Colonel W. Q. D. Mercer of Eugene
has penned a prose-poem on the Ore
gon apple and has forwarded a copy
to hia old friend, Senator Turner Oli
ver, with compliments. Colonel Mer
cer, by the way la a lecturer of con
siderable ability and especially Is he
ibl i to handle subjects relating to
Abraham Lincoln his warm and per
sonal friend.
When Col. Mercer had completed
his poem on the Oregon apple,' cap
Honed ""When God made the Oregon
apple," hj asked for crltkism fron!
Mr. Oliver. The local senator, how
ever, has been unable to find fault
and bv snwlal nr4tn!' qjj;
server ! publishes It -an , apostrophe
that la worth reading:
"So God created man in hls own
mage..; in the image of God created
he him, male and female created 'he
hem." : .. : . '
"And God said, B:-hold, I have giv.
n you every herb bearing seed, which
Is upon the face of the earth, .and
every tree, In the which is the fruit
of a tree yieldlg seed; to you it shall
be for meat." V ; ' '
'And God saw every thing that he
iad (thus far) made, 'and, behold, it
was very good." ' '
And then He bethought himself of
the Oregon apple, and straightway
He dispatched his whits-wlnged an
gcllc messengers throughout all the
3tar-strewn realms of space with ln-
iif ruct!ong to gather all there was that
s pleasing to the taste of Bmell.
Wh:n the angelic reapers returned
from their harvesting and threw down
it His feet their burden of delicious
fragrancles, He, began In their won
dering presence the . moulding and
fashioning of the Oregon apple. With
Cupid's arrow He deftly Imbedded th
bonnle seeds which were destined lat
er to disclose the lqve-secrets of man
ly swains and lovsly maidens. x He
then took of the nectar which Jupitar
sips; He took of the dainty drop cf lim
pid wine. from th?, moon light -co! ored
cup of the wind-Illy; He took of'the
pearly honey-dew from th; rubied
heart of the musk foBe; He look of
the glittering , dew-drops which fall
from the rosy fingers of. the goddess
of morning; He took of th: puro
sweet Bnow which gleams from the
petals of the lily of the valley; He
took of the sanctified sweetness of th1.
kiss of love in its first deet hour of
truth; He took of the sweet beguiling
melody of a mother's lullaby, and H.
took of the calm loveliness of the clos
ing flowers when day Is dying and
the evening star so holy shines.
And God Bald, L;t us now array
this appetizing mixture In gorgeous
robes of russet and scarlet and wel
low, and bright with the shen of the
dew.
So God took of the resplendent
beauty of the world't opening glow;
He took of the glittering garlands
which the angels weave in Silver Star-
land; He took of the trlpple rainbow
on the mountain tops when the storm
dispelling sun is enthroned in golden
evening; He took of the radiant joy
tints upon the apple-blossom cheeks
of coy maidens when love within a
dimple lies. Over these wondrous
tints and colorings He threw a pro
tecting mantle of dewy purple which.
In autumn-time, rises like a cloud of
sweet imnee from earth's full urn.
And then from out his t-:nt of clouds
the conquering autumnal sun came
proudly forth, and like some grand
enchanter, shed the splendor of his
smile on the ripened gift, and all
heaven and earth rejoiced, for lo. God
had made the Oregon apple!
