WHY THE KD1TOK SWOKH. With a terrible cold In his head, And his eyelids heavy and Bore, The editor sat in a broken chair And bitterly, earnestly swore. A youth had dropped in with a poem, A man was there with a dun, And a chap had entered to tell him How the paper ought to be run. An irate subscriber had told him That his sheet wasn't fit to be read, While another had carefully promised To punch the editor's head. The foreman was yelling for copy, And the wind blew in at the door. And this with a few other reasons, Is why the editor swore. And the angel who took it to heaven Recorded this verdict there: "The Jury find in the present case 'Twas a justifiable swear." Unknown. :- WHAT'S A KIBb. " ' ' " ' Something rather dangerous, Something rather nice, Something rather wicked Though it can't be called a vice. Some think it naughty, Others think it wrong, All agree it's jolly, Though it don't last long. When lips of lovers meet in bliss, The pleasing act is termed a "kiss But when the pair have wed each other The vapid thing is called a "bother." I'm just two and two, I'm warm, I'm cold, And the parent of numbers that cannot be told, I am lawful unlawful a duty, a fault. I am often sold dear good for nothing when bought. An extraordinary boon, and a matter of course, And yield with pleasure when taken by force. Unknown. EDITOEIAL. Now a crank has appeared in New York and expressed his intention to elope with and marry Miss Qould. Either the rioh men must dispose of their fortunes or the polioe of the oountry will be oompelled to make a systematic orank hunt in all the large oities. A warrant has been issued for the ar rest of A. C. Edwards, Jr., aud Franklin Eipg, for publishing and circulating ob scene literature through the medium of the Spokane Regulator, They were arraigned on three separate charges printing of obscene literature, its circu lation, and the production of indecent piotures in the same, Edwards was ar rested aud placed under $500 bonds to appear before the munioipal oourt. The polioe have not yet found King, though tbey are making a determined search for him, A woman whose husband had squan dered $15 over night in a saloon in New York City went to the place in the morn ing and asked to get the money back. Of course she did not get it, but she took from a basket which sbe bad on her arm two plain homely-looking brioks and, with them as a weapon, she devoted her best fighting energies to demolish about 8500 wortb of out glass and French mir rors. The law would say that this spite ful little woman should be punished, but where is the jury to be found that would oonvict her? It does not exist. Not even if selected from the saloons of New York itself. 4U HELPLESS. bottles of ST. JACOBS OIL cured me. No return in 5 years. FRANCIS MAURER. "All RIGHT 1 ST.

In summer cattle should be salted twioe a week; in winter only ouce. To each steer about a handful will be suffi cient, but the best plan is to have rock salt where they oan liok it at will. Feeding is like aij, otner investment of money-should pay the proper interest on the oapital used. If the animal fed cannot pay back a fair interest on the oost of the food, both ahoiild be applied to more remunerative uses the capital transferred and the animal ponverted in to cash to be profitably apllied. Nearly every farmer in Amerioa and elsewhere loses the interest of the money invested in unprofitable live stock. SHERP AND WOOrOTES. Turnips make a goiN-'.d for sheep They are easily mised and oheap. Good feed and oare tell more on the sheep than among any other class of stock. The wool grower has to oompete not only with bis neighbors, but with all the world beside; the mutton grower meets only his fellow citizens as competitors. Merinos are the best breed of sheee p to run in large flocks, Even with the low price of wool, with the inore'ase and good they will do Hie soil, they oan be grown with profit by the average farmer. From the Pendlti)-fvibuna we learn that Mayor Coiioy. had', over 100 head'of oattle -.iC-. iiV'tn him during year. 'i4 The Cheyenne Stoc.1t Journal says: There is a limit to which' any range can be profitably stocked. If we go beyond this limit it will not only be adeteriment to the permanenoy of the range, will be detrimental to the stock as well. - An unknown disease has attaoked horses in Kittitaas county, aud threatens to become epidemic. Farmers and stook men are helpless as nothing like it has ever appeared before in that section and no remedy is known for it. It promises to work muoh hardship on the settlers in that section. BOB FIltE PHO'PECTION. The following plans and specifications for three cisterns to be situated on Main street, are those prepared by theoommit tee on fire and water,composed of Messrs, Morgan, Garrigues and Gilliam, and are a copy of those to be presented at the next meeting of the oounoil : "The said cisterns to be built on Main street at the crossing or intersection of May, Willow and Center streets. Said cisterns to be made of fir lumber; bed pieces to be 6x6; floor 4x12 both top and bottom; sides to be made of 2x4 spiked together; same to be tarred inside and out. Said cisterns to be not less than twelve feet (12) square, aud to hold not less than eleven thousand (11,000) gal loos of water. The covers of said cis terns to be not less than sixteen feet (16) square; bed pieces to be 6x6; said bed pieces not to be over sixteen inches (16) apart, both top aud bottom. "Also pipes to be laid from the arte sian well to the oistero at Main and May streets, and to connect all the cisterns together. Also waste pipe from oistern at Main and Ceuter.running on Center to the oreek. Said pipe to be quick gal vanized wrought pipe, and to be laid eighteen (18) inches in the ground. The versatility of the grip is not the least imposing feature of that malady An Indiana man who had it is now as- bold as a pool-ball. His mustache dropped into a dinner-plate one day when he was oonvalesoing and then his eyebrows and bis hair fell out. Now his own looking glasB would not kDow him. Apparently the only things the grip is inoapable of doing for a man are to call a doctor and pay his bills. The editor made a trip down the main line Saturday, returning luesday.

