Oregon's Financial Standing.

There are few if any states in the
Union with better state of finan'
ces than Oregon. She is not only
out of debt now, but has All abund-
ance in the treasury to carry her
through to the first of April when
the new levy will be realized on.
There are no debts hanging over
Oregon, bonded or otherwise.
According to State Treasurer
Steel there is in the treasury cash
balance of $65S, 32o.I5, of which
S,I4, So7 oS is in the general fund,
an amount sufficient to pay the
state expenses until next March.
His report shows that two years
ago the balance in the general fund
applicable to the payment OF cur
rent expenses of the state govern
ment and maintenance of state in
stitutions, was S2I2,5I2.o3; there
was received during the two years
81, so2 1913. 40 and disbursed $4,000
SOFAS, leaving the present cash
balance in that fund
Mr.. Steel makes a number ol
recommendations to the Legislature,
among them these: That the inner
itance tax be made applicable to the
excess of $1,000 on all collateral III
heritances and OH all bequests ano
devises exceeding $500 to persons
not related to the donor; that the
depository law be made applicable
to the school funds; that counties b.
made to pay the maintenance charg'
for the care of the insane, in th'
first instance the counties collecting
from the persons ordered to pa,
the charge; that such special fund
as the pure food fund, the vetefina
ry fund, the board of examiners
fund, etc, be turned into the gen
eral fund and all claims now out o
these funds he paid out of the gen
eral fund, that provision be mad
fop inspection of weights an'
measures so that the law regarding
the same may be enforced.

concerns lying alongside the street
should have been glad to have
borne the entire expense as the
benefits that will accrue to them
would more than compensate them,
but they were apparently afraid
they would do something for some
body else for nothing. Selfishness
hinders the progress and develop
ment of our city a hundred fold
more than poverty.

Although defeated in the presi-
dental battle, William Jennings
BRYAN proved himself full blooded
American by sending the following
to his victorious opponent:"William
II. Taft, Cincinnati, Ohio-Please
accept my congratulations and best
wishes for the success of your ad-
ministration. William Jennings
Bryan" We always did admire a
cheerful loser aud it is refreshing
to note his manly course, and we
like him better for it.

The Wild and Woolly West as
exemplihed by the conduct of the
citizens of Oregon OH election day
was something remarkable. All
the old bullyragging of the ward
heeler was conspicuous by its alb
sence. Every voter went to the
polls, deposited his ballot accord
ing TO the dictates of his conscience
and went on his way rejoicing. No
more orderly election could be asked
for and We are proud of Oregon
and her citizens, who can give
many pointers 10 the eilpte East on
good citizenship aud the manner OF
pulling of an election.

The Tribune reporter went to
Pennock last Monday and he found
that it was all there and everybody
doing a big business at the same
old stands. Pennock is not new
town. It started to smoke up in
the early seventies, and it is still
smoking. It has everything to
make first class town, from a
church, a school system with an
enrolment of over SO. and bank
with a capital of $40, 900. a surplus
of $250O and $4,000 deposits, to
two up-to-date general stores. two
elevators, three blacksmith shops
and a post Office. But best OF all,
it has town spirit. for the Pen
nockites are proud of their little
burg. And the reporter found
most of them to be genial. kind and
obliging, and that is another thing
that speaks we'll for a town.

EMANUEL PETERSON

The grim reaper, Death, visited
at the K. A. Peterson home in town
Of Gennessee on Tuesday, Oct. 6,
and took away their oldest son An
drew, after long illness. He has
been failing in health for several
years. being a sufferer from the
dread disease tuberculosis of the
spine. On April 16, 1906. he un-
derwent an operation and ever since
has been unable to care for himself.
He suffered a great deal during
those long two and one-half years,
but was never heard to complain.
He was always patient, and bore all
in good faith of better home
above. He was not afraid to die,
but patiently awaited the time to
come when he could leave this
world for a better one. Every
thing that medical skill and aid
and efficient care could do was done
for him, but all in vain, so he
passed away Tuesday at 4:15 p. m.
to "sleep the long Sleep"

born in Minneapolis on Sept. 8,
1881. When mere child he came
with his parents to this town and
settled on their farm here, where he
has resided ever since. He leaves
to mourn his death, besides his
parents, three sisters, Anna, Emma
and Esther, and two brothers, El-
mer and Martin, all residing at
home. He also leaves a large num-
Der Of other relatives and friends.
The funeral was held last Friday
afternoon at one O'Clock from the
house and at three o'clock at the
Swedish Lutheran church of At
water. Rev. Norile Of the Nor
wegian Lutheran church oficiated.
The interment took place in the

Sticks Of Explosive Found in Many
Parts Of Eveleth.
Eveleth, Mimi, Feb. 2.-It is begin,
uing to to look as if the Black Hand
is in existence here. The news is
just leaking out that dynamite stick
was found near the Eveleth News
building after an attempt to rob Capt.
Nelson of the Salvation Army. Mr..
Nelson's watch was appropriated, aft
er which the thief disappeared, me-
glecting to take his dynamite along. A
few days ago something similar &C.
Cured, except for the fact that no rob-
berry took place. Eleven sticks of dy.
Mantle were found near the city hall,
which is but half a block from the
main street. The daughter of c. John
son, the tailor, found few sticks in
the front yard early one morning, and
dynamite certainly appears to be
favorite at the present time.
