the new railroad, was at Cape Jellison last
Thursday.
There are forty-fve boarders at the Trites

Spellman boarding house, besides several
smaller boarding houses.
The workmen expect to be through for
this winter on the big wharf in January.
There will be some finishing touches to be
put on the wharf in the spring.
Mr.. James White has a new store at the
Cape with groceries and other things. Mr..
and Mrs. White have good trade and ex-
pect to remain here permanently. They
have Miss Partrdge's photographs of the
wharf for sale.

Point. which will be one of the finest build
lngs on the line

President Roosevelt: 1t is the mans
moral quality, his attitude toward the
great questions which concern all hui
manitY. his cleanliness of life, his power
to do his duty toward himself and
toward others, which really count; and
if we substitute for the standard Of
personal judgment which treats each
man according to his merits another
standard in accordance with which all
men Of one class are favored and all
men of another class Disseminated
against, we shall do irreparable damage
to the body polite. l believe that our
people are too sane, too self-respecting,
too tit for self-government, ever to
adopt such an attitude.
This government is not and never
shall De government by a plutocracy.
This government is not and never shall
be government by mob. 1t shall con
tinue to be in the future what it has
been III the past, a government based
on the theory that each man, rich or
poor is to be treated simply and solely
Oh his worth as man, that all his per
sonai aud property rights are to be
safeguaIded, and that he is neither to
wrong others nor to suffer wrong from

Our fine weather of last week was most
thoroughly enjoyed, even though it did
prove weather breeder" as an old resi-
dent used to say. Sunday was most tenn
pestuOus day,-Our first real snow Storm
going from bad to worse as the day pro-
ceeded, so that it was impossible to hold
service again. The roads Monday morning
were badly drifted, though as the snow
was light it was not such hard work to get
through as sometimes.
The Ladies' Aid Society will meet this,
Thursday, afternoon with Mrs. Simeon T.
Ellis. 1t is hoped a large number will be
present to finish the articles now in prepa-
ration and also to make final arrangements
for the coming Christmas "sale," which will

ing to donate articles will kindly pass them
in by next Monday. The society extends
thanks for past favOrS in this direction and
OF course will appreciate continuance of
the same.
Miss Harriet D. Hichborn will have a
Christmas sale of pictures at Treats drug
store. The collection will include local
views, particularly those of the new rail-
road bridges, stations, piers, ETC.. in photo
graphic cOlors and also the hand-painted
water color platinotypes. The panorama
view of the Cape Jellison pier is already on
sale at the post Office. This gives fine
view the big, busy place up to date and
will be an attractive and convenient article
to send to distant friends, particularly for
mer residents of the town, as a Christmas
remembrance and souvenir of home.
The railroad is we'll patronized, as many
as 20 and 80 passengers arriving and de-
parting on some trains. Many people come
about the village and inspect the terminal
and depart on the up-river train at 2.O5.
All wish to see the much talked of pier at
Cape Jellison, which is certainly immense,
being 1000 feet long, 1000 feet of which is
200 feet wide and 600 feet 80 foot wide. The
smaller or bulkhead pier is 1900 feet long
by 40 feet wide. This is quite pier in it.

The Portland city election, resulting
in the choice of Democratic mayor,
has caused much comment, and the
Democratic press generally has ascrib-
ed the defeat Of Mayor Baxter to- the
Sturgis commission, although the Port
land Press says that 1.-The Sturgis CON-
mission had not been near the city, and
that the vigorous enforcement has
been 10y the city," If we are not mis-
taken that was not the issue raised by
the opposition to Mayor Baxter during
the campaign. His proposed park sys-
TEN was tile chief object of attack; and
no doubt III Portland, as elsewhere,
there is a minority opposed to public
Improvements, and i'll this case it may
have been sufficient to turn the scale.

CURED BY CuTICuRA
Now Six Years Old with Thick
Hair and Clean Scalp.
Cure Permanent.

"My baby was six weeks old when
the top of her head became covered
with thick scales, which would peel
and come off, taking the hair with it.
Itwould soon form again and be as bad
as before. My doctor said it was
Eczema, and prescribed an ointment,
which did no good. I then tried cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment. 1 washed
her head in warm water and Cuticura
Soap and gently combed the scales
off. They did not come back and her
hair grew out fine and thick. She is
now year and half old, and has no
trace of Eczema

ABOUT INVESTMENTS.

