Albany considers the warning of the state board of health against impure water timely. Salem thinks It slan ous. ANXIOUS FOR INFORMATION It seems iust a trifle unkind for Mr. E. J. Bloom to neglect to mention the Boat of the industry which furnished the material for his story The Royal tninook," appearing In the current number of the Pacific Monthly. One may read in vain for any mention, even passing, of the city which the salmon Industry has buUded np, although the Illustrations are quite familiar to As- torluns. It might be well to edd for the edification-of." Mr. Bloom that his story Is not exactly correct In every de tail. He says that fishing on the lower Columbia is carried on largely by Finns "who have little interest in the affairs of civilisation further than it pertains to their own business." Not only are the Finnish people highly interested In civilization, but they are nfl well good cttteens, who have many repre sentatives in official positions. German club women, at a Hamburg convention, nave . denounced corsets and Jewelry as "barbarous" which Is just another way of saying that women are barbarians.

He says that In nearly every Instance those asking for in for matinn are desirous of Investing In and locating upon farming land, either 'In families or in colonies, and it .vould ap pear from the number and nature of the questions propounded that the peo ple of the east had very little or no knowledge whatever of the state of Oregon and Its vast and limitless re sources. Althorgh a tonsiderab'e amount of money has been expended in the i dver tlsc ment of the state in the cast, it can be readily oeen, says the Salem States man, that only a beginning has been made and that !t should be kept up un til every man, woman and child east of the Rock mountains and In the south is as familiar with Oregon, its climatic Advantages and resources as the peo ple of Oregon themselves.

Astoria, Ore., Sept 21, 'OS I have been requested by The As torian to write a recommendation of a work entitled "Life and Life-work of Pope Leo XIIL" by J. J. McGovern, D. D. It Is a pleasure to comply with this request In this volume we find con densed In compact form, all the facts t,t Interest In the life ot the great world-figure concerning whom It treats. Tt Is preeminently a practical biogra phy. Intended for the busy man with little time to spare; It displays an in sight into the great pontiff s career which denotes '.he close observer and careful studene on the part of the com piler. No man. be he a Catholic or a non-Catholic, can lay claim to a thorough knowledge of the political, social, religious history ot the lust quarter of the nineteenth century, who Is Ignorant of the life and work of Io XIII. This volume will In a measure, furnish a key to the secret of the deceased pontiff's wonderful success and influence In the world at largo. The author pays special at tention ;o Lw'i attitude towards the Vulted States. The chapters devoted to a consideration of "Leo XIII and Education" and "Activities in Helialt of Labor" are very timely. The even, non-polemnlcal tone of the volume re ennurend It alike to believer and un believer. The perusal of this book must needs prove uplifting, Ths typographical work Is well done and the Illustrations are highly Inter eating, and considering the price for which the volume Is oft-red It Is all that could be desired.

Sheldon, who hfw been employed by the Lewis and Clark state fair board to collect an exhibit of Oregon woods for the Louisiana Purchase ex- Dositlon at St. Louis. At the close of the St. Louis exposition the collection will be brought back to Portland and, with some additions, will be on exhibi tion at the Lewis and Clark fair In 1903. It Is the purpose of the state board to keep the Johnson collection of woods intact because of its value as a state exhibit and as a recognition of the sen-ices of A. J. Johnson, deceased. Mr. Johnson's Interest in Oregon for estry has been of Incalculable value to the state. It was for love of the work rather than for remuneration Mr.John eon labored in collecting the finest ex hibit of wood that has ever been pre pared for Oregon, and his work had not been confined to getting up a collection of the various wood specimens. He had been a factor In the practical develop ment of the lumber Industry aftd his work In that line is recognized by the Lewis and Clark fair board and by the millmen of the tate Mr. Johnson did much to attract the attention of eastern buyers to the qual ity of lumber produced In Oregon, and the Clatsop mill, of Astoria, and others will testify to the efficacy of his work in opening up new markets for their lumber. The Inquiries that came to Mr. Johnson concerning Oregon lumber were freely urned over to millmen and often resulted In the purchase of a bill of lumber, thus bringing together buy er and teller and expanding the lumber market of the state, and making no charge for his services.
