If you want your town to succeed and grow, you must invite and encourage all kinds of competition; farmers and producers will go where there la competition, and if ycu want to drive the trade from your town, just let it be known that you hare but one shop ok a kixi, and that you want no more, and you will soon preach your own commercial funeral, and with your own epitah "Died of stagnation no competition." BoYOomsa . This species of indig nant attack is puerile, groveling and mean; it has been declared by the courts, "to be couspiracy to defraud", and any man or set of men who are guilty in word or deed of this low grov eling method of revenge, Is a "snake in the grass," and deserves the heel of contempt of every gentleman. Boy cotting is only another name for steal ing; It is cowardice, low down mean ness, revenge, rascality and general cussedness into one mca", and then call itjiy its right name "boycotting."

A horrible ao eldent occurred at this place as the train was pulling out last night. , The train is helped over Rice's hill by an extra engine, and Lafayette Lane, Jr., has been employed as llrtmsn on this engine. Last night an engineer named Jap Waite and Bliss Lucy Burnett, daughter of Hon. 8. D. Burnett, of Oak Grove, Douglas county were married. Young Lane attended the wedding, and after the wedding drank freely with the other attendants. When the time for tne train to start north arrived, the engineer on the "helper" told Lane that he was In no condition to work, to go to bed, and he would be all right In the morning. This Lane refused to do, saying he was going to work. The engineer, however, reflised to let him get on the engine, and the train started to pull out, leaving Lane standing ou the platform. He was determined to go, however, aud.when the emmigrant train reached the spot where he wits standing, he caught hold of the platform railing, at tempting to swing himself onto the car, but here Is where he miscalculated, and missing his footing, the momentum of the moving train precipitated him un der the fast moving wheels, which passed over both legs, severing them from his body. Just what his condi tion Is could not be learned, but his chances for life were considered very slim. The injured young man is a son of ex-Congressman Lafayette Iane, is a boot twenty years of age and Is con sidered a very bright young man. Yet even his brightness does not save him from teaching a great temperance les son to the manses. He Is a cousin of Dr. Harry Lane, superintendent of the asylum. Alhaxy Hkhamk Slonl )l v lliort.

I'l.AN OF WORK, We your nommittee on Plan of Work submit the following: I. That In accordance with the plan of organUstion of our National Union, we continue to urge the organization of Unions by districts aud counties. 2. As our Evangelistic Department Is (he corner stone of W. C. T. work, binding and holding the whole togeth er, we eseclally urge our Unions to use their best endeavors In making the efforts of those engaged In this work ef fectual, and that the Unions cn-oerate In placing In the field a reliable Uosjh'1 Temperance worker; that we pledge ourselves to take this siettker and do all we can im make the work etrectlvc and self supporting. 8. That our local Superintendents of Scientific Temiteranee Instruction, be vigilant In their effort' to see that directors and teachers do their whole duty in instructing the youth of our State according to law, and that we se cure the amendment to this law affix ing a penalty for the violation of the same. 4. As it Is evident that the friends of the liquor trafilc will endeavor to se cure the passage of the high license law, at the next session of our legislature. there fore, we recommend that our Un ions circulate petitions asking our leg islators to give us Statutory Prohibi tion. 5. Whkhear, It is the duty of the White Ribbon women of Oregon, to ac quaint themselves with the argument which compels our lenders to work for the franchise, therefore we recommend that the Superintendent of Literature be authorized to correspond with Un ions and suggest the Ust literature ou the subject and urge Its careful consid eration. G. That we are much gratified with the progress made In the establishment of the Industrial Home in Portland and earnestly recommend our local Un ions to dev!s ways aud means for rais ing funds for Its support. Also to carry It In prayer to Him who said "For ye have the power with you always and whensoever ye will, ye may do them good." 7. As Mrs. Andrews of the National Union has selected and published a lit of books for the Local Unions, and as oor President has suggested that we give special attention to parts of that course, we recommend that during the year our Unions purchase, read and loan the following books: "Hygiene In the Home," "Our Country," "Sci ence of Polities," "Duties of Women" and "Belter Nont." 8. That we, as housc-ket pers and home-workers feel the noccf-sitv of more hygienic knowledge nn the part of the house-keepers, and recommend that those matters be thoroughly dis cussed at mottinjts arrnugv-d for thai purpose. We esjK-eiallv press this sub ject upon mothers who need special knowledge to enable them to train their daughters in household economy, and dignify laltor. Mho. E. M. A. F M. E. Penti.axh, E.
