(Tr) AlVN('t Tbrac uioiitln... ...... . w UtOl FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, , Milliliter Wu'b sou is an Ameri can school loy, a compliment to Uncle Sam that is acceptable and substantial. A couunitte will have to be ap pointed to discipline the professors who are seixin'g their playthings and quitting the hack yard of the Iceland Stanford University. It is altogether probable that the - army canteen will reappear on one of tho side streets. Count Roni de Castellane is the most expensive piece of briiva-brac the Goulds have ever accumulated. "Many Klondike miners who came south last fall to spend the winter," says an Oregon paper, "have become resitive under the re straints of civilation and are now on their return north." There is no place like home, even if it is a bunk in a glacier with only a six hours' allowance of daylight. The Arlington Independent urgvs the discontinuance of the practice some papers have of carrying "dead" advertisements. That's right, Bro Hicks; but why stop there? Why do you give up fire columns of your space every week to the patent coucern and only get al lowed a dollar and a half? Why not cut down the diseased tree in stead of lopping off a limb? ft Can it be that the name of Super intendent Mills, of West Point, has anything to do with tho prize fight in there? ft ft ft Kentucky - resents the assertion of a college professor that no one ever dies from snake bite, as being an underhanded attempt to dis credit her well known snake bite remedy output.

From the speeches of acceptance by Messrs Clark and Quay, ft ft ft An Englishman aged 77 has died of whooping cough. He must have been in his second childhood. It's worth remembering that the armyiill does not abolish the can teen at all it merely, prohibits the sale of liquor therein. As a club room and bar for the sale of non intoxicants, the canteen still has a flourishing life before it. ft ft A contract between the owner of a farm and an occupant, by which each furnishes part of the seed, im plements and stock and providing for division of the products or of the proceeds thereof, is held in Shrum v.

At present the state printer is a fixture by reason of the constitu tion and can snap his fingers at the legislature. It is doubtful if the amendment will carry as the Ore gon people do not like to monkey with the constitution. In the mean time the state printer will get richer and richer. ft ft The two senators from several western Btates are said to be about to join issues over the distribution of patronage. Why don't they adopt the New York and Pennsylvania fashion and let one senator own the other and be done with it. ft ft ft It is a little hard to see just what can be done to Mrs. Naton. In Kansas, saloons are as much against the law as burglary is and apparently their owners can be treated as much as burglars can by private citizens. ft ft ft Very little headway seems to have been made by the British in South Africa in the past few weeks. The Boer invasion of Cape Colony is evidently just as portentous as it ueemed to be in the earlier days of the past month. All the traps which have been laid for the Boers have been skillfully evaded thus far. The British re-enforcements which have been rushed into the 'menaced region have been powerless to either eject the invaders or to capture them. This circumstance takes away something of the warmth of the reception given in England to the returning soldiers fud their chiefs. Anti-Saloon Senator Clem, of Linn county, has introduced a bill, whk'li, if en acted into a law, will strike at the vitals of the liquor trailie. His bill provides: "Any person who shall in any saloon, or place where liquors are sold, give or. treat another to any drink or other quantity of spirit uous, malt or vinous liquors with intent that the same shall be drunk or consumed by tho person so treat ed, shall bo guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a tine of not lens than HO nor more than MO or by imprisonment in the county jail of the county where such offense is committed, not less than five nor more than 25 days." Senator Clem has another bill intended to discourage tho drinking of liquors. It requires venders of malt, spirituous or liquors or keep ers of any pool or billiard room or saloon to keep the windows and doors of their respective places of business unobstructed by screens, blinds, paint or other articles, and to prohibit lounging inside of said places. The Boers are probably on their last legs but they're uncommonly lively legs. Will KM ward VII continue to set the styles or will he now abandon this arduous duty to someone else? ft ft, ft Mr. PettigrewV successor has been elected by a vote of 13 to 113.

We must seriously object to th bill that recently pawl the senate to pension the father of the late Senator Davis simply Ijccauao he was the father of his son. No doubt, Senator Davis was a great man, but if this sort of thing is once started no one can tell where it will end. 9 ft The most beautiful thing in the world is the baby, all dimples and joy.
