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

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.

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.

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.
