FKKSS A8S0C1 Alios PBESIDBHT, James S Stewart, the new' elected president of the Oregon State Press Association, wan born in IU'tray, ScotUud, in 1869. At the age of 19 bo came to America with Oregon M his destination. Mr ?teart worked hard, and, strengthened by principle of truth and integrity, gained the con- fidence and respect of those uround him. In 1890 he i urchnseil and took charge of the F "iil J nirna!, which has lieeu ste.v!i!y con log 10 the front, and is uow recognise! u one ofthe leading weekly hmj papers of the slate, being, ilt ly quoted bjr ihe press ot tin North' west. Mr Stewart is a great favorite among members ot the newspaper fraternity of the state. lo 1897 lie was elected second vice-president ofthe state association; in 1896 first vice-president, an i this fear at Astoria, president. In 1891 Mr Stewart was married to Miss Clara Knox, who was a teacher in the public schools ot Fossil.

Qood workmen ere s urce in Lane county at present and tin wages are rapidly on the inoreese; When the agent for the oontractors of the government work at Lane county's sea coast wa through here a short time ago he was desir ous of men at $1.73 a day for those works. Hut owing to exposure to the inclement weather and the dangerous character of this work good men were loath to accept an offer of this kind. Then the agent hinted that .f'2.23 per day might be paid for experienced men, hut none were to be found at that pri e. The agent is reported as laying men would be brought from Portland, but we think thai 'there will he work for all who icsirc from I. in' county. The Booth Kelly Lumber Com pany are adverti-ing for meu at 11.78 and $2.30 per day in their logging camps, and these works will continue indefinitely, besides the number required in harve-t mid hop-picking. Taking all this into consideration it is hard to ase wlu r.i Mr want-work gets off at in L ountyjust at present. If he is weak and cin't do heavy work, why! then there is the hop-picking, and the fruit gathering, and the straw-stacking at the threshers, tnd then there is the enuring on tho farms, milking etc, and in-door work in the towns. And if he is strong then there is the heavy work in the woods, at the machine in the fields, and on the government work, and the pay is certain; but if ho is strong and lazy then there is nothiug for him to do but to sit Dy his back-woods fireside or lounge about the etnot corners and howl calamity while the good people feed him; and this costs him nothkg and he gets uo pay. August 1S99 is a recorJ heaker for tbe Port o! Portland wheat shipment. Five oargoei of 550,- 000 bushels valued at 32y,00O were put atloat. In former years August shipment! wire very light, sometimes none bung put allot. Kantern builders of ships ami buildings where itmotura iron is used hardly know where to find themselves.

William J Bryan' definition of what wj got from pain in the Philippine! lor $20,000,000 is about the hest yet. We got "an option on the tight" which cite bad waged for 300 years. The total displacement of ships now under construction for the British navy amount to uo les th.in 488,000 ton . Oregon is doing herself proud with this weather.
