TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS.

We have fully determined to adopt
the strictly cash in advance system
for all subscriptions to the STAND
ARD, and hencefOrward will adhere
rigidly to the system. For several
years we have entered no new sub
scribers without advance payments,
but we have allowed subscriptions to
run over time for which they were
paid, and we find that the losses from
this practice aggregate from two hun
dred to three hundred dollars sper
year. From this date forward, all
subscriptions to the STANDARD will
be discontinued when the time for
which they are paid expires. This
is fair to all parties, and the only sys-
tenn by which newspaper can be
run without loss. On the first of jan
uary, 1891, every subscriber on our
list who is not paid to some time be-
You'd that date, will be cut off. The
date under your name on the margin
of the paper shows to what time your
subscription is paid. We request
every subscriber to examine this date,
and if it does not read to some time
in '9l, remit to us before the 1st OF
January, or your paper will be dis
confined. Don't delude yourself with
the idea that this is a mere threat,
and that yoT paper will come on as
usual. Nobody will get the STAND
ARD in 1891 without paying for it in
advance.

SKINS ON FIRE.
With Itching, Burning, Bleeding
Eczenas Instantly Relieved
by Cuticura Remedies.

Onr little son will be four years of age on
the 25th inst. In May 1885, he was attacked
with very painful breaking out of the skin.
We called in physician, who treated him
for about four weeks. The child received
little or no good from the treatment, as the
breaking out, supposed by the physician to
be hives in an aggravated form, became
larger in blotches, and more and more dis
tressing. We were frequently obliged to
get up in the night and rub him with soda
in water, strong liniments, etc. Finally, we
called other physicians, until no less than
six had attempted to cure him, all alike
failing, and the child steadily getting worse
and worse, until about the Goth of last July,
when we began to give him CUT1cuRA RE-
SOLVENT internally, and the CUTICURA and
CUTIcURA SOAP externally, and by the last
of August he was so nearly we'll that we
gave him only one dose of the REsoLvENT
about every second day for about ten days
longer. and he has meyer been troubled since
with the horrid malady. In all we used less
than one half of bottle of CUTICURA Re-
SOLVENT, little less than one box of CUT1-
cURA, and only one box of CUTICURA SOAP

AROUSE, YE!

There is much truth in the fol.
lowing, which is, in degree. ap-
plicable to Corvallis. There is in
our city drowsy element which
enterprise must drag from its
mossy habitues, very tenderly
sponge from it's eyes the accumu
lations from a Van Winkle sleep,
then accelerate its movements by
holding, in front of its bewlldered
gaze, a bag of shining twenty-dol-
lar peices. 1t seems necessary to
manage this element much in the
same way that the teamster in
duced the mule to advance-by
suspending a wisp of hay in front
Of the creature. 1t is the purpose
of the GAZETTE to arouse these
snoozers from their apathy so that
they may not be stumbling block
for enterprise. The Astorian says:
''Rapidly onward toward a glor
ious success many city is march
ing steadily along, because of the
live men within her borders who
act in unison On every movement
for the general good. Here In AS
toria where many are inclined to
sit quietly doing, because they
believe that the industrious people
of the world will of necessity
come here without urging, as we
have so many natural advantages,
the procession marching "toward
a glorious success" is moving
slower than if keeping time to
funeral march. Even with all our
natural advantages, without put
ting forward earnest effort, the do
minion of Satan will freeze hard
enough for a skating pond before
Astoria will become a big city.
Work and energy alone brings
success, either to all individual or
to a city"

FRUIT RAISING.

