OREGON's SHOWING
AT CHICAGO
NEXT YEAR

Remains in doubt, but there
is no question about the
PORTLAND INDUSTRIAL Ex-
pos1TIoN-which opens Sep
tember 21st and closes October
22d, being the best Exposition
ever held on the Pacific Coast.
So far as Oregon is concerned
it will be the forerunner of the
Exposition at Chicago in
1898. The principal attrac-
tions are the magnificent
American Band of Providence,
r. I. An art collection
valued at $35O,OO0, and en-
bracing some of the greatest
pictures owned in the United
States. Immense Horticult-
ural and Agricultural exhibits,
the result of the combined
efforts of almost every county
in the state. A mineral ex-
hibit exceeding all former
years. A Stock Department
showing tremendous progress,
To these are added a larger
number of exhibits than ever
before; including a magnifi-
cent electrical display under
the combined Thomson-Hous-
ton and Edison Companies.
All manufactures in full oper-
alton. Government models
of Battle Ships. The wonder
full Hall of Mystery. The
marvellous Little World, the
product of a mechanical
genius; all interspersed by
novelties incident to the pop
ular special days. Every
thing new and nothing dead
Greatly reduced rates on al
transportation lines.

RainLma,irr hr raith. !.

Some forty years ago, On q cloudless
Sabbath morning, the president of Ober-
lin college, Professor Phinney, walked
briskly to the chapel there had been a
distressing drought-and began the ser
vice with an extremely fervent prayer
for rain. The prayer was long, and be-
fore it was finished the skies began to
darken, and almost before the congre-
CATION was dismissed a copious rain be-
gan to fall. The suggestive fact in this
relation is that President Phinney. had
been observed. during the morning to
give very watchful attention TO the ba-
rometer. r.-H. Chandler IN Science.

Rain without Clouds.

We have it on the authority of Sir j.
G. Ross that in. the south Atlantic it
rained on one occasion for over an hour
when, the sky was entirely free from
clouds. In the Mauritius and other

not a rare occurrence; but in Europe it
is, and the greatest known length of its
duration was ten minutes at CONSTANT

! WASHINGTON, Aug. @ The corn
miifee on ways and means, through
McAliIlen, made a unanimous re
port adverse to the sub treasury
bill. The report is long document
and discusses all phrases Of the
question In comprehensive style.
1t defers the question Of constitu-
tionality, and proceeds to state oh
-ctions. These are briefly: II there
shodld be reduction In the value of
goods after they are stored below 80
per cent. the government would
lose; Y the value increased, the gov
ernmept would get none of the
profits. The Jurisdiction Of the
federal courts would be increased so
rs to make them instruments of OPP
preston to the people. The bill
tends strongly towards centraliza-
tim, AMI interferes with Industrial
freedom Great fluctuation in tb,
currency would follow its enact
ment. The operations of the bill
would not be confined to farmers.
but iron men, lumber meu, and |
manufacturers generally, would |
complain until the government fix
"a the limit to possible loss at 20
per cent. to them, and soon the
government would be usurpiDg the
Of the citizens and attend

No provision is made for the re-

e issued under the bill, and banks q

IN of any part of the governments t

on, and would be unjust to the +
eorer AMI other toilers. People Il
lving a particular kind of property t
