Yes, it true there is lots of rain in Oregon, but look at the crops produced. The man who lives in any community without working for its interest is riding someone else’s horse. “ Single Tax” the bugaboo of the investor and the man who “ does things” has been over­ whelmingly defeated and rele­ gated to the archives of ancient history, so far as Oregon is con­ cerned. The development of the state as a whole should now proceed u n c h e c k e d and un­ hampered. The upbuilding of great industrial enterprises will be but a matter of time, and limited time at that. The eyes of the capitalists have long been turned toward Oregon, as the one state on the Pacific slope wherein opportunity awaits, and that these capitalists propose to ■ pour wealth into the state, and ffiColary Public D e m o c r a t s should tender “ Teddy” a congratulatory mes­ sage for his aid in the president­ ial victory.— Hood River Glacier. The idea of patronizing our neighbor will be brought to the fore on November 21, which has been proclaimed “ Made in Ore­ gon Day” by Governor West, and officially decreed a holiday, The Oregon Manufacturers’ as­ sociation will meet in Portland on that date, and Portland busi­ ness houses will decorate and ar­ range window displays for the proper exposition of “ made in Oregon” goods and “ grown in Oregon” products. The idea is to bring before the people of the state the necessity o f patroniz­ ing themselves, and to pre /ail upon them to use “ made in Ore­ gon” goods and eat “ Oregon grown” foods. SUCCESSFUL COOPERATION Saturday, in Forest Grove, the first session of the Washington County Teachers’ association, for the present school period, was held in the Central school build­ ing. The work undertaken was o f such a nature as to materially assist the county teachers in the performance o f their duties, and the furtherance o f education throughout the county. At these gatherings, which are of untold benefit, both to teacher and pu­ pil, ideas are exchanged, pro­ grams mapped out, and the gen­ eral work o f teaching the young gone into in a thorough ami practical manner. The meetings o f the association should In* at­ tended by every teacher in the county, and the ideas secured put to practical use in the every­ day work. This county has al­ ways had an association, but the present organization is expected to excell in every way the efforts Of the past, and to leave behind Treatment by Special Appoint* ment Only W .
