Six montba 7 Palo In advance, per year II lb OIVE THE FARMER A SQUARE DEAL Oregon City today ought to have a population of 50,000 souls and would have that number had the early set tlers possessed soffloient foresight to grasp the wonderful opportunities provided by nature. Bat that is a matter of the past. What we have to oontend with now is the present. As a general rule communities do not prosper without the enthusiastic sup port of all the people. If we expect to grow, or even maintain the popula tion we now have we must get to gether. The Commercial Club is do ing a splendid work in making known the advantages of our city as a place of residence and for business oppor tunities. Hat it cannot carry on the work without assistance. It needs the earnest co-operation of every man, woman and child in the community. .They should act as a unit. When away from home our oitizens should not feel the slightest tinge when they announce that they are residents of Oregon City. We want to be able to speak with pride of our people and our progress. During the past ten years the population of Oregon City has inoraesed nearly one hundred per oent. The year 1911 promises to be a record breaker in the way of immi gration. The two great railway lines are going to spend millions and mil lions of dollarsjin the work of railway construction. While Oregon City is not on the direct line of any of these contemplated improvements, yet it is near enough to receive, on account of its aoessibility, great additions to its population. It is lour duty to double our population during the next five years, but in order to do so we must not only be on the lookout for new and healthy enterprises, but we must see to it that business we now possess is not driven to other localities. One of the great needs ot Oregon Oity is warehouse room sufficient for the storage of all Che products direotly tributary thereto. The farmer must not be met at the door of the meroh act with the statement that he is very sorry but that just at present he is largely overstocked with the produce on his wagon and does not need any thing at present, and yet, perhaps he might give him a little something for his load rather than have him haul it back home. As a general rule the farmer is as well posted as the mer chant and he knows what his products ought to bring. lie knows that there iB always a cash demand in Portland for all kinds of farm produce; that shipped in large quantities the cost of transportation is very trifling, and that it is a very easy matter for the meroliaut to dispose of his surplus stock. If the farmer is oompelled to A-dipo8e of his load at a scarifioe the entire oommunity suffers, as the next time lie lias a load to dispose ot he will seek another outlet, although the distance to be traveled might be much greater. Qive the farmer a square deal and send him home with the happy assuranoe that we are a com munity of intersts and are all labor ing for each other's welfare, whioh in the end comes home to each one in dividually. At the little town of Oanby, only a short distance from Oregon.City, there are three large warehouses, and it is no uncommon sight to see twelve or flfteenwagons lined up in front of them nnloading their contents. Farmers do not dispose of their pro ducts at Canby and come down to Or egon Oity to do their trading, al though it would probably be to their advantage to do so. They trade where they. sell. The roads "leading to Canby are in no better condition than the roads leading to Oregon Oity, and yet one seldom sees more than two or three loaded teams to gether on the streets of this oity. There must be a reason. Every time the dyspoptio editor of the Portland Oregouiau has an aoute attaok he takes a whack at the poor old soldiers, now tottering on the brink of the grave, who imperilled their lives to preserve the republio nearly flttyjyears ago. If the editor of the Oregonlan, or anyone else lor that matter, is sure that there are namos ou the pension roll that do not belong there, it is their duty to report the same to the pension examiner at Portland and that gentleman will probably take steps to at ouoe prose cute the impostors. The sensational reports of muckraking newspapers of great frauds in the pension depart nient are given no oredonoe in Wash ington. According to President Taft's last annual message the old veterans are passing over the great river at the rate of 8,000 a month, with the ratio increasing as the months roll by. At that rate in less than ten years taps will have been sounded for the last survivor and the Oregonlan will then have to find some other method of veutiug its spleen. THE OLD If yotf wish to send money to the old country yotf can do so easily and cheaply through this bank. We issue drafts pay able in all civilLted countries. The Bank of THE OLDEST BANK A PULL TOGETHER The recently organized Oregon City Fruit and Produoe Union is meeting with much encouragement. Some of the foremost farmers and fruit grow ers in