From a general standioint tho success of the single-rail and saddle-truck rail way system is exceeding the expecta tions of its best friends. Much interest is taken, especially at Portland, in the railroad revolution, and no less than forty-two projHisals have Ih-oh received by the construction company to build roads. Some are vague and chimerical , projects, it is true, but others are clear and practical. It is seen from the Ore gon Express that the company has re ceived and is considering a proposal to iiuihl a motor hue to a junnt live miles out in the suburbs of East Portland. , Then is little question but that this will lie the tirst road constructed on the new ! plan. It is expected that it will be in j operation March 15. Dr. Mahana, who was here on his way to Freewntor, is much pleased over the , present outlook. He has worked hard, and feels that his reward is near at hand. East Oregonian. HONORS CONFERRED. D. B. Rees, Formerly Mayor of this Cltv. Appointed Mayor of Ceatralla. our people.

Cotnim'nring Monday next, Oetols-r Mb, the Third annual fair of tho First Eastern Oregon Distrtct Agricultural Society will lie held at the grounds of the association near La Grande, and continue one week. The tirst fair of the Union County Agricultural Society held at the old grounds near Island City in 1S7; was a decided success ami for sev eral years gradually grew letter, but ..f... .. . iiiii-r 11 icw years, lor some cause or i other, interest Ih-gan to die away and after 14 years in the fall of 1SS7 the Iat meeting was held, In'ing verv light ly attended; and for the last two or three years the fair resulted in a loss to the stockholders. That an annual fair could be held and made a success in tins county there is no question, if properly managed, and while the coining fair is partially sup ported by the state, and the appropria tion will probably go to some other county in this district next year, there should lie an effort made to hold a fair in this county each year. A well-conducted fair in a county like Union is not only a source of instruction ' aml amusement, hut ot vast lvnotit to 'vating the soil and other matters of interest to yourselves and. tho commu nity at large. With such an incentive to further progress and development, why can we not go forward to (lie attainment of something better in tho future than we have accomplished in tho past? Why can't we show to the world, that we can improve on what we havo heretofore done and make our fair this fall one that will be the pride of every citizen of Union county? All that is required to do it, is for every man to put his shoulder to the wheel and resolve here and now that the coming fair slsill not only lie as good but better thau.any previous fair. Let there be no laggards in the race, but let everyone hsMip and. doing, and wo will have a fair bore next week that will not only be a surprise to our own people but to those -who ntiy be with us, from a distance.

Poison in No articlo entering so generally into the food of every "household is so generally and villainously adultered as bak ing powder. These adulterated powders are shoved upon the public with the greatest persistency. Throbbing advertisements in newspapers claiming this brand or that is absolutely pure, backed by analyses and cer tificates, and vet thev are adulterated with ammonia or alum. I: is to be hoped the law nmaufa.'turcrs and punish or tho unsuspecting consumer. Amid all this fraud and deceit Dr. Price's Cream Bak ing Powder stands almost alone battling for pure food and continues to furnish a pure cream of tartar powder at almost tho same cost to the people as the ammoina and ulura pow ders are sold at, yet it costs much more to manufacture. Dr. Price'n Cream Baking Powder is of tho highest strength. It produces the largest amount of leavening power attainable in a puro baking powder. It is free from ammo nia or any other adulteration.

McDowell t Co., I West Nth Street, New York, are again on our table. The suiwriority of these journals is abundantly shown on every 1 ige. "I.n Mode" is the smallest of the t.iree, and is intended for family use. I thus many styles for children, and is only $l.f0 per year, or 15 cents per ipy. "I.u Mode do Paris" is an elegant jour nal, filled with everything of the latest style in Paris. This is a irreat favorite i with the ladies who wish to keep posted in the new styles us they come out. "Album des Modes' is also a popular Parisian publication, many ladies giv ing it the preference. It is replete with such styles as are patronized by tho middle classes"., ts designs Iving neat and plain, yet all of the richest charac ter. These three monthly journals claim to give the earlioL fashions, and they are all printed in Paris. They contain lessons in practical dressmaking, which are of incomparable value and easy to understand. "La Mode de Par is" and the "Album des Modes" are each $.'i.r0 per annum, or .'15 cents for a single copy. Samples can 1h obtained from the house at single copy prices if there is any difficulty in obtaining them from new sdealers. Gratitude Still Extant. Contrary to the In-liefof some pessi mistic people, gratitude still exists in the nineteenth century. An eccentric old bachelor who died in Hamburg, Germany, a few wveks ago, left among other licqucsts 12,000 marks to a buxom widow of his native city. "I leave this money," he wrote in: explanation of his gift, "as a proof otnty gratitude for your refusal to beeomnjiiy wife thirty years ago.
