called as was Abraham out OF Ur of the
Chaldees. Who can read the story Of
the revolution and not see Gods hand
on every page. Lord Chatham said For
solidlty OF reasoning, for force Of sagac-
ity and wisdom under complication Of
difficult circumstances, no nation or body
of men can stand In preference to the
general congress Of Philadelphia" Never,
we may add, in this world, before or
since, were so many men Of transcendant
ability arrayed at one time around a COM
mon cause. They were Gods master
worlmen raised up for the hour. And let
us believe we have a mission In the
earth. Ours Is not an idle experiment.
Soon the dock yards of other realms will
resound with the hammer stroke, forg-
Ing and framing and building ships of
state like ours. Men will say, a craft
that can weather such gales is a model;
let us build one like it.
Our flag will be respected more and
more as the centuries roll on. The bats
and owls of monarchies have gone to
roost, while the eagle scars in the light
of day. This nation is born to live.
When the cyclone of 1860 struck us, men
said: Now the good ship of state will go
down.; but We came out of the crisis
stronger than ever. The cyclone Of hardl
times struck us, but the barometer in
dicates fairer weather
But the future of this nation needs the
care OF every patriot. It has given the
world more than one hundred years Of
grand history but it's future is yet an ex-
pertinent; but an experiment only be-
cause the character Of Its coming citi-
zen is yet undetermined. If they take
fast hold upon our divine truth and guard
their country's rights because they fear
God and love their fellowmen, then it
viii stand while time endures and and the
gates Of hell shall not prevail against it.
But the perpetulty OF this government de-
pends upon the character Of the voter.
Select for your officers impure and yenal
men, Shut up your schools, scoff at re-
ligion, tear down your churches, feed
your spiritual life on the husks of mater
ial prosperity and the nation will soon
totter to its fall. Its takes something
besides material prosperity to insure a
nations permanency. Pagan Rome was
never so rich as when she had scarce a
freeman left. In the middle ages, papal
Rome stood raking in to chests the count
less gold of her jubilee, just before she
suffered her most humihating shame
Spain was dropping to pieces Of inward
decay when all the gold 4of the New
World was flowing into the treasures of
her kings Wealth is not necessary to a
nations perpetuity; but justice, mercy,
temperance and public spirit are; and
without these wealth may be sign of
inward weakness. Again the perpetuity
Of this government is to be guarded by
the Word of God. This government was
founded upon the Bible 1t was not born
in the club rooms of French and German
tNaI I1I4k n...k l..
of men who believed in God and His word.
Let us live pure, honest, sober lives for
the love of our country. Every good
Dian Is a reason why God should spare
the nation and prolong its life.

manner.

For several weeks past a party Of men
have been bonding property near Medford
with the purpose Of developing some ex-
cellent coal prospects. One of the first
contracts for purchase was made with
Samuel Furry and embraces land upon
which some prospecting had been done
This place is located on the east side
of Bear creek, three miles southeast OF
this city and about 800 feet above the level
of the stream.
Mr.. Furry discovering some coal crop
pings last fail proceeded to trace the vein
and during the winter has excavated a
tunnel about 70 feet. A we'll defined vein
is visible very little inclined from level.
The formation both above and below is
slate, while the coal, which is slightly
interspersed with slate, is about 100 feet
thick.
Those interested in the enterprise are
William Singer, ]. Il. C. Mash, W. I.
Vawter and L. G. Porter of this city and
two Portland capitalists. They have alto
gether 1900 acres of adjacent land bonded
and will begin this week getting out coal
for shipment. The present tunnel will be
enlarged and extended, eight feet wide

ing the work yesterday morning, pro-
rounces the coal a reasonably good quail
ity of Ignite, and the shipment will be
made for test. The coal has been used
successfully by blacksmlts here hence
the confidence in its commercial quality.
Mr.. James comes highly recommended
as an expert, and it is expected his knowl-
edge will enable the owners to get the
best results from dveloping the property.

An Interesting Letter from Tacoma About
Schools.

Tacoma, Wash, July Q. 1896.
Dear Astorian:--
1t was my good fortune to arrive here
in time to attend the commencement ex-
erc.ses Of the Tacoma high school, and
a few pointers cncerning them may prove
Of interest to those who enjoyed the sue
cess of our own school exercises.
This is the first class completing the
four years course adopted by the Tacoma
board for their high school, numbers
thlrty-one, nine Of whom are boys. Each
appeared on the program in essay, ora
tion, recitation or debate, making with
the music lengthy entertainment. How
long, l am unable to say, as eight num-
bers enabled roe TO judge fairly for all.
/ can truly say that in appearance, man
ner, voice, subjects of essays and treat
ment of those subjects I felt very proud
Of our Astoria boys and girls in compar-
irg them with these. These exercises
were good, but In no respect did they ex-
Gel the work of out boys and girls. When
Astoria has a large opera house and can
supplement her graduating class by a
chorus of seventy girls from the various
schools, she can present to any audience
as pretty sight as Tacoma did. In tone,
training, time and quality our Astoria
high school choir under Mrs. Crosby's
efficient instruction showed better results
than this chorus Of seventy.
Though admission was charged the the
ater was packed and standing room even
vas at premium.
I am In a mood for comparisons, and

csg; shaped harbor bordered by hills and

WORK ON a HiGH PLANE.

Baker City Democrat.
Anyone who observes a company Of
travelling men as they meet in hotel
lobby an dgo from place to place together
will subscribe to the sentiment that these
commercial statesmen do business on a
plane higher than that of the average
townsman. Watch the former as they
meet, perhaps competitors trying TO sell
to the same local merchants ana realizing
that IL one sells the other A.e-s sell just
that much less. You will see, with an
occasional exception, that the competi-
tion makes not a particle of difference in
their cordialIty When any one speaks
doubtfully of the character of one Of
these fellow strugglers for business, he
viii find the whole fraternity ready to
take up the friends cause and defend him
to the last. Business men of city should
learn valuable lesson from this. 1t is
not to be supposed that these travellers
have no MISUNDERSTANDING They do.
But they settle them among themselves
and to the outside world present a solid
front. If the business mel of any town
could work on such a basis, you could
not hold down such a town. It would
grow and improve all the time.

HOPS A SHORT YIELD
Gsrvals star.

Gervais Star.
A report is circulating around already
as to the probable crop Yield Of hops this
fall. An estimate of $1,000 bales Is given.
This Is by far too much for this state.
A conservative estimate made by Mr..
Henry L. Bents and w. e. Her, OF Butte
vile, who are canvassing the hop growing
sections, gives the yield at not more than
5000 bales. They claim that from per-
sonal observation there is short crop
all along the line. There Is any num-
ber of growers in Clackamas county that
have not sold their last years crop yet
and are too discouraged to take much in
teres. in the growth Of hops. Many yards
will not produce their full bearing on
account OF slack work being done. 1t
takes care to make hops grow, and that
has not been given the yards. As a con-
sequence almost ell the yards show the
effect and It does not take much Of an
eye to foreteH short crop.
