The general acceptance of the an cient adage tnat "misery loves com pany ' appears at first glance to be a tacit acknowledgment of the lu nate meanness of human nature rather than the nobleness of Its lcals. Is It not rather, the desire )r sympathy that is never so well xpressed as when a fellow creature as experienced the same grief that prdens your heart that makes misery love company," rather than a deslro thnt another should suffer simply because we do. These thoughts wore prompted by the knowledge that the city of Portland Is at present troubled with difficul ties thnt have arisen in its city coun cil similar to the troubles in Marsh field. It goes to prove that Marsh field Is not alone in these troubles. Thoy are as universal as humanity. They are co-existent with human nature. A knowledge of this fact should help us to bring n broad charity to the solution of these troubles. The councllmon and the mayor of Marshfield are no better and no worso than mayor's and councllmeu of thousands of Ameri can municipalities. It is the muni cipality where the counciimen and mayor by exercising uncommon common sense harmonize their dif ferences and work together for the general-good of the entire city that the greatest good is accomplished. This should be the aim and effort of the mayor and city council of Marsh fiold. In discussing the Portland difficul ties the Telegram has the following Iditorlal which Tlio Timc3 com nonds to Marshfield olflc'als for ending and consideration. It is not icrsonal because it was written for mother city but it expresses tlio at titude of the public toward such con ditions when they ariso: "To tho city council and the mayor the wordy and acrimonious alterca tions conducted by the two may ap pear lo contribute somewhat to the Btiycty of nations, but it strikes the averago man of this city with some thing akin to disgust. It Is not busi ness In itsolf, nor does it accomplish anything that has tho somblance of business. Hoth pait'"s might under stand, if their pore, 'itlons were not dulled by petty nnger .that tho peo ple of Portland are heartily tired of tho stale and silly exhibition. "In the chief matter at Issue, that of public lighting, there is no more excuse for this official tomfoolery than In tho discussion of any other subject which affects tlio Interests of the city. The taxpayer is inclined to regard this subject with calm and unruffled temper, and Inasmuch as ho foots the bills, whatever the out come, the mayor and tho council might manage to consider it as ra tional men, and without tho vulgar clamor which baa characterized their discussions. If there Is a way to get cheaper lighting tho people of Portland want to bo shown that way. If the city can own and operate its lighting plant to advantage, well and good. Nothing remains but to Investigate and discover tho data which lias a practical business-llko bearing on that proposition. This is not to bo accomplished by an exhibition of personal animosity between the ex ecutive and legislative branches of tho oily government. Such a meth od of transacting so Important an affair is not what the people of Port land expect; nor Is it what they will bo disposed to tolerate for any con siderable length of time. What Is desired Is that sober, serious con sideration belli tint; a body of respectable- business men. and not the scold ing and vituperation that would do credit to a convention of llsh-wlves. If the council Is In favor of an In vestigation of i ho public-lighting quoBtlon that will determine at the onrliest possible date whothor we might not adopt some other more economical sstem, or whether, under present conditions, wo nro paying too much for tho service we get, why not hae imido that fact plain from tho very outsot? This would have been decidedly more to tho purpose than nbuslug tho mayor. On tho othor hand, If tho mayor has any definite and prnctical plan which ho thinks will Insure grentor eco nomy in public lighting, without en- ' o WITH THE t TOAST AND TEA GOOD EVENING. That man may last but never lives Who much receives, but no thing gives; Whom none can love, whom none can thank Creation's blot, creation's blank. GIBBON. LITTLE ailt. LITTLE. Little Mr. Little is a timid little man, Whose little life is ordered on a very modest plan, Ho owns a little cottage, he runs a little shop, He hasn't any hankering to clamber to tho top, Ho makes a little profit on the goods ho has to sell, And when he seeks his little bed he sleeps exceedingly well. Little air. Little is a man you'd never note, His hat is five and something, and he wears a rusty coat, The trolley rush upsets him, he never gets a sea", And half the leading men in town have trodden on his feet; But little children love him, though his clothes are out of style, And dogs run out to meet him, and vag their tails and smile. Of learning he has nothing, of talent not a spark, He doesn't own one quality com manding of remark, With mind too small for envy or pride or guile or greed, This little Mr. Little 13 a funny sort, indeed; And yet the host of friends he has! in every block are scores, For little air. Little's heart i3 big as all outdoors. You never have to dun a Coos Bay man who owes you a grudge. Some of tho charity that begins at homo makes a quick get away. Thcro are some people on Coos Bay who look easy unitl you try to do them. 6 It Is easier for some Coos Bay wo men to hold a stroLg mm than to hold their tongue.

This would be bettor than mere abstract letter writ ing or than accusing tho Council of curruptlou. "Whnt the public demands on the one hand Is fair and lojul service from the council, and on the other hand an abstinence from playing politics on tho part of the mayor. It nia he considered as useless pre sumption to call the attention of either party to tlio futility of tho couibe now pursued, to tho unsatis factory character of it so far as tlio people are concerned. Nevertheless, both parties wore olected for public service and not for public entertain ment, though tho Inttcr possesses the novelty nnd tho yowling character istics of a convocation of ICIIkenuy cats." memw TRY GUITTARD'S Pure Coffee IN ONE OR THREE FOUND AIR TIGHT TINS It is the best Coffee from several Countries, blended and matured in the Green State then roasted just right.
