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

Oregon Agriculturist: We have
many times sucsted t!..it the
state of Oregon should tu ike some
provision for the expenses of bold
iug farmer' institutes. Then are
now hut few states w'.iich do not do
this. In Oregon the farmer!.' insti
tutes which are held under the
auspices of the Agricultural College
are necessarily limited in number
because the expense connected with
holding these institutes is taken
from fuuds provided for other pur
poses. Oregon is oertalnly aide to
do as much as Utah in this line ot
work.tnd 1,'tah gives its agricultural
college if 1300 a year to cover the
expense of holding farmers' iusti-tutes.

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.
