Transcript. We learn that Bancroft & Co. propose now, if their series of - readers are adop ted, in this state, to exchange their books even for the Mine books of the old se ries.

The money circulating in thirty-nine cf the principal countries of the world shows a decrease of fifty-two millions of dollars in gold compared with a year a go, an increase of silver of forty-two millions of dollars ond an increase of pa per and of one hundred and twelve mil lions of dollar.

Fossil Oregon, Nov. 14, 1884. We h?ve received the sad intelligence of the death of our old time friend who vii'ted us in St Helens in the summer of 1883, Chester N. James. He did at bts residence near Wright'sjStaon, Cal ifornia, Oct. 15th. 1884, aged 48 years. The deceased ws lorn iu StraiFord. Connecticut. February MH, 1S3G. He removed to Wisconsin (t an early age, and thence to Kansas in 18 CO, later he located in Butler County, Kansas, at the junction of Walnut and Whit Rivers. Here he and Dr. Stewart and others lo cated the town of Augusta, nr a thriv ing city of 2,000 . inhabitants. After remaining there for several years he was elected Clrk of the District Court of said county and removed to Eldora.lo, the county seat, and remained them un til failing health brought him to Califor nia. He purchased a home in a beauti ful spot among the Santa Cruz hills and there died. He held many honorable-positions in his oM home, having universal, respect in every relation of tfoeleiy. II was Post Commander of the Knight? Tem plar, and occupied other posit ions of re sponsibility in Church and State. A good man has gone 4o rest A Christian, a loving, kind husar.d, a faithful brother and comrade has gone o his reward. He leave a kind and loving wife; theirs was a true marriage.

Editor Columbian: Many of us have waited for a long time for your pa per to come out with an article showing the true parts in regard to the bills le- fore Congress on the forfeiture of the R..R. Lands. - " . There are many in this. County who have not yet learned that the Hon. M. C. George fought for the settlers and that his bill was the only ene that pro tected us sho have R. R.Xands in 'our rights to the same. . .There is not a soldier m this State but who knows, or ought to know that Mr. George has stood his frind and worked early and late for our interests. I 'know of many claims of soldier, sent to him on which he spent many days, but which he finally pushed through and settled. '.,"'"'"' It is time that the settlers on R. R. lands, tlufsolditrs and the. working men in this County particularly, made some inquiry, found out what Mr. Gorg has done for us, and called on our Senator and Representative to do all tliey can to elect Mr. George U. S. Senator. I ask ni y old comrade all over this County to not be fooled by the state ments of partizan newpapers. I will by your permission in a f jw weeks send you a statement showing a part of what Mr. George has done for all of us. We want just such a man in the S en ate. There is not an hono -able man on this Coast but what will say of Mr. George provided he knows him that ho is an honorable man, one who is unimpc ashable and cnj who belongs to no monopoly or corporation, and who has to the utmost of his ability worked for the best interests of the peop'e. All know that he is a man who stands the equal of any in the Uuited States for talent and ability, and is besides a warm hearted, affable gentleman and a tried republican. -. . , --.lv Respectfully yours J.

EJUori of tfo Columbian : The publishers of Bancroft' Readers are placing those books lefore the Coun ty Superintendents of Oregon and ask ing their adoption in place of the Iude. pendent Readers in use during the past six yews. That the public iny know what is proposed, and what value lies in the proposal, wa desire to invoka the kindly offices of the Columbian iu plac ing the same tafore them. 1. Tux Educational Advantages- A comparison of the relative merits of the look as school readers cannot wll le made iu a newspaper article, where the books are not present to be compared. Without entering inv such comparison, it will be recognised -by every teacher and intelligent patron that the impetus given to the rtudy f reading, ar.4 the interest awakem-d in, it by the introduc tion into the schools ol -Teadiag matter with bright new illustration, annt help leing gTeat. Thw,new interest and enthusiasm will also communicate itself to other studies. No one doubt Hr-se propositions. As taar'ej on the ques tion of tb adaptation ot th Indepen dent Readers to present -method of in stractiou it should I stated, alo, that the publishers cf tltat series kave igsucd an entirely nw series withirt b year. base J on ny?thods c;uiije oppoaii to those which obtain in the old boelcs. The in ference can:tot I avoided that the se ries has lost the confidence of the old great ldy of teachers. 2. Tns" Fujasci-M. Gain.

