Many of our machines have run more
than twenty years without repairs, other
than needles. With proper care they
never wear out. and seldom need repair.
We have built sewing machines for
more than forty years and have constantly
improved them. We build our machines
on honor, and they are recognized every

WAGoN ROAD CASE DECIDED.

This morning, in the United
States circuit court, Judge Gilbert
decided the celebrated case of the
United States against the Will
lamette Valley & Cascade Noun
tain Wagon Road company in ia
vor of the defendants. The bone
OF contention in this case was about
100000 acres OF land granted by
congress to the company for build
ing the road. The government
claimed that the company
had never completed the road,
and that it should revert. The
court held that the west end of the
road was completed within the
limit expressed in the act. and
since the suit was commenced the
remainder had been finished. The
certificates issued by the governor
at the time the work was done
could not be called into question,
as there was no evidence showing
fraud i'll any respect. 1t was also
decided that Alex WE'LL and David
Colin, the present owners of the
land, had purchased it in good faith
and that the government is estop-
ped.-Telegram.

CARDINAL GIBBONS has written a
letter in which he favors the
opening of the worlds fair on Sun
days. 1t is admirably to the point:
The Sunday closing of this specta-
Gle would be very unfortunate for
many thousands of our country
men, who would be tempted to
spend the day in dissipation. In
their name | would favor the open
iLg of the fair on Sunday after
noon to evening, with the provi-
sion that all machinery should be
stopped and all mechanical and
laboring work that will not be ur-
gently necessary should cease. In
this do not see any desecration
of the holiness of the day; on the
contrary, those who will visit the
fair on these days will be inclined
to raise their minds and hearts to
Him who inspired men who pro-
duce such marvellous things.

SHUT THE GATES.

United States Senator Chandler,
of the senate committee on lmml-
grafton, proposes that congress
shall pass law at the first oppor
tunity suspending immigration, ex-
cept from Pan-American countries,
for one year from the 1st of next
March.
This is an excellent proposition,
which will stop all immigration un-
til the cholera has died out in Eu-
rope and we can fix on the perma-
nent immigration policy we wish
TO adopt. The senate immigration
committee proposition excluding
all. immigrants except visitors, for
one year, would be practically
an effective national quarantine
against the cholera, without which
our worlds fair would probably be
Stunned by the world.
The American worl<ingman we
do not believe will enjoy free trade
in the products of cheap labor, and
we are certain he will not enjoy
free immigration of cheap foreign
labor, like the Huns, Poles and
Italians, with which we are at
present inundated. The adoption
of Senator Chandler's plan would
exclude at least million of that
class and to this extent prevent
the competition in the labor mar
ket from increasing.
The steamship companies and
railroads will fight this exclusion
measure, and some democratic
free trade papers are already be-
ginning to oppose it. The scheme
to cheaper American labor by the
introduction of cheap free goods
will not be complete unless asso-
ciated with free immigration of
the foreign cheap labor that makes
the foreign cheap goods.-P. I.

The bid for the construction

The bid for the construction of
the locks at the Cascades has been
accepted by the secretary of war,
and it only remains for the con-
tractors to file bonds in the re-
quired amount for work to begin.
This is the consummatlon ear
nestiy desired by the producers Of
eastern Oregon for many years,
and means that the Columbia
river will be an open highway to
the sea in few years. The first
work was done on the, locks in
1876, and since that time, under
the control of the war department,
progress has been slow.

THE ladies who are getting up
the children's building Tor the
worlds fair in Chicago, were
much troubled for a time by the
fact that at a similar building at
the Paris exposition over 5000
children were LETT by parents who
never came back for them again
and who took that means OF
getting rid OF them. The Chicago
ladies, however, have now ar
ranged with a benevolent society
to take all the foundlings that
may be left on their hands and
will go ahead with the work.
People desiring miscellaneous
assortment OF babies can probably

from, by applying during the fair.

A PAPER WORTH HAVING.


