Bids Them Welcome.

WOAOVAA49s
The following is the address Of welcome
Of w. G. Pomeroy to the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor at its late meeting in
Chicago:
We would wish to bid you Welcome 10 q
prosperous city, but truth will mot justify
the assertion. Things are here a. they are,
but not "a they should be.
In the name Of 1O0, 900 idle men I bid you
welcome. In the name of toll l Welcome
you within the gates Of the mistress Of the
inland seas, where the palace shines bright
in the snte-C Christmas tide and the hOvel
holds not a fsgot to warm its freezing ten
ants. In the name Of those sdiROes erected
to the glory of God, but whose doors at
night are tightly closed to the freezing poor.
In the name Of those ministers.w who fstten
from the vineyards of God, meanwhile for
getting that Gods children are hungry and
have no place to lay their heads. In the
name of the fashionable congregation Of
the fashionable church in the fashionable
suburb, where the palace, filed with
warmth within, drops from the caves the
melting SHOWS upon the frozen hOvsl where
poverty hides les hsggsrd soul on She very
threshold Of hypocrisy.
In the name Of these things bid you well
come.
In the name Of the child slave whose
young life is sacrificed on the altar of greed
bid you Welcome. In the name Of the
sesmstress in the sweaters den who perila
honor TO toll for bread, / bid you Welcome.
In the name Of the hsggard sweater, him.
self a victim of greed, bid you Welcome.
In the name of the pillars Of the sweating
systems, millionaires and deaOOns, whose
souls are endangered by avsPiOe for gold, ]
bid you Welcome.
In the name of the wage slave whose
sweat Of blood is coined into golden duOata
in the mint of mammOn, l welcome you
here. In the name of our hospitals filled
with homeless manned; in the name Of our
insane asylums filed with paupsrs crazed
by care and crime; in the name Of our poor
houses filed to overAowinG in land OF
plenty; in the name Of our morgue and itG
outOast unknown dead; in the name Of that
populous suburb, the potter's field, and itl
countless pauper'S grsVeS-in the name Of
all these ! bid you Welcome!
In the name Of that homeless Wanderel
in this desert Of stone and steel; that way
fsrer whose wol6sh hunger hounds him ever
onward, whose sleepless eyes wildly sseh
shelter and slumber, whose hopeless hear
lies laden in his bosom, whose blank des.
pair grows darker and darker everV hour
whose brain grows faint for want Of food
whose shivering, shrinking form grows siCl
at the sight Of his own shPunken shadow
whose ambition is dead, whose hope iS dead
whose heart is dead, whose soul is dead
whose dismal past is background TO fu

grave; in short, that necessary product G.
American freedom and prosperity - th'
American tramp. In his name and in CHI

"TO the Bond and Stock Holders and Creditors Of
the At0htSOn. Topeka & SGDt0 BE Railroad
Company and System:
"BosToN, MASS, December 23.-The
directors Of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe and the San Francisco Railroad
company, comprising, with their Guxil-
iGry and controlled lines, the system Of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe COM
pRny, are compelled to announce that
the sudden termination during the cur
rent week Of pending negotiations for
financial relief, has caused temporary
embarrassment to the company and will
prevent further payments Of borrowed
money now due and interest coupons Of
the several companies maturing January
]. 1894, proximo, OF all bonds or funded
debt and guaranteed obligations, in
cluding the coupons Of the general
mortgage bonds Of the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe Railroad company and Of
the st. Louis and San Francisco Rail
way company. The continuing financial
depression in America and Europe, with
COincidsnt shrinkRge in market prices
Of securities owned by the company and
used AZ collateral, has brought about an
enforced reduction Of the floating debt,
causing excessive demands upon the
cash available from net earnings for net
interest requirements.
"Under these circumstances it becomes
the duty Of the directors to take such
steps as may best conserve and protect
the interests Of the company, their bond
and stock holders and creditors and pre-.
vent the disintegrRtion Of the railroad
system.
ain view Of the comparatively small
and temporary relief required in the
present emergency, considering the mag
nitude Of the railway system involved,
its earning power and resources, sstisfac-
cory physical condition and working or
ganiEstion, which relief cannot speedily
be secured in the present depressed con.
ditiOn Of financial affairs generally, the
directors believe that the protection Of
the courts should be invoked and the
executive and legal officers Of the several
companies have been authorized and in.
structed not to resist application for re-
ceiveFs, but to make answer setting
forth the facts and admitting the situs-
tion and temporary embarrassment Of
the company.
~The Atchison system, as q whole, in.
cluding the st. Louis and San Francisco
railway and all other auxiliary lines,
comprising 9,845 miles Of railroad, is
amply able, even under the present Rd-
veEse conditions, to earn a safe balance
over its fixed charges IL relieved from
floating debt, which is not greater at
Ehig time than eighteen mo lths ago.
The changed financial conditions and
lower prices Of securities owned by the
company and used a. collateral has
brought about the situation now re-
corded.
"The obligations Of che company are
az follows: Time notes and loans on
collateral, due December, 1893, to June,

