We are not dissatisfied with our goods; they are all right, for our business
during the present year has been extremely satisfactory, beyond any sanguine an
ticipations we might have. formed at its commencement. We therefore owe some
thing to our friends and customers, and will endeavor to show our appreciation of
their kindness by giving them an opportunity of selecting from our stock, goods
at away below reguHv prices. As every article in the house will be marked down
it will be impossiLi for us to be ready until Wednesday. To avoid confusion,

This year our sale will be. far more important than ever before, as our stock is fuller,
more varied, and owing to our taking advantage of Tariff changes and the business de
pression, allows us to offer more tempting prices. Wow is the time to get out your sav
ings and invest them to good advantage. While a Dollar in our house is not any bigger
in size than anywhere else, it looks so because it will buy so much more. This is not a
sale of old goods carried over from year to year, for at the commencement of the year our
stock was extremely low, and this has allowed us to be liberal buyers. This is strictly a

The Markets.
There is little or no change in the
staples, wheat maintains its price, but
the bears knocked it down temporarily
at Sound points a cent or two a bushel
last week. The arrivals here have fallen
off largely on account of the bad condi
tion of the roads, and the further fact
that the larger portion of - the crop has
been delivered. , -
Potatoes are firm, but prices remain
unchanged rating from 50 to 60 cents
per sack, the former being the usual
price, the latter for a small lot or two of
extra quality.
Hogs have fallen off, $3.50 per hundred
being the the standard price, though one
small lot from Klickitat, in extra condi
tion brought Wednesday $3.60.
Eggs are quite plentiful at 30 cents.
There is an abundance of vegetables,
cabbage, cauliflower, beets, turnips, car-
pts, onions, celery, sweet potatoes and
some radishes and young onions.
Oranges are plentiful and cheap con
sidering the. earliness of the Eeason, as
are also lemons and bananas.
Apples are at all prices because they
are of all qualities, so tnat it is impossi
ble to set a price. They range from 50
cents to $1.50 per box and even higher. '

Teachers' Institute.
Owing to some lack of preparation,
and the absence of two of those on the
program, it was not carried out as
printed for the afternoon. . However,
Mies Sears gave a .most interesting talk
in lieu of her promised paper on "Busy
Work in Primary Classes." Profs. Gor-
ham and Frazier being absent, Prof.
Gavin promptly came forward and gave
one of his admirable talks on "The Use
of the Globe."', There was little or no
discussion during the. afternoon session.
The presence of a number of pushing
agents of rival publishing houses adds
life and interest to the institute.
EVENING EXERCISES.
The overcrowded condition of the
opera house long before the beginning
of the exercises, showed the urgent need
of a larger hall for such gatherings.
The singing as very good ; recitation
by Bessie French extra good; but the
doll drill was just good, gooder, goodest 1
The address by Professor Chapman, of
the State University, was most earnest,
able, and a scholarly plea for higher
education. Perhaps the most notewor
thy point in the address was the em
phasis given to the necessity of acquir
ing the ability to express one's self cor
rectly, forcibly and fluently in the
English language.
this morning's session..
The teachers were rather Blow in as
sembling, beveral new faces were to
be seen, among them being Prot A.'
Frazier and: Miss Edith Peabody, of the
Dufur school. - After some excellent
singing and roll call, the critic made her
report. While some mistakes were
noted, the warm commendation of the
many excellencies of yesterday's work
must have been a halm for all wounds
made by the criticisms.
The discussion of the "County Course
of Study in Ungraded Schools" showed
that the teachess ot the county are alive
to the necessity of some system of grad
ing schools, whereby uniformity and def
inite results shall be secured. The
greatest difficulty-found in trying to use
the present course has. been on account
of opposition on the part of parents.

goods will be sold at regular prices until then. ' . . " . . i .
Of course, if you haven't a cent in the world, these reduced prices will be of
little service to you. Or if you have so much money that you don't know how to
spend it, then reductions are not an inducement. But if you are like the ma
jority of people, with just a little money and inclined to make it go as far as pos
sible, then our figures are interesting. We want in this sale to see how much
more we can make a Dollar buy than it used to.
The same may be said of the finely
composed essay on "Silent Force in
School Government," by Miss Everhart.
Lack of time cut short any discussion, of
these very important subjects..' The sug
gestions of the essayists were however so
thorough and appropriate that further
discussion seemed unnecessary.
The. time wps too limited for a profita
ble discussion of map drawing, yet the
talk and blackboard illustration of Prof.
Asa Stogsdill . were interesting and in
structive, and elicited some valuable
comments. ..
R. A. Gailey read a well composed
eulogy on the value of mathematical
study.
There was one almost inexcusable
mistake in yesterday's report, wherein
it was stated Miss Callison waa organist.
This was wrong as Miss Hollister pre
