Mow we love to sit and think of our childhood days, of our pareuts so good and kind, who indulged us in our very wish, of our brothers and sisters, and what good times we used to have at the old home. But how things have changed. Our parents, perhaps are dead, and some perhaps all of our brothers add sisters are gone. How sad now to look back. We can see, thoBe of us, who have families of our own, what sacrifices that dear mother made for us in our child hood and how poorly we repaid her kindness. How different things would be if we could only have our former days to go over again, and when our children go against our wishes our thoughts go back to that dear one, whom we must have hurt by just such actions in our younger days, and gladly would we recall all our quick-spoken words, every gesture, every thought even that to make her life a burden. But now that our old home is a thing of the past, we must shoulder cares and troubles, and try to do by our children as our parents did. Our happiest time now is when we have our children all around us, teach ing them one by to lisp those words so dear to us, guiding their little feet. While they take the first Btep. watching over every move ment, as it were. But how soon this is past. They soon grow up, and then comes our heartaches, when they begin to know more than we do, when the son thinks of making a home of his own. tlhen if mother ventures an opinion, she dosn't know half, as much as he does. It seems strange that a mother will raise a child from in fancy, give her life almost for him then when he gets just where he could be a help and comfort to her he leaves her and turns to, I might say, and sometimes one, who is unworthy of him. How a moth er's heart must ache at that time, after all her sacrifices for so many years for the comfort of that son, to see him turn to another and know that she is only second in his thoughts now. Boys, cling to your mothers. You have but one, and oh, how many, many times, have you neglected her. West Side. When a man milks a cow, he should not attempt to smoke a ci gar at the same time. A young man at Lone Rock tried it and got along well enough until he low ered his head and touched the cowb flank with the lighted end of his weed. The next instant himself and the cigar were dreadfully "put out." The cow introduced about 2 tons weight into one of her hind legs, and then passed it under the milker's jaw. When he ceased whirling around and the myriads of stars disappeared, he said farm ing was the hardest work a man could turn his hand to. The Spokane Review of Nov. 19th says: Yesterday the Nez Perce reservation was a wilderness. Last night a thousand cam puree fared up in the darkness. Today will rise the framework of a thous and rude cabins, and tomorrow the plow will be turning sod that has lain unbroken since the creation. A few weeks hence schools will be in progress, churches will be built roads laid out. justice courts estab lished, and all the machinery of the well nigh perfect goverment of the republic will be in motion without a jar and almost without friction. The Oregonian was 45 years old last Wednesday and its increase of growth and importance has been in keeping with that of the Pacific northwest. No dozen other jour nals have had so much to do with the history of this region and today it stands without a peer among us. No matter what some may think of its political utterances as a news paper, we can find nothing to take its place in interest and value to Oregonians. To begin with, it was email, obscure and of little influ ence, but a constant and substan tial growth have made it now the greatest power in Oregon. An exchange rears upon ite hind - legs and screeches: . Will somebody please tell us why our lawmakers are never arrested for pawing worthless bills? When interviewed in Washing ton as to the best means for raising revenue for the government, Con gressman Ellis said: "I favor the imposition of an additional tax of 1 dollar per barrel on beer. This would bring in at least $30,000,000 and would harm nobody. Its only effect being to diminish to some ex tent the enormous profits of the brewers." Thus one by one our re publican congressmen are begin ning to recognize the fact that there is another way of raising revenue than taxing necessities of life. E. O. Hon. W. R. Ellis, member of congress from this district, has been elected secretary of the repub lican congressional caucus. He re ceived 139 votes ' to 77 for Mr. Hooker of New York. This elec tion is a compliment to our repre sentative, and shows him possessed of influence among his associates in the party. Ex-Judge Frank J. Taylor is running for mayor of Astoria on the republican ticket. He is re garded as a "good fellow," but it is being "thrown up to him" that he sentenced Sandy Olds, a murder er, to the penitentiary for only one year, and shortly afterward sent up a poor fellow, who stole a fish, for 2 years. ' Spain threatens to sell Cuba to England to spite the United States. Judging from the way Spanish troops are getting worsted in Cuba it is doubtful if the mother country is in a position to give a very clear title to the island. A young lady at Leavenworth, Kan., is claiming $5000 because a young man hugged her. We hope the penalty is another hug. Want to Repudiate. A 8Qit has been commenced in tbe circuit court for baker county whereby certain taxpayers ask the court to en join the county treasurer from paying the debts of the county in excess of the constitutional limit. Outstanding war rants of the county with accrued inter est thereon amount to over $285,000, and the plaintiffs in the suit ask that all but 5000 of this be repudiated. The plaintiffs allege, that the indebtedness was "illegally, wrongfully, unlawfully and fraudulently created by tbe defend ant and that no part thereof was so cre ated for the purpose of suppressing in surrection or repelling invasion, nor in the discbarge of any legally constituted liability in said county whatever." They base their grounds for action on Article 11, Section 10 of tbe constitution, which is as follows: "No county shall create any debt or liabilities which shall singly or in tbe aggregate exceed the sum of 15000 except to suppress insur rection or repel invasion, and the debts of any county at tbe time this constitu tion takes effect, shall be disregarded in estimating the sum of which such coun ty is limited." It is not probable that any court will literally construe this article of tbe con stitution and by its decision allow a county to repudiate debts that have been incurred in good faith, so long as the evidence of debt is held by innocent parties ; but it will give the courts of the state an opportunity to say whether the organic laws of the state mean any thing or are simply an aggregation cf meaningless words to be violated when ever officials see fit. A decision on this point has long been needed in Oregon, and the result of the suit commenced in Baker county will be watched with interest. When in Fossil go toChas. G.
