Our liberal monies' men stnould at once step forward and see that aeans are not lacking to push forward the wort, so badly crippleS. These not mendicants in any but the best men in "the world are -unfortunate, as by lire, and prompt action at the opportune moment may relieve and not "be the occasion of embarrassing any one. 3eld np the 'bands of the urtkirtunate, thereby relieving their netesHUics. You waay be in the same boat some day, you fatsw not how soos. Let your quickest, best impulses move you without msraliring on -Chis subject This company weste in the full "Usxc of proapeiity, and suddenly their pros- .fncts received a check that no human fore anght could guard against. The company are making their arrangements to go ahead. snsd will finish sg some machines which they ! fortunate enough to save from deatruo- While their spirit and enterprise are actable, and all that, . yet some tangi- lile aid should be offered them tiy those who hsve capital at command. The company ca only hope to succeed by their own ener gies, prompted by offers of assistance at a ! when thev need it most. Firemen's Benefit. Arrangements are Tieing made by Mrs. England, added by local talent, to give a grand entertainment for the benefit of the Firemen of fiiis city. The ' tisae as annouaced is for the evening of June "36th, at Reeds Opera House. The Firemen J -will appear in full uniform, and it is expected nax ait wm nave a goou uuu I .gramme for tfce evening's entertainment will tie presented , iu due time. Mrs. England is -well knowiLW an accomplished musical di rector, and -she is fortunate in placing at i mm i id some of the best talent of the city -Israid in this musical entertainment. Pacific Life. A branch organization of -the Pacific Mreual Life Insurance Company, of California, was effected at this place yes--today evening, by CoL A. B. Covalt, of Portland, and C-. W.