Clackamas county are members of the organization and they expect to be able to hande all produce tributary to Oregon Oity during the coming season. The onion was organized by the farmers and will be maintained by them, and if our merchants desire to seoure their trade they must see to it that they are justly dealt with.' Reports come from Washington to the effect that the war department is preparing to send several thousand troops into Ouba in anticipation of the collapse of the Gomez govern ment, which is barely two vsart old. American interests in the islands are very large and the administration feels that it ought to be prepared to protect them. Under the Piatt amendment the United States is, and is in reality, pledged to maintain or der in Cuba. This stipulation oom pelled us to intervene in 1906. If the oivll authority at Havana breaks down it will be more sorious for Ouba than it was in 1906, as at that time the republic was only four years old and self-government an experiment. The Gomez government represents the second attempt at self-government and a collapse now would probably mean that the Uinted States would be oompelled to take permanent posses sion of the islands. Annexation sen timent in Ouba is very strong among all classes of business men. The pop ulation of Ouba has inoreased 80 per oent since 1899, and this increase was made possible because the United States stood ready to intervene in case of trouble. American sentiment for annexation is not very pronounced. Professor Henry Jones Ford, of Princeton University, has oome way out to Oregon to tell the people that they do not know anything about rep resentative government. Oregon is the only place in the ' world, the learned professor says, where the in itiative and referendum exists in the form we have it. He thinks Oregon ians have run wild on the subject of direct legislation, and says that chose who have made a special study of the matter predict a return of old meth ods in the not distant future. The professor admits that it is sometimes necessary to have an emltio to clean out an old inteotion, but that having been accomplished there is no neces sity for a continuance of the present system. As long as this law suits Oregoniana the professor will have to stand it until we want it repealed. A convention of the National Tariff Association is to be held in Washing ton on January 11 and 12for the pur pose of oreating a tariff commission which! will command the confidence of the people and result in finally tak ing'the tariffquestion out of politics, or of :at least oonvinoing the politi cians in all parts of the oountry that there is a strong sentiment among the people favoring the formation of a new tarl It measure along nonpartisan linos. That the present tariff is un fair is generally admitted even by those who participated in framing the law. The purpose of the convention at Washington will be to make the tariff board, or commission, perma nent, andfput the tariff where it be longs, upon a nign level oi commer oial intelligence and honor. PoBtal savlngB banks were opened throughout the country on January a, one postofflce in eaoh state being des ignated as a depository. Klamath Falls.has been seleoted as a trial office in Oregon. As soon as the machinery gets to working smoothly an office will be established in every money order office in the country. By the terms of the law no account of less than fl will be opened and no deposit of more than $100 will be received at one time. A limit of $500 is placed on eaoh depositor. Prinoipal and in terest oan be drawn out at any time. The operation of the scheme will be watched by Hnanoial men with a great deal of interest. Publicity has proved so valuable in dealing with great corporations that Secretary Nagel of the department of ooinnieroe and labor, in his'annual re port, suggests that there should be a federal publicity bureau to deal with faots relating to great corporations. He olaims that iodoral action is neces sary, as no state system oan cover the subjet comprehensively. A cen tral agency, suoh as he proposes, would afford reliable information on the management of our great com mercial organizations. There would be an aoourate basis for intelligent ac tion on the part of legislators and others and there would be no further oooasion for unjust prejudioe. It is said that President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt have been in close communication for many weeks. They write to eaoh other almost daily, and if there ever was any break be tween them those who ought to know say that it has been healed. Rlnlmrd P. Ilnbson. of Alabama, is so afraid that a war with Japan is imminent that he has introduced a bill in the housejof rep resentatives to create a board of na tional defense. COUNTRY Oregon City IN THE COUNTY To one be twteen the United States and Great Britain. The association hopes that the United States will aaa to tne cei ebration by withdrawing the war ves sels from the great lakes.

