That Oregon City is the only town In Ore gon that has a board of trade able toxet out quorum when needed, is truly a compli ment lo this city, and proves that our town possesses more lite and energy than any other place in the state. 8uch has been the apathy that has fallen upon the various boards of trade in this state, that even the chamber ot commerce of Portland, which formerly was one of the most active and prosperous associations in Oregon, has of late been unable to muster a quorum for business. To the officers of the Oregon City board ol trade is largely due tbe credit of holding together our organization, and especially to President K. . Charman is honor due. For the two years that he has been at the head of the board, he has given freely ol bis time and energy to keep up a working in terest in the members and to see that the work of the board ss pushed with vigor. Now that be has resumed his place in the ranks his leal will be none the less strong anil he can be counted upon at all times to do bis full part to advance the .Interests of our city. -The board of trade was especially fortu nate in its choice ol officers for the ensuing year. In H. E. Cross, the board lias a president, of wlioe ability and energy there is no question, for be has served before both as as president and secretary of the organ ization, and has the record of being one of the best officers tbe board ever had. Presi dent Cross' industry and resources are al most unlimited and tbe members ol our board can re?t assured that there will be Some new proposition brought up at each -maelinn warren interests of Oregon City oan be advanced. .Mr, J. 0. Pilsbtiry, (he new secretary, Is known as one of the most progressive and public spirited men in town, and as a col lector he has few equals. This latter quali fication is a most important one, for a well filled treasury is the lite pf a board of trade as of any other oriaulatidi.,aiid It is a mat ter of cdngrat illation that the board is able to receive his services. Of the treasurer, Mr. F. E. Donaldson, It can be safely said that he will make an effi cient otlioer and will use his best endeavors to assist in making the board ol trade a leading factor in the growth of Oregon City and the development ol Clackamas county. A senatorial hglit does make queer bed fellows, as is now witnessed at tSaleni, where Simon, Bourne and V'Hen have formed a Iripple alliance to hold up tha legislature and prevent the re-election of Senator Mitchell. With ali their obstructive tactics Mr. Mitchell's chances are yet good for re election, though they have been able lo postpone the balloting for another week. Cheap Land for Salo.

FOR AN OPEN BIVER The effort of the Oregon City board of trade to organize a Willamette waterway association is a movement of great import ance to this section of Oregon. A deep water channel from Portland to Oregon City with all-the-year-round navigation on the Upper Willamette and its chief tributa ries would do more to advance the develop ment of the counties drained by these streams than any other undertaking that could be inaugurated. A ship channel from Portland to this city would enable Oregon City to become the great, and in fact theouly, cotton manufact uring center on the Pacific coast. With the completion of the Nicaragua canal, w hich will take place at no distant day .cotton ships could come direct from New Orleans or Mo bile to Oregon City, without breaking cargo and return with a load of our manufactured goods, luinher, fish, etc., thus Increasing the demand for the products of these two great sections of our country as well as to cheapen them to tbe consumers. Tbe gath ering of a great fuclory population at Ore gon City would of itself be a powerful fac tor in bringing a greater prosperity to tbe people of the Willamette valley, for it would afford a home market that could be easily reached and at a mere nominal cost In transportation expenses. It is of equal importance to the other towns, as well as the farming sections of the Willamette valley that its rivers be ren dered navigable at all seasons of the year. There is little likelihood thut competing railroads will ever be built through this section, for it is pretty well supplied with railways now and no new company will come into a held w here they would have to meet both rail and river competion. With the opening of the Willamette river and its larger tributaries and with the railroads now built there would he no section of the Cares Croup.

