The last congress created 27O,0lo
new offices at an annual cost of $751;
296,659. How many Of them do you
think were filled by Republicans ?
Then they passed the Overman bill,
the sole purpose of which was to wipe
out the entire civil service system
and put all appointments under the
control of the president.

tinctly promising.
While in basic industries, according
to the reserve boards report, the res
toration of full business activity is
slow and inadequate, the outlook is to-
day better than st any time since the
conclusion of the armistice. One
thing that has materially assisted the
recovery of a normal tone by business
has been the promising crop outlook.
According to the forecast of agricul-
tural conditions issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture the condition Of
winter wheat is the largest percentage
ever recorded on the largest acreage
ever planted in the United States. This
promise, if realized. should bring about
gross yield of 1897, 900. 900 bushels of
winter wheat.
The fact reported bv many reserve
agents that the business community
has given up the thought that it may
| profitably await further considerable
reduction in prices and is now con-
tenting itself with the development 6f
trade along lines dependent upon at
least the temporary maintenance OF
existing levels. indicates that the ere
adjustment" that had been expected
ever since the conclusion of the ar
mstice cannot. under existing condi-
tons, be as rapid and thorough as had
been hoped and thought. The decline
of prices which has already occurred
has been chiefly confined to relative
" few basic commodities, and while
these enter extensively as materials Of

The Doctor Away From Home When
Most Needed

People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family phys
ician is away from home when they
most need his services Diseases like
pain in the stomachand bowels, collie
and diarrhoea require prompt treat
ment, and have in many instances
proven fatal before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned
The right way is to keep at hand a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie and
Diarrhoea Remedy. No physician
can prescribe better medicine for
these diseases Bv having it in the
house you escape much pain and suf-
fering and all risk Buy it now; il
may save ife.-Advertisement.

Governor Oleott has issued the follow
ing proclamation to supplement the reg
ulations Of the forestry department:
"With the state of Oregon confront
ed by a condition which threatens de
struetion of forests, grass and grfiI
fields because Of hack Of rain, l fee
justified in ordering all state fire war
densto exercise the greatest caution il
issuing permits to burn.
~ further proclaim that no camp
fires shall be started in or near forest
Or brush covered lands within twent,
(2O) feet of any standing or down trees
brush piles, or other litter that may
cause the spread Of fire, and under M
condition is a fire to be built until the
ground is cleared to mineral soil for Z
distance Of six (6) feet in every direc
tion and no such fire shall be left ever
temporarily until it has been completely
extinguished with water.
fInasmuch as the forests ere one OF
the states chief material resources
strongly urge every person going into
the woods during the current dry season
to refrain from smoking, as any fine al
lowed to get beyond control is not only
extremely dangerous to all classes Of
property but neeessitates the use Of la
Dor and supplies that are essential il

POLICE FEAR LOST
NAN DROWNED SELF
]. N Mcpherson, Missing, De.
cIares Intent To End Life
In Note.

Fears were entertained today foI the
life Of ]. n. Mcpherson, who has ~
Gently ben working for Mr.. Fuller, liv-
ing north Of the city. 1t is thought that
in fit of anger, he may have drowned
himself,
It seems that few DAYS ago he had
dispute with Mr.. Fuller about some
farm work Later he came to town and
secured a room at rOoming house on
North Commercial street Then he
wrote the following letter and mailed II
to Mr.. Fuller;
"When the sun goes to sleep tonight
Mcpherson goes to his long rest in the
clear cold water Of the river You will
not get this until I am no more. The
rocks and hills bring a message 20 my
soul. -
Fearing that the man might have
committed suicide, Mr.. Fuller called at
the police station this morning, showing
the letter. When Mcpherson s room was
searched this morning at the rooming
house, somc Of his old clothing was
found and there was no evidence to
show that he had been in the room at
all last evening.
When last seen MePhersoa MAS dress
ed in blue serge suit with soft hat of
dark color. He is six feet tall and
weighs about 100 pounds and is clean
shaven. He has relatives living at How
ell, Michigan.
The police have been keeping watch
along the river and have notified par
ties north to keep a close look out. As
the man has disappeared, 1t is not
known whether in his anger he is at
tempting to harm the Fuller family or
whether he really had suicidal intent.
