Where is the man Hint sntd thnt Hermann would be defeated by 3000? The democratic press can now view with alarm the future of the republican party Mr. Hermann is elected. The city is taking the right course in demanding that the back yards, alleys and streets shall be cleaned up. It would be gratifying to many users of the city water if the city would provide a sewerage. Most of the property owners, especially on Main street would gladly make the required connections. While no doubt that Mr. Reames was "particularly" anxious to be elected, it is "particularly" agree able to the republicans that he fell short about 2000 personal letters in this "particular." Oregon Mineral Springs and many Timbering Interests Dooming, It is particularly pleasing hear on every side that there is more business done in Cottage Grove, in proportion to the size of the town, than any other place in the Willamette valley. While it would have been more satisfactory to Cottage Groveites to have had a steel bridge across the river, still the one being built is a great improvement upon the old one, and we are mighty thankful for small favors. Acain, the republican party of this district has been victorious in the election of Hon. Binger Her mann, in the face of many trying and exasperating circumstances. The election of a democratic gov ernor a year ago put the democrats of the state on their mettle, and j every effort was made in the con gressional contest just closed to elect the democratic nominee. It is a foregone fact that the demo crats are workers. It is to the dis credit of the republican party that there is always more or less apathy in the ranks. In other than presi dential elections it is seldom that a full republican vote is cast. In the 1 contest just passed many were con- j fident ot Mr. Hermann's election and therefore little effort was made j to get to the poles. The fact that 1 ThroiiRh Die courtesy of t-ovl Ucr a NiiKrret reporter was kIvoii the plea sure of a trip ti the Orvfron Mltioral Springs on Inst Sunday and enjoyed an outing amlriHt the most beautiful scenery on the Pacific Slope.

The Coast Fork I.umlier Company have two saw mils near London, one 3 J.Hi Sttemotiaf d- Memorial day dawned clear, bright and warm and the streets of Cottage Grove were early filled with the town folk and people from all the country side bearing fragrant (lowers with which to strew upon the graves of the departed comrades who sleep in the silent cemetery just south of town, and also to bestow loving mementoes of nature's choicest buds upon the little mounds beneath which rest the remains of their dear ones gone before. The sileut home of the dead ncver looked more beautiful mid peaceful than 011 Saturday last. At 0:30 in the morning some thirty veterans and many ladies of the Women's Relief Corpse met nt the G. A. R. Hall anil marched in a body to the cemetery, accompanied by large number ol people on foot and in carriages, escorted by martial music to which the veterans kept, steady trend. The ceremonies around the monument to the 'unknown dead" were conducted by Appomattox Post. Commander McRey' nolds read the ritual provided for the occasion. General or tiers from army headquarters were read by Comrade Supple -The ritual prayer was read by Comrade Gardner. Comradu Supple then read Lincoln's address at Gettysburg. The cere tnony of decorating the monument to the "unknown dead' was then periormed alter wnicti the veterans marched in double file throughout the cemetery and each laid a floral tribute upon the mound of each departed comrade. The post re-formed at the monument and .vith bowed heads and silent prayer listened while Mr. Charles Cochran rendered 011 the cornet the beautiful strains of the last, call fortapps. The cere monies ended the post marched back to the G. A. R. ball and were dismissed. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the veterans reassembled at their hall and marched to the Opera House for more extended observance of the the day. 1 he hall was filled with an ex p ctant and appreciative audience mid the program opened with singing by a choir t a dozen voices led by Mr. Awbrey. Prayer was then offered by Comrade Gardner. Comrade Supple then read the Memorial Address. A stirring and elu qttent oration was delivered by Comrade Gardner recounting the valorous deeds of the men who gave their all that his na tion might live, ami voicing the hope that succeeding gener ations will carry forward the heritage they shed their blood to establish, and keep this nation as it is today the peer of all the nations ol the eartn the home ol freedom. A recitation, "The Blue and the Gray," was rendered by Miss Hstella Cochran. Master Drown followed with an "Answer to the Blue and the Gray." Theu the choir rendered n pa riotic se lection. .Miss Mabie Cochran recited "Our Heroes Shall Live Another ueautilull ;-election by the choir and the exercises were then brought to n close by the rendition of a dream vision poem by Comrade Miller. Business was generally suspended throughout the middle of the day and the more thoughtful of our people kept the day, if not to the letter, well up to the spirit thereof, for which the members of the G. A. R. and W. R. C. are grateful. Following is President Lincoln's address at Gettysburg, delivered on November 19, 1863: lour score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war; testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. Wc have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for' those who here gave their lives that that na tion might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger .-en-e. we cannot dedicate we cannot con'ecrate we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggle here, have consecrated it, far aloc nnr poor power to add or detract. The world will little tt . nor long remember what we say here, but it cau never I- rgn what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to dedicated here to the -.infiuislied work which they who 011 :.: here nave thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that Irom these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devo tion that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, tinder God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, tor the people, shall not perish from the earth."
