WHERE AMERICAN MONEY GOES.

Most of the worlds richest women
come from America, a painstaking

of those who take husbands in Europe
marry British peers, bringing with
them enormous dowries. Some 500
wealthy American girls have married
titled foreigners, and their total dowry
amounts to more than 100000, 900,
says a London dispatch.
The most heavily lowered bride
was the Duchess of Roxburghe (nee

SWEDISH EDUCATION.

Sloyd instruction is the most char
acteristic feature of Swedish educa-
tion. 1t is Euclid in wood. That
bugbear of the average schoolboy
used to geometrical forms to develop
the reasoning powers of his pupils.
The sloyd student works not for the
sake of the object, but for himself.
Only work based on study OF the
child will be for the benefit of the
child.
1t follows that instruction is largely
individual, and in order to avoid the
danger of instruction becoming rou-
tine the teachers are changed each
course. Tuition is wo-fold-theoret-
ical and practical. The lectures
which are delivered in three languages
swedish, English and German-are
usually given in the open air, and
metimes take the form of a general
conversation.

The rabbit industry. however, is yet
in its infancy, and judging from the
developments of the last two or three
years, is capable of great expansion.
The rabbit carcasses are put in cold
storage and shipped to England and
points in the far east. Thousands of
crates of these carcasses are turned
out every day. But this is only a part
of the whole profit. There is good
money in canned rabbit as well, but
the greatest returns of all are derived
from the skins.
Last year the value of the exported
skins exceeded that of the carcasses.
Every week about $50 tons of skins
are sold in sydney and fully 100 tons
more in Melbourne. The price of the
skins has advanced so per cent since
last January. So profitable, indeed,
has become this part of the industry
that many trappers are devoting them
selves to it entirely, discarding the
carcasses and retaining only the skins.

our people need to recognize the fact
that we are living in a commercial
age; that the mastery by man of the
forces of nature have practically elm
mated the elements of time and dis
tanee, and made the earth as one.
Therefore, no maritime state can be
supremely great unless it is fully in
touch with the shipping centers of the
world. The people of Oregon, there
fore, must see to it that there is Gre
ated a coasting trade which shall util-
iZe and enrich her every harbor;
trade where the coasting vessels are
owned at home, and where the con-
trolling forces thereof shall have
special interest in Oregon affairs.
This must be supplemented by lines
of steamboats, reaching from these
borders across the Pacific to exchange
the products of the Old World and
the New.

RABBIT REDEEMS HIMSELF.

According to the statements of r.

the rabbits, which so long were the
scourge of Australia, are now becom-
ing a prolific source of revenue to the
farmers there.
The rabbit, Mr.. Godfrey states, has

little animal brings fully $4,000, 900
a year to the commonwealth.

Is complete without a return to every

be difficult to find at this time.
The address appears in the special
edition of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce Bulletin and is being used
as part of tine advertising matter be-

II must be source of qualification
to every citizen of the state to recog-
nize that this meeting of the State

of some of those things for which the

the state of Oregon, and her leader

agsuredly one day be recognized.
The eXcluslveness and conservatism
which marked the state in its earlier
history had their origin more in
the peculiar and isolated condition ex-
listing than in the temperament of her
people. This has been amply demon
strated by the eager response to ap-
peals in recent years for a united
sentiment and an onward and con-
certed movement for the development
of the latent resources of her magni-
flcent territory.
The construction of the portage

is unity of purpose among our peo-
pie to establish the trans-Pacific

to which the state is entitled.
The people of Oregon, too, should
earnestly cooperate with the move

seekers to the beauty places within
the state and the grand and imposing
panorama which can be presented to
visitors here.
The natural scenery of the Colum-

many particulars, surpasses it, while
the combination of sea and mountain
along the coast, with its background
of verdure, presents a scene which
cannot he rivaled upon either conti-

mountains are as attractive as those
of Switzerland and the valleys of
southern Oregon are as charming as

The beauties of Crater lake and

Dowie shall In the future. as In the
past, be acknowledged the First Apes
tie by the members of the church he
has instituted the credit of being the
founder of perhaps the most religious
movement of modern times must be
accorded him.
Since his arrival In Chicago
in 1890 his rise to power and
wealth has been practically been un-
checked. Except for his unfortunate
trip to New York in 1903, in which
much money was expended and In a
measure the prestige Of the church
lowered as consequence Of the nc
knowledge failure of the visit, he las
made few mistakes. The financial
storms which at times threatened the
stability OF Zion City have all been
weathered, II not with ease at least
without disaster.
The events of DR.. Dowie's life that
need recording may be summed up as
follows:
Dowie Chronology.
1S47, May 25-Born at Edinburgh,
Scotland.

1906-Makes Wilbur Glenn Voliva
deputy general overseer Of the Chris
tian Catholic church and the Zion in
dustries. Repudiated by voliva and
his people.
Gave Enemies Chance.
That DR.. Dowie's conduct at Zion
was not at all times circumspect seems
to be beyond doubt. Diversions not
strictly suited to a man of his age
and position-his participation, for in

Claim Advocacy Of Polygamy.
That John Alexander contemplated
polygamy and at one time threatened
to set the example in person is assert
ed by Voliva himself and by the
overseers. They regard the obsession

as evidence of his state of alteration
OF mind. Polygamy, 1t Is understood,
explains the antagonism Of Mrs.
Dowie and Gladstone Dowie to the
first apostle.
The verse of Scriptures on which
DR.. Dowie Is said to have based his
advocacy Of polyamy Is the following:
"And seven shall take hold of one
man, saying: We will eat our own
bread and wear our own apparel, only
let us be called by thy name to take
away our reproach Isaiah All.
Early Troubles in Zion.
During the early days Of Zion City
there was much prosperity and Dowie
paid his workers currency. He found
this tedious. and to evade It, evolved
a scheme Of paying by coupons or
script. redeemable "some day" by the
central financial government Of Zion.
These coupons were issued In enor-
nous quantities and used as substi-
tute for currency.

drove real money out Of the city.

counsel. and other leaders protested
to .cowie against the issue. Dowie an
swered by keeping the printing presses
working overtime.
The coupons were in time dumped
on Dowie for everything purchasable
in the city. The income from the mer-
chandise sold on the outside was the
only real money coming In, and that
was not sufficient. The climax was a
