It will be remembered the comical showing the two deputies made In the circuit rourt In Eugene, to u'Jury of twelve men, trying; to explain how I held my gun, and which direction the, muwle of It waa pointed. They didn't! anow whether the sun roue In the ( cunt or went a there waa io much difference In their two stories on the( witness atand there Is' between a; tlnck cat and a canary bird.

Who paid the bill? Why. tho taxpayer 'of course. On the 28lh of June Joe Morse sentf deputy sheriff Glide down to Cooullle to bring me to Mapleton before Joe1 Morn on a charge of forgery. After ( waa returned to Mapleton. I saw no aarrant or heard no complaint read, j Just simply taken to Jull like a dog to tho pond. Now aa thla la the j third time that I have been held here, In jail at the county'a expense. It Is my earnest desire that all the good . people of Eugene and law abiding citizen will come, to the court house and hear my trial and then form your( own opinion whether or not I am a thief or a man. I might add that a! x teen years ago tie government j gave to me and my wife ICO acres of the rich land of western Lane. Myl place la five miles from the ocean i beach In township 18, south of range. 11, went of Willamette meridian, and seven miles northeast of the lleceta light house. Remember and bear In mind that this ia the last' frontier of tho far weal where there la still good government land to be' had. I have located, or caused to ho( located, the greater part of 28.000 j acres of land In the vicinity of my j home In the last five years.

Financial Loss Due To Colds It Is estimated that the average man loses three days time each year from Inability to work on account of luiving a cold. Much of thla loss can be avoided by treating every cold ns noon ns the first symptoms ft the disease appear. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has won a wide repu tjitlun and immense Bale by its cures of this disease. Try !t. You are cer tain to be pleused with Its pleiwant tanto and the prompt relief which It affords. that Milk comes In bottles and usually found on the tack step. Not every city housekeeper hair an ade quate conception of tho relation of the dairy farm to her regular dally supply of milk or cream. The farm to many cfiy people Is a, place to spend a week's vacation, and thj farmer and his family aro a class of folks different from those that live on the city's checkerboard of, lots and blocks. No, farming and farm peo ple aro not fully understood by the peopie In the city, and one of the great problems of the present day Is to create a proper understanding of them, and. In reverse order, a t roper understanding of city people and city life by country folk. There ' no fundamental difference between the people of the city and the peo ple of thG country. They aro all n em hers of the same big human family, and they are all except a very small percentage producers of something. It Just happens that the farmers are producing that basic of all necessities, food. Some of the things that are produced In the city could be eliminated and the world move on unchecked. Not so the farmer's product Eliminate ft or re duce It even 25 per cent and havoc la wrought In every walk of life. There should be no contentions be tween city and country. Each should understand the other and each grant the other the Justice that its relation ship to the onward progress of life entitles it to receive. It Is no offense to be a consumer of tho foods that come from the soil; It Is no offense to be a producer of them. Without the consumption there need be no production; without the production there can be no consumption. It Is one of tho first essentials of our pres ent day that everything possible be done to harmonize the thinking of irban and rural Ufa. Oregon Farmer. ' OREGON GOAT SELLS FOR RECORD PRICE - 1 X Y.'
