The questions of Skeptic last week
are both presunptious, and are both
false conclusions from false premises
The children of Israel we're never
heathens as people or a nation, and
there are no Jews even to this day who
deny the living God or fail to recog
nize the God of their fathers.
The brethren OF Joseph did not ''send

cruelty to traders, neither knowing oi

overruled their wiekedness and brought
good out of evil. Joseph was indebted
to God for his goodness and prosperity
he was only indebted to his brethren
for being sold into slavery.

Marrying for Reautx.

There are many who marry for
beauty in the person of the one chosen.
A graceful form or handsome bearing
or ruddy countenance has charmed
the heart. Much as beauty is to be
priced, pity for the one who forgets
character, merit, and temper of mind
and qualities of heart under the daze
of a glowing beauty. The beauty soon
fades and leaves nothing in its place.
True worth and nobleness of nature
and disposition are so paramount to all
else that beauty is of comparative lit
tie worth. 1t is remarkable how few
real handsome men or pretty women,
so styled by the ordinary standards,
there are who are worth the clothes
they wear.-Telcscope.

appeared in this city last spring, and

were committed. Over $50 persons,

Reports from the Middle States In
dictate large exodus or farmers to
uther States, where they hope 10 better
their condition aud avoid the cold wlil-
ters, the arnughts aud floods, the bliz-
cards and hurricanes, the plaques OF
grasshoppers and ehinch bugs, which
eecin 10 be their only lot nc home
Where these people will go depends
upon the amount and character Of lit
eratare placed before them by the hun
slreda Of advertising agents from the
West and south. The Portland News
says every State and Territory west of
che Mississippi river has It's agents
throughout the East disseminating
knowledge Of its particular locality,
while lsundreds of real estate firms,
corporations or colonies have their pri-
vsate immigration boards for their par
ticUlar schemes.
No country under the sun offers In
slucements in the way of never-failing
rrops, eqnahle climate, varied and un-
developed resources, wealth Of agrIeul-
tnral land, and of forest and mine,
than Oregon. This State possesses IN
itself the diversified resources of ma
lion, aud with development is capable
disappearing millions OF people. That
population will come in time there is
no doubt, but in the meantime other
localities with their highly-colored lit
erature are endeavoring To attract the
dissatisfied farmer OF the East. With
out prompt advertising they are left in
ignorance of the characteristics of this
State.
The amount Of money spent in adj
vertising by the citizens of Portland
will soon bear It's fruit, and there will
be a large immigration next year. But
the work of scattering information
throughout the East shouid net stop
here. A permanent immigration agent
should be retained to scatter descrip-
tive matter where il will do the most
good. The indirect benefits aecruing
10 the State by a proper advertisement
ct our resources cannot be estimated
in dollars and cents, but rapid growth
oS populassoa will bring untold wealth
In its train, and our citizens viii be
benefited by the outlay.
