Tt Is pawing strange thnt a largo por
tion f humanity cannot rcalt.o that
Xljcro is a difference between a prin
triple, -nod tho person or paper which
taSvotatof it. Tho Journal Is an itnpor
Bonal japer. It has not uow, lms noVcr
Bail, sad hopes It may novor have any
.3cniiBtto wago war on any man. It re
alizes tho frailty of humanity. It
Dcmw that men differ on nil subjects,
nui AiCTer honestly. It rccognl7.es tho
fact ilmt it is not infallible, and ox
Ztanfts to nil mankind tho samo charity
tit bwi It must also ask. It endorses
mhtt It boliovcs to bo right, and con
Hcims what it considers wrong, nnd it
UotHc Jiryond tho man who stands for
rtlre ttluug at issue, to tho thing itself.
Jit Brufl no quarrel with Mr. Fletcher,
lit 3ms nono now. Ilo is an honest man
nwd clever gentleman, whoso reputation
Ha artjovc, reproach. Ilo is cnpnblo and
ftntcltigent, but, liko Tho Journal, ho is
mot infallible. It was against tho moth
tods of the board, not its members, that
'Tlio Journal contended. Tho school
ftaard's meeting bchiud olosod doors
-wns un-Aincrlcan. Its dismissal of
tteaeltrr arbitrarily was, in our opin
Son, unjust. Against its action, not
-.against tho board, or nny ono of its
tmeiabers, Tho Journal raised its volco.
0n n occasion has this paper boasted
over victory by those with whom it
wtoad. It has "been content with tho
tfarj, lint on this occasion it scorns only
' proper to say what wo nro now saying.
"Tho Journal took up tho Aght against
Stho Jdgh rates of intorest being paid
fby 4ho city. It demanded n 4 per cent
ersta instead of 6, nnd tho people,
tnrensed by it, accomplished that result.
SU 4cmnudad that tho school district ob
ttrfln money for 4 per cent, Instead of
:8 or D, and tho district pays only tho
Bower rate now, It asked recently that
ft he school board meet openly, instead
of in somo back ofllec, nnd'that tho pub
ale might know what was being done.
It is probable this reform has now
Imen accomplished, nnd that being done,
dbo mibjcct may well bo dropped, nnd

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
What Mr. Boala Has Learned During
tho Wook,
Tho weather during tho past wcok
has ben quito favorablo for tho grow
ing crops. In somo few localities lato
sown wheat and onta would bo benefit-'
ted by moro fain, nnd, owing to tho
dry weather, grass on tho low land
ranges in tho interior counties is turn
ing brown, but it is still green nnd
nbundnnt in tho foothills nnd moun
tains. Stock generally is in cxcellont
rendition. Fall wheat is filling nicely
nnd full barley is ripening nnd will
noon bo ready to cut. Spring wheat
continues to mnko satisfactory progr
ross, nnd onts, although not In so good
condition as spring wheat, look promis
ing. Tho grain aphis is disappearing,
unit no groat damago has been dono by
this pest. Haying has beguu and will
become general in n wcok or two.
Much clover, vetch and alfalfa lias al
ready been secured, nnd tho hay crop
generally promises to bo an nverago
ono. if not better. Hops aro arming
and show .considerable improvement
slneo last report. Tho yards aro well
cultivated, but on account of missing
hills and unovon growth yields are ex
pected to bo loss tliau usual. Early
potatoes nro in tho markot. Cherries
aro ripo nnd tho crop is below the
average, being good in somo localities
and almost n failuro in others. Straw
berry picking Is nearly finished, and
tho crop turned out to bo below tho
avorago in quantity, but about as usual
iu quality.

It docs not socm thnt tho losi of a
Httlo bunch of keys would bo a really
sorlous matter, yet a young Snlcmlte,
win? hns arrived nt that ago that ho is
watching his upper lip to sco whether
tho romarkablo growth is going to be
alfalfa or just common hay, is in deep
trouble over such a loss. Thcro nro
thrco keys on tho ring. Ono fits the
lock on his room, another holds tho
open aensamo to his trunk, whilo tho
third fits tho padlock that fastens his
boat to the shore. It is a bad combina
tion. Ho hns n dato with his best girl,
who lives somo placo botweon Salem
and Kola. Now tho Tsoys to his room
being gone ho can't got nt his trunk.
True, ho could break dWn tho dnnr or
climb over tho transom, only thoro ain't
any, but, ns ho has no trunk key,
"what's tho use!" His other shirt is
in tho trunk, and if ho smashed tho
trunk, whnt good would It do him with
his boat lookod to n balm-of-gilend tree,
which is tho only bnlm-of-giload which
enters into tho situation.' If ho ca,n't
get tho boat ho can't got his girl, nnd
if ho can't get tho girl, why spoil that

Timber Testing Station.
Dy act of tho last stato legislature a
timber testing stntion was established
at tho U. of O. Tho machinery is now
in Portlnnd, nnd tho plant will bo in
operation when tho school yenr be
gins. The United Statos government
will furnish nn nblo instructor in this
dopnrtmnnt. Thn testing stntion will
bo equipped with tho latest machines
nnd appliances necessary for testing
tho strongth of timber, stono nnd met-
nls.
Tho university Is indeed fortuunto in
having such a favorablo donartmont
nddod. Tho studonts now will havo an
ujcuiiunt opportunity 10 loarn mucu
nbout our grontost product.
Tho establishing of this testing plnnt
means very much for tho West. As it
now is tho Oregon nnd Washington
timber has novcr been thorouehlv test-
cd "by government ofllclnls. When tho
government orects nny buildings, it uses
only those kind of timber nnd stone
which it hns tostud. As a result of this
only Eastern nnd Southorn tirnbor is
used in tho construction of tho cov-
eminent buildings.. Hero in tho West, in
the midst of tho greatest and host tirn
bor bolt of tho world, Southorn nino
is shipped into build government build
ings simply liccnuso It has boon tostod,
nnd thoy know what it will stand, nnd
thoy know nothing nbout Western fir.
With tho establishing of a tostiue
plnnt nt tho univorsity. under Govern
ment instruction, all our wostorn ma
terial will bo thoroughly tested, and in
tho future Oregon flr will be used bv
tho govornmont in placo of Southern
pine. Thoy will ship our lumbor East,
in placo of shipping other lumber
West, nnd tho valuo of our greatest pro
duct will rlso materially.
Thero nro great quantities of stono
in tho West. Up to the prcsont thero
has boon nO( way of testing this, so it
has bcon used vorv little outside of its
own vicinity. This testing plnnt will
uotermino tho commercial valuo of this
rock, nnd will in nil nrobnbilltv causa
now industries to spring up.
Tho opening of theso industries will
call for poople to manage them. Tho
university, with its new courso of study,
wil 1 tumuli those men. Tho courso
will bo complete, so nny ono wlshlnc

Your Life
Current.
The power that gives .you
life and motion is the nerve
force, or nerve fluid, located jh
the nerve cells of the brain,
and sent out through the
nerves to the various organs.

irritable, cannot sleep; have
headache, feel stuffy, dull and
melancholy, or have neuralgia,
rheumatism, backache, peri
odical pains, indigestion, dys
pepsia, stomach troubleor the

Power-producing fuel is need
ed ; something to increase nerve
energy strengthen the nerves.
Dr. Miles' Restorative Ner
vine is the fuel you need. It
feeds tire nerves, produces nerve
force, and restores vitality.
