NOTHING GAINED BY SCHAP
PIXO. The general acceptance of the an
cient adage tnat "misery loves com
pany ' appears at first glance to be
a tacit acknowledgment of the lu
nate meanness of human nature
rather than the nobleness of Its
lcals. Is It not rather, the desire
)r sympathy that is never so well
xpressed as when a fellow creature
as experienced the same grief that
prdens your heart that makes
misery love company," rather than
a deslro thnt another should suffer
simply because we do. These
thoughts wore prompted by the
knowledge that the city of Portland
Is at present troubled with difficul
ties thnt have arisen in its city coun
cil similar to the troubles in Marsh
field. It goes to prove that Marsh
field Is not alone in these troubles.
Thoy are as universal as humanity.
They are co-existent with human
nature. A knowledge of this fact
should help us to bring n broad
charity to the solution of these
troubles. The councllmon and the
mayor of Marshfield are no better
and no worso than mayor's and
councllmeu of thousands of Ameri
can municipalities. It is the muni
cipality where the counciimen and
mayor by exercising uncommon
common sense harmonize their dif
ferences and work together for the
general-good of the entire city that
the greatest good is accomplished.
This should be the aim and effort of
the mayor and city council of Marsh
fiold. In discussing the Portland difficul
ties the Telegram has the following
Iditorlal which Tlio Timc3 com
nonds to Marshfield olflc'als for
ending and consideration. It is not
icrsonal because it was written for
mother city but it expresses tlio at
titude of the public toward such con
ditions when they ariso:
"To tho city council and the mayor
the wordy and acrimonious alterca
tions conducted by the two may ap
pear lo contribute somewhat to the
Btiycty of nations, but it strikes the
averago man of this city with some
thing akin to disgust. It Is not busi
ness In itsolf, nor does it accomplish
anything that has tho somblance of
business. Hoth pait'"s might under
stand, if their pore, 'itlons were not
dulled by petty nnger .that tho peo
ple of Portland are heartily tired of
tho stale and silly exhibition.
"In the chief matter at Issue, that
of public lighting, there is no more
excuse for this official tomfoolery
than In tho discussion of any other
subject which affects tlio Interests of
the city. The taxpayer is inclined to
regard this subject with calm and
unruffled temper, and Inasmuch as
ho foots the bills, whatever the out
come, the mayor and tho council
might manage to consider it as ra
tional men, and without tho vulgar
clamor which baa characterized their
discussions.
If there Is a way to get cheaper
lighting tho people of Portland want
to bo shown that way. If the city
can own and operate its lighting
plant to advantage, well and good.
Nothing remains but to Investigate
and discover tho data which lias a
practical business-llko bearing on
that proposition. This is not to bo
accomplished by an exhibition of
personal animosity between the ex
ecutive and legislative branches of
tho oily government. Such a meth
od of transacting so Important an
affair is not what the people of Port
land expect; nor Is it what they will
bo disposed to tolerate for any con
siderable length of time. What Is
desired Is that sober, serious con
sideration belli tint; a body of respectable-
business men. and not the scold
ing and vituperation that would do
credit to a convention of llsh-wlves.
If the council Is In favor of an In
vestigation of i ho public-lighting
quoBtlon that will determine at the
onrliest possible date whothor we
might not adopt some other more
economical sstem, or whether,
under present conditions, wo nro
paying too much for tho service we
get, why not hae imido that fact
plain from tho very outsot? This
would have been decidedly more to
tho purpose than nbuslug tho mayor.
On tho othor hand, If tho mayor has
any definite and prnctical plan which
ho thinks will Insure grentor eco
nomy in public lighting, without en-

Who much receives, but no

LITTLE ailt. LITTLE.
Little Mr. Little is a timid little
man,
Whose little life is ordered on a
very modest plan,
Ho owns a little cottage, he runs a
little shop,
He hasn't any hankering to clamber
to tho top,
Ho makes a little profit on the goods
ho has to sell,
And when he seeks his little bed
he sleeps exceedingly well.
Little air. Little is a man you'd
never note,
His hat is five and something, and
he wears a rusty coat,
The trolley rush upsets him, he
never gets a sea",
And half the leading men in town
have trodden on his feet;
But little children love him, though
his clothes are out of style,
And dogs run out to meet him, and
vag their tails and smile.
Of learning he has nothing, of talent
not a spark,
He doesn't own one quality com
manding of remark,
With mind too small for envy or
pride or guile or greed,
This little Mr. Little 13 a funny sort,
indeed;
And yet the host of friends he has!
in every block are scores,
For little air. Little's heart i3 big
as all outdoors.
You never have to dun a Coos Bay
man who owes you a grudge.
Some of tho charity that begins at
homo makes a quick get away.
Thcro are some people on Coos Bay
who look easy unitl you try to do
them.
