Kach province in Uermany has its agricultural societies, and those send delegates to the national Assembly. In turn, the national gathering designates a commission, which annually visits some other country to gather facts relative to agricultural met hods, and to report them to members ot the so ciety. These visitors are men of means, who have de -voted much of their time to science. They are land owners, though many of them served (lortnany in the anny. In the party which visited this state the num ber of men of noble rank is surprising, and all have gained fame as scientists. Hie World's Famous Catarrh Remedy -Pe-ru-na. Entered at the postoiliee at Oregon City, Oregon, as second-class matter. i Secrktaky Cuoss, of the Willamette Valley Chau tauqua Association, has issued the program for the annual meeting of the Association, to be held July 14 -Ji5, inclusive. As an educational feast the Chan tauqua Assembly this year will eclipse all efforts of the past. ' Thk local Fourth of Julv celebration committees held a meeting this wtek and apportioned to the vari ous attractions their share of the sfMH) that has lK'en raised for the demonstration. All of the committees are working faithfully that the celt brat ion may be a record breaker, and the people of the entire county are invited to unite with the Falls City in bringing about that result. There is great rivalry among the baseballists of this city this year. The result will likely be the or ganization of an opposition team to the nine that is playing in the Inte-state League. As competition is the life of trade so opposition increases interest in ports of all kinds. Oregon City is large enough to support wo good ball teams, and lovers of sport will enjoy the benefit of the increased activity in these circles. The people of Oregon City loyally came to the re Kef of the unfortunate citizens of Ileppner and this week raised more than $200 which has been forwarded. The awful consequences of such a catastrophe as that which was visited upon Ileppner is more fully realized because it happened so near at home. Fearful were the loss of life and destruction of property. Our citi zens gladly contributed to the relief of the needy sur vivors of the flood. Tim Pendleton Fast Oregot.i.in has this about the Northwestern mill combine: "The proposed merger of Northwestern woolen mills marks an epoch in that great industry on the Pacific ooat. The new combine will include nine mills and will capitalize at $ :t,"tH, 000. The object of the merger is to do away with the cost of salesmen and t ho sharp competition of trade Fach mill will be serialized and will turn out but one article and the output of this article will be guag ed by the demand. At present each mill is manufac turing all the various articles produced by a modem j woolen mill. Kach mill has its salesmen fighting for' trade in territories necessarily covered by competit ors. Kach mill divides its ellorts bv producing stud" that is not wanttj, and in order to reduce expenses. reduce the output to the actual demand and to sim plify management, the niiTirer is resorted to. It is, the universal tendency in all the great industries and ; will ripen into co operation in time." ! GuvniAiiON Pay is the happiest day of all to the pub lic school graduate. Kinsmen and friends are invited to attend the commencement exerves that mark the close of his public school career. It is to l-e naturally expected that on such ucca.-ious the pupils will take some part in the exercises of the evening other than ' occupy seats on the platform and at the appointed time acknowledge the receipt of a well earned diploma i with a graceful bow.

At the close of a classical program of music and impersonations by imported talent, diplomas were awarded tin members of the class. This criticism is not directed at the persons who furbished the program, which wurf one of the best ever given in the city, but it appears that the pupils themselves should have been a little more prominent in the exercises of the evening.

It is said that the President made about 2G5 speeches on the trip. Some of the Demo cratic papers called it an electioneering tour, but this accusation need not bother the Republicans. They are in the ascendant under any conditions that are possible at present, and need not care for any flings which the Democrats can make. Summer has arrived but the public band stand has not been erected and the prospect for a series of de lightful open air band concerts ir. this city is as far removed as ever. The band boys mtfet regularly and are practicing faithfully and only ask that some suit able place be provided for the giving of concerts. It seems that the music-loving people of the community ehuld show a sufficient appreciation of the efforts of the band boys to supply the band stand and insure the giving of concerts. the district for their action in consolidating the tenth a:id eleventh grades in the eour-e of study and other wise revising the general management of the city schools.

This subject will likely receive the further consideration and definite final action at the hands of the council at the special meet ing to be held Monday evening. Those charged with the expenditure of the money owe it to the commun ity to take some action. It is understood that the members of the council committee on streets and pub lic propert', every member of which is opposed to the building of the road, will decline to officiate as one of Jhe joint committees in expending the fund. ' Consolidation of rural school districts, because of natural conditions, is probably more feasible in Clack amas county than in any other Willamette Valley county. This subject is engaging the attention of the educators of the state in an effort to promote the efficiency of the public school system. At -the last fseesion of the state legislature a law was enacted, au thorizing the consolidation of rural districts. In unit ing two or more adjoining districts several results are attained. A larger school, a longer term and an im proved course of study are the substantial and satis factory results. The researches of the German Agricultural Society, whose delegates recently toured Oregon, has no coun terpart in the work of any society in America.

Jiutler j for a time was a man of some consequence in politics, j but he is not quoted to any great extent now. His I present prediction will serve to call to nind the fact that there was a time when the Populists were an element of some importance in public affairs. In ItiOf the third party which will attract most attention will be the Socialist. In the elections of l'J02 the Social ists of the country at large cast something like KX), 0X) votes. There arc, of course, two or three divisions of the Socialist party. The larger branch, the Social Democrats, polled nearly 90,000 votes for Debs in 1"00. Judging by the strength which they have dis played in the congressional and in some state can vasses since then, the Social Democrats ought to be able to cast 200.000 or 300,000 votes next year. For a man like Debs that party would be able to make a canvass that the country would be compelled to notice. But the Populist party is as dead as the anti-Masonic party or as John Randolph's Quids. Most of the Poi u'ists of the West have come back to the Republi cans, where they belonged before the revolt in J890 and 1892. In the South the bulk of the Tops have gone to the Democrats, from whom they were drawn originally. None of them under the name of Pops are anywhere extant in the country. Even Leather lunged Allen of Nebraska has got out of the Pop camp and nobody hears of him any longer. In its brief career, the Populist party threw some queer people to the surface of politics, but nearly 'all of them have been dropped back into oblivion. Butler is the last of O the Pops which the country will see. ifis place is!Q among the Socialists, where he will have to go if he is ! Q ever again to get any political recognition.
