The main thing Is for a man to be honest to hi Uod, live a proper life and he will not be oontamualed by contact with the wicked world. In fe fact this world isn't so very wicked after all.

L t . i l me u. o. nave got w au expression oi satisfaction from Btate department officials as to uroifresa made In the negotiations with China. It is strictly a a lawyer that Camp bell is running a democratic caudi date for governor of Ohio, and la not doing it on a contingent fee, either. Briee had to put a stiff cash retainer. The Kentucky democrats finding themselves unable to answer repub lican arguments on the stump, adopted the old but cowardly policy of howling down republican speakers. Maybe it I alright, but somehow the opening of the German celebration of the battle of Hedan by the dedication r Momnrint nV.nr,.h at lu-rlin mipiI a little IncongruouH The attempt of certain democratic newspapers to He the present tarifl Into popularity was very promptly shown up by wide-awake republican editors. Perhaps it was the bursting of Mr. ClevelaDds third term bubble that people in the vicinity of Buzzard's Bay thought was a little earthquake. The French may be depraved and giddy, but they draw the line on bull fighting, all the same, and will not allow It. Kentucky democrats regard the attempt to restrict the product of Bourbon whiskey as an invasion of their political rights. Did Secretary Morton invite Coxey to attend the"good roads parllmcnt,"to be held at Atlanta? The season has beeen very unfavor able to the growth of Mr. Cleveland's third-term expectations. mw aaaMasi When a President gets a third term the life-term with autocratic authority will be in sight. Comity Exchange. Observer. Dallas Is said to be a dull town Why so? The greatest drawback to Dallas today Is the mugwump news paper published and read throughout this vicinity by a few people. Its col- limns are full of advertisements tell- Ingthe people to go to Halcm and other towns to purchase their goods, This work is all done at a cheap rate paid by the Balem business man. This mugwump sheet asks the people of Polk county to forsake their own towns and patronize other towns, No wonder business is diverted into other channels. If a newspaper lives by the grace of a community It ought to stand by the community. This so- called newspaper is a wart on the people of Polk county, and its every issue heralds it.

It makes no difference about the weuther, as everything Is unde dielter and extensive preparations are Mng mude by the people of Portland to make this year's exposition a success Citizens of Portland have rimdo up purse of $10,000 to guarantee every obll cut inn assumed, One important ft ure will be the extensive display o; products of the soil which is being supervised by B. H. Pague the local forecast man of Portland. 1 his week 1'eravnl Nu.hIi, a son of Wallis Nash, of Corvaliis, arrived in Independence to ask tlmt this section of the state may make an exhibit Since there is no organisation to take up matters of this kind he found great deal of work necessary In going to individuals and soliciting an exhibit and thou perhaps there would tie no exhibit so he called on Mr. Wolcott president of the Hop Growers Associa tion, and that gentleman suid he would call the executive committee of the Hop Growers together on next Saturday and then some plun will be levised for muking an exhibit. One jilun suggested is that a large frame be made and photograph of Imp yards surrounded by the pressed hops be set under glass and the name and post ollico address be given. This would attract the general visitor moie than would bales of hops. C. II. Hunt Is the superintendent of the Exposition. All fruits, vegetables, or small samples may be sent by express and charges will lm paid in Portland, but heavy packages must be sent by freight at special rates. The name of sender should accompuny every shlpmeut. If you wish samples or specimens or your exhibit preserved the railroad company will return it one-half freight charges We hope our people win tuke an interest in this matter and unite and have an exhibit worthy of our lesour-cei.
