TURNS EVER TO OREGON.
A most beautiful and elevating rite
has Just been performed in Portland.
Nat Brown, a miner of Butte, died re-
remiv ami before passing away, re
quested that his remains be cremated
and his dust scattered upon the Wll
inmettn river, which he nad loved
since boyhood.
After his death the oody was
shipped to the Portland crematory
and cremated, the ashes placed in an
urn and a friend to whom the execu
tion of the dead man's wishes had
been assigned, took a boat and row
ing slowly down the Willamette,
scattered the handful of ashes of the
old miner upon the stream he had
loved in life.
This is a most beautiful scene
throughout. It opens up the senti
mental side of cremation and removes
much of the horror of this mode of
disposal of the remains of the dead.
To think that your ashes might be
scattered in some loved spot, or might
he denoslted at the roots of flowers
or trees or placed where they might
he a perpetual reminder of your life,
to friends lingering behind, gives a
new beauty to the subject of crema
tion. The urn will tmally succeed
the tomb, throughout the world, U Is
believed, for both sanitary and senti
mental reasons.
be built here were It possible to reach
the trust prices, would be substantial
houses, for homes, and not for rent.
The carpenters and contractors all
over the country are Idle because of
the robberj' of the trust. Towns and
cities are held back In legitimate de
velopment and the country la ma
terially injured by this criminal com
bination. There Is no reason for lumber be
ing so high-priced In this country of
forests. In Kansas and Nebraska,
1600 miles from the Oregon forests,
Oregon lumber Is cheaper than It Is
In Pendleton today. It Is a cold
blooded combination without excuse
or Justification and should be so se
verely rebuked by the people that It
would never dare to extort an unearn
ed dollar from the public again.

Sojwell Is Oregon advertised by her

whenever anything good or unique or
attractive is wanted, the seeker turns
to this state as a sure resource.
Japan now has horse buyers in the

horses in Japan madj a demand for
more.
Colorado, Montana, Nebraska and
Michigan sheep buyers are scouring
'Oregon for fine sheep. Shipments of
Oregon sheep have so pleased buyers

they Instinctively turned to Oregon.
New York buyers are contracting

Henry I. Thoreau,
The war department continues to
receive claims from southerners who
lost their horses In the civil war on
their return from service with the
confederate army. Under the terms
of surrender they were entitled to
their horses.
For several ream claims of this
sort have been- paid by tne quarter
master general under a special pro-
Islon of law. to meet which, three ap
portionments have been made on each
occasion, with the expectation, that
there would be no further demand for
funds for that purpose.
The auditing officials say that there
will probably be no end to the claims
of this sort and they do not favor the
extension of the period of allowance
or additional appropriation to meet
hese belated bills.
It was expected there would be few
nstances where claims would be made
of the loss by confiscation of animals
belonging to confederate cavalrymen
under the circumstances described.
but as one war department officer,
familiar with the situation, describes
It. there appears to have been a
arger amount of cavalry In the dying
lays of the confederacy than lias been
dreamed! of In the surviving records,
These Irorse claims have probably
reached' their limit
WT1EN I AM DEAD.
When I am dead, my dearest,
Sing no' sad songs for me;
Plant thou' no roses at my head.
No shady cypress tree;
Be the. green grass above .me,
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And If thou wilt, remember.
And If thou wilt, forget.
I shall not see the shadows,
I shall nor feel the rain;
I shall not hear the nightingale
Sing on, as If In pain;
And. dreaming through the twilight
That doth not rise nor set,
Haply I may remember.
And haply may forget .
