, What Hammond Said. Mr. Hammond
arrived in Portland yesterday on his way
to Astoria. Regarding the Oregon Pa.
cine road, Mr. Hammond said : "Until
the supreme court decides upon the ap
peal brought before it we are not in a
position to do anything. If the action of
Judge Fullcrton in confirming the sale
to us is upheld, the road will be put in
tiret-clasa physical condition, the bridges
all thoroughly repaired, and then the ex
tension of the road will be taken undjr
consideration. The extension of that
road would develop a great lumber in
terest, and would make it a valuable
piece of property, it properly handled
Band needed connection made. The first
extension will be to Independence
Prairie 12 miles east of the present ter
minus, where it would connect with the
wagon road from Prineville, and com
mand the trade of Eastern Oregon.
Valley connections will also be made in
due time, if the decision of the supreme
Courtis favorable."

The Present Situation.
It has been two or three da va since the
Democsat has had a Red Crovrn Mill

awaiting developments, in the hopes that
satisfactory transfer would be made
that would .result in the mill being set
running, rne report is tbat tbe trant-

templated. a result to be renwited. If
tbe statements made by storens are ear
ned out it means the arrest, of one or
two persons under the statute made for
cases covering the use of wheat, not trans-
lerrea.
The fanners feel their lossesi seriously
even though the amounts may not be
large, and it is only natural that they
should wish to see justice done. Among
trie wneat stored was a cartoad for tbe
Nebraska sufferers. Mr. Isotn. tbe pres

be returned. It is probably too late to
do any good with it, aa the? railroads
have refused to transfer awrUting far

COLLEGE MEN A POWER
A pleasant appearing young man, of
medium stature, possessing an animated
countenance, made up ol sood features.
faced' an audience at the college chapel
last night, somewhat limited in site on
account of the aqueous condition of tlio
atmosphere. President Chapman, of the
University of Oregon, has been lecturing
in different parts of the state on higher
education. Albany College and its friends
were at this time favored with one of
nis popular talks. , l lie fo lowing are
some of his ideas worthy of notice:
He was not speaking in the interest of
any particular college: but to induco all
students to go forward, to kindle in their
breasts an ambition for something higher.
Since time began there have been two
classes, one has ruled and one been rul
ed ; one has worked and paid taxes for
others to live in luxury; the man who
has had the higher educat ion has been
the one who ruled. In 1872 out of 302
members in the house of representatives
138 were college graduates, while in bus
iness the proportion was I to 146. The
chances of getting in congress are en
hanced 60 times by having a college ed
ucation. 7 of the first 8 justices of the
supreme court were college men, 41 of
toe oo signers of trie declaration of inde
pendence were college men. The men
at the head of the great undertakings in
this country today are educated men. At
one time a higher education meant that
a man was to be a lawyer, doctor or
minister. Now there are many fields.
The college man now has a great open
ing in architecture; in engineering; in
farming, which when properly done is a
learned profession. About 9& per cent
of farmers now are making a failure of
their businesft, because not prepared for
it.
In mercantile life there is another great
opening. Out of every 100 in this busi
ness 95 fall ; 80 fail twice and 70 three
times, because they enter business with
out proper preparation. The young man
entering one of the learned protections
without a college education is wasting
his time. Statistics show that the young
man with a collejre education has fifteen
years advantage in the race for success
over tbe man without such an education.
The former gains success between 30 and
4o years of age; the latter between 4o
and 60 years of age.
Today tbe young man meets great
competition in business, not experienced
by our pioneers, and be must be forti
fied. The beet equipment is a college
education. The rich men of tMprountrv,
though perhaps not educated, believe al
most universally in higher education,
Rockefeller, tl2.000.000 worth, Stanford,
$15,000,000 worth, being cited as ex
amples. The reason why colloce men are better
fitted for life is because they have not
only mastered facts necessary in their
business; but they have gotten the pow
er to think, to concentrate their thoughts
on a problem and get down to business
at onoe; their minds have been trained,
like regular soldiers in contrast to the
militia ; contact with educated men ;
because they learn the great problems of
lit and have better discernment of right
and wrong and the. will to do what is
right. The greatest of all college acquir
ments. The college men are the power
which keeps our national government
from rotting.

