THAT THE OREGON BANKERS
WOULD TAKE SIMILAR ACTION.
Ocorgo IL O'Brien, cashior of the
American National Bank of San Frao
cisco, said that tho movement had no
sting in it for honest companies, and
that moit of tho companies trying to
ovado payment woro moro scared than
liuTt. Ho said that plenty of nionoy
could bo obtainod, though stocks had
been depressed in eastern monoy inur

Thcro is nothing to prevent such
companies f'om, rofuslng to pay losses
by firo induced by tho enrthquako.
Thcro is strong talk of organizing

novel, "Tho Resurrection of Miss Cyn

This novel and its immediato pre
decessor, "Tho Transfiguration of Miss
Philura," develop" her new and hope
ful philosophy of tho "infinito sup
ply." Tho supply of all tho good wo de
slro is incxhnustiblc. To many this
philosophy is a joko, but to Mrs. Kings-
loy it is a great reality. "Bo careful
what you wish for, becauso you are
going to got it," sho admonishes her
Sunday School class. She suys this
philosophy applies to money, food, and
other material wants as well as to spir
itual needs.

Tho Orogoninu overestimates the
amount of reform legislation that has
boon put through tho Republican legis
lature, and that has been drafted by
Republicans.
If tho Republicans hnvo enacted
many reform measures THEY HAVE
NOT YET BEGUN TO AFFECT THE
PRACTICAL WORKINGS OF THE
STATE GOVEENMENT.

Then tho people certainly had no

Zionists in Convention.
Tannu willo, N. Y., Juno 29. Tho
annual convention of tho American
Federation of Zionists opened horo to
day with a record-breaking attendance
of delegates from all parts of the
Unltfred States. It is probably duo to
tho recent ovonts in Russia and tho
general agitation in favor of expatri
ating tho Russian Jews and transplant
thorn to somo other country or countries
that tho interest in tho convention is
greater this year than ever before 'and
it is expected that the urgoncy of tho
situation will havo a tendency to ro-
movo a great deal of tho f.-iction which
has characterized former meetings of
tho Zionist Federation.
Thcro a'ro about 300 delegates in at
tondanco at tho Hotel Fairmont, which
has boon spocinlly reserved for this
o.vont. Tho convention wilUlasfc until
July 5, nndi promises to bo unusually
successful. Tho principal subject of
consideration will bo tho question how
to bring about tho early realization of
tho Zionists' plan of establishing Jew
ish colonics in Palestine Many distin
guished leadors of tho Zionist move
ment in this country aro hore, among
thorn' Prof. Solomon Schlcchter, ropro
sonting tho Hebrew Thoologicnl semi
nary; Prof. Max Schlossinger, Hobrow
Union college, in Cincinnati; Dr. J. L.
Magnes, Dr. Dombit of Louisville, Ky.,
and many others.
Last year tho Zionist convention was
hold in Philadelphia, tho yean bqforo in
Clovelnnd, O., and; throo years ago in
Pittsburg, Pa. Each of theso meetings
has marked a groat interest in tho num
ber of ponsons interested in the move
ment nndi it is confidently expectod
that the, offect of tho present conven
tion will bo ovon moro telling.
Cotton Spinners Givo In.
Fall River, Mass., Juno 20.-Tho cot
ton manufacturers of this city havo
granted tho operators a 14 por cont in
crease! in wages. Tbout 25,000, hands
will bo benefited by tho increase. Tho
now scale, which will tako effect noxt
Monday, is practically tho samo ns that
prevailing previous 6 July 1, 1904. As
othor Now England cotton manufactur
ing ccntorp follow tho lead of Fall Riv
er as a rule, tho chango is expectod ul
timately to affect all cotton mill work
ors in this 'section.
Tho controversy loading up to tho
settlcmont of tho present wago ques
tion was ono of tho shortest In tuo His
tory of Fall River toxtild troubles. For
snvnrnl months the unions had been
dissatisfied with their dividends, these
avcrneincr lately but 4 and 5, with oc
casionally 8 por cent. As a result of
a mooting of tho textile council early in
Juno a letter was sent to tho Manufac
turers' Association on Juno 8, request
ing a restoration of tho 12 por cont
reduction in wages mndo in 1904. This
request was rofused by tho manufactur
ers, who offered to guarantee a divi
dend of 5 por cent, dating from Juno
18 to October 1. Tho unions rofusod
to accept this proposition. A 14 per
cont incrcaso on tho present wages is
noccssary to bring about a restoration
of tho 12 por cent reduction of 1904.
Tho now rato will bo substituted for
tho sliding scalo dividend system.
