That the Pacific Northwest need not take second place with any other section of the country in feeding and fattening livestock is shown by the recent killing of a 2100-pound steer at the Portland stockyards that dressed but 72.14 per cent. So far as known this is the best percentage ever shown anywhere. The much boasted corn belt is surpassed. The champion steer at the recent national livestock show in Chicago dressed 66.2 per cent. Christmas was duly and truly observed by all resi­ dents of Dallas, and was an occasion of good cheer and festivities from which there were hardly any exceptions. The churches all held exercises and had trees on Christ­ mas eve, and all were made exquisitely happy, especial­ ly the younger ones, by receiving gifts appropriate to the season. Many preferred their trees at home, by their own fireside, and family reunions were numerous. The giving spirit was uppermost in the hearts of all, and for once in the year all animosities and jealousies were buried in the giving and receiving of mutual con­ gratulation upon the birth of a Christ child. OUR POLK COUNTY PROPHET. From Washington comes the weighty news that Ralph Williams, national Republican committeeman from Ore­ gon, says Mr. Taft will be nominated and triumphantly elected. And it’s our Ralph, too, our Ralph who grew to be a statesman amid the clover fields and tall grass of Polk county. What a joy that in presidential politics it is an Oregonfan who knows who’s who and what’s what. If the gentleman from old Polk tells them at Washington that it is to be Taft, it must be Taft and there is not much use to hold a convention. Nor to hold an election. It is all over but the inauguration. La Follette’s boom is punctured, Sagamore Hill is a hole n the ground. Ih e colonel has absquatulated, and the progressives are laid away in cold storage. Pinchot doesn’t know whether to turn around or go ahead, and the Democratic Mule has swallowed a gallon of whiskey and kicked itself to death. All this is what is meant in what our Ralph says to the big men at Washington. It is what has ccme to pass because Polk county rose up on her hind legs and produced a real statesman. But, let’s see. Wasn’t it our Ralph that helped to pull off a great assembly movement in Oregon ?—Portland Jour­ nal. THE NEW YE&R. Looking back over our files we find the following per­ tinent editorial in the issue of December 31, 1880, and reprint it, standing fast for all the promises made by the editor of 31 years ago: “ Today the book closes for 1880, and with the next morning’s dawn the year 1881 will have entered upon its course. It is well at this time to take a retrospective glance at the past, and discover if we can what good works we could have accomplished if we had only made proper use of the means within our power. Every per­ son who is placed upon the earth has his mission to ac­ complish, and by his acts he is judged. Time is ever fleeting, and the many opportunities it presents must be embraced if we wish to keep pace with the world we live in. That the era for hard, earnest work has dawn­ ed with the advent of the present century none can de­ ny, and if we ffrish to be “no sluggard in the race of life” we must fully realize that there is no success with­ out labor. Have you, kind patrons, accomplished the work you intended in the year about to close? Have you made use of the opportunities presented to you and profited by them? If not, now make a new resolve. Promise that for the coming year you will so comport yourselves that when the Itemizer again wishes you “A Happy New Year” it will greet you with good promises well and faithfully observed. The Itemizer. in greeting its numerous patrons, while not boasting of its excellence as a live local paper, would state that the premises it made a year ago have been faithfully kept and that time and labor have been equal­ ly devoted to make our paper a welcome guest to the family and the fireside. Encouraged by the support re­ ceived in the past, we enter upon the new year with renewed hope and shall do all that lies in our power to merit a continuation of the support now so generously extended to us. We wish our readers a Happy New Year.” When You Think 4 ÌS H basketball Eczema Began When Three Weeks team, of Dallas, gained another Old.
