Farmers are jubilant since their
gram is covered by snow, which will
protect it from "freezing out."
Along with the inconvenience of
snow, do not forget that it is a great
fertilizer and. aids the lands greatly by
dispelling a surfeit of oxygen .
Have you enjoyed the hilarity of a
sleigh-ride?
Oh, those Mis! Cow bells! What
jollity their music tells Lamkin's cow
bells! Wrapped up in a robe was Jobe,
and his mighty soil a swelling, as some
body went through town a yelling, with
the jingles a belling Cow bells!
Please call and pay your subscrip
tions and begin the new year with a clear

Dr. Bowl by, of Forest drove, visited
Hillsboro to-day, and made us a pleasant
call.
Now is a good time for farmers io
get their plows, harrows and farming
implements in good condition so that no
time may be lost in making repairs when
time will be valuable in the spring at
seeding time. Give all your machinery
a thorough overhauling, bring your
plows to the blacksmith shop and have
them sharpened, and be ready for
"making haste slowly."

--McMinnville is now supplied with
mail from Portland twice- a day, the
evening train having consented to accom
modate the public in the matter without
cost of carriage. Hillsboro will be
similarily favored if our people make
the request. A morning and evening
mail would be a great convenience to
the people of both Forest Grove and
Hillsboro anil we Lope the citizens of
these towns will make an effort and
secure this Increase of mail service.
When the eyes become weak or the
lids inflamed and sore, a disordered sys

There appears to be trouble in the
camp of Company E, scconl regiment,
at Corvallis. The members are attempt
ing to read Captain Smith out of office,
and he threatens to have the whole com
pany court-martialed. Nevertheless the
privates persist in demanding his
resignation. Tho alleged cause of the
trouble is that the captain is not
competent to drill the company. The
matter will be referred to the state
military board.
The evening mail from Portland is
quite an accommodation to the people of
this city. What we need now is to have
the express train leave here an hour later
and make better time. If the managers
of the road lived in McMinnville they
would understand the situation and
remedy the faults. Reporter.
The Chinamen reported as killed at
Newton station last week, has come to

Gilbert Mills, special examiner, of
the United States pension bureau, has
been in Oregon since last October, look
ing into pension business. There are
sixty-nine pensioners of the war of 1812
in the state. Of. the entire number,
tiiere are about seven who have seen
actual service in that war, all of whom
are over ninety years of age. Mr. Mills
found that the ages of the widow pen
sioners range from fifty to seventy-five
years, and as the war of 1813 was de
clared nearly seventy-five years ago,
many of them were not born then.
When quite young they married the
soldiers of the war, whom they survive
by many years.

shotgun, one barrel of which has been

The following dispatch from San
Francisco, of date January 14th, will be
found of interest to wheat growers, in
asmuch as it is likely to affect the price
for the better in this valley: "Wheat
freights have dropped to such a low
figure that wooden ships are rapidly ob
tainable to go to Liverpool direct for
shillings per ton. The German iron ship
Richard Wagner has just been chartered
for 21 shillings per ton, the lowest rate
ever paid for an iron ship going to
England. Shin owners ask 28 to 30
Q -
shillings per ton for vessels to come here
from England, and 21 and 22 shillings
from Australia."
Owintr to the inclemency of the

Some months ago a prominent phy
sician of Aurora, Nebraska, finding his
health failing from overwork and other
causes, left his practice and moved to
Chicago. Arriving there he devoted
himself to the practice of a specialty
and advertised his business in the papers.
For this the state board of health revoked
his certificate, which debarred him from
the practice of his profession either in a
general or a special line. The physician
brought action in the circuit court
against the state board of health, and
Judge Waterman of that court a few days
ago rendered a decision in which the
ruling of the state board was declared to
be unconstitutional. This decision, in
effect, is that a physician has the same
right to advertise his business as has a
grocer or dry goods dealer or real estate
operator, and that restrictions upon that
right are unconstitutional. The doctor
is to be congratulated upon being in
strumental in bavins this decision
awarded. The practice may be slightly
unprofessional, according to the strict
ideas of the "regulars," but this has
nothing to do with the right of the in
dividual to advertise himself as a
physician or to call public attention to
the fact that he is devoting his euerr;ie
to the practice of a special branch of
medicine.

