California Consolidated Petroleum Company

This is an age of consolidation and the
California Consolidated Petroleum Com
pany is born of this successful principle.
The "ten-cent" oil companies are of few
days and full Of trouble. They must
strike oil in their first wells or burst, for
stock is killed. If they survive they will
be swallowed by the California Consol-
dated or the Standard, for such is the
history OF the oil business. There is only
room for two oil concerns like the Cal
ifornia Consolidated or the Standard on
the Pacific Coast. These two giants will
inevitably control the oil business Of Cal
ifornia, and it is those wise enough to
see this who are buying stock OF the Cal
ifornia Consolidated Petroleum Company
which stock is likely, ere long, to make
its holders rich. Already the stocks of
few other oil companies, bought at nom
inal figure, are worth on the market sew
ers hundred dollars per share. and the
time is not distant when a small block OF
this stock may mean competence to the
fortunate owner. Certain it is that the
present price will soon be doubled, and
those desiring worcestershire oil stock in
a solid company, backed by solid men,
will dc well To carefully read the COM
pany's ad. which appears in this issue.
Stock redeemabe en- demand at any time
within 80 days from daie OF certificate.
All money paid in installments refunded

Methodists at District Conference

The District Conference and Epworth
League Convention OF the NJ. f. church
was held at Heppner, Oregon, from June
9th to 10th. The district was well rep
resented, having thirty-three ministers
and the presiding elder, Rev. Robert
Warner, in attendance. DR.. U. F. Hawk
OF The DaIles was chosen as the secre-
tary OF the conference. The business of
the district was taken up and disposed
of in very pleasant manner. The
meeting from first to last was charac-
terized by spirit of unity and all
seemed to enjoy themselves splendidly.
Among the leading ministers in attend
ance were Drs. Spa ulding, Nickelsen,
Baker and Evans. Many others spoke
encouraging words to the people. DR..
Evans OF Goldendale gave the League an
excellent talk on Saturday evening on
League Echoes, reviewing the work of
the National Convention held last season
at indianapolis. DR.. Spaulding OF Hood
River spoke on the subject of "Our Ma
ton, Our Church and the American Sa-
LOOM" DR.. Nlckelsen is The pastor of the
First Church at Heppner, Ore. Having
the work of entertaining the conference
resting on him of course occupied great
deal OF his time, but notwithstanding he
was always at his post ready to do his
part OF the work. The Doctor, though
young in years, has very bright future
before him and will doubtless be great
benefactor to the church. DR.. Hines, q
veteran in Methodsm in the Northwest,
having come to the coast in SO, was also
present. He spoke Interestingly and ell
oquently on pioneer work.
Among those present were Miss Smith
and Rev. 7. A. Davis of North Yakima.

Change In Mr.. Bryan.

What wonderful change has
come over the American people in
their estimate of the ability, states
manship and political honesty of
Hon. VIM. J. Bryan!
In 1896 the press and people
spoke of him ;.s, ''the boy orator of
the Platte" ga meteor passing
over the political horizon" the man
seeking to buy Office with 5o-cent
dollar" and as ''the man who
would never be heard of after the
campaign was over"
In this year of 1900 the press and
people say he is the most wonderful
orator of the age. Instead of being
meteor he is planet of the first
magnitude. AS statesman he
ranks with the first and foremost
of the country and instead of dis
appearing from the political stage
they say he is brighter, stronger
and more popular than in 1896 lie
has grown and is still growing in
popular favor every day.
The metropolitan papers of this
country that tried and did belittle
him in 1896 now give him credit as
being a great, good and honest man,
statesman and an orator, and it is
only left for little pop guns with
soft paper wads to shoot harmlessly
at him. Mr.. Bryan has grown
wonderfully in the estimation of
his friends but far more SO in the
estimation of his honest political
enemies.-Blackfoot Mail.

Eight for Silver Now.

The Denver News says editorial
":
The financial Legislation passed
by the republican party since the
election of Mr.. Mckinley. the state
ments Of men prominent in the
councils of the party and the char
acter of the platforms being adopt
ed by the conventions of the party
in different states make it absolute
~ certain that continuance of the
party IN power means continuance
of the anti-silver policy TO which it
is committed. It means more than
that-it means that the silver now
held by the government and amount
ing to some hundreds of millions
will be thrown on the market and
will be replaced in the currency by
national bank notes if 1t is replaced
at all.
If Mr.. Mckinley be re elected
this fall, with house and senate in
agreement with him, the country is
certain to be given another dose of
financial Legislation in the interest
of the national bank combine, and
every measure of that kind which
is passed must make the restoration
of bimetallism more difficult.
We have no hesitation in saving
that those who are against silver
fight this year, but profess to favor
a fight at some time in the future are
really against making any fight at
