W. II. HYAKS -CLAKK 11. IKVINB Editor Manager. A OI.AltING 1KAUI), It is now ascertained that there will be a change made in the school books for the state of Oregon, that is the readers and arithmetics urc to bo changed aud Barnes' readers and Fish's arithmetics adopted as tho tsxt book for tho next four years. Bays the Koscburg Iteview. Tho voto has not been officially an nounced but enough nro recorded to nscertain that such will bo tho change. Now this is onoof tho most bold, glaring and impertinent out rases tliot was over imposed upon a suffering public at tho hands of men who have been, in our opinion, brib ed to do this outrageous work. Wo sty out upon such outrages that filclie thousands of dollars from tho poor people of tho state to build up rich publishing corporations. The people should rise en masse and pe tition tho next legislature to take action upon this matter of a change of school books. Something must U3 done to protect tho public and tho next legislature cannot all'ord to ignoro tills matter. It is a crying necessity that something bo done. Look to your laurels gentlemen of the legislature and oust this glaring fraud from our state and theioby win for yourselves lasting honors in doing for your constituents a noble service. Tt is tho people as against the corporations, which will you serve? PlU'HIOIINT NOHVIJf GltKIIN, ()f tho Western Union Telegraph Co., Is reported to have discovered a cure for rheumatism. That coquettish maiden, Mine. Rumor, says that lie wears a piece of copper In his shoe under one heel and a piece of zinc under tho other. Thus having the two poles of a battery a gentlo cur rent of olectriclty Is constantly playing through tho gonial Presi dent's anatomy and neutralizing tho efieets of tho agonizing rheuma tic pains. It is wild that tho copper and zlno do their perfect work so gently that Mr. Green experiences no annoyaneo; in fact, ho is not aware that ho is carrying an. infant battery around with lilm. Fito.M fho accounts of trials with iliu Campbell air ship it lis evident that a decided advance has been made In aerial navigation. It nitty bo sclent Ideally Impossible to control a vehicle In the air, but agoodmany of tho modern devices hnvo violated the rules laid down by the learned rut-workers, aud they have gone right along, Just tho same. It Is claimed Urn without wind there is perfect control, and that In rough weather tho conditions are not ma terially different from those of navigation on tho water. Further developments will bo observed with much interest. Du.NMAitK runs tho railroad with in Its Jurisdiction. It employs men as trtick-walkoru tuul women ns dag gers.

Tjik complete returns from all of the fetHte show that lfelvn Anna Look wood had three votes two In Koutiicky and one In Now York. Why she Hhould have run twice as wo'lln Kentucky s in New York is one of the mysteries of the cam-jwtlgu. IHrUAIUlASSING SITUATION. Illinois has a law ou her statue books tbat some of the judges do not propose winking at. At Mont leello Inst week Judge Hughes' instruction to the grand Jury of Cole County caused quite a commo tion. He lnsructed the grand jury to bring In indictments against ev ery ono who had bet on the election whether he be a democrat, Republi can or Prohibitionist, and to sum mon all candidates who run for of fice before the jjraud iury. It has been ascertained that a large num ber of tho present grand jury cither won or lost bets on tho late election and the question is, will he order a special venire to Indict tho grand jury? To multiply 15 by 15 and tho pro duct by Itself and so on for fifteen times would take a man ten hours a day 300 days in the year forflftcen years. i'roflt on Prunes. Some almost marvelous reports of the cash income from prunes are ap pearing in the papers with such minuteness of detail as to compel belief. Tho Tulare Times tells of results obtained near Visalia by B. C. Anderson. Five years ago liia land was in its raw state without a fruit tree on it. Last year he ob tained 5900 gross per acre from the Sliver and French prune. This year he will rccelvo for three acres of prunes and plums?2,700. Ho plants 108 trees to the acre. He says the trees must bo grafted or budded on plum stock ono to two years old. Ilesays the trees will yield ten pounds each tho fourth year, sixty tho fifth, 120 or moro the sixth, af ter that from 140 to 300. Last year ho dried twenty tons from COO trees (six acres) and sold them in sacks for R0O0. The above Is cited too as nn illus tration of the almost incredulous reports of largo margin In prune culture in Soutli California, and many more could be produced witli equal effect, but it is not necessary. That fabulous yields of