A clergyman walking on the outskirts
of his parish one dav found one of bis
parishoners whitewashing his cottage.
Pleased at tills novel manifestation of
the virtue that is next to godliness, he
complimented the man on his desire for
residence of Mre. f neatness. With a mysterious air the
worker descended from the ladder and
approaching tho fence eaid: "That's
not exactly the reason why I'm doin' of
this ere job your Worship. Tho last
two couples as lived here had twins, so
I bcs to my missus, I'll take and white
wasli tho place so's there mayn't bo no
infection. You see, sir, as how we've
got ton of 'em already."
Secretary Fred V. Wilson, of the Ore.
tfjn Wool Growers' Association, re
ceived a letter today from the superin
tendent of tho Cascade Forest Reserve
eaying it would bo impossible for iiiin to
attend tho meeting called for June 2nd.
As tlio opportunity of meeting dipt.
Ormsby and having him decide the va
rious applications for summer ranges
was tlio main purposo for which the
meeting was called, tho date has been
changed to May 20th, at which time tho
superintendent has telegraphed he will
be present. It is expected a large num
ber of sheepmou will attend, us the
business before the meeting will bo of
much importance.

If she is uuable to got over tho rapids

"Cyclone" Davis opened tho cam
paign at the Baldwin opera house last
night. About two hundred persons
were present, many of whom left before
the performance was over, although it
only lasted a little over an hour. Waeco
county Democracy were repretented on
tho platform by John Douthit, John
Gavin and J. II. Jackson. They bad
tlio heartfelt sympathy of mott of the
little audience. For the speech of Davis
was a disappointment. It was more
than a disappointment. It was an in
sult to the intelligence of a Dalles audi-
ience. Liavis conglomeration of e anir.
uad grammar, cheek, falsehood, trail.
tergiversation, mendacity, misrepresen
tation, vulgarity and calamity was cer
tainly never purpassed here nor else
where. The money question was placed
in the forefront: and the old, lying gas
anent Ernest Seyed'e connection with
the "crime of '73 that has been so pul
verized to atoms tliut its own mother
wouldn't own it, was told with an aban
don of gall and mendacity that left no
other conclusion but that iu a Dalles
audience the Cyclone supposed he had
struck a lot of backwoods sucker?.
The trusts and the policy of expansion
camo iu for their share of "cyclonic in
vective, but when the speaker, at the
close, came to repeat the old Populist
wail of calamity and woo that wo used
to hear in '00 and earlier campaigns, it
wttB then ho showed liimself peculiarly
at home. If the speech of last night
made ono convert, then the Lord have
mercy on the party that has secured his
vote. An intelligent business man w ho
need to vote the Democratic ticket, said
to the writer at the closo of the meeting,
"I'll give one hundred dollars to keep
that man lecturing here, in the interest
of the Republican party and policy, till
the close of the campaign."
