Th ProbabU Outcome.
The suit of the e nnloyei of the
Oregon Pacific railroad for tlieir
delinquent wages, came ii befoie
Judge Pipes at Orvaliis yesterday
at 1 o'clock. Attorney tieneral

K. Weatherfor.l of this city, ap

Mc Far land A Turner, of New Yor

The case was argue), and the
com t issued an "rder that the
road be wold n December t, alo
that the reci-iver's certificates be.
iiwued to each employe covering
the respective jinounts due them,
so tint they should be entered as
preferred claims, a firt lien, to
be paid first out of the proceed ol
the sale.
While this is not what the em
ployes had hoped for, it will in
sure them receiving all of their
pay by the dale named. It is iut
known what action they will take.
While it is certa nly true that ihy
should have been pa:d long ai, a
strike now would not help matters,
and the only sure and safe way for
them to proceed would feem to be
to continue to operate the road,
and secure their pay by waiting
six wjeks longer.
The Herald ha heretofore felt
justified in criticising the manage
ment of the road for allowing its
faithful employes to go unpaid so
lung, but it should alai be remem
bered that the present manage
ment has beenmibairanstd by tlio
war among the New York bond
holders and could not carry out
their plans as speedily us they
wished. The case is now niai itig
a settement, by which the men
will receive their pay, and th
road will be reorgan.ed on a b.ts'S
to insure ite completion to an
eastern connection. Col. Hogg
has spent the best pat of his life
in this undertaking. There U no
denying the fact tliat he lus
mapped out a great work, in w hich
he has associated with hiinseli
some of the wealthy and iutlneu
tial railroad men "of New York.
They own extensive :roiierty in
tc rests in Albany and it would I e
to their interest tJ aha ce and
promote the groxth of this city.
J f they secure control of the road
at the sale as the Hekai i pret);cts
they will do, they will tuen be in
a position to carry out their plans
tor the extension ot the roau,
which has heretofore been pre
vented by the war among the land
holders. The people of Albany
have confidence tiiat Col. Ifogg,
Mr. Coe and his associates will
have the ability to do this, and if
they are selected by the aien
Whose millions are backing the
road to carry this work fo ward
ttey will hope to see them succeed
DIITED PRE8BITERIAH SYNOD.
The synod met yesterday morn
at i o'clock. The t lection of mod
uator resulted ;n tint choice of
Hev. II. W. Crabbe of Los Angeles.
Mr. Crabbe has been pastor of a
congregation there for four yearn,
and previous to his coming I tli
coast he was a succes ul pastor at
ISutfa'o, N. Y.
But little was done in the for:
noon except the appointing of
various committees and t!ie refe--ting
to them of matters brought
befoie the syuod.
! At noon lunch was a ;ain served
at the residence of Mrs. Waller
Monteith. It was a magnilicent
banquet, and was eideutly, ai
predated by the members ol the
fry nod.
In the afternoon, spiiit;d con
ferences were held on The Hoard
jof the Church and on Finances.
.The moderator opened )iHciieion
on the former theme ; and Rev. A.
F. Kirkpatrick on the latter. Mr.
Kirkpatrick is in a cense, an ex
pert on matters of finance. He
ims done much in other paitsof
the church to increase the contri
butions to benevolent objects.
Through his ellorts the KxtraCeut
a Day band was organized ; a large
number of the synod's members
uniting in such an orgau: -ation.
In the evening Rev. . A
Spaalding of Spokane preached an
able sermon.
The Oregon Presbytery held a
brief session at which it decided to
petition the synod for a division
into two presbyttries.
The petition will doubtless be
graared, and in turn the synod
will probably ask the a siubly to
be formed into two synods, tins
marks the growth of the church on
this western coast.
Th Waterlo Hosiery Factory.
A company has been organized
to build and operate at Warerlooa
factory for the manufacture of
hosiery and all kinds of woolen
goods. The plant has already I een
purchased at a cost of tit,tMHi and is
being packed and will be in Leba
non inside of thirty days. Lum
ber has been secured and will le

build a large shed in which to store
the machinery until the mil) cm
be constructed. Tin mill will em
ploy 150 men. The machinery
altogether weighs 150 tons.

OREQOH AT THE WORLD'S FAIR.
A rianl Effort Being Mad to Raise Finds
for the Exhibit.
Active steps are now beiug taken
by the Oregon State Board of
Commerce to raise money for the
Oregon exhibit at the world's fair,
the matter having been thorough
ly discussed at the recent meeting
of the board in Portland. The
plan, as decided upon, is to raise
$25,0 H) at least, and an effort will
be made in some manner to
increase thd amount to $100,000.
Canvassers are being appointed
and sent out over the state with
authority, and the proper docu-
menm, lo bohcu Biiuecripuona
Mr. W. II. II. Grant, one of the
canvat-seis, has started south and
Major (ieorge W. Ingalls. another
canvasser, will go to Eastern Ore
gon next Monday. Each canvasser
has a letter of authority and ex
planation from the executive com
mittee on the World's Columbian
exposition, and is supplied with
blank notes and receipts. The
notes are void unless there ehall
be raised the sum of 125,000. The
members of te executive commit
tee are :
Charier II. Dodd, of Portland,
chairman ; Henry Failing, of Port
land, treasurer; Charles Randolph,
of Portland, secretary; T, F.
Osborn, Portland; S. M, Yoran.