\ CORVALLIS BANK BURSTS.
The Bank of Hamilton. Job 4
Co. Closes,

Quite ripple Of excitement was
caused iii local financial circles last
Saturday by the announcement of
the closing of the banks of uamil-
ton, Job & Co., at Corvallis and
Naquina. The closing of the bank
was not precipitated by a run upon
the bank but was closed for the
reason, SO assigned that they had
not enough money to pay deposi-
tors At six o'clock Friday even
ing a suit was filed in the district
court at Corvallis by B. X. Job VS..
Zephin Job to dissolve the partner
ship existing between them. The
complaint alleges that owing TO the
condition Of the money market the
firm has been compelled to suspend
business, for lack Of money and
asks for a receiver TO wind up their
business. The assets OF the firm
are about Sa5o,ooo aud consists
principally ofrcal estate situatliiu
Benton county and elswhere, bills
receivable and cash ON hand, OF
the latter there is only about SIS
600. The liabilities are about
100000 of which SI75,ooo are in
deposits. BY this it will be seen
that at the present time the de
poSitors will realize very little on
their deposits, The deposi,ors are
scattered all over Benton and Linz
coin counties. 1t is rumored that
the treasurer of Benton county had
10000 on deposit at the bank in
Corvallis. The treasurer of I lincoln
county had about S575 on deposit
at Naquina while'SheriffLandis had
about $500 i'll drafts and checks
against the banking firm.

WHAT An EDITOR READS.

A novelist and editor whose name
is a household word in America and
Europe, recently remarked, as. a
friend found him amid a pile OF
newspapers, "rhe only periodical
I read through is The Youths Com
panion-and l read that through
every week" "Foryour children,
| suppose, said his visitor. mo,
for myself, was the reply. 1t
is a wonderful paper"
The announcements of The
Youths Companion for r8o3 make
this story easily credible. Seldom
if ever has ii presented 50 various a
programme Of articles and stories,
or so striking a.list of eminent con
tributors. 1t never ceases to be a
young peoples paper; but it long
since llted ltseli TO be also a most
versatile, instructive and facinating
paper for all the family. One Of
the marked features this coming
year is the appearance Of seven
successful from which the famous
prizes Of S6;5oo were awarded. No
less than 2,963 stories competed for
these prizes. The regular every
day stories Of The Companion sill

The impression seems to prevail
quite generally that one don't have
to work his road tax unless he
wants to, and a good many don t
want to. The idea is liable to
prove somewhat costly to those
who disregard the road supervisor S
notice to work the roads. Accord
ing to a test case made by Linn
county last year a man not other
wise exempt must either pay his
road tax in money work it out or
go 10 jail. We understand that the
various supervisors Of Lincoln
county are instructed to either col
lect work or moncy from all persons
liable in their district, and in case a
party refuses to do either they will
be promptly prose uted.

Carriage Factory in Trouble

Six attachments, aggregating
about S33, 500 have been served on
the Corvallis carriage works at
Corvallis. The attachments have
been run by St. Louis and Portland
parties for material furnished. 1t
is understood that the factory will
resume work and use up material
on hand, bnt nothing further than
that can be ascertained. The prop
erty will probably pass principally
into. Portland parties hands and
the works will ultimately be remov-
ed TO that city. This is a serious
blow to Corvallis.

l will once more endeavor to-
write you about the happenings on
Big Elk Perhaps the most not
able thing the past week was the
party at w. w, January's. About
dark quite a crowd having collected,
the parlor was cleared of all super
fluous furniture and the fun begun.
| Quite a nice time was had until
about midnight playing different
games, in which all the girls and
most all of the boys were kissed.
Then the real fun begun, the candy
was pronounced just right and was
hastily taken off the stove and
poured into saucers and plates to
cool, Alas! someone's judgement
was at fault, the mixture was not
sufficiently cooked, after half an
hour of patient waiting we attacked
it but most of us withdrew defeated
after a stubborn contest in which
the candy evidently had the best of
it, it was most too thin and sticky,
we had resource to the butter plate
and hour chest but 10 no avail, il
stuck yet, our fingers were covered
all over and stuck together with the
sweet stuff. Finally after many
efforts we succeeded in rolling and
washing it from our hands and were
then ready for new business. After
a few more games we separated and
went our different ways we'll satis-
fled with our evenings entertain-
ment, almost forgot to mention
the excellent pie and cake which
our hostess, Mrs January, furnish
ed for our re(reshment.

1t would seem that snobism is
coming to the front in this great
republic Of ours. The public have
been thoroughly naseuated with a
new and distinct brand that has
lately appeared ard is having a
violent run. The Spanish .Infanta
(whatevcr that means) Eulalie is
just now visiting the United States
and also the Columbian exposition,
and the amount of gush and sense
less slobber that is lavished on her
IS enough to turn the stomach of
a bunch-grass broncho. The daily
press is full Of how she eats, how
she walks, how she talks, what she
says, and lot of other senseless
twaddle that is enough tomake our
illustrious forciathers turn in their
graves and emit hollow and ghastly
| groans. Choke il Off We don't
care if she did come from the same
country Columbus did, choke it off
just the same.

Oregon'S Fine Forests.

In speaking of the display of
woods at the exposition the World 5
Columbian Illustrated says: Oregon
has adopted an unique and practi-
cal method of displaying the woods
produ ed in that state. At Jackson
Park there is house constructed
entirely of Oregon woods. 1t is
ten feet square and nineteen feet
high, and is surmounted by an open
cupola. The body of the structure
is of yellow pine. The roof is of
red cedar shingles, and is supported
by four doric columns. The col
umns are of maple and are very
richly carved. The roof of the Gu
pola is supported by four small dor
is columns of carved oak, The in
terror is finished with panel work
containing about all the woods OF
the state, among which are man
zanita, madrone, yew, laural, myr-
tie, ash, maple, oak, spruce, balm,
fir, sugar pine, birds eye pine,
cherry, curly maple and alder.
The house forms the Oregon pavil-
ion in the Forestry building.