Droitms are not without sitftiifloancw, pooil!y to those who have, a high sot purpose lu life. And na this subject is of interest to many I will rvlato a cries of dreams in my owu experience to which possibly some one cuu give a clearer interpretation than I Having bocu tnkeu very ill in winter and this being my second attack, all my friends and associate physicians said I was at deatb'i door and it w as uot possible for me to recover. It meant but a few hours, or davi at the moat I was nncotisoioiu at times, but through it all the idea was firmly rooted iu my mina mat "there is more life for mo, and I cannot, I will not go." There followed four days of complete darkness, ana wnen little natural sleep came it was accompanied each night for threo weeks by a dream of my encounter with some ticious animal beginning with a bull, theu a boar and next a large mastiff. This order never varied. When the ball came toward we, I easily and quickly vaulted the fence as he pinned it below me. In my en counter with the boar I grabbed him by the throat and threw him on his back, thus getting safely away. (Next morn ing the biceps aud supinators of my arm were so sore that they had to be rub bed). Next the mastiff approached. 1 quickly grasjied him by the laruyi till I could get bold of his tongue. This grip seemed to affect the muscles of my wrist aud hand alone, which were just as sore and still as formerly. After the expiration of the three weeks I had no dreams whatever for a few nights. When they returned, I be came more and more worried, until, after the last one, something said to me:"Thia is good, not evil. You are j surely a conqueror." However, not much physical improvement was visi ble. In the next dream I saw a blno and white light growing into a crown, in which the word "Power" in bright let ters was inclosed. This seemed to give nie hope, also strength und courage, and I felt somewhat better. Three nights luter I dreamed of being on the lake of Galilee, iu the boat with Christ and his disciples, and such a picture as lay before mo is hnrd to de scribe. The disciples seemed agitated, the sea was rough, and the bout frail: yet I was calm. The disciples looked at mo and then at the sleeping Christ, but did not speak. I was hulf reclining, but why so culm I knew not. Presently the spokesman of the gruup arose and whispered to the rest, and as they all got np he touched Christ aud said, "Muster, carest thou not that we per ish?" Christ's face, as ho arose and re buked them, wore an expression of min gled gentleness, sternness and pity. I was thrilled an he held out his hand, with a graceful movement mid said, "Peace, be still." Then ennio a re- niarkublo calm a beautiful sunset on a sen of glass. Iawoke fueling much better and with strong hope. My improvement was very notictublo from this time forward. Then cumo a lull, which wnt followed by dreams of a different character for another period of three weeks. I heard glorious music by a full voiced choir, commencing regularly at sunset aud continuing until I was soothed asleep. I felt inoro vigorous ufter this expe rience. Then, fur the next three weeks, I saw only a beautiful blue and white light, just as I fell asleep. As I went abont, obliged to Mingle in the affairs of dully life 1 hud no dreams for quito awhile being some what worried by hu.(uess and other cares. Flnully hiy will again asserted itself. Tliwi began, lasting for three weeks, a series of wonderful texts und sayings, which wero given to me by a voicrt sufficiently audiblo to uronso me in the morning. They would frequent ly ring in my ears ull day. This seemed to give mo power over myself und oth ers. Then I begun to get messages und impressions from friends ut a distance, Lastly, approaching my office one morning after leaving the cur, I seemed overwhelmed by a condition in which I was very happy utid nueonscious of my surroundings. When I reuelied the office, I felt a desire to bo alone for a few minutes. I sat down, and my eyes closed, when I saw a beautiful, large star, and while I was looking at it a voice said uudibly, seven times, "Let tho light of life shin forth in you." Next morning the same condition came at precisely tbe same place, lasting until the office was reached. This time I saw a beautiful moon and heard a voice speuk tbj words seven times, "This light of life, so free, is yours." Tbe moon disappeared, as the star had done, after the seventh time. I felt very sleepy and dozed for about three minutes. It would seem that in these occur rences the regularity of the appearances und of the number of times in each case is worthy of uote. Metaphysical Maga zine. The New Woolen. The winter's woolens are handsome and varied. Iridescent effects, rich heather mixtures and boucle effects are numerous, having, for example, a medi um or dark woolen ground variegated by contrasting threads of silk, or the foundation is a blue or deep red, for in etanco, with a very shaggy raised de sign of glossy black wool on tbe sur face These materials will be much worn, with tho smull addition, per haps, of a corded silk vest to match the silk intermixture or :Jho the back ground. Very little decoration is needed for those showy textiles. eiiiic Oj 7TH JSTUKKT, fiHIVKhY'JS IHIII.DI.VII FOR FKKS1I J PICKLES CRANBERRIES SWEET CIDER FRESH CANDIES NUTS, ETC.

As the Great Manufacturing Center of the Pacific Coast OREGOH CITY- Is Coming to be One of the Best Marketing Towns in tho State This is proven every day by the number of fanners, who are to be seen on its streets selling their proilm-c, who, until just tho last few years, sought the markets of other towns. Tbe system of macadamized roads that is being built into all parts of Clack amas county, will enable all the peophi of this county to share in tbe profitable mar ket that Oregon City affords.
