The citizens of Frederick City, Mary
land, are trying to raise money enough
to build a monument to Francis Barton
Key. If the "Star Spangled Banner" is
not monument enough, then the erection
of a column ot pulseless stone and blood
less mortar is wasted.- money and per
verted sentiment.

will pass.
The Pay ton Comedy Co. , . which is
billed to play here next week, commenc
ing Monday night, comes highly recom
mended. The fact that the company
stays for a whole week is evidence of its
ability to give full satisfaction, as it is
willing to show on its merits. Do not
forget that Monday night, seats reserved
before the box sheet is taken - from the
drugstore, will entitle each ticket bolder
to bring a friend.
Hons Meat.
The canning of horse meat may yet
solve the question as to what shall be
done with the range horse. At present
that animal is practically valueless, and
unless he can be eaten, will have to be
exterminated. If a market can be found
for the canned' flesh, it will serve to
clean the range and giye at least a small
return to the owner. There is no reason
why horse flesh should not be as fit for
food as that of any other . animal, the
only objection being prejudice. He is
tbe cleanest and handsomest of all
animals, and yet we draw the line at
feeding on him. It is, indeed, a queer
stomach and a perverse taste that will
demand chicken, the foulest of the fowl,
or hog, the scavinger, and yet refuse the
flesh of the horse. This is good logic,
and yet we confess that it seems rlmout
like dining on one's friend. We do not
hanker after any of it for our own im
mediate use.

The Grave of Nesmltb.
John Minto in Salem Statesman :
You gave notice to my recent hasty
ride in Polk county. Permit me space
to say that in addition to seeing some
of tbe most beautiful country the eye
ever looked . upon, generally well culti
vated where culture is essayed, I took a
brief half hour to visit the resting place
of the body of the late James W.Nes-
mitb, eminent as a pioneer and patriotic
citizen. Tbe place was of his own selec
tion, on tbe south bank of the La Creole
river, in the shade of a fir gnve. It is
a beautiful spot, within the domain he
received as a reward for his pioneering.
A beautiful shaft of polished granite
rises from tbe unpolished block of the
same enduring material, wisely chosen
for a fit memorial stone tor the charac
ter of the man whose memory it tends
to preserve. The lettering reads :
Jamea Wilfcet Nesmith.
. A pioneer of 1843.
Judge under the provisional govern
ment in 1845.
United States marshal 1853-55.
Colonel of volunteers in 1855.
. Superintendent Indian affairs '57-59.
United States senator 1861-67.
Representative in congress 1873-75.
Born July 23, 1820.
Died June 17, 1885.
An upright judge.
A brave soldier.
A wise legislator.
' An honest man.
Here is a record for posterity to be
proud of, the best of which lies in its
absolute truth. The country he helped
to name and the state he helped to found,
and to which he gave bis service, alike
have reason for pride in his life and
character.' s i
The state of Oregon has done iteelf
credit by placing upon the balls of its
capitol likenesses of its governors and
the friend of the early pioneers. It can
well afford to go a step further and place
within its halls tbe portraits of at least
three of its earliest pioneers Peter H
Burnett, Jesse Applegate - and J. . W.
Nesmith. I submit this last suggestion
for the pioneers at their approaching
meeting. .
Excursion Postponed. "'
. The excursion and picnic to be given
by the Redmen's Social club, of this city
on May 12th, to Bonneville and Cascade
Locks has been postponed until further
notice. This postponement is made on
account of the cold, disagreeable weather
that has prevailed during the week, and
the ruga water at present precludes a
comprehensive view of the government
works at tbe Cascades. R.
