CHRISTMAS DAY.
A happy custom has made the
Christmas holidays a time for an
unusual outpouring of friendli
ness and love. We exhibit too
much the harder side of our na
ture, and it is well for our race
that we have occasions whose
memories and traditions brings
subtly into play our more tender
emotions. Oil this day, at leatt,
let us forget malice and selfish
ness, unseal the fountain of
kindliness, and wish each other,
in truth, a merry Christinas.
.There are those who are mak
ing themselves ridiculous. They
are like the the Israelites of old
they want a sign. Senator
Mitchell must say something.
Now those people forget that the
senator not only has said that
something, but has done it. One
year ago he served notice upon
J. el ler ana company tnat lie is
not of them. , He voted for the
Uinsrley tarin bill, which was a
test . on the financial question
That was a time before the prom
inence was attached to currency
that it has since obtained. La
ter Senator Mitchell endorsed the
St. Louis republican platform
ana made not one, out many
speeches in support of McKin-
ley and Hobart Not once did
he sulk in his tent. What more
can a man do to entitle him to
be recorded as a republican. He
has always voted the republican
ticket from i860, if he was
then old enough, down to 1896.
He has always supported repub
lican measures in Congress by
his voice and by his vote. Can
some of his interrogaters say as
much? Hillsboro Independent
The repeal of the law crea
ting the railroad commission
should be the first work of the
legislature at the coming session
In its stead a maximum rate bill
should be passed or the law pro
posed by Hon. H. V. Gates of
Hillsboro, two years ago. Mr.
Gates' bill proposed that the
commission consist of three
members to be elected by the
people, their salaries and expense
01 maintaining said commission
io be derived from a tax on the
railroad property within the
state, This bill passed the house
two years ago, but could never
be gotten out of the committee
in the senate because Joe Simon,
the patron and friend of corpo
rate influence, would not permit
it to be brought out, for it would
have passed the senate as easily
as it did the house. Heppner

Alsea Jottings.
This is Christmas and we wish
you a merry, merry Christmas. -
We have lots of salmon now,
and that means glory for the small
boy and some older ones, too. Come
and try it.
We expect that the people of
Alsea will have a regular jollifica
lion, Christmas, as a large number
of our young people will be at
home. ,
Lucian Fullerton and Roy Ortell
came home on a visit a short time
ago. Roy returned to his work
below ucrvaliis, but Lucian re
mained at home.
Frank Howell, -who has been
down on French Prairie for the
past few months, has returned.
Now the fish and mountain sheep
had better look wild, as Frank is a
great fellow for mutton.
We hear that Mr. Trout, of Hon
ey Grove, has sold his farm ami is
going to settle, on the Long loin
near Monroe. While we bid new
neighbors welcome, we regret to
see Mr. Trout and his family leave
us. We wish them well, where
ever they go.
Jesse Tharp, who is attending
the O. A. C. at Corvallis, is expect
ed home and his people are pre
nanus to give a social dance on
the occasion. That there will be ;
good time, is an established fact
as Mr. and Mrs. Tharp and their
family know how to make their
guests happy. " We will be glad
to bee Jesse again.
Wm. J. Howell spent several
days in Alsea, rain bound. He
left last Monday for Corvallis where
he now lives. Mr. Howell was m
tent on driving a hog to town: it
looked rather difficult, but Mr. H.
thought he could accomplish the
feat. Later We are told that
Mr. Howell and his hog arrived at
his home Monday night st eight
o'clock, tired but safe.
Clarence Vidito, Donna Long
bottom, George Childs and Miss
Mattie Chandler returned last week
to spend the holidays with their
respective parents, also to. meet
and have a good time with their
many friends. We bid them
hearty welcome, and hope they
may forget dull books and hard
lessons for a short time, then re
turn to school revived and with
determination to succeed.

