The young gentleman who so successfully put to flight a would-be-robber, at Beaverton, the other night, deserves the praise and thanks of the entire county. It seems that he has been collecting for Dr. Robinson, at that place, and it was supposed by the man who made the attack that he might have money on his person. The lesson will lie a salutary one, and will undoubtedly purge the moral atmosphere of our county to some extent. His action will stimulate many to decisive action under sim ilar circumstances, and it will have an effect to stop such dep redations. Flesh and blood do not stand many such onslaughts, and the robber element will be checked somewhat. He has the admiration of our entire force and under the same conditions, only for its abjtct cowardice, it would do the same thing as did Mr. Perry. A "Dog-Gone" Suit. There was a very amusing suit Tuesday morning before Justice Knight. The two contestants were A. G. Anderson, who lives two miles south of town, and a disciple of Li Hung Chang, who laundries Hillsboro's fine linen. The Orient al lost a dog several weeks ago, and when Mr. Anderson, who had a similar canine, came to town, he claimed the midnight defender of homes, as his own. To this Mr. Anderson objected and the matter was settled in the justice court. Judge Knight, in this case, referee, told the Chinese to leave the room and see if his dogship would follow, but like the felloe in the circus "he never moved." Thereupon Mr. Anderson was directed to move away, and upon so doing the ca nine followed with alacrity. This settled the matter so far as vested rights to the property were con cerned, and seeing that the celes tial was acting in good faith he was discharged, and Mr. Anderson awarded the animal. "Chinaman no likee!" Yule Tide. Christmas comes but once a year. It is a good day, for it brings smiles to children's faces, and what in this world is so sweet? Teach the little ones to be ihank ful for what Santa Claus brings, and tell them that there are many little ones whose parents names are not in the big directory, bo they will receive no gift. Tell them of the poor little fellows that have no bright or cheery fireplace to look upon, on Christinas day. Teach them that it is their duty to al ways look upon such little folks With Compassion. As for you grown children, go it, but don't indulge in too much gift-making for St. Nicholas may send you a sight draft. Forget your debtors and creditois for one day, and let that day bo Christinas.

We are talking about an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. If 8 so cheap and so good you can't afford in this day of progress to be without it. There are other papers possibly as good, but none better, and none just like it. It prints all the real news of the world the news you care for-every day, and prints it in the shortest possible space. You can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day's work too. It is an independent paper and gives all political news free from the taint of party bias. In a word it's a complete, condensed, clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the largest morning circulation in Chicago or the west 125,000 to 140,000 a day. Prof. j.
