MBMHWR OP ASSOCIATED Entered at Nugene, Oregon, postefflm as aeeMd-class natter FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1908 A lady living near Skinner's Butte makes a timely sugges tion to The Guard. She thinks the cutting of Christmas tree3 there should be prohibited, since this beautiful natural park, now the property of the city, is suffering at the hands of boy3 who use the cutting of Christmas trees as an excuse for acts of vandalism. Yesterday, khe states, a fine young tree thirty feet high was cut down by boys and left lying on the ground where it fell, and such wanton acts are of common occurrence. The city authorities should at once take vigorous steps to protect the "butte with its evergreen trees from such ravages, since it is des tined in time, if properly cared for, to become Eugene's most attractive public park, and the best way to do this would be to prohibit the cutting of timber for any purpose thereon. !

L. j Mikkeisen, from toxic meningitis, caused by ptomaine poisoning. The , little girl, who was a twin, was ill only a day. She had been at school the day 'before and went home at noon feeling badly but expected to return In the afternoon. She was un able to, however, having taken worse. The funeral will be held Saturday af ternoon at 2 o'clock with interment In the I. O. O. F. cemetery. Because the city council is honestly trying to give the people relief in respect to water, light and power service, the members p,re again being subjected to unjustifiable attacks from interest ed parties. If the plain people of Eugene will think of their own interests and not be mislead by the attacks upon the members of (be city administration, made for misleading purposes, they will see the wisdom of the movement being made to free the city from the control of private corporation monopoly. Senator Jeff Davis is still on the trail of the octopusbut he isn't going to be still much longer he has given notice of an other speech, which will incidentally go to prove that the stories of his having lost his voice were greatly exaggerated.
