The lumber industry in Ore gon haa hardly started develop ment, millions of feet standing un touched. Portland is destined to be likewise honored frequently dur ing the next few years. Young man, whatever you do, 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 up something out of each dollar be takes in. Thsts the secret of success laid down by those who have attained succeis be fore us, and it is a wort ly rule to emulate. . The credit system more often proves a curse to the man who contracts the debt than to the one wno credits him. Credit is a blessing, properly treated, but a calamity when the least abubed. And now cornea "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 gress. 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 say whether there ia to be such legislation or not. What the con gress is to do should hardly be left .. i i e in tDe nanus 01 uue maw uo n. practically is in the bouse today. The game of chess itself is an ' allegory of life in rmnature. The world ia a globular chess board, and all the indiyiduals 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 pawn? or foot soldiers. As in chess, so it is in life, our position means our rise or downfall in the battle of life posi tion is all. Like a pawn, the most humble person, a he slowly moves o'er the squares of this great sub lunary chessboard, may in the end arrive at that station wherein be 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. Few of our reader realize that among the number writing for u there are fome who hare been contributors in the past and are today writing for soma prominent eastern periodicals and get a check tor their contribution. The Estkhi'RIik does net intend to let this feature of the paper decline in interest, but trust to keep it up to its present high standard. OFFICIAL STATKMHNT.

"I am a part of all that I have met." He is light. Whether we realise it or not, we are "a part of nil that we have met" during our life time. We inet and puss by thousands of people in a year, and rive them no thought. yet they have influenced us in some degree, and we have influenc ed them. We are judged ly our associates., and it is a Tightens wftv of judging, for we can not as sociate with the n(l' raff of earth and yet keep our minds on a high and noble plane. Did parents but more fully ap preciate this fuel, and choose more carefully their childrens,' ansmiiiites, there would ba fur les misery, fev er unhappy homes and a thousand tunes less disgrace from fallen sons and daughters. Mothers and fathers should bo on tho alert for the unseen loroes that influence their children; they should know the whereabouts and employment of their young sons and daughters, and he ready to guard them from contact with un desirable associates and acquaintances. Let parents realize that their chil dren are "a part of all that they have met," or may meet, 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 choose their own associates and amuse ments, and fall into habits that tend to evil and finally to disgrace, as so frequently happens. Realizing the mighty influence of the unseen forces, parents will not heedlessly allow their half ma tured sons to go hither and yon with a crowd of equally wild and reckless youths, to smoke, drink, blackguard and act the beast, re gardless of the everlasting f fleet of such behavior and character. The time is ripe for attention to these facts, and parents should be brought to a realization of them, More the mantle of dishonor falls on (he ,hmiMr 'f promWni sou or d-ul.ter. and the hiful parenta see their plana and hope, ahalter.d by the blow of dierace.
