R. NJ. Hall, advertising agent for the
o. r. & ~, discussed railroad adver-
tising and the work his company is do
ing in spreading information about Ore
gon among the people of the East. Mr..
Hall said in part
1t is useless to impress upon you the
results from exploiting our Oregon
scenery. Here only year and | am

entire world has nature been more Law

lofty mountains, whose snow-capped
peaks defy the suns wa-mest rays, and
look down upon fertile valleys that fair

grain and fruit. Journey to Switzerland,
stand on some mountain and gaze DER a
landscape of lake, forest, alpine crag and
snow-caps; then return and look once
more from some Oregon height, letting
the eye grasp at single sweep the pan.

as the sun drops behind the western
mountains into the bosom of the ocean,
and the memory of Swiss grandeur will
merge into the reality-0regon, the
beautiful, the gem state of the Pacific.
To you busy newspaper men, let me
say that the truth about Oregon is good
enough, The facts do not need stretch
ing, or coloring, but don't forget to keep
everlastingly at it in your news and edi-
torial columns. Thousands will read
what you say and thousands will come.
Once here, let them wander awhile mid
our golden fields of grain, our perfumed
orchards, and beautiful forests, let them
drink Of our healthiul waters, breathe
our pure air, and they will join with us
in saying:

About them gathered, one by one,
The battling mysteries OF their wayl
To Westward yonder, peak. on peak,
The glistening ranges rose and fell
All, but among that hundred paths,
Which led Alright? Could any tell?
Brave Lewis and Immortal Clark!
Bold spirits OF that best crusade,
You gave the waiting World the spark
That thronged the emplre-paths you made
But standing on that snowy height,
Where Westward yon wild rivers whirl,
fhe guide who led your hosts Alright
Was that barefoot shoshone girl!
You halted in those dim arcades-
You faltered by those battling peaks
You doubted in those pathless glades,
But ever ever true she speaks!
Where lay the perllous SHOWS of spring,
Where streams their wes ward course for
sock,
The widest mountain haunts to her
Were as an open picture book,
Where er you turned in wonderment
In that wild empire, nnsurveyed,
Unerring still, she pointed West
unfailing, all your pathways laid
Sac nUdd, toward the setting sun
She raised finger toward the sea-
The c'o>ed gates opened, one by one
And showed your path of Destiny!
The wreath of Triumph give to her,
She led the conquering captains West;
She chartered first the trails that led
The hosts across yon mountain crests!
Barefoot, she toiled the forest paths,
Where now the course of Empire speeds;

The Travelling Fakir.
East Oregonian,


The East 0regouian takes this meth
cd of warning the people against fakirs
who come into the country in the guise
of legitimate business men. Not Il
month passes that does not bring some
CRATER into the country. These par
asites come under various guises. One
of them is selling groceries at greatly
reduced price. Beware His stuff i
doctored, and If examinedby the fool
commissioner as at La Grande, last
week, will I've found to contain at least
SO per cent adulteration. Another is a
travelling tailor, who will take half

buggy or set of harness, and they are
Cheap" sure enough. Another ell
larges pictures and puts your picture
in a $6 frame which don't cost six bits.

Woods, Water, Beer and Cancer.
Inter Ocean.

Inter Ocean,
DR.. Alfred Wolff, as the result of a
wide and careful study of the statistics
of cancer in Europe and America,
reaches several interesting conclusions.
l. He finds that cancer is most COM
mon in thick ly wooded and well-water-
ed districts.
,. He discovers that all the districts
of high cancer mortality are those in
which beer or cider is largely drunk.
Bavaria, for instance, shows the high
eet cancer death rate in Germany, and
Salisbury in Austria. Both are great
beer-drinking districts In France
there is the most marked contrast be-
tween the high cancer mortality in the
heer-drinkiug departments and the low
cancer death rate elsewhere. DR.. Wolff
also finds that the increased cOnsump-
ton of beer in England of late years
has been accompanied by rising can
Ger mortality.
3. DIR. WOlff's researches indicate that
cancer is cnntagiuus, aud that race and
heredity have much less to do with the
disease than environment and habits
Finally, he concludes that the in
temperate Use of alcohol, and especially
of beer, is probably the chief cause of
cancer. He does not pretend TO say
what it is In beer that conveys cam
Ger infection. That is point for fur
ther investigation.
Of course it is also possible to contend
from DE-. Woltl's facts that cancer is the
prodscI Of soil well shaded by forests
aud Of humid climate rather than of
beer-drinking
Out of the three observed facts which
occur togetheT-sbundan wn0ds and
water, copious heeT-drinking, and prev-
alence of cancer-itis is evidently possible
that the third ma be the effect of both

Can you forget, loved Western land,
The glory of her deathess deeds?
In yonder city, glory crowned,
Where art will vie with art to keep
The memories of those heroes green
The flush of conscious pride should leap
To see her fair memorial stand
Among the honOred names thai be
Her face toward the sunset, still
Her finger lifted toward the sea!
Beside you, on Fame's pedestal,
Be hers the glorious fate to stand
Bronzed, barefoot, yet patron SAINT,
The keys of empire in her hand!
The mountain gates that closed to you
Swung open as she led the way
So let her lead that hero host
When comes their glad memorial day!

