These fares mean to Portland and return,
and are figured up to 81 miles from Portland.
Kindly understand, these amounts for fares
will be deducted from your purchase. The
goods will be delivered, freight prepaid, to
your nearest railroad station, and the price
of these goods will be from 80 to 80 per cent
less than regular prices.
To those living out of town or at distance
from Portland, here is an excellent opportun-
ity offered you. Every dry goods man will
welcome you, every clothing man will be
prepared for you and will undoubtedly make
you low prices, the hatters, furriers and
gents furnishers will be delighted to meet
you and all will doubtless place their goods
at temptation figures for this occasion; even
the hotel man will greet you with warm
welcome, so that your visit to Portland will
not only be one of profit but of pleasure.
1t would be unfair to the Portland citizens
to pay fares to out-of-town residents and
charge them the same price for goods, there
fore we shall give present of Rug or some
other article, according to the amount of the
purchase, which will be in value about the
ne as the railroad fares.

A LAZY SERMON.
Preached by Justice Westfau TO Two
Past Young Drivers.

Preached by Justice Westfau TO Two
Fast Young Drivers.
HIS Honor did not tell the boys
whether he was hard-shell Baptist or
an Episcopalian, but there was such an
air of moral orthodoxy about his SER
mon that everybody was sorry when il
came time for the benediction.
William Waters and George II. Lewis
were arrested Sunday 10y Humane
Agent Wykes for fast driving near the
lake. The day was hot day, and
the oifense was an aggravated one. The
young men drove at full gallop from
the dummy line TO Frank Carrolls, a
distance of about a mile and a half.
They mad nothing to say for themselves.
and His Honor gave them a sermon
that they Will not soon forget, and
backed 1t up with mnemonjc help of
1915 each. He said that ne was usually
very severe upon the abuses of dumb
hrutes for which had very tender
feeling. The young men took their
lecture with much seriousness, and
will profit by the episode.

Another Vigorous Protest Against Moving
Old Buildings.
To the Editor OF the TELEGRsv-HERALD:
| am pleased to notice that you have
several times called attention through
your valuable paper to the matter of
moving old buildings, and especially to
the Botsford building. If there is any
one thing more than another that the
citizens on the hill, especially those on
North Lafayette and Eastern Crescent
ave, have to be proud of, il is their
beautiful shade trees, and It is a shame
that they should be ruined or damaged
Us IN tins case. It takes generation
TO grow them, and their value is far
greater than the building in question.
j. itnot time the council put stop to
such operations!

It is a Fact.

General Clarkson is practical newspaper man; he appreciates the power and far-reaching infu- ence of the press he knows good newspaper from poor one, an in- fuental from weak journal. Gen Clarkson, last Saturday night at the American club banquet at Pitts burg, responded to the toast. "The Republican Press" and he made a truthful response by arraying facts and figures to show that the repub- lIcan press is decaying institution while the democratic press has al- ready become q great tower of strength and is rapidly attracting republicans in search of truth.
 He pointed to the fact that the democratic press of the country generally was superior to the re- publican press had wider circu- lation and was exercising a much greater influence on the public mind, all of which is true, and the cause of this is clear. The demo- cratic press of the country is allied to the interests of the masses, while the republican press, as a rule, is more nearly allied to the corporate and centralized wealth in its every form. AS an illustration the tariff barons find their sole support in the republican press.
 This fact is becoming we'll un- derstood by the great mass of the people, hence the teachings of the democratic press is more eagerly sought, which causes the wider cir culation of these journals.
 The secret of the ascendency of the democratice press in the United States over the republican is be- cause it is more closely allied to government of and by the people than is its political rival. This is the secret of the great success of the New York World, the St. Louis Republic, the San Francisco Exam ;ner and host of others of the democratic press.-Star.

Final County News.

A gentleman from Florence call ed on the Star yesterday and gave it the following interesting infOr
 nation: The reservior of the Flor ence Canal Company, which is now nearing completion covers an area of 1700 acres with an average depth of 12 feet. The main levee is A. 900 feet in length with width of 125 feet, top and bottom. Two hundred hands are employed on it with 15O teams. The outlet for waste water is composed of brick masonry. The reservior is fed from the river by a canal 26 miles long with an average width of 30 feet at bottom. The Canal from the res ervoir for conducting the water to be used for irrigation purposes is twenty miles in length and numer- ous laterals run in all directions.
 The work on the reservior has been conducted by Messrs. Macrit- chic & Nicol, contractors from the east, who anticipate having this great undertaking completed by June 1, 1890. The cost of the res ervior alone amounts to $140,000.
 At Florence the new court house is in course of construction. It is brick building and will cost the county $30,000 when completed. Messrs Dorran & Adams are the contractors.
 As the county seat is now an es- tablished fact people will commence building new stores and residences and Florence will soon have many accessions to her inhabitants. A large new hotel will be commenced in the near future.-Tucson Star.

The Gloves Did It.

Two weli-dressed and respectable men called upon the proprietor of a gymnasium the other day and one of them remarked:
 "We have dispute. We think the best way to settle it is with the gloves. Can we engage your rooms for half an hour?"
 "You can."
 "And I want you to see fair play" said the second. I'm going to give that man the worst licking he ever got"
 "And if don't punch your head off then I hope to be called a wo- man !" replied the other.
 They were sent to separate rooms to prepare, the gloves were made ready, and. after considerable hesi- tation on the part of both, they were brought face to face with the gloves on. They stood for a min ute or two, and one finally made a move and slipped. The other one jumped clean out of the ring at this, and the first had no sooner recov- cred himself than he jumped out on the other side.
 The sgymnasium man tried to coax them back, but they wouldn't have it that way, but got together, shook hands, and the first said:
 "Jim, I apologize for calling you liar"
 "And I apologize for calling you a thief" added the second.
 And they went out together to take a drink and be friends forever more.-Detroit Free Press.

If America has sometimes seem- ed to be open to the charge of neg lecting the more scientific side of medicine and medical education, that reproach is in fair way to be removed. Hardly month passes but we hear of fresh foundations of laboratories and chairs. At the present time large new laboratory is in course of erection as an ex- tension of the accommodation al- roady provided in the Horvard Med ical School. Boston, and the Uni versitY of Pennsylvania, having ob- toined an endowment fund of $2OO,- 900 for the department of hygiene. is about to erect a hygienic labora- tory at a cost of $50,0OO.- British Medical Journal.