AH thfiV An of no particular use and as they seem f rt mn,rv rtnr rnnaina nnrnflfl fhfi hor- der they might as well be consigned to tne judk neap. Thousands of pounds of blaok wal nuts and acorns are being shipped by the government from Arkansas to District Forester Chapman or Port land 'to be distributed for seed through out Jthe r burned-over forest areas of the Paoifio Northwest. Forest rangers will take oharge of planting the seed and within the next quarter center; it is ex doc ted Oregon will have great quantities of hard woods available for furniture making and other uses. Portland proposes to celebrate Dew ey Day, May 1, 1911, in a manner long to be remembered. 1 The cruiser Boston, which is credited with navins fired the first gun in the Spanish American war, will be in the harbor, acting as a training ship for the Ore gon Naval Reserve, and the same gun that fired ou the Spaniards in Manila Bay will boom out a salute to Ad miral Dewey. ' That great sea fighter is to be Invited to attend the rortiana celebration. A project to create a reserve for mule tail deer in the lava bed region of Klamath county has been started and the matter will be brought to the attention of President Taft. Opposi tion has developed, however, on the part of sheepmen who want to retain the lava bed country for winter range. Tbey oontend the deer reserve should be created in the mountains near by. Trade with the Philippine Islands is increasing with leaps and bounds. In 1899 the total imports amounted to 113.113,010. while in 1910 it amounted to $37,067,630. In 1899 the exports from the islands amounted to fiu.ittits, 912, and in 1910 the total exports amounted to $39,864,169, the United States receiving nearly nineteen mil lion of the total exports. Wealth in Oregon streams, as well as in the fertile soil of the Beaver state, is shown by the figures of the annual taka of salmon in '.Oregon waters, chiefly the Ooumbia river. A total of 290,000 cases, 35,000,000 pounds, was packed during the past year, having a valne of fa.ouo.uuu. Eugene boosters will build a home for their commercial olub. The club will incorporate and issue bonds, ereoting a five or six Jstory building for their quarters and leasing such surplus space as there may be. The Eugene club is very much alive, hav ing lately added a large number ot members and a big promotion fund is now being raised. A large increase in the general state fund is sown during the last two years ahcording to the "report of the seore tary of state. Receipts amount to $3,762,939, against $2,805,405 for the preceding biennialperlod, SUMMARY OP THE WEEK Fifty thousand railway conductors and trainmen were made happy ou New Year's day by an increase of ten per oent in their salaries. George'S. Walker, secretary of the National Wool Growers' Associaition, says sheep raising is passing a crucial test, and that if the tariff agitators succeed in reducing the duty on wool, one of the greatest industries on the Paoifio slope will be ruined. George Simms, the potato king, of Stockton. Oal., has 900,000 sacks of spuds on hand and he prediots that before another crop is harvested pota toes will be retailing at four oents per pound. Very snoesstul results have been ob tained by the innoculation of troops with tyhphoid fever germs, and there ia now hope that by the general adop tion of this system people may be safe guarded against the disease. The members of the bath tub trust want to plead guilty and pay a fine. but the attorney general deolines to accept a fine and says they must go to jail. Chief Forester Henry S. Graven, in his annua) report says 74 per cent of the fires in 1909 were due to lack ot preventive oares on the part of the users of the forests. In foreign coun tries, where they are well organized, the fire risk is so small that forests are insured'at a very moderate rate. The foreign commerce of the United States for the year 1910 is the largest in the history of tiie country, the to tal of exports and imports amounting to $3,400,000,000, the exports exceed ing the imports by $300,000,000. The export of manufactured articles shows a gain of 65 per cent in ten years. The grand jury of Adams county. Ohio, have returned indictments against 1225 voters for selling their votes at lust eleotion. the prioe paid to the voter ranging from $2 to $35. Seattle is to vote in Fetruary on the recall of Mayor Gill. Since Gill was eleoted Washington has adonted female suffrage and Gill's friends am afraid of the outcome. John B. Moissaut and Arch Hoxey, America's foremost aviators, were killed on Saturday, Moissaut at New Orleans and lioxey at Los Angeles. Andrew Caruegle has given $1,250, 000 to establish a hero fund in Ger many. England's interference in Persia to prevent illicit gun-running and high-' way robbery is not iclished by the Gremau authorities, as they think England is trying the same game in Persia that Frauoe did in Morocco.