The completion of the Masonic temple at this place has been deferred until spring on account of no lumber. Snuw on the Greenhorn is reported to be seven feet on a level. In many places it is drifted to the depth of fifty feet. L. K. Powell is being instructed in the mysteries of typography, and other labors of the devil, in the Eagle oflice, P. W. McRoberts, of this city, has been appointed by Sheriff Creeap, aB deputy sheriff and tax oolleotor for Northern Grant county. Os. Birch came down from the Green horn camp Tuesday and leaves this week for the Willamette valley, where he will spend the winter. C. Dustin aud Cbas. Robinson took their departure Tuesday for the Susan ville mines, where they expect to remain this winter. The boys have some prop erty in that oamp that promises to be quite valuable. C. T. Williams, of Fox valley, was in to see us Monday. Mr. Williams is still suffering from rheumatism which he thinks is no less than the result of paralytic stroke from wbioh he suffered ten or twelve years ago. Through a trienu or the Jfiogle, now mining in Montana, near Butte City, we have the promise of specimens of ore from the many mines in that gieat min eral belt. Our mineral cabinet is the largest in the interior and is growing rapidly. James Murphy and Marshal Adkins were in the city from Fox Tuesday, pay ing the Eagle sanctum their respects be fore returning. Mr. Adkins oame to the oountry about three months ago from Mifsouri, locating in Fox valley. He is well pleased with this oountry and will probably make this his permanent home. HON. ,J. L. MOltROW. Most of the Pnget Sound pioneers well remember Jaok Morrow, as he was fa miliarly oalled, who used to live at Turn water and Olympia when those towns first were born. He took an active part iu everything, and served as lieutenant all through the Indian war of '05 0. His old friends will regret to bear that he is having to endure this winter a life-share of physical torture. Beginning with what was supposed to be inflammatory rheumatism, Mr. Morrow's son tenderly took him to medicinal springs, but find ing no relief there, be was taken to St. Vincent's hospital in Portland, where he can have the very best sargioal skill. It was fonnd necessary to cut a 6 inch strip from one of his legs, lu order to scrape away diseased bone. At last accounts Mr. Morrow was suffering severely, but was cheerfully hoping for the beat Fnyallup Cominere. LONE KOCK LOCALS. Some snow, plenty of feed, fat stock and happy people this winter. Book agents and ooyotes are quite nu merous, and many are the victims. The Hayes boys, of your place, are feeding a fine band of sheep above town on the Smith ranch. Irvie Bennett dropped in from the Perry Oiler ranch this week to see how things were running. He reports the Si las Brown sheep, of whioh he has charge, in fine condition. Dan Rinehart, the mail oontraotor, has moved his family from Condon, and is now a resident of our village. Dan is energetic and will make his Heppner Lone Rook route a popular one. Our sohool house will soon be supplied with a set of new and elegant seats of the lateht patent. By the way, Lone Rook is having one of the best schools ever taught here. Prof Miller is the man we long have sought. Joseph Crawford returned from the Spokane oountry last week, where he has been all Summer selling mules and horses. Joe is a rustler, and if some of the fair maids do not look sharp they may be asked some pointed questions ere the robins nest again. Nate Scott, the veteran son of Emer ald's Isle, reports that his "bloody" sheep are so independent they turn up their nose st hay, preferring to rustle iu the brush and breaks of Lone Rook oreek. Nate is oredited with having the plump est baud of sheep in Gilliam oounty. Our siok list is alarming at this date, Jan, 10. Dora, the eleven-year-old daughter of Johu Madden, Dot War moth, two children of Cbas. Cason, Dot, daughter of E. Coppner, a little child of Sarah HosS, two children of W. C, Brown, youngest boy of J. B. Goff, our P. M., Morgan Ward, Prof. Miller, our teacher, and several others, are down with what is pronounced the grip. Jno, M. Brown, one of our most reli able and enterprising oitizens and wool growers, is earnestly advocating the ne- oessity of a passable thoroughfare be tween here and your city, whioh is now the natural metropolis of this section of the country, and is only deprived of the entire business of it by about one mile of road. This sounds redioulous, and es pecially so when the expenditure of not more than $1,000 would make us but few hours of pleasant driving to reaoh our natural shipping -point. M" Tirown informs, us that he haa )MuglM. .0 him by reliable citizens of Geppner the sum of 8500 if our people will meet them with a like amount in labor or coin, and we feel assured, beyond a doubt, that this can be done readily. Let our people call a meeting at once, and start the bull rolling, and ere our big wool crop is shorn from the baoks of our thousands of sheep this spring, have a respeotable aud desirable outlet to Heppner, our nearest railroad point by thirty odd miles Wm. Hendricks contemplates the ereo- tionofalarge town hall and business room in our village the ooming spring, A loug needed want, this, and a good in vestment. R. M. J. JOHN DAY. From the Sentinel. There are about 1000 bushels of wheat remaining at the flouring mill whioh will be ground out at the first opportunity. The friends of Dr. Fell are glad to see that he bus entirely recovered from his reoent illness. He will now attend you and deal out nauseous drugs as of yore. The Duncan boys returned Thursday evening from their trip to Long Creek with a bunch of cattle. The boys report having bad a hard trip of it and lots of snow. Sometimes their cattle would run into snow so deep that they would have to be helped out. They report hav ing passed thorough one of the worBt snow storms at Fox they ever experienc ed in Eastern Oregon. It is considerable of a disappointment to the residents of Bear valley not to have the stage running out there after the oontraot was let. But what else THE SAN FRANCISCO BOARD of HEALTH. We, the members of the Board of Health of the City and County of San Francisco, Cordially approve and recommend the Royal Baking Powder.

