The fire caused a terrible hole in that city, and re lief from different quarters has been gladly received, Portland alone sending $1400, It Is a very bad policy for a city the size of Goldendale to only be protected 1v a hook and ladder apparatus. It is economy in the long run to have the very best fire out fit a city can afford, for when it docs need lire engines and water it often needs them most fearfully had, and they are oten wortl thousands of dollars a minute.

Among the good things arranged for the evening exercises at the Mate v. C. T. L. convention, was the program of llie"YV" j on Friday evening. I'ei.flh-toii, Salem, , Newhcrg, Astoria, Albany and Kugcnc were represented on the program. Two papers were read, one wrnttMi by .Mm Coon of I'cndlctwn "Our White Ribbon" and clearly did kIio define the uses and abuses of this little badge. She urged the White Ribbon women to wear this little emblem of purity, as its presence was a constant protest agaiiiKt, and rebuke to crime. Miss Miller, of Albany, read a paper, the subject of which, was the na tional text of our young wo.v.cn "That our daughters be ascorner-sloncs, polished after the similitude of a palace." The duties and opiortunitieK of our young women were pointed out with a ditiuct. ness, net to be misunderstood, and a more consecrated service no graciously and tenderly insisted upon, as to make a deep impression on her hearers. Recitations and readings were beauti fully rendered. Solos and quartettes brought down a storm of applause; one quartette, composed of the Dorris sisters of Eugene. wa particularly fine. The program, as a whole, was an honor to the Voung Women's Christian Tem perance Unions of Oregon. P.ESOl.tTIONS. The V. C. T U , of Oregon, at its sixth annua! meeting, recognizes the responsi bility that rests on the Christian woman hood of Oregon, and the opportunities af forded us by this woman's age, reaflirm the principles in general, enunciated by the National Woman's Christian Temper ance Union, and we claim as our special work the Gospel Temperance of our Lord Jesus Chirst ; the design and practical re sult of which is a sound mind in a sound body ; the golden rule being our standard of duty. In the large vote cast In Novem ber for Constitution Prohibition, upproach- Inga majority of the honest electors of our State, the Woman's Christian Temperance Union have, cause for profound gratitude, and we do therefore thank God and take courage. We tender thanks to the friends in other States who respnnded to our appeal during the campaign for financial assistance. We would express our appreciation of the efforts of the ministers of Christ who gave their time and work during the campaign ; whom we recognize as "our pastors," and with whom we are co-laborers in Gad's work. Convinced that license is a bulwark of the saloon wc pledge our active opnosl tion to the svstem high or low; our best efforts will be used to develope prohibi tion sentiment until it becomes the es tablished policy of the state and nation. statistics show that there are over 7000 illiterates in Oregon, and as Christian women we believe an Intelligent citizei ship is a necessity of the age, therefore it is resolved that our state othcers be direct cd to petition the next legislature for a compulsory education law. The influences of older criminals in our state's prison on youthful convicts is acknowledged to be most painful in char acter; it is therefore the dnty of the state to establish a reform school where youth starting on a career of crime may be con fined apart from the most hardened crim inals, and where reform measures will have better prospects of a successful trial, it is resolved that wc petition the legisla ture, at its next session, to establish such an institution; and that effective measures be adopted to secure the desired result. Local superintendents arc urged to make full reports of their work to county super intendents, county superintendents to dis trict superintendents, and they to state superintendents. The state Union offers a banner to the district that gains the largest per cent, of increase in membership during the year, to be presented at the next annual conven tion. As the Pacific Express is our state organ and the means of communication between our ofiiccrs and members, we give it our hearty co-operation and support, and we recommend the ladies of the W. C. T. U., wdo have means to invest, to take Rtock, in the same. We express our appreciation of nnd grat itude for the services of our corresponding secretary. We tender our hearty thanks to the cit feens of Eugene City for the generous hos pitality accorded us; to the pastor and trus tees of the M. K. church for the use of their house of worship; to the Glee club for the most excellent music rendered dur ing our evening sessions; to Dr. Kummcr, of Portland, for his able adress; and to the railroads granting us reduced rates.
