The appropriation made by Oregon is
believed to have been money well spent,
and the state will see good results in in
creased population. This event will tide
us over till 1905, when the Lewis A
Clark exposition will prove tbe greatest
contributor to Oregon’s growth and de
velopment that the state has ever seen.
The Rev. J. Wood Stone, of Hanford,
Calif., preached two sermons on Sunday
at the Cumb. Presbyterian church,
which were very acceptable to his audi
ences. Before his leaving the following
day, the sesaion extended him a call to
serve the church as pastor, and the same
was accepted. Mr. Stone secured the
McKinney house on north E street as
his place of residence, and the church
parsonage is now for rent
He will re
move to McMinnville during December,
bringing his family, which consists of
his wife, and two sons in their teens.

the number of head of cattle in con
sequence growing less, and consum
ers of beef increasing. It is also a
deplorable fact that our farmers,

not raise more cattle.
Advnntagea of Hlver Tran.porta-

There is growing indignation locally
among business circles as a result of the
recent withdrawal of all steamhoat traf
fic to this city. The reason given is low
stage of water, but the alleged low stage
is all below Dayton, to which landing
boats still make regular trips. It is not
understood that any obstacle intervenes
between Dayton and McMinnville to
the most tranquil navigation. It is well
known that the government has ex
pended thousands of dollars to make it
possible for teats to traffic on this river
as far as McMinnville. The fact that a
few individuals have it in their power to
levy upon the people of this section just
the tribute they see fit by destroying all
competition in hauling, is a most lament
able one, and one that covers our faces
with a sickly grin when we recall the
self-gratulations and public glorifica
tions over the completion of the locks
last year, and the strong hopes that
filled our breasts of attaining unto a con
dition of relief from exorbitant freight
rates. There is one consolation left us.
It cannot always last.
Forbearance
will cease to be a virtue
Tbe reins of
power are supposed to b<- in tbe hands
of the people, if they w ill but use them.
Already a proposition conies from one
navigator that he will run an indepen
dent teat w ith a certain reasonable guar
antee of patronage. Another thing re
mains to be done. Tbe allied steamboat
interests have all the wharf privileges,
and a new wharf will have to be con
structed to accommodate an indepen
dent boat.
Freight rates have already gone up.
Merchandise that formerly came at the
Hat rate of toe per 100 pounds is now
from 12c to 19c.
One merchant paid
50 more freight on Tuesday on a little
hill of goods than would have been re
quired under the old boat schedule.
Another local dealer estimates that at
present rates, if they go no higher, the
increase in his yearly freight charges
will reach $150.
What will be done
about it? The situation emphasizes a
long existing need of some organized
effort to pnmiote the commercial anil
material interests of the town. Let the
old board of trade be revived, or a new
one called into life.
Outside coopera
tion is always more surely attracted to a
town that gives encouragement through
organized effort. We can at least dem
onstrate whether we are hopelessly in the
hands of a trust.

There i* Hope For Newberv.
The trustees of Dallas College have
said that football must be ruled out.
Dallas College be praised! She is in the
vanguard. A few years hence she can
look back and say: “I started this re
form in athletics in Oregon educational
institutions.”—Reporter
The above effusion would carry more
weight if it were not for the fact that it
is seriously suspected that Dallas College
is suffering more from that common
malady known as “cold feet,” than from
a burning altruistic longing to reform
Oregon athletics.—Newberg Graphic.
While Dallas College takes care of the
cold feet, we rise to remark that the
Graphic has made a very unexpected
admission that there could be anything
altruistic in a desire to reform football.
T. M. Witten of this place and F. II.
< aidwell of North Yambill have made a
trade of drug stores, the exchange hav
ing already teen made. Mr. Witten and
family were just becoming known in

their departure.—Graphic.
