AN INDEPENDENT PAPER.
I'RIIfAV, SEPTEMBER 21
. A Promising Outlook
The purchase of Mujor Forrest's
One ranch on the MoKonzie by a
young Eastern capitalist shows how
attention Is being centred upon this
part of Western Oregon. A close
friend and associate of the pu-chaser
is auother wealthy young Culcagou,
Rlloy, who owns 10,000 acres of line
Unit er adjoining tbe Forrest ranch.
Buub young men, possessed of means
and energy, will do much toward
brluglug tbe Willumette valley to the
attention of financiers who are look
ing Westward for prolltable Invest
ments, and constantly increasing out
side holdings of timber, mines and
agricultural lands In Laue ' county
will bear good fruit within the next
few years.
Mr. Fitzhenry tolls the UuurJ Unit
he will devoto his enorgios to the do
velopmont of the country through
electrio road building, even if the
company now operating here fails to
meet expectations lu that direction.
And therein lies a hope aud promise
that Is assuring to tbe pooplo of Eu
gene and adjacent territory, f tho
Willamette Valley Co., now that they
have boon granted the deslrod fran
chises, should not move with celerity
to make good their pledges of railway
construction, it will be an easy mat
ter for our oummeroliil jorKanlzutlonB
to secure a system of electrio roads
backed by Independent Hnanoiei's.
The latent resources aro hero to be
devoloned, aud electric roads built
throughout tbe Willamette valley,
rescuing- to the timber and mining
districts, will be certain dividend
payers. Therefore no corporation
should bo allowed to Bpcculuto with
the valuablo franchise granted thorn,
and there should be no time exten
sions granted to tbe Wlllamotte Val
ley Co.
The future of the Willamette valley
is too big to await the pleasure or
convenience of auy coloiie of Uniin
clem.
Important Meeting
The Pacific Northwest convention
of commercial clubs will be held In
Spokane two days next week, Tues
day and Wednesday, Septembet 25
and 20, during the Spokane Inter
state fair, which opoue September il,
oontluulng until October 0.
From reports sent out by the pro
motors It Is couoluded that no con
vention ever held In tho Pacific
Northwest, not even excepting the
vory important meeting of the Irrlgr-
tlou Congress, recently In sesslou In
Boise, is of groat or value than Is this
convention. The shrewdest business
men of this part of the Pact do North
west are planning the program aud
prnposo a movement which will silver
tine the four states lu a way that
will rival the greatest advertising
schemes which the Canadian govern
ment and the Canadian Paoltlc rail
way have been using to draw the peo
pie of tbe United States Into the Al
berta onuntry. Already many dele
gates are promised for tbe oouven
tioo, assuring the important meet
ing desired.
It is Important that every commer
cial body send delegates to this con
vention and notify R. O. Kobrabaou
r, secretary, at Spokane, of the
delegate, as fast as they are chosen.
Railroad officials are not only giving j
unusual rates the benefit oi mis
convention, but many of the officials
are writing personal letters, endors-1
ing the importance of the movement
and promising to be preseut.
Houk Kong Is just now occupying
the central phwe in the newspapers
becautw of the great typhoon that
swept the city, carrying death aud
destruction with it. Some informa
tion concerning this Importiut com
mercial city is, therefore, of inter
est. Hong Kong is on an island sit
uated In tho China Sea off the coast
of China, from which it is separated
by a uariow strait. It was yielded
to Great Britain by a treaty In 1842.
Tbe roadstead bus a well-protected
anchorage. Victoria, the capital (it
self commonly called Hong Kong), is
situated on a magnificent bay of tbe
same name, setting up into the north
side of the inland Hong Kong is a
great centre of the foreign trade of
China.. Total exports are roughly
estimated at 1 Si, 000, 1)00 and imports
at 1 100, 000, (XX). As a British oalony
on Chinese soil it is tbe most import
ant in its political aud defensive posi
tion, and is tbe headquarters of the
military, naval and mercantile estab
lishments. The population of the
city of Hong Kong is about 275,000.
McMlnnvlllo is to have something
new In tho fair line. The Reporter
says: "The bright boys and girls In
all parts of the county bio busily en
gaged In preparing tbelr exhibits for
tbe school children's fair, to be held
September 25 to 28. It is safe to pre
dict that the display made by those
young people will be a pleasant sur
prise to every visitor attending the
fuir. Hundreds of little girls have
prepared glasses of jolly and cans of
fruit put up with the utmost cere and
with whioh they hope to land some of
the flue pronilums offered. It Ib es
timuted that 600 girls are now "bak
lug the family broad" in or dor that
their skill may bring them the $30
prize olfeied for the best bread ex
hiblt."
"Dry Farming Payz," remarks the
Pendleton East Oiogoulan. ibe con
clusion Is no doubt oorreot, but the
phonetic spoiling makes it look strange

