THE INDEPENDENT. - HILLSBORO : : : : THUBSDAY. 20 Cents A Line. A gentleman in this place wants us to "notice" his business. People who do not advertise are not very apt to get their business "noticed" by the press. A "notice" is the most valuable mode of advertising. News paper men do not like to work with out psy any better than mechanics or any other class of laborers. When in the largeness of his soul the editor does give a free "notice" of a znau's business, on investigation it will be found that the man "noticed" is either an extensive advertiser, or has deposited a respectable sum of coin in the printer's breeches pocket to pay therefor. Go thou, friend, who wanteth a notice and do like wise, and the poor printer will love thee and will cease to "notice" the alarming extent of thy facial area. Twice Married. A worthy couple living in this county lately discovered while trans acting some legal business in Port land that there was no record of their marriage. Their lawyer told them that their having lived togeth in the conjugal relation made them man and wife legally. The husband was satisBed but the wife would not listen to having matters lie in that shape. So this week they came to this place and got a license and were married before a Justice of the Peace costing them altogether $'J. They had been married six years and had several children. . None of Our Business. When men drink liquor and do not disturb tbe quiet of neighbors or exhibit their drunkenness on the street that is their own business and none of. ours. But when they do dis turb t he peace or disgrace our villages with their maudlin conduct they ought to be punished in some way. But when they are brought before courts of justice for their misdemean ors or crimes, then their names be come common property, at the op tion of the editor to publish or not, "as he sees fit. Oar correspondents will please make a note of this. How to Kill a Town. ' An exchange tellingly puts it in this way: " Underrate "every present and future enterprise: speak ill of the churches and the schools; tell verv body that the hotels are bad; enlarge on the vices of the people, es pecially the young people: withhold the patronage from your tradesmen a id merchants, and buy your gro ceries and goods some other place; never subscribe for-your local papers or if you do be sure and let it be known that you take it 'just to keep it up. and never mind about paying for it. and if vou are in business te use to advertise. That is all that will "be necessary." "Jllrt Much." We are requested to notice a cer tain performance for the benefit of certain parties that is to occur in this county, where an entrance fee is asked. We will, do that little job for 20 cents a line in advance. We Lave been tired for a long time of giKing notices to the value of $1.50 and $2.00 to church and society en tertainments, festivals, etc, when we have to pay cash to "see the show" just as others do, but we have not reached that sjblime pitch of gener osity that we can "puflf" gratis for the benefit of private individuals. Row At Harris' Bridge. Mr. Hume and Dr. Mendenhall got into a dispute at Harris' bridge Tuesday evening when, Hume says, Mendenhnll snapped a pistol at him, and Mendenhnll says Hume drew a f-hot-gun on him. Hume came to town yesterday and applied to the Sheriff to have Mendenhall arrested but not having the proper docu ment Mr. Tozier told him he would have to repair to a Justice of the Peace. As the matter is likely to be investigated in court we will let it rest here. A Stampede, Mr. Ebert's stud broke loose from bis fastening at Cornelius the other after-noon and met Messrs. Honsyk and Bedlack between this place and ' Cornelius and stampeded their team, doing no material, damage however. The stud went on and overtaking Mr. Warren's team stampeded it also running the horses into the woods. Mr. W. finally got hold of the blood ed animal and tied him up, but on going to the place next morning found him not. Accidents. On Monday Mr. Honsyk was thrown from his horse which put his arm oul of joint at the shoulder. Dr. Bailey put tbe joint in place . and the suiTerer will be well in time to ; toot him horn on the Fourth (He uviuui iiuiuo uiusouro Dross oauu.; Ill I .1 - - I I "In a Horn; Last Monday Joha Simmons, an other unfortunate, so rash and im portant young and so fair, petered i gave up the ghost, passed in hisch horn, squiddled! cause, he could not scale the gamut. Laying aside all jokes the band is progressing finely and already makes some first-rate music. Vauter has given up his horn and retired from the band it hurt his lungs. Felix is glad that the doctor ex tracted that "knot" in his throat last week. The rats' toe-nails and cats' ears in his hash used to always both er him by catching on the ragged edge of it. He will be able to toot his horn "like sin" on the ge-lorious Fourth. Consequently Felix fee links ate Mix. All so blithe the other morn as Albert and Simmon's John were a blowing their horns, as sure as you are born, there came bellowing like a storm, a bull as big ai unicorn. With tail all twisted like