There is no doubt that the rails
| ing of wheat will continue to be,
for many years to come, the main
reliance for revenue of the agricul-
turalists of Oregon. But those
who have only small holdings
would do we'll to turn their atten-
ton to the raising of fruits of all
kinds. AS Is we'll known, there is
no part of the United States where
the soil and climate are so we'll
adapted to fruit culture as in the
Willamette valley, and in South
ern Oregon west OF the Cascade
mountains. All but tropical fruits
flourish well, and the yield is
something remarkable. There is
an immense market opening up
for fruits right in front of us, to
the eastward, which if we do not
make an effort to supply will be
occupied by the enterprising or-
chardists of California. Between
Oregon and Lake Michigan there
will soon be a population of from
five to ten millions that will be
mainly dependent upon other Sec
tions for their supplies of fruit, for
which millions Of dollars will be
expended. This field should be
supplied from Oregon, which has
the advantage over other sections
of the country in being situated
nearer to the market, and is of
course its natural source of supply.
Fruit-growing can therefore be
made a leading industry, next to
that of wheat, in this valley. The
demand that the cannery in Salem
has made in one short season of
an Indifferent yield is a revelation
to many people, and the result will
no doubt be the stimulation of an
industry that has been neglected of
late years. There should be five
hundred or thousand carloads of
fine fruit sent to Chicago during
the exhibition year, the effect of
which On the future prosperity of
Oregon would be incalculable.-

POSITIVE action has been taken
by the directors of the New York
Central railroad against the
Knights of Labor. Vice Presi-
dent Webb has addressed circu
lar to the various heads of depart
ments of the road requesting them
to inform their men that they can
not remain members of the
Knights of Labor and be in the
employ of the road. The reason
given is that the recent action of
that order has been such that the
officials of the road do not believe
a member of the Knights can be
of efficient service to the company,
and all men who desire to remain
in the order will not be kept in
the employ of the road.-Astor-

TAXATION without representa-

TAXATION without representa-
ton is an evil in any free country.
and representation without fair OF
equal taxation also merits con
demnation. The latter appears to
be the trouble with Oregon, and
some remedy should be applied at
the next session of our legislature.
There are hardly two officials III
the state who follow the same rule
in assessing the value of property.
We understand that some divide
the actual value by two, and some
by three, etc. This makes the
burden of taxation unequal in diff
ferent portions of the state. A
convention of assessors might
formulate some plan to be adopted
by the legislature which would
equalize matters in this regard,
and be perfectly satisfactory to tax
payers. We have no doubt the
assessors attempt to do what is
right; but until uniform rule is
adopted there is certain to be in
equality.-Times-M -Mountaineer.

pure blood. CUIICURA REMEDIES are abso-
lutely pure, and may be used from infancy
to age, from pimples to scrofnla.

FROM tnc Cu1co8O netUtus
Joseph Murphy, the Irish comedian,
who is now playing over at the Hay market,
IL an enthusiastic angler, and never misses
an opportunity TO 60 on q fishing trip.
Even now he II looking forward TO the
fine times be will havc next summer with
the rod and reel. He tells some good hsh
stories, among them one which In particu-
larly good. One day some time ago he
went out on fishing excursion with
friend who was full of bright ideas In the
angling line. As the two paused at an
inviting spot and prepared To cast, one OF
Murphy's friends bright ideas struck him.
Picking up one Of pile Of shingles lying
on the bank he tied line around It, put on
a hook, which he baited with live frog,
and throw II into the water. The shiDgle
floated on the surface of the water.
"Now, joe" said MurplIy's friend, III a
big fish bites no will try TO go TO the bottom
amer he finds himself hooked, and the
shingles full broadside will offer such re-
sistance that he will be held where no is:
We can set number of these lines ana
then go further along and fish for perch;
When we come back we will probably hnd
big catch" This struck the comedian a.
n great idea, and they set out eighteen o.
these shingle lines before they lcft the spot.
Then they went along and had great luck
in catching perch. "But what do you sup
pose we found when we returned TO ouI
traps ?" Murphy asks, when he reaches thii
point in the story. The listeners all make
big fish giesses, and then Murphy says
mo; we found our eighteen frogs calmly
amusing themselves on eighteen shingles