1IY condemn the beef
MILLIONAIRE is guilty of some crime of equal hiu
eousness. T?nt thn fnnlr rlops not lie with the millionaire. The
present social system forced his crimes upon him. He is in business ,
as a millionaire, and the spirit of the times dictates that be shall suc
ceed. If there is competition he is COMPELLED to grind the
competition down. It is not the fault of the millionaire. IT IS
THE FAULT OF THE SYSTEM.
A business which affects the people's welfare Bhould not be in the
hands of private individuals, but in the hands of the public. The
state or tho municipality, not syndicates RUXXINO FOR PROFIT, .
should control the people's food supply. i
You may have as much legislation and appoint as many inspectors
as you like, but tho same state of things will go on as long as an in
dustry is a question of private and not PUBLIC profit
In spito of everything President Roosevelt can do, the only safe
prophecy is that at the end of a few years a number of the beef in
spectors will be ablo to retire on ample fortunes. Then perhaps
there will be another outcry and ANOTHER SET OF INSPECT
ORS will bo given an opportunity of amassing wealth.
YOU CANNOT CONTROL TRU8TS NOR MAKE THEM HONEST.
IF YOU WANT TO BE RID OF THE EVIL THEY DO THE ONLV
COURSE IS TO WIPE THE TRUSTS OUT ALTOGETHER.
AN ANCIENT PROVISION CHEST.
During a recent excavation in Egypt a wonderful old provision chest wc.i
found in a tomb. It Is made of palm, wood and 1b lined with papyrus. There
arj openings for ventilation and a tray with papyrus flaps. From inscriptions
on the chest li Is believed to date from the eighteenth dynasty, at least 8.000
years ago. ,
H poem for Coday
THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH
By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
ALONG with his pure fancy Longfellow possessed a peculiarly hnppy
facility in selecting uncommon aspects of common themes. Most of
these themes he embellished by his fancy with such a wealth of tender
anil beautiful suyliura that In very civilised land his verses have be
come household favorites, permeating tho lives of rising generations.
Me who has written verses that are committed to heart by millions
for the gladdening of their lives must have written much thut Is true
poetry. ProfesBor Eric Robertson.
XPER a spreading chestnut tree
u
The village smllhy stands;
The smith a mighty man is he
With largo and sinewy
hands.
And tho muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as Iron bands.
His hair Is crisp and black and long;
Vila face Is like the tan:
His brow is wet with honest sweat;
Ho earns whato'er Jie can
And looks the wholo world In the face.
For he owes not any man.
Week in. week out, from morn till
nlsht.
You can hear his bellows blow: ,
You can hear him swing his heavy
sli'diio
Wlth measured beat and slow,
Like a sexton ringing the village bell
When the evening sun Is low.
And children coming home from school
Look In at the open door:
They love to see the tlamlng forge
And hear the bellows roar
And cute the burning sparks that fly
Like chalT from a threshing floor.

He hears the parson pray and preach; f

It sounds to him like her mother's

Ho m'cds must think of her once more
How l;i the grave she lies
And with his ltard, rough hand he

A tear out of his eyes.

Each evening sees Its close;
Something attempted, something done,