Rev. G. E. Gerowe, who came from
the east to accept a position as teacher in
the United States Indiau training
school at Chemawa, under the charge of
Superintendent Lee, resigned his po
sition on Monday . Mr. Gerowe went to
Portland yesterday, and will return to
his home in the cast, immediately. Mr.
Gerowe is a highly educated man and a
thorough gentleman. lie was most
efficient and painstaking in his position
pre-eminently the right man in the
right place, and his treatment should
have been such as to warrant him in re
maining at the school. Hi place will
be hard to till. This school, under its
present management, is nothing more
nor less that a festering place of jealousy
and discontent, and it takes a man with
the patience of Job and the meekness of
Moses to remain there and retain his
self-respect for any length of time. It
is a public nuisance and a disgrace to the
interior department. It needs a new
superintendent worse than any institu
tion within the range of the writer's
knowledge. Salem Statesman, 18.

The ensuing dispatch from Stock

taken from the San Francisco Post of
January 12th, will prove of interest to
some Oregon people: "Mrs. McGee, a

of forcing her into a house of prostitu

Uncle Philip Harris is dead! He
passed away jK-ncefully and calmly on
the 10th at U o'clock r. m. of pneu
monia. His two sons, Lafe and Steven,
were with him during his short illness.
Mr. Har.is was born in Deerficld town
ship, CumWrlaud county, New Jersey,
on the 21st day of January, 1S03, and
was married to the wife who survives
him, at the nge of nineteen and she was
seventeen. He left New Jersey and
settled in Ohio, afterward removed to
Msssouii, ami came to Oregon in 1845,
when the whole pat ty came near starving
to dentil on the route. The pioneer
part' who came to ' Ircgoii in those days
hav m interesting history which can
not be written in this obituary. Uncle
Philip lived in Washington county, Ore
gon, until about twelve years ago, when
he crossed the montains for Eastern
Washington and has since resided on the
margin of Granite lake, four miles north
of Cheney. This remarkable man was
an exception to the general mass of man
kind; he was a philosopher and com
muned with nature preferring lienuties
of the char lake, the green ward, the
toweriog mountains or the natural
environments of life to the gilded
church spire, the cushioned pew or
fashionable society. He loved God and
eschewed evil. No man bore with the
afflictions of inanking with more calm
ness or charity than did the subject of
this sketch. Nothing rutl'el his temper
or aroused his anger, always kind, pre
suasive and lovable in his dijositirn,
always ready with a big heart and C ei
hands to aid a struggling fellow man
and encourage the young to good works.
He was strictly t pioneer and spent all
the days of his manhood on the frontier.
If he had an enemy on earth when he
left it, he was not aware of it. He was
a consistent member of the Baptist
I church, and done good all the days of
Ins life. Truly a remarkable man has
gone, full of years and good works
If I
the world was full of such men, wars
would cease, and the door of court
houses and jails be closed forever.

On last Friday evening Charley
Vaughn, a young man in the employ oj
H. D. Bryant, who lives near Gaston,
was attacked by a Jersey bull owned bj
Mr. Bryant, and narrowly escaped with
his life. Mr. Vaughn was doing the
chores when he was attacked by the
animal, which soon had him down and
but for the timely assistance of Mr.
Bryant would doubtless never have
escaped alive. As it was, he was gored
in a frightful manner. This animal,
which practically runs at large, is the
terror of the community, having chased
several parties heretofore. Such a brute
should be kept securely tied, and not
allowed to run where public travelers
are liable to 1m attacked by it. A "word
to the wise" should be sufficient.