a yarn, he raged arround the barn, and 'long the fence where grew the tender corn, pawing the ground with savage scorn, for he thought it was another bull a tooting of his horn. The folks wunk a wicked wink, and the boys smole a sickly smile and "sloped" but they don't want any thing said about it. Ditley: June 26, 187G. Wm. Shearer has put rustic on his house, built a porch on front and painted the building white. I. Chrisman has bought the spring wagon W. G. Scoggin had at the Fair grounds last fall, for $240. The wood work of the wagon was made in Hillsboro and it was ironed at Dilley. That's right patronize home manufacture. Geo. Johns has sold early potatoes to Hoxter for $1.00 per bushel. That rain last week was a God send. It did the crops a great deal of good. The boys of Dilley put in 12 hours at croquet on Sundays and rainy days here. "Toots" comes back at me about correcting him for counting eggs be fora they were hatched, as to George Hiues building a house and Mr. It jb inson selling his land. If "Toots" executed his own plans as easily as he does for others he might have been pared the nameof old "bachelder." Folks around here do not know which way to go on the Fourth. There arc so many celebrations we do not know which to choose. How far is it to Tillamook, Mr. Editor? We should like like better than any thing else to hear "Toots" bean sup per o-ration. Oi course he will do it justice. I was sorry to learn from from "Grimes" that "Toots" was sick. Hope he will imitate Diogo nes and get his wash-tub 6con. K. Y. Z. Mountain Dale and Glencoe. We took a trip to Mountain Dale recently. Several parties were out there from Portland on a fishing ex cursion and were catchiug fish bv the wholesale. A one-horse blacksmith played himself oflf for a single man at Green ville not long since. He offered his arm to a girl at a spelling school and got the mitten. He then got tight on lager and put on a calico coat, ran a foot-rcce and got beat. He is no Good Templar and wants an of fice. Young girls who want to keep a good name, beware of such a man. A certain man in tl is neighborhood tried that game three years ago but got defeated. Intelligent youth is too smart for villainous old age. OlitfERVEH. Fat Man's Race. Tbe pic-nic to be held at Hillsboro on I he 4th of July will be enlivened by afoot race for a purse of ten dollars. The race is set for 2 o'clock in the- afternoon and will be a laughable sight. We understand that John Hopkins and Dr. Dodge have already entered, their respective weights be ing 180 and 200 pounds. Lively Busl ness. S. Hughes did some lively trading on last Saturday and Monday. Mr. Hughes has the only complete agri cultural rtore in the county and of course in that line of business he will get all the custom. He makes it a specialty and keeps the best and latest brauds and inventions of all kinds of farmers' wares. The Festival. The Good Templar's strawberry fes tival last Saturday drew a full house. Strawberries and cream, cake and bread, were served plentifully, and a liberal sum was netted to the Lodge. Mr. Pomeror stuck an into his foot tbe ! other day. The Grove: June 2Gth, 187C. Miss Bowlby and Miss Curtis started East last Friday. It is reported that Joel Parker has sold his place here, which form erly belonged to Prof. Anderson for $1,500. Prof. Ed. Curtis hs just returned from Umpqua where he has been teaching. Miss Hattie Martin returned from Freeport, W. T., last Friday. She was compelled to suspend her school owing to the flood. The school house was on the Cowlitz river and was partly full of water when she left. The damage in that part of the Territory is immense. Jack Welch has been numbering the streets in this place, which will be very convenient, especially for the various delegations from Tilla mook, Nehalem, Heathen Canyon and Egypt who have recently lost their dogs, which strayed off down to "Grimes" ranch and were worked up into sausage. Jack has pounded 11 head of hogs lately and some of the owners came near pounding Jack. The barber shop is only open on Saturday, the rest of the week being hog days. ltev. Ellis preached his farewell sermon esterday to a large congre gration. Jerome Porter has arrived from Wisconsin. There are several fine chromos in S. Hughes agricultural store. Miss Ada Hughes is the artist. She in tends to go to San Francisco to take lessons in painting. She will suc ceed for she shows natural artistic taste in her paintings. We understand that "Grimes" will have a barbecue on the Fourth, having captured a fat dog in Colum bia slough. Ben Holladay and "Grimes" will make it very pleasant for guests. The late election returns from Tillamook city show that "Grimes" was beaten for dog-pelter by 1,500 votes. He advocated a dog tax on the stump, which made him very un popular. This shows that "Grimes" has an eye to the main chance sausage. "Grimes" chloroformed a dog the other day preparing for his lecture and when feeling for the bone in the dog's tail the canine kicked him in the sausage basket and made him mad. But "Grimes" got full of fleas, an it is now an open question whether