The industrial exposition that is drawing to a close in Portland has heeii greatly U'lt elirial to the whole Northwest. So far as can I judged it has been a complete suc cess. It is not designed to be a money making institution, and its object is accom plished even if the financial statement should not show a large surplus. Thous ands of people went thereto observe what stens had been taken in industrial progress in this new country, and many sought to make a comparison between the exhibits of this year and those of the previous annual expositions. Of course many patrons of this industrial fair were merely there for amusement or tor idle sight-seeing, but to j tnose wno have more serious business in life the fair was a means of education that was not lost It is safe to say that every one of the nu merous visitors from Clackamas county re gretted that there was no representative ex hibit of the product and industries of this county in the exposition. One of the rich est counties of the state in natural product, second only to Multnomah in its manufao turvs, Clackamas showed absolutely noth ing that would lead the home-seeker or ruamifacturerorcapitalist to investigate the tueriU of this locality. The information about this county that even the moderately informed traveller should possess conld not be obtained in the greatest industrial fairon the Pacific slop held not a dozen miles away. It is to be hoped that no such opportunity shall pass unimproved hereafter. If we do not take pride in our own affairs, in our own town and county, we can scarcely ex pect others to become enthusiastic in our behalf. We must make our county and its products worthy to be proud of and then challenge the admiration of others. tent to tormulale the Itnancial policy of the government will harshly criticise a college president for attempting to diagnose their . case.

If the Mis were deep-toned ami were tolled mitli dignity they would not be such a severe trial to the nerves, but the way the present sharp toned instrument of torture are twitched does not tend to promote a christian spirit in those w ho are within range of their sound. The persistence with which the Mis are rung much more than coiuefiates for their lack of sine and tone. The Mis of the city The Xaften Campaign. Politics are warming up considerably in the East. The state election to occur next month will be more than usually signifi cant. The chief interest is in the states of New York, Ohio and Iowa. The contest for the governorship of Sew York always holds more or less that is of national import, but just now it is interesting because of the sus picion that New York will no longer be a pivotal state in national campaigns by rea son of the growth of the West, and people incurious to see how she drops from her position of mighty influence. In Ohio the campaign appears to be along the line of national issues, as it was fore seen it would be when Major McKinley was nominated. Honest money and a protect ive tariff is the republican war cry. and the democrats of course oppose them both. Both lead deeply into the dismal science of political economy, and it is difficult to make the people at large understand such ques tions. They are too prone to accept catch phrases and bits of epigrammatic rhetoric in lieu of sense and logic. Still the cam paign is prosecuted with vigor and the prob abilities seem all in favor of republican suc cess in Ohio. The issue in Iowa is upon the enforcement of the laws. Incidentally the prohibition question is affected, bat the contest is really to determine whether laws on the statute books shall he enforced or not. Governor Boies has admittedly permitted the infrac tion or evasion of the Iowa liquor law be cause in his opinion it was odious. Now he stands as a candidate in favor of the repeal of the prohibition amendment to the con stitution on the ground that the laws made under it cannot be enforced. The republi cans meet the issue squarely by citing the weakness of the present democratic gov ernor as the direct cause of the unsatisfac tory operation ot the liquor laws and pro pose to elect a man who will give the laws a chance to prove whether they are odious or not. Iowa may be reckoned on to go republican. a tie vote. Progressive citizens had become ; engl" houses are of the same claas. If Britain's Keeent Dead, Two men prominent in British politics died last week William Henry Smith, first lord of the treasury, who died on the fith, and Charles Stewart Paruell, who died on the 7th. Mr. (smith was the government leader in the house of commons. He de feated John rituart Mill in 18H8, and repre sented Westminster in the commons from that time till bis death. He was a man of much influence' in British politics. He was financial secretary of the treasury in 187-1, and three years later was promoted to be firpt lord of the admiralty. The liberals succeeded to iower in 18H0, but upon the return of the conservatives live years later Mr. .Smith was made secretary of state for war, and upon the resignation of Wd Churchill and the reconstruction of the ministry lie became first lord of the treas ury. He was about to be rsi- . o ine peer age when he died at the age n' hither J. li- liuilotir, menmero, paramfcid for Kast Manchester and chief eeittai;, lor 'Ireland, orOeorgc J. Ooschen, ol -nicjli r of the exchequer, will succeed Mr. Smith in the leadership of the house of commons. very tired of sacrificing to the backward spirit the beauty of streets and lawns, not to seak of the outrages on property wrought by skilled ami breachy cattle. The farmer who brought produce to market and the grocer who displayed his