Out to every h!ise I one

We set up at night t nd read
When we'd or'er been in bed.

Knocked out every country stoie

I bile at i: Jim did too.
Jim's my neighbor Vros tlie way
Best man ever woiked in hay,
Jest let him top off a st rk
Shed ram like a turtle's back.
Plesnre j3St to see h:m work,
Never knew ol Jim to shirk :
Singa a scythe like it was play
Love to watch him n the wav.
Well, we lii e a pair of fools,
Seat off -got some havi'n tools.
Jim co" l a-n --98 and a plo,

Drate the thing, it was so light
Used the thing for torch at night;
Tbiow'd the darn thing in the yard
Use it now for renderm' lard.
"Fo-e Jim used the plow an hour
Foun 1 tnat it wo ildn't scour:
Tried his harness broke a tug
dSoug-t for solace in his jug
In the cooler all that night
Jim reflected on his plight;
la the morning Richard Stout,
Hardware merchaot, bailed him out.
Jim said after that he'd stick
Close asbaik to good ol' Dick.
Since he left fhe Tossum jail
Says he won't buy goods bv mail,

Couldn't use our shoats nor oats.

When they needed truck to eat
Boagbt it down on Water street

Anything but cxth to use.
I sat down and wrjte 'em then:

opening of tbe Columbia, irriga
tion, and io fact all of our interests
point out the logical conclusion
that we should work together."
Dr. N. G. Unlock, of Walla
Walla, tbe veteran advocate of an
open river, was tbe next apeaker.
Dr. BlaluOk'ri address was both in
structive and able.
He said that while be was not a
citizen of Oregoo, he was a near
neighbor, and that our interests
were onp. That he was here on an
important mission.
"Washingtou has not ch ne her
part iu the development of this
grea- pit of tbe northwest in the
past," said the speaker.
"The cau-e was from the lack of
a proper KaJer. The state is now
waking up to her interests and re
SDonsibilites. I tefer to an oppu
river. Oregon hns given 300,000
and I am ashamed that Washing
tou has not given a cent," con
tinued the speaker.
The doctor explained that the
reason that Washington had ndt
given anything was on account of
the constitution, but that now
Washington would do her part as
neighbors and citizens. Tbat a
bill would be passed appropriating
$300,000 for the Columbia river.
Next year with three Bteam-
boats on the upper river, while the
business might not be great, he
expected regulation of freight rates
from the ocean to the Inland em
pire. He said that we were pay
ing a larger tribute to the rail
roads than any other state io the
Union. With an open river we
will have the paraphernalia to regu
late freight rates. As an object
lesson tbe doctor quoted rates
between Tbe Dalles and Portland
He said that he expected to live to
see the time when the rate on wheat
would be only one halt what it is
now. Hut we mast unit) to ac
complish results.
Prof. Lyman, of Walla Walla
was the npxt speaker. By com
parison of statistics, the speaker
put in a strong plea for an open
river and tbe benefits to come
from united efforts on the part of
Oregon and Washington.
Rev. Allen, of Irrigon deliverod
a bright and interesting talk on
irrigation. Rev. Allen's loyalty
for hts district was greatly admir
ed. Rev. Allen said that be would
l
prefer to take the water out of the
channel of the Columbia and put
it on the sands, nnd it would he
only a short time nntill we would
have 50,000 people and open river.
TheJ speeches were interspers ed
with splendid music by the Eagles
band.
After the speeches, Secretary
Willis, of the Umatilla League,
stated that tbe most important
part of the meeting was to come.
Mr. Willis stated that tbe time
had arrived for the merging of the
two county leagues which was the
main intent of tbe mee ing. Mr.
Willis made a good business talk.
G. W. Phelps moved thht a com
mittee of five be appointed on
resolutions. After the atpoint
nient of the committee by the
chair, the meeting adjourned to
meet the next day at the com
mercial club rooms and unite the

The Modesty of Women
Naturally makes them shrink from the
Indelicate questions, the obnoxious ex
aminations, and unpleasant local treat
ments, which some physicians consider
essential in the treatment of diseases of
women. Yet, if help can bo had, It Is
better to submit to this ordeal than let
the disease grow and spread. The trouble
Is that so often the woman undergoes all
the annoyance and shame for nothing.
Thousands of women who have been
cured by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion write In appreciation of the euro
which dispenses with the examinations
and local treatments. There is no other
medicine so sure and safe for delicate
women as "Favorite Prescription." It
cures debilitating drains, irregularity and
female weakness. It always helps. It
almost always cures. It is strictly non
alcoholic, non - secret, all its ingredients
being printed on its bottle-wrapper; con
tains no deleterious or habit-forming
drugs, and every native medicinal root
entering into its composition has the full
endorsement of those most eminent in the
several schools of medical practice. Some
of these numerous and strongest of pro
fessional endorsements of its ingredients,
will bo found in a pamphlet wrapped
around the bottle, also in a booklet mailed
free on request, by Dr. R. V. Pierce, l
Buffalo, N. Y. Theso professional en
dorsements should have far more weight
than any amount of the ordinary lay, or
non-professional testimonials.
The most intelligent women now-a-days
insist on knowing what they take as med
icine Instead of opening their mouths like
a lot of young birds and gulping down
whatever is offered them. "Favorite Pre
scription " is Of KNOWS COMPOSITION. It
makes weak women strong and sick
women well.
. Dr. Pierce's Medical Adviser Is sentrcr
on receipt of stamps to pav expense of
mailing oniy. Send to Dr. It. . Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y 21 one-cent stamps for paper-covered,
or 31 stamps for cloth-bound.
If sick consult the Doctor, free of charge
by letter. All such communications are
held sacredly confidential.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets Invigorate
and regulate stomach, liver and bowels.
