LOSS FOR BOTH ALLEGED.
THEREFORE 1T is PROBABLE
THAT MITIGATION OF TWO
METHODIST HOUSES WILL BE
CONSIDERED FAVORABLY.

Baltimore, May 14.-At the Metho-
dist Episcopal general conference here
the sitting was occupied chiefly with
| the hearing of reports of Bishops in
the foreign fields.
Bishop Earl CranstOn, resident biSh-
op of Washington, read his report on
| the union of the various Methodist
churches in Japan. Bishop l. B. Scott,
the only colored bishop, made his re-
port OF the work of the church in
| Africa, especially in Liberia. A COM
mission was appointed to consider
means of increasing the salaries of the
| pastors.
A furry about the book concerns,
which promises to develop as the ses-
siOns grow, and the question Of uni
| ficatiOn of the New York and Western
publishing houses comes up for set
| tlement, was caused by the introduce
ton of motion by B. l.. Paine, Of Ne
! braska, calling for a detailed account
of the finances and business of the
two houses. In the preamble the resO-
luton stated that the book depOsitor-
| les had been run at a loss for some
years past: that it was believed the
! book depository plan has long since
passed it's period of usefulness and
necessity"
He also stated that it was probable
the body would be asked to start an
other depository
| These statements aroused DR..
George P. Mains. Of the New York
| book concern. who stated that the
book concerns had not been run at a
loss. On a point Of order Bishop
Spellmyer, who presided, cut the de
bate short, and put the question of re-
ferring it to the committee on book
concerns to a vote. which carried.
Rev John Handley, of New Jersey
made an Intellectual attempt to have
passed by the conference a resolution
siding elders by annual conferences
This matter is now before the commit
tee on itineranCy which will, it is ex
pected, recommend that the bishops
continue to appoint the presiding cid
ers. but that hereafter they shall make
their selections from lists of three
nominees for each presiding eldershir

NO FARM PRODUCE
EXHIBIT THIS YEAR
Only One Such Event Has
Been Held.

No exhibit Of farm produce will be
made by the pupils of the district
schools this year. One such exhibit
was held few years ago and it prov
ed very satisfactory. Prizes were Of
fered and the school children took
deep interest. 1t was suggested at the
time that the affairs be made annual
and a number of the township trustees
believed the plan to be advisable. 1t
seems to have been lost sight of, how
ever, and to have become merely a
matter of history.

young married man who. to satisfy
wish OF both his wife and her moth
er, tells them he has joined the Odd
Fellows; upon the scene then comes
the father-in-law. who, 1t seems, had
told the same take TO his wife some 20
years before, thus giving him a never
failing excuse for his proverbial
night off,; the two men met, both
firmly believing the other full
hedged member, and the complica-
tons resulting can better be imagined
than described, particularly the place
where they try OUT each other to
see how many OF the secret signs and
motions the other knows. On top Of
this, young gentlemen friend OF the
family is persuaded 10 masquerade
as a certain French girl, the supposed
long-lost daughter OF the aforesaid
father-in-law. All through the COM
edy scenes were perfectly handled by
a company that seems to be equally

WHOA, EMMA!"

Emma Goldman, the rabid anar-
chist who has practically unsexed
herself by long career Of turbulence
and unwomanly notoriety, and for
whom the public spirit of Chicago
has become altogether too aggressive
ly hot, is on her way to Oregon with
the alleged purpose of waking up
this people to realizing sense OF
the intolerableness Of things general
ly and counselling them on the best,
shortcut methods of amending the
deplorable situation.
With reverberating clamor and a
spontaneity born OF the startling news
of her coming, our half million Ore
gonians under threat, desperate and
dreading, cry in concert whoa,
Emma" There can be no want nor
welcome in this State for this gross
apostle of a grosser creed; no end
for her to serve here, save that of
stirring up dormant devils of discord
and disruption and intoxicating her
vicious doctrine in the plastic minds
of few idle imbeciles or adding col
or and action to minds already in
fected with her noxious theories. She
will find sparse collection of con-
genial spirits in this old Webfoot
State and we advise her to switch
north from Huntington, and look for
a more receptive field in the mining
district dominated by some of her
choice compatriots and colleagues.
i We all know things might be bet
ter and smoother and happier, and
we are prone to amend them as rapid
ly as good sense and decent programs
can do it; but we want no anarchistic
drilling in the premise. Astoria
swarms with intelligent workingmen
in various callings, and bgosh, they're
all at work and doing fairly we'll. We
know of no center in all this wide
western territory where her voice OF
person or cult will fit with any COM
fort to her or to us. We haven't
missed her all these years and dom
want her now. She is surplusage
wherever she is; and we are after
surplus of another sort and gathering
it in as we are able.
1t is hoped the Oregon police will
do their full duty in the matter O
Miss Goldman's visit out here ant
make it interesting for her along
their peculiar lines, since such atten
tons are among the most genera
and characteristic she receives-anc
deserves.