wares at his door, as well as the homes and gardens of the average citizen, were laid under tribute to the marauding cow. We venture the pre diction that there will be no fewer cows kept by poor people on account of thisordinance. A few cents a week will pay for banding cattle together in charge of a cow herd who will tak better care of the animal than they can take care of themselves in the street of the city. Yes, the cow must move on. They hare been having a good time, and the citizens whose sense of safety, order and neatness has been outraged have been patient lest hardship might possibly result to those un able to stand loss. A more auspicious time than the present for enacting this measure could not be chosen. It will not be long be fore the mellow horn of the cowherd shall be heard in the land, and the Ko-llni, ko-lang, kollngle-Untle of the cow bell will be heard morning and night as the kir.e are driven to apd from pasture, and not in the front lawn or cellar. So passes the glory of the cow beast they must be rung ring them with modera tion Agricultural Depression and Waste of Time. President Jordan of the new Leland Stan ford, Jr. university contributes an article to the October Forum under the caption "Ag ricultural Depression and Waste of Time." It is in many resiects an able and suggest ive paper on a fruitful topic. As may be in ferred from the wording of his subject the learned educator premises that the waste of time by the agriculturists has brought about the depression that marks their vocation. He cites an instance within his experience while traveling through Indiana In illustra tion of what he means by waste of time. The train stopped at the flag station of Clo verdale, and here is what be saw: A commercial traveler, dealing In groceries and tobacco, got off; a crate of liv chickens was put on. and the cars started again. The topping of a train was no rare sight lu that vll age, for It happens two or three timet every day. The people had no welcome for the com mercial traveler, no tears were shed over the departure of the chickens; yet on the station tepi I counted forty men and boys who were there when the train pulled la farm boys, who ought to have been at work In the fields; village boys, who might have been doing something somewhere, every interest of economics and aesthetics alike calling them away from the village, and off to the farms. Two men attended lo all the business of the station. The solitary pasenger went his own way. The rest were there because they bad not the moral strength to go anywhere else. There they stood, on the station steps, embodied ghosts, dead to all life and hope, with only force enough to stand around and gape, There are many good people who will not admit that President Jordan has taken a rep resentative instance on which to base his argument. The picture of indolence he has drawn does not properly apply to farmers as distinguished from every other hand of toilers. There is not unother industry in which instances of similar idling cannot be observed and the conclusion, if it be true, must apply to ail with equal force. In this view of the case, even if it be the fashion for farmers to loaf around railway stations during the busy season on the Wabash, the circumstance does not. by any means prove that the special depression in agricultural pursuits is due to it. Other people than farmers loaf sometimes, and nono labor more assiduously us a class than do the til- xty-seven. j Icrs of the soil. The raising of crops cannot he accom plished without hard manual work, and the . l.iij'C piles of figures 'Irit tell un of the vol ume of products from the farms mean that somebody has toiled carefully, patiently, constantly to bring those crops to maturity. It is gratifying that there i a disposition in the city council to hasten the building of a sewerage system in this city. The sea son is approaching when it will be abso lutely essential to have good drainage in order that the ordinary advantages of a civ ilized community may be enjoyed in the lower part of town. To have the street and alleys reeking with tilth argue a very low appreciation of common cleanliness. The expense of a sewerage system will be but a tithe of the expense which other towns the size of Oregon City have to bear fortius purpose. Of course this i no reason for the squandering of money on the enterorise, but it should be permit.! to weigh as to the present expediency of the improvement. Oregon City cannot aflord longer to wallow in filth. Governor Cam mull, of Ohio, appears to be somewhat worried by the campaign now on. He has commenced two htwl suits against the Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette each for $100,0110. Curiously enough, on the very date that the latter of these suits was filed the paier changed hands and politics, and it is now a democratic sheet. The gov ernor can hardly afford to quarrel with good and true democrats at this stage of the can vass. In the haste of getting up a report ol the council meeting on publication day last week two or three errors crept into the mat ter. The price of the pump offered by Mr. Sullivan should have been $1(175 instead of$Mt!75. In the list of bills allowed Mr. Williams appeared as "treasurer." It should have been "insurance." A CHtrzeo banking house bid $61,000 more than the face of the bonds for $.'500,000 of the Portland free bridge bonds. The Northwest metropolis appears to have a pretty good reputation for financial stability- ' Tux Cocbikk came out last week en larged by the addition ol a column to each of its pages and carrying considerably more news matter than formerly.
