In H'ltfltirr. known upon Friday, ArRn. 26, 1901. The recent rains are hailed with much gratification anions fanners. The crops are all promising ami grass is now abundant. Cottage Grove is overlooked by the president and party on his Pa cific coast trip, but this is no reas on why we should overlook the preadeat. Why not make some In nuother column uiny be found the financial standing of the city of Cottage Grove, a table of the same having been handed to the Nugget through the courtesy of the Council. It shows the city 7(5.63 in debt when all uncollected tajces shall have been paid in. Thi indebtedness has accrued in the last war. and while it is not much still it is just that much oia burden to bear, and it is to be hoped that a 'sinking fund .may soon le provided, whereby the city may pay it off to gether with othr indebtedness as may from time to time accrue. This indebtedness is the result of street improvement, and it is quite easy to find people hereabouts who arc sure they could handle the city's affairs to a much better advantage I Now all Tosellicr ! kind of demonstration as the presi riearift train na&s through on thej It is quite probable that they could MwnMWg .of liy ? We can at lefct five off a few sticks of giant pwwr, ths letting them know t5t w are not only acquainted especially if they had tlfe result o the list year's expense account to go by. It is more than likely that the same council could also profit with :ke & that we had an eice-J by the experience of the past tkm bst fell but that tbe news of) twelve months and come out ahead the oresident's Pacific coast trio has! instead of behind. It is not an preceded him. I be London Spectator stves Uncle Sam warnine to be on the lookout for the combining of Ku ropean forces with the view of over powering this couutrv. both as a commercial and political power. Well, Uncle Sam no doubt appre dates the good office of the Specta tor, but doesn't feel the least un easy about the proposed combina tion. It would be amusing to see that aggregation of European tnili. tarism attempt a lauding in the United Stales. It would be an at tempt and that is all; and when the smoke cleared away there wouldn't be enough whole European soldiers left to spread the news that there had been a fight. agreeaoie ining to turn a city in Ivolved even to the amount of S?5.63; but we should all bechari table in our criticisms especially when we remember that the burden of carrying the financial affairs o any city is not an easy one, and is always done gratuitously. There aie two things we may congratu late ourselves upon, first, that we have no greater indebtedness; sec ond, that we will have two as good streets as are to be found in the Wil lamette valley. MARRIED. The Portland Evening Telegram is highly exercised as witness its comments upon the petition and signers thereof, praying for the par don of Frank Patterson the railroad hoy who was sentenced to a term of years from the Douglas county circuit court, for the crime of rape upon the person of a young girl. The Telegram is very aggressive in its scathing criticisms of those who differ in opinion with Portland's evening paper, to the extent that they sign a petition asking for the pardon of the boy. The Tele gram should remember that it is only a newspaper, of the very ordi nary type, und that the people have as good a right to express their ideas by humbly signing a petition for pardon as the Telegram has to brow-beat and slander them for so doing. It bitterly attacks the "fool women" who have signed the petition. Were it not for this stroke of inconsistency the article should go unnoticed, but when tbe Telegram gets so low tbat it fails to recognize tbe sympathetic nature of the "mothers of men," it should be rebuked and with severity, and a lack of future patronage would probably awaken the Telegram to the realization of the enormity of its criticism. As to Patterson he is without doubt guilty; but there is much in his favor. Evidence deduced, goes to show that at least one other was equally guilty, and tbe fact of the matter is. through .circumstances he is suffering the penalty that should have fallen to another, his senior, and a man who it is alleged influenced the boy in the matter of committing the das tardly crime: The other was proven guilty, in the mind of any fair minded man who heard pre liminary and trial evidence. Now, this being the case, the fool women and many "fool men," likewise, believe that if the older one and the one whose examination brought out the most damaging testimony is to go free and unpunished, it is fair that the boy, whose incarcer ation is breaking the heart of an nged parent, should be liberated also. Mr. Curtis Veatch and Miss Lena Stockwell were married Wednesday, April iS. at the home of the bride's uncle, Mr. R. D. Hawley, of Crcs well. The parlors were decorated with sword fern, wild lillies and ivy and with drawn curtains and lighted lamps presented a very pretty ap pearance. At 11 o'clock Miss Anna Howe began the wedding march. The bride and groom en tered led by little Berta Hawley, strewing violets, and followed by the maids and gentlemen of honor, Miss Meade Sco:t, Mr. Eugene Stockwell, Miss Virgie Shaub and Mr. George Smith. Rev. Samuel Snyder, of the M. E. church, per formed the ceremony. After con gratulations the company sat down to a toothsome luncheon, served by Mrs. Hawley assisted by Miss Edith Tozierand Miss Dora Veatch Miss Stockwell stands very high in social circles and Mr. Veatch is a promiuent young man of this city. The Nugget extends congratula tions and also thanks Mrs. R. D Hawley for a box of delicious wedding cake.
