THE DAY WHEN' WE EAT.
Thanksgiving! What a worW
of varied sensations the word car
ries with it. To what lengths do
its oftimes painful recollections
carry us back to the sumptuous
courses the brown baked steam
ing gobbler, prostrate on the plat
ter, his tempting "drummers" fan
ning the air; the immaculate dress
ing, the cranberry sauce that never
inebriate but frequently puckers,
the saffron faoed pumpkin pie,
mother's semi-digestible biscuits,
the impeachable blackberry jam,
the plum pudding that has every
kind of a sausage mixture in it
except plums, the diziy wine oh,
the host of good things. Ram
them in, cram them in. Only this
one day in the year is a license
granted to illegally pack the stom
ach. How we bolt the nuts! how
we stick the candy! how we shock
the corn in our feverish effort to
have them enter this heterogenoeus
race down the esophagus. How
we pant in our eager endeavor to
stimulate a superabundant Sow of
pancreatic juice.
Thanksgiving! What a myriad
of aches and pains it sometimes
discloses. To what lengths is the
, medical fraternity oftimes called
to allay its gouty tendencies. The
dull throb in the side, the feeling
of excessive inflation, the shortaae
of breath, the sleepy, comatose con
dition the day after all these are
but a sequence of the glorious,
riotous living on this festival dav
set aside for us by our corn-eating
ancestors.
Thanksgiving! Away with care
and sorrow! On with the dinners,
the musicales,. operaii, air, the
fancies and furbelows. Tomorrow's
afflictions will speak for them
selves when tomorrow has dawned.
The present is full in itself, let the
"day after take care of itself and
its patients. Glad we are that
Thanksgiving and our appetites
are here, grief stricken are we when
the day and our appetites are gone.
Then does the future look fore-
oouing. men do the Jamaica
ginger quotations find eager eyes
to scan them. But now-
Pass the victuals, hurry, quicker,
Don t o'erlook a single crust,
'Leven months have I been hun
gry
Pile my plate up fit to bust.
The indictment and trial of
Malcolm A. Moody may bo con
strued only in one light, a sinister
political imbroglio which has met
a crushing defeat in the defend
ant's acquittal. It is almost super
fluous to add that the whole trend
of this covert attempt to brand a

in a walk we can at least creep.

That organ over at IVschtitei
seems to have given vent to u
nunilier of jarred notes and dis
cords. Attorney Karnes, it is said
a man so prominently noised in ! helped to pull out the legal ston
- i
public life has left an obnoxious
odor even in the nostrils of the
skeptical aud doubting ones.
The farcical side of the indict
ment wa brought out in strong re
lief when Judte Rellinsrer threw
out three of the counts and com
mented to the effect that "the
actions of the grand jury have
been prejudiced," and were "re
markable." Needless to say, the
diabolical machinations of Mr.
Moody's opposing faction were
laid bare in these few words which
must have stung with shame the
active ones in the prosecution.
But on the whole, Mr. Moody is
in a position to lie doubly congrat
ulated. His trial has exposed the
sickening side of political trickery.
He has stepped out of the court
room with a reputation bulwarked
by an unsuccessful onslaught from
conniving hands. His honesty
and uprightness remain today un
questioned, and he rises to a posi
tion among his fellow men ten
fold stronger in estimation than he
was before his trial. Stronger in
a business light, stronger iicrson-'
ally, and stronger politically with
the satisfaction of knowin; that
one of the most heinous tricks of
political jobbery ever concocted in
the state has had a still birth.
Mr. Moody has been forced be
fore a critical and exacting public
by a strong and unscrunulous
clique. His heretofore unquestioned
character, business and political
reputation and personal standing
were at stake in this issue, and he
has completely established his un
shakable right to their future use
and possession. The reaction of
bis trial has rebounded in incal
culable credit to himself. He had
everything to luse, but lost noth
ing, gained an1 enviable nrestiee
and routed his opponents. Surely
this has been a political problem
in which two and two have made
five.
Cncle ticorgy's date for the
special session will force the legis
lators to leave the rags alone if
they expvt to chew the turkey,
SHALL WE GO AHEAD?
WHY IS THIS?
Except Mr. Hermann, the Ore
gon delegation at Washington has
nothing to say about the acquittal
of Mr. Moody. It becomes them
to lie silent. The Oregonian.
The eyes of the outside world
are centered upon Central Oregon
anu Us luture to far greater extent
than is realized by the average
inland ci.tizen. In every new sec
tion the bone and sinew of the
country are always slothful in real
izmg their own opportunities. No
section can speak more truthfully
regarding this condition than
Crook county.
In Portland and even on Puget
Sound, Central Oregon develop
ment talk is constantly bcine in
dulged in. To the outside observ
er far more than among ourselves,
irrigation and railroad possibilities
seem thoroughly practicable, h
Central Oregon going to wait for
the fulfillment of the old adaee.
"Wait for new blood?" or will the
citizens take a few steps forward?

less the Colombia senators who

Through it all, however, shines
the torch of civiliatii.n, held in

has always marked a new cikk Ii

stance, the new republic of Pana

Editor Journal:
in last week s tiesciiutes hclio
appears an article supposed to
have lieen written bv one George
Schleeht who serves in the dual
capacity of editor and limber buy
er. He seems very much concern
ed for fear the members of the Al
bany Timber ihhiI may pay loo
much commission.
Now that is yeiv kind of George
to look after the interests of the
'dear people." We hasten to as
ure him that he i.eed have no
further anxiety in the matter, as
the "dear people" have already
been offered enough so they could
pay five times that commission
and still get a few hundred dollars
more for their claims than George
and his associates are paying.
This is not idle talk. It is a
fact, and if George will come to Al
bany we will make him know it or
we will pay all his ex-nses and
give him a dollar a day to recom
pense him for loss of time from
his valuable(?) paper.
Practically all of the Albany
people have joined the pool, and
all the people in that locality
would join the pool at once if they
knew the true situation. It is ab
solutely the only way to get an
honest prjco for the timlior. Wf
are already in touch with all the
leading firms in Minnesota, Wis
consin and Michigan. We are stir
prised aiyl gratified at the eager
: ness for tlmlwr displayed by these
eastern buyers, Those stales have
boon practically denuded of their
timber in the past tew yours, iml
the operators are necessarily coin
ing to the cont for their future
supply. -This
pool was not formed for
those who think liWO or $1500 is
a fair price for thoie claims. We
ailvtso all those who agree with
brother Schlocht and his avaricious
associates, that IliHKI. is a fair
pnce.dogosell them. There will;
be no coininissian to nay. Tlmsoi
wno are wining to pay an honest
commission for an honest sale
should join the pon and in a short
lime we will make their flikH) look
like thirty cents.
