We clip from Tuesday's Salem Statesman
tho following complimentary notice of our
growing city: "Eugene City has improved
more within tho past two years than any
other city iu the slate, nutsido of Portland
and Salem. There docs not seem to bu any
"boom" iu Eugene, but the growth is evi
dently the result of the legitimate growth of
business, extension of trade and confidence
of her people iu the city's future. Eugene
City is a very pretty little city, and the third
in tho state in point of commercial import
ance, and her people seem determined to
maintain this stand." Bob you should have
omitted Hiiiotu in the above.

A Poem With a Moraf.
He was reared iu the lap of luxury,
Had do euro with his daily broad.
But the fickle goddess had willed it
That trouble should fall on his head.
From his old man's well-carnod thonsandl
Ho hud hitherto drawn his supplies,
But when tho old man made a "bust np"
The young one opened his eyes.
He found that the wreck of their fortune
Had been helped by ads of his own,
And he learned that constant dropping
Hud worn away the stono.
There are limits to human endurauce,
And limits in drawing cash,
But he never thought ought about It
Till the old uiiiu weut to smash.
When his hmdon-cut pants grew seedy,
And he longed for another pair,
A staunch friend said: "Go to Simon,
You're suro to get them there."
So he hastened in that direction,
He swore "by gawgs"there is no difference
At least so far as I see,
Between Slicheiii's high-priced trousers
And what Simon asks you to buy,
So Simon shall have my custom,
And a pair of his pants I'll try.
They were sent home and he tried them,
His countenance beamed with delight.
And his best girl said they were "killing,"
Wheu he called on her that night.
Ever after he practiced economy,
Was thrifty, contented and wise,
And thanked tho good angel who sent him
A fiieud to open his eyes.
