OREGON CITY OFFICE ROBBED.
KargUra Make a Haul of Two Thousand
l Ttnllara.
A. telegram was received this morning,
says the Telegram, in the United States
die trie t attorney's office from Postmas
ter S. R. Green of Oregon City, stating
that the postoffice had been entered last
night by burglars, the safe had been
robbed and in the neighborhood of $2000
in money, registered letters and stamps
taken.
District Attorney Mnrphy at once
started for the ecene, and this afternoon
telephoned to Assistant Attorney Scbna
bel the following particulars :
"The burglars are not only experts at
their business, but are evidently mem
bers of a well-organized gang who have
recently arrived in Oregon from Cali
fornia. The work of the men on the
Oregon City safe is identical with that
of the burglars who on Wednesday
night last blew open the safe of the
Hubbard postoffice. After that job they
have come to Oregon City, and are no
doubt now in Portland.
'The postoffice in Oregon City occu
pies the rear of a large store on the main
etreet, the front of the room being taken
up with a stationary and cigar store.
The -burglars effected an entrance by
prying open a rear door with a 'jimmy.'
"Tbey must have first (tone to the
cigar stand, which was mulcted of its
choicest cigars and a few cents in change
left in the money drawer. The men
then attacked the safe of Postmaster
Green, successfully opening it and tak
ing every possible thing of value the
safe contained, even to the private
papers of Mr. Green, which could be of
no value to them, and the pennies in
the stamp drawer. With cash, regis
tered letters, stamps etc., the robbers
must bave got away with at least $2000,
"Secret Service Inspector Gordan, who
has been to Hubbard investigating the
burglary there, was intercepted while
returning on the Salem train this after
noon and is now in Oregon City.
"Thus far no clew to the perpetrators
of the burglary here, beyond that it is
evidently the work of the same men who
irobbed the Hubbard office, has been ob
tained."

Speaking generally, the province of
Itritish Columbia icay l.e called a. beau
tiful wilderness. Thtnv av- 'U t':e csast

Virestminster. Gold mv:i'r.r :s bci. rr de-
eloped in the Kootecay district, th.o
era I of Xannfno :s. extensively worked.
nd there is fa.mi:nf along: the marshy
banks of the Lower Fraser. Canneries
and sawmills are (Totted here end tiers
along- the river bar.-.ik; j et, with all this.
0 high and rugged are the rr.ountr.jns.
sn dense the forests and so difficult the
ask of making- rcadr. or rai.lvays, that
probably . considerable portion of th:s
beautiful province will long remain cov
ered with ,iant red -woods, firs and
cedars nind inhabited only by the wolf,
bear and eagle.
The man who is not forced to depend
cn ea-jh year's crop for existence, and is
fond of the opm air or sport- will prob
ably find in British Columbia a con
genial occupation in ranchjr.g cr trj-icg-
to clear a forest farm, bnt the writer
would not recommend it as a field for
general agricultural emigration, when
a man has very small means and only his
ierht arm to depend on, as it generally
takes four vears or more to clear enough
and to keep three or four cattle, while
f you grow grain you cannot get it to
the market from the bush farm. For
the tro fisher, rifle shot or artist, it is
an "earthly paradise," and for such a
man there is a- subtle spell about this
lonely north land which once it enters
lis hea.rt can never be driven out. Pitts

Trotn the Hst furnished by the state

Umatilla third, with . 184,635 ; Morrow
fourth, with 136,930; Gilliam fifth, with

Harney leads in cattle, with 54,660;
Crook second, with 30,414, and Lake
third, with 25,412. Umatilla has 12,413
horses, Crook 11,119, Malheur 9,506, and
Harney 9,105. Douglas has 9,777 hogs,
While Grant has only 338, and Marion,
Strangely enough, is not on the list.
It may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restoring
the tired out nervous system to a healthy
vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine
is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates the Liver and Kidneys
and aids these organs in throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric Bit
ters improves the appetite,, aids diges
tton and is pronounced by those who
r have tried it as the very best blood pari
fier and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for

With the close of the Presidential Campaign THE TRIBUNE recognizes the
fact thai the American people are now anxious to give their attention to home and
business interests. To meet this condition, politics will have far less epace and
prominence, until another State or National occasion demands a renewal of the
fight for the principles for which THE TRIBUNE has labored from its inception
to the present day, and won its greatest victories.
Everv oossible effort will be pnt forth, and money freely spent, to make THE
instructive, entertaining and indispensable to each member oi tne lamiiy.
