A good, consistent relieion will not harm any people and what we propose saying here is not to he considered as a fling at what may be termed "true religion," nor 13 it desired to injure the feelings of any of our people. It is with a view to protecting the interests and welfare of our com munity that we propose to touch on a tew things. " A couple of days ago unpleas ant recollections were brought to mind by the sound "of Salva tionists' cornet and drum on our streets. If these men have any knowledge of the outgrowth of former Armies in this city they are certainly brazen in their at tempt to again inflict themselves upon us. Anyone of some years resi dence in our city knows . ' of the . trouble that grew from a former Array that had barricks in Cor -vallis. They are aware of the enenviable reputation and notor lery that was ours because we were the hotbed of "Holy Roller- ism." Quiet is now ours and peace and harmony prevails and there is no earthly reason why we should permit a condition of .affairs that may again 'result in the humiliation of our citizens individually or collectively. Sanity in religion is as nec essary tor the well-being of a people as sanity in anything ' It -.fa Wlv nn5aiWp t.W ih j.i 1 -slums of some large cities th w,wa : i; oanauuuuuijf may UU a UUie good, butma community such wulud iucio io nj uusDivu iuri mem. ban any person review the history of this organization in Corvallis and say they have not done more harm than good? "We have numerous churches that very conpletely represent the more acceptable religions and to affiliate with one of these is right and proper, but we have no need to' burden ourselves : with an Army. ' -. - - WEAKNESS OF TARIFF REFORM. ' These Massachusetts Republi cans still call themselves Pro tectionists and affect a fine scorn of what they speak of ( as the Democratic Doctrine of Free- Trade, yet they asked for a larger measure of Free-Trade than'any Democrats would ' be willing to consent to. They want free raw materials and free coal for their factories, and that means f ree hides,sf ree wools, free iron and free wood pulp. Out in Iowa Governor Cum mins has long been known as favoring a measure of Tariff re ; form; but he would no doubt ob y ject to free wool and free hides. The West generally would ob ject to both; but the West wants a reduction of the duties on manufactured goods, to which Massachusetts would object. The difference is this: Massa , ehussstts wants to buy cheap wool and hides and sell clothing and shoes at high prices. The West , would lik3 to sell wool and hides at the best possible prices ' and buy cheap tothing and shoes. Tii3i 3 is a great variety of local interests operating in the same eontrary fashion all over the country, and that is why the Tariff reformers cannot get to gether and why the Tariff reform sentiment is always weaker than it would appear to be from the noise it makes.

Every wide-awake business man realizes that if he has a bargain for the public he must let it be known and to this end tive advertising along right lines will do" wonders for an individual will dowonders for an individual and it is reasonable to presume it will for Oregon if - rightly done. The Telegram gives the following interview touching this matter and it is worthy 6f some consider ation: - " ' ' "I think the idea of running an excursion to California under the' auspices of the Oregon De- velopment League an excellent one,' ' said t. W. Adams, Pacific Coast agent of the Nickel Plate line at San Francisco, while in the city yesterday. "Californ ians are much jnterested in Ore I notice that the travel from Southern Calitornia to Oregon and Washington is already heavy o the season is earlier than usual: as the movement generally begins after the holidays. The Spring and Summer business will prove better so tar as Portland is con cerned, aud it is a wise move for rortiaud and Uregon to arrange tod advertising in the East and Southern California in order to acquaint the prospective home- seekers and tourists with the at tractions ot the Pacific North west. ' "Portland's prospects are of the brightest, and advertising will improve them. Take the case otlyOS Angeles as an ex ample. I remember, not many years ago, when it was a smal city, it was decided to form : chamber of commerce. Almost the first work done by that or ganization :was to have cards printed bearing a number of . ... questions pertaining to agricul "lcac WC1C lu various resi these Mpntc r.f the. .-l -Al-t-i the request that short statements oe, maae ot tne time they acquir ed land. wUat it cost .the- vonrh expended and the returns of year's yield and return the in formation to the Chamber. "When these cards were as sembled the reports were printed ana thousands or ? copies were sent East. In a short time tons of that literature were distribut ed. Each person receiving i copy was asked to" write to anv c the farmers or growers mentioned tnerem to satisfy himself ot tb truthfulness "of the statements The result was a vast influx ot newcomers, who settled in and about Los Anseles.' and that is what made the city what it is to aay."
