spring. Iu London, the wool market of the world prioes havo advanced only six per cent. " As America's future commercial development will be toward the East, tho visit of the honorary Commercial Commission from Japan now in this country is ot more than passing im portance. Half a huudred trade ex ports roauhed Seattle last waek to tour the United States under the gui dance of the Associated Chambers of Commereo of the Pactio Coast. The federal department of commerce ami labor Is also oo-oporating in tho en tertainment of theso visitors, recog nizing the importance of the inva sion. They bring with them a mos sngo of good will to the American people from the Emperor of Japan aud are instructed to use all their influence to promote more extended trade relations between tho two na tions. Baron Shibusawa, tho leading busiueg liuiii of Japan, is at tho head of the delegation, whioh will remain iu this country three months The surplus at the end of President Cleveland's term was figured about $ 1,000,000. ' At tho end of President Harrison's term tho statisticians show there was a deficit of $3,500,000. An now President Roosevelt leaves a de ficit somewhere between $S0, 000,000 ami $100,000,000. That's the contrast between a demooratio aud a republi can administration. But thou Presi dent Cleveland's conception of the great office precluded the thought of using the government Halluces for privilege and patronage. Oregon City Extraordinary attractions aro booked for the coming annual meet of the Portland Fair & Livestock Show, dur ing the weok ol September 20-25, and'the event is expected to be tho biggest of its kind ever held in the Northwest. Harness aud running races, livestock show and special features will occupy the six days. Probably the biggest days will be Thursday, September 23, which is Willamette Vail y day, and Friday, Septembor 21, which is Columbia River Va ley day. The first will be open day for all the towns of Western Oregon where the livestock industry and the harness racing game have been so well developed of recent years. Officials and commercial bodies of the various ;towns will co-oporat with the coui'uittoe iu making it a big oo casion. The following day, too, will be marked by tho presence of thou sands of out-of-town guests, as at tractive railroad rates have boen made from all points. In addition Friday will be ladies' dav and special ove"ts will be carded. President Wnorung of the association has takon up the work of organizing his committee and they will get to work at once to make the forthcoming meet the most notable ever held iu this seotiou of the country. The meet, will be hold on tho grounds of the association east of Portland. This year's sessions will, undoubtedly, havd a marked effect in building up the livestock industry iu the Paoific Northwest. A remarkable shipment of big Ore Ron logs were loaded on board the steamship Emma S. Dollar iu Portland this week. The logs are very large, being 105 feet long and 40 feet in cir cumference. There are 24 of the big sticks aud they are being consigned to China, where they will be used to rebuild the temple Ling Yen, the most famous house of worship in all China. The Chinese government purchased them hore for the purpose. They will be rafted up the Grand Oanal iu China for 200 miles aud taken overland six miles to the temple. The only pos sible way to gut thu big sticks this distauce is for coolies to carry them on their backs. This seems impos sible but it is actually done in China in transporting big timbers over mountain trails, as will be done in this case. Oregon's many products are now being gathered at the annual harvest and aro adding largely to tho wealth of the state and tho various items that enter into the yearly return from the soil make a fine showing individually and collectively. The . state's wool clip, which has now boon about all marketed, will put $-4,000,000 in the pockets of sheep raisers of the state. The year's clip amounted to 20,450.000 pounds of fine quality and good prices wero realized, Eastern Oregon wool getting a maximum price of 2!1 cents and the Willamette valley crop roach a I ing a top price of 20 cents. The soa- i son was ideal lor wool growers. Fleeces were heavier than usual and the grade of the product is high. The wool monoy will bo divided quite gen erally throughout the state. Iiotholl, on the shores of Lake Washington, appears to be the one oasis iu tiie desert, so far as saloon men are concerned. It is the first community to reject the local option program of no license in the state of Washington. At tho recent eleotion there was au excess of throe votes for saloons, and the dispensers of the oil of joy celebrated by giving away beer free of obargo to all comers. As it stands now no-license has carried iu four cities. ; Colville is the next to vote on the proposition and the outcome is awaited with much in terest by the rest of tho state. Frank K. Nebokor of Logan, Utah, who is tho Utah member of the demo cratic national committee and one of tho beBt known lawyers of that soo tion of the country, is to join the legal department of the Orogon Short Line. On Septermber 1st Mr. No booker will beoomo assistant attorney of the system. His success as a trial lawyor was the reason for the offer of from the rail mud which ho has ac cepted. Probably the largest shipment of phoasants ever raised iu captivity by one growi r in the country will be shipped by R. F. Simpson, of Le banon, to the Idaho game warden, and tho birds will bo turned loom to stock the state for the Idaho Imniois. Mr. Simpson will send a carlot.d and be is said to bo tho only man m America who could fill suoh a big order. North Pole parties aro all the go now. The ion cream parlors are dishing up the frozen sweets under a similar name, and even some of those anti-statement fellows in Portland havo taken on a frigid att'tndo Just a plain cold-blooded proposition. It is a frozen shame Hint graft, is the cry at the North Pole already, yet, so soon. They might have waited about that charge of lost fox skins till the ipola had a real live introduction. Washington is in a way to bo wrecked, savs the Oregouian 'u speak ing of U'Ren visiting that state. That paper seems to take delight in reiterating the great strength of the law giver. In With Rich Sample T. B. Fairclough came in from the Ogle Mountain Mine Ta. siluy and has with him some samples taken out of tho end of the new tunnel which the boys are driving at the foot of the mountain. Already they havo reached a distance of over 815 feet and are iu tho mineral zone al ready. They have in view pushing the tunnel several hundred feet fur ther ami it is there thev have expected to make the rich strike One would think from the excellent samples now on exhibition at the company's office that there had nrlrcady been au unusually good strike and "if the ore continues to improve as it has in the past few hundred feet, it will far ex cel in quality the upper end of this valuable chute. .

