was to leave town one Monday at sos

worry about Lackaye. He was not in
sight. Cards sent to his room brought
no. response. Everyone was anxious.
They did not know how they could
play the piece that night without the
leading man. BY Z a. m. they were
terribly nervous and demanded that his
door be broken open. AT 40 a cab
stopped out in front of the hotel and
Mr.. Lackaye alighted. He walked in,
glanced up at the clock, called for his
key, and said to me: II must catch
the sos train. Call me at 7.40.' Then
he took the elevator and went up stairs.
He slept 20 minutes, responded to the
call, snatched light breakfast, and
caught the train all right, much to the
relief of his anxious associates. Yes, /

Merchant-Do you think advertising
pays?
Book Agent-No, don't.
Mechanically not?
Book Agent-Why not? Because it
takes all the people to your store to buy
goods, and l can't find anybody at
home to sell a book to that's why not.

COMPETITION.

Competition 10 the life Of trade"
is a maxim which has long been
proven true. The fact that COM
petitors for trade put their best
foot forward and advertise by every
legitimate method has much to do
toward enlivening traffic.
fla business cannot Withstand
honest competition it must beon al
insecurefoo footingeither its methods
or its finances. Press competition
let not that press you, might be a
fair paraphrase on poor Richards
well known maxim.
If a merchant believes he has
better goods or cheaper prices than
a business rival, he assures his
customers of the fact in convincing
Language. Advertisements in the
newspapers should be as plain, as
straightforward talks to strangers
as the merchant gives his customers
over the counter. The difference
is this: when conversing with your
patron you merely retain a custom
er. By a newspaper advertisement
a new customer is not only intro
duced to your store but if the
advertisement appears continuous
ly with periodical change, offering
some new, seasonable bargain at a
drawing price, the old customer is
recalled to your store again and
again.
One Of the surest means Of
making your advertisement read is
to make itattractive and interesting.
The regular announcement which
is looked for and eagerly read by
intending purchasers sells goods. ].
The merchant whose advertise
mems have an honest ring and
who lives up to them behind the
counter seldom lacks customers and
needs not fear competition. Mar

THE CHAMPION HOG.

Pullman's own evidence before
the arbitration committee convicts
himself Of substantially all that
his employees charged him with.
He admitted that the capital stock
Of his company had increased from
$l,O60,OOO to$36,0 100000; thatithad
paid dividends Of from 124 to 5 per
cent, the latter percentage being
paid to stockholders even last year
amounted to $2,SOO,0c0; and yet he
insisted on reducing wages,
The fair, dispassionate people Of
the country can not regard Pull
man and his partners, after this
confession, in any other light than
that Of oppressors, tyrants and pub
licenemies. Such people recognized
the necessity Of reducing wages
in many instances; that labor must
bear its share Of the unusual burd-
ems lately imposed upon all classes
Of people; that employers are not
bound to ruin themselves to keep up
wages; but here isa different case.
The Pullman Co. could have kept
up wages. Its stockholders had
made colossal fortunes out of the
labor oftheir employees. Yet while
still paying 5 per cent dividends,
twice what almost any other cor
poration in the country would have
been content with, they think they
have their employees at their mercy.
If Mr.. Armour would put Pull
man and Wickes in his slaughter
pens, he would have more hog than
is contained in all the thousands
slaughtered in any day of the year.
lisa pity he can't be authorized to
put them through the same pro-
cess as the other hogs, except send
ingthem to market. et.-Welcome.

THERE is one peculiar thing
about trip to the summit Of
Mount Tacoma" said Julius NJ.
Seymour, Of New YORK, who made
the ascent Of the mountain last
week, to the Tacoma Ledger. A
person finds it impossible to eat
anything in the high attitudes.
In our ascent Of the mountain we
virtually had nothing to eat from
Sunday morning, when we reached
the high attitudes, until Monday
evening, when we got back to camp
at Paradise valley. The guide,
Henry Carter, ate some Of our
lunch while we were going up to
the summit, and slmost immediate
ly yomited it up. | account for
this peculiar state Of persons
constitution by the fact that there
is no oxygen in the air, therefore
very little consumption of muscu-
lar tissue takes place, and the
stomach does not require food to
supply waste during the short time
tourists remain on the mountain. {"

On the 18th Of August, 1894,
Roger Q. Mills, the great demo-
cratic war horse, in reference to
the nondescript tariff bill recently
passed by congress, said he neither
STACKED or defended the bill. He
said: "The least we can say about
that measure the better it will be.
1t is the most remarkable measure
that has ever found it 'elf upon the
pages Of any Of the statute boJks
Of any country. | make bold to
say that that bill does not reflect

he says: II do not believe ] will

that the great masses Of the demo-
cratic people Of the United States

TIE VIII aat market remains un.
changed-the lowest price ever
offered in the Willamette valley
35cts per bushel. The only
salvation for the webfoot farmer
is to indulge in diversified products

black cloud that is lowering over

We have the best country Gods

natural resources lie dormant, and

with power enough to set every

WHEN we consider the amour

WHEN we consider the amount
of killing yet to be done in the
China-Japan war before the closely
packed population Of the Celestial
Kingdom is thinned out, the pro-
gress is provokingly slow. There
are some hundred of millions in
China that are doubtless the most
degraded people on the face Of the
earth. The inhabitants have
multiplied for centuries till there
are in the cities the most intricate
masses of paupers that month by
month and year by year, through
centuries Of life in moral and
physical filth, are in a pitiful con-
diticn. The productive lands with
out the cities are occupied and
parceled off in small tracts; they
have been worked for hundreds Of
years till their fertility is destroyed
and life is a toilsome, hopeless bat
tie for mere sustenance. There has
been little advancement in the arts
and the sciences of civilization
among the Chinese. What has
taken place has not trickled down
tothe lower stratum, to the millions.
The stand still. They simply
breed and interbreed like Sats and
the contest for subsistence becomes
continually more irksome and more
hopeless. There has come to them
no light from without. All the
learning and all the history Of the
world is to the Chinese masses a
blank. All the power and great.
ness and civilization Of today is
known to them family as was the
Eldorado Of the sixthteenth century
to the Spaniards. There sordid
superstition and the inherent sus-
picion Of the rulers has formed
an unconquerable barrier against
the incursions acknowledge. And
this mass of humanity, little more
than fostering sore on the earth,
will continue in its slow decay if
there are not unusual conditions
to disturbit. The war we supposed
would produce those conditions.
The Japanese, pervial to the ex-
perience Of other peoples, have
adopted modernfi firearms and being
enthusiastic it was supposed that
they would prosecute the war
with vigor, destroying the hordes
Of China by the thousands. 30
fast as these soldiers were sent
out under generals that were un-
trained and with primitive weapons
they could be killed and were the
process to last long, there might
be an appreciable decrease Of
China's vast population. 1t would
ct least convince the emperor that
