To satisfy the overweening anxiety of some members of the legislature, they should have been permitted to elect a United States Senator to take his seat :ncase Senator Mitchell dies longer, and tho kindly smiles are all too rare. A generous act is a little tliinsr lost in the stream of greed and grab. Yet it ' brightens many a gloom-laden life and scatters tho somber clouds of sorrow, and the sunshine o! an unselfish deed enshrines the doer in its srlorv and unselfish acts are all too scarce. Ex. Fox Takes Ilia Ie pnrttirw Asa Tavlor has lost his fox. After spending fourteen months in domesticating it, the varmint broke his chain a few days ago and left tor pastures new. It has Wen kept in the front yard fastened to a large oak tree, and now the ab sence of the fox on the beaten trail around the tree gives Asa a feeling of lonliness and he offers twenty dollars for the return of his pet. The fox was a beautiful silver grey, eighteen months old and answers to the name of "'Jack." It has swallow-fork cut out of the right ear. While pretended friends are deserting Senator Mitchell like rats fleeing from a. sinking ship, the law firm of Simon & Adolph, his lifelong political enemies, proffer their services iu his defense. The stock shippers bill had a rocky road but it has now passed both Houses and is filed in the Secretary of State's of fice beyond the recall of the Governor and will become a law 90 days from Monday, February 3. Governor Chamberlain had slated it for veto but upon rep resentation of W. W. Percival and others decided to allow it to pass to the atatute books. Convention At McMliiiivllle. The Women of Woodcraft of dis trict number eleven are holding i convention at MoMinnviIIe this week. The delegates from the va rious lodges in this vicinity took tbe two o'clock train from here Tuesday for McMinnville. They are as follows: Mrs. J. II. Bohan- non, Independence circle; Mrs. A J. Byers, Monmouth; Mrs. Mary Meador, Monmouth Sunbeam Circle; Miss Lulu Locke, Buena Vista Circle; Mesdamea Kerslake, Ganier, Fiske, Cherrington and Tatum, Dallas Circle. A wild flower is a little thing lest in the green of full- robed spring. Yet its beauty brightens the scene, and its fragrance sweet ens the air, wafting the brim ming cup of June to . many t jaded heart and it drops fits petah all too soon. A dew drop is a little thing- lost in the glory of a summer's ; morn. . - Yet it sparkles with the splen dor of the rising sun, and glis tens with the myriad colors of hope, reflecting the freshness of the new-born day to the tired eye and its fragile life is all too short. A bird's song is a little thing lost in the depths of a forest dell. Yet its whistled music light ens the purple shadows of the woodland gloom and its mes sage of melody cheers the mind with the gladness of summer and the song is ended all too quickly. A ray of sunshine is a little thing lost in the gold of a noontide flood. Yet it gilds with the -'magic mystery of life and at its soft caress the . barren earth bursts into bloom, and wherever it falls care-laden souls are bright er and burdens seem lighter, and the clouds come all too soon. A kind word is a little thing- lost in the buzz of a busy world. Yet to worried, discouraged souls it brings new . life and faith, and purpose grows clearer and love grows dearer, and the cheering words are all too few. A sunny smile is a little thing lost in a life of work and sor row. Yet to the burdened and care laden heart it carries fresh hope and cheer, and courage . grows stronger, and the day , seems M.F. itose Buys English Shire The young English Shire horse brought here a few weeks ago from the A. C. Ruby farm near Pendle ton has been purchased by M. F. Rose of Monmouth. Mr. Rose paid $2800 for the animal. He is three years old weighing 1800 pounds and is pronounced a fine specimen of the draft horse by judges of horse flesh. He will b kept in Monmouth and Independence and if he proves the breeder that he is expected to be, will do a great deal toward building up the quality of draft horses in this vicinity.
