A Fam. Given AWAY.

A local paper is in receipt of a
letter from gentleman in Pome
roy which contains peculiar
proposition. He wants the paper
to effect the sale of his farm in
Garfield county, Washington, and
puts it in this language.
Zone hundred and sixty acres Of
good land, with fine spring water
on it and Is acres in cultivation,
given away, and good warranty
deed to same, to anyone who will
pay for the improvements on it,
one good house, painted, worth
5000; a good barn, worth 800; a
young orchard, bearing fruit, worth
800; fences worth 500. This is
in Garfield county, Washington.
This putting the improvements
below cost at 1900.
"But to make itso you can surely
find a buyer, | will put the i'm !.
proyements in at $475, and give
the land away. So the buyer will
be securing substantial improve

nearer $500, for $475, and have
thrown in a good farm Of 160

passage of boat on March 1, the

that they will not again be opened
for operation until another ap-
preparation can be worked through

this is disappointing to those who
have for years looked forward TO
the time when we should have an.
open river to the sea, as an era of
prosperity to the Inland Empire,
is putting it mildly indeed. The
people are not only disappointed,
but they are led to believe that
there is something decidedly wrong

TALK ON ADVERTISING.
A Complete Revolution is Developin

RSV'tptStS ~ uevoiutiOn is developing
in This Branch of Business.
The, most notable, as we'll as the
most interesting, development Of
business methods that has come
into public notice during the past
three or four years is to be found
in the changed attitude of business
concerns toward the Advertising
question, says Newspaper.
It is gradually being conceded
by the most progressive business
men that the advertising question
is among the two or three most
important ones they have to con-
slider, affecting directly both the
volume and the quality Of their
trade. This attitude has been
held for long time by dealers in
specialties, such as patent medi-
cines, but it has not been regarded
as essential to success in retail
trade until within comparative
ly recent period.
Now this turning to the adver-
tising question with the greatest
interstl born of very close trade
conditions, and the access of new
methods, is of very great interest
70 newspaper publishers, and their
attitude toward it Is Of the greatest
Importance to their future.
Old IDEAS regarding advertising
are being swept away with q rapid
ity that is absolutely startling. TO
ultra conservatives it seems that
the very foundations of the estab-
lished order are being left suspend
ed in the air.
Progressive publishers are falling
in line, and are aiding and abetting
the revolution In all ways. They
see that it may be made to work to
their advantage, if they show
disposition and the power to assist
the advertiser.
Scarcely any advertising is done
now as it was done years ago, and
The departure from old-time meth
ods IL more marked each season.
The expert writers, the advertising
agents, and the experts in typog-
raphy all lend their aid to push
the new movement along, and the
old fashioned advertiser is left foy
behind the body of the procession,
The old fashioned publisher also
feels the drift away from him, and
that he is in danger of being left
stranded upon The dry and sandy
shore of d barren business island.
He finds that he is required to JUS
tify his requests of advertisers to
take space in q very different man.
ner from what he has been aecus-
toned to. The plea that the local
papsr must be supported is no
longer received as valid. He is
confused by demands for better
display, frequent changes, and as
sistanee In writing advertisements.
The whole collection be looks upor
as foolish and unnecessary.
Those publishers who resist the
new doctrine Of advertising will at
last discover that they are kicking
against time, and that they are pre-.
pairing themselves for business lone
someness, for difficulties, and for
an official visit from the sheriff.

A CHINESE HUSBAND
He Whips His White Wife
Most CrueIy.
HE ONCE WAS RELIGIOUS
They Were Married in Walla
Walla, Washington.

The following clipping from the
Portland Welcome would indicate
that Charley Tom and his white
wife, late Of Walla Walla, are not
living as happily together as they
should. The story told by the
woman Of her first meeting Tom in
a house of worship will make peo.
pie who are acquainted with the
facts smile broadly:
"A crowd of curious people were
attracted to an old broken down
rookery on Davis street near Fourth,
last Tuesday evening. The occa-
sion for the gathering was the
screams Of a woman whom it was
supposed was being murdered. The
door of the shack was quickly
battered to splinters and the, eager
.hrong jostled themselves in to
ascertain the cause of the commo-
tion. A woman nearly nude was
found upon the floor with her nose
bleeding profusely and large
sized "shanty" built over the left
optic. After she had been assured
that those present would do her no
harm, she related that her lover
had beaten her because she would
not give him a dollar which she
had earned that morning. On
being inte.rogated as to where the
offender could be found, she pointed
to q room adjoining. The crowd
Immediately repaired as directed
only to find an elderly Chinaman
crouched in the corner, shivering
like whipped cur. AT first it was
thought advisable to deal with the
descendant of the flowery kingdom
in a reckless manner but cooler
heads prevailed, and after CONVEX
Satione with the woman the crowd
retired and informed an officer who
took the matter in hand.
"The woman claimed to have
been married to her husband near
ly year, the ceremony being per-
formed in Walla Walla by
Christian minister. She stated
that before the marriage her hus-
band was a devoted member of the
church, and it was at a place of
worship that their love relations
began, Soon after their marriage
the couple came to Portland and
the husband seems to have quite
forgotten all his Christian learning
for he forced his wife to accept the
distasteful affections Of other
Cinnamon and to gather in all the
sheckeis she could from them"