The road over which this line was to run is almost impassble, and this fact was well known to the oontraotor when he made his bid. The fact of tha oontract being sub-let does not exoner ate the original contractor, and he should be compelled to fulfill his contraot. Monday night the newly elected offloerg of Vernon Lodge were installed by district deputy W. W. Wood. The Knights were out in full force and all were deeply in terested. The following is the roll of of ficers for the ensuing term : G. W. Dart, P. O. ; W. H. Kelly, C. C; Geo. H. Cat tanaoh, V. C; N. R. Maxoy. P.; F. I.

The post office department has issued orders that hereafter circulars having , anything printed on them with a rubber stamp will have to be paid for as first class matter., The order is passed on the principle that the stamp is nothing more nor less than writing, from the fact that it is used as a pen and the legends it produces are as indelible as those of a pea. 1 Isaac Knighten was in the oity Mon day on land business. R. W. Turner, one of our Sand Hallow friends called Saturday. Billy Saling haB been having a tussle with la grippe, but is again able to be out. W. W. Brannon and O. O.

If you are not sure you are paid in advance, this means you. Come now, don't be bashful. T. K. Roberts, of Sand Hollow, was in the city Saturday. He hailed from Sandusky, Ohio, though in the past few years he has taken in the greater part of the West. The finest New Year's gift we have heard of being presented, was a ten pound boy. Mr. and Mrs. N. J. Hale being the recipients. Here's congratula tions, Nat. G. H.

Spencer, ex-postmaster of Hard man, camo down to the oity Saturday eye returning Monday, Mr. Spencer is now interested in the opal mines over on Peters Butte. Presumably from tho inclemency of the weather, the dance at the opera ball last Saturday evening was not very well attended, though those present roport a fairly enjoyable time.
