1 u i-i t ii riiiiHM-ting the large atti'iid
a mo at aale: that the time lias come
ill the country when page of advrr-
tiing in town puT get the rexull
which city paH'ra have !eeii getting
for many year. Time was when it
was thought you t-otililn t In-neve
what von re:l in the ada. The mer
chant who will atoop to miMreprtent
n hi advertuing in tin day is court-
ng a premature end. A glance at the
country paicr from all part of the
state tdiowt this to U true, and a viit
to the towns of a Mate disclose many
phenomenal rise in the industrial
orld of men who appreciate tlio worth
of their home papers and who are not
afraid to use them. They have made
it more through the reliability of their
idvertiaing than through any other
virtue. Consistency enters into the
matter. The merchant who runs a
pago now and then cannot eiect to
get the steady (low of custom that the
merchant gets who runs a half page
all the time. And at the came time
the steady advertiser pays little more
for his publicity than the man doe
who runs a page now and then and
gets out a lot of hills. What is paid
for the page and the bills would carry
the other merchant's ad for about two
months. It is because he contracts his
space at the lowest rate and does noth
ing but newspaper advertising, and in
stead of mailing out hills he applies it
all to the one end. Newspaper adver
tising is the best there is positively
the best. The politician does his
through the newspapers because it is
dignified, and dignified advertising is
what pays the merchant.
The Century Clnb, a commercial
organization, ia one of the most im
portant features which has beea com
pleted in Indepenuence, both irom a
commercial and social standpoint
It starts out under splendid auspices,
having as it does a membership cho
sen from the city's most select popula
tion, including prospective member
ship under consideration by the board
of directors at this time. The de
mand for such an organization has
been felt for years past, and it re
mained for a few brave men to shoul
der the burden and push the organiza
tion. With this body in organization
Independence is placed immediately
in position to forge ahead, catching
step wiih the many other towns of
Oregon which are awakening to the
advantage of securing the fruits of
homeseekers who will settle on the
Pacific coast in the next few years.
The club has comfortable quarters
in the brick building in which the
creamery is located and their rooms
are fitted with nice furniture, with ev
ery provision for the comfort of the
members.

The work of his Satanic majesty
has never in the history of the world
been so popular that society cared to
see it depicted in picture or play and
the drama. "The Devil," which is
now being played all over the United
states, must of necessity run a short
season of popularity. A class of fic
lion which has been written portray
ing the sensational and playing upon
the passions of humanity, discovering
the evil works of misguided emotions,
can iever be popular with society.
The picture is true to life: too true;
the very fact of which will prove the
downfall of its attempt. The drama,
however, is the sensation of the hour
in all the cities of the country, and
the foregoing is but a prediction of its
final reception. It presents that side
of human sociology to which modest
society does but cover its eyes; to be
hold which is but to defame the high
er moral elements of our moral fibre.
