Eugene Guard HAfURDAY THE SYNOD. Cumberland I’resbi lerians in Lx- ecutive Session. Ot.'TOBER « IS THIS PROSPERITY? The o|w*ning of the Cumberland Presbyterian synod occurred la«r even ing at the church in this city. Rev B F Totten, of Inavale, Oregon, the re tiring moderator, preached the sermon which was spoken of as an able effort. The program and tbe remainder of the sessions is as follows: Salem hiikp^ndeut. j Republican friends have b-en I wasting about prosperity under McKinley’s administration. V e will give one example which ought to be sufficient t> convince any candid minded man in Ore gon, or elsewhere, that McKinley prosperity is not real; that under tbe blighting influence of a Re publican financial system the value of property ot all kinds has de predated to a fearful extent while ttxee have increased. Eleven years ago the assessed valuation of all property in Mult nomah county was $61,000,000. We want to state just now so that tbe statement can be taken into consideration that the Marquam building, tbe Portland hotel, the Oregonian building, tbe Chamber of Commerce, Olds <fc King’s and Lipman & Wolfs storee, the Union depot and many other of Portland’s finest aud most costly buildings bad not been built al the time of this valuation .of $61,000,- 000 was made. Keep these figures in mind. In 1889 the assessment as before stated was $61,000,000. To this amount at the lowest cal culation, $8,000,000 should be added for the magnificent buildings enumerated as not being in exist ence at tbe time of the asseHsmeut of $61,000,000. But leaving the $8,000,000 which is probably halt what the improvements have cost Bines 1889, let us see what the present assessment of all property in Multnomah county amounts to. Reader, would you believe it? Just $31,000,000, in round numbers. A shrinkage of 50 per cent in the value of Multnomah -jounty prop erty during 11 years, under the operation of a Republican “sound money” system of finauce. Reader, doesn’t this tell the tale? Isn’t our “prosperity,” a delusion and a snare? Stop and reason on this matter. We have given you tbe figures, You ought to be able to oome to a conclusion. Now, still another point, which we do not wish to escape the attention of the reader in this connection. We are reliably informed that the great buildings of Portland built since 1899 are MORTGAGED FOR MORE than they could POSSIBLY 11E SOLD FOR, and that no one of the buildings enumerated above, but has bonds out for all it is worth. This is “prosperity” then right under the Oregonian’s nose But we cannot expect it to publish these facts since it is employed to howl for “proeperity." The Ore gonian building has a receiver, who as agent for a big bonding trusts, collects all rent revenue to pay interest on what the building owes. Thus the roseate editorials wbioh tell of “great prosperity” are written in Harvey tioott’e mort gaged tower, and the Oregonian people are not even allowed to col • loot their own rents. The Republican campaign han beoerne * negative proposition. The candidate» and leaders have become stolid agnostics. The rank and file is hiding behind breast works of shifting sand. Mr Hanna says: “There are no trusts.” Mr McKinley saye: “There is no suob thing as imperialism.” Mr Roosevelt says: “1 am not afraid of militarism, liecauee there Isn’t any ‘militarism.’" Mr Gage says: “There isn’t any gold standard, therefore the gold standard must not be attacked.” Chorus of Republican spellbind ers: “NOW YOU SEE AND NOW YOU DON’T.” ______ MORNING SESSION. 9:00, Devotion. 9.30, Business Session. Headache may be called a woman’s ailment. Some men suffer from it. But almost all women have to endure its pain with each recurring month. This fact points at once to the intimate relation between the health of the delicate womanly organs, and the general health of the whole bo<ly. Dr. Pierce’s Favor ite Prescription banishes headache by banishing its cause. It cures the dis eases which irritate the delicate womanly organs, fret the nerves and waste the strength. It increases the vitality and builds up the nervous system. "Favorite Prescription” contains no opium, cocaine or other narcotic. EVENING SESSION.

National Commercial and Indus bUNDAY, OCTOBER 7. trial League, a McKinley campaign organization, with headquarters in New York, has, like his master, Hanna, read the hsndwriting on the wall “sounded a note of alarm” which gives no comfort to llanua henchmen. At a meeting of the League held in New York last Wednesday, President Corey made some start- ling statements which were re* ported by the Times, an anti- Bryan newspaper: “If I were to believe the reports which I have lately received from our leagues in the various states,” he said, “1 should believe that we were already defeated. The signs of defeat are in much greater evi dence now than they were when Harrison was defeated in 1892, and I will let you into the secret why we are in such danger. It is lie cause the business men are apa thetic; because they don’t realize the necessity of contributing money to the campaign. “When Mr Hanna goes down on Wail street and tells the great financiers ot New York what 1 am telling you they say to him: ’Why, Mr Hanna, you are crazy.’ They are resting under a false sense of security. 1 have statistics right here with me now—reliable statis tics—which Bhow that if the elec tion were held in Illinois tomorrow Illinois would go Democratic.” MORNING SESSION. 10KX), Bunday school. 11:00, Hermon, by Moderator. 12:00, Communion EVENING SESSION. 7:30, Y PBCE rally, led by Rev Geo W Fender, of .McMinnville.

After a hard fought legal battle be tween A C Hough, as administrator of the estate of Enoch M ood , deceased, and the Grants Pass New Water, Light A Power Co, a verdict was brought in by tbejury Saturday of 12500 for tbe plaintiff The factsot the case are familiar with most of our readers. On October 2, last year, Enoch Moon was repairing slsctrlc light wires on Fifth street in the rear of the old Palace hotel site, when the electric current was turned on at the power house, M<x>n receiving the full force of the ¿shock, killing him instantly and knocking him from the pols on which ho was working. The evidence was brought to show that the oom pan y, through its inana- gsr,G I Brown, was negligent In not using a more safe method of commu nication to the [tower house. It will be remembered that Mr Brown sent a man down to notify the engineer not to turn oil the power hut the mnwen- <er was obliged to make a purchase on the way and arrived at the power bouse after tbe current had been turned on. The csmpaay was represented by its attorney, R E Moody, of Portland, and A H Ha-nmoud, of Medford. Plaintin A C Hough, was assisted by H D Notion. Will Bet >5.000 Even on Bryan. O hkki . im , O .

Conservative oper ators estimate that not to exceed 5100 bales have l>eeu sold,aside from those which were contracted for prior to picking time. Of the contract hops there are about 25,000 bales.