The Pacific Life In snxsnce Company, of California, have or mized, as will "be seen by notice elsewhere, aad the names printed are a sufficient guar anty if the company needed any of good -management. C. W. Carey, General Agent, - is loo well known a a reliable gentleman to Tueed any commeadation at our hand- The mrariy propose a fair legitimate business, and those seeking the lienefits arising from judicious inveataM.nt, will tin thU a good -company we may lie permitted to say the Siest on the Coast Some of the gentituien running for office i the late city election in Portland were vat elected. Strange as this may seem, it (i-cipiaiued their popularity had nothing 4aido with it they had not votes enough when they came to ouunt np, hence they were not exactly "counted out," but "out tfwwited," which maLes quite a different esse with the nun beaten. ' JliAED From. Sirs. Gertrude MiSer 'writes to her bunbaml in this city, from San .Rafael Cal., under lute date, and says her health was improving until the very hot - weather set in, since whki time her health , has not improved. We .understand Dr. Wythe, her physician, advises a krag sea -voyage. Bound fob Ssowt.ks's. A B. Hirsch, for some tkne an invalid, started for Snow den Spring yesterday mornistg. It is to lie hoped that the mineral water and good -treatment which he is sure to seceive, may le of great benefit in restoring health. Josk TO the Misim J. ti. Wright, Ex- Jlayor, S. C Hammer, Surveyor, started, with sir. Briattfw as their publisher, for "Santiam Mines'' so said but we guess uey have only gtue a Iwhirig, and will be bene when "80 dav 's gets round." Wablike. dm. Chad wick yesterday despatched by rail ai' the military guns to the seat of war in the Indian country, ami telegraphed to Jackeuh county for all the juna there. His action is cominendably -prompt. rtumrUTJSG. yuite a numiwr ot our citizens are striking out lit "mud springs' and other localities on a rtjiecting tour. Jf energy and pluck win in the race these "entlemcu will certainly le rewarded. If you could only know what the future has in store foryou, pus ibly you would ih )Uc storehouse bad oner )cn built, EsTRRfsrst. Last January Mr. L. Sam uel, publisher of the West Shore, issued a maguisicent "holiday number of that val uable journal, which contained 44 pages of interesting reading matter, and 56 sngrav ing of scenes in the Pacific Northwest The satire edition cost about three thousand dol- kit, and surpassed anything ever attempted in the line of enterprising journalism oa the Pacific Coast. The enthusiastic reception given to that number, and the liberal pat ronage extended to him sues, have induced Mr. S. to issue a "midsummer holiday num her," and for the past two months his ar tists have been busily engaged in sketching beautiful scenery about the mouth of the Columbia river. Eastern and Southern Ore- gOflJJo .-Hurra Idaho, Eastern Washington Territor,, i.:.uai Columbia, and the great lumbering aud coal mining regions of Puget Sound. Besides these sketches a host of able writers are famishing interesting de scriptive articles. When ready for delivery, in July, this number will be a lasting monu ment to its enterprising publisher, and ac complish a vast -amount of good for the Pa cific Northwest. As Mr. S. furnishes these nianuMMitb editions to all yarly subscriber! without extra charge, and as the subscrip tion is only $1 .SO per yssr we think that every citizen -si Xhe Pacific North west should not only have this interesting journal in their own homes, but subscribe for extra copies. Address L. Sanutel, Portland, Ore-goo- t Auek Frttt Preserving. Some enter prising man that fully understands the busi ness should at once interview Messrs. Pat ton A Co., of the "Alden Fruit Preserving Co-,'" of this city, looking to the fruit crop that will -anon be on hand, and make such arrangements, as will at the proper time put into practical operatem the flue machinery used for jpreserving fruit by the "Alden" process. The reputation of the Salem works is AiDy established, and every pound of fruit -would sell at a good figure. There is bo such thing as overdoing the business toe past lias demonstrated this, and it only remains ior the practical carrying out of hints suggested. There can be no question as to results. Now is the time. Excn.r "Tm& Right Time." Mr. Titos. H Reynuljw "requests us to say that the Firemen's Entertainment and "Ben efit" will oome off at Reed's Opera House, on Wednesday evening, June 27th, the Keoord to the gokt&aby, notwithstanding. Mrs. England has her arrangements about completed, looking to the proposed "Bene fit," w hich places the character of the en tertainment beyond the word "fail." The Firemen propose seconding her every effort to please, by a varied and entertaining pro gramme, which will appear in due time ( "by authority7) in the IUily SeatesmaS. Taix AVbeat. From Mr. D. Howard, who is a close observer of such things, we learn that during a recent trip over Salem and Howell Prairies, the very tall wheat attracted his attention. Whole fields as high as his head and over which is about six feet. Mr. H. says that if heavy rains should come great damage would be the result, as the "long straw" would fall sure. Another marked feature, and not very en couraging, is the very short heads to the wheat too much straw very little wheat. This a) 'plies more particularly to the fall wheat. Cm-RCH Bviluinu. Elsewhere will be found a notice to buUders, touching propos als for work to be done in finishing np the new church edifice, belonging to the Metho dists. The committee are anxious to receive proosals from responsible bidders. Plans, etc., may be seen by calling at the parson age. We hojie, for the credit of our city, that all reasonable aid may be granted in furtherance of the plan adopted to tiaiah up the building. Thanks. To the brave Firemen and citi zens who responded so promptly in the hour of need. We can oidy at this time express our sense of gratitude, by assuring all that their efforts to save our property from fire, is fully appreciated, and we return our most cordial thanks.

CoTRAriKTORY. I). II. Wahlron, mana ger of the Allcghauiaus, contradict a state ment soade in some Portland palters. The message from Mr. Waldrou speaks for him : Cokvallis, June 21, 1877.

Doubtful taste, The silvkk question is attracting more at tention than the urn springs. The wind keeps "whirling" around and yet it don't rain. Very strange. Boston Post : The girl that bets on the races mast be a wis-wmk creature. The Portland Daily Bee is pouring "hot shot" into the ranks of its enemies. The wheat market is quiet. Very little coming in Kinney's still pay $1 10. Quite a number of our young men are "off for the war" provided they are wantod.

