New Partnership P r ic e s R ig h t R P ic tu r e F r a m in g a S p ecialty Screen Doors and Window Screens The petition for an initiative vote to create Nesmith county from the southern part of l.ane and a piece off the northern por tion of Douglas is l>ehig well re ceived. The petition is being thoroughly circulated in Southern Oregon in Jackson county. Rep reseutative I). II. Miller of Med ford is circulating the petition now and Jackson county will con tribute many names. There is a wide stretch of country between Fugene and Rose- burg and it will be converted into a new county some day. F.ugene people are very much opposed to the new county and are preparing to call a conference and see what opposition cau Ire brought to hear or whether to make Cottage drove a fight. The new county would reduce Fugene’s importance as a political and legal center. It is believed the name of Senator J. W. Nesmith will gain the county the necessary votes, outside of the question of the merits of the case. — Valley Record, Ashland. HEAR Y E ! ‘ NESMITH COUNTY C ITY.” Captain Bert K.

Attorney J . S. Medley, the Leader observes, told the Fugene reporters Thursday that he was “ down on legal business.” Not having any children to take to the Sells-Floto circus this was the emi tting plea of the judge. The county has invested in six steel drags for leveling up the county roads, says the Fugene Guard.

She knows‘who is happy, she knows who is blue; She knows all our sorrows, she knows all our. joys, She knows every girl who is chasing the lx>ys; She knows of our troubles, she knows of our strife, She knows every man who is mean to his wife; She knows every time you are out with the lx>ys, She hears the excuses each fellow em- ploys; She knows every man whose inclined to lie fast, In fact there’s ft secret ’neatli each saucy curl Ofthatqniet demure looking telephone girl. II the telephone girl would tell all that she knows It would turn half our friends into bit terest foes; She would sow a small wind that would soon be a gale, Engulf us in trouble and land us in jail: If she would let go her story which gaining in force Would cause half of our wives to sue • for divorce; She would get all the churches mixed up in a fight And turn all our days into sorrowing night: In fact, she could keep the whole town in a stew, If she’d tell the tenth part of the things that she knew. r\o\y doesn't it make,your head whirl When you think what you owe to the telephone girl; —Ex.