We are asked about safe investments
for money. In what can man invest
his surplus 80 that It Will be safe and
give a fair interest return? The best
thing we can see Is good farm land.
There are millions of acres of land
which viii not only pay Mt least per
cent In the way of share products as
rent, but which nre absolutely certain
to increase In value from % to 100 per
cent inside Of fifteen years. These
lands are scattered all over the north
west, the southwest and the Pacific
slope. Any good land which may be
irrigated ~ certain to be worth 500 an
acre when settled and improved, and
quite likely much more. Amy land
which will produce fifty bushels OF
corn, twenty bushels OF wheat, thirty
Of barley or forty OF oats for an aver
age OF ten years is also worth 500 an
acre. Any land which will grow good
crops Of blue grass will also pay q per
cent on such a valuation forsmeat max
ing and dairy purposes, so IL you have
money to invest and know OF any such
lands which can be bought for. less
money than this 1t is the best place to
fput II, for nothing Is surer In this world
than this, that as our population keeps
on Increasing, as 1t is bound to do, and
as very much Of our heretofore produc.
| tive acres grow more and more Inn
poverished, as 1t certainly Is doing, the
good lands OF the country are bound To
command a high premium. There arc
thousands Of farms In the newer west
now developing, perhaps not yet touch.

vestment worth far more than the best

IN an agricultural way. These farms
were natural blue graW and clover

not appreciate the fact that they had
one OF the best dairy sections OF the
west, and 30 they kept on year after
year raising long nosed hogs and corn
and buying butter and running up
store bills, just getting little poorer
each year. A change came two or
three years ago. Some man heard the
COW gospel preached and got some
cows. He did so well that others TOOK
II up until great agricultural revolul
ton was soon In progress. Today this
community is one OF the leading dairy
and butter producing sections OF the
west. Less acres of corn are raised,
but twice as many bushels to the aero
as formerly; everybody sows clover,
the people have quit running store bills
and pay as they go, the mortgages are
looking sick, the soil Is getting better
and more productive each year, big
red barns are showing up all over the
country, more and better hogs are rails
ed and, to sum It all up in sentence,
the entire community is being regen-
Grated by the COW. This is an old
story--always works this way. Why
not try It IL in a grain raising, grain

guarantee that It will work with You
as 1t always has with others. Put
twenty cows on the quarter section

them and you will work out your own

the old way, and the settlement Of your
estate will DO mighty short Job for

Offer ~ Rejected.

Fall River, Mass, Oct. 23.--The Fall
River textile council, representing the
organized cotton mill operatives Of the
city, has decided 10 reject the offer
made by the manufacturers assocla-
ton last week TO advance wages five
per cent. and introduce a proht-shar.
Ing plan. The council had requested
the restoration OF the reduction OF 121s
rer cent which went Into effect July
rs, 1904. No immediate trouble in the
mills IL anticipated as the result OF the
disagreement, and It Is probable that
further negotiations will be conducted
during the coming week.

MEXICAN GRAIN CROP.

Bakers to Reduce Size
of Loaves.

Mexico City Oct. 20. THE short
ness Of the wheat crop is greater
than was estimated few weeks ago,
and millers are looking for the entire
removal of the duty on American and
Canadian wheat by the first Of next
year. The city bakers have reduced
the size of their loayes, asserting that
IL 10 impossible TO give the same
weight as formerly There are some
stocks OF wheat in the hands OF large
farmers here, but not sufficient TO bring
down the price, which Is steadily ris-
ing. The price OF corn Is also rising,
the advance being over so per cent. as
compared with the prices OF August.
This causes hardship among the poor.
There is q possibility Of the duty on
corn being abated.

armrLIcIrY IN LIVING.

A study Of simplicity In housekeep-
ing would tighten the work OF many a
tired housewife. There Is a great deal
of fretting and hard work done In
many homes solely with reference to
what outsiders will say and think.
The social tyrant is most merciless
one, and few women there are who
have the nerve TO defy II. sim, as be.
tween killing ones self In order to pla-
cate this tyrant and taking life easier
In defiance OF what anybody thinks or
says, we would Just naturally take the
easier path and let society chew the
rag all II wants to. And, now we are on
this subject, we would like to say that
because she does not want her daugh.
Ter to work as hard as She did when O
girl and because It involves some lit
tie trouble at first to train the daugh-
tiers to efficiently help In the household
work, there Is many a mother who moi
only does her girls positive injury
but makes her own burdens very much
harder to carry. There should be some
portion of the work Of the home fol
every member OF the household to d.
and do regularly. We call to mind on'
mother whose girls were all boys. foui
Of them. and she had so trained these
little rascals that there was hardly
any kind OF housework which theJ
could not do and do well. Yet how few
mothers there are who would eve
think for a moment OF training boz
TO be useful domestic help?

A Montana stockman related to us
recently some OF the troubles which be-
set his business. He said that four
years ago he made shipment Of 100
horses intended for IN eastern market,
that the road which accepted the con
signment kept these horses for 107
hours without water during the heat Of
August weather and that when they
were unloaded and watered 800 OF
them died inside OF thirty minutes,
while the rest were utterly ruined. A
suit is pending TO recover the value OF
the horses, which were simply slaugh-
tered by the company in direct viola
tion Of the law which requires stock to
be unloaded, fed and watered every
twenty-eight hours.

Many man can find very inter
estlng object lesson in the unproductive
acres on his farm. Nearly every man
will find that he has more or less acres
which produce little or nothing year
after year and that the burden Of crop
production on his farm Is confined to
only part Of his land. These unpront-
able acres may be marsh and should be
tile drained, or they may be brush
acres. when the brush should be re-
moved and chance given for the
grass to grow and make pasture, or
they may be hillsides too steep for cul-
tivation and should be set to growing
trees.
