The subscribing ministers, resi dent in Coquille, send greetings and good wishes to their felloiv townspeople and at the same lime make the ful "iving appeal, viz: That «11 law-abiding and ordi-r- loving lesidents of our be) .vcd city, old and young, refrain fiom discerni ng the Christian Sabbath. In order lo l*e more specific: W «.re spectfully appeal to our sports'cen to refrnin from hunting or h'ddtng ! shooting matches on Holiday. We ' ask those who are responsible not ' to arrange for dances »nil miiluiidit J suppers to be held on Saturday night. We urge our young men to arrange for their ball games to fall on some other day than Sunday, and in general we ask that no un necessary business, or boisterous pleasures be carried on on that day. We assign the following reasons for making such requests: 1st. We, the ministers of the gospel, are vitually interested with yourselves in promoting everything that helps and elevates and stimu lates. We therefore do not make this appeal in a censorious spirit, but with an earnest longing for your prosperity, happiness and spiritual welfare. 2nd. Sunday, the Christian Sab bath is the day legally and divinely set apart for the cultivation o f spirit ual graces and moral improvement and physical rest. It is practically the only time when we can present to any considerable proportion of the people the truths of the divine word. We want you in our churches and your families with you. There- lore we ask that you make no other appointments that will interfere with your being at the House of Qod at the appointed hours of ser vice. 3rd. We believe that this day is divinely ordained of God and should be devoted to his service, and if perchance some do not so regard the day. they can well afford to show respect io the conscientious oon- victions of their friends and neigh bors and refrain from desecrating this day, which is a fundamental in stitution of the Christian religion. We are not unmindful that a com pliance with this request would call for self-denial and self-restraint. But the gains in a better social and religious atmosphere, clearer con science and a general improvement in the harmony, good wili and co operation of the whole people would more tbaD compensate for any per sonal sacrifices required. Again appealing to you for your moral support and co-operation, in this matter, we respectfully subscribe ourselves, your fellow townsmen and pastors-of the churches in Co quille. . H. C.

M y e r s . --- ► -•* Pension tost 01 .War- Everybody knows that war is a verv expensive business, but few have any adequate conception of either the itirert ooet or the after cost of a war, especially a large and prolonged war. The chief after cost of our Civil War has been the expenditure for pensions, which to date amounts to the almost un thinkable sum of oyer two and three quarter billion dollars. Besides this, other pensions have been paid as follow: War of the Revolution, ♦70,000,000; War of 1812, $45,000, 000; Indian Wars, (nearly) $9,000, 000; Mexican War, (nearly) $32,000, 300; War with Spain, $3,300,000, making a grand total of $2,814,854, 000. It may be said, and truly, that this money has not been wasted, that it has been spent among our own people, a large portion o f them deserving and many of them needy ex-soldier?; and that the people oould “stand it,” and paid it willing ly. But there is another side to the pension system, as it has been man aged, and that is its demoralizing tendency. While almost everybody is willing and desirous that worthy and needy soldiers should be liber ally pensioned, it is indisputable that a large part of this immense sum has been paid out in conse quence c" fraud, and has tended to the degradation of National char acter, in giving a multitude of people the idea that the Govern ment is an institution primarily established to support some people at the expense of others, and that the main function of the treasury is to supply money to people who do not earn it.—Telegram. Business Badly Managed- Either the Interior Department is over-particular about Oregon “ base” lands, or else the public land business in this state has been wretchedly mismanaged by the State Land Agent and some local land officers Large quantities of lieu lands, based on alleged mineral land selections are being held up by the Interior Department, and probably will be disallowed as min eral lanl "base," in which case the purchasers of the lieu lands will lose them, and will come back on the stnte for their money, which it will be morally bound to repay, or else to supply the purchasers with other lands, in many cases worth several times the amount received by the state for the lands sold. The whole business seems to have been very loosely managed, to use no stronger expression, and it will not be surprising if eventually the state is “ out and injured” to the tune of anywhere from $100,000 to $250.000. It may be that .Secretary Hitchcock, through bis long-atand- ing grudge against Commissioner Hermann, is prejudiced against the Oregon officials, and is inclined to disnllow claims that should be al lowed; but the practice of giving title to lands befffre the state has obtained title, and even before it knows whether it ever will get title, is certainly a very poor way of do ing business— not to mention the strong suspicion of improper col- lusion between certain officials and landgrabbers.—Evening Telegram. A few hints to poultry raisers from the 'Northwest Pacifio Farm er: We neglected to say to our friend whose bens were dying with something like ronpe that after cleaning and whitewashing her bouse thoroughly she should dis infect it. One pint of carbolio acid to one gallon of coal oil makes as good a disinfectant as can ba bad. Sprinkle the floor, walls aDd perches with this eolation and do not allow dianghts and all will soon be well. Hens that are kept in clean houses free from vermin and free from froet are seldom sick. It is a natural thing for the hen to be in good health and at work. It is as natural for her to lay under favor able conditions as it is for her to eat. When she eats well she will lay well if the conditions aie as they shoald be. Try our plan, which is to make the hen comfort able and happy and the very next thing she will do will be to lay. Scaly leg is oaused by a parasite which lives and breeds under the scales; the best remedy is to thor oughly wash the legs in warm soap-suds, to whioh add a small pinch of bi-carbonant of soda. Wipe the legs dry, and apply an ointment' made ofou e part sulphur and four parts vaseline. Repeat two or three times, two or three days upart, aod a cure should be the result.
