Improvement of Willamette. The engineers' department is making their recommendations to the depart ment at Washington D. C. state that $10,000 is needed for the improvement of the Willamette river at Albany. This is urged and no doubt the work of building the revetment of the opposite side of the river in Benton county will soon be in full swing. This need is great and great haste is necessary if the valuable farm lands immediately across the river are to be saved to the country. Revival Meetings. Subject for tonight: "Samscn Grind ing at the Mill." Miss Elkins will sing a solo. Everybody is invited to attend.

The Democras Man Sees Stacks of Money. Dtnver, Colo., Nov. 19. I arrived in Denver yesterday noon. After the long trip through the dreary looking sage brush country of Idaho and Wyoming it was a great privilege to strike the splendid country between Cheyenne and Denver, where any old piece or. iana is worth $200 an acre. This is a great sugar beet lane, all along the line be ing great piles of sugar beats that had been harvested, worth about $75 an acre crross, a net income of perhaps $40 an acre, which is going some. But there are other things. Greeley is said to be the greatest potato raising center in the world. shinning 12.000 car loads a year, a train load of forty cars nearly every working day of the year.

The Harvard Crimson triumphed over the Yale Blue on Saturday by the score of 4 to 0. For the first time in seven years Yale went to defeat at the hands of Harvard. Neither eoal was crossed ana tne game won Dy a drop kick irom the field by Kennard. 35,000 people witnessed the contest. Chicago defeated Wisconsin in the greatest game of the west and wins the western championship. Score 8 to 12. But for a run across the field from the kick off the score of the two teams would have been tied. Michigan was carried to inglorious defeat by Syracuse University. At no 1 Oregon defeated the strong team j from the O. A. C. by the score of 8 to 0. Two field goals by Moullen from placement gave the victory to the Uni- versity. The result set the Eugene enthusiasts wild with irenzy ana toy. The field was wet and sloppy. Ten . thousand people ran the gauntlet of I rain and storm to witness the game, '. The result of the game shows conclu- sively that the Corvallis team has been over-rated and that the Washington teams almost as a whole are much stronger than those from Oregon. Severe Storms. All day Saturday and Sunday the ele mento have been on a rampage. Wind and rain have been so persistent as to perclude the possibility of moving about wun comrort or even saieiy. All tne smaller streams are filled to over-flowing and the Santiam river is risincr rap idly. This river is always a source of danger on account ot the suddeness with which it rises and the possible uuuger iu unuges, xarm tanas ana even the lives of near-by residents. Indica tions point to colder weather. With this change it is though the rains will cease and the rivers and streams" again seek a normal height.

Nov. 21 Of course I have been to the auditorium, the building in which one of the best men in the world was nominated for president and not elected. It is a wonderful structure, arranged so parts of it are transfera ble. Across the high room was stretched the biggest American flag in the world, about 75 by 150 feet. At the time the American Federation of Labor was holding a convention and making ar rangements to become.the balance of power in the couhtry. Street car conductors here are given a star on their lapols for each five years of service. I just saw one with two, and there are said to be some with three and four. A great deal is heard about the lung ers, a common name for- consumptives. There are two big shops here '-for the destruction of microbes, always full. There are hundreds of places for pat ients to sleep out doors. What is said to be the yellowest pap er in the city has this sign up every where: "The Denver Post is a paper witha heart and a soul". Some marvellous electric light dis plays are shown through the city, and Denyerites boast that this is the great electric It. Considerable style is displayed on the streets; but Albany people are just as crood dressers. Occasionally a woman is seen with extreme trappings; but the crowd looks like the ones seen any day in rortiand. A visit to the new museum today was worth the while. It was a Rockey mountain display and a splendid one of animals ana biras in artistic poses, min erals, oil paintings, etc. Some one said there was not a sincrle frame house here, but there are manv. The new ones, though, are all brick and stone. Barnev Hecker and I have been dodg ing each other. He called at my broth er's office for me and I was not there.

BOTH USED CUTICURA AND ARE WELL AGAIN "My husband had been a great suf ferer with rheumatism for nearly fifteen years. At first it was in his bones, but after a while it was in the flesh and finally running sores broke out on hU legs, from below the knees to the ankles. There are no words to tell all the dis comfort and great suffering he had to endure night and day. He used every kind of remedy ana three physicians treated him, one after the other, with out any good results whatever. So one day I happened to read about Cuticura Remedies. I asked him if he would not try them. 'No,' said he, 'it'B no use, I've spent enough money now.' The next day I ordered five dollars' worth of Cuticura Soap, Cuti cura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. He began to use them without confi dence but after three weeks all the sores were dried up. The burning fire Btopped, and the pains became bearable. After three months he was quite well. . Two years later the pains and sores came back after he had been working hard and had taken cold. But as soon as he used Cutioura again it cured him. Two years ago I used Cuticura Pills for general debility. They did me a great deal of good and made me well. Three months since I had pains in my back and Cuticura took them away, too. I can prove this testi monial at any time. Mrs. V. V. Albert, Upper Frenchville, Me., July 21, 1907.'
