FIFTY TE.A RS AGO.

If some of the American states
men who, forty or fifty years ago
expressed their ideas concerning
the western portion of the United
States, could visit this great
country to-day. they would declare
that they had reference to some
country still farther west, says an
ex. Even when Bell represented
the territory of California in con-
gress, in a debate in the house he
said there was not a foot of land
in that territory which could ever
be used for agricultural purposes.
In the senate of the United
States, when Hon. Thomas H.
Benton was introducing and urg
ing the adoption ofsome measures
for territorial government for
Oregon, Daniel Webster declared
that it swas all nonsense to organ
ize that territory, as it was so far
off it could never be governed by
the United States; and if it was
organized into a territory and
elected a delegate to congress, he
could not reach Washington until
a year after the expiration of his
term, as he would have to come
around by Behring sea, Baffin's
bay and Davis straits, or south,
around Cape Horn"
It is interesting to note what
half a century has done for these
coast states. All these impossi-
bilities have been overcome, and
the Pacific coast stands forth now
second to no section of the United
States in prosperity. And what
is better, we have just begun grow
ing. Watch out for us at the ex-
piration of the next half century.

HOW TO INVEST.

The laws of finance and banking
are almost as we'll established as the
laws of nature. In either case their
violation is followed by disastrous
consequences. The greater the inter-
est the more perilous the risk to cap
ital. An expose has been made of
the operations of the so-called national
building and loan associations, which
discloses an alarming state of affairs.
Under alluring promises of 20 to 25
per cent interest, thousands of in
vestors have actually ended in paying
that rate for the privilege of making
deposits.
One rule can be safely followed:
Never deal with any agent of an in
surance company, banking concern, Or
loan association who asserts the pre-
posterous proposition that you will re-
eeive in return fabulous rate of in
terest. 1t can not be done. Men
who have made life study of finance
are content to loan their capital at
very low rate.
Building and loan associations when
properly conducted are excellent insti-
tutions, and encourage in the indus
trial classes ideas of thrift and econ
omy. But they should be conducted
at home and by home officers. Such
a system retains capital instead of
draining the country, and builds up
cities of homes. Such institutions,
when properly handled, as they
nearly always are, have never failed.
And there is another mode of in
vestment that is even better and safer
than this-real estate. Laboring men
who buy town lots or farm property,
making use of ordinary judgment, al
most invariably reap rich reward.
Every laborer and artisan in this city
ought to DO two things as speedily as
possible: Insure his life in some one
Of the solid and long-established COM
panies and buy town lot with view
to some day making his home thereon.
And then when itinerant agents, often
unscruplous and plausible, come along
he will not be duped into false ven
ture. A pity it is that such men can
take advantage or a mans best i'm
pulses to rob him. In comparison
with them the gambler becomes an
honorable gentleman, for he thrives
on mans cupidity, while fellows of the
former ilk prey upon the manly i'm
pulses of thrift and home building.

THE CHAMBER OF TORTURE

Is the apartment to which the unhappy
sufferer from iniamitory rheumatism is
confined. If, ere the crisis of pain is reach.
ed, that fine preventive, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, is used by persons of a
rheumatic tendency, much unnecessary suf-
fering is avoided. Nervines, anodynes and
sedatives, while having none but a specific

can produce no lasting effect upon rheuma-
tism, because they have no power to elimin-
ate from the blood the rheumatic virus
H"stetter's Stomach Bittets does this, and
checks at the outset disease which, If al
lowed to gain headway, it is next to impos.
sible to dislodge or to do more than relieve.
Rheumatism, it should be remembered, is
disease with fatal tendency from its prone
ness to attack the heart. A resort to the

SENSATION IN CORVALLIS"

aid, of yesterday morning. For fur
ther particulars enquire of the parties
lnterested.-ED.
"Corvallis, Oct. 3O.-A sensation
has developed at farm near this city,
which has led to warrants being issued
for the arrest of Rube Kiger and his
hired man on charge o. seduction.
The story told your correspondent is
that Miss Cakes, young girl aged Is,
whose parents live at Monroe, has been
employed at Kigers to do bousework.
A short time ago it became known
that she was about to become a
mother, when the hired man was in
duced to agree to marry her.
Her father, on visiting the girl, how
ever, became acquainted with the facts
in the case, and took tie girl home
and swore out warrants for both the
men, the girl having confessed to
criminal intimacy with Kiger and the
latter's scheme to marry her to the
hired man."

Land in Tacoma is very high,
ranging in price from $500 to
$50, 900 per lot. No lot is offered
for sale within the city for less
than 81, 500. Nearly all of the
lots are 25 by 120 feet. The
country extending back, probably
four miles, is all divided into city
lots which sell from $500 to 81 900
per lot. Not a foot of land can
be bought on the point of land on
which Tacoma is situated for less
than $500 per acre, and out at
American lake, twelve miles dis
tant, they ask $1,000 an acre for
land. Fortunes have been made
in these lands within the last few
years. To illustrate, one man has
a tract of 100 acres which he OBJ
tanned from the government as a
homestead, not paying a cent for
it, and now he refuses 5000 per
acre, or $4,000 for the tract, and
this change of values has occurred
within the last seven years. There
are residents in Tacoma, who five
years ago were poor men, now
worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars, all acquired through the
increased value oflands.
