TH U ISD AY, AUGUST A IMA The double column editorial find hits a newspaper occasion ally but it is to the credit o f our Oregon exchanges that most o f them drop the tad business in a short time and return to the fold. The fight between Harriman and Hill is a battle o f giants tor supremacy in railroad building in the Northwest. It is a relief to the people ol Oregon to see Hill jabbing Harriman in the slats and to note that the tender spots have at last been reached. NAME YOUR FARM HOME. . Some people get the idea that a distinctive name given to a couutry home is evidence of the fact that the owner is “ stuck up,” but this is a very narrow, as well as a very uncharitable view to take o f it. Any farmer who keeps his buildings painted up, his fences in order and fence rows clear o f weeds and under growth, and everything about the place in such condition that the home and farm has the ap pearance ol thrift and well di rected energy put forth by the owner, is not only entitled to much credit, but he gets a degree o f pleasure and satisfaction out ot it that fully repays him for all his extra work. The fact that he names his farm “ The Oaks,” TH E GOOD OLD QUAKER Once said to his boy, “Nathan, it is not what thee reads that makes thee smart; it is not what thee eats that makes thee fat; nor what thee earns that makes thee rich, but what thee SAVES/' This saving habit may be acquired through the steady use of a savings account in our bank. TH E FIRST N A T L BANK Newberg, Oregon. Ex-Governor Geer is to become the editor ot the Pendleton Trib une so it is announced. Geer is a fluent writer and we shall be glad to see him in the harness again. When he was writing for the Salem Statesman he made the Tiest editorial page that paper has ever had and the Statesman people evidently care very little for the standing o f the paper, else they would not have turned him down. It is said however, that factional politics in which “ corn meal Ike” figured promi nently was back o f it. Henry E. Reed, o f Portland, has been elected director o f exploi tation for the Alaska-Yukon-Pa cific Exposition, which is to be held in Seattle, in 1909 and has entered into a contract for three years service. Seattle people know a good thing when they see it even if it does come from Portland. Mr. Reed achieved great success in his work as man ager o f the publicity department o f the Lewis and Clark fair and his experience will be worth much to Seattle. A better choice coaid hardly have been made. The Seattle Exposition is to open June 15,1909, and continue four months. COME AND SEE T . B. CUMMINGS A CO M PAN Y - ARE ABLE TO FURNISH YOUR HOME COMPLETELY The West Side Enterprise in a tw o column editorial on “ Ex- Governor Geer” gives some in side political history, relative to the causes that led up to the de feat o f Geer, both for a second term tor governor and for United States senator after he had been endorsed by the people. It makes very interesting reading and will cause certain fellows to sit up and take notice. It is encouraging to the manu facturing interests o f Oregon to note that a woolen mill located at Union has recently received an ofder from Willesley College, Willesley, Massachuesetts, for a shipment o f high grade blankets. T w o years ago the same insti tution bought tw o hundred pairs o f blankets o f the same firm and this second order indicates that the first was satisfactory. The progress seems slow sometimes but Oregon is gradually coming to the front as a manufacturing state. Vehicle and Implement line at A. R. Moomaw A Son's, as cheap or cheaper* than you can in Portland? Watch . I. A. Manning who has been editor and manager ot the Salem Statesman during the past year has severed his connection with the paper and engaged in business in Portland. Ike is a pretty good fellow but he don’t shine at his best as editor o f a daily paper. In looking over the list ot teachers who have recently tak en the examination in the differ ent counties the very small per cent ot names o f male teachers is noticable. The, low wages of fered for teachers and the de mand for active yonng men in various avenues o f business at better wages has resulted in leav ing the field almost entirely to women, except where a principal is demanded at better wages than is paid for teachers in the lower grades. o‘ SAVE THE FREIGHT No premium checks after September 1.

The following appeared in the Martinsville, Ind., Democrat and contains a whole lot o f truth: Wanted — Competent girl or middle aged woman tor house work w ho will stay in at night. Permanent position to nght party.—Advt in Reporter. The above advertisement ex- presses not only an individual but a general want—a want felt in local circles not only, bnt everywhere and constantly. The girl or woman that stays in at night is a growing and varied want. She is wanted in the household as a maid o f work. She is wanted as a companion. She is wanted as a friend, guide, mentor, critic, an aide-de-camp in the home, a lady-superior to the growing girls, and untitled empress in the circles ot society, a wife and the mother o f men. The girl that stays in at night does something toward fitting herself for the best work in the sphere to which kind nature has assigned her. She holds herselt aloof from the allurements that lurk in the mellow moonlight; has no appreciation for the giddy nothings that are voiced under the garnish lights o f the late street; guards her womanliness from the temptations and the dangers that lurk in dark Cor ners or under V the ... dense umbra ot the wings o f night. The Etonian that stays in at night preserves longest the fresh beauty o f nature and cosmetics and paints are as a rule needless. She preserves her mind pjire and clean from the moral as well as the physical taints that come, under the dark ness and solitude o f night. The girl that stays in at night wakes with the lark and finds her limbs rested, her muscles supple, her mind free from taint, and her heart buoyant, like the thistle down floating in the sweet air of the morning, and thus fortified against the daily work and the daily trials that come to all— to her, less than to her sister o f the night owl variety, because she starts the day with a safer cap ital o f nerve force and physical ability.
