AGAINST A CHANGE.


The Linn County Alliance has
passed the following school book reso.
lutions:
WHEREAS, There seems to be smother
movement working by the state school
superintendent and school book trust
to force another change of school books
upon an overburdened iaboring people.
Therefore be 1t
Resolved, By the Linn County
Alliance, assembled in regular meeting
that we denounce the same as unjust
oppressive and uncalled for, and under
the present financial condition, an
outrage, as many Of the school children
could not procure the necessary books
to attend school.
Resolved, That we ask the people
of Linn county and all other counties
in Oregon to protest the proposed
change. Further that we urgently
request the next legislature to so
change the law In regard to school
books to take out Of tine superintend-
ents power and put 1t into the hands
Of the people, to be voted for or against
at the general election at stated periods
fixed by law.
WHEREAS, Our present officers af-
ter all their pledges Of economy before
election have have shown the usual
greed oftrying to bleed the laboring
classes by having proceedings begun
IN the courts to annul the salary law
and restore the fee system, thereby
larely increasing the salaries, therefore
be 1t
Resolved, That we, the officers and
nlembes of the Linn County Alliance,
denounce the same as unjust and op.
prsssive and should not be allowed,

FRUIT raising will eventually be
o leading industry Of La1e county,
and should be now. The profit on
prunes at the ruling prices is
better than could be realized from
any kind Of grain. Markets can
be found for this fruit throughout
the world. The shipment of apples
East last fall proved conclusiyely
that they can be raised and shipped
with profit. In Iowa and other
Eastern states, where a few years
ago apples were raised in con-
siderable quantities, comparatively
few are now raised, and market
is open for just such sections as the
Willsmette valley. The man with
a good fruit orchard will be indep-
endent andin good circumstances
when Others are struggling for an
existence.-Register.

BEWARE.

A correspondent to the States
man who signs himself "a victim
expresses himself quite plainly in
regard to building and loan asso.
ciations, He describes the abusi.
ness as loaning o sucker a few
hundred dollars and taking his
notes for two or three times the
amount on condition that he buy q
gravel lot on which to build a
house with what money remained
and what credit he could get Of
hardware stores, lumber companies
and mechanics labor and then
after sweating under periodical
payments upon the swelled note as
long as he could earn, borrow or
beg them, having the whole taken
in by the association for the non
payment of the remainder" How
long will the people permit these
usurious corporations to live un-
restricted by law2 Do not be be-
guided BY them. Remember that
nothing is honestly obtained with
out just equivalent, and when
you are offered something for
nothing you want to see that it
is absolutely free and without
strings omit. Buy your home from
a reliable man and if you have to
borrow money to help pay for it
borrow it in the old fashioned way
from those who have honest money
to loan. Then, if you would pros
per, buy your groceries at a grocery
store and not from a peddler. Buy
your clothing f'om a reputable
dealer whose word can be relied on
and when you buy all wool don't
expect to get it at the price of
cotton. When you buy hardware
or household goods use like pru-
dence. When you buy rat poison
or moth exterminator shun the
stranger and patronize the home
druggist. When you invest in
crayon portraits know who you
are dealing with. If you are sick,
call in the home physician-don't
be victimized by the strictly con-
fdential" correspondence frauds.
Don't buy gold bricks, and don't
dehorn your bull dogs tail in the
dark Of the moon; it's q bad sign,
and besides, he is likely to sit on

IN the coming political campaign
the tariff issue will be necessarily
supreme; but all the indications
are that in the great presidential
contest two years hence, the silver
question will demand as much at
tention as the tariff question.
The two causes are one. The
country produces 40 per cent Of
the worlds silver produce; and it
is the greatest Of all producers Of
the staple commodities which are
most positively and injuriously
affected by persistent rise Of gold.
Free trade and gold monometsllism
are British policies. They belong
together. Free trade threatens
our manufactures. Gold mono
metalllsm has done incalculable
harm to our farmers.-Philadel.

home in such branches as are u.s.
ually taught in primary schools,
or have already acquired the ordi-
nary branches of learning taught

The two forms OF advertising that the

display. The good taste exhibited In these
two directions makes walk along their
streets delight and an art treat The Pa
risian poster owes It's attractiveness TO bold
drawing and subtle, though oftentimes

is invariably introduced. Usually tho size
OF the poster is large, but never is 1t ut

but IL bore the signature OF Cherct, who Is
tho acknowledged master OF the poster art
In France. Each example Of his work that
issues from the lithographing press Is
worth more than Is asked for q COPY Of a
high class magazine. There nre even places
In Paris whore collectors buy posters, and
tho best examples cost from francs go
centsl up. Posters without the lettering are
still more highly esteemed and cost about 10
times as much. Rare examples frequently
command fancy prices. Cherct, Ouillanmc,
Fraipont. CRnis, Choubrae, Faria, Yer
uoau, etc, arc the best known designers,
and the connoisseur looks for the signature
