The DesChutes Irrigation and Power company will likely be shorn of softie of its power after these geutlemen make their re port. The company, in connection with the state laud board, has l»een accused of fraudulent intentions iu raising the company’s lien against the laud, from 110 to $25, and if the accusation is true it is said that it would mean a million dollar steal.

If you think your friend would be interested in knowing more about Oregon and might eveutually become a valuable citi zen, sénd his name and address to the general passenger agent of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co and a copy of this special edition, with a complete summary of the several subjects treated, carefully indexed, will be mailed to him p: • • ptly. In this manner you may be the means not only of doing your friend a good turn, but of helping to stimulate the growth and prosperity of Oregon. Do n’t forget that commencing September 1st,and continuing daily for two months, tickets will be en sale at nearly every railroad station in the east, to all points in Oregon, and the Northwest, at what has come to be popularly known as Colonist Rates. These rates are the chea|>est general longdistance rates ever established, and enable one to reach Oregon from any part of the United States at but a trifle more than one cent a mile. They are the greatest incentive to colon iiatin and ,>rogrese¡ve home building of any known agency. And if the restless, dissatisfied resident of the east is made to know before-hand the advantages he can enjoy here, the problem is solved, and the star of empire will continuo to move steadily westward. • Now is the time to spread the We are going to Rhow the largest and beat assorted stock of Dress Goods and Fancy Dry Goods that has ever been shown iu the county. or 3 .2 5 d e n t to a p o s itio n as soon os c o m p e te n t.

On April 29 last, The Oregonian published a special industrial edi* tion, devoted exclusively to the ex ploitation of Oregon. It probably contained more special and miscel laneous information about Oregon than any one publication that has ever been issued. It is peculiarly useful and valuable to the home- seeker, because it givesThe latest and post reliable information about so many different subjects that the homeseekris naturally interested in. Almost every department of indus try is specialized, and both descrip tive and statistical information of a highly valuable character is given extensively and in entertaining form. TENTH A N D • C l.' fo r c o m b i n e d h a r v e s t e r s 1 2 .5 0 Referring to the scarcity of teach ers in Oregon a dispatch from Eu- gane says: 56 school teachers took the county examination here this weekand that number will not any* where near supply the vacancies in Lane county. What makes the matter more serious is the fact that the material is very poor, and that many of those wl o will barely creep through are scarcely fit to teach auy sort of a school. The ex aminers fouud many of the papers indicative of the greatest ignorance.. For instance, one answer to a ques tion was, “The Hagne conference fined the Staudard Oil company.” Most of the applicants were young girls, and altogether never was there a worse number of would-be pedagogues in the county taking examinations.
