AT - ON - I A Miner's Liiek. The following poem is mv actual ex perience in the Eastern Oregon gold fields and perhaps will be of some inter est to the readers of the Courier Herald. I am from the Willamette valley And soon my name you'll know. I left Willamette valley for the land of mines you know. With pack upon my back I started for Lake Creek : Its mysteries to explore. There I found sand and rocks. Only this and nothing more. I staked my claim and called it Lucky J nn. Sank a shaft and found my rrospects for a fortune rather slim. With this encouragement on my mind, L decided to try once more. But Providence was against me, Ho I bid farewell to Lake Snore. I started for the mouth of Powdor river Between dark and daylight And landed there . In full delight. I cached my wida and strolled The country round To eee if gold grew on the brush ' Or where it might be found. I dug in gravel, I dug in muck, From day to day I had no lack. And like Che Chares, Brave and bold ; And up the river We hunted gold. Prospected umil we reached head in the Rocky wilds. Where the wolf alone had dared to tread, Prospected op. for manv miles, But found my luck was dead. Of course there are other poets That will lay me in the shade. But if my name you want know, 'Tis N". B. Wade. MounalA View. The measles have not yet disappeared. Little Lionel West has taken them now.

Karl's CldverRuciTu puriuu llie Biovd Tj the Clt'zens of CI ackamas County, In obedience to tne populir will as voiced in the growing discontent of our citizens at ihe repeated dinregard of of ficial trust and mindful that civic virtue underlies all political progress and national greatness, we, in firm reiiar.ee upon the patriotism and public spirited iieBS of our citizens demand better things for the people of Clackamas county. We. therefore believe. That our citizens should nut be bur dened by unnecessary-taxation. That public monies should not be recklessly expended or used to pay pri vate political debts. That tax levies shall not be made that are prohibitory of needed imigration or that retard the national growth and development of the country . We reconize with alarm the showing of the secretary of state as to the exces sive per capita expenditure of Clacka mas county aside from the outlay upon roads as compared with other counties of the slate and realize this condition of affairs is calculated to keep'the (intend ing settlers and the capital neccessary to raise our county t its proper rank as one of the great counties in the common wealth of Oregou. Therefore, sinking partizinship in that larger patrioiisin which appeals to every citizen who loves his country and his flag we believe thai a higher plane of political life will come s the result of our united effirts in behalf of the good name of our country and (he wel sare of all of our citizens alik ; t' the end that government, "of the people, by the people and for the people" shall not per.sh from our midst All citizen of the county regardless of party affiliations are requested to uni'e in this effort for better county government.

SENATOR MxTCUELL FOR IT. Declares tn Favor of Initiative aiu' Referendum. The following letter fiom Senator Mitchell ia self-explanatory : "Washington, Feb. 2ti. Hon. VV. S. U'Ren, Secretary Direct Legislation Leogce, Oregon City, Or. Mv Dear Sir : I beg to acknowledge receipt of yours of February 17. just received, in which you state that the l'ortlan.t ti laru ot lraae has referred to i.s committ -e on legisla tion a request from the llirect Legisla tion League of Oregou for iheir endorse ment and approval of the proposed amendment to the constitution of the state of Oregon, providing for the initia tive and referendum. "I think you know without any expres sion from me that I not only am now but have been for years heartily in favor of this proposed amendment, and I have no hesitation in expressing myself at all proper times and in all proper waas in its favor. I believe a large ponion of the people of Oregon favor the amend ment, so let us tr.lt "I have not the time at present, no do I think it necessary to go into the spec ific reasons why I favor this amend ment. The reasons entertained by those who favor it are known eeuerally to the people of Oregou." John H. Mitchell, Ihe City's Morals. In the published account of the meet ing of the council March 5th, it is staled that "it was boldly charged the mayor and police were not only permitting slot machine gambling, but half the saloons were running wide-open brace games as well ; and it was further hinted that some of the ministers of the city indir ectly winked at this condition." These charges were made by reputable men, whose names carry weight any where, on the floor of the city council. As one of the ministers of the city 1 cannot for one moment rest under such an imputation. During the last eight years I have always opposed to the ex tent of my ability every candidate for the mayorality, who has been known to favor permitting gamming. 1 wornea against Mayor Dimick.the first time be cause I had good reason to suspect that he favored gambling,' and the. second time because l knew he openly lgiorea the laws which he swore he would en force. More than that, in compny with Rev. R. A. Atkins, I went as a committee from the Ministerial Aaso' ciation over a year ago to urge upon him that he suppress the money machine were then, as tney appear to have been most of the time since, running wide open. He faithfully promised us to do so. We have yet to see a sincere per formance of his pledge then given to us I have cleared my skirts of the impn tatlon which was cast on me, at a minis ter of this city. It is now up to His Honor to" give.not a spectacularly inaen nite denial, but convincing proofs that the very serious charges which were made against him on the floor of the council are unfounded. When our sons who are minors are in dauger of being made so drunk that a doctor's care is needed to resuscitate them it is high time for every parent, for every moral man and woman, to de- maud taat the laws be eufoiced by the mayor, who is the responsible head of the city government. i AnOHKW J, MONTCiOMKKY.
