TI1E ItRnUtLDING OF OUKOON, -Before uuotber census is taken Oregon will bave well on towards a million lubabltants. Doubling tbe population will rt-qulrc doubling the capacity of state institutions and railway mileage. The rebuilding of On-gou will require remodelling of tbe state coiistitutlo-i ( be mora in keeping with the modern order of things. Yjutitt men now In their prime wilt witness ull these changes btffore they ruaeh their maturity. Tbe uew Oregon will retain all tho good things of the old and, inspired by the kinship of modern ties with all tbe sisterhood of the Union, wll) grasp for the best gifts possess! by ull tho states of tho Union. Promi nent in education, liboral toward religion and welcoming ull desirable tnpourlng elements of population, Oregon Is destined to be umoug Pacltlo coast states what Mas3a- chusett's is amoug the Atlaullo and New England states. Ilor senators aud jurists are today not outranked by any. Her Portland is the Bos ton of tho coast, as Sau Francisco is the New York. Her forests, wheat fields, fisheries and mines constitute Oregon one gigantic undeveloped New England, only that her rivers are mightior and her ctimato aud fruits as rich as those of California. New Oregon will bo rebuilt on a more generous scale. New cities will ariBe, as yet unthought of. New agricultural, horticultural and mlu ral wealth will appear. Trans continental railway systems will thrust their fingertips of steel into the harbors for Asiatic commerce and locomotives will raco with caoh other through the tunnels of Cas cade aud Coast ranges. There is room hero for a half million of surplus eastern popula tion. With that population, which is Oregon's heritage from tho Crowded east, will come tho leaven that will rovolutlouizo muc! of tho now exlstlug order of things and the rebuilding of Oregon will be full of surprises to many now living. BC8TAIN1 TIIK COMMISSION. The Grange and the Alliance are both by their fundamental law com mitted to the railway commission system. Tho former claims to have originated tho interstate commerce commission, Tho demand of the Alliance Is: We demand a most rigid, honest and just nutionai control and super vision of the means of nublla com munication aud transportation, and If this control and supervision does not, remove tuo anuses now oxisuug, we demand the government owner ship of such means of communica tion aud transportation. "Control and supervision" cannot be exorcised through a "maximum rate law," A maximum rate law needs the stato officials and courts to enforce it. A legislative enact ment will not Investigate a Labial disaster, tunnel accidents, or go on tours of Inspection and compel the rebuilding of trestles and bridges, or enable shippers to get redress without going to law with a cor poration. The Grauge aud the Alllunco should help sustain the Oregon commission In Its fight for lower rates. TUESW.KM WAY. With characteristic euorgy the Capital City Electric railway exten slon subsidy Is nearly completed aud tbe road is utmost certain, to be ex tended one mile south at once. But three parties have yet to be arranged with. The company are neuotla ting with a capitalist to have an of fice building erected on upper Com mercial street, That Is distinctively IheSaleih Way of doing tilings. TJiuJouuNAr, U Informed at n late hour today that a Balem business house Is having plans made to put In un lighted store one hundred and slxtyslxfeet deep aud put In tbe largest wholesale stock carried In the state outside of Portland. That will be a little Balem item for 1602 worth noticing. Aud that will be the Salem way of doing things. BoaaicrrKu fio.KXK.vr. .

Tho speech was a scholarly, statesmanlike and very able argu ment by Senator Turple, of Indiana. The next senatorial oration was pronounced by Teller In favor d? free coinage of silver. wmmmmmammmmmwmmmgmmmmmm The slato board of equalization have more than paid their expenses for the year to como by levelling up tho assessment of mortgages $10,000,- 000.

WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY. The Oldest, Largest and Most like Institution onUip Pacific Coast It was opened In 1814, and overy year since It has steadily grown to Its present enylablo proportions. Last year 600 students wero in at tendance In all departments. It has added from tlmu to time now work till all points of an or dinary education aro pretty fully covered with Us many doparti mente. There Is located at Port land our flourishing Medical nnd Pharmaceutical departments, and at Salem, thoso of Law, Theology, Art, Elocution, Conservatory of Music, Collego, in throe grades, Academy, and Grammar. Tho academy provides tbe preparation for each college grudo, and the business and normal course. Thorough and efficient professors aro at tho head of each depart ment. Students pursuing one course can avail themselves of the privileges of other studies. So that a great variety of study may be prosecuted. Special caro Is taken of tho ma terial welfare of students, The fire of Sept. 10th has Interfered with the accommodations for young men. But rejuvenation is well nigh completion, when excellent rooms will bo In readiness to wel come tho beat young men of the patronizing territory. Excellent board forsuoh Is to be had at the University hall for 2.00 por week. The Woman's college under tho able management of Dean Hansce aflords unrivalled advantages for young ladles. Tholr rootni are neatly furnished and tho tablo woll spread. The careful supervision exercised, tho skillful training Im parted, renders this one of tho most attractive resorts for young' ladles, as It is ono of tho safest and bo.it placo for parents to send thorn. Fur nished rooms and beard are supplied at 13.60 per week, which aflordt more and better for tho muuey than can be easily secured. Those admirable facilities of a first class school aro put within tho reaoh of young people at au annual expense of front $100 to f 200. Is it not wonderful? Aud If this amount is not at command, work Is given aud other help to meet tho required necessities. Surely no young per son of average health and power iieed fall of a first closi education. In addition to the oxoollout courses of Instruction, now things aro being Introduced till nothing shall bo wanting to make Its curricula oqual to tho best. Important additions bave beon jmvta to tho grammar and normal departments, and ar rangements aro In propirattoA for increased facilities in its college, business, normal and college prepar atory courses, which with Increased effort to make Its work as tUorouli as It Is extonilvo will make this a most efficient and attractive school. Courses of lectures will bo Intro duced for the purpose of Imparting special instruction. Hilern I moit charmingly located for a University dlty. As the capital of tho stale there centers hero much to add to the strength aud thrift of such an Institution. The pressing neotmlly of a new building for the literary dopartmeut is dally felt.

KIRK A1.AKX SYSTKM. A Much Needed Institntlan MelRx; la trodacwl is Salem. It is wellknowu throughout the Willamette valley that Balem has a Superior volunteer fire department and now Is being Inaugurated what will mako It stilt more servlolablo, a complejo flro alarm system. The company is under tho management of W. J. Holman, who has already Inaugurated tho good work. Tho V8tom adopted is tho samo as that used in most of tho leading cities and In addition thereto It is tho In tention to open a district messenger service. It Is a wollkuown fact that tho loss of n few moments time at tho outset of a flro often involves great loss of property and some times human life. With this fact In vlow tho Importance of an electric flro alarm system can hardly be over estimated. A city may be possessed of a good water supply ajid a woll organized flro depart ment, but without the oleotrlo alarm uolthcrls available at the time when it Is most needed. With the alarm system the usefulness of the depart ment is Increased in a ratio which makes the cost insignificant lu com parison. An alarm box should be In every factory, public building aud street crossing, aud although about twenty-five boxee have already beon set up In Salem, boxes are ordered aud arrangements being mado to put In many more through out tho city, Mr. Holttiau throughly understands tbe workings of the system, and will uo doubt perfect the system to such a degree that it will be tho prldo of our city, Tko New Discovery. You havo heard your friends and neighbors talklug about It. You may yourself bo ono of tho many who knoW from ncrsonal oxncrkinco iuet how good a thing it Is. If you mvo ever tried it, you aro mm ot lis staunch menus, because tho wonder ful things about It is, that wheii ones given a trial, Br, King's New Discovery ever after holds a place lu the house, If you never beed It and should bo art! toted with a cough, cold or any throat, lung or oheet trouble, secure a bottle at ouce aud glvio It a fair trial. It Is guaranteed every time, or money refunded. Trial bottle free at Fry's drugstore, 226 Commercial street. Ceaerete H'ark to 1891.
