We called attention a few days ago to
the efforts being made by the merchants
of La Grande to encourage and promote
the snccesa of the district agricultural
fair to be held at La Grande in Jfoveui
ler, and urged that similar efforts here
M-ould insure the success of oor district
fair. A late dispatch informs ua that
m Union county lodge of the farmers al
liance has supplemented the merchants,
efforts in a way that ought to promote a
profitable rivalry among the farmers
themselves, and materiallyjcontribute to
the success of the fair. The lodge has
decided to place on exhibition at the dis
trict fair, a display of fruits, vegetables,
grains, grasses and other products, to rep
resent their section of the county. They
have invited the alliances from other
)arts of the county to do the same, and
the result should lie a competition
which will attract much attention from
strangers attending the fair,. Why
should not the alliances and grangers of
this second eastern Oregon district copy
the example of their brethren in Union
county? Or why should not Three Mile
reek compete with Five-mile, and Five
mile with Eight-mile and Eight-mile
with Fifteen mile, and these or any of
them with, Warn ic, or Hood Kiyer.or
Mosier or The Dalles? We have, got the
stuff wherewith to make a creditable ex
hibit. A little effort last year at tbe
Portland fair, and we carried off tbe
first prize for the best exhibit of fruit,
while we had the whole northwest to
.compete with. . A little effort to make
our coming fair a success and thus ad-
rertise our resources would come back
;to us with a thousand-fold increase.
Henator Peffer of Kansas, has been
-airing his notions on finance, in the TJ.
S. senate. The republic was going to
the dogs, of course. This was his major
premise. There was no way to save it
except by destroying usury. He" be
lieved congress had perfect authority to
lend money to the people as much as to
provide for carry ing the mail packages
or determining the rates which the W
railroads may charge for carrying
freight or .passengers. His bill,,
whose passage he was urging, provides
that no corporation or firm is hereafter
to receive more than 5 per cent interest
on short time, nor more than 4 per cent
for-a year or longer. All of which goes
to prove that all the fools in the country
-are not confined in the lunatic asylums.
When congress shall have power to com--pel
a man to loan his money at 4 per
ent, when the law of supply and de
mand has fixed its price at o or 6, or S
or 10 per cent, then . congress will have
power to rix the price of wheat or any
- other commodity. Senator Peffer's at
tempt to fix the price of money, by con--gressional-interference,
is as likely to
succeed as if he attempted to fix the
-subscription price of newspapers. The
-tiling cannot le done. -
At the !ate Minneapolis convention,
Ingalls, of Kansas, sent to the desk the
following resolution which passed the
house unanimously: "Resolved, That
the secretary of the convention prepare
a full report of tire national republican
convention of 185C, 1860 and 1864, and
vause it to be sold at the cost of printing,
and a similar arrangement should lie
made for the publication of the proceed
ings of this convention."' This ought to
make an interesting document. In
whatever light men may, view political
- parties and principles, it is a remark
able fact that every plank in the first
platform -of the republican party has
since been incorporated in'our national
laws. '.

AN INTERESTING ROMANCE OF A
THOUGHTLESS PAINTER. -
Th Widow Who Came to DUpoaaeas tha
' Negligent. Artist Staid to Accept ills
Lme, aad Later His Hand and Heart.
A Little Child Led Them.
There is a friend of mine, a painter,
who has all the talents and no talent of
.'his own.- He would copy or imitate a
Greuze or a Watteau to perfection. A
Diaz by him only wants the signature,
which an unscrupulous dealer does not
hesitate to forge. . My friend, whom we
will call Durand, is an excellent man,
industrious and clever, but too negligent
to take the initiative in anything, even
in painting. Well, he had given notice
to quit his apartment in July, on ' the
fifteenth day of the month, at noon, ac
cording to the customs of the country.
He had, however, been so absorbed in
his painting that he had forgotten to re
tain a wagon to take away his furniture,
and when he did at last concern himself
about the matter he only succeeded in
securing one for the end of the day. ' But
at noon precisely! just as he was putting
the finishing touches to a copy of
Greuzo's famous VCrucbe-Cassee," there
came an imperious knock at the door.
It was the new tenant, escorted by her
furniture. She was furious to find that
Durand was "dawdling over his paint
brushes," while all her furniture was
out in the street exposed to the gaze of
indiscreet passersby. She even threat
ened to send for the police in order to
bring Durand to a sense of his duties as
an outgoing tenant.
