Somestimes Right, But Generally
Wrong, It's Our Time.
To act in absolute freedom seems
to be the sole and solitary desire of
the old court house clock that some
time tells the time of day to the
hurrying throngs of industrious Dal-
lasnes to whom a minute means a
dollar lost or earned. And, sad as the
story may be, the old court house
clock accomplishes its sole and soli
tary ambition on every day but Sun
day, and that day doesn't matter, be
cause church is open- all day, and be
sides nobody pays any attention to
the clock on that day. Not long ago
a breathless young couple rushed into
the depot and hurriedly demanded a
ticket, or two of ohem, as they gazed,
in astonishment at the timepiece that
graces the ticket office in that busy
center of industry. All the stories
that the agents could tell them about
the accuracy or their clock could
make no difference to them. They had
seen the court house clock and it had
said "Twelve o'clock, young friends,
you'll have to hurry." The depot
clock was yet five minutes to twelve
when the couple arrived, and it had
been five Vhole minutes since they
left Crider's store. But the coulrt
house clock must be right it has been
telling the same time to the same
people for so many years. The whole
matter resolves itself into an appli
cation that is being prepared for the
county court), asking for the official
position of regulator to' the court
house clock. By telegraphic time, the
great instrument of truth that graces
the tower of the home of Polk coun
ty law and justice is false. A huge,
deceiving monster that never did tell
the right time and never will until
the official regulator gets his job. It
fact, laying iancy aside, that
the clock that is creating this great
strife is never less than five minutes
ahead of the right time, and its chimes,
with die music of factory whistles at
noon and thereabouts, makes rare and
pleasing harmony. Bring on the ap
plication, the clock needs regulating.

A railroad runs from Black Rock in
to the holdings of this company. Other
tracks are owned by the Great West
ern Lumber company and the Wil
lamette Valley Lumber company and
these firms also have railroads run
ning into theilr holdings.
The plan is to settle a bwedish or
Norwegian family on an average of
every forty acres, although it is said
some of the land is in such condition
that a family can be supported on as
small as live acres.
The logs of all the companies own

New Books for ths Library.
A number of valuable and interest
ing books are included in the collec
tion that has been presented to the
library by Mm. B. F. Burge. There
are a number of the volumes in the

"Lea Miserable,' ' "Laughing Man,"
"Toilers of the Sea," and "Notre
Dame." by Victor Hugo. "Elements

Rhetoric and English Composition,"
Independence Mothers Work for Out-
Door Play Room.
A campaign is under wnv at Inde
pendence to raise about $250 for the
'oust ruction ot a covered playshed on
the public school ground. The inter
ior playground is too small and con
fining, hut the children cannot get
out in bad weather. Mothers have
taken the matter in hand and have a
committee of three busily engaged at
soliciting funds among the merchants,
especially those who have children in
school. It is reported that the re
quired amount is rapidly being col
lected and it is expected that con
struction on ths shed wilt start very
soon. Joe Hirschberg heads the list
of contributors with a donation of
$25 toward the good cause.