Notification of Acceptance.

Hon. e. l.. Smith, Hood River, Or
Dear Sir: Answering your telegram of
October %, inviting the Oregon Press
AssOciOtiOn to hold its next annual
meeting in the premium fruit district
of the United States, permit me to
officially inform you that said invita-
tion was unanimously accepted not.
withstandng the fact that the worlds s
fair management at st. Louis extended
very cordial invitation for our asso-
citation to meet there.
Our members well know the fame of
River, and the members of the Oregon
Press Association have ever praised that
section of the universe.
Hood River had able champions on
the floor of the convention in the per-
SONS of two of her citizens, Edward N.
Blythe of the Hood River Glacier, who,
following the example Of our illustrious
ancestor, Mr.. Adam, raised Cain by
presenting to each and every member
one of those five-to-the-peck apples,
and Mrs. Edyth Tozier Weatherred,
publisher of the Exposition.
We know that Hood River has the
worlds record for Strawberries, that
Grandma Munra is conducting the
Country Club there, and that my old
time teacher, John Leland Henderson,
can swim farther and faster than any
steer that ever tackled the icy waters
of the Columbia, therefore it is believed
that nothing additional need be said
in order to bring to Hood River next
year the largest number of members of
the Oregon Press Association that ever
assembled at any gathering in the
state.
Assuring yol that future generations
will rise up from their cradles and bless
the fruit growers of Hood River for
having invited the Oregon Press Asso-
citation to assemble there in annual
convention next year, | am just plain

John Cradlebaugh in Verse Again-Albert
Tozier Writes to Hon. E. L. Smith.

And we can smile and wink the other eye.
No long-haired poet here for long can bore
you
(The fellows bold who sends these lines be-
fore You.
No yell for copy can disturb you here,
And-well you needn't even "jef7' for beer,
Because--don't start, or let the fact astound
you
There's Capital in plenty all around you,
And it's all yours, we give to you the keys,
And only say, ado with 1t what you please;"
Adding to this our inner hearts best greeting,
Regrettlng that your visit is so fieeting.
Yet of your calling would say word,
If you'll permit me longer to be heard.
There's no pursuit, in all the wide domain,
Asks more of labor or gives less ofgain,
Pins every statement closer to the fact
Claims wiser Judgment or a nicer tact.
Its tasks demand you sometimes walk alone,
With moral bravery and a stiff backbone,
Rewarded only for gallant fight
BY knowledge that you struggled for the right
Yet, If perchance you get an ugly fall,
What matters, If you batted for us all?
We're apt to say of every busy mart
The citys business is the citys "heart"-
Keen comy etition and the ceaseless strife
These, if it please you, are the city's "life"-
The boats, the cars in endless rows arrayed,
Define the well-known "arteries of trade"
The mayor and the councilmen, tits said,
Provide the citys conscience" and its
"head"-
But over all, and greater than the whole,
The city's paper is the city's soul.
What nobler aims can any calling give?
70 teach the way humanity should live,
To put our feelings in the scale with right,
And give just Judgment, should the first be
light.
The ills of vice in fitting words TO paint,
To drub sinner or to praise a saint,
To play at all times the full, manly part,
With cleanly conscience and a generous heart,
Unswayed by favor and unmoved by fear,
A smile for pleasure and for pain tear,
And charity, when others weakness calls,
That silence may catch censure ere It falls,
The foe of wrong, the steadfast friend Of right,
Long may you live TO fight the gallant fight,
And when another year be passed. why then,
Here's hoping all of us may meet again.

Wen be There With the Apples.


Portland Oregonian.
Hood River orchardists will have to
exert themselves to retain the laurels
of that section as the best apple pro-
duciHg region in the state, as Scappoose
is coming to the front in style which
is likely to'yank the bun" The finest
apples seen at the permanent exhibit
this season, and the equal of which Sec
retary LambertsOn says cannot be found
in the city, is box of three-tier North
ern Spy, sent in to be preserved for ex-
hibition, by Asa Holiday of Scappoose.
They are perfect in shape and color, and
entirely free from scab, scale and Goblin
moth, and as for size, the fact that three
tiers in width and depth fill regula-
tion box is all that need be said If
Hood River can show a finer box Of
apples now is the time to do so. Mr..
Holaday's orchard is still young, but he
supplied much fine fruit from it to be
forwarded to Commissioner Dosch at
Buffalo. He has never been obliged to
spray his trees for protection againstth
with the San Jose scale or other insect
pests. There are some old orchards
at Scappoose which have never been
troubled by such pests, and it
is thought that there is strip
of country there in which these
pests are not likely to get a foot-hold,
owing to some exposure to the breeze Of
the Columbia. A sight of this box of
three-tier Northern Spy apples and
breath of their spicy aroma will repay
any admirrr If hne fruit for a visit to
the permanent exhibit.