prunes aud apples, and many other kinds of fruit, accompanied witli like profit are becoming moro and more general and cannot but have a very stimu lating effect upon the fruit industry all along the Pacific slope. Here in Oregon immense yields of fruit have been chronicled. California does not pretend to compete with Oregon in its production of prunes and ap ples, and when its people learn the science of growing these two pro ducts alone, tho profit per acre will bo as startling as thoso cited above. An orchard of deciduous fruit will yield as abundantly In tills county as any land under the sun, and of a much richer llavor than sonio sec lions. The foreign market oilers as much to the fruit-growers of Oregon as it does to thoso of California or any other state, and there Is noth ing left but to prepare tho way for a successful growing of that variety of fruit for which our soil Is especially adapted. Give tho orchard proper care and It will yield big profits. A Notable I'ouilnj;. Mrs. Emma Military, a notablo in ro'igioiis circles, will arrive in this city shortly after the conclusion of Moody's meetings and continue the evangelistic work for an indefinite season. Mrs. Mallory's nanio lias preceded her here, aud she Is said to possess wonderful rovlvalistlo pow ers, as well as being an eloquent speakor. Another Kuneellst ('outing. It Is expected that Major George A. Hilton of Washington D. C. will be here about the 10th of January to hold a four days mooting. Major Hilton is one of tho finest temperanco evangelists in tho United States and has been holding enthusiastic meet ings on Pugct Sound. Ho comes u nder t ho auspices of tho W. C. T.

Tho Women's Templo and Na tional To i-perance Hospital, under their respective fou nders, Mrs. Carse and Dr. Burnett, are moving on like a ship at sea whose course is defi nitely laid down and harbor chosen, and which takes the waves at the best unglo possible in order to sur mount them and make them bear it onward. There Is enough of buffet ing, but where friction aboundeth grace doth much more abound, and wo shall put the capstones of these magnificent enterprises in place with shouts of joy and prayers of grati tude, some bright day bye-and-bye. MISS WlMiABD. Mayor Archibald of Jacksonville, FIa says in reference to the yellow fever: "Two-thirds of tho fatality is due to the fact that persons have been accustomed to tho use of strong drink before they are attacked with tho fever, and in every such ease the patient invariably dies, and with out reaction. It Is a frequent re murk ou the Jacksonville streets that yellow-fever is tho best temper ance lecture tho city ever had." Mrs.' R. G. Peters of Mainstee, Michigan, has presented the W. C. T. U. of that place witli a $30,000 stone building, erected especially for them by her husband. Market for Prunes. It is understood that tho East ern cities on tho Atlantic seaboard have never been canVassed for tho salo of Oregon prunes, and they actually know nothing about them. New York and other great cities naturally should prove to bo the best market for all excellencies. Tho Oregon prune surpasses In quality any grown in Europe or America, and when introduced to Eastern customers a market will bo afforded for moro than wo can raise in the next ten years, and wo ven ture the assertion, says an exchange, that prices will never bo lower than at present right here whero they rango from ten to twelve cents per pound. It Is strange, but true, that no business effort seems to havo been niado to Introduce our cured product nt tho East, and there is tho best market for such goods. Mill ions of trees aro being plauted and their products will soon appear, for llvb years is a short tinio in a bus iness souse. If wo commence now to work up a market, wo shall grow Into full communication with the whole United States by tho tlrao our product increasos to $1,000,000 a year In value. Tho ell'ort making by the Oregon Stato Horticultural Association to get up n Fruit Growers' Union desorves till the more consideration from the fact that it will enable us to introduce our products into every market between tho two oceans, and this no Individual can do. A few prominent fruit growers will In anycaso unite their Interests and work together and It Is probable that they will do better for them selves thau a largo association can do for them; but they recognize that it is for the best Interest of all to work In entire harmony. They believe that excellence will pay and they proposo to reach such exeol loneo In their own work as to Insure good prices. If all prominent fruit men will Join this movement tho result will be nn eurtre succoss be cause it will bo Ijulc-penrtetu anil re sponsible.
