G overnor P atterso n , in his a«i-
U .ss at Chicago last S ttu rd a y ,
■ aid iu p art: “Consider the out-
Blinding advantages Oregon has to
o l e r the prospective settler. We
h iv e the finest tim ber in the in
lion. We have, in abundance, the
w iter power which the industry of
t .morrow wjll dem and Our m in
eral resources are p ractically un-
t -uched. Of eighteen m illion po
ten tial acree of farm land, less
t ian five m illion are under in te n
sive cultivation. We have a beau
tiful country, an exceptionally
pleasan t clim ate, and a land of
unsurpassed fertility, with all the
rn iUiplied resources through which
great com m onw ealths are built up.
O pportunity still wails at the end
of the Oregon T rail for those who
feel the urge which has ever im-
le lle d th e hardy, the resourceful,
a n l the am bitious, to push on into
the W est.’’
In a recent issue of his syndicat
ed colum n, “ Today,’’ A rth u r Brit-
b me refutes George Bernard Shaw,
the English socialist, when he says
th a t accum ulated money ia the root
of all evil.
B risbane replied th a t it is ac
cum ulated money th a t has harness
ed Niagara Falls, built the P a n a
ma Canal, and has placed autom o
bile production on a q u antity basis
th a t has given the A m eiiosn people
24,000,000 inexpensive motor cars.
G reat accum ulations of cap ital,
like g reat accum ulations of water
going downhill, represeut power.
E lim inate accum ulated capital and
you would elim in ate possibilities
of higher civilization.
He says the people have brains
enough to watch and control ac
cum ulated capital and take ad v a n t
age of the benefits conferred by it,
quoting these figures to prove that
the country is prosperous; In May,
corporations in which millions of
employes are stockholders, declared
dividends of $8 17 900,405, and in
Ju n e dividends will total »500,(XX\
0J0.
The first of Ju n e, th e total nunt-
b r of persons employed by all Dr-
tra it motor car factories was 35V,.
073, highest on record —real pros
perity.

their aseeeasments may be undu illy

ItE H K M H E lt when the Oral piano
■ seal buggy came Into our neigh
borhood. It was something classy,
and the boy that bad it was the envy
of Hie community. It wasn't every
one who could afford a buggy, and we
who bad been contented to take our
sweethearts to singing school and ex
hibitions and the Fourth of July cel
ebration in a farm wagon were of
the opinion that bugglea would never
become common. They cost too much
io the first place, and then after you
got one It required a good deal of
care to keep it in shape, and a weath
er proof shed to keep it In, but It
wasn't five years until buggies were
us common as motor cars are today
Xo respectable gallant In my commu
nily was without a buggy o f his own
—and a buggy whip w ith a brlght-col
ored ribbon on It.
The bicycle came along next, and
at first, o f course, only the affluent
and the sportsmen could hope to pos
scss one. I f you "remember way
buck" you w ill recall that the first
bicycles were way up I d the air. and
It was like fu llin g out of the third
story window to be thrown from one,
but they lowered them presently. I
paid one hundred and fifty dollars for
my first one, and then they hegaD to
tumble In price, and everybody in
town, from children In the first grade
to the Baptist m inister, who wore a
silk tie as he rode about among Ills
parishioners, bestrode a bicycle. Ev
cry tyro bud made a "century." which
meant he had ridden a hundred miles
or more in a day, and which, broadly
speaking was equivalent at the pres
eat day of making a bolt In one or
at least two.

When B illy Slmpaon brought the
first "horteleas carriage" to town, the

that we bad seen could come w lth lo a

thing could go fifteen miles an boor,
if It could go one. I t v a t a good
while before anyone else In town es
sayed to duplicate B illy's venlure.
I'he machine would never be very
practical, we all prophesied, nor very
common.
I saw In the city papers the day a ft
er Labor day that h a lf a m illion cars
passed along Michigan aveDue during
twenty four hours, and at many points
tiling thoroughfares five thousand cars
passed every hour. Everyone now.
from the office boy to the president,

Tliey have begun the manufacture
of airplanes near the town where I
used to live. "For the common

tific models w ill be followed Prices

The success of the McCormick-Deering
grain binder is the result of remarkable
improvements in grain binder construc
tion, so essential and important to you.
This binder handles light
and heavy grains equally
well without waste and with
no clogging of elevator.
The reel w ill not whip or
sag and results are a clean,
even cut the full length.
The knotter is simple in
construction and does a bet
ter job of tying over a long
term of years.
