United States ami the cilmens of the city will entertain its fiesta in a gnat anil grand celebration, to which thousands of people will come ami enjy the program made up especially iortheni. One Fourth of July la very much like another. Kach celebration is a repeti tion of the preceding one. Tho differ ence lies in the fact that with the' sue .reeding years, surceeditig generations lejoice in the establishment ol a Demo emtio government, a government of the people, for the people and by the people, and are glad that fate has placed tlieni within the bounds of a country where all are free and equal and no one is de nied a voice in the framing of the wise and jmt laws under whih we live. We give little thought to our good for time and are prone to take it more as a matter of course than aa a gift of bod. We are apt to forget, in our enj ymetit of the celebration, the memory of the great meD who lived iu the Utter lulf of the 18:1; century, of what they endured and worked to accomplish that America might be Iree. Theiuineaof Washing ton, Jefferson, Adam. Hamilton, Frank lin, Morri-t and scores of others are household words with us. When we think of it we all recognize that these men risked everything dear to the hem I to 'ree their country and to establish a govern nient tht has endured for 120 ye.rs and will endure forever. Since the declaration of independence by 13 elates thing have occurred o which our forefathers never dreamed. AS OTUERS SEE TS. In the Tortland Oregonian of last Sun dav appeared an editorial nearly a column in length devoted entirely to the beautitljatton of the city. Ours will not be so long and perhaps not so effective and certainly not so far reaching. But the argument is the same here as in Fortlsnd. The valley of the Willamette is full of towns. Some of these towns are beau tiiul and some are not. For those in the latter category there is no excuse. There is every reason why they should be beautiful and there is no good reason why they should not be so. In every city there comes ' strangers within its gates. They are on leisurely pleasure bent and stroll aoout the streets, making mental notes and taking observations of things that pass before their eyes. The impressions they receive go abroad. They are repeated, published, read and commented upon by thousands. These things count in the growth and upbuild ing and of the consequent prosperity of a city. More perhaps in this city than in any other town in Oregon io these conditions exist. From iu proximity to the me tropolis and its easy access to tourists, Oregon City is visited by thousands of people every summer. - They have noth ing to do but look about them and ad mire our roses, our handsome gardens and our well kept lawns, and the archi tacture of our stately residecces and pretty cottages. Some of theru are homeseekers, and as such are in search of a location that is healthful, central, beautiful and in short tbe most advan tageous and desirable in every respect. WHAT DO THEY FIND IN ORE GON CITY? On tbe 4tb of this month, at the regular council meeting, a petition signed by a number of prominent buai Dess men, was filed with the council, asking that body to purchase a street sprinkler. The business men agreed to stand tbe necessary cost of operation during the present year and the water commission promised to supply water for the sprinkler free of charge to the city. The matter was referred to the committee on streets and public property, with instructions to report at a special meeting, which was held one week later. At that time objections were made by several of the councilmen, on tbe plea that probably next year the business . men would attempt to saddle the whole cost upon the city and for that reason tbe subject was dropped and whether or not it will be taken op again is a matter of conjecture. We bopeit will. There is no question but that tbe city needs a sprinkler. Dust is offensive to residents and visitors, and when the merchants of tbe city are public spirited enough to defray the cost of operation of a sprink ler, it is little enough for the city to buy a sprinkling cart, the cost of which would probably not exceed few hun dred dollars. Tired of waiting for the council to act, the water commission bas arranged a schedule of hours for street sprinkling, and between the hours of 7 and 9 A. M. and between 2 and 4 P. M., the mer chant of Oregon City may stand on the sidewalk in front of bis place of business and sprinkle tbe street by means of a 'This is truly an edifying bpectacle in a city of 4000.

OTNAItrOTK;- HUM SJa - Miss Fannie G Torter, who won the SUte prize offered by the John ll.irrouglis Sr.iu.. n( Portland, for the beat set of compositions writien by the June graduat ing classes of the public schools on "Oregon Native Birds." is a na-ive daughter, being lioro in Oregon City, August 9, 18j8 m;.. p,.-u, r..olvd hfr education in the public schools of tbe S'ate. After completing the High School course, she entered the State Normal School at Mon mouth, from which institution she graduated with Honors in me ciase 01 10.. After graduation she entered the profession of teaching at Oregon City, where she roisirninir to accent a position in the Portland Schools. iciuaiur'i l 1 . . j 1 o b .She taught for some years in t e North Central School, receiving promotion from time to time. A vacancy occurring in the assistant principaNhip ol the Failing School last February, Misa Porter was elected to said position. Miss Porter bas always been deeply interested in all educational matters in the State, serving at one time as a member of the Board of Examiners of Clackamas County, and has held the office of Secretary of the Clackamas County Teacher a" Association ever since the organization of the society. The acquisition of territory thousands of miles away from our home shores was not contemplated in 1870. The credit of this increase is due to patriots of a latter day. Let us then next Friday give a thought to the memories of those who have done so much for us If we are grateful, and we are, the least we can do is to show our appreciation of their sacrifices, of their t ufferings, which have resulted in the existence this day of the greatest and grandest government on the face of tbe earth. Ik the death of J. 8. Risley Clackamas County loses one of her best citizens. To know Mr. Risley was to respect and admire bim. A man that was fair and just to all men, he inspired by bis life higher ideals and better aims in the younger generation. His life was a suc cess from any point of view and the com munity and the county is better for Hav ing bad tbe example of this life. More men like hirn is what the county needs as an example of what honesty and in tegrity can do. Tbe passing away of J. 8. Risley ia marked with deep regret by all men who knew him. Pbopli who live so that it is possible for them to attend should make an extra effort to attend tbe Chautauqua. It it worth while to bear what tome of the great thinkers, writers and workers bave to say on some of the leading subjects enaa&in the attention of tbe people. These people will not only interest yon but give you new ideas so that you will see the world in a broader way. It will pay you to attend Chautauqua. iMiaOa Blfaatua af V. A.
