1 It &: - a When the LoDg Creek and John Day wagon road i8 free and kept in good repair, as will be the case, the business from that sectiou to Pendleton will be larger than it ever has been before. Good roads always increase business. This is from the East Oregonian and is in a large measure true. While Heppner has a great ad vantage over Pendleton in being nearer to this trade, and on the line of the natural outlet for the biggest portion of the interior settlements, yet it stands our people in hand to see that the roads leading to this city are kept in good repair. Through the push of Pendleton's live business men the road leading to that place from Long Creek has been made free and freighters and others going over it will in the future have no toll to pay. This removes another barrier to Pendleton's getting trade that rightfully belongs to Ileppner. So let us be up and doiDg, holding the prestige we already have, and continue to reach out in every legitimate way to gain more. Ileppner merchants can sell just as cheaply as can those of our sister city, and they have demon strated their ability to handle this trade in a manner very satisfactory to the great number of Grant county people who have done their trading here this season. a cow with him, and, notwithstand ing the terrible fighting he did, he never lost that cow nor missed his fresh milk diet Mahone was a born fighter. What was impos sible to other men was only re creation to him. Portland can now boast of a population of 80,000. This is ac cording to the state census, just finished, which is claimed to be very accurate. Portland is getting to be a city of no mean proportions. Now Denver has a "Messiah" over whom many people are tem porarily losing the small amount of brains they possess. No kind or degree of absurdity or cranki ness is too foolish to lack numer ous followers. It now turns out that Governor Clark, of Arkansas, will do all in his power to prevent the Corbett Fitzsimmons fight from coming off at Ilot Springs. Truly the way af the prizefighter is getting to be pretty hard. Elisda P. Ferby, for eight years governor of the territory of Washington under President Grant and the first chief executive of the new state, died at Seattle early Monday morning. He was a pio neer of the state of Washington, and a citizen highly respected. The people of the United States are pretty hard drinkers. They drink a good deal of beer, more or loss whisky, a great deal of tea, but last year they imported a total of $00,130,717 worth of coffee. There is but one article that is higher, and that is sugar. We cannot raise coffee in this country, but it is a shame to import a hundred million dollars' worth of sugar every year.

Tho advances referred to, of courso, are advances from the deepest depression ot tho demo cratic ruin.

Friday morning's session was held in the M. E. chnrcb, South. Devotional servioe; singing by the choir; reading 28th Pea. and prayer by T. W. Ayers. In the absence ot Mrs, L. It. Beach, Mrs. Wm. Douglass lotroduoeJ the subject, "Best Methods of Teaching Primary Scholars." C. E. Freeland's paper on the same subjeot was very interesting. H. T. Bagley's paper on "Best Methods of Keeping Order," showed careful preparation and was very in structive. Extensive discussion on this subjeot brought oat many important points. The attendance at this session was small, but great interest and enthusiasm was manifest among the speakers and delegates. Friday evening's session was held in the M. E. ohurcb, South, with a large crowd in attendance. Meeting was opened by singing; read ing Ecol. 12 chap., by J. V. Shipley, and prayer by Elder Jenkins. T. W. Ayers' talk on "What May We Confidently Hope for as a Keward of Our Labors," would surely aot as a great stimulant for down-oast teaohers. In absence of Rev. Green, Mies Ida Fell read a very instructive paper on "Preparation of Teaohers." "The 8. 8. an Auxiliary to Good Citizenship," by M. D. L. French, was ably handled. An interesting disoussion followed. The president made a short talk on the merits of our state paper, The S. 8. Tidings. A collection of $0 36 was taken. The session was dismissed with bene diotion by Elder Jenkins. ' The final session was held Saturday morning in the Baptist church. Devotional services, singing by the ohoir and prayer by Kev. E. P.

Milk is a true Emulsion, arid as milk or cream is easier to digest and assimilate than butter, so is the milk or cream of Cod-liver Oil easier to digest and as similate than raw Oil. This i i vhy Scott's Emulsion is m uc h. more useful and effective than the natural Oil ; v;;iy it accomplishes so much in arresting waste and uunainc un trie roclv. T But it is much more than ordinary fat food. It has other constituents that have wonderful healing and strengthening power, and in addition we add the Hypo phosphites (or Phosphorus), another most important element in overcoming decreased vitality or loss of flesh. These are the reasons why Scott's Emulsion is benefiting to-day hundreds of thousands of consump tives and anaemic persons, as well as being a food and remedy for sickly, wasting children that is surprising both to physicians and parents.