CHEAP MILLIONAIRES.

The dispatches tell of multi
millionaire in Berlin, who having
failed and fed, was found to be
worth the real and pitiiul sum OF
$3.50, though he was variously quot
ed in the financial marts OF Europe as
worth from II to 70 millions. This is
a standard that will apply pretty gen
eraly, if the truth were known. There
are thousands OF cheap" millionaires,
whose credit is based upon the tlimsy,
yet far-reaching credulity OF the
people around them; whose tangible
wealth is myth. but whose exquisite
skill in keeping up appearances and
putting on dog" keeps alive the
humbug of their lordly wealth. Pure
and unadulterated bluff is an asset,
these days, that the shrewd and un-
particular American Is using for all il
is worth; and the equally unparticular
sucker" OF any old extraction, is
bamboozled to a finish by the process
of pretense.
Many OF the fortunes of the day
are reckoned in figures, not sheer
dollars. Stocks and bonds, and Sc
curities," and current paper OF other
men, constitute half the fortunes OF
the land; and every bit of it is sub
ject to the annihilative forces OF
chance and the peccability of the
people behind it. The only rich men
in America are the men who own
the choice, productive, and cumula-
tive real estate OF the country; the
Astors, for instance, the richest fam
lily in the nation, whose sum OF wealth
is never doubted, nor susceptible OF
doubt; this is the one unfailing, sound
and tangible expression of real wealth
and the premier investment of the
hour.

ST. pATRIcK's DAY.

Wherever, on this mundane sphere,
a son OF Erin dwells and has his own
jolly way, this day will be made more
or less conspicuous in the course OF
his recognition of it. St Patrick's
day has long ceased to be peculiarly
a mere date in the calendar of the
Church of Rome; and of all the saints
and heroic figures incorporated in
that fist, this notable and lovable
patron looms largest and nearest the
world in general and to the Irishman
in particular.
St. Patrick has, in measure, been
appropriated by the outsider; he is
recognized everywhere and honored
in the abstract, if not in form and
with devotion as in his religious re-
lation. This is due, perhaps, more to
the fact that he was not altogether a
churchman, but statesman, civic
organizer, and man of broad inter-
est and courage in the redemption OF
people to the civic, as well as the re-
ligious, virtues of his day; his
methods were those of a militant
character that lend his history the
force of manliness that appeals to
those far beyond his claim on the
votaries within his church.
He was, in this sense, fine ex-
ample of the Irish nature and habit
of standing "pat" for what he owned
and believed and loved; AID the mix.

: ed for genuine respect wheresoevel

The Schwarzschild and Sulzberger
Packing Company is asking permis-
sion of the city of Portland to cover
fourteen acres in the suberbs with a
plant which will represent an outlay
OF $l,50O,000. Coming Immediately
after the definite announcement OF
the 100000 established which Swift

over the recognition accorded this
section of tie United States as pack

Secretary F. A. Welch OF the Ore
gon State Board of Agriculture, is
asking the cooperation OF the vari-
our County Courts of the state in ar
ranging for exhibits at the State Fair

displays, which become Of more vital
importance each year in view OF the

Fruit, dairying and other industries
of Oregon have all been given their
share Of publicity, but poultry raising
is rarely mentioned outside Of the
publications which are either devoted
to poultry or have specal depart
ment for it. $5,000,000 annually is a
very conservative estimate Of the re-
turns from this industry to Oregon
farmers, and yet thousands Of cases
of eggs ere shipped in every year
