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 is a worthy successor and complement Tim httor Ul niU'e -.-ttu ii'uji",' . a ...... v ...... v. traveled about western rew lorn ami northern Ohio a centpry ago planting .-.ppie seed wherever he went.

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." NOTES FROM CLARKES. H. Turner and family visited at Mr. and Mrs. Tousts, Sunday.

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. EVERYBODY WANTS IT.

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.
