WEEKLY FOREIGN FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Though .Money Hardened the Tlr l of the
IVrck , Itutr * llcrnmo .Moro in : y
Townnl Rntiirdny On tlio Con
tinental Ilourncn.
New YOIIK , Aug. 29. The stock market
did not disappoint expectations. Prices
have experienced n good advance , and Indi
cations nro still favorable. As already
maintained in thcso advices , the basis of the
present ndvnnco is the confidence of the big
holders of stocks In the future development
nud resources of the country. Our com
mercial and Industrial Interests are
now rnjoylng n very fair share
of prosperity. Buslnos * is not only
on n larger scale than over before ns demon-
ttratcd by clonrlng house returns and rail
road carnlnes but it Is also In exceptionally
lound condition. This statement being con
firmed by the smnll number , ns well ns the
character , of business failures. Agricul
tural Interests arc also in coed shape ; as , in
gpito of smaller yields of wheat , corn , cotton
nnd other products , wo shall , with last sea
son's surplus , have sufllolcnt nnd to spare.
The railroads are not llKolv to Buffer from
nny insufllclency of frelcht for some tlmo to
como. Judging by the Rtnatl additions to
'
mllcnpo during tho'last few years , nnd the
Increase of trnfilo and population , there Is
moro likely to bo n scarcity of facilities than
of tnnnngo. Another factor to bo considered
Is that munv of our rpnds are yearly growing
less dependent upon n few stnplo crops for
trnfllc. The multiplication or industries , the
growth of passenger trafllc , and even the
development of now crops , ns , for
Instance , the cnrrvlng onat of California
Irults , nil tend to the stability of earning
power nnd consequently to the value of rail
road stock * . Thow facts are particularly
true of lines In the cast and northwest ;
while they npplv In n lesser degree to some
of the southern nnd transcontinental lines.
The Chirnpo exposition promises to bo n
Botirco of grcr.t profit to all the principal
roads entering that city , provided managers
abstain from reckless competition. Stock
holders should mnko themsnlvcs hoard on
thm point before mirvest tlmo is nt hand.
Two events hopp ned during the week
under review which verv materially
itrengthcncd the market , viz. the Texas
railroad decision nnd the collapse of the
Buffalo strike. Judge MrCormlck's decision
Hint the state has not the power to prevent
rnlhoads from earning roa onnblo profits Is
ono of the most important nnd far reaching
decisions of the day. It will undoubtedly
bo confirmed by the supreme court of the
United Stutes. Of its absolute Jus-
tire thcro can bo no question ; be
sides \\hlch it will bo n lasting and
necessary rehuko to the communistic ten
dencies of loRislatlon in several of the west
ern and southwestern Mates. The chief
bcnollcliuies will bo the states themselves ;
for capital , which had loft these sections
severely alone for the la t few vears , will
nirnln flow In the o dlrec.tions with HB reviv
ing tendencies. The effect of this decision
was shown in the ndvnncn of thn Southwest
ern group of stocks , which will of coursp
bo'efit directly bv the decision. Iiis'ead of
doing business at n lo" , wlih prolonged
bankruptcy constantly fronting thorn , there
Is now n prospect of Interest being earned ,
nnd even n fair dividend on such of the
tines us nro not handicapped with over
capitalization. The do teat of the swltrh-
mon's strike materially simplifies ) labor
troubles for railroad manager * , the refusal
of the engineer- * and other railroad orcaniza-
tlons to participate in n sympathetic strike
having considerable slctilfiranno. Thn stri
kers hnvo thus learned an unwilling lesson ,
that while they may have the right to strike
nt will , they must also rccognlzo the equal
riant of employers to fill their places with
otherswithout , molestation.
The future of the murnet certainv ! seems
favorable. In rddltlon to the facts Just men

