Horses Stolen
TWO MEN CAPTURE HORSES AND
BUGGY. IN MoNoNGALlA
COUNTY.

MoRGANTowN. Sept. This
community is considerably stirred up
over the stealing of two horses, two
buggtes and sets of harness in this
county last night. The horses be.
longed to Garrison Mcclure and Geo.
Poole, while ono of the buggles and
sets Of harness belonged to Dr. Rine-
hart, of Cassville. Two men were
seen at Blacksville with one horse
hitched to buggy and leading the
other. They went toward Wheeling.
1t is likely they viii be caught. The
same parties probably stole buggy
from George Kussart, of Usage. but
later abandoned it.
The horsea were bright bays. A
sharp lookout is being kept for the
thieves in various parts of the coun-
try.

'PRUNE
PICKING
BEGUN
A Large Crop of Good Quality
Will Be This Seasons
Product

A few growers began picking their
petite prunes this week. Most all
will begin during next week, many
commencing Monday.
The prune outlook for this season
is very promising. The output seems
to depend more on the capacity of
the drier than on the amount of
fruit on the trees. Tillson, in speak
Ing of the prune outlook to a Journal
reporter, said: 81 travelled all over
the Liberty and Rosedale sections
last Saturday and Sunday, and the
prospects are that the crop In these
parts will be large. The fruit will
be small but OF fine quality. should
Judge they will average about so to
the pound"
There seems TO nothing that would
point to higher prices. The output
in California is the largest in the
history OF the state. According to
authorities. California's prune pro-
duct this year will be at least 2OO,-
100000 pounds. There is enough
prunes on the trees at present TO
supply the consumption demand OF
the United States for three years.
With this enormous crop the
prices will probably remain about as
they are at present.

and cities; an area one-third larger
than the six New England states,
with population one-sixth as large,
and a capacity for supporting ten
times its present number. That is
Oregon as the writer knows it now
and has known in during an actual
residence of fifty-three years.
Oregon is not a Wonderland and
its history is not a romance. There
has been little OF the sensational in
our past history. 1t may be freely
admitted that our state differs from
all others in the far west in this
particular, The early history of
California was a romance. The late
developments of Washington have
been marvellous. Oregon, having
within its borders the oldest settled
region of the northwest, has kept an
even pace. Sturdy pioneers. who
with their families faced the dangers
and hardships of the long journey of
the plains, began To settle in the
Willamette valley as early as lS43.
There were cultivated farms in
western Oregon years before Kansas
or Nebraska had known the touch
of a plow. Portland, Oregon, was a
town OF twelve hundred or two
thousand people before Omaha was
named or known. Steamboats, were
carrying passengers on the William
ette river before there was a foot
OF railway west OF the Mississippi
Yet in material development Oregon
has fingered far in the rear of other
regions named.
The reasons for this are very sim.
pie. The first transcontinental rail-
ways found their terminal at the
Golden Gates on the south and Pueet
sound on the north. While this did
not hinder many home seekers from
reaching us by the branch lines. IL
naturally tended to locate large in
vestors and the enterprises 10 the
north and south OF us.
While this has for a time in n
sense kept Oregon in the rear of her
neighbors. 1t has blinded no one to
her nnal possibilities. These possi.
oilities are now coming to the front
In the last few months many eastern
capitalists have been investigatins
our region and some OF them have
been investing. Electric roads are
being talked OF in many directions
several franchises have been granted
by towns and cities. rights Of wav
are being purchased. and work ON
some OF these roads has already com. i
meneed. New railway enterprises
are being planned to cross opr
mountains and bring our unused
hareors into touch with the world |
In addition 20 all this, eneree,ie I
home builders are buying our unI,n. /
proved lands, and II seems ~ AMI
close observers quite certain that :, I
the matter OF material development
the day OF small things is in the mast
for Oregon.
But In the nRal analysis" wha,
does Il all mean. What dos !,
mean for those who are work,n~
and praying for Christian Civ,1,,s
tion for Our County" Surely n can
mean nothing less than a desire o.
a deeper faith. more Determines
purpose. a more willing saerlnes. a
