OUR people arc lying supinsly ON
on their backs, many Of them hugging
the delusive phantom Of hope, and wait
ing, Micawber like, for something TO
turn up, whereby improvements and
business may be made to revive in our
city. Others are already croAking
about tho city being dead, never to ra-
vive again. This condition of extreme
depression has fallea to tho let OF near
ly every city of any note in the country.
Que thing is sslf-evident, that business
will never revive, nor will any enter
prises be inaugurated hero until our
people show by their works that they
have an abiding faith in the future
progress aud growth of The city. In m
way can they more emphatically mani
fest this faith, than by the erection of a
school house fully suitable TO the de-
mands and needs Of the district, and one
in keeping with the progress Of the age.
We tell our people, once for all, that
this city can never become . deserted
village, but It remains for our people to
determine whether we will now place
ourselves in the line OF progress and en-
terprise that are now soon TO awaken
and inspire the heretofore conservative
people of Oregon, Washington and Ida.
no with new life, vigorous effort, and an
active spirit and determination to pro-
mote the maternal Progress Of the coun-
try. It is useless TO attempt TO pro-
duce the proof showing the necessity of
q good school house. The futility OF
answering the argument that our school
houses are rs good as those in use when
we went to school, is apparent. The
necessities have been shown time and
again in the columns of the press Of
the city. as we'll as fully shown and dis
cussed among our people, and a large
majority of them are convinced Of this
great public need. Then why wait :
Why put Off until next year what
should be done this yearl The same
seeming obstacles now in the way will
have to he overcome next year. This
same opposition, if any, will te met
with next year that exists now. Pro-
crastinatien is the thief Of time. Then
let us not delay, but let us all valiantly
lay hold to accomplish this great work
and show our neighooripg cities that
we still have some public spirit among
our citizens.

The death of Mrs. Geo. Mcbride, ol
Peoria, on the 22nd inst., was an un-
usually sad affair from the fact she left
q family of small children, seven in
number, the oldeat about IL years old
and the youngest pair of twins only 8
weeks old. One of the twins being in
bad health at the time, together with
the extreme sorrow occasicned by the
death of the wife and mother, was
more than the poor man could bear.
At IL o'clock at night, on the 25th
inst, George Mcbride died from the
effects of ruptured artery in the neck,
supposed to have been caused by over
