We wish to call special attention to

The fotball team has disbanded, and
it ia to be regretted that they did not
have a chance to show what they were
made of. The team has done its best to
arrange a game, but no one would accept
J our challenge. We had a game arranged
' with the Portland high school team, but
they withdrew , saying tiiat we played
"first team" men. Well, we did play
llirst team men, but they were high
; school students, which right gave them
' the privilege of playing. As there is no
I foundation for their excuse, we have set
! it down as a plain, simple case of fenr.
j As this Is near the end of the term !
I and as we look back over what wo have 1
I done, we realize that there has been 11
I higher degiee of excellence in the stand
ing of the students than ever before.

I KniroH Ciikonii'I.k : I have fiequent

It seems strange to law-abiding citi
.una that such u matter, that is of such
vital importance to the youth of this
community, (not speaking of the injus
tice to Indians.) should be ellowed to
pass apparently unnoticed by the officers
of the law. as this seems to be. It is a
frequent occurrence to see young men
j from 15 to 19 years of ngo coining out
j from different saloons in a state of intox
1 ication. There Is no excuse for tnis, for
a saloon man would either have to be
dead drunk himself or a 'fool, or, worst
of all, lost to ull shiise of shame, if he
did not know or could not see that these
beardless striplings are under age.
Havn't we enough fathers in this town
who are enough interested in their boys'
welfare to put a stop to this dastardly
trallic, indulged in, us far us the saloon
j keeper is concerned, for mere beastly
gieed of gain, to take this matter up anil
see that it is stopped? Let us hear from
vim. A F.vnu.'it.

That Is what one of our competitors;
says, and ha right. The idea of buy

is an absurd proposition, especially
when lino piano3 and organs are going
at such prices that will enable any ouu
to make u Christmas present that has a
value lo it all the year around. At

can have a piano or organ 011 teims to
