San Fran Cisco ranked ninth among the cities of the l.'nlted States -In the "last cen sua year. It then had a populationof 3!,000.- while PorUand claimed scarcely more than 90,000 and Seattle only about 60.000. In point of fer tillty and scenery, the northern states of the Pacific coast closely rival their southern neighbor.

But for that help It is doubtful whether she would have enjoyed greater prosperity than Or egon or Washington. Even yet the resources of the latter two have been utilised Imperfectly. Both have grand future before them. The interval of time . which will elatme between the 8t Louis and Port ana iinrs is so snort that the one which Is to be held next year is placed at a disadvantage. It cannot hope to rival the one Just ended. Perhaps It will be national rather than interna tional in scope. All the same, it will perform many useful functions. One of these Is that It will reveal the kind of stuff of which the men are made who are shaping the destiny of the North Paoific coast. o IOVE SONG. I The land thieves are making des perate efforts to tamper with the fed eral grand Jury now ' in session In Portland. Men of Influence are be ing Imported to create sympathy. It is known "that one Juror was unsuc cessfuily approaohed. The govern ment Is using utmost precautions to prevent Information from leaking from the Jury room or communication being established with It. 8. B. Orms by. the ex-forest superintendent of the Cascade forest reserve, a protege Love's for Youth, and hot for Age, E'en though Age should wear a crown: For the Poet, not the Hage: Not the Monarch, but the Clown. Love's for Peace, and not for War, E'en though War bring all renown; For the Violet, not the Star; For the Meadow, not the Town. Love's for lads and Love's for jnalds. Courts a smile and files a frown; Love's for Love, and saucy Jttdes Love Love most when' Love has flown. Love a cruel tyrant Is: Slays his victims with a glance. , Straight recovers with a kiss, - But to slay again, perchance. Wouldst thou know where Love doth bide? - ' Whence his sharpest arrows fly? In a dimple Love may hide. Or the ambush of an eye. Wert thou clad In triple mail. In a desert far apart, Not a whit would this avail: Love would find and pierce thy heart. -r Thomas Nelson Page, In the Jan uary Srlbner's. Brewery Sold.

CANTEEN GONE FOREVER. canteen and anti-canteen talk Is heard everywhere. The majority, in fact. 90 per cent of the army officers. are in favor of restoring the canteen, of allowing a room in every post where beer and light liquors can be sold to the soldiers. Many cases are pointed out Bhowlng that the morali ty of the men would be better, dli clpllne would be Improved, and that the health of the soldiers would be much better if the canteen was again allowed at army posts and on military reservations. But what use is all this argument, this mnss of evidence and weight of testimony? The canteen has gone, and gone forever. Instead of restor ation, there is likely to be greater re' strlctlons. It would not be surprising If the prohibition advocates and the temperance workers some time secur ed the passage of a bill prohibiting soldiers, sailors and employes of the government from drinking. And why not? Great railroad corporations demand that their employes shall not drink quor. If the United States Insisted that Its officers of the nrmy and navy. ENDOKHKR IN THE EAST. That the Lewis and Clark exposi tion Is receiving attention in the East is proven by the following editorial tram the New York Tribune Farmer, a paper that has a large circulation throughout the Kit stern and Middle Western states. The fuir will prove a wonderful stimulant to Western immigration: Close upon the heels of the World's Fnlr at St. Louis will come another, but less ambitious, exhibition of the same sort in this country. Portland. Or., is about to celebrate an event of xnuch Importance to the North Paci fic coast, the arrival there of Lewis and Clark, two of the earliest explor--ers of that region. Their overland Journey thither began hi 1804, and was finished the following year. For the centennial show which is being organized in their honor, and which will be formally opened next May. the preparations are well udvanced. An area less extensive than that re quired at St. Louis is to be occupied, and the buildings will be fewer In number and leas Imposing in dimen sions. Nevertheless, several of the larger structures are said to be so near completion that the removal of exhibits .from Bt. Louis thereto Is now practicable. To encourage such a transfer the railways have made a special freight tariff, which went into effect ou December 1. Co-operation py ths national and a number of state government that of Massachusetts among them Is .assured, and the pro jectors of tbe undertaking are an ticipating a large measure of success. The landtag of Captain Robert Gray, of Boston, at the mouth of the Columbia river. In 17M. was not without inflaenoe on history. His x Alterations .furnished the basis for a tatm to the adjacent territory by the United States. ln . - determining ' whether Washington or London should rule ths territory, Oray's Ten lure may nave gone further than the 'more dangeroas and difficult service "f Lewis aad Clark. Tbe mission of -the latter, however, was ' significant in several ways. It grew out of the .Louisiana pare base, and was inspired by Jefferson's desire to find a high way through the newly-acquired pos aiesslons' to the ocean which laved the western shores of the continent '4 "At that time California did not be long to this country, and an outlet was sought further north. ' Leaving Fort Mandan, on the Upper Missouri, , in April, Lewis and Clark endured great privations while crossing the ''Rockies and examining the Columbia, !and they narrowly escaped starva tion. There Is no probability that thelr heroism will be overrated by -the local historian.

When a gang begins "peaching" upon each other, all are In a panic and no man of the lot knows who will weuken next and bring hfm Into the tolls. Being a rogue Is very nerve-wearing business. It Is like trying to feel at ease on the crest of a ' volcano.- It is the uncer tainty of when it is going to break loose that wears on one. Ah long us the Mormons enn get off with fines there la little prospect of abating the evils of polygamy. What is needed is drastic treatment of the evil. One cunnot temporize with a cancer, it must be cut out. Long terms in the penitentiary for polyga mous practices would soon destroy the practice. In the testimony at the Reed Bmoot trial yesterday it devel oped that Apostle Merrill hud nine wives and 47 children. Two of these wives he has married since the mani festo. Other equally flagrant viola tions of the law were brought out in the testimony. Thanks to the generous action of Dr. and Mrs. Coe, Sacajuwea cast in copper, will point the western path at the Lewis and Clark exposition. It will take 22.000 poudds of copper which comes from the country which was explored by the early pathfinders. Not only will they give the copper for, the statue but Mrs. Coe will have made, at her own expense, a large number of souvenir spoons, which will be sold to help raise the neces sary fpnd toward casting the statue. It Is a generous gift. - Ex-Senator George L. Bhoup of Idaho, who since the close of the Civil war has been a prominent figure In the development of tbe material re sources) of Idaho as well as having been Identified with Hs politics, has Just died. The death of Senator Shoup removes a picturesque figure from the halls of legislation. Though born In the East he had become a part of the virile West and was a typical Westerner. Portland is becoming the lfeeca of thugs and pickpockets. Reports of thefts are of dally occurrence. A vigorous campaign should be inaugur ated to rid the city of the undesirable element.

The people who ure advocating temperance re forms will stop at nothing, and have the power to prevent the ennteen from being restored, and If they thought they could puss a law for bidding every person who draws 1 government snlnry from taking a drink they would do It as qulok as a wink.
