The He pnhllcan Stato League of Oregon will be hflil In Portland on Tuenday, February lot, to which every duly organiaed re publican club In the atate la entitled to representation, and it to be hoped every club In Clack am ai county will be repreaentud at the coining meeting. At the biennial meeting held in Portland nearly two yeitra ago there were 1170 llvlegntea preaent. It la now mora than a year aince the rcpuhlUana of Oregon have eaaembled togiitber for any diacua bIoii upon public queBtiona, and for this reaaon the meeting ahould have a largo attendance lo that an interchange of views may be had Reaidea outllniiiK the work for the coming campaign the regular election of ollicera will take place aa well aa the election of delegates to the National League. The aecretary haa mado arrangements with the tranaporta lion companies for reduction in rates to nrnirly all points in tho state for dele gales. The Oregon Railway A Naviga tion company has mado a rate of ono and one-filth fare, good for four days, and the Southern Pacific company a rate of one and one-third (are and good for three days; for round trip in each cane. Theae rates are made upon the certificate plan. When the ticket for Portland la purchuMud at the local ticket ofllce, the purchaser should ask the agent for a certificate. This certificate must be countersigned by the secretary of the league at the convention and thon en titles the bolder to purchase a return ticket for one flth or one-third fare as the case may be. Blank credential forms may be had by applying to II. L. Wells, secretary, box 348, Portland. A Plain Tkuth. The Oregonian truth fully says "what a town Is worth is judged largoly by the advertisements in its newspapers," and cites the fact that Portland advertises less In its own news papers than such towns asTopeka, Kan., and Sacramento, Cal. The newspapers of I.oi Angeles curry four limes as many advitrtloiiient as Hioho of Portland, and tlioHn of Keatllo three times as many. Asa remilt Huattle Is getting the hulk of the Alaska trade as well as having a steady growth all the while, This saint) comparison can with the same eH'nct be shown to exist within this stale. Pendleton with a iHipolalinn of 4,0(10 and Kiigmift with less than that amount, each support two dully papers, while Oregon Clly claiming a imputation of nearly (J.iXK) oilers no liidiicmnoiit lo even one dully. Kosohurg with 2,500 bus a dully, Astoria baa three dailies and The Dalles baa two, IUker Cltv lias two dallies, and soon. Yet Oregon Clly with a population larger than any one of these mentioned except Aatoria offers no Nndiiceiiient, whlls her naturul facilities for a large city are great. These facilities will not develop without assistance. They must be brought to' the attention of the outside world, and there la hut one ('banned through which this can lie done and that is through the columns of the newspapera. A town and the busi ness of a town is measured by the business men whose advertisements appear from week to week lu tho local publications, ity far too many men re gurd a dollar paid lo a newspaper as a contribution without returns, but the man who haa made a study of news pasr advertising for years tells a differ ent story. From practical experience they have learned that their greatest profit comes from the money si-ent In advertising, and continue from year to year. If it were not profitable theae people would not ieiid money In that way, Our business men complain that business is dull here, notwithstanding the natural manufacturing advantages of the town. This complaint is not beard in other towna of tho state with a corres (Minding population. If Oregon City would attain and maintain Its commer cial standing among the cities of the country It must lie done through its riewioapera and theae newinaiiera can not do this unless backed up by the business interests ol the city. Again wo say "what a town la worth la judged largely by the advertisements in its newapuers." Til Kt) IK) UK PI ItlUNT IIAMifcll. Paid Ike Penally Decr.fd bjaJnry of Ills Country men. William Henry Theodore Ourrant was executed at San Ouealin lui-t Friday for the murder of Itlancbe Iemont some two years ago in San Francisco. The crime and proceedings during the trial have already been narrated in the news-paM-rt, and the final end baa come and gone. Let ua close the scene by giv ing the priaoner'a laat words aa be uttered them on the gailows and then draw the curtain. "I deaire to say that although I am an innocent man, Innocent of every crime that has been charged against mo, I bear no animosity toward those who have persecuted me, not even the press of San Francisco, which hounded me lo the grave. II any man thinks I am going to spring a sensation, I sm not, except It is the sensation that I am an Innocent man brought to the grave by my persecutors, but I forgive them all. They will get their justice from the great God who is master of us all, and there I also expect to get the Justice that is the justice of an innocent man. Whether or not the perpetrators of the crime of which 1 am charged are discovered, it will make no dilference to me now, but I say this day will be a shame to the great atate of California I forgive everybody who haa persecuted mo, an Innocent man whoso bands have never been stained with blood, and I go to meet my Uod with forgiveness for all men." Illmldor Troubles. The bladder was created fur one pur pose, namely, a receptacle for tho urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. Tho second way is from careless local treatment of other diseases. SAMIM.KB BKNT fRKK. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid neys is the cheif cause of bladder troubles. It is comforting to know that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root fulfills every wish in qu'ek ly curing bladder and urinary troubles. It corrects frequent calls, inahilty to hold urine aud scalding or stinging pain in passing it, or bad c fleet a following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being com pelled to gut up many times during the night to urinate.

