0. R. & N. HAS NEW
ADVERTISING MAN
A. C. Jackson, of Sau Francisco,
baa been appointed advertising agent
for tbe Ilarrinian lines in tbe North
west, bin appointment to become
elfectire November 1. lie succeeds
H. M. Hall, formerly advertising man
for tbe allied lines, who resigned last
September. Tbe announcement of
the apointroent was made yesterday
by William McMurray geueral passen
ger agent for tbe ilarrimau lines in
this territory.
Tbe appointment was decided upon
at tbe recent visit of Mr. McMurray
to Chicago, where be bad a confer
ence with the heads of tbe iiarriman
system. Mi. Jackson was picked to
fill tbe place on tbe strengb of bis ex
cellent record while in the Iiarriman
service, as be ha been connected
witb tbe Southern Pacillo for a long
time
Mr. Jackson bai been confidential
nun for Charles S. Fee, passenger
tratlio manager for tbe Southern Pa
cific, with offices at Sin Francisco.
He is a native Calif ornian and has
lived in that state all his life.
The choice of Mr. Jackson for the
vacancy will be pleasing to Southern
Paclio oilicialf, who are already ac
quainted witb him and know bis rec
ord, lie baa had a flue railroad train
ing and is a splendid advertising
man. He ban been witb tbe Southern
Pacific in responsible positions for
the past 15 years.
Mr. Jackson is spoken of as a man
who is full of the ppirit.of J the West.
As be is in such cose touch witb the
coast, be is Juaturally enthusiastic
over the possibilities of ths territory
and will thus be fitted to write enter
tainingly and truthfully of the ooaat
country.
Under Mr. MoMurray's direction of
tbe passenger and advertising depart
ments of the Iiarriman lines larger
things are planned tor the work of
exploiting tbe Northwest and more
attention will be paid to advertising
this section of the country than evei
before. In bis new advertising man,
it is said, be will find an able second
in tbis work, who brings to it a large
fund of experience and enthusiasm
Mr. Jackson will arrive in Portland
late tbis month. Oregooian.
BY THE WAY
Think of New York being govrened
by the Evening Journal.
In New York all mankind is divided
into two classes. Those who think
Murphy owns Hearst and those who
think Hearst owns Murphy.
Why, ther's two votss for Heart: t
right in the Katzenjammer family.
Mayor MoClelland insists that be
was "put off at Buffalo."
Mr. Hearst having mutely appealed
foi quiet and temporarily stilled the
deafening applause, announoes that
he is not for Murphy.
Tbe old and new Demoorats of New
Yoik are now so far apart that it is
thought the services of tbe police will
be reqired.
Muob as bis great wbite sonl revolts
at Mn'-phy, Hearst is willing that be
should name most of the candidates
for supreme court judgeships.
From the newspaper pictures, Mi.
Hearst appears to be an unusually tall
man, but tbe impression gams that be
Is rapldy shrinking.
Most preson are not , "personally
worried much about the president's
efforts to curb tbe power of great
wealth."
Viewing tbe present alliance of
Murphy and Hearst, it is probable
that many New Yorkers now regret
the departure of Crocker.
That French anarchist who reoeutly
inherited a big fortune and title will
now have to quit throwing bombs and
get to dodging tbem.
Young Mr. Rockefeller says that a
man tao wants to succeed must learn
to control bis temper. Good idea to
learn to control coal oil as a side line.
It is now pretty generally admitted
that Mr. Brisbane writes Mr. Hearst's
speeches, but so far no one bai been
unkind enough to allege that he real
ly believes tbem.
Over In tbe Isle of Pines, tbe gov
ernment has been raising money by
giving Sunday ice cieam' festivals.
Tbey can now laise some more by
buying an oystei and giving an oys
ter sepper.
Seoretary Root went to South
America on tbeC Wleston. aud came
back on tbe Columbia. That ought
to prevent any undu feeling of jeal
ousy between tbe South Carolina
towns.
It seems to be pretty generally
oonceded tbat President Palma was
simply a good natured misfit.
Except tbe little troubles In Santo
Domingo and Cuba, paeoe reigns ',a

An engineer says Coney Island is
sinking and will be under water in
about 800 years. Yes, and if tbey

called carnivals, it ought to be wiped

Wbat is worrying both sides in New
York is the fact tbat tbe election will
be decided by the man who doesn't
make muob noise but rotes just as be
pleases.

Oregon Apple; Supreme.
Tbe east is payiug more money foi
Oregon apples this year than for any
other apples raised in tbe United
States, says tbe Baker City Herald.
And this in the face of the faot that
the apple crop of the country is about
50 per cent greater than last year..
According to H. J. Miller, traveling
freight and passenger agent of tbe
Northwestern lines who has just con
cluded bis work in tbe fruit districts
between Baker City and Hood River,
the demand in tbe east for Oregon
fruit was never so great as tbis year.
Spitzenbergs and Newtown Pippins
are this yrai selling at an advance of
teu cents a box over the price of last
year, despite tbe faot tbut there are
about 70,000,000 barrels of apples in
tbe country twice as many as last
year.
Tbe two varieties of apples men
tioned are selling for about $3. 10 and
12.75 a box delivered on the oars at
Hood River. One New York firm
bought 50 carloads of these Oregou
apples last week while other eastern
firms bave taken smaller shipment
during the entire season.
Tbe people In tbe fruit raising sec
tions of Oregon where there is ade
quate transportaion facilities are go
ing wild, says Mt. Miller. Fruit
lauds is commanding enormous prices
iu every district and the demand is
something wonderful. Blue Moun

'WOMAN'
"Woman" is the name of a new magazine for women.
The first number is just issued. Your newsdealer has it.
You can get it from him, and it is worth your wh?le getting
it. There is nothing startling about this magazine. There
should be nothing startling about a decent magazine for
women and the home. But this particular magazine is
unique among all the so-called publications for women.
You might not like it a little bit, and then, again, it might
hit your fancy good and hard.
If you like fiction good, wide-awake, snappy stories
both serials and short stories you will like " Woman."
In fact, fiction is the big feature of the magazine.
All the other magazines for women are cast on the same
model a little bit of fiction, a few articles, more or less
chit chat, some wise advice, a fashion department and a
smattering of general miscellany. "WOMAN" doesn't
look any more like this conventional model than a yellow
dog looks like a race horse. It is built on new lines for a
strictly woman's publication. To know what it is like you
will have to get a copy of it. It would cost too much to
tell you all about it in this advertisement.
The price of "WOMAN " U TEN CENTS A COPY,
and the magazine is a very hi one 192 pages.
By the way, two rattlinsf good serial stories be .in in this first num
ber and it contains a hi- : lot s of other good things. You would
do well to ask your dealer for it before his f.ipply is exhausted.
