MAKING FRIENDS rs
IMPORTANT TO A COMMUNITY

From the first appearance of man
upon the earth down to very recent
times the words stranger" and Cen
envy" were quite or almost synony-
nous. Long after civilized nations
had defined robbery and murder as
high crimes and had affixed severe
punishments to them when practiced
among and upon their own people re-
spectively it was deemed no offense,
but even meritorious, to rob and mur-
der and enslave strangers, whether as
nations or individuals. Even yet this
has not totally disappeared.
The man of the highest moral cult
walton, in spite of all which abstract
principle can do, like him whom he
does not know much better than him
whom he does not know. To correct
evils which spring from want of sym.
pathy and from positive enmity among
strangers, as nations or as individuals,
is one of the highest functions of
civilization. To this end our agricult.
ural fairs contributes in no small de.
gree, They render more pleasant and
more strong and more durable the
bond of social and political union
among us,
Ere long the most valuable of all
arts will be the art of deriving com
Portable subsistence from the smallest
area of soil. No community whose
every member possesses this art can
ever be the victim of oppression in any
Of its forms. Such community will be
alike Independent Of crowned kings,
money kings and land kings.
Let us hope that by the best cultiva-
tion Of the physical world beneath and
around MS, and the intellectual and
moral world within us, we shall secure
an individual social and political pros
perity and happiness whose course shall
be onward and upward, and which,
while the world endures, shall not pass
away.-Abraham Lincoln,

CROP OUTLOOK IN
VALLEY IS EXCELLENT

Reports from points in Marion, Polk
and other counties tell Of good crop
prospects, and the rainfall Of the past
week has done great good to crops gen
orally, with the exception of cherries
and strawberries. That there will be n
big yield of fruit is the general opinion.
Loganberries are doing well, and pruncf
and hops are big crop.
c. o. Constable, county fruit inspect.
or, stated yesterday that the recent
rains did not damage the cherries as
much as anticipated, and that the foot.
hill punes and hops are looking fine.

waking hours in hard manual labor,
that keeps so deep down in the rut of
habit and custom that the sun of prog
ress never shines full upon it can not
be healthy or happy. That community
is not living a normal, natural life
and its part in the work of raising
humanity to higher plane of living and
to a broader view of life is indeed so
lamentably small as to be insignifi-
cant.
Many a community, that in popula-
tion was insignificant and in location
was seriously handicapped, has made
a bigger place for itself in the world s
history than some other communities
with thousand more natural advan-
tages.

concrete piers have been set and the
work of placing the rest of the struc-
ture in position is being carried along
as rapidly as possible.
The rain has delayed work on the
Marion street improvement this week,
but crew of men are now busily en-
gagged in preparing the first section for
paving. The ground has been worked
over on the first section between Front
and Commercial streets, and the ma
terial and machinery is on the grounds
ready to be used just as soon as the
weather clears.
Railway Company Improves.
The Portland, Eugene & Eastern com.
pany is doing considerable improving
on its North Salem line at present.
The old rails are being replaced with
new, heavier ones, and the old rotten
ties are being discarded. The over.
head system is being changed, and it
is the intention of the company to
have perfect road to the Fair grounds
before State Fair week arrives.
Some of much needed improvements
are being made by the company on its
terminus at the Fair grounds. The
switches and turn-outs which abutt the
S. P. track are being extended and
placed in a more slightly condition, and
preparations are being made to give

Initiative Counts.

Ideas, thoughts, are what move the
world along, and these are generated
and developed by the healthy mind
under healthful conditions promoted
by the proper combination of physi.
cal labor and mental recreation; in
general by the conditions that exist
most ideally in the rural community.
The human machine is a complicated
organism and the community is not
less so. Disregard of the laws of
health and growth is as fatal to the
one as to the other. Though the pen
atty is not brought home to the com
munity so directly as to the individual
man, yet it is not the less sure.
As what is injurious to man as
unit is in general injurious to mankind
as a society each individual man IS
knowledge and experience regarding
the laws of bodily health may well
serve to guide him in determining his
attitude on all questions affecting the
welfare of the community as a whole.
So the community should be well or.
ganized in order that all its citizens
shall be able through cooperation to
propose encourage and support move.
ments and practices that are good and
discourage and discountenance those
that they know to be detrimental.

FIRST ROCK PILE
FIRE IN C. +. DISTRICT
PILE AT BRISTOL MINE COMMENCED
TO SMOKE LAST WEEK
GOOD PROGRESS AT CARPENTER
Shaft is On Ledge Now and But Little
Trouble Is Expected From Water
May Send Out Some Ore

The first rookpile fire in the Crysta
Falls district started up last week at
the Bristol. These rock pile fires come
from the oxidizing of the sulphur that
is contained in the rock and where
big pile Of rock. containing lot OF sui
phur. is stored mp q Are generally
results The first ira In the county
occurred at the old Sheridan mine pile
to be followed soon afterwards by the
Dober pile and now there are several
rock piles smoking away on the west
side. some OF them having been at IL
nearly ten years.
The fire at the Bristol Is OF more
serious nature than any Of the other
fires in the county for the reason that
the rock has been deposited in the open
pit and III 10 should continue down 10
a depth where down draft should
catch the fumes and draw them into
the mine ii wonld shut the property
down. for the workn,en couldn't live in
such an atmosphere.
The matter is being carefully watch
cd by Supt. Bjork and every precantiou
known is being taken to prevent the
fumes being drawn into the mine.
TIE CARPENTER.
Supt. Rowe informs us that the big
shaft at the Carpenter is on the
ledge. He expects that they will get
1t sealed safely and aetnrely before the
month is out.
The sinking OF the shaft at this pro-
perty has been done under much more
favorable circumstances than was
thought possible before the work was
started The good fortune came in the
shape OF very small amount Of water
to pump or to interfere with the sink
ing operations
II was generally supposed that the
Carpenter shaft would be pretty
tough proposition owing TO the exper-
fence which explorers had in endeavor-
ing to sink test pits on the property
years ago. Preparations were made
with view to taking care OF big
flow but as the shaft lowered the vol
ume failed to increase 20 that the fears
of the operators were without founda-
tion. condition that they are mighty
glad Of
The rapid progress made with tho
shaft indicates that the Hanna people
will be able to ship sample cargo OF
ore from the Carpenter late the coming
season. OF course, operations are not
80 far progressed that anything Of this
line can DO said with certainty but
supt. Rowe hopes that the good luch
will continue and that he may be able
TO get out some ore II its only few
carloads.

Base Ball or no Base Ball?

Which shall II be- That question is
being asked quite frequently OF late
and there seems TO be- no real decisive
anewer one way or the other. Most
people VINO favor the game think tpat
IL anything 10 TO be done il should be
done at once while others think that
we ought TO pay up the small deficit
on the last team before attempting
more. There remains some where

balance ought to he paid either by
popular subscription or some other
manner.
A great deal depends upon the en-
thnsiasm displayed at Iron Mountain
and Iron River. II is certain that Iron
River will be on hand If Crystal Falls
is but Iron Mountain is question.
Norway ism { discussed much and there
is some talk of switching either to
Niagara or Stambaugh. Iron River
and Crystal Falls were the only teams
that played last year. The receipts
at Iron Mountain were woefully small
during the latter end OF the season
while at Norway they barely paid
travelling expenses.
The old timers OF the Crystal Falls
team had decided not to play another
year bpt the sight of those new
grounds has kind Of limbered up the
old boys imagination and they are
itching for the game again
There was some talk in the Marquet-
to range papers of a circuit to include

contenting himself with paying the
minimum royalty which amouuts to
