I t is believed that the building of
the Siberian railway will greatly
diminish immigration to the United
States in the next few years. Half
of Siberia is an undeveloped country
as desirable as Minnesota, and free
homes may be had there.
E uropeans seem rather to like the
proud way in which the stars anil
stripes float. Immigration has not
been so brisk at our eastern ports
for twenty-five years.
What is
better, the class of immigrants is
reported excellent.

the following suggestions, which,

nevertheless true, and point out a
tendency in Oregon to misconstrue
the eternal fitness of things: “As

It should be observed with a great
funeral service for those lately fal­
