A HAN ABOUT TOWN. Prineville has two papers, snd they get along pretty well together. When they do get mad it Is something tike this : " mere to s little paper in this town called the Ocbo co fetven .snd ita little editor is little Johny Douthit. Little Johnv Douthit is s good little bov. He's s little " toiler on the girls. Some times he publishes little things shout the AVn,..,and the Xm gets "mad ss thunder." Poor little Johnv Douthit, JVews. O Much of the "lawiojr" done t from prin ciple. It sriaes from the fact that people do not like lo be imposed on. Men will spend hundred, of dollars in defending s few dollars worth of chattels. While men Sre ouarreline over the cow the lawver Is on a stool mifkinif her. It is not the law yer's fault that he ueta the milk : but his client's. It is the lawyer business to get the cream. It is a mistaken idea though that It to all cream with the members of the legal profession.