The financial gin will alsa appear (2) in the yai the time of exeftanj: At this point comes in th objector and says : M But what are we going to do with jur old books. We can't afford to throw them all away and get new ones." The publishers wera prepared for this objection, because it is not a new one. But they do not meet it k it has leen met by other puMuhera on former occa- a A i t a m. . .1 violin. heeUJese ox tne inerpt nun vithe of t!ie public. On t! contrary the peblic interest has leen consulted as well as then publisher's interest, and the objtion is generously met by a propo sition which net only call for no sacri fice of any reader now in use, but on the contrary, when ary such reader can Iks no longer naed by it owner it will b accepted in paymens of lite book next required. The hardships which the pub lic has heretofore eiperienced in a change, aiiea froic the following fjicts: 1st That only the ld reader of a particular gale was received for a nw readier of the same grale ; that is, a First. Re-.vlcr for a First Reader, a Secoi.d Re uler for a Seooiwi Header etc. 2nd. That at the end of three months this mild extortion was replaced by a prompt advance to full prices for all books purchased, the old looks remain ing in the hands of the pupil, counting for a'osolutly nothing. Bancroft & Co. present no forcing process of this kind. There proposition differs from the above in both particu lars. 1st When school opens after July 1885, all children who have finished their old reaJcrs may exchange them for the new higher reader tliat must be tought in any irtnt, and save J of the usual price. This saying "considerably more than offsets in any family any oc casional old book which a younger child could take. Figure i out and sea. 2nd. All children who hare not hn Ished their old readers, at tlie close f the preceding year, can give them in payment for the higher lioo'i which they need when the lower w finished in six months or in twelvt month or eighteen months or any other time htn they need the higher book. When they get these higher lxjoks for hte first time in this vay the prices will be for second reader 15c, instead of 50, third reader 25c, instead ef 75, for fourth reader 30c, instead of $1, for fifth reader 35c, instead of $1.25. On this proposition it is impossible for any one to figure out any expendi ture occasioned by the change. There is none. So confident are the publish ers of this that they are ready to furnish any family with a complete set of their elegant new readers, where a fair and lull figuring does not show again to re sults -o such family from tho change. Moreover, the new readers are all, from first to fifth, Isjuud in cloth, with out extra charge. A first or second reader bound-in cloth will last twice as long as the usual binding such j. bind? i)ig aa tf mplojed on the present eerie. But in addition to this the Indepen dent series has a sixth reader which is used in many schools increasing the cost $1.50. .We have given the prices at which the Independent Readers have leen sold.. If these prices are reduced when the publishers solicit a new con tract, it will be because our competition has forced them to it, but tliey have not, up to thu time, been reduced in Oregon. It may be of interest to the public, how ever, to know that the publishers of the Independent readers offered them to the Board of Washington Territory on the 17th of last July at 30c a set cheaper than this. Why they were not reduced to the people of ' Oregon : at the same time so that they could avail thwmselves of the reduction during the present year, it is not tor the publisher of Ban croft' readers to explain. We ask, ofthe "public the careful consideration of the alove proposition. We think that' 1 th bugbear of extra "cost" in makinga change, iw put to death. We have mad? the statement us fairly a? we know how to make it We ask only that iit should not be re jected without ihv3tigutiou and investi gation is inevitable acceptance. . A L . .Bancroft fe Co.

We have had the loan of a look from Mr. T. H.

Three years later he set tled on the farm where he now resides. Tha farm was thfn nearly all a wi!der--ness only alout rive acres being chopped but not cleared. On this clearing cr 'alashedw lot, he built a leg house and commenced imp: cements. He now has a finely caltivated farm ofj 170 acres, well furnished with farm buildings, etc. His father, -mother, and three sisters made their hoie.e with him, and the mother is still living, aged eighty-four years, lie is the father of three chil dren., the only son residiuz at home with him.
