Would Form Society.

Gen. T. M. Anderson issues
the following address to the Sons
OF the American Revolution:
The Oregon Society of the Sons
of the American Revolution was
organized not for ancestor wor-
ship or as an exclusive social or
ganization, but as an association
for Patriotic Endeavor. AS ex-
pressed in it's constitution, it is to
perpetuate the memory of the
men of the American Revolution
to revive the spirit of that time,
to carry out the purpose ex-
pressed in the preamble of the
Constitution of our Country, to
oppose by moral means the spread
of anarchical ideas and lawless-
ness and to draw together in a
fraternal union all the descend
ants of the patriots of the Revo-
luton, to cultivate civic virtues,
and to maintain distinctiyelv
American principles.
The board of managers of the
Oregon society appeals to the
members to take up actively and
earnestly its patriotic pror agan-
da. There are civic duties apart
from political action which every
citizen should endeavor. to per
form. The maintenance of law
the condemnation Of dishonesty
and the suppression of anarchy.
The society encourages the pupils
of our public schools in the study
of our national history and main
tains an annual prize essay com
petition. The more important
task remains to Americanize
grown up Americans and impress
upon our naturalized citizens
their duties and responsibilities
to the State.
Members are asked to attend
the called meetings to devise
methods to carry out it's purposes.
Eligible citizens who approve it's
objects are urged to join the So
c1ety. The society has many gen
Biological and historical records
which are open to applicants for
inspection.
THos. M. ANDERSON,
President.
Col. J. K. Philips, the only
member in this county, would be
pleased to confer with gentlemen
believing themselves eligible to

land, but that no power is given
fer the Board to start contest it.
self and cancel certificates of sale
for fraud.
Attorney-Genera1 Crawford
holds that the Board has power
to direct him to bring suit in the
courts to secure cancellation of
the certificate, the same as an in
sfividual may bring suit to cancel
a contract obtained bv fraud.
Mr. Watson opposed tie Attof-
ney-General on this point, argu
ing that the Board cannot order
a suit brought until deed to the
land has been issueI, when SUIT
could be brought to cancel the
deed. Both sides tdci,ly agreed
that certificates of sale Of state
land are not invulnerable in the
hands OF innocent purchasers, bnt
tuat every purchaser of a cer,i6-
cate takes 1t subject to al the
conditions that affect the original
purchaser.
The Acknowledgement admit
ted that if the State Land Board
brings suit to cancel certificates
OF sale, it must tender return OF
money paid. He doubted wheth
er it would be wise for the state,
from financial standpoint, to
cancel the sales and return the
money, for, in many instances,
the price received is as much as
the land is worth. His view
that it would not be good policy
to adopt the plan Of canceling
certificates, was based upon the
reason that this practice will raise
throughout the East the belle
that the land titles in Oregon are
unsafe and thereby discourage the
immigration.
| The Board took this matter
under advisement.

On Convict Labor.

Last issue we ran an editorial
on convict labor as applied to
road work in Oregon. A recent
issue of the Portland Labor Press
contains the following interest
ing article on the subject:
The benefits TO our state from
the possible outcome of the pres
ent movement set in motion by
the recent appointment of a state
road commission are inestimable.
This commission was provided
for by the passage by the last leg
islature of Senate Concurrent
Resolution No. 81, which pro-
vides for committee of FIVE to
examine into the feasibility of
constructing macademized road
from Portland to the south line of
the state, the work to be per-
formed by convict labor. The
commission held its initial meet
ing September 20, effected its
organization, and already has
committees at work on the prac-
tical progress of its business. It
is bou d, however, to report on
the feasibility of the proposition,
and will render its findings up
on this point as truly and hon
estly as upon any other. This is
a work that should receive the
encouragement and assistance of
every citizen of Oregon. Nothing
SO greatly improves state or a
country as good roads, and no
state has half enough of them.
The very nature of the question
at once places it beyond the con-
test of partisan politics, and moth
ing can constitute a reason for
opposition to the movement save
possible objection TO the location.
On this point it should be re-
membered that above and far be-
yond the technical premises of
the resolution, which has brought
this first commission into exist
ence, and which provides for a
certain stretch of road, is the
question of practicability of en-
ploying the convicts on the roads.
Ii it is practical to build one
good piece of road Of sufficient
to demonstrate the sue
cess of the venture, it will be
practical to keep the convicts
in road building all the
line. The principal argument
n favor Of the scheme is that it
axes the work of the convicts I
'ut of competition with the free
abor of the state by creating an
new field for their ser
ices which, except for the ques-
ion of the best possible employ
nent Of the convicts themselves.
7ould not be created for many
ears at least. The question oeI
ood roads is paramount one all
yer this nation, but nowhere
lore than in Oregon. Pause

