WONDERFUL FREAKS OF ZEPHYR IN MICH
IGAN.
From Tho Apcna (Mich) Echo.
II King. OF the Wolf Creek settlement, was In
the city to-day and related to THE Echo 4 story
that sounds weird and strange In this land. and
when related to several bystanders they gave rs
q pity ing look SHOOK their heads mournfully, and
left Us standing alone. Mr.. King. however. Is a
man OF goOdly presence, and bears an honest
name He says that while standing near his house
yesterday ho was suddenly attracted by the roar
OF wind. and. looking in the direction from whence
II came. he coming directly toward him \
cloud OF dust and before he could realize what was
going he the roof OF his house rise twenty
feet In the air and disappear. His two boys were
with MIN and witnessed tho same scene. The
house was one-story log structure and tho wind
had raised the roof and with II the four logs TO
which II nailed.
As soon as H. could collect himself he rushed 10
the house. expecting 10 ind the family dead or
seriously injured. but found every body there
calm and undisturbed II window had simply
been opened. one OF the freaks OF tho zephyr was
TO take picture frame from the wall remove the
glass without breaking 1t, and then remove tho
picture rs completely and neatly as II done by
hand. The frame was broken at corner. but
the glass WAS not even cracked and no trace has
since been found of the picture Mr.. King
making purchases OF nails. etc. this morning with
which TO replace the roof which found some
twenty rods away from the house as uninjured
AS II set there by human hands.

INFLUENCE IN CONGRESS.

The Corvallis Gazette ipE trying
to boom Tongue Sof q reelection
comes very near making itself ri.
diculous. 1t exclaims: "Were
those petitions you signed, urging
the improving Of Yaquina harbor,
honest expressions Of your desires
In that directioui Were those con.
gratuls.ions when the happy result
of Mr.. Tongues lsbors with the
war department was made knows.
genuinel Or are you going to in
form the war department and con.
gress by your vote that you have
no real interest in Ysquina bay!"
Yes. the petitions were genuine;
the congratulations were genuine.
and We don't intend 70 inform the
war depsrtmet that We do not want
the further Improvement of va
quina harbor. The reason that we
signed the petition was, to use the
statement Of Q prominent repub.
lican of this county, to force Mr..
Tongue to take some action In the
matter. and let him know that the
people were interested in the in.
provemsnt Of Yaquins harbor.
He had been In congress nearly
two years and had left the Yaquina
matter right where Mr.. Hsrmas
had left Il. And Il was only vhen
an universal expression Of the peo.
pie of his district In the matter that
Mr.. Tongue became aware that
there was such q place ~ Yaquins
bay In bis district, and wsks up to
the fact II vas time for him to be
up and doing or the people would
speak later on In the matter.
There is another side to this mat.
Ter that the Gasette asd such boom.
ers seem to forget. and that Is this:
10 it not right and proper for q
cougressman to work for the whois
district which he representa- ID
, not that what he 10 elected to do.

PROSPERITY.

1t would seem from the public
declarations Of fcampaign orators and
the private discussions of the rank
and hls Of the people that there 10
. great difference Of opinion as to
what prosperity consists Of. The
z. o. p. speakers tell us that We are
right in the midst of the most pros.
porous times we have ever known,
and that man who cannot see q
marked change for the better In the
last two years Is 50 mentally blind
that nothing short OF q miracle
could restore his eyesight.
Now If we desire to be
honest with ourselves We can soon
ascertain whether these are prss.
porous times or not. Prosperity
means good fortune, success. How
many Of our neighbors are more
successful in business to-day than
two years ago. Let all such man-
ifest 1t by rising up. How many
who have been in business for the
last ten years are as well off today
as they were ten years ago. Let
all such stand up. This 10 an easy
and practical way to settle the
question. Just take an inventory
Of your worldly goods and chattels
and compare Il with former ones.
Just glance around among your
neighbors and see how many of
them are prospering in business
and laying up wealth. There is
no need of travelling long distance
to get information on this subject.
Here Ia a man shoveling dirt on the
railroad. Let us ask him. "Hello!.
ntiehbor, what wages are you get.
ting" Zone dollar and 2 qnarter
day" What did you get during
the cleveland hard times" Zone
dollar and a half q day." Do you
get as many days work in a year
now as you did then!" mo, I
don't get on an average more then
one half as many" Do you find
II an easy matter to support your
family and lay up Q little for rainy
day?' Lay up money! Don't
you know that employment is so
uncertain that there is not a mer-
chaat in Lincoln county that dare
give laboring man caedit for a
barrel of Aour." Don't you
know that nearly Q hundred labor
ing men have been obliged to leave
this county during the past year ip
search of workH Well We must
confess that so far the evidenc 10
adverse to the prosperity theory,
but this evidence may be excep-
,ional; let as continue the inquiry.
How Is 1t with our local industries,
such as heretofore have been impor-
tant factors in the business Of this
bay. We call up the Pioneer Sand
Stone company. Hello. Pioneer,
We want the manager of the COM
pany." HE 10 at home tending
baby; will send for him; here he
Is" "Say Nj. Mansger, how
many men did you employ during
the Cleaveland hard times in 1896. "
Prom fifteen to twenty-five men.
"Whst wages did You pay" Zone
dollar and seventy.6ve cents to three
dollars per day." How many
men do you employ now and
what wages do yoy pay" 1--WE dc
not hire any mel and pay no wa,
ges. We can find no sale for ou,
products and have been compelled
to close our works." How many
farmers ere better off to day thar
they were two years ago. Can you
find one in Lincoln county, Car
there be such thing ss prosperity
when the people are not prosper
