DeTflopment League Visits Irrlf?m.
Last Tuesday the special carrying
delegates to tbe I'hird District con
vention at Ileppner stopped in our
city short time Bnd tbe visitors
were given an entbusiBHtio receptioc.
The train pulled io at 1 p. m. and
was met at tbe depot by a Inrge num
ber of people, tbe school children
marching In a body. 'I'he Utter car
ried tlHga galore and received tlit
company with the very approprinte
song. "Oregon." Tbone who came
were representative business men ol
the district whom it was genuine
pleasure to meet. They aie the kind
of people that will push our section
of country to tbe iront and will,
when the Developement League it
formed, aend out printed matter and
assist in bringing settlers to the
country. , ,
Prof. Wells, of Pendleton, made a
short address to the school children
.n,l tha VmuI hand delighted us with
flne aolections. But the event
of the dav came when the colored

to ear and from tbe top of bis fore
hori in tiiA nnint of bis chin and
yelled, "Watch Irrlgon growl" It
minded like the roll of thunder or
the rumbling of an earthquake.
A number ot persons joinod the ox
cursion at this point so that our city
was well represented. The delegates

Apple Crop and Apple Eaters.
So much of the following letter
printed in a St. Louis paper, as
praUes the anplo, aud pleads for a
more general consumption is in
hearty accord with the views of apple
doaiera. His assumption that there
is au "apple trust" shows that he
knows a good deal more about the
merits of the apple than ho does nt
the way it is marketed.
St. Louis, l)ec, G.
To the Editor of thotilobo-HeuiomHt:
1 bave read with Intern t y r sev
eral editorials on the large O op of ap
ples, tho rapacity of the a pie trust
aud the threatened loss to tt farmer
on account thereof. As a ual, the
consumer will suiter the greater Ions
in reing deprived ot the moit whole
some fruit on earth.
it occurred to me that a simple
remedy might alford the needed re
lief. Kstimating that there are 30.000
families in St. Louis who would buy
from one to five barrels ot good ap
ples at, say 12 per barrel, why would
it no prove profitable t3 a country
man to insert au advertisement 'u the
papers stating that Mr. Farmer had
apples for sale, aud ollenug to take
orders by mail, the fruit to be paid
for on delivery?
Of course, we realize a in a vague
sort of way that there are apples in
the market, and that occasionally
they are to be had at reasonable tig
ureB. We also kuow that when wo or
der a bariel we have to pay from il)
to $4.50 for it, regardless of the price
quoted in the daily market report.
W are also awaro of the fact that
farmers do take orders fpr apples.
These things are known to us in the
abstract, but theie Ms the point. Ii
Farmer lirowo will tell us, in Roo.i
large print that he bas good Geuet
lng, Wlnesap, Willowtwig. Wellington
and Roman lleauty apples for sale,
and that be will till orders with hon
est goods (this does not mean culls of
half decayed fruit), Mr. lirown iil

Pure air is an absolute necessity, and no

house.
Where open-flame illuminants rob the air
of oxigen aud turn it into carbonic acid gas,
pure air is an impossibility.
Air poisoned by the flame of gas jet, or
that of an oil lamp is unfit for breathing
purposes and exercises a decidedly injurious
effect upon the occupant of the room.
Electric Light burning in an air-tight bulb
