HOME.
Where in all our wanderings, do
we ever find a place like home?
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.

Geo. W. Jenkins, editor of tbe Santa
Maria "Times," Cal., in speaking of tbe
various ailments of children said : When
my children have croup there is only
one patent medicine that I ever use, and
that is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
It possesses some medical properties that
relieve me nine suuerers immediately.
It is, in my opinion, tbe best cough med
icine in the market." If this remedy is
freely given as soon as the croupy cough
appears it will prevent the attack. There
is no danger in giving it to children, as
it contains nothing injurious. For sale
by all druggists.
