assOcia ton urged undertake the study OF Gods
Word. and this applies to college and railroad as
well local work.

A STORY OF SUCCESS.

The State Association held its first convention in
October 1861 at Elizabeth. It then consisted OF only
eight associations In the following year the num-
Der had increased 10 fourteen. There was no per-
ccptbic gain until lS75. when thirty associations
were represented. The gain was not permanent.
There WIS noticeable decrease at the subsequent
conventions and in 1856. when the meeting was held
in Bordentown only fourteen associations sent dele
gates. The gain since then has been steady ana
fifty associations are now enrolled. This has been
accomplished by persistent systematic work. The
organizers. prohting by the failures Of the past
have established the associations a firm basis.
New fields have been developed. Associations have
been formed in educational institutions and every
college and prominent school fl the State has It's

Against BlackliSting.

w. E. Willis was conductor on the
East Coast railway in Florida. Being
offered better position on the South
Florida road, he gave his employers the
usual notice and went to work on the
South Florida road. In three days he
was discharged, no cause being assigned,
but he learned, however, that he was
blacklisted by the Superintendent of the
East Coast road. He vainly applied for
work on every railroad in Florida, and
then brought suit for damages in the
United States Court against the East
Coast road. On thR trial, the attorneys
for the road urged that writing the black
listing letter was the act of the Superin-
tendent and that the corporation should
not be held responsible. The court held,
however, that the Superintendent was
the agent Of the corporation and
That the corporation was responsible for
his acts. Willets was awarded $i,75O
damages.
This ruling of the United States Court
will probably end the blacklsting bust
ness by railroad Superintendents. AS it
mas been, blacklisted railft 81 man VI g
debarred from earning a living at ms
occupation as he could not get employ
ment on any road.

BYRNE THROWS A SCARE
He Fears Bryan Will Carry New York
State by Default.

He Fears Bryan Will Carry New York
State by Default.
Major John Byrne, president of the
Democratic Honest-Money League,
who has spent several days up the
state, returned yesterday, says the
New York World of the I'd instant.
Last nj ght an interview with him was
given out from headquarters. He
says: "Both central, western and
northern New York are rotten on
silver, and unless something is done
we will lose the state. Bryan had
wildly enthusiastic meetings and has
left an ugly trail behind him.
81 am alarmed, because if the esti-
mates on the other critical states are
as erroneous as those on New York
there is no hope for the country. To
day an election would give this state
to Bryan with 100000 majority.
"The truth is the campaign is going
by default; there is too much conf
dence and not enough work.
"There is q large class-railroad
men, farm laborers and others-whe
are for Bryan and free silver through
ignorance, and should be save. This
education alone will do. They are not
getting the needed instruction and
cannot hope to get it unles means can
be had to enable the work to go on.
Our league here could do so per cent
more for the cause than it is doing if
it had the means"

THE STATE FRUIT EXHIBIT.
1t Must be Made by Eastern Oregon This
Year.
PASCAL.


1t Must be Made by Eastern Oregon This
Year.
Ordinarily Oregon has been able to
make a most creditable exhibit of
fruits from all sections of the state at
the Portland exposition, but this year
the display will have to come from
Eastern Oregon, and largely from
Wasco county. VIM. NJ. Evans, who
has charge of collecting the fruit
exhibit, informs the TIMEs-MoUN-
TANNER that he has traYeled over
Western Oregon from one end to the
other, and in no county on that side of
the mountains has he been able toget
a collection of fruits that would do to
place on exhibition, hence he has come
to Eastern Oregon, and from what he
has seen of the fruit here, is satisfied
that an attractive display can be made
of the products of this county.
A committee of the'Commercial Club
will take the matter in hand, and will
attend to packing and forwarding all
exhibits that are presented. If Wasco
county is ever to derive full benefit
from making an exhibit, and is to be
awarded the credit that is due it as
fruit growing section, this is the year.
In many other sections the fruit crop
has been an utter failure, and although
we have had the most unfavorable
season ever known, the quality of our
fruit is perfect, and the quantity is
fair. Let such facts as these be known
abroad, and not only our fruit but our
fruit land will be in demand. Wasco
county can be better advertised by a
fruit display at Portland this year than
ever before,

An Attractive Store.

The recent changes that have been
made in Mrs. Briggs millinery store
make it one of the handsomest aud
most attractive places in the city.
The store has been thoroughly reno
Yated, the shelving and show cases
have been rearranged, and nothing
will be omitted to make the immense
new fall stock of millinery the most
complete that has ever been brought
to the city. The ladies of The Dalles
will be pleased to learn that Mrs.
Briggs has again secured the services
of Miss NJ. Bottorff as trimmer, and
that she is now employed in Portland
selecting and arranging Mrs. Briggs
fall stock.

Idea or HriceS.

Gently sent to his friend table pub
Hshed in the Chicago Times-Herald,
and printed for several days in the
Oregonian, which pretended to
give the comparative prices OF
articles of general consumption n
in Mexico and the United States,
and asked him if the figures published
were correct. He received substan-
TALLY the following reply:
SILAo. MEXICO, Aug. 81, '96
In regard to the furniture business,
1 have furniture for four rooms, iuclud-
ing No. I cook stove and utensils,
that cost about $50, Mexican money.
II can buy fol eign goods here for
very little more in silver than l can
get them for in the United States for
gold; some things are even cheaper.
Beefsteak is about II cents pound.
Oil is high here but is getting cheaper.
In my judgment q pedstead that costs
S1S here would cost from $l2 to S14 in
the United States. For 81 Mexican
money 1 can buy can of American
baking powder that costs 65 cents at
home. Hams and bacon are high, as
