The Jefferson Review Thinks Sidney
Will Be Town.

Will Be Town.
Mr.. Thomas, the manager OF the
Sidney Touring mill and warehouse,
was in this city Tuesday. He has ex-
pended nearly $4,000 the past year In
improving his mill property and now
has as complete plant as can be
found ia the state, though not so large
as some others. The mill is of so bar
rel capacity and the warehouse has
storage room for $1,000 bushels, and
from present appearances it VIII be
crowded with grain this season.
Heretofore Sidney has not been rec
ognized as a competitor In the wheat
market, but this season it is right at
the head as regards prices, and has
already bought a large amount of
wheat. Whatever price is offered by
Mr.. Thomas for wheat meaDs just
that much net to the farmer, no sack
age or storage being deducted. 1t is
the Intention Of the manager to grind
most, il not all, Of the wheat
purchased by him into flour, but
should he wish to do so he can sell
and ship wheat at any time, as the
river steamer Gypsy makes regular
trips to that point throughout the EN-
tile year, The people of that section
speak very highly of Mr.. Thoms as
man of strict integrity and fine bus
iness ability. and the Sidney mills un-
der his management promise to soon
become one Of the most important
buslneas industries in this section
and a very profitable one both to Mr..
Thoms and the people thereabouts.
The Review predicts that two years
hence will see prosperous little town
at Sidney. Mr.. Thomas is at present
to run telephone line from
that point TO Salem, via Liberty,
which will put him in direct commu-
nication with; the outside market.

The showers that set IN Sunday eve
ming need alarm no one. Oregon has
splendid hop crop and will make a
large quantity of first-class hops. The
rains are not pleasant for campers
hut will lay the dust, clean the yards,
and If not followed by frost will not
hurt the yards. All talk about mold
in hop yards on account of cold rains
is to be discounted.

Private letters from the Klondik

Private letters from the Klondikt
give evidence that the Salem repre-
sentatiYes IN the Alaska goldtields

The reports from John Singleton and
Ernest Wagner, show that they are
men of good mettle, who will probe
that region to the bottom. They hold
valuable claims and will with pick and
pan make home-stake before another
year passes.

In the domain of art our people have

81 wish l could make my girls an

dressing "The Girl Who Aspires to
Art" in the September Ladies' Home
Journal, "that while each one should
a ipire to the best work, that girl is
foolish who having been once made
conscious Of her mistake, persists in
Offering mediocre work that deserves
no recognition whatever. If you feel
that you have the artistic instinct
and the love for color, then seek for
yourself good art school, and find
out in what branch of work your abil-
ity lies; you will then be more apt to
attain the position you long for then
ifyou are content with self-culture.
1t is a practical impossibility for you
to teach yourself. If you have fool.

been given you then be sure you will
succeed. You will be wasting your

out of your pretty head some of the
silly fancies that are there. The girl
who learns to draw a good wallpaper
design, who learns to combine colors
so that a rich-looking rug is the result,
who understands how to embelllsh
book with a suitable cover-she is the
girl who can be called an artist. She
does not ask the world to look upon
her from sentimental point of view,
because she has claims to distinction
aud can demand recognition.
The progress and development of
woman in the better times coming
will necessitate more attention to art

AS Marion county nolitics

AS Marion county politics is torn
up over the injection of Senator Pat
terson's candidacy for the Portland
Collectorship, a few sIdelights may
not be out of place. Senator Patter-
son has been successful politician as
Oregon politics goes. He is'a feeble
imitator of Senator McBride's Mach
iavellan methods-the still-hunt, the
silent man, the underground worker.
With Mr.. Brophy he has manipulated
the primaries ana followed the bid
ding of 1.-THE sick man at the state
house until the latter stepped into
Senators Dolph's shoes and the Pat
terson and Brophy embraced on the
floor of the joint convention with a
Didn't we do tt" Didn't we do
it !' that shocked the ears of both the
Dolph men and the sincere opponent S
to Dolph. Now they are to be re-
warded.
No one doubts that If Mr.. Mcbride
can bring IL about Patterson and
Brophy are to have the fat places at
Portland. The Patterson push is on
the inside. 1t gets all the profitable
cream at the asylum and penitentiary.
1t has the call at tho state treasury.
1t thinks it needs,in order to live, the
cream OF the federal offices. And it
seldom goes after anything it does not
get. The Republican party exists for
its benefit. But this time it looks as
II the Patterson and BrOphy push had
oyerreached. 1t has aroused the bet
ter elements OF the Republican party
solidly against it Both men still hold
offices and both have public patron
age enough to make any ordinary man
rich. What do Patterson and Brophy
want OF any more, ask the Repu0li'
cans who do the campaign work
They are willing to keep Patterson
and Brophy in Office all their lives as
they no doubt deserve at the hands of
their countrymen.
But when ii comes to doubling up
on Offices, and hogglng all the "pap,"
they revolt and ask who are Patter.
son and Brophy anyhow. The gen.
eral impression is, these pillars Of, Re
publlcanism In Marion scounty are
almost ready TO tumble. They haYe
oyerreached and the enraged elephant
OF the Republican circus will trample
on their stalled forms. When they
come out OF the melee they won't
recognize themselves.

The public will not be dissuaded
from demanding show down in the
Oregon state treasury by the furious
contortions of deputy nor the suave
but unsatisfactory refusals Of the
treasurer to take the public into his
confidence. The public will know
some day what becomes of the public
money that is supposed to rest in the
state treasury for years at a time. In
other states pnblic moneys not in use
are let out to safe repositories on a
low rate of interest and bring in a
revenue to the state. But in Oregon
the people neither know where their
money is kept, what use it is put to,
nor what it earns for those who ma
nipulate it. They never will know
until the present administration of
the state treasury is retired and pre-
vented from debating its own success
sor. They may never know anything
about how much the treasury is in
solvent until a Populist treasurer is
elected.

Practise Economy

In buying medicine as in other mat
ters. 1t is economy to get Hoods

medical value in Hoods Sarsaparlla
than in any other. Every bottle

doses and will average, taken accord
ing to directions, to month, while
Others last but fortnight.
Hoods Pills are the only pills TO

1t is too frequent abuse of horses
in thiS country for riders to let them
stand for hours under saddle, after a

tightly they can hardly breathe. 1t

1t is worth taking a moment of your
time to think about an independent
newspaper, that by its merit compels
the attention of thinking people as
we'll as of those who only read to be
entertained. You must advertise
Advertising may be done in a thou
sand ways. Any method which tells
everybody about anything is adver-
tising. Advertising may be done by
word of mouth, or by word of type.
Advertising is anything whicG con
veys a message about business or
product.
The Editor is in contact with the
people to whom he seeks to convey
the news of his paper. The princi-
pie is exactly the same with the ma
ker or handler of goods that are to
have more than local sale.
OF all the ways of advertising, the
best, most certain aud cheapest is
that Of using the columns of good
newspaper. Intelligent people with
money to spend read live indepen-
dent paper.