Ono of tno pluckiest RlrN that h s como to

Eugene , Oro. Mlnnlo hn for two or tnreo
yonra curried the United States mail on
lorsohack from Uusoito wall down Into the
nojntnlns ou the Coiiuovlllo rlvor. It is a
oug rhlu and much of It la ovjr nn oxeood-
ngly rusgcd country. The roads and trails
lint load from the WiltainoUo valley toward
bn I'uelilo ocortn nro very bad. In the
prlng , When the snow malts , the roixJs nro
n places very miry. Moreover , It Is u coun-
ry of "continuous woods. " The tallest of
Ir , plno , cedar and hcmlocli girt tha way ,
and curiod nmplo and mahogany crop up
lore nnd thcro. Undornoatb the trees there
s ajunglo of underbrush and fallen tlinbor
overgrown with ferns that cotnplotu tbo
vlldncss. VVhlto peaks flash here and there
as turns are nuido in the road.
Over this lonely route four or llvo times n
wool : this young lady hai made her way.
( or father has , or had , a mail contract not
nly for this region , but for regions beyond ,
n which ho manipulates a span of cayusos
und a buckbonrd , It Is through the described
vlldorness tbat the daughter rides to meat
her father.
Bears , plentifully distributed , frequently
ross her pathway and linger in it.She tins
lucn little nnd big ones many times , as aha
ms scon deer , cougars and un occasional elk ,
f the stories circulated of her are not over
drawn , and on moro than ono occasion the
iivuga bears nnd cougars unvo planned
across the way to dispute it.
She has paused but for an instant , however.
I'lia poonlo along her route htwo to nave tnolr
otters nnd she Is lluot to deliver tliom. Her
oonv Is of native Oregon stock , llttlo nnd
obedient , and she carries a pistol. There Is
n story that tramos once tried to stop her ,
iut that when the barrel of the weapon
lashed before them they disputed her wayne
no further.
Miss Weston Is doscrlbed as a handsome
brunctto of 20 yours , nnd It Is said that so
nany Oregon younp mnn are asmrlng to her
land that tbo government will probably soon
ese ouo of its bravest and most valued om-
itoycs. Her route to and fro is along the
'
Jlu'slaw river.
The sun Is a great restorer nnd vivlflor ,
but It should not bo allowed to sbino on
either feather pillows or undcrllncn that Is to
bo worn again. These uro best aired in the
shudo. You may sun the shoots from olT the
> cd , but not the night drosses. It will play
lavoc , also , with the dcllcato mauve muslins
that are such favorites this summer , nnd
) ormanontly palu all light blues and rose-
colored cottons. Til ese must bo dried In the
shade. The country laundress will , perhaps ,
lot understand this without repeated and
weekly directions. Bathing suits and white
clothes can have as much of the sun on the
clothesline as possible , but white ilsnncb ,
f you would not have them yolow , must bo
inng nn the bhady sldo of the cordon. In
city yards there is always n tlmo of day
wlicn thcro Is shade bomcwUoro ; in the
jroadcr bleaching grounds of country houses
vou will often have to stretch the lines in tbo
shadow of a house or under a tree to secure
his.
From England como directions about laun
dering In rice water the delictlo colored
muslins tnityou dare not Intrust to ordinary
boap nnd ordinary starch. Starch stiffening
in muslins Is very much out of dale this sum
mer , when dresses must bo clear and driap ,
yet bung in the softest folds , not stiff at all.
lioil 11 hilf : pound of rico in the clothes boiler
with two or three gallons of water. As soon
as the rlco is soft drain dt the water und
wash the soiled muslin In it while It is hot ,
usluc nosoap at all. The rinsing Is done in
tbo soft belled rlco in a separate tub , rubbing
this rlco over the muslins , then rinsing them
lichtly In lukewarm water , they should preserve -
servo enough stillness while remaining quite
clear. If any onuchooios to varv these direc
tions by plunging the soiled muslins Urn In
the softened rlco and than rinsing this out In
plain luKownrm water , cornplotlngtho"cleiir-
ing" process with the strained water in
which the rico was boiled , and without further -
thor rlnsinsr , it seems that this would serve
perfectly. Dry Hour Is so familiar in use
nnd well known as n cleanser of woolens
and even of stained furniture covurs that
this application of rlco starch and gluten to
muslin dresses simply carries out the same
Ideas.
Mrs. ICato Pier and her tbreo daughters ,

