As this fell on the opening day of the Panama canal, a pretty demonstration was given bv the Ilillsboro school. The children formed a hollow square to represent the locks in Panama and at the moment when the whistles blew for the opening, Uncle Sam step ped forward and commanded the locks to open. Out of the locks came a float representing the good ship Oregon, the first to puss through.

Bv the way, we shoulJ be glad to hear of some town in Oregon that is not the home of some product. nicii only goes to prove what a wonderful state it is that excels in so many and such di versified products.

After Fifty-Sir Years Government May Make Amends For Blunder By Giving Man f!20,000. After years of patient waiting George E. Zimmerman of Grande Rondo, one of Polk county's earliest pioneers will nt least be partially ronaid for I'.s financial suffering as the result of a blunder by the .Unit ed States government, should the bill which has been introduced in the United States ..enate by benator Chamberlain pass. The bill provides for the payment to him of the sum of $20,000 in recompense of a quarter section of land wliicli was erroneous ly patented by another man. Zimmerman lued on J.OU acres un der the Oregon donation net, and ex ecuted an affidavit to the effect that he lived on it from November 20, 1855 to November 23, 1859. He ap- nhed to have it surveyed, lhe in- tenor department lias reported thai through an eiror the land was award ed to another person. Those who lived in Polk county in the early days will remember Zim merman as a man of high moral cour age and despite the fact that he was always friendly to the Indians the renoit is to the etrect that they tinea his well, cut down his trees, occupied his buildings mid in other ways trans gressed his rights.

Besides the new garments, many second-hand ar ticles have been handled at the same time and donations ot partly worn garments in good repair will . be gladly received though this does not constitute membership.