the fleas packed him home or he packed the fleas home. He will lecture on dogology at the Cen tennial. Toots Cornelius: June, 20, 187G. The business appearance of our little town is beginning to look up a little. I counted 12 wagons pas sing through its streets at one time yesterday, some hauling staves, five or six hauling wood, others bringing wool to market, etc, etc. The present rain is worth more to this county than any we have had in five years. It has been estimated that it is worth at least $10,000 to this county alone. Most of the grass was spring sown, and much of it would have dried out had it not been for the present showers. Farmers are jubilant and consider the ship is safe. Col. Cornelius has about 25 acres of potatoes in, and they promise an abundant yield. He will probably have teu thousand bushels this fall. Many persons are going to move out here from Portland to remain this summer, as tliej fear there will be a great deal of sickness during the summer when the high tide be gins to recede. Our school will close for the sum mer on next Friday. Miss Smith taught a good school, and acquitted herself well. Mis3 Mary Reeves, one of our most amiable young lad'es, is teach ing at the Licey school house. Report says "Toots" has pur chased an ox to ride over to Neha lem on, to deliver his Centennial address, and we also hear it hinted that my uncle (Old Grimes) will ride behind him and will read the decla ration of Independence and also sing his favorite song. We are sure of having a Demo cratic President next term, for tbe Oregonian says that Hayes will be elected, and I never knew an elec tion to terminate yet as that paper predicted. The Oregonian is a good paper, but it is not very good at guessing on election results. Grimes Jb.

Exercises of the Gamma Sigma Society Of Pacific University On Tuesday Evening FA HE WELL ADDRESS. BT D. C. LATOCBKTTE. Ladies and Gentlemen:--Ve meet to-day to bid farewell to those who have been with us for many pleasant mouths. Five or six years have paused since Rome, and perhaps the most of you, c ime among us aud as we remember the many pleasant hours spent with you in the Society's rooms and call to mind that all those pleasant hours are past, only to live in memory; as we remember that now the unpleasant fare well must be said we can but pause and consider what this sorrow-bringing word implies. Alas! it means too much. It means that the Society's rooms are to bid adieu to yon. one of whom we expect to meet in the Society's rooms as an honorary member but the remaining three are to go to the far off West where we can see you only in imagi nation and whence even hope with her far reaching expectations can scarcely promise a return; but whether you go to the North or the South, to the East or the West, you may have the recollection that in the Soci ety's rooms yon have a record not to be lost in a few days but to continue as long as the name Gamma Sigma remains. For many years have we together run the race for knowledge. You have won and laave us behind to finish our journey. You must no r leave the halls of the Society to go into the wider halls of the world. As I look around me I see those whose locks are silvered and whose faces wear the marks of time; to them eternity is not far away; to tlu-ru the goal is near, and as they look back over a life spent for the good of humanity and see the mountainous road along which their lives have lea l them they can say it is pist. To them the summit is reached and as now they look out into the future they see jast b.dow them the never ending plain of eternity. But with yoa it is different. To you life is mostly future. What is to be is unknown. You now leave the beautiful valley of Youth to commence the ascent of the mountain of life. Diffi culty is before you and toil must be your recreation; but press on yon must and press on every one till the journey of life is past. As we rend the story told by the rocks and fossils of our valleys and mountains we see that long before man came upon this earth, life, both animal and vegetable abounded. In those days when Oregon was under the ocean, marine animals and plants lived and died the same as now, and so has it b h?u ever since aud to-day it is the name with man; man lives, man dies, but is not forgotten. Life is short and as we look out into it we see a world wide with opportunities which urge man on to action; we see a world which needs true, earnest workers and yet a world peopled by a race governed by selfish motives. Life sterns to be a min gled race. Every one is hurrying on to rihes, honor, or fame, regardless of the cost; but within you there lies u power which it is your privilege to wield for the right and the truth, and as you wield that power do not forget that it is "man's to fight but Heaven's to give sncees." Plans are cheap, so if one fails construct another, ever remembering that man plans, and fate defeats. You now have a foundation on which to build a superstructure worthy of your best efforts. Do not allow your life to be con structed without a plan, but decide upon some course and although the