Ho stated that he has a flue lot of apples and baa been market log them in this city, but bo will bring no more thia a'ason to Oranta Pasa for the road between Woodvllle and hero ia In anch a condition that a full load cannot be hauled, making the trip too unprofitable to bo under taken. Mr. Perdue stated that were theio a good macadamized road from Woodvillo to Grants Pass, that tbe farmers and miners won lit do mnch of their trading hero, esiiecially the Turner for this city was always a good market for produce. Mr. Perdue said that the long, hard pull over the Pry Diggings was now one of the I worst ohMacIca to the farmers np ; Itogno river reaching Grants Pass. Willi the road along the river on an i easy grade, loaded teams could get along even If tho road was muddy, hut to add to the illlllcnllT of a bard pull over a bill that ia totally un necessary, is a handicap that the i farmers do not caro to overcome.

Four local papera coming into the home at one time, or jut at the cloed of the week ia a auperfluity, ao we can make a selection and cut them down to our choice. The character of the literature in a home, indicatea the character of ita inmates. JSewapapera are read by many who never read hooka, ao we can hardly estimate the influence of the local press. Frances Willard, In her plea to the preBa, said "We know many of the diaad vautagea against which yon contend, but notwithstanding these, to tell the atory of today ao aa to make the world more brotherly tomorrow, ia the only right way and would alao prove ex pedient for all concerned." February 17th Seven yeara from the date of Francea Willard'a death, was the day appointed for the un veiling of the atatue of Francea Willard in Statuary Hall at the Capi tol. The following U the inscription on the pedeatal: "Ah, it la women who have given the costliest hoetpge to fortune. Out Into the battle of life they have aent their best beloved, with fearful odda against tliem. Oh, by the dangers they have dared, by the hours of patient watching over beds where holplesa children lay; by the incenae of tun thousand prayers wafted from their gentle lipa to Heaven. I charge you give them power to protect along life's treacherous highways, those whom they have so loved. " FRANCES E. WILLARD. "Illinois next "week will present the second of the statues which It 1b entitled to place iu Statuary Hall, at the national rapltol.

It is a tiding and beauti ful tribute, the more so when con trasted with the remarkable selections of aome other states. There may ! have been aome question as to the imprietvof ignoring the famous and deserving Illiuoisana eligible for a niche in Statuary Hall, but there can be none concerning the merits of Miss Willard.
