Champoeg with him, on May 2,
1843, and it is history, that he went
to tbeir cabins three times before
he finally prevailed upon them to
go. When the deliberations were
over Col. Meek made a five minute
speech for American sovereignty
nd Meek was a ni tgnidoent orator
and when the vote was counted
there were 52 (or American govern
tnenl and 50 for British government
In recognition of his st-rvloea at
that time James K, Tolk, then
president, made Meek the first U.

A South Tualatin woman, who
was wedded about a year ago cele
brated her honeymoon by raisins

taking some young chickens out
from under a settine hen. she loet
her wedding ring. All kinds of
search failed to locate the treasure,
but the dominie came to their
house last Sunday, and ths hus

fastened to the chanticleer's neck
was that wedding ring. When the
housewife had reached under the
hen the ring had dropped over the
chick's head and the yellow down
acted as a foil to the serrcber. The
moral is: Ask the preacher to

J. Palmatecr Case Before
Judge Haglcy, Friday
SIX MEN COt'LD NOT AGREE
Cae One
of Considerable
Many i'dsics
Interest
The caee of State against Lome
Palmateer, chargod with violation
of the Sunday closing law, was
trind before Judge 11. T. Bsgley,
Friday. John M. Wall, deputy
dUtrict attorney, handled the case
for the state, while Baglej & Hare
were counsel for the defendant
There was no denial that Mr.
Palmateer was opoo and that be
made sales, but the ddeo?e urged
that tbe law was purely class legis
lation, inasmuch an it permitted
the restaurant keeper, the hotel
man and the baker, if they wuhed,
to tell both cigars and ice cream,
and that there was no justice in a
statute which thus permitted on
man to sell an articlo while it pro
hibited another from selling the
same thing. The argument seems
to have had its effect, for tbe jury
failed to agree. It was sent out at
5:00 in the afternoon and din
charged about midnight, when it
was said there was no chance of
agreement. The jury in the case
was: Geo. Frot, E. F. McNelly,
Jas. H. Sewell, T. M. Kerr, Auguet
lews and John Hanley.
Palmateer went on the stand
and swore that unlets he was able
to sell on Sundays that it would be
necessary for him to close out his
business, as this was bis best day.
Restaurant keepers and drug stores
were selling, or could eell ice cream
without fear of the law, and they
did sell cigars, which was one of
his priooipal articles, without fear
of arrest, and he did not think the
law intended to discriminate in
aoy such manner as interpreted by
tbe state.
W. G. Hare made a tine ar
gument for the defense, and
handled the caee thoroughly. Geo
R. Bagley reviewed the cIshs bias
of the statute, while Mr. Wall pin
ned bis faith to the law, and de
manded a verdict on that and the
admissions of the defendant that
he was publicly open and made
sales.
It is stated on good authority
that the vote at all times stood
three for acquittal ; two for con
viction; and one voting blank; the
one voting blank having been wili
ng to vote acquittal in case one or
both ot the dissenters came over.
The Walker case was called be
fore Judge Baglsv Monday morn
ing, and dismissed, upoa motion of
Mr. Wall, who stated that he and
the confectioners had an under
standing that tbev might sell ioe
cream and confeolions and parish-
able fruit, lhis matter i given a
hearing in another article on this
page.

After tbe disagreement of tbe
Palmateer jury there was some
hustling around and then a new
situation presented itself. Deputy
District Attorney Wall notified the
confectioners tbat be would permit
them to sell ice cream and con
fections, but they must eell no
cigars on bond ay, and tbe drug
stores also must not sell the weed
tbat makes blue rings and gives
you the blues if you don't get them.
Tbi was the blow that "killed
father, f ir he smokes."
Tbe confectioners opened for busi
ness, but tbe smoker who loves the
weed as he does mankind, was in
the consomme proper. He knew
not that his sacred rights had been
invaded, and he bad laid in no
stock of Sunday smokes. So he
hied to the woods and scraped up
dried oak leaves and sought solace
with an old pipe.
This is the "unkindeet cut" of
all considering, too, that the
deputy district attorney doesn't
einoke! Take away the breakfast
food, the liver pills, tbe booze, the
"banan," and the ice cream, but
give us each day our daily weed

uuxion is waicniog tbe case
with great interest, as there are
manv men working three or four
miles above the place, and scores
do their trading on Sucdiy. The

put in their own commissary so as
to cater to the wants of tbe men
employed this Summer, as they
can not buy euppliea on Sunday at
the Buxton stores. In this man
ner they will save tbe men their

they can sell them goodb during
the week, and the men need lose
no time, commercially it is a