winds of for tune and the tide of public opinion oppose you still follow out your designs; for as Ho mer expresses it: "On valor's side the odds of combat lie. The brave live glorious or lamented die. The wretch who trembles on the brink of fame, Sleets d.ath and worse than death, eternal shame." No one has ever yet gained and retained a post of honor or a position of responsibil ity without exertion. Every acquirement costs lulor, but it must be labor directed by some plan. Do not expect to be rocked in the cradle of wealth and soothed by the voice of man bu t have a higher and nobler aim than wealth and empty applause. Wealth should not be the greatest ambition of man, but knowledge should be one of the greatest aims of life. There has been a time in the age of man when muscle was the ruling power and superiority of mind was of little consequence but to day the world is calling for educated men, to day the ones who are gaining distinction and leaving their records on the pages of history are those who excel in mental ability, to day wisdom is at a premium and muacU is below par. In the column of earthly at tainment! wisdom stands at the head. Well has it been said by N. P. Willis "Human praise is sweet till envy mars it. Of new won guld stirs up the pulses well; And woman's love, if in a beggar's lamp, Twould burn might light ns clearly Through the worid. liut knowledge has a Far more wildering tongue aud she ill fctoop and lead you to the stars. And watch you with her mysteries till gold Is a forgotten dross, and power and fame Joys of an hour and woman's careless love Light as the breath that break it. He who binds his soul to knowledge Steals the key of Heaven. So in whatever position of life yon are placed be ever eager to grasp the truths which lie around you and thus pave the road to riches, honor, fame and immortali ty. And let us as we go out into life bind ourselves by a bond of sympathy between our work, ever looking forward to the tiro when there shall be an eternal meeting governed by the ever ruling Ood of the Universe, when hope shall blossom into re ality, when the river of earthly time shall cease its rapid flow, when the tangled yarn of human life be unraveled, when the stars shall lose their mysteries and when to-day's farewell, which now seems as a darkening veil covering a day of enjoyment, will ap pear as one of the atoms which made up the past ages. BEPLY. T KZS SAITO. Many friends and faces who were once familiar to ns here, end with whom we shall nev-r meet again on earth, are fresh ! onlv in oar memories. We, the members of the Gamma Sigma society, have met, as sociated and loved as the brotherhood of a literary society for our mutual improve ment and progress; but to day we as the members of tbe graduating class of 1876, receive the farewell address of tbe members of the Gamma Sigma Society with rever ence, thanks and pleasure for the profound houghts and wise counsels which it con tains, and we must part with you and some of us will visit again the familiar hall of the Society and others shall never meet you again. But the benevolence oft tbe Creator fur nished us a power of tbe mind, which keeps all passing moments in our memories. "Memory" Rays Plato "is the mother of the Muses." and Aristotle sets it oue degree further, making experience the mother of the arts and memory the parent of exig ence. Philosophers place it in the back part of the bead, and it seems the mine of memory lies there because there men natu rally dig for it when they are at a loss. It is the treasure house of the. mind, where the monuments thereof are kept and preserved. The value of this ower to the mind is inestimable. Without it the passing moment, the the impression or tbe sensa tion of the instant, would be the sum total of our intellectual life and of our conscious being. The horizon of our mental vision would extend no further than our present immedi ate perceptions. The past would be a blank as dark and uncertain even as the future. Hut this power of the mind lights up the picture of the past existence to fresh ness and reproducing the formtr scenes and objects, gives mental possession of all that we have been as well as the present moment and lays at our feet the objects of all former knowledge. The mind thus becomes in a measure independent of sense and the ex ternal world. What we have once seen, heard or felt becomes its permanent acqui sition, even when the original object of pcr ception is forever removed. I may have seen the grand rivers and snowy peaks of this country but once in all my life, yet ever after they dwell among my conceptions and in after years on other continents, and amid far other scenes, those visions of beauty and grandeur pass before me as angelic vis ions; that the succession of delightful views travel again the silent chambers of the brain with all the freshness of first reality. The exercise of this mental Kwer is so sweet, it gives me comfort in the hour of gloom, it gives me comfort in the hour of distress and it gives me a sweet release from burdens in tii$ hour of rest. Six years ago I parted with my