A live saloon row occured about 11
o'clock lout night in the saloon of H. L.

time Henry William i, of the Flrt street
saloon, entered Cranor's place. Mr.
Cranor was behind the bar. A ditqmte
arose, w hether over a new or old matter
the Dkxochat does not-know. The re
suit was that Williams grabbed the
cheese knife lving on the lunch counter
and attacked Cranor. Considerable blood
flew. Cranor was cut somewhat in the
neck and on the hand, the latter lieing
done in trying to get hold of the knife.
Williams received a few scratches and a
dark eye. A barkeeper who was pres.
ent in attempting to seiarate the men
was also cut some. The blood on the
floor and towels this moniing testified to
the character of the contest. The injur
ies to Cranor are said not to have been
serious.

time: Mr. Cranor not liavinir..iHirvd

THE REASONS WHY
Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver
Oil and Hypophosphitcs is so
useful in all wasting diseases,
such as Consumption, Anaemia,
Scrofula, Rheumatism, Bron
chitis, and Marasmus and Rick'
cts in children, is because it
furnishes to the depleted blood
the fattening and enriching
properties of the oil, and to
the bones and nervous system
the phosphorescent and vitaliz
ing1 properties of the Hypophos
phites, which together nourish
the body arrest the progress of
the disease, ana commence

SALOON KEEPERS VS DRUG
GISTS.
The city council at its next meeting
will have another matter to contend
with. Last evening at 5 o'clock the sa
loon Keepers of the city lield a meeting,
at which it was decided to petition the
city council to require theliixsnsingof all
drug stores for selling liquor except on a
physicians prescription and as allowed
by law. It was asserted at the mee ing
wiai ine nusiness oi me saloons was be
ing infringed on by the 'SruggUts of the
city, and as the former nav S400 a vear
for lii-eiiHe, at a time when it is dithcult
to make tho license money, they want
protection. It was even asserted that
liquor is sold by the glass outside of the
saloons. Mr. Baumgart declares that if
the council does not give the required
protection he will put in a small stock of
urugs in uie iront ot ins place and run a
drug store. This movement is in keep-
tuc ou i ua i inaugurated in
Portland.
The druggists on the other hand de
clare that they have lived ud to the
spirit of the law, and that they do not
infringe upon the business of the saloon
keepers; that their sales are in the
direct lino of their business and for med

WORSE AND WORSE.
A lar-t? number of whrat storers in
the Ked Crown Mills, who have been
getting Hour, feed, etc, on their wheat
account have been surprised by receiv
ing siateiuenis i-om n adliams dc Co.,
of Portland, notifying them that accounts
of the Red Crown Mills had been trans
ferred to them and that there is due on
tbe same Uie sum of , which they
would please settle. It is said that about
(A.OOOon accounts have been transferred
to Wadhams & Co., and that farmers and
others who had gotten flour and feed
there expecting, of course, that it would
lie taken out of their wheat account, will
not only have to lose their wheat but al
so pay the bill. Very naturally those
receiving these statements are hot. and
if something doesn't pop it will be a
caution It looks very much as if pro
ceedings have been for the purpose of
delay. At all events litis is the ore vail
ing view. There is a growing indenta
tion at the manner in which the Red
Crown Milts affair lias been run.
Mr. btorkman met some of the credi
tors this afternoon, showing them their'
wheat balances. Ho stated that all flour
and mill feed accounts bail been credited
on wheat accounts, and that there sras a
misunderstanding on that point. Several
witn wheat accounts. Uiough. have re
ceived statements from Wadhams & Co.

for wheat purchased, and about SO.WO
bushels of wheat in storage. The assets
were estimated at $39,300, being $30,000
for the mill, $l x0 for town lots and
13,000 for accounts. Nearly all of the
accounts have been transferred to Wad

this done, and would do all possible to

As a great many of Uie wheat claims
are small ones Uie plan, even if success
ful, means that none but those having
big claims would get even stock, the gen
eral sentiment of small storers being that
they would not put anything in beyond
tneir wneat.
In the mean time the fact faces the
public that about 20.000 bushels of wheat
were ground up without the consent of
the owners.