He will see thut uu get it promptly. Silverten people luvd bettor say something about their celebration. Say it "where it will do tbe most good." The Democratic candidate for Mayor of Portland was not elected strange as it may seem to the working men. ' More fine stock coming getting ready for the Fair. Ouly four mouths yet before you will hoar, "All aboard, " etc. Not many women are blacksmiths, but we learn from the Worcester Press that most "any erf them can shoo a hen." O. P. Morton is coming out here to deliver "Orations at St Joe" of course he is he has been doing that for a living. "Italian Clime" he was "climbing" to wards Lake Labisb the last we heard of him. He had his organ yet however. A young man who went from Auburn, New York, to Texas this spring, telegraphs to his father "Fatted Calf for one." In -"time of war" prepare for peace, by making it so "tropical" for the "red devils" that they will not know what hurts them, F L. Bristow, of the Mercury has gone to the mines, and George will have a Goon time while he is gone, "setting up things."

"They do say some "good men were beaten in Portland on Monday. Of course all "aood men" can't eet office there are not enough to go round. "Economy is wealth," sounds well enough, but when you come to substituting a tow string, and call it harness, wc are inclined to doubt the truth of the axiom.

"Thirty days" for stealing is what's the matter with "Bob" Fields this time, and he languishes in a cool and shady retreat called a jail, Reynolds gives better grub than the average hoodlum is used to. A "war of races is now coidc oa in Northern Idaho. There is no peace in tem porizing. Lo, the "poor Indian must either give way to the "pale face" or the re- verse there is no middle ground that has been tried, and is a failure. Albany folks are on their "taps," and "You hear me" they have, the metal up there "which same" is necessary in any worksespecially fire-works. They have chartered George Hughes, of Portland, the great pyrotechnist for the 4th. Supt. Gamble, of the Western Union Telegraph Co., places the use of (California lines at the disposal of 4th of July Com inittees. It is fair to presume that tbe same liberal spirit will extend over all the lines of this Company. Try it by way of "dispatch ing" things. "Xo Insurance" on tbe machine works Monday night. How nice it would have been to have had about $.".,000 or 8,000 in some good company say l"ho.nix of Hart ford, or the North British. If you are not insured now is the time to do it, for delays are dangerous. The wool clip East of the Mountains is said to be large, and the quality greatly im proved over last year's growth," Tb winter was favorable, and tbe sheep came through in good condition, which accounts for tbe increased yield, and certainly has something to do with the quality. Mrs. Davis' four babies at one birth in St. Louis were noticed a few days since by Eastern exchanges. The father was very proud and drunk when met by a newspaper ETGESE CTTT lTEslt. I Our regular correspondent at P.ugene, un der date of June Sst, sends the following : Blackberries are making their appearance in market. We are going to have a grand celebration on the 4th of July.

What is the matter ! Not a word aliout base ball for the last twenty-four hours. Something wrong. Russia is hard up, but the mvmlieri! of the Royal family have private estates that yield an anuual income of $13,'H)0,000. Geo. A. Ede, our efficient County Clerk, was called to Portland, yesterday, as a wit ness in some land case in lfcariy's Court. Wit is the boomerang tliat strikes and graciously returns to the band. Sarcasm is the envenomed ahaft that sticks m the giz zard. Out "on the ocean sailing" is a good scheme, provided you are not sailing under a pressure of canvass and unfavorable breezes. The Record has gone into the asi rasce business, and some other small things. The "morning paiier" tries to attend to legiti mate business.

ITEMS IN BRIEF. Indian war news very exciting. Who will be Chief of Police in Portland? . Campmeetings are running over in Tolk. Interviewing Morton will be in order. Useless task.

The eoplo at Ijewiston, the man says, blame Howard am!Mouteith for the whole thing.