How many of the fruit grow
ers have thoroughly looked for
borers in the roots of their peach
and prune trees? Prof. E. R.
Lake, superintendent of the big
prune orchard, "Pruneota," in
Benton county, informed us a
short time ago that every tree on
the place is examined carefully
once a year and enough borers
are found and destroyed to fully
justify the work. A prune tree,
with one or more borers working
in its roots just below the ground
is not likely to thrive. Rural

Remedies for Scab on Sheep.
For the benefit of those who
may be troubled with this disease
in their flocks, I will give my ex
perience m doctoring this very
common complaint among sheep.
. I have used corrosive sublimate
and tobacco and find it a safe cure
for scab, if properly handled, but
much more expensive than other
remedies. It requires six pounds
of corrosive sublimate and ten
pounds of tobacco to 100 gallons
of water. The corrosive sublimate
should be placed in a wooden ves
sel and hot water poured on it,
and thoroughly stirred until dis
solved, and the tobacco should be
boiled for some time; then put the
medicine in dipping vat, and keep
the water quite warm, to 110 de
grees. Hold the sheep iu dip from
one to three minutes, and rub well
the badly effected places, to assist
penetration. Two dippings about
fourteen days apart will cure any
case of scab, by changing the pas
ture or range. I think this is im
portant. I have also used lime and sul
phur and tnniK tins is equally as
good a.s the other remedy and very
much cheaper; but great care
should be taken to thoroughly dis
solve the sulphur.
You should use twenty pounds
of sulphur and ten pounds of lime
to 100 gallons ol water. The lime

The two latter probably fxcelled
from a strictly literary stand
point. Miss liarclay s essay.

Her articulation was distinct and
her pronunciation perfect.
Mr. Howell's oral ion showei

livered with force and earnestness.
He was original in his treatment
of his subject, but his delivery
was mi rred by misprououncialiou

Saturday evening Miss Craw
ford's class in elocut on furnished
an excellent program at the col-
lego chapel. It was the first ap
pearauce of Miss Crawford's-pu
pils and each member taking part
evidenced careful .Mid capable
training. The entertainment was
appropriately annouuevd as an
"Evening with Loiifrlellow," the
entire program being devoted to
a study of the lite and works o
that celebrated American author.
Perhaps the most entertaining
number wits 'The Launching of
the Ship," which was especially
well rendered bv a class of 12
young ladies. The recitations,
' Paul Iievere'a Ride," by Frank
Hague, and "Sandolphin," by Miss
Olive Hamilton, were both very
favorably commented upon, a
was also the- sketch of Longfel
low's life bv Miss Ella OxMo. A
sketch from. ''The . Courtship of
Miles Standish ," bv Dennis St oval
was interesting, but the hit of the
evening was an essay on Long
fellow, most artistically rendered
by "Pap" McAllister.
An Evening With Burns, j
On Monday, evening last, at
the Baptist church, a high-class
entertainment, entitled "An even
ing with Burns, " was greatly en
joyed by an excellent and ap
preciative audience which listen
ed with rapt attention to- a bio
graphical sketch of the life of
the great Scotch bard, delivered
by Prof. J. B. Horner, of the
O. A. C, in his most interesting
aud pleasant manner. Most
vividly he portrayed .' him in his
greatness and his weakness, in
his triumphs and his struggles,
and his merits and his poverty
inculcating many valuable les
sons trom his checkered . career.
Many large colored drawings
were 1 exhibited, showing the
most noted places connected
with the poet's life or referred to
in his verses.
At the conclusion -of the lec
ture, which was , roundly - ap
plauded, little Gail Hare recited
very sweetlv the beautiful poem,
"Hisfhland Mary," and received
her due measure of applause.
Miss Crawford, instructor 01
elocution at the O. A. C-, then
favored the audience by reading,
most admirably, two choice se
lections from the poet's works,
and, uidsring irom the manner
in which they were received,
they must have been greatly en
joyed. ,
The exercises were closed with
the recitation of "Tarn O'Shan
ter" by Hon. John Burnett, who
delivered it in his own inimitable
style, and to the -great delight of
the audience.
Thus closed what many con
sidered one of the most delight
ful events of the present season.
The Baptist church and pastor
tender their heartiest thanks to
all who aided in making it such
a creat success, thereby tending
to greatly increase their finances,