Durand, like many painters, thought
the sea more charming than ever when
agitated by a storm, and concluded that
his fair visitor was rendered more beau
tiful by her anger. She was about
twenty-five years of age. She had dark
hair and blue eyes, a fine, supple figure,
and her pretty nostrils were slightly
dilated by her emotion. She was ac
companied by a little girl of six years
of age a little golden haired fairy.
"What!" continued the irate lady, "you
are not going away until 5 o'clock? It
is absurd! What am I to do with my
furniture? Where is the proprietor? I
must see the proprietor!" It was im
possible to gratify her last wish. The
.concierge alone was available, but the
newcomer was so terrible, so aggressive
and so threatening that Cerberus was
tamed and ran away, leaving his broom
behind him.
INLOENCK OF A CHILD.
Durand ought, according -to his sys
tem of imitation, to have become wrath
ful, too, but his adversary was a pretty
woman, so he sought an ally. The lit
tle girl was playing with a ; shepherdess
in porcelain -de Saxe that adorned one
end of the chimney piece. "Should yon
like it?" "Oh, yes; it is so pretty!"
"Take it.r "Jeanne," said the mother,
"1 forbid yon to accept anything." "If
it were only to please her," - replied
Durand, "1 could understand your pro
hibition, bnt it is an economy for me.
I shall, have so much less to move."
Women ar ready laughers. The lady
fixed her eyes on the wall in order to
keep her countenance. "Your name is
Jeanne?" said the painter. "Yes,4" an
swered the child. "And your papa
where is he?" "He died two years ago."
"And mamma is a widow?" "Yes, mon- j
sieur." 1
Then-turning to the lady, Durand
apologized for his sins, told her" that he
had cleared one room and that he would
go and help , her get her furniture in.
ooii the furniture began to find its
placo the wardrobe, the mirror, the
bookcase. "Oh, madame, without know
ing you, us I look at these books I can
read your mind. Balzac, Hugo, Laniar
trae" "Ta, ta, ta," cried the irate
lady, "you would have done better to
clear out before noon than to be trying
to study my character!"" "I am work
ing all the time, madame. Look! 1
have put that console ' there here the
statue of the Virgin this little mirror
opposite the window." "Oh, it is no
use: you cannot make peace with' roe!" '
WRATH TtTftNETJ TO LOVE.
There was an interval of twenty min
utes, during which the lady stood at the
window. Durand had remained .in his
room with the child. "Are they com
ing today or tomorrow your men?" she
asked angrily as she came back into the
room; but she stopped in the middle.
Jeanne, motionless and smiling, was
seated on a chair and Durand was paint
ing ner portrait. "Mamma," -said the
little one suddenly, "I am hungry. You
have some wine and a pate in the big
basket." "Como, then, and breakfast on
the balcony," murmured the -mother.
Durand was left alone to' i finish ms
sketch. There was a silence Of ten min
utes. . Then the child, returned timidly.
"Mamma has . something to ask you."
"What?" "She does not dare.". "She
wants to turn me out?" "No." "What
then?" "Mamma would like to know if
yon if you would like a piece of pate."
This happened on July 15, and when
the concierge arrived, all trembling, to
announce that the men had at last came
to remove Durand's furniture, he-found
him sitting on the balcony at table with
the mother and dandling the child on
his knees. " ... . i. ,
JOisiotTunes, However,7 - never come
alone. - The wagon was too small. -It
would not .hold all Durand's thinks at
once. "Leave - you palette,' your easel
and your pictures," said Jeanne; "I will
take care of them, and then you will
be obliged to come vback again and
finish my picture." He left them. He
only Came mto 'possessicra'of' them 'on
Jan. 15, when he. brought all. his fur
niture back into his ' own-' room. This
time, however,-there -was no difficulty
about the outgoing tenant for 'she had
meanwhile become Durand's wife, and
the two" households 1 were merged into
one. Pans Cor.' Philadelphia Bulletin.

TO THE PUBLIC. It having come
to our knowledge that a party in
The Dalles in selling lime has made the
assertion that he charges more for other
brands than the "Oregon" because they
are better, thereby implying that the
"Oregon" is an inferior article, we desire
to state that the "Oregon" is the strong
est lime on the market ; that it -will work
more plastic and leave the work when set
stronger and firmer than any other lime at
present manufactured in either Oreeon
or Washington. Wm. Butlerds Co., Agents
at The Dalles for the "Oregon" lime, are
instructed to furnishj free of charge, any
and all Oregon lime, which -does not folly
come up to the stipulations -above set
forth. The object of this notice is solely
