A PORT OF OUR OWN.

Everywhere. yesterday, there was
genuine and enthusiastic approval OF
Mr.. wingate's proposition to perfect
the legal status of the Port OF Astoria
and it il conceded to be one OF the best
and most essential things the Chamber
Of Commerce has yet stood for.
The general opinion seems to be that
the work can be devised and carried
through successfully. avoiding all the
blunders and weaknesses that have be-
set the Port Of Portland; that it can
be made a sound base for the prosecu-
ton Of all marine improvement and pro-
gress we are committed to and that it
will place the city and port beyond the
interference Of ambitions that have an
taaonized and embarrassed US in the
past and put US on dead level of op-
portunity with every other maritime
place on tne coast.
That A. NJ. Smith has been placed on
the committee is taken to mean that
his best thought and energy viii be Civ
en- us in the legal and adequate pre-
paration Of the measure that is to b
submitted and that we will have little tt
fear from successful gerrymandering o
the proposition if it has an enemy dis
posed that way; and the lifelong ex
perience and intimate knowledge oi
James w. Welch the third committee
man, will be invaluable in the work Of
his colleagues. Altogether, the idea il
very popular and, with timely coneep'
tion and deliberate preparation, the en-
terprise can, and viii. be wrought out
with gratifying success.

Mrs. Lillie 5leter


 Some lives are simple. yet sub- line, unassuming, yet heroic. Such was the life of Mrs. Lille letter.
 God gave her talent for deal ing with children, and she gave her life to them. She began her life of teaching at the age of fifteen, and continued to do so until her mar. rige, tand two years afterward She was then promoted to higher and nobler work. that of rearing her own children.
 When her husband died fifteen years ago, she was the mother of three small children. With a forti- tude that would have put to shame many strong man. this frail, little woman took up her life's burden. She reared her children, kept her home and resumed her teaching She was an excellent primary teacher, and was beloved by her pupils and parents. She taught in one school for ten years.
 Two years ago, our School board was, fortunate enough to secure her services.
 It was truly a sweet, sad sight to see the little ones who had been her pupils come into where she lay in her last sleep, gaze on her face, and turn away with tearful eyes. Those of us who were fortunate e. nough to be with her during her sic ness, learned to love her and I her family. Her suffering was be- yond expression, but her christian fortitude never faltered. No more [ sight could be seen. han the loving care and tenderness avisned upon her by her daughter'. When in her sick room we felt like our heads as in a.sanctuary J One of her last requests was that ler daughters remain in Mt Plea ant at least long enough to show ler gratitude to our people,,

There is only one drawback to Drew county's general pros perity and that is active, indus
 trious farmers to cultivate it's lands. While the population of the county has increased, consid- erably, within the last few years, there is not so many and as large farms worked now as was several years back. The in- crease of population have been to the towns and to the facto- ries and mills, while farm labor has been gradually decreasing. The negroes, which constituted the principal portion of plan tation labor, have been drifting to other portions of this state, and to Kansas. Oklahoma and Texas, until today there are fewer negroes in the county, perhaps, than there were five or six years ago. 1t is true that many white farmers have come in to take their places, but not in sufficient numbers to fill the demand. If the people of the older states could only realize the value of this country and the golden opportunities offered, all the vacant farm lands would be utilized.
