Th?Aurora Observer Entered as second class matter March 28, 1911, at tfje postoffice at Aurora, Oregon, under the Act of March 3,1879. Geo. E. Knapp. Editor and Publisher _ ¡»¿iy E D IT O R IA L Opinions of the Observer With Davis to play to the silk hat crowd and Charlie Bryan to dance for the farmers, the Demo crats should have a pretty good show. To what pass have we come? To what are we coming? Let him who watches the development’of the speed fiend read the following extract from the doings of former days and then let him tell us what is to be the outcome. WE HAVE PROGRESSED A LITTLE The school board of Lancaster, Ohio, in,, 1828, refused to permit the school house to be used for a discussion of the praticability of railroads. “You are welcome to use the school house to debate all proper questions in, but such things as railroads and telegraphs are im possibilities and rank infidelities,” said the members of this school board. “There is nothing in the Word of God about them. If God had designed that His intelligent creatures should travel at the frightful speed of fifteen miles an hour by steam, He would clearly have foretold it through His holy prophecy It is a device of satan to lead immortal souls down to hell.” ,v From My Observation Car BY It. R . JE S T E R Ever since I can remember I have heard the locomotive referred to as a member of the fair sex, that is, it is a “she” or a “her.” I never knew just why, but I, some one who signs herself as a “Japan ese Lady,” has written a letter to the Shipping Register which gives me all the reasons why a locomotive belongs to the feminine fraternity. This letter is credited with saying: “Some time ago you publish in your voluble paper article, on fe male shipping steamer. I have thought to write you about female engine on train. You know why? Yes, they call she for many be- causes. They wear jacket with yokas, pins, hangers, straps, shields, stays. They have apron also lap. Also hose and drag train (psgr. and freight) behind; behind time all time. They attract men with puffs and mufflers and when draft too strong petticoat goes up. This is also attract. Sometime they foam and refuse to work when at such time they should be switched. They need guiding—it always require man manager. They require man to feed them. When abuse are given they quickly make scrap. They are steadier when coupled up but my cousin say they hell of expense. Is not enough reason?” As far as I am concerned I will not argue with the “Japanese Lady.” In fact, I don’t think there is any argument in the mat ter. What do you boys think about it?—From Railway Journal. Music of the Orient Harsh and Strident The idea as to what real music really is varies according to race and en vironment. Music of the Orient is apt to jar upon sensitive occidental ears. Take the question of drums as an in stance. The playing of drums in Euro pean orchestras has reached a high standard of art, though it is rare that more than three or four are used. In a Burmese orchestra, however, the two principal instruments are one made of a series of drums called the seing- weing and a similar series of gongs called the kyee or gongs graduated in size, the drums being played with the fingers and hands and the gongs with knobsticks. Besides these there are cymbals, tom-toms and castanets.the last-named being much larger than the European instruments and made of bamboo. Of wind instruments there are only a number of clarinets and one flute played by the leader or conduc tor. String instruments are not used, and there are also no brass Instru ments.
