TRUTH FROM WALL STREET.
Hem is something that has been
floating around the country credited
to. the Wall Street Journal. Whether
tfio crediting to the organ of frenzied
firrauce Is truth or sarcasm we don't
kmrw, but we do know the article It
Bdf Is all truth, and there cannot be
too many readings of IL It may be
tta editor of that paper upon some
rainy day dreamed of the peaco and
contentment of the old home back in
the hills, where prayers were prayed
ta God and not to Mammon, and for
at moment he became inspired and
dashed off the following:
"What America needs more than
railway extension, and western irriga
tion, and a low tariff, and a bigger
wheat crop, and a merchant marine,
and new navy, is a revival of piety,
tlie kind mother and father used to
tiave piety that counted it good bus
iness to stop for daily family prayers
before breakfast, right in the middle
of the harvest; that quit work a half- j
tiour earlier Thursday night, so as to j
get the chores done and go to prayer
meeting; that borrowed money to pay
the. preacher's salary and prayed fer
veiiUr in secret for the salvation of
the. rich man who looked with scorn
on. such unbusinesslike behavior.
Tfiat's what we need now to clean
this, country of the filth and graft, and
of greed, petty and big; of worship of
Cue. houses and big lands and high of
fice and grand social functions. What
is this thing which we are worship
ping but a vain repetition of what de
caying nations fell down and worship
ped just before their light went out?
Read the history of Rome in decay
ami you'll find luxury there that could
lay big dollar over our little dough
nut that looks so large to us. Great
wealth never made a nation substan
tial nor honorable. There is nothing
on earth that locks so good that is so
daneruua for a man or a nation to
tianraV, as quick, easy, big money. If
you resist its deadly influence, the
chances are that it will get your son.
It takes greater and finer heroism to
dare to be poor in America than to
charge an earthworks in Manchuria."
APPLES.
"Apples breed optimism, energy,
cheerfulness, ambition," says Charles
Edmund Tomlinson, of Chicago, found
er of the Apple club of America. He

CAN3Y PAPER FLOURISHING.
The Carby Tribune has entered up
on its second year, and the editor,
George W. Dixon, in a signed state
ment says it h more than p succes-.
The Star is heartily glad lor Caubyjo?
is a good hwn and w!H profit by pup
porting liberally its local paper. And
Dixon always sticks up Mor Cauby
and he deserves success for that even
if he wasn't, which he is, an entertain
ing as well at, a candid writer.
Editor Piwn says that a man told
him last year he had better get a $10
a week Job than to try to run a news
paper in Canby. Dixon replied he
was not a $10 man, and since that
time the solicitous party has asked for
employment on. the Tribuue.
The Tri'une office was moved to a
room ou C btreet for reasons thus
stated by Its editor:
"In moving to Its present location
the Tribune has n two fold advantage.
In the first place wo havo easy ac
cess to 'Dad' Poyoe's woodpile hack
of the postoffice, and this cold spell
ts likely to continue for quite a while
yet. Then there are a lot of bearing
fruit trees back of the office, and
when this fruit gets ripe, the rest Is
easy."

ALL FOR PORTLAND.
Lot us have free locks, but let tho
U. S. government furnish them. Or
egon has enough burdeus to carry al
ready, says the Albany Democrat, and
the same paper adds: "It is the busi
ness of the U. S. government to malt
the river navigable at Oregon City
just as much as at the mouth of the
Columbia."
Doesn't the Democrat know that i
Portland, which bosses the Oregon
congressional delegation, would never
permit a penny of government money
to be diverted from Portland harbor
or access to it. We havn't been m
Oregon long, but we have been here
long enough to find out Portland's
hoggishness.

Court Robin Hood No. 9, Foresters
of America, met Tuesday evening in
tho Woodman Hall for a regular
meeting. A very interesting session
was held and and one candidate took
the lonesome trip through tho deep,
dark, forest.
Court Robin Hood is one of the
lodges of this city that believes In
social sessions and once In a while
they partake of the flowing refresh
ment In a temperate manner. Hut on
this account the Woodmen havo issued
un edict on tho lodge that tho using
of liquid refreshments must bo stop
ped in their hall. There was a strong
discussion and as tjio result tho For
esters apoplnted a committee to trans
fer the lodge regalia from tho present
lodge room to Knapp's Hall.
The edict will not only place a ban
on the Foresters of America, but on
many of the lodges that hold their ses
sions In the Woodmen hall. It is well
known by many In this city that all
the lodges of this city have their so
cial gatherings from time to time, and
that these always end with a banquet.
The Woodmen were somewhat Bur
prised when the Foresters decided to
move for they had not looked forward
to this act. Several other lodges may
also take steps to hunt other quar
ters as their home.
The meeting of Court Robin Hood
No. 9, will be hereafter held on every
Thursday evening in Knapp'a hall.
The change of halls has made neces-
sar' tne change of date from Tuesday
to Thursday.
