City and County Official Paper.

JJDITOHIAI. NOTHS.
A Phniim:to.v lawyer has the words
"Temple of Justice" painted over his
office door, lie hasn't been mobbed
yet.
"Wj: understand that .Air. F. C. Slid
dlcton will havcjhnrgo olourcsleenied
contemporary ncross the street, here
after. Uki'Jikskntativk Joi: is trying to
justify his actions in tlio legislature by
u column and a half article in the
county papers. We have- not taken
the trouble to rend it.
Tins servants sent by the people of
Union county to represent them in
the legislature nrc now facetiously
nlludcd to as "our misreprcsentatives,"
which is rather suggestive and not al
together inappropriate.
Tin: Secretary of the Interior has
appointed George P. Litchfield, of
Salcin, Or., special Indian agent for
the Pacific coast. This position pays
$2000 per annum, with traveling ex
penses, and $3 per day for subsistence
while traveling. There aro but six of
these agents in the country.
"Vi: have beon fortunalo enough to
securo the services of an experienced
newspaper writer whoso trenchant pen
will keep our readers posted each week
on mining developments, and tho out
look of tho mineral regions of Union
county. An interesting letter from
him appears in this issue, and will ap
pear each week hereafter.
IhiOTiiKit Irwin, who took editorial
charge of tho Wliangdoodle a few
months ago amid such a nourish of
trumpets and tho complacent procla
mation that "tho fittest will survive,"
has run his course. Metaphorically
speaking, ho has dropped his tail be
tween his legs and skulked out of tho
journalistic- arena. Ho has lasted
fully as long as wo thought ho woidd
after rending his first issuo. Vnle,
brother Irwin.
Is tho land grants made to the new
states it is provided that all school
lands shall sell for .$10 an acre. In
Oregon school lands havo not brought
overhand often less. If tho lands
this stale owned had been kept and
sold for what they are actually worth,
tho irreducible school fund would fig
ure up millions where now wo havo
thousands. School lands could havo
averaged .flO an aero easily, and there
was no need to sell beforo tlioy would
bring that much. Why is it that pub
lic intorests aro trilled with while each
individual interest is made tho most
of? School lands havo been bought
and sold on speculation, and those
who havo bought generally havo real
ized fully $10 if thoy cared to sell.
Tim La Grande Journal suggests a
mooting of tho business men of Maker
City, Union La Grande and Pendleton
to try to securo reduced freight rates
to these points from the East, so as to
put thorn on an equality with Port
laud. This is a good idea, and under
other oirouiiiBtances tho Union pooplo
would stand in, but just now wo havo
.11 scheme that beats it all to pieces.
Wo aro trying to raise a subsidy to in
duce a man by tho name of Hunt to
build a branch of tho Northern Pacific
in here. If wo Buceecd, it will not bo
necessary for tho business men of tho
towns above mentioned to combine in
order to got redross from a thioving
railroad company, .Itihtico will bo
accorded them without tho asking.
Tim La Grande Journal propounds
u very pertinont question as follows:
What Is I.a (Iratiilonohig to do this sum
mer In thu way of building improvements?
During tho winter everyhoilv was talking
of erfillng brick hiuitu-hs blocks, Now,
nobody Mieuis to know unythlng about any
building whatever.
Wo would like very much to answer
tho question, but in view of tho fact
that La Grande has been going to
havo olectrio lights, and still gropes in
darkness without o much as a coal !
oil lamp; aud that it has beon going
to have street cars, a big hotel, u pub
lic hall, a (louring mill, etc., etc., etc.,
and nono of them havo luutcriiklUed
yet; and it hnH boon going to movo
tho Hot Lake into town, but hasn't
yet, wliilo tho populace go unwashed,
wo can hardly tell what La Grande is
going to do, and will only say in m
spouse to tho question : Damfweknow.

