April 11.-1907.
My Dear Sir: am not able to be
present mys-lf with you, therefore let
me, through you, express my apprecia-
tion Of the great work done by the
fouHling of the Carnegie Institute.
Wealth is put to a noble use when ap-
piled to pu- roses such as those the
Carnegie Institute is so we'll designed
to serve. Every such institute, every
foundation d, signed to serve the ed
ucational uplifting of our people, rep
resents just so much gain for Ameri-
can life, just so much credit for us
collectively, as a nation The success
Of our Independence is predicated up
on the high irdividual efficiency Of the
average citizen and the Carnegie In
stitute is ole Of those institutions
which tend 20 bring about this high
nigh individual efficiency.
Many thil lgs go to make up such
efficiency. There must be a sound
body; there must be physical harli-
hood and address in the use of trained
nerve and r1uscle. There must also
be a high degree Of trained intellectu-
al development, a high degree Of that
intelligence which Is only obtained
when there Is both power to act on
individual initiative and power to
act in dlsciollred ordination with
others. And finally by that training

a high type - character which sturdi-

Make War on Coyotes.

John Simkins took part in coyote
run in Spring Valley yesterday, and
saws that this exciting sport has be-
come the rage in that locality. Seven
hounds are furnished by man from
Roseburg and he is allowed a SS5
bounty on every scalp secured, Whlle
the farmers are satisfied with being rid
ofthe pestiferous animals. The owner
of the hounds is said to have averaged
s25 a day since he came to that place
Men. women and children turn out on
horse back to take part in the runs
and one who can get a scalp is as proud
Of the achievement as fox hunter Is
TO secure the brush. Tom Jennings
shot the coyote yesterday, and Mr.. sim
kins saws that he is not yet tired o.
telling his neighbors aboutit, and tina
he is an object of envy to all who toot
part in the chase.

BIG ORGAN ARRIVES
New instrument viii Furnish Music
tor Mask Skating Carnival,
Thursday Night.

Messrs. Kerslake & White OF the
Colosseum Rink, received the Military
Band organ which they awaited for so
long, Friday evening, and an expert
was sent from Portland by the EilerS
Piano House yesterday, to set up the
instrument and put it in running
order.
With this addition to their skating
rink they will be able to furnish music
continuously for both afternoon and
evening sessions, while the variety OF
their program will be limited only by
the number of rolls they choose 10
secure for the organ. They expect the
new instrument to be great drawing
card for the masked carnival that VIII
he held in the Colosseum, THURSDAY
night. Many people have already
secured costumes for that occasion
and it will undoubtedly be one OF the
most enjoyable events ever witnessed
within the big skating hall

BOURNE WILL HELP
Oregon Senator Will Use His InfIu-
ence in Securing Assistance
For Coast States.

Senator Bourne wires the Portland
Telegram from Washington as
follows:
'"Ihe Treasury Department is
receiving demands from all parts Of
the country for aid. Secretary Cortel-
you has made large deposits in New
York, believing he could thus best
relieve the country generally by
enabling New York to relieve the
balance of the banks throughout the
country.
II am doing my utmost to secure
assistance for Oregon. The President
and Secretary Cortelyou are anxious
to render the earliest possible relief.
While I am unable to specify a definite
time, personally 1 am hopeful of
securing additional Governmental
deposits within two weeks, and believe
the acute stage here in the East has
passed, and that the situation will
daily improve.
SIN my opinion, the present stu,
alton is In great measure due to the
exposures Of the last three years Of
the methods used by few financiers
in certain insurance, trust railway
and traction companies, by which
public confidence has been shaken
The fact that. Roosevelt is President
and the implicit confidence the people
have in his ability and determination
to rectify these evils has saved tht
country from the worst panic evel
known. The country generally is mos
prosperous, and with Roosevelt at th'
head the evils will be corrected ant
Legitimate business protected. Presi
dent Roosevelt has been the f1nancia
savior, instead of the wrecker, a
some of the reactionaries would tr,
and make the people believe.

ENJOYABLE social session was spent.
Vocal solos by Mrs. @. G. Coad, Mrs.
Ella J. Metzger and F. Fl. Morrison
and addresses delivered by DR.. B. d.
McCalion and J. G. VanOrsdel added
greatly to the pleasure oftheevening.
Ia. Monk amused the guests in most
original manner, by short musical
program rendered on a variety OF
instruments, ranging from the guitar
to a one-stringed cello built out OF a
broom stick and a five-gallon can.

VALUE OF ADVERTISING
Farmer Tells Local Merchants How
They Can Take Trade From
Mail Order fiOuseS.

The Importance Of intelligent and
continuous advertising is clearly set
forth in the following letter from u
Minnesota farmer to his local news
paper. Answering occasional articles
that appear in print about the mail
order houses, he says:
" II the mail order house gets $1,000
out Of this county each month that be-
longs to the home merchants, the fault
is with the home merchants themselves
The mail order houses advertise and
gives us prices on everything they
offer for sale. They tell us what they
have and what they want for it. OF
course we get soaked once in while,
and if we do, we can try some other
house. Most of the home merchants
who advertise at all don't quote prices.
They neglect to tell us what we want
to know-priees. OF course we can go
to the store and ask the price of this
article, and that, but you know how
itis-one doesn't know so we'll what he
wants to buy when he gets in a store
as when he is at home. And here is
where the mail order houses make
their hit. They send us their adver.
tising matter into our homes and we
read it when we haven't anything else
to do and every member of the family
who reads their stuff usually finds
something that he or some other mem
ber of the family wants, and many
orders are made up and sent out a
just such times.
Fright here is where the home mer
chants fall down. If he talked up hi
business in our homes the same as TIT
mail order houses do, the people WoulC
be in to see him the next time he CAM
to town, and in many cases extra trip
would be made to get things at ono
that we wanted until they were
brought to our attention.
"The home merchant can save tn
expense of getting out catalogue
We people read the home paper NOR
carefully than we do catalogue, an
if the merchant wants totalk busines
with us, let him put his talk in tn
home papers, and put it in so that W
know that he means business. Th
home merchant likely, nine times OF
of ten, sells his goods as cheap as tn
, mail order houses, and I believe
many things he is much cheaper, b'
3 how are we to know if he does not te
: us about it?
ga merchant must not think th
g even his best customers know h
goods so we'll that they can tell VIII
e he has without being told.
e "It is none of my business how IL
home merchant runs his business, b
= I don't like to see these roasts in Il
i papers all the time about us fellow
n who get little stuff shipped in on
}. in while, and never anything sa
r on the other side. There are alwa,
g two sides to a question, and 1 ha'
a given you mine. If It's anything
s YOU, you can take it.

No Panic IN Salem.

A fakir selling pins, watch chains
and similar brassware that can be
bought in Connecticut at the factories
for S14s a bushel, disposed OF about
30 cents worth last night on State
street for $50, Salemites digging down
in their jeans for the coin to purchase
oroide with a vigor that nearly burst
the bottoms out of their pants pocket.
They bit like trout at a fly, and got
exactly what the trout did-landed.
From the way the bidders dug up the
coin there is no fear Of financial
panic hitting Salem, for the coin Is
abundant, even for wildcat invest
ments.-Salem Journal.
