Japan has too much grat itude for this country ever to One hears so much said about make , war upon ; it.. Japan's the tax-payer that it would seem ! great ambition is to. engraft West like a child should possess a ern science on Eastern culture thorough undersandmg oi the 'ana to oienatne uccidental and $ 2 pr anuum, or paid in advance. THE NEfESSARY MAN. r-r J terra now many oj. uur reau-, ers have given serious thought to whom the tax-payer really is? What constitutes a tax-payer? . In answer, 99 people out of every 100 will tell you that a tax payer is a party possessed of real or personal property on which an assessment is made in order to raise sums of money wherewith to meet the many expenses of maintaining national, state, 'and county offices; for the support of schools and many public institu tions. Also to make certain im provements of a public nature. When one has property on which a tax levy is made for the pur poses above enumerated, he is a tax-payer, according to the com ' mon idea. . AH very ' correct. But is the person owning the property , the the only tax-payer? - No! Every man who buys of our merchants is to a more or less degree a tax payer. He may not be a saver, but he is a toiler, a producer through his labor, and the return for this industry goes to him of whom he purchases - and in- this manner any man who, by his la bor pays his way as he goes, be comes a factor in the tax-paying problem. ' . s . One who serves far his livr ing, and lias no estate subject by law to a tax levy, can only be counted a tax-payer even on the lines we have prescribed when he patronizes his home people. By patronizing home industry he is- one of the necessities of his community; a producer; in a lim ited way, a tax-payer. But if he earns his living in a certain com munity, owns no taxable estate, but sends the reward" of his toil abroad for everything : he Con sumes, he is no longer a commu nity asset, look at it as you will He is a dram on the", community in which he lives and any section is better off without such men ratronize your own : people so long as they can supply that whicn you require. When you can no longer be supplied at home then you may be forgiven if you buy abroad. ' - Oriental civilization into one." According to the above para graph, Japan already has her work mapped out for another hundred years. Should she change her mind and conclude to whip us, she would have the hundred year's contract just the same. - CASTOR I A :"- For Infants and CUldxen.' Th8 Kind You Have Always Ecught - .

Cawood was tarred and feather ed at Goldendale, Wash. -- We have not learned the exact rea son, . if there was any, for such lavish outlay of feathers, time and tar,' but the papers are still publishing reviews from the rev erend gentleman. V " ' Rev. Cawood is at present back at his home in Portland," and ' is still preaching the gospel as he interprets it. Formerly he was a dentist and possibly may have drifted f rom a prpf ession that he understood into one for which he was unfitted- He certainly has the faith, for he is reported to have buttoned the tar and feath ers under his Prince Albert and continued to address his congre tion. . -. - . ' ... Portland reporters now declare him to be free of feathers and seem inclined to the opinion ithat he's a pretty good fellow after all, If he didn't save the feathers he is a loser on the deal, for they are worth 50 cents perjpound. TOO SOON FOR FEAR. Back From Coos. it is ever interesting to note the presistency of a certain class of individuals who are eternally - declaring that lightening is just about to "hit" somewhere. Con gressman J. "A. - T- Hull, chair man of the house committee on military '.. affairs, '; has given out that he is shivering with fear that far in the future we are to have war with Japan over the possession of ' the Philippines. He guesses the time of action to ' be about fifteen years hence. v . Congressman Hull and others are of the opinion that when '. Japan has drubbed Russia to her satisfaction the lads of the Flowery Kingdom will fancy they can whip any nation on earth and -. will cast covetous eyes upon ' the Philippines. Now, in truth, the Japanese are a peace-loving peo ple and are opposed to war. If their own peace and happinesses threatened they will fight, as all Christendom is aware. - But we, the people of the . United States, , are a just nation' and" will not give Japan any reason to believe that we wish .her people harm. Without a grievance on one . side or the other there ' will be no " war . , at any time, and "where is such grievance to spring from? At a recent club dinner in New rr i- August Fischer arrived . home, last Thursday,?, from a ten-days trip down' the coast. He went to Portland, and took the steamer to Coos Bay. Here Mr. Fischer reports to have found everything very quiet, but of course this is the quiet time ot the year. North Bend, a small place on the bay that has 'been . boomed like fury in the past, seemed to August, to be unusally quiet. The return trip our citizen made over land ana traveiea oy stage, on foot, and On horseback. . It took him three days to reach Yaquina Bay trom Marshfield. v ; J - ; Mr. Fischer made the trip in the interest of his flouring mills, and although be choose a very dull season of the year to make the trip; he reports that the out come was in every way satisfac Steamer Pomona leaves Cor- vallis, Mondays, Wednesdays and-Eridays, for Portland and all way points.
