MINNESOTA does not intend to
lose its reputation as a bread and
butter state, for if the present
plans are put into effect thirty
five new creameries will be estab-
lished in the state during the COM
ing SEASON.. That will give the
North Star total of $50 with an
annual output of 1000, 900 pounds
of butter. If this amount of but
ter was packed in three-pound jars
it would make a line $500 miles
long, or more than the distance
from here to the Pacific coast.

The postal authorities at Wash
ington has fixed penalty of $500
on persons for taking mail out of
the Office other than their own.
All postmasters are liable to make
mistakes and get mail in the
wrong boxes, and the law is that
the people must look at their
mail before leaving the Office, and
if they have any other mail than
their own it must be returned at
once. That it is the postmaster's
fault makes no difference. This
includes newspapers as well as
etters.

THE coal trust has decided not
20 grant any reduction from list
prices, because the customers have
been getting the benefit OF them.
The anthracite barons two or
three years ago adopted plan of
selling coal from April LIST at fifty
cents less than list prices, reducing
this discount ten cents per month
till September LIST when list prices
were reached again. The object
was to induce retailers to stock up
in summer. But experience proved
that the retailers not only stocked
up but sold out the coal at reduced
prices to people who wanted to put
it in during the summer. The
barons couldn't bear to see any
body escaping any part of their
exactions; and so beginning this
year there will be no discounts at
all.

Mr.. HEARST, who is galloping
through his fathers millions is
very busy telling how President
Roosevelt has spent a large amonlnt
of money in improving the White
House interior and grounds. He
thinks this a reason why Hearst
should succeed him, The people
of the United States demand that
their chief executive have things
to his liking and in. keeping with
the important position he occupies.
This is not a bankrupt country or
one that does business upon a
shabby plan. Mr.. Hearst will have
to devise some better reason for
the turning over of the admins
tration than the one he is now de-
voting so much attention to. 1t
strikes no cord of sympathy in the
American breast. It is too small
to be considered, and not single
vote will be changed due to this
screed on the part of the aspirant
for the highest honor our people
have to bestow. Mr.. Hearst may
as we'll spare his millions and his
ink. Mr.. Roosevelt will be the
next president of the United
States Ore

A Home Organization.

One acquainted with music
can realize the patience and hard
work required to master and rem
der successfully piece of orches-
ira music.
The Arion Orchestra, of this
city, is now in its second year.
Last year this organization, COM
posed of young people of Corval-
lis, purchased a few pieces of
music and instruments for the
purpose of amusement more than
for a financial venture. They
practiced regularly and diligent-
ly once or twice each week and
finally made their first appearance
at the opening of the Hotel Cor
Wallis. From that time on they
began to add new music and ad-
ditional musicians, and were soon
furnishing the music for all the
dances in the city. @
This winter the orchestra was
reorganized with the intention of
making it a better paying and
more successful aggregation.
They have added new music and
now have nearly 500 worth OF
music, alone. The latest addi-
tion is a fine Doub'e B string
bass costing $50. The orchestra
played for the Thanksgiving ball
given by the O. A. c. cadet off
GERS, and the fact that the music
gave entire satisfaction speaks
we'll for the young musicians.
The orchestra is composed OF
the following members: Firs,
violin, Joseph Henkle; piano,
Miss Gladys Moore; first cornet,
Harold Woodcock; second cornet,
Miss Mary Danneman; clarinet,
Delbert Proebstel; trombone,
Royal Shaw: drums. Roy Irvine,

his residence in Polk. the county
people became stockholders OF,
started aud operated the Ellen
dale Wooden Mills. After the
mill had run considerable time
its business affairs became in
volved and largely indebted and
was on the verge of insolvency.
The board of directors put Judge
Moor in charged of its affairs,
and under his able management
in a few years he placed the in
dustry successfully on its feet aid
in good business condition after
which it ran successfully for a
number of years. Judge Moor
became stockholder of the First
National Bank of Corvallis,
January the 18th, 1892, and in
January 1894, he was elected
one of its directors, and in Janu-
ary 1896, he was elected vice
president of the bank, all of
which positions he ably ind fai h
fully filled until his death. Un il
Affections overlook him during
the sickness of which he died,
with one exception he was always
present at the meeting of the
board of directors of the bank
and his counsels were always
found conservative and faithful.
Those who were closely acquaint-
ed with Judge Moor readily
that there are few men
in any community who possess
the safe business qualities and
able to give as good counsel as he
who has just crossed over the
river into the great unknown be-
yond.
