Burnett, is Senator Bourne made the mistake o f his life in opposing the appointment o f Pulton to that judgeship, it it was his desire to get the latter oat o f his way. With Pulton on the federal bench his political wings would have been pretty effectively clipped, but with a law office established in Portland, the home o f Bourne, it is easy to surmise that the latter will have reason to regret the blunder he has made, in the not very distant future.

W hat progress we are making! T o an outsider the seeming willingness o f Oregon City to allow the old home o f Dr. John M cLoughlin to be torn down and carted aw ay, appears to be a very short sighted attitude.

Some one recently mailed the Graphic a copy ot the M onroe County, Wisconsin, Democrat, with a blue pencil mark above a column article in which some comparisons are made, where a Justice of the peace in that state fined three Indians $60 for kill ing a coon out o f season, while a saloon keeper was fined but $10 for selling beer to a fifteen year old boy.
