IXX)KS GOOD FOB OBEGOX.
The Commercial Xational bank of
Chicago has just issued its annual
bulletin on the crop and business
condition of the country and in that
statement Oregon occupies a con
spicuous place among the list or
"well-to-do" states.
Oregon was Injured perhaps less by
the flurry of last fall than any other
western state and today there are no
viclble scars left from the alleged
panic which shook the foundation of
eastern financial institutions. The
report on Oregon is as follows:
Bank deposits are not materially
less than at the same time last year,
with about the same demand for
loans except In the sheep-raising sec
tions of the state, where the demand
is frreater, owing to the decrease In
the price of wool. What little com
mercial paper was bought by Oregon
banks proved satisfactory during the
trouble last fall. As for the smaller
banks the usual time for buying be
ing after October, there was little fall
ing due in that month.
One of our correspondents reports
that at the present time they are car
rying a quarter of their loans in com
mercial paper, the larger portion of
which will be due In time to provide
ample means for moving the crops.
Currency shipments for crop-moving
purposes are small and will be sup
plied almost exclusively from Port
land. There is practically no demand
for money to be used In moving crops.
There appears to be little interest
in the formation of a currency asso'
elation by the larger banks of the
state under the new currency law and
it will be Impossible to form one
without them.
As to general business conditions
while the volume Is somewhat less
than last year, prospects are very
bright and business is generally good,
showing a slow but steady Increase.
Merchants' collections are fair to
eood and trade has fallen off less
than 10 per cent In comparison with
last year.
As Is the case with Washington,
lumbering Is the largest single indus
try and has been seriously affected
by the recent panic. Prices, however,
are firmer and prospects are some
what better. Some of the men thrown
out of work by the closing of the saw
mills have left the stated and the bal
ance are employed in the fields. In
spite of this, in some agricultural
communities there Is a scarcity of la
bor. Building, as a whole, shows an in
crease over previous years, and farm
and fruit lands seems to be advancing
In price. One of our correspondents
In Portland reports that cTty real es
tate Is active.
As usual In election years, there Is
some uneasiness over the political sit
uation, as the wool Industry would
probably be affected by any change In
the tariff.
The opinion appears to be unani
mous that the outlook Is quite favor
tble, and as a lot of new territory will
be opened up by the completion of
the North Bank railroad and the rail
road to Ix-wiston, Idaho, there ap
pears to be foundation for this belief.
WILL ANYBODY RESIGN?
The Oregon Dally Journal says of.
the subject of Statement No. 1 re
publicans resigning from the legtsla-
who later died expatriated in Eng
land, loathed alike by Englishmen
and Americans. ,
A resignation or other subterfuge
for defeat of that which a majority
of the voters have ordained shall be,
is as treacherous as to enter the leg
islature and vote against the candi
date selected by the people.
That course, pronounced as proper
by Mr. Geer, who once stood In the
legislature and called upon republi
can legislators to vote for him after
he had received the party vote under
the Mays law, is a henlous offense
against decent citizenship, with mon
umental Inconsistency added.
Coming from a man of Mr. Geer's
intelligence, there is no charitable
view to take of it, nor possibly of
condoning It. It Is folly only equaled
by Mr. Geer's proposition to have
statement Xo. 1 the subject of a vote
in November, a suggestion that be
cause of its weirdness could come
from no other man In the state than
Mr. Geer.
Three times the people have voted
on statement No. 1 within a few
months. They voted In April at the
primaries, and the verdict was pro
nounced for it. They voted again in
June on the subject, and it was not
only for the statement, but to make
It compulsory, and that by an over
whelming verdict.
To have a vote on it in November
would be quite as nonsensical as to
have the people of Umatilla vote
again on whether Mr. Geer or Mr.
Ellis should go to congress.
HISTORY OF THE COLUMBIA.
Every lover of the west will await
with pleasure the coming of Prof. W.
D. Lyman's history of the great Co.
lumbia river, the river highway, the
gateway of the inland empire.
Picturesque, rich in history, gar
landed with natural scenery, unsur
passed In the world, environed with
romance, pathos, tragedy, a theme
for poets, an Inspiration for the ora
tor and author, the Columbia river
Is the richest treasure of the west,
and one of the most interesting rivers
of the world.
Along its banks one of the great
struggles with savagery that has been
recorded anywhere was fought for
forty years. If It could tell of the
tragedies that It has looked upon,
if It could speak the prayers of dy
ing men, murdered In the Inhospitable
wild before civilization came. If It
could tell the heart-breaking anguish
of pioneer mothers who followed Its
course with their little broods,
through savagery and peril, If It
could recount the lone battles that
have been fought with barbarism
along its entire length, what a thrill
ing chapter it could write In human
history!
Rut Prof. Lyman will catch a
glimpse of this vital history in his
coming work, and although he may
give a more prominent place to the
history of navigation and attempted
navigation of the Columbia, yet
through the warp and woof of his
story will run the golden thread of
romance and human Interest.
THE LAW WILL PREVAIL.
In spite of the constant tearing
down by a few men, the law will pre
vail. The world Is against the law
breaker. Society Is not on the side
of the criminal, no matter for his
boasts.
The prohibition law which has been
enacted by the people of about 20
counties In Oregon will prevail; There
are not enough lawbreakers to over
balance the law lovers. The sover
eign people who enacted this law,
can enact one still more stringent
and make It still more dangerous for
men to violate It.
And It is so with every right move
ment in human history. There may
be obstacles; there may be men who
are willing to tear down society;
there may be criminals who boast of
throwing off the yoke of restraint and
there may be men who will attempt
to debauch and corrupt and demor
alize the force of the law, but going
sented at this event this year, as Free-
water has made excellent arrange
ments for the day and a good time
will be assured.
WHAT IS SUNSHINE?
A little gold amidst the gray
That's sunshine;
A little brightness on the way
That's sunshine;
A little spreading of the blue,
A little widening of the view,
A little heaven breaking through
That's sunshine.
A little looking for the light
That's sunshine;
A little patience through the night
That's sunshine;
A little bowing of the will,
A little resting on the hill
A little standing very still
That's sunshine.
A little smiling through the tears
That's sunshine;
A little faith behind the fear
That's sunshine;
A little folding of the hands,
A little yielding of demands,
A little grace to understand
That's sunshine!
A CURE FOR

Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, which is
carried through the circulation to all portions of the system, lvvery muscle,
nerve, bone nd joint absorbs the acrid, pain-producing poison, causing
aches, inflammation, stiffness nnd other well known symptoms of the disease.
Permanent relief from the pains nnd discomfort of Rheumatism cannot be
expected from the use of liniments, plasters, and other external treatment
which does not reach the blood, where the catise is located. Such measures
give temporary relief, but in order to cure Rheumatism the uric ncid and
inflammatory poison must be expelled from the Mood. S. S. S. cures
Rheumatismbecau.se it is a perfect blood purifier. It goes down into the
circulation, neutralizes the uric acid and drives it from the blood. S. S. S.
expels the irritating, inflammatory matter which is causing the pain, swell
ing and other discomfort, enriches the weak, sour, blood, and permanently
cures Rheumatism. In all forms of Rheumatism, whether notite or chronic,
S. S. S. will be found a safe, vegetable remedy, possessing the properties
needed to cure, nnd at the same time a medicine that btti'ds up the entire

ALIEN.
When twilight comes,
And all the fluffy, twittering birds
are cuddled In their homes,
I wonder If the cuckoo's child
Feels strange among the rest,
And longs for her own mother's
wing In her own mother's nest.
When midnight falls
Upon the glooming branches which
' flank the forest walls,
I think the baby owl who tries
To flutter helpless wings
Must tremble at those other nests so
filled with sleeping things.
When morning breaks
And all the -radiant summer world of
tree and hilltop wakes,
I know that where the tiny roads
Peneath the grass-roots run,
A little eyeless mole Is sick with
longing for the sun.

AX ESTIMATE OF T. T. GEER.
T. T. Geer, who the people of Ore
gon honored by electing him gover
nor of this state. Is now advising the
statement No. 1 republican members
of the legislature to dishonor them
selves and flaunt the people who
elected them, by either refusing to
vote for the people's choice for Unit
ed States senator, or resign. Geer Is
like the "friend" appealed to by the
despondent man and whose ndvlce
was to put his property In his wife's
name and thus prevent the collection
of honest debts or to commit suicide.

space, equivalent to 27 acres.
There are 4200 rooms In the build

and 5200 doors, of which 3000 have
panels of ground glass.
Sixteen million bricks, 75.000,000
pounds of concrete and 25.000 tons
of steel have been consumed In Its
construction. Nearly 125 miles of
picture rail was tacked on the walls
of the rooms, 113 miles of electric
wiring was laid and 30,000 electric
light bulbs placed on 6000 electroliers
and 7000 brackets, and even these fig

There are 16 miles of plumbing, 29
miles of steam heating pipe and 95
miles of conduit. There are 39 ele

It Is estimated that 10.000 persons
will be lodged under the roof when