parents, brothers; sisters and friends and left my dear native laid where the other side of this broad Pacific washes the shore, to come to this land for tin. sake of getting knowledge and wisdom. Since that moment of parting, once passed, I could see them no more except in the tire mi of peaceful night and in the visions of fancy hours, but memory seized the pas sing moment and filled it in my soul's inner c -handier tc be looked upon when I wished to recall. Thus though former years are past yt they are not cone. I live with them over a";tin in remembrance. Is it not sweet to rememlier what happened in our former days? I have since experienced great pleasure aud comfort in my solitary life in this strange land iu recalling what happened to me in try former years in re calling the sincere paternal kindness and love, and tke tender care of maternal affec- ' tion in recalling the scenes, the hills and streams, bright eyes mid laughing faces on which my childish eyes rested and in which my childsh heart was de lighted. These visit me again aud again iu my solitude, as I sit in my chair iu the quiet hours of rest from studies and toil. What gives such pleasure of beauty and grandeur of the past? It is ouly memory. Hut life is not always joyous. The bright hues of every life are also mingled with much calamity and distress, sadness and sorrow, and all of these are, too, to be remembered. And it might lie supposed that while memory, by recalling the pleasing incidents of the past, miht contribute much to our happiness, it would add then an equal de gree to our sorrow, by recalling mufli that is painful to the thoughts. Hut in fact such is not the case. The benevolence of the C'reittor has ordered it otherwise. The very circumstances that tend to renew our grief, and keep alive our tears and sorrow, in c.xse of severe calamity or danger, are still cherished with a satisfaction of which we would not be deprived. There is pleasure iu recalling the lime of disaster and in the remembrance of that for which we grieved. It is sweet to rememlier how I made a narrow escajie from impend ing dangers of Urror and woe. It is sweet to remember how I toiled, persevered, en dured and finally overcame the difficulties and hardships which attacked me for years ard the recollection of all these, is ny teacher and adviser for the future time and it is of more value than millions and tens of millions of dollars. It is sweet to reuiem ber how my teachers and professors of this school have been kind to me through all my school days, and I can ever rememlier the tender care of my dear teacher who was my fiist teacher in the study of the English language and to whom I owe a great debt for her care and kindness, and to whom I wish to-day to express my part ing thanks and gratitude; but in vain. She is sleeping beneath the quiet soil of the beautiful cemetery of Forest tl rove where I can speak to her tomb, but I can never hear the answer. It is sweet to rememlier all my kcIkioI matc with whom I have Wen so intimately associated in the recitation of classes, in the hall of debate of the (lamina Sigma so ciety, in the hour of private conversation, anl in the hours of rest and pleasure, w hen I enjoyed the sweet song and music of my dear friends. I am happy to remember that I have spent such improving and useful hours, days, months and years for the sake of both mental and moral culture, in this jieaeeful town of Forest Grove where the gentle breeze of North Pacific invigorated my fee bit; body, where the instruction of the kind of teachers of Pacific University strength ened my weak nature and whre the peace ful community welcomed and kept me for six j'ears. Hut row the time has come when I must bid yon farewell aud go out into the wide world again for the sake of increasing fur ther my knowledge and wisdom for the good of my people and country. The part ing is the- consequence of the meeting and whoever once have met must rart again. So I met you once, but must part with you again; yet memory fixes all paasing moments of yesterday, to day, and this hour, in our soul's inner chamber and we shall meet you, live and associate with yon over again in the sweet hours of our recollection. Members of the Gamma Sigma society, we, as the gradu ating class, thank you for your worthy ad ore, and as the speaker expressed it, we shall struggle for the increase of our knowl edge and wisdom and work for the good of humanity, and though we are going to part to-day yet we are one in sympathy for your final success and for our future career and we shall remember you beyond our graves. Citizens and friends permit me to give vou my parting thanks and gratitude for your kind treatment during my May of six years in this place, I am about going to leave this town perhaps this week or the next so I shall bid you an affectionate fare well, hoping real prosperity and true hap piness for yourse lsr.d ycur jt tinty. j-p- The National Gold Medal was award ed to Bradley Rulofson for the best Pho tographs to the United States, and Vienna Medal for the best in the world. 529 Montjjonierv Street San Francisco.