Almost without exception they puss to tho right when meeting other pedestrians and to the left when pass ing thein from behind. When turning I corner, the pedestrian who bus learned lo cycle hugs the wall closely if going lo tho right and is almost sure to make a long turn If bound to the left If all pedestrians wonld observe the rules of tho road on tho sidewalks aa well as tho cxSTienced cyclists observe them on the highways, there would be fewer toes trampled utsm aud fewer persons nudged lu the ribs by protrud ing and sharp elbows.

The movements of the combatants are so rapid in bnttlo that it Is difficult to follow them through all of their evolu tions, but tho plan of battle seems to be very simple., says The Chuntuuquan. Two bees fniiu the hive are sent to kill ono intruder, aM the latter always tries to force an cut ranee, even at the risk of its life. Once iucide, it makes room for others of its companions to (liter and then, gathering np Its abdomen in as small a space as possible, it assumes the defensiva Two of the hive bees ponnce upon it and collaring it fiercely they seek to find a vulnerable point between tho rings of Its body testing it to death. Tho attacking bee just aa determinedly struggles to oover every unprotected spot If suflklent time cuu be gained and the attacking swarm is large euongh to force an entrance the badly mauled bees that bate not been stung to death will suddenly assnmo the offensive and pursue the tactics of their enemiea The contortion's aud evolutions of the vari ous fighters are interesting to the ob server. Should the' battle go against the at tacking body, tho balance of the swarm files away to seek safety, and tho dead carcasses of their cotnpauione are thrown contemptuously out of the hive. But in tho event of an opposite ter mination of the straggle the poor in habitants are slaughtered. When their fate has been practically decided, many of them turu traitors to their cause, and in order to save their own lives they join tho forces of the attacking party and display great vigor iu killing their former oompunions. But there is honest patriotism even among bees. In every hive there aro some who fight to tho laat aud prolong the straggle for hours. Winter Coata. In coat shapes for tho winter both seiuiloosc and fitted shapes are favored. The collars are still tho familiar high standing hands finished with braided or braid edged tubs, crenelated strips of velvet, fur bordered points and other fuuey shapes formed and decorated to conform to the rest of tho garment Most of the Bleevcs are very small coat shapes, or else very much reduced mut tou leg styles, finished either with a, flitro at tbo wrists or turned buck with a deep mucbine stitched cuff. The great est novelty in wraps, aside from the widely popular Russian model, is tho garment closely fitted back and fmut, the jacket slightly pointed, and reach ing only a tritlo below the waist line ou tho sides. Over the very close coat Bloevos fall loose open circular bell sleeves, which are silk lined aud decorated iu various ways to mutch tho jacket trimmings. Thoso little garments aro designed to aocompuny a calling or church costume or for other occasions for which a small wrup is requisite. A few of these wraps fasten on the left side aud are trimmed across the front with two rows of rather largo buttons, giving the jacket a dou ble breasted effect These wraps are made of various materials, including velvet, brocado, repped Bilk in heavy cordings or flue cloth, with a handsome trimming of braiding or passementerie iu ooujunotiou with fur. New York Post Aluminium Wire, Aluminium wire is mado of various sizes aud used for a variety of purposes. Among its newer uses is tho manufac ture of door aud window screens. When exposed to the woather, such screens do not rust Aluminium wire is used in the manufacture of hairpins. Iu a fow cases in this city aluminium wire has been sold to be put up on roofs for use as clotheslines. The wire sold for this purpose was No. 6 gauge, which costs 00 cents a pound, and 1,000 foot of which weighs 84 pounds.

Not in America, not even In tbs Kloiutiko, but In tho furoff cast, at Rau gun, tho cnpltul of Durum, la sitnuted tho famous golden pagoda of a Buddhist temple tho whole of the exterior of which is ono mass of shimmering gold. This generous coatiijg of the metal is tho result of years and years of votive offerings to Buddha, for devotoea from all parts of the world come to Itangnn and bring packets of gold leaf, which they pluoe on the pagoda. During the last century, TshewUyo-Yen, the king of Burma, guve bis (literal) weight in gold to the walls of the pagoda, an offering worth .V9.000. New York Journal Kerry. The Philadelphia Record tells a story tf a nervy uiau who boldly drove a wagon op to a commission merchant's store and transferred 60 baskets of prod uce from the sidewalk to his rattle trap vehicle, after which he drove away without paying for them. Meanwhile the oomimssiou man stood on the frout sidewalk and watched the opera tion, thinking thut the produce was be ing delivered to a party to whom it bad been sold.

OF CLACKAMAS COUNTY The factory towns of the East are noted for affording the best market to the neigh boring farmers and gardeners in proportion to the population of any of the towns in that section. The reason for this is that the people of these towns have a fixed in come upon which they can always depend, and, as a consequence, they are liberal buy ers, paying cash for all their purchases.
