Portland has the promt distinc tion of leading the world in the ex portation of lumber during the past six months. The boast is a worthy one. The lumber industry in Ore gon has hardly started deyelop ment, millions of feet standing un tmirhed. Portland is destined to be likewise honored frequently dur ing the next few years. Younsr man. whatever you do. Cf remember this: Keep your ex penses well within your means. It matters not so much how much a man may make as it does that he is able to lay no something out of eath dollar he takes in. That the secret of success laid down by those who have attained succens be fore us, and it is a wort.iy rule to emulate. The credit system more often proves a curse to the man who contracts the debt than to the Ane wno credits him. Credit is a blessing, properly treated, but calamity when the least abused. And now comes "Uncle Joe" Cannon, possibly the next speaker of the house of representatives, with an interview saying that he will not allow any financial legis lation at the next session of con gresa. Financial legislation is not necessary, and tampering with our present system right now would mean uneasiness in the business world, and posdibly bring on a panic. But the congress should whether there is to be such legislation or not. What the con gresa is to do should hardly be left in the hands of one man as it practically is in the house today. The game of chess itself is an allegory of life in minature. The world is a globular chesB board, and all the individuals merely fig ures which destiny moves at her will. In the turning lathe of na ture some are fashioned into kings and " queens, others into bishops and knights, with strong castles, but by far the majority of us come into the world as pawns or foot soldiers. . As in chess, so it is in life, our position means our rise or downfall iu the battle of life posi tion is all. Like a pawn, the most humble person, an he slowly moves o'er the squares of this great sub lunary chessboard, may in the end arrive at that station wherein he assumes even a power greater than his own king. There is not a paper in the state, we care not where you go, that has a force of correspondents equal to that of the Enterprise. This is one feature of our columns that we pride ourselves upon more than any other.

The Unseen Force. Uueua Vista Special. Tennyson says, "I am a part of all that I have met." He is light. Whether we realize it or not, we are "a part of all that we have met" during onr life time. We meet and pass by thousands of people in a year, and ijive them no thought, yet they have influenced us in some degreV, and we have Influenc ed them. We are judged by our associates., and it is a rlghtK0B way of judging, for we can not as sociate with the riff raff of earth and yet keep our minds on a high and noble plane. Did parents but more fully ap preciate this fact, and choose more carefully thair childrens' associates, there would be far lead misery, few er unhappy homes and a thousand times less disgrace from fallen sons and daughters. Mothers and fathers should be on tbe alert for the unseen forces that influence their children; they should know the whereabouts and employment of their young sons and daughters, and be ready to guard them from contact with un desirable associates and acquaint ances. Let parents realize that their chil dren are "a part of all that they have met," or may meft, and in that knowledge will be greater pro tection for their children. Then girls of twelve, fifteen, and even seventeen will not be turned loose to go and come at will; to chbose their own associates and amuse ments, and fall into habits that tend to evil and finally to disgrace, as eo frequently happens. Realizing the mighty influence of the unseen forces, parents will not heedlessly allow their half-matured sons to go hither and yon with crowd of equally wild and reckless youths, to smoke, drink, blackguard and act tbe beast, re gardless of the everlasting effect of such behavior and character. , Tbe time is ripe for attention to these facts, and parents should be brought to a, realization of them, before the mantle of dishonor falls on the hhouhler of the promising on or daughter, and the hopeful parent see theii plain and hopes khalter.d by the Wow of di-graoe.
