Gramma's Apalvfr
It seems that my young neigh
bor think I was a leetle to plain
in my remarks in that piece that
I wrote to the paper a week or so
ago. Well really I am sorry if I
hurt anybody's feelins, but you Bee
I did'n know I had such a peart
little neighbor, or I would a gone
over and axed his, or her advice
before I writ it.
Now you sec when folks git old
they are kinder hard of under-
stanuin, but when I went to school
if the preacher had a meant all
our Christmas doins he would a
said, them things, not that thing,
but lawsame how times do change.
Now if I see a cabbage on one side
the road and another on tother
side, I call them both cabbage, hut
you know the bible says the giner
ation will git wiser and weaker.
Well I am real glad that, that part
of the Scripture is being filled up,
and more glad that one of the
latter day generation, lives in this
part of the world. And now honey
stand up and tell Granma your
name, cause anybody thats as
smart as you be, being so young,
had'nt orter be ashamed of their
name.

Whit The Fair Will Uo t ar Virion
I believe the Lewis and Clark
Exposition will bo of the greatest
bene 111 to Oregon. Some of my
reasons for believing this are as
follows:
Oregon has been content for
many years to rely on its resources
.. ' ,
ml thinking it was not necessary
to make any showing to the world.
.Asa consequence the state 'f
ashington has developed its re -
soiuces ami received an meroiiM' in
population greater than Oregon.
1 Ills will lie a 1 acitio Coast exln-1
hition, and without hurting any
other state it will be of th.. m-,-,
benelit to Oreuon itself It will
stimulate the growth and develop
ment of Oregon by making others
believe in us, and what is of more
importance, will make us believe
in ourselves. It will start ilidus-
tries ami the development of Ore-
Ron's resources which h ave hitherto
neon put oil until some nioro con -
venient season. It will make Or
gomans acquainted with ead
other, and will remove local ieul
ousies lor tlie grand onject of a
great state growth. It will increase,
tho state pride of all Oregonians.
The Fair must of necessity he
held at Portland for convenience,
for in Oregon all roads lead to
Portland. This is the best place,
and where strangers would natur
ally expect it to be held, and where
strangers would naturally expect it firm of Cornett & Elkins, doing a
to be held, and where it nui't and general hlacksniithing business in
can only he successful. The ex- Prineville is this day dissolved Im
position will show in a compact 'mutual consent, the business,
form not only what Oregon has ' stock and fixtures having been sold
and is doing, but what she can and : to J. II. Wigle. All accounts due
may accomplish. 'the late firm will he collected by
So far as the people of the East- Frank Elkins and all accounts
em States are concerned, it would owing by said firm will he paid by
oe a great uamage to uregon K the
exposition should not now take
place. A failure now would amount
to a state disaster. Wo must nut
only not let it bo a failure, but!
Oregon must make it a grand sue-1
cess. We have gone too far to turn