Since the 8-hour law became effective ami since the wireless companies are establish ing stations throughout the country thore is'a great shortage of telegra phors.

Albany Democrat: Several thou sand dollars are left iu Albany every month by people passing through, some at the hotel Vaudran. some with the two lunch houses, both of whicn are doing fine businesses, some with the sandwioh mercliauts who get closer to the trains than the ordinance allows, aud some with the Ham burger man iu the odd little house on wheels. It is quh a traffic, close to $5,000 a mouth, one that helps Albany generally. Eugene Guard: If the people of Eugene go ahead aud.bnild a railroad from Eugene to the ooast they will not have to worry about where the terminal oil this end of the line will be, as iu the case of the Natron ex tension. Aud if, lifter we get started, Jim Hill should come down through the McKenzie pass and take our little road over, making it a part of a trunk system well, none of us would feel particularly sorry about such an outcome. Rainier is still after moro improve nients. A $88,600 job for 20 blocks of graded and macadamized srteet is now half completed. The $15,000 coutract for complete , sower system in districts Nos. 2 and 3 is also partly. nuished. Rids are to be opened on August 23 for three contraols of street work which will amount to flo.uuu. The plans for the new Rainior fire housa are almost ready for bids. Dallas Itemizer: Wages of hop pickers on the big Erubs yard at in dependence has been raised from 50 cents to 00 cents a box, as announced by Conrad Krebs a few days ago. He Bays that he believes this advance is justified by the .higher market price of hops this year. Last year growers paid 50 cents a box to pickers aud sold theii hops at 7 or 8 cents a pound. Grants Pass Courier: Joseph Moss, who'was instructed by theOommercial Club to make an investigation of the feasibility of opening a waterway'for gaoline and other beats over the ob structions in the' Roane river betwe n this city and the Anient dam, is at work and will be able to report to the club in the near future. La Grande Observer : A crew of thirty-five men, a portion of them foreigners, loft for the intake of the Beaver Creek pipe line about noon today, inaugurHting factual construc tion of the $140, 000 project, for which LaGrandd had striven, aud seriously too, for a period of many years. J That the excursion of the Portland real estate men to Forest Grove next Saturday will bo a great success is now an assured fact. This is the first excursion of the season under the auspices of tho Realty Board, and two-thirds of tho tickets were disposed of in about two hours' time. The $00,000 school bonds have ar rived from Chicago and are being ifigned up. They will have to be registered with the oouuty treasurer and then sent baok to Chicago before the money to pay for the new school houses is forth coming. Eugene Register. At the regular monthly ineotiug of the Lebanon Business Men's League toe matter of taking np the procuring of au apple exhibit for Lebanon and vininity at the forthcoming apple fair in Albany next mouth, was acted upon favorably. A number of the sub-contractors on the Southern Pucciflo Company's Na tron extension have been in Eugene for the past week or so awaiting the arrival of their construction outfits. Club women from all seotious of the state numbering probably 300, will be entertained bv the meinor of the Forest Grove Woman's Club iu that city Octoer 14.15, IK. All the necessary parts of tho new turbine-generator for the electric plant at Springfield aro now there and the machine will be running in a few days.

The contract for building the school building at Lebanon has been let to John McCliesney of Albany, for fill, 310, suvst tho Lebanon Express. Aocordiug to flguros just made, the value of the Willamette valley's wool clip this year is placed at $1,500,000. . Corvallis is talking strongly of pav ing her principal streets.

Pass may lay bitulithic Mining; Pays Dos it pay; is Mining : our while? it worth Mining, much maligned, held up to derision, laughod at, has shown fewer failures than any other branch of in dustry. And yet with the Drepon derauee of evidence on its side, people cannot understand that there is truth to the statement that "mining pays Perhaps theie is cause for their slow edncation, no doubt there is oause, but it should not be blamed on mining. Let us be fair right at the outset aud argue the thing out. First, men aud women don't believe in mining because some have lost money through mining investments. But thut they invested in pretty stories most of the time, and not in mining is only too true. Tins tact should not give mining a black eye. Right along, the wiser men have been crying out in stentorian tones, "Investigate! If the invest ors have not hooded that advice, is mining at fault? If they have placed their money in the hands of dosiguiug promoters, is that because mining is crooked? And' even if this class of men have invaded a legitimate field, is that any reason for frightening in vestors away f om roal mining? Education often costs considerable, but w':eii a person is educated, why should he not profit by that educa tion? Real mining pays. When you mvest in the stock ot a company don't look for the "best," for you will never find it. Look for a good oue, then invest, and do it quickly. Don't wait to see if it pans out all right, for that is where you lose your opportunity. When you have waited to see if it pans out you will havo to pay a premium cu the stock, and you will have lost the biggost advanoa in value. You must make money on your judgment and foresight, aud not on demonstrated facts. Whon you find a mining company that is on the square and lias a prop erty that you positively know is ot the right kind don't be afraid to get in with them, is a piece of advice given by some of the most promineut mining engineers in America re cently.

Camping: at 'he State Fair One of the pleasures for many per sous attending the annual Oregon State Fair at Salem is the privilege of being numbered among the residents of the tented city just outside of the main entrance to the lair grounds. Eaoh family is allowed on the eamp iue ground a space of twenty feet frout on the street aua thirty foot back for cauipiug purposes. By this means the camping ground has the appear ance of a white canvas city during the entire week of the fair, as thousands of people come from a distauce to enjoy au outing and at the same time participate in the pleasures of the exposition weok. All intending campers are required to apply to 5the superiutendent of the camping ground for campers' certificates, which will entitle them to the right to purchase "cauipers' tickets."