suffering both the curse of A-dam 'and Eve )
thoru was no oiroor open to nor save school-
teaching or droismaklng. Now , as n pro
gressive woman says , 'She can do unythlncr
where her petticoats do not natch in the ma-

father , was left in cbargo of the estate. She
became interested In the questions that

There arc many women upon whom -devolve
the roipunslbllilics of nn estate who may ap
preciate the motive which led Mrs. Pier to
become her own lawyer.

In 111 ese days there uro fashions for mi

these that covcrn the design of her best fall

As a woman's political organization tho.
Primrose lenpuo nfinds foremost in the
world. Of its 1,000,0(10 members nearly ono-
half are women , 1,400 women are included In

These women speak little on platforms , but
In canvassing and in the discreet use of per

results. Tno counterpoise of the Primrose
league Is the Woman's Liberal Federation ,
whose methods resemble these of the league.
To avoid any semblance of brlborv. the gifts

"Acts nnd Actions in the , CivJl War , " bv
William Border Wilson , is an exceedingly
valuable contribution to our stock of lltora
turoof tlio rebellion. During ! the war the
author was confidential telograp her to Col
onel Thomus'A. ' Scotland thus'hud o splen
did opportunity of becoming acquainted with
much of tbo iusulo historyof the greatest
military conlliet-of the present century.
While the book Is not a very big ono it con
tains much that ii not to bo found in other
publications on tbo subject and the author
has a pleasing und felicitous style of doscrio-
iug events which cannot fall to rcndsr'lho
little work popular.
Mr. Wilson Is of the opinion that ono of
the causes loading uu to the stupendous
strlfo was a dcsiro on the part of n smal
but inllucntiul coterie in the south to estab
lish a great empire In this country , and that
the revolutionary speeches of the shining
lights among thu southern loaders contrib
uted moro than anything else to hasten the
fratricidal struggle. "Imperialism , " ho
savs , ' 'was the hidden basis of all political
action , nnd unwise utterances nnd unwise
legislation In the north gave to its devotees
the opportunity of presenting to the people
fallacious urgumonls which should tend
toward establishing it ns a form of govern
ment on Uiis continent. "
Mr. Wilson devotes n chapter to the
CocKoyvillo campaign and Filz John Porter
nnd ho also has something to say aoouttbo
railroad und war times. He wus the pioneer
military tologruphor und received the mes
sage from the Held of the first battle of Bull
Hun on nn instrument in the white I'oubo '
with Lincoln at his side anxiously waiting
to hoar the latojt news from the seat of war.
The author has writ ton a vcr.v lucid account
of the United Stutes Military Telegraph
corps whleh will doubtlo s bo road with
great interest , not only by these who took
an active part during the war , but also by
the general public. Mr. Wilson Is tha pub
lisher of Ins book and his lojidcncc is "Wnl-

American people khould uphold u system of
political economy1 lulled primarily to their

Inestimable
Value
The discovery by Dr. Price
\of a new process for extract
ing from the true fruits their
natural flavor will be of
inestimable value and benefit
to the consumers of flavoring
extracts. By this process the
flavoring principle of the fruit
employed is brought out so
perfectly that when used to
flavor cakes , creams , etc. , it
imparts the delicate and
delicious taste of the fruit
itself. Thousands of pounds
of the costly Mexican Vanilla
Bean arc annually consumed
in the manufacture of Dr.
_ Price's Delicious Extract of
Vanilla. Ladies , try Dr.
Price's flavors if * you wish
nice desserts. You will never
be disappointed in their use.
