IN STATE CONVENTION
The W. @. 7. U. Annual Meeting a,
Roseburg.

The w. G. T. U. Annual Meeting at
Roseburg.
The State Con vention Of the w.
G. T. u. convened at Roseburg last
week. A large number Of ladies
from different parts Of the state
were present.
The summary of report Of COR
responding secretary, Mrs, Susie E.
Foster of Portland, was read as fol-
lows:
"We have an enrolment Of 96
unions, 1903 active and 355 honor
ary members. Seventy-nine unions
have reported, and II unions have
failed to send annual reports. /
have been able to report % new
unions out of % which were actu-
ally organized during the year.
We have 322 active and 20 honor
ary members more than we had
last year. Number Of Young Wo-
mems Unions, Z; members 172 ac-
tive and SO honorary,
Total membership in the state,
including "Y's," 1872 active and
615 honorary.
1t must be remembered that
while my report gives the actual
number of mem mbers enrolled, yet
the treasurer's report alone, must
be depended upon for the paid up
membership, the basis Of our repre-
sentation in the National Conven-
tion. New unions seldom pay state
dues in advance, but they are Ger.
tainly right in reporting the actual
number of names enrolled. Alto.
getber the work reported to me
through my correspondence with
the union, is far in advance of any
year since the financial panic began
From every quarter has come the
most encouraging and cheering
words which shows how courageous
ly the white ribbon women have
adjusted their work to the changed
conditions caused by the most re-
markable period Of financial de-
preston the country has ever
known.
"In the words Of our great Ma
tional leader, we may we'll tak'
"heart of hope as We try to follow
the Gospels CLEAN along the hills
Of Hope in an endeaver to helT
prepare the way for the coming Of
the Lord in custom and law"

The Steamer Lewiston Proves This
Stream Can Be Navigated.
Robert Burns, the genial travel
ling freight agent of.the O. r. & N.
company just returned from an ex-
pedition up the Clearwater. The
party OF which Mr.. Burnes was a
member numbered the chief Of
6cials of the line and one news
paper man from Lewiston.
Taking the steamer Lewiston at
Raparia, at present the lowest
point of navigation on the Snake,
the party were boated up through
the great winding canyon of that
river to Lewiston. They sojourned
here for preparations to be perfect
ed for the cruise up the Clearwater,
the river to be explored. Thus far

above Lewiston than the Indian
agency, distance of twelve miles.

objects Of interest. Every turn in
the river and every rapids and ed

There is buoyancy ofspirit which

ambition, when you know that you
are doing that which no other man
has accomplished before you.

The Citize MS of the Occur d'Alene
Mining Camps Say So.
Matters in the Ceur d'Alene
mines are rapidly approaching q
crisis and ere long we may expect
to see the bloody days Of two years
ago repeated. The citizens Of War
dner, and incidentally the A. P. A.,
have determined that the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mine, which en-
ploys 400 men, shall be worked,
and be worked, too, independent Of
the miners union. This simply
means a repetition Of murders,
wholesale shootings, use of dyna-
mite and other outrages with which
the miners union appears INSOFAR
able. The Spokane Review says:
The local representative Of the
company will today receive the
petition published last week. II
has been signed by 170- persons
who are directly interested in
Wardner's welfare, and it indicates
that the signers will not be half.
hearted in their support. The pc
tition will be forwarded TO San
Francisco, and if it meets the ap.
proval Of the company officials
there, it is expected that orders will
be forthcoming to take on men
preparatory to starting up. The
petition meets the requirements Of
the company in form, and it is ex'
pected that the number Of sigma
lures will pass muster. Nearly
every merchant in Wardner anC
Kellogg has Endorsed it.
To opearte a mine like this with
out consulting the miners unior
is something heretofore unheard o
and all good citizens imbued will

God-speed. Mr.. Hales, superinten

the Frenchmen.
A company was formed recently
in Portland to can horse flesh for
the French market. But The Dali
les has already canned some horse
meat, as the Chronicle Of that city
says:
Nearly all the Newspapers of the
United States have had something
to say about the canning Of Oregon
horses, the discussion arising over
the formation Of a stock company
at Portland for that purpose. While
all this talk has been going on,
The DaIles has had not much to
say, but has been doing more to
demonstrate the feasibility Of the
scheme than any place. Last Jam
uary. Mr.. Herrick, owner of the
cannery here, had slaughtered a
magnificent 4-year-old cayuse, and
put him upin neatly labeled cans.
Since the. at different times he has
canned five others, and isnow feed
ing a fine 3.year-old filly on grain
for the purpose Of noting the diff
ference in the flesh, if any.
The flesh resembles beef in ap-
pearance, and cannot be told from
It by taste. The grain ofthe flesh
is fine, and upon opening the cans
it certainly looks good enough to
eat. Dozens of people have SAM
pied the canned horse, and are un-
animously in pronouncing it good,
though there was not one of them
but confessed o prejudice against
the eating of horse flesh.
While others have been talking,
Mr.. Herrick has gone at it SYSTEM
atically to see whether or not the
flesh Of tho horse will be adopted
az an article Of food. II it is, it is
safe to say that the canning will
be done in Eastern Oregon and not
in Portland, since the freight on
horses to Portland would be saved,
that item alone being sufficient to
make the profit on the business.

Mr.. Keir Hardie, who comes from
England to preach socialism in this
country, hopes that his mOvsmsns will
not be mistaken for the anarchist move
ment Anarchism wants government
done away with. Socialism wants to
make use OF government for bensaeens
industrial ends. Mr.. HHrdio would like
this distinction kept in view.
tits true that the distinction is radi'
cal between socialism and NnRrchism,
but while Mr.. Hardie was talking the
Socialist Labor party OF Chicago was
holding a celebration. Anarchists
schwab and Noebe were helping to run
the thing, schwab with a speech aud
Neebe behind the bar, Noobs's dangh'
ter uniurlod tho red flag Of anarchy as a
feature Of the occasion.
It's lido for anybody to point to the
distinction between socialism and au'
archism when the anarchists call them
selves socialists, and when tho same old
Haymarkot mountaineering crowd as
semblos under the same old red nag.
and the whole thing is called q socialist
demonstration.
There arc honest, well meaning
Socialiuts in this country who do not
rally to the red Standard but the ones
who make the noise are Of the SchWab
aud Neebs variety, distinctly a pestiisr'
Gus lot They would overthrow tho
government Of a city, a state, OF the

The only reason why they do not

enough. They never will be strong
enough, bu. the poison is in them just
