An exchange says that the aver
age man prefers the society of a
pure woman to that of a social out
cast, but when the former is denied
che takes the latter rather than be
deprived of any society" This is
putting a very low estimate on the
average man. Aside from that it
is nonsensieal; No average man
need be deprived of the society of
pure women. The man who, wish
ing the acquaintance of pure wo-
men Of his own position in life, can
not obtain it, is not up to the aver
age. He is chump.

The Pineviile News says: Thous-
ands of acres of the best agricultu-
raj lands IN the web-foot country
that have been titled are lying idle
and growing up in weeds. They
were mortgaged lands. Their or
iginal owners nortgaged them, and
b,ing unable to meet the indebted
ness thus incurred by the produe-
ton and sale of cereal crops, they
suffered the inevitable Kansas re.
sult-a foreclosure. And then
they came to eastern Oregon, where
they have since prospered. The
Willamette valley is doubtless one
of the agricultural regions on the
face of the earth, but it is heavily
mortgaged all the same, and in
that respect its situation is very
much akin TO the best agricultural
districts in the middle west.
In writing the above the News
editor either didn't dnow what he
was talking about or else was de-
Iliberately nisrepresenting the mat
ter. In the first place the land is
not s'lying idle and growing up in
weeds" and this region shows up as
light an Indebtedness as any other
part of Oregon. In Linn county
a few years ago five loan companies
held mortgages on farms amount
ing to about 5000 600. Now they
only carry about 800 600 in that
county. That don't look much as
though the farmers were becoming
bankrupt.-Union City Pilot.

SOdaVille

thNsertlSeincu1
Sodaville is located twenty miles
southeast of Albany, five miles south
of lebanon and twelve miles west of
Sweet Home, in the foot hills of the
Cascades where shade trees, grass aud
flowers flourish iii abundance. Di-
reetly ON the east, the timbered hills
rear their heads far above the village,
affarding game of many kinds al
abundance and shady walks for tour
lists and health seekers through
pleasant woods, while on the west,
lies the broad expanse of The great
Willamette valley, unbroken by any
rise of land for more than forty miles,
with Albany dimly outlined twenty
miles ;twly. Sodaville can be cl;ssed
as mountain or valley town, as her
limits are III both.
Sodavile is the most accessible
health resort in the state, being only
five miles from the Lebanon terminus
of the S. z. K. r. and in less than
communication with said road by rail
road or meter line. The road from
Lebanon to Sodaville is level and first
class, passing between finely cultivat-
ed grain and fruit farnls and the
tourists and health seeker enjoys u
pleasant ride of 10 minutes ON the
'.s5odaville Hack which meets every
in-eoming train. A long and tedious
journey of seeking health resort is
thus avoided and one can leave his
home ut rsost any point in the William
ette valley and reach his destination
the same day. Invaiids find this
much pleasanter than to be driven over
long and rough mountain roads.
Sodaville consists of about twenty
five dweIlidg houses, one general mer-
chandise store, one drug store, one
butcher, ,blksmih, two hotels, ,one livery
stable aud one we'll furnished school
house. In addition to this, there ar.
under construction, two business
houses on The principal street, . new
church house, large wing to the
school house and several dwellings.
There are no saloons and billiard halls
in this torn, and as the town has "a
charter and city officers it is a quiet
and peaceful health resort, and fully
meets the wants of those who, by the
excessive work and care of the year,
seek quiet aud heaIthful retreat for
few weeks outing.

THE PUBLIC DEBT STATEMENT.
Secretary Foster Explains Why the New
Form Was Adopted.

WAsHISGToS CITY, July Am explanation OF
the change in the form OF the debt statement is
sued yesterday, and the reason therefor, is made
by the secretary of the treasury. He called at
tention to certain changes in the monthly debt
statement issued for June, 1891, and the daily
statement requiring the showing of an increase
or decrease of the public debt. Under this form
il happened that on several occasions when
large purchases OF bonds were made, the state
ment following would show an increase of the
public debt, where reduction had really been
affected. This in owing to the fact that the prn-
cipal and premium paid for the bonds reduced
the cash on hand beyond the amount of the
bonds actually redeemed The secretary has
concluded to separate the statement of the debt
from the statement of cash in the treasury. His
statement of cash ON hand viii show an increase
from month to month, and this statement will
be part of the form adopted In making up the
new statement in the treasury files it will show
the different kinds of mony included in the to-
tai. Against this total will be stated the cash
liabilities. Heretofore the amount on deposit
in national banks, and fractional silver coin on
hand, has been deducted. He thinks there is
no good reason why ii should ever have been
done. Treasurer Nebecker issued q statement of
assets and liabilities this morning under the
new form adopted by the department The to-
tai assets are stated at 600 and the total
liabilities at s5, 249 900 leaving balance of s5S,
$4,000.
AT the cabinet meeting today it was decided
to extend the a. per cent bonds at per cent
A statement prepared at the treasury depart
ment shows that there was net decrease of
A,2lo,954 in circulation during the month of
June and a net decrease of s7,0S6.504 in money