/ The old saying that nothing succeeds
like success, is well illustrltei by the ca.
reer of the Rural Northwest. which was
founded in Portland, Oregon, a little over a
year ago. and has already established itself
as the leading agricultural paper of the Pa.
ciic northwest It is hardly necessary to
say that the success of this paper is simply
the result of merit. It is no cheap concern
made up of stereotype plates and stale clip
pings, but is bright, crisp and clear, filed
with original matter which hits the condi-
tions that exist in the Pacific northwest.
Among fruit overs it Is an especial favor-
ite, as it makes horticulture leading fea-
ture. and gives the best and fullest reports
published of he meetings of the state hortl-
cultural societies of Oregon and Washing
ton, and includes among its regular contrib
utors in this department such men as Prof.
Lake, of the Washington agricultural col
lege; Prof. Washburn, of the Oregon agri
cult raj college. A. T. Hawley and others
of eminent ability. The dairy department
is maintained with no less vigor, as indI.
Gated by the fact that its editor. II NJ VIII
hanson, holds the position of secretary OF
the of the Oregon State Dairy Association.
Live stock and poultry are not neglecte ],
nd progressive agriculture is the spirit
which animates the general management OF
the paper.
Among special features are its depart
ments devoted to the '.Home Circle" and
'tAmong the Farmers" The latter depart
mept is very popular and special feature
with this paper.
One of the peculiar merits of the Rural
Northwest is that everything is treated
from the practical standpoint o. the produ-.
Ger. This handsome Is page paper, pub
Hshed twice month, is a paper we'll worth
its subscription price of one dollar per
year, and one that every farmer, trrlt-
grower and dairyinan should have and keep.
1t gives us pleasure to. Announce that we
have made arragements ny which we are
able to efferi it as a premium to all new sub
scyihers paying us for. one year in advance
We Z. uld secure someo Of the Eastein farm
papees sta-auch less cost to ourselves, but
realize the fact that for this section the
cheap class of Eastern agricultural papers
are scarcely worth having, and not to be
compared in value with the Rural North
west.

THB number of criminals and
lunatics incarcerated in the pub
lie correctory institutions OF Eu-
rope and the United States, and
their rapidly increasing numbers,
prove jncontestibly that there is
q grave defect in what we, for
q more fitting term, label "civili-
cation" Our crop of murders
in the year of grace 1891 was
1906, and tile proportion of insane
to the population keep pace with
the increase ofmurderers. In 1850
there was one lunatic to 146S,
but in 1850 the ratio was one to
CSC, AN increase of more than 100
per cent. in 30 years. The pro
portion of lunatics is still rapidly
growing both in America and Eu-
rope. Modern education and its
non-commlttant effects on individ-
uals appear to be the fundamental
cause of the mental and moral de-
generacy of which criminality
aud insanity are the symptoms.
1t has been noticed that in Italy
where the population are most ig
norant, the education of to-day,
generally speaking, does not foster
the. religious sentiment, and
where this prop and stay has
been taken away from a mind
not robust enough 10 stand on its
own pins, the subject either dives
into dissipation or crime, or both,
or becomes an idiot. There are,
Of course, other causes for both
criminality and idiocy, as the
eagerness, for wealth, the oppres-
sion. Of the poor by the pampered
rich, the inequalities of life's bur-
dens, the laxness and injustice of
law: trashy, and immoral literature,
vice, and bad whisky.-Eugene

with their success at the late cleo

Cleveland for third term in the

such foolish talk did more harm

with his utter defeat in 1880,
after one term had inters ened
since his occupancy of the presi-

The Times thinks the CITY cou]

The Times thinks the city coun-
Gil acted too hastily in purchasing
the water works, and they should
have waited a month or more to
give the people a chance to discuss
the matter. Some of our citizens,
perhaps, would like to discuss the
matter indefinitely. The question
has been presented to the public
and argued from every standpoint,
through the local press for the past
two years. And at the special
election last fall was carried by a
good majority in favor of bonding
the city for the purchase Of water
works. And we can see no special
reason why the council should de-
lay action longer, one way or the
other, in the matter. Now that
the city has made the purchase, it
is hoped that before another year
we may see water service greatly
improved under the city's manage
ment.