THE END TOMORROW

At 1870 tomorrow night the
gates that have admitted thous-
ands upon thousands of people
to the Lewis and Clark Exposi-
tion in Portland will close fer
the last time. Take everything
into consideration, the Fair has
been successful beyond the
dreams Of the widest enthusiast.
It has been we'll patronized, both
by home people and people from
abroad.
One thing was very noticeable
and that was the interest mani
tested by the entire coast popu-
lation. The majority Of the
states Of the great West did
nobly by our Exposition. Many
foreign countries contributed to
make the Fair a success and the
exhibit Of our general govern
ment was Of such high order
that every visitor remarked on
it. Among our sister states
there was an absolute absence of
any petty jealousies, and this
within itself is a matter for con-
graduation.
Will the result justify? is the
question that will be asked. We
think so. It should prove a good
investment for Oregon and the
entire coast. Financially, the
supposition is, from what is
given out, that the Exposition
was successful beyond what was
hoped. At any rate, so far as
can be learned there are no debts
lowering about the Lewis and
Clark Incorporation again con-
gratulations are due and merit
ed. The management must have
been good.
The Fair has been most lib
eral education for thousands of
people. Here they saw much
that never again will they have
opportunity to see. The mind
was improved and the senses
awakened to the possibilities of
man and his ingenuity. In the
way of entertainment nothing
was lacking and pleasurable
things were in evidence on every
hand. Portland herself is. de-
serving every commendation for
the liberal price of necessary
entertainment for her guests
during their sightseeing sojourn
within her limits.
Thousands of eastern people
were attracted to Oregon and
the entire coast who, had it not
been for the. Fair, would not
have been seen in the west.
True, many of them, a large
majority, in fact, have returned
to their homes. This was as
should have been expected, but
many have remained with us to
assist in developing our country
and her resources. Those who
returned home are certain to
talk of US as a people and of our
country and in either case we
have no fear of the results. For
years to come they will talk and
this talk will be our advertise
nent. Many Of them will re-
turn just as soon as they can
dispose of their interests in the
East. VIII the Fair pay? Wait

Hot Time For Jack Egan.

Jack Egan, we'll known farmer living
near Lmerne, was badly burned in a Pc
scnliar manner early Sunday morning.
/ Eean had been in town celebrating, and
started to drive home. He got down
near the Bradwen home, on the south
side, and lost control of his team. The
horses ran into narrow place between
two buildings, detaching themselves from
the wagon and harness, throwing Egan
out. A bottle of whiskey in his pocket
was broken, the contents being spilled
over the lower part of his body. Feeling
the cold liquid trickling down, Egan
struck match to find out the trouble,
with the result that it was revealed to
him in a sensational manner. The liquor
took FIRE, and the mans clothing blazed
brightly. M. e. Howard, who was going
home, heard Egan's screams, and ran to
his assistance. he tore the burning
clothing loose, and with the aid of severa.
neighbors, Egan was carried to the pump
and placed under the spout, where the
blaze was put out.-Belle Plain Iowa)
