When President McMnlcy was making his roseate prosperity speech in .San Franci.'co, at the launching of the battleship Ohio, a workman jumped up in the rear of the hall and shouted, "Wait till the day af ter tomorrow." On the day 'after- tpmorroiv four thousand machinists were on a strike 111 the city for a little more prosperity. Guard. The Guard, in all its years of publishing never printed an article more commendable to a republican administration than the above. Al ways in times of prosperity strikes accur. Men getting good wages naturally want more. They do not strike because they are not making a living but because they desire more luxuries. In many instances they go out asking for a reduction in the number of hours of work, for no other reason than they desire more leisure to enjoy the wages they cam, and contend that they do not have to work so many hours to earn a living. The Guard should let memory revert some five or six years back, recalling the days of the Coxey armies and the honest men of a noble country who were begging from door, to door for work at any price, from board up to 75 cents a day, not daring to expect more. Should remember the titn six years ago when craftsmen of every description were working for $1.25 to $1.75 cents per day and did not dream of asking more. You didn't hear of many strikes then did you? Nol There wasu't enough men at work those days to make a decent strike; and those who were at work on starvation wages dare n it ask for a raise in wages for two reasons: (1) They knew their em ployers could not, under the exist ing circumstances, afford to pay more. (2) They were fearful that, should they ask for a slight increase, that the little they were already getting would be taken from them and given to some other man stand ing by, with a look of hunger in his eye, begging for work. .Men didn't work in those days they begged. In a feeble way this illus trates the difference between re publican prosperity and a demo cratic miscarriage. MEMORIAL DAY EXERCISES, Memorial Day, last Thursday, was observed by the people in Cot tage Grove in n befitting manner, appropriate exercises being held in the city and at the cemetery. A goodly number of people were in Irom the country to help observe the day. The line of march formed in front of the city hall in the follow ing order: G. A. R., Ladies of the G. A. R., and W. R. C, I. O. O. F., Firemen, school children and citizens on foot ana in carnages. Promptly nt 10 a. m. the line started on its march to the cemetery. On its arrival the different organ izations gathered around a monu ment erected in honor of the sol dier dead, and after it had been decorated with flowers the cere monies of the day were performed, after which the graves of all the dead in the cemetery were decorated with flowers. TUB MEMORIAL ADDRESS Was delivered by Mrs. Wand, president of the G. A. R. Circle at Salem. A fair sized audience greeted the speaker and listened attentively to a very interesting address by this gifted lady. She is an entertaining speaker and be- inc in close touch with the Civil war, seemed an able person toad dress the people on this subject. She touched upon the observance of this dav, the Funeral Day of the Nation, how the graves of the soldiers are strewn with beautiful flowers each Decoration Day, and that no more fitting time of the year could be chosen than this spring day when Earth spreads her green mantle over the last resting place of our departed heroes and the flowers burst forth in all their beauty that we may decorate the patriots graves with the emblems ot our love. She spoke of the different phases of the war, telling of the first war meeting she attended in brick church in Massachusetts, how the. people packed that meet ing house, and how when the call was made the 'young men flocked to the front willing to lay down their lives if need be for the cause ol right. She closed by express- the thought that we should teach our children to observe the day and grow up loving the memories of these heroes who fought for a just cause. A. P.

Otto Myher, book keeper for the Southern Pacific Co's tie plant now operating at Latham, is in town quite frequently hunting for men to work at the plant, but nearly al ways meets with poor success, not withstanding the depressing hard times (?) occasioned by the McKiu ley administration. Only this week he was in on one of his still hunts for men, and told the following in cident: The other day a young, well dressed man that is dressed in good clean laborer's clothes came to the plant and asked for a job. He was told that he could go to work that night. He said alright, and put in his time sauntering around the plant, taking notes. At dinner time he was told to go in to dinner. He dfa so, and some time after the noon hour he came to the book keeper and asked for his bill He was told to keep his money that it was not necessary that he should pay cash for his meals, that board would be charged up to him and deducted a the end of the month. "No," he insisted, "I want to pay for my dinner, and I guess I will ifot go to work tonight." "Not go to work," exclaimed the astonished book keeper. "No, I guess I won't take the job, the place don't hardly , uit me; it Isn't clean work enough." Imagine a man six years ago throw ing up a job on such an excuse. MINE SOLD. Mrs. Otto Fredrickscn this week 'sold her interest in the Fredricksen Currin mining claim in Bohemia this week to Wheeler & Scott for $300. Letters uave oeen received 111 Portland by relatives that Joaquin (Hiuer) Miller has made a fortune It seems that a few months ago he became tired of his California home and he started to Texas with the idea of hunting a new home, no particular section being in view At any rate he "got off the cars" at the then village of Beaumont, (this was before the oil discovery at and near that place) and close by pur chased 1000 acres at nominal figures. Since then the great gushing oil wells have been discovered and there are several on Mr. Miller's ranch. The discovery has made him rich, probably a millionaire and he is happy. Once before he made a fortune on Wall street and as quickly lost it. On that account he has already announced that he intends bequeath ing his home, "The Heights," 100 acres, near Oakland, Cal. to the school children of that city, al though his aged mother and other relatives will use it for their home many years yet. Miller's parents came to Oregon in 1852, and his father died in Eu gene. 1 or a time he was editor of the Democrat Review in Eugene in the '6o's. MKDAL CCNTKST.
