and we were also favored with singing.
Pies and cakes were passed around in
abundance by the charming hostess, and
after partaking of the bounteous supply
and indulging in a few more games until
the time-piece warned us that midnight
was drawing near, we departed tor
our resective home, to dream it all over,

All Unprejudiced Democrat,
Bro. Wheeler, of the Corvallis Demo
crat, notwithstanding he ailTeis with
Senator Mitchell politically, is honest
aud gives him credit for what he has
done for tho State. He says:
We notice an article in the Roseburg
Wester Star iu which Senator J. II.
Mitchell is severely censured for his
introduction of a bill into Congress 2"ro
posiug to appropriate money for the
purpose of constructing a break-water
at Capo Foul weather, in this county,
and characterizes this movement on the
part of Senator Mitchell as an election
eering scheme, aud consequently de
nounces the entire proposition. As to
Senator Mitchell's motives in the mat
ter other than a needed improvement
for the accommodation of the people,
we know not. Such a thing may be
that it is only an electioneering dodge
011 the part of the Senator, but we have
not tho foresight of the Star to see just
what his personal aims are. Lut we do
know that Senator Mitchell has done a
great deal for Oregon, and from the
past we judge tho future.
We want it distinctly understood that
we are no friend of Senator Mitchell,
politically, but when a mau has done a
good act givo him credit for it. Had
the proposed point for tho break-water
been at Port Orford, aa suggested by
the Star as a better place for such an
improvement, that paper would not have
said a single word. Ve hope to see the
proposed break-water constructed, and
are willing to give credit to Mitchell, or
anyone else who successfully carry, or
cause the measure to be carried through,
and the appropriation obtained.