The letter to the people of Ore

Dodd, chairman, and Charles
Randolph, secretary, is as follows:
THE BOARD'S APPEAL.
Fellow citizens : Preparations
for aeuitable display at the World's
Columbian Exposition at Chicago,
18V):f are believed to be well un Jer
way, and many of them far ad
vanced, in every state in the
I Union, except only Oreg n
I tie people oi in is Biaie are gen
erally aware of the steps which
have heretofore been taken to
place Oregon, in at least soe
degree, abreast of her sister s.ates
in this important matter, lt was
believed by most of our c.tizens
that an appropriation ol a reason
able sum of money ought to have
been made by the legislature
of the state for this purpose; in
this, however, we were disap
pointed. The reason for that
failure need not be discussed;
suffice it to say that we are now
confronted with the fact that un
less the people themselves volun
tarily as-nine the work of supply
ing the means nothing is likely to
be done to maintain a creditable
position for the etate, and secure
the advantages to be derived to its
people and all its property in
terests by a fair exhibition tf its
productions and resoutces in that
which promises to be by far the
greatest exposition the world has
ever seen.
With a view to making a definite
effort in this behalf, and in the
absence of any other known move
ment in that direction, the Oregon
State Board of Commerce has
appointed a special executive
committee, named above, for the
purpose of raising a sufficient find
to secure a proper exhibit on be
half of Oregon at this exposition.
It calls for no apology from us in
presenting this subject to your
attention, believing as we do, that
it is one which ought to, and pre
sumably does, interest every citi
zen of the state, and especially all
who feel any degree of state pride
and desire to place the state before
the p ople of the world in its true
attitude as respect its advantages
and marvelous resources in coir
pari o i with any othtr section of
our country.
To accomplish the end in view
in anything like a satis actory
manner will require a considerable
sum of money. Something can
be done with ifJ.VO M), but at least
$100,000 ought to be economically
expended in preparing for a credit
able exhibit and in caring for it
during the six mouths of the con
tinuance of the exposition. Our
neighboring state on the toutb
has appropriated $:;00.0U0, and
our infant neighbor an the nortn
100,0li of public money for this
purpose.
This committee has decided that
a canvass of the state shall be
made, and the people asked to
contribute to the fund proposed to
be raised. We shall endeavor to
secure an aggregate sum as large
at possible, but have concluded
that unless we can, within a rcu
sonable time, raise at least &25.0JO,
we must abandon the effort, as
less than that sum could not pre
duce results which would be other
than mortifying to the p.-ide of
every Oregonian.
The committee in the iirosecn
tion of the work before them,
lie re by authorize the bearer here
of. Mr. W. H. II. iran,to visit
such portions of the slate as he can
obtain subscriptions to the pro
ixisedfund; conditioned that all
such subscriptions are contingent
on the aggregate amount raised,
Peing at least fl'o.OOO, the subscrip
tions failing to leach that sum in
the aggregate, all agreement on
account of them to be void and of
no ttlt-ct.
We commend our solicitor to
your pitiioric cjusidcration and
to your liberality asaci'izen and
well wisher to the best inte ests t f
Oregon.

Doctor prescribed : Cnatorial
40 years the standard
A Pure Cream
Tartar Powder
Dr. Price gives larger and fuller cans than those
of any other Baking Powder manufacturer.
Above cut represents the comparative size of one pound can each
'Dr. Price's," Royal" and "Taylor's One Spoon." These cans were
set side by side, then photographed down in exact proportions to
admit the plate in this space. Ask your grocer to set a one pound
can of any other brand alongside 1 lb. Dr. Price's Cream Baking
Powder, and observe the difference, as illustrated above.
Adulterated powders may usually be detected by their heavier
bulk, as shown by the 6mall cans, and these scantily filled, often
containing a circular to help fill out the cans. It is a singular fact
that many of the ammonia and alum baking powders are advertised
as "Absolutely Pure," All official examinations prove that it would
be safe to reject all powders labeled absolutely pure.
The economy in using Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder does
not consist alone in the fact that much larger and fuller cans are
given, but Dr. Price's is a stronger, purer and more wholesome bak
ing powder than any other known. Does better work, and goes
farther, hence more economical in every way.
What woman would use an ammonia or alum baking powder if
she knew it ? Such powders not only undermine the health, but
ammonia gives to the complexion a sallow and blotched appearance.
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is reported by all
authorities as free from ammonia, alum, lime, or any other
adulterant. The purity of this ideal powder has never been
questioned.
Refuse all substitutes they uiy conceal ammonia or alum.
