An liorwt jmuvjti" wrote the alitor, unking the in-st wny to rulfe Wots. -Murk, in his dnirsuteristie way, replied thnt the. I test way known to him was "to uoizo -the tops with hoth 'Imiuls nd pull." To besuire this reply coft tho editor one subscriber smtl Rome, wholesale, ahustv, l'"t wo venture the opinion that there is more fnuiul, pnutioaU wisdom In this answer to an hon est inquiry than most people, will allow on tho fust remling. There is embodied in that one word "pun ' one-half, at leapt, of the practical wisdom of fifty -eight centuries. Couple the word "pull" with its eorrelative "push" and vow have the avre-iated wisdom of the njress, the key to all pueeess, and a business combination that is thorough and practical. Yovumist know that in order to puececd in any undevtakin;; yon must work, unit this means ciib.cr to pull or rush. The practical agriculturist knows (the theorist does net) that vou cannot dip; potatoes with a lead pencil, neither can you mark et farm products on a two-column theory."; Men have been victimiz ed by the sophism that "the world owes" a man a living," have treated with contempt the instructions given the world's first business man, "In the sweat of thy face -rphalt thou eat bread all the diys uTtHy life," and have found it easi er to erect a lightning rod than to tlodjre the thunderbolt. If any bread-winner knows a letter way o raise beits than t "pu!l," or a .surer way to success than to "push" our columns are open to such an one.

Second-hand thoughts are not copyrighted; neither are patents HssuchI to the masses on what is held in common. The man who originates a thought that stands iftpart from all ether thoughts and : refuses to afiiliate with the world's -dumb parchments which have lost ttheir aroma by centuries of hand ling, will always outmeasure the "sservila copyist who only reflects established opinion. No credit is :iven him for sagacity who travels the common thoroughfare that is fenced with mile-stones and fing-er-boards; but the man who blazes --A trail to unknown treasures, and -- prints with his own feet the path 4.o hidden resources is justly called benefactor. For nearlv s:x thou sand years men looked upon elec tricity as an enemy, and pushed their investigations no farther than was demanded by a personal regard for safety. Finally the thoughtful Franklin dared shake hands with the dire enemy, and taught lcs3 ivcute thinkers the wonderful possibilities of this sub tle agent. The best that our insti tutions of learning can do is to teach men and women to think, not simply to absorb the thoughts of by-gone generations, as though th entire field of thought had Wen exhausted and nothihg remained to be done by succeeding genera tions but to label and classify and Assimilate.

If you Eastern people who are munching your dried stores of pro visions which you gathered in 1SS9 couJd get a glimpse of Oregon's bill of fare at this time of the year there would be a general forced march from the Atlantic to the Pa cine Northwest.

The sales of real estate have for tiie past sprint? been quite satisfactory, considerable poqrty having changed hands in the Haustiian ami also the Unlhraith advlilions. Many new liuildiinrs are umh r way and in con templation, and it can be truly said that prosperity is smiling upon us; that our s.-rwth is steady and 1. in tin": and not of tho mushroom order. In jvint of religion and educational advantages Urownsville stands at the head, having a larjco and commodious school house, which has reoetitlv boon , built at nt onsiderntile cost. Almost nil denominations of Christians are repre sented, as are also the various secret rock ties, Masonic, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, etc. Tito fact that tho oiVlo or justice is "nul" speaks w til for the town, there boinar no court, no disorder, and a cala boose, the door of which hardly ever swin-vs on its hinge to admit an offend er of law amldeexncv. To those who jde.Mre jt'xhI sm-iety, a genial climate, rich and productive son, p;t as;mt and attractive surroundings, Urownsville presents this and more to those iu search of hounds or secure investments in real estate, at reasonable and liberal terms.

It is much that accident and sickness should befall the body; but the climax of alliie tion is not reached until the mind itself is out of joint. So long as the poul retains posession of its capacities, man, however assaulted, proves himself the denizen of a mightier sphere. Put when the battery of attack has been turned ttpon the mind, when reason has been assaulted and hurled from her throne, then it is that the spectacle t.f human distress is one upon which even the beings of a higher intelligence than our own may luok nadly and pitifully. THE GEEA TEST 21 IE A CLE. Is it a miracle to pive a man a new physical power, and but a common place act. to give him new dispositions and desires? Is it a groat thing to open his eyes, nod nothing to renew his life? The miracle of miracles, is this: "A new heart will I pive thee and a new spirit will I put within thee." When the proud Prahmin has accepted the troth as it is in Christ, and extended the hand of Clirisitian fellowship to a member of the lowest, oas'c, a greater miracle has been wrought than in the healing of the lame or the raiding of the dead. To put the law "in the inward part.s" and to "write it in the heart," is more Shan to fill the firmament with stars. Knisl-.tn of Pythias Kionaial Conclave, st Milwaukee, Mia., July, 1890.

As its name indicates, the' Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway is the direct route to Milwaukee, and as the camp ground for the Uniformed Knights (to which point cars and trains will be run through without transfer) is lotat&J directly on this line, it will be sern that the Chicago Milwaukee fc St. Paul Railway has a great advantage over other routes vhioh are unable to furnish such t'aeiiities, and visiting Knights, thcir familics and friends should bear this in mind when purchasing excursion 'ickefs.

The cause of all this is an arti cle which aj.jteard ahove our uom-.lr plume in a previous isruc of the Lei -anon l-.xi'iiKrS, in which we gave a fair, impartial, and correct statt men-. ;f a dispute between the ilrownsx ilb Times ar.d tome of its siilsci iber;--. Wc asserted in that ar:i-. le that tr c Times is not an independent pap; I. This asi'cruon necsls r.o roof from us, a.-t anyone a1io iid rea I it wi'l stans to conxiiiccd of that fact.

The editor cays our article id silly. His answer is not silly, it i.-o simply i,!i.ti., containing as it does, oontrjuactory stafcnients from one end to tho other, chher ex pressed or impiiod. In a prc.vi )i:s issue of his paper lie prints under hold head-lines tho si an ling newa that he had iiecn boycotted. In the last i--ue lie says only one subscriber dropped bis pnper. Wc ascort that there is nothing in this 1-oycott br.riiKss but wind and gas, and lor proof ve refer the reader to the lircwnsville Times. The editor tal cs exception to our nciude plume. He has been defining lhr word " Nemo" lo several of our tdtbeens on the streets during the last wcck. We are glad that he has found its true mean ing ; there arc many o-hci things he wiii find out as he grows older. In crisici.-ing our late anb'le in the Ex-rri;.-s, be rcfera to a class of people wuli good sense and decency. Per haps he can tc:l us just what he means by "good sense." Wc are con fident that be lias a little reserve fund somewhere, for be wastes iiono of it in getting up bis paper. He may be hoarding his intellectual stocK for the next Democratic campaign. He in vites us to discuss this queftion through the columns of tho Times and promised us fair treatment. Many thanss, but wo must rosjccl fully decline.
