THAT CITY PARK
, No mtre do you bear a word
of that city park that was pur
cbaied some years ego . by the
ladies of the city. What has
become of il? Surely the citl
iena of this city thould com
mence to take an interest iu
snob an important matter and
take some action- It will take
years to grow trees and prepare
grounds for the entertainment
and pleat ure of both the citizens
of tbe city and strangers who
visit n, but a start must be
made some time. Now is as
good a time to make that start
as any.
We suggest that this fall the
city fathers take an interest iu
the park matter and the citizens
of tbe city too, for that matter,
and set nut a lot of trees aud
then next year prepare lawns
This will of course require water
but the city cau well afford to
donate that to assist in the up.
building of a pleasure spot.
The bcotion purchased is not
too far out. , Ootid sidewalks
ould soon be laid to it by the
adjoining property owners on
the streett leading to it and tbe
walk would only be a pleasant
stroll. '
Let all take an interest m this
matter and start to make a
place where a tired visitor to
our city may sit down and rest
in tbe shade or where on Sun
day afternoon our citizens may
Bod a resting place on a hot
day.
It would be a good change if
the American voter would full
into the habit of taking more
interest iu what the state, county
or nation is doing or prapojes to
do, than iu who holds the offices.
The people of Oregon are- just
now talking and guessing far
more about who will be appoint
ed U S judge for Oregon, an
ofbee that concerns very few,
ibau about county roads that
effect the I lotne lifd of every
man woman and child in the
stale. .
No prudent man would turn
his property over to be managed
by his employees, and nay no
more attention to it, only to give
friends good positions with fat
salaries which he must pay,
without auy consideration as to
the need or value of the service
rendered or of the way it is per
formed. A citizen who does (hit.

in regard to affairs of county,
stale or nation and pays no at
tention thereto save to express
a prefeience for officers, em
ployees of the public, is derelict
in his duty for he is one of the
owners aud shirks paying at
tention to his nwu business.
OREGON SCHOOLS
In 1002 Oregon bad 112,047
children from five to , eighteen
years of age and that year ex
pended 1 1,802,227 for her public
schools beiog $16 08 per child.
The same year Washington on
our north had. 156,270 children
fmm five to eighteen years ot
ateand her total expenditure
for public schools that year was
$2,805,455 being $17 95 per
child and one dollar and eiguty
seven cents per child more than
Oregon pai J. Idaho on our east
in 1902 had 51,700 children of
from five to eighteen years of
age and that year expended . for
her public schools , bo-
ing $13.33 per child. California
on our south in 19C2 had 351,
600 children from five to eigh
teen years of age and expended
that year $7,613,708 for her
public schools being five dollars
per child more than Oregon ex
pended that year.
It is almost cruelty, to ani
mals the way the President is
delaying the appointment of tbe
federal judgeship in this state,
especially afttr it was supposed
to have been fixed ever so many
days ago.

MEAT CHEAP
But not Cheap Meat
Having purchased the Bock
tt Thomas shops and also tbe
-lull Market, we are in position,
with the threa shops, to furnish
our patrons wito choice meats
at a less price than if we had
only one shop. It is not our
intention to raise the price of
moats, but it is our intention to
reduce the prion, and thereby
hope to increase our trade.
A trial order will convince you
of the assertion.