There was a time when a workman In England received 8 cents a day as an ordinary wage, when skilled ar tisans commanded 12 cents a day and when women worked In the field at such tasks as reaping straw, hoeing, planting beans and washing sheep for 2 cents a day, and a wise student of the subject has expressed the opin ion that the British workman of that day was better off than he has ever been since then. That sounds paradoxical. But the explanation is this: Tile workman who sold his services for 8 cents a day could buy good beef or mutton for 1 cents a pound. Wheat cost him on the average only 18 cents a bushel. He could get board for 12 to 16 cents a week. The pay he would receive for fifteen weeks' services would suffice to purchase a supply of suitable food stuffs, according to the standard of his time (consisting of wheat, malt and oatmeal), to maintain his family for an entire year. Under these circumstances 8 cents a day increased to 12 cents in harvest time was a fair wage, and "times were good" for the average workman, McClure's Magazine. Optra In Dumb Show. The late Clara Novello in her remi niscences tells how Mullbran once ap peared in "Sonnambula" without ut tering a note. ' She had taken cold and was prevented from singing at the Inst moment, though crowds of early comers already filled the house. "On the manager telling her, in de spair, that, besides loss of money, theso disappointed people would be dangerous sb! Bald, 'I can't speak above my breath; I should have to do It In dumb show!' Bunn at once caught at this outburst ns if seriously meant and ou his knees begged ber to try this, and she, fired by the nov elty, did so. The grateful public rav ed in praise of this surprising tour dc force, and the sensation It made filled the papers." Bathing Machines. Somebody has Inquired why "bath ing machines," the comfortable priva cy of which for ocenn bathing has never attracted bathers In this coun try, are called machines, remnrkln. that there is nothing of a machine about them except the horse which draws them to the bench. The answer has been found in the new Oxford Dictionary. It appears that a "ma chine" was originally a "structure of any kind, material or immaterial," and has nothing to do with machinery, a later word. Ships were called ma chines, and it would have been proper to speak of a pulpit as a machine, Argonaut DEEDS, NOT WORDS Oregon City People Have Abso lute Proof of Deeds at Home It's not words but deeds that prove hub merit.

We of this big republic couiplaceut ly affirm the glory of our national achievements and are not without temptation to acclaim them as proof of superior craft and judgment. But herein do we forget that we are on record ns having cast our vote against every move that bus contrib uted to the present century's develop ment. We raised our voices In contemptu ous protest against the first projected railways. Had the locomotive waited Its signal from the people It would not yet have started. When the electric telegraph was shown to us we brushed it nskle ns a toy and laughed Us Inventor to scorn when he offered to sell us his rights for a few thousand dollars. We put into jail as an Impostor the first man who brought anthracite coal to market. We broke to pieces Howe's sewing machine ns an Invention culou latcd to ruin the working classes, and we did the same thing to the harvester and the binder. We scorned the type writer as h plaything. We gathered together In mass meet ings of indignation at the first pro posal to install electric 1 trolley lines, and when Dr. Bell told us he had in vented an instrument by means of which we might talk to one another across the town we responded with accustomed ridicule, and only the reck less among us contributed It Its be ing. Atlantic Monthly. v HUMAN DISSECTION. Surgery and the Anatomists In the Olden Days. For a long time Alexandria was the only medical center of the world, and the physician Galen, born about 130 A. D., had to journey from Rome to the African city even to see a skele ton. He sent his students to the Get- man battlefields to dissect the bodies of the national enemies, while he him self used apes as most resembling hu man beings. Human dissection was revived In Bologna in the fourteenth century, where Madonna Manzolina later was professor of anatomy, un doubtedly one of the first women doc tors, If not the very first. Leonardo da Vinci, painter of "The Last Sup per," was a great anatomist, but dlS' section had fallen Into disuse when Vessllus finally revived it about the middle of the sixteenth century. Even in comparatively modern times anatomists have been the object of at tacks by the populace. In 1705 Dr. John Shippen of Philadelphia was mobbed as a grave robber. Doctors' riots In New York occurred twenty- three years later and were due to the belief that the medical students rob bed graves continually. It was the lack of opportunity to obtain subjects regularly that led to the practice of grave robbing and originated what Dr. Keene calls "a set of the lowest possible villains the resurrectionists." New York World. Do You Help Others? It has been tritely said that for ev ery one who stands alone there are twelve to lean against him. How is It with you? Are you one of those against whom others lean for help and encouragement, or are you leaning against some one and drawing your inspiration and courage from him? It depends entirely on yourself whether you take a positive attitude in your work or whether your negative char acteristic shall dominate. It is much easier to go through life making as little effort as possible, but it is a poor wny If we are going to make life, yield even a small modicum of what it holds for us. If you are work ing earnestly and hoping for success there is only one way to attain It, and that is through your positive charac teristics. Philadelphia Ledger. Julius Caesar. Caesar was assassinated March 15, 44 B. C, and was at the time of his death fifty-six years old. It is not alone as a military genius that his fame endures. By almost common consent he was the most remarkable all round man of antiquity masterful ly great not only as general, but as writer, statesman and administrator.