THE WAV IT J.OOKH.
The La Grande Gatettr Ny
Sincc the Scout has assumed Jin- )! of
doing tho worrying for La (irand- lucan-i'
of the luiildingof it branch roml M Wallowa
it might )(ssll)l derive some ix'iieHt in
trying to dfocover what uorpe cfl'iet Mioh
a road would have upon La Grnmlo than
tho building of tho Hunt mint would hare
upon Union. If the Wallowa road will up
the life nut of La (irande what will futon
have left after the Nandriilpv and the Cove
have also had a cap picrt'.'
We will just, pay that in our opinion
the building of a branch from La
Grande to Wallowa means the concen
tration of capital and trade at gome
natural cenlor in that section of tho
county, probably Summerville, and
that La Grande, situated as it is in an
inaccessible nook of the valley, near
tho county line, must certainly stiller.
Tho building of the Hunt road
through the county by way of the
town of Union, which ia situated in
the exact center of the county, means
the establishment of woolen mills and
manufactories of every kind that the
country is now in need of, on the-magnificent
water powers of this place.
It means the location of the county
scat at this place for all timo to come.
It mcaus a united county extending
from the the rich mineral deposits in
the Pine creek mountains on tho south
to endless forests of timber that covor
the llltio mountains on the north. It
means prosperity to tho entire county
and to tho town of Union because of
its central location, and other advan
tages. That is tho way wc havo it figured
out. A very short timo will demon
strate whether we are right or wrong.
Wo sincerely hope our predictions will
provo truo in every particular.

Tho farmer must bo protected
whether ho fancies it or not, and to en
sure him the benefits of protection the
binding-twino trust was dovizod. It
is organized for tho philanthropic pur
pose of controlling tho supply and
price of an indispensablo article. The
vast wheat fields of tho west consume
in harvest timo enormous quantities
of this twino on which tho present
tariff exacts a duty of thirty-firo per
cent ad valorem, and from which tho
Mills bill proposed to take oil' ton per
cent. Tho twino men, encouraged by
tho unconscionable incrcaso of duty
proposed by tho senate bill, havo com
bined to tako the fullest advantage
of tho opportunity wlTich will be af
forded them should tho senate bill be
come u law in tho next congress.
According to tho republican method
of protecting tho farmer, the duty is
to bo forty per cent ad valorem on tho
most expensive kind of twine, and
about two hundred on tho least ex
pensive. Tho manipulations of tho
trust may send tho prico of binding
twino up, next summer, to a figure
that will place it out of tho reach of
tho farmer, unless he is prepared to
mortgage his harvest to obtain a sup
ply of an article that is iiulispen sable
for his 'work.
A IV ISM I.AAV.
Tho wisest law pasted by any legis
lative assembly for a long timo is tho
one passed by the Maino legislature
pioviding fieo text books for pupils in
tho public schools. Tho public schools
are tho bulwarks of tho nation, and in
them every child should be allowed
the opportunity of obtaining a com
mon school education. To bring
about this greatest and most desirable
of all needed results, tho free school is
not sufficient without free books. Ilo
cause a child is tho olhpring of poor
parents is not its fault, and ho whould
not sutler tho penalty by being com
pelled to grow up in ignorance.
Without free schools .and free hooka,
many an otherwise bright child is not
atlbrded an opportunity for tho devel
opment of the mental aud moral and
social faculties, because its father was
a worthless, drunken vagabond. A
child is not responsible for its parent
age. Wo hope tho timo will come
when every state anil territory in tho
Union will havo adopted tho free mo
of school books, and oompulxory ut
tuudauco at school of all children bo
low a specified age, and, following this
wo would havo a national law making
ability to road and write a nouoaaury
requisite to the use of the ballot. "In
a Republic ignorance is a crime."

We would as soon think of welcom
ing to our office any renegade and liar
in the country as that newsimppr
monstrosity known as tho Portland
Orrrjonian, and would havo as much
confidence in what we learned from
one as the other. Occasionally, how
ever, our exchanges copy something
fiom its columns that amuses us as
showing the pompous ignorance of the
tub of egotism and entrails that docs
duly a its editor. In a recent edito
rial wherein he exhibits his venom
toward many honorable northern gen
eralB who contributed to tho Texas
home for confederate soldiors, he works
in his knowledge of Shakespeare in
this way:
.lark Faint aft" was a cowardly soldier, but
he spoke the truth when he nalil he "served
bravely who came off tho broach with his
pike bent bravely." and there lie thousands
of bravo Union veterans who did stout nol
dlmldp, came oil' tho broach with their
pikes bravely bent and yet without a seri
ou wound.
Tho ridiculousness of this) fcimile
dawns painfully on all readers convci
sant with Shakespeare, and to those
who aro not it will bo a source of
amusement to rend the fourth scene of
King Henry IV, wherein the brave
PalstaiTnnd Doll Tear-Sheet hold con
verse with each other. If the tub of
o and e inpicstion would "come oil"'
with his "pike" disabled, it would be a
decided relief to a great many people.
