MONDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1909 POOR FATHER Children hush, for father's resting; he is sitting, tired and sore, with his feet upon the table and his hat upon the floor. He Is wearied nnd exhausted by the labors of the day; he has talked . about the tariff since the dawn was cold and gray; he has lost eight games of checkers, for his luck today was mean, and that luck wbb still against him, when he bucked the slot machine; so his norves are tinder tension, and his brow is dark with care, and the burdens laid upon him seem too great for him to bear. Stop the clock, for It annoys him; throttle that canary bird; take the baby i to the cellar, where It's howling won't be heard; you must speak in whispers, children, for your father's tired and sore, and he seems , to think the celling is some kind of cuspidor. Oh, he's broken down and beaten by the long and busy day; he's been silting in the feedstore on a bale of prairie hay, telling how the hungry grafters have the country by the throat, how the tariff on dried upples robs ' the poor man of his coat, how this nasty polar rumpus might be settled, once for all and hlB feet are on the table, and his back against the wall; let him find his home a quiet and a heart-consol- lng nest, for the father's worn and weary, and his spirit longs for rest. ., WALT MASON.

"HILL'S GUiV STORE. dI8 ''1 PULL TOGETHER DURING NEXT YEAR ,t The coming year should be one of great growth and progress in Eugene, and it will be if the people stick together and boost good and hard along all lines of endeavor. During the past three years the foundation has been laid for a splendid city, and its population has grown from 6000 to above 12,000. Many sub stantial improvements have been made, streets graded and paved, and substantial buildings, publio and private, erected in large numbers. The era of railroad building, steam and elec tric, seems to have opened, and Eugene's greatest effort at this time should be to secure the greatest possible benefit from this movement. We want more suburban electric lines, a steam road to the coast, and the greatest possible benefit in tHe" operation of train service over the Natron extension now building across the mountains to Klamath Falls. These are the things which will make Eugene a commercial centre of importance, and render permanent the growth of the past three years. .', A steady pull, altogehter, for everything which makes for the general good is what we need, and if a united effort is made throughout the coming year the results will be greater than in the past because of the solid foundation that has been laid. V THE DUTY OF CONGRESS The present congress will have many things to do. The president's program for internal improvements will be submitted and cr j siileration will bo given to it. But the question with the count, y is not so much the amount of legislation, or even the kind, i s tlio spirit with which that legislation is enacted or de feated. There is a desire that congress shall become more rep liiontativo of the people and less cabalistic. The insurgency of lttt year may have been overdone in spots may have been in tended for Chautauqua spectacularism, rather than for olid ef fect, but tho fact remains that it was founded in a correct idea : the idea of less individual depu tation and more popular expres sion, The congress just convened will be judged by the country as much on the influences which appear to dominate it as on the legislation it passes.

ATYEH BROS. . ; That Delaware river is a 1'ooming nuisance. First it tried to head off our General O. Washington, but he beat its game and crossed on the ice. . Now it gets our cruiser Prairie stuck in the mud. ' A very unpatriotic waterway, to say the least. Indiana' is hard to beat-, when it comes to record-making. Close upon the news that She has walked away with the nation's corn priae -comes the word that she leads all other states in the amount of money footed froih her postoffices. . ; .-. , ..v The president of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen has wired President Taft a denial of the rumor that the trainmen ex pected to call a general strike. There's cause for thankfulness, even if Thanksgiving is past. President Taft recommends that the inauguration date be changed from, March 4 to the last Thursday in April. Good! That date will suit us vory nicely if we ever get to be president. . And thq Phoenix F.re Insurance Company, of New York, is mixed up in big financial scandal.
