Rider Wayoack Heard From A(alo,
Mr, Editoe:-I wtiz thlnkln that
Lebanon wuz havln hard enurf times,
what with populists, maccabees, and
revivals, and that air Cal Jewpepper,
but here comes "Jerry Jim Jams," and
turns loose like plzen, and argufies for
them shoutin method 1st, and exposes
the aekrete of the republican club, the
same beln composed principally of
lawyers, polltishuns, and horse-doctors.
How sumever, he set me to thlnklu,
and when the wheels get to goln
around In my head, someplu gets
ground out. ' ., .
I haint ben up to Lebanon much
since hollydays, fur the road from
Camas Flat has bin so muddy, I didn't
like to look at It. It looks like the
Mizzury river, and as I am the super
vizor, I don't like to hear my nayburs
cuesin mo for lack of energy in not 1m
provin it more then I doo. How sum
ever I kin write and that resignats me
to llvin down here at the flat.
We don't have eniiy leotrie lights to
milk our cows by, and If we do have
to coon the fence to git frum the house
to the bam, we are not to enny egz
pence fur sidewalks.
I alut no debater, but I must take
excepUhuns to wun of Jim Jam's
statements. He sez, "you can't get
people to think of heven.fur times Is
so hard and the courrtfy is so full of
populists." Why that is just the time
they.do think of hoven, their Is allways
a big lot of revivals just after a period
of depreshun, and I can pnve what I
say by the Oregonian, the people turn
to salvation then fur its the only thing
that Is free, and they hevn't got any
money to Bpeud In riotus liyin. If
mouey was as plenty as the populists
want it, Iheprecchers would have to
go to Afriky for their coaverts. The
people would go sailin strait down the
road to hades and pay the cash as they
went, and forget all the store bills they
ever owed.
Howsumever, I thot I would try my
hand at convertiit some of them popu
lists, In accordance with the advice of
thepriMiilewBH.lit Ltbanou republikin
club. He told me that if we elected
any body to office this campagne we
must get in and work, and as I am not
afraid of work I got in at wunst. I was
afeerd frum the way the democrats
were jinin the populists there wuzn't
goin to be any "Jacksonlan democra
cy" left In "old Liun," and I hate to
vote by myself. I hed been considera
ble suspishus of Ezra Clodhopper of
late, be has been goln' to Lebanon a
good deal of late, evin fur a thirsty
man, aud I knew he wasn't goiu up
there just to likkerdate his debts. I
beam tell how he went up there to
near the populist preacher speak In
Montague's store, and bow he forgot
hlsself and Bald amen, when the
preacher gave It to the plutocrats

found him spllttln wood, and I sat
dowu on the fence close by, and com
menced boinbardin him with argu.
ment. He llsteued too me fur quite a
spi'II and then lie lay down his ax and
sez be, "Elder who pays the tax, me
or the furriner?" It almost knocked
me off that fence, but I sez "you wait
until the Wilson Bill passes and they
won't be eminy tax to pay, we are goln
to run thlsguvertimeutbyselllu bonds
to pay the taxes. Then he started In
and he proved to his own satisfaction
that "we were goln strait down the
road to ruin," under the management
of the old parties, and blame me, If be
didn't have bis peece so well, he just
twisted me up until T didn't know
whether I was a republiklu or demo
crat. He argued away aud pretty soon
It began to spit anew, and pretty soon
It spit whole handfuls of it, and his
teeth rattled like a dice-box he wits so
cold, I oouldnt stand It any longer
and I told him to let up, I couldn't
stand off such a wind-mill an he wuz,
out 11 no wouiu iuik sense 1 would ar

Seems like I sint no good convertln
populists, they won't have enny of
your plat form and as theirs don't have
ennythlng In It that a republikin or a
democrat can understand; how are we
to get our auger into 'em?
Sny, Jim Jams, 1 am comin up to
that republikin olub, and If you have
a mourner's benoh, I think I'll goln
with you. For accordin to the popu
lists there aint any difference between
a democrat and a republican euny way.
So you be on hand with your grip and

Fresno (Col.) Expositor.
Mrs, Evans showed how well she Is
qualified to bring up her children to
emulate the deeds of their Illustrious
sire, during her visit with him on the
road from Modesto to the State's pris
on at Folsom. . She repeatedly Up
braided the partner of her oys and tbe
father of her children for not contin
uing his career of murder when at bay
and surrounded by bis little sons, until
he bad killed as many more men as
possible before Anally receiving a coup
de grace from his surviving pursuers.
Such is the woman who is tbe mother
of the sons of such a father! She Is
lett to continue the education of the
Evans children in crime while he Is In
prison for life, If ever there was a
mother who was unfitted for mother
hood In a civilized community this
woman Is she. The proper authorities
should lose no time In removing the
Evnns children from the vicious Influ
ence of their natural protector, and in
placing them where their minds will
be turned from thoughts of murder
and rebbery and demoralization of
every kind, to better and nobler things,
to the end that society may not be ex
posed to the ravageB of a new crop of
murderei'B and robbers when these
children grow to maturity.
Tide Turns Again.
Tide Turns. Several times during
the past two years, when the advortls- .
ing columns of this paper bave not
oeen patronized as they should, tbe
Lebanon Express has given us ilome
very unkind nuts. That paper reaches
us this week just half its former size,
being now a six column folio verv
short col imns. Besides that it filled
eight columns with old stale plates.
vommeiu is unnecessary. Browns
ville Times.
The Times speaks falsely when It
says that this paper gave them some
unkind cuts; also when it states that
we have out the paper to "just half Its
fprmer size," as the present size of the
Express Is considerably larger than
half its former size. And agalu the
Times makes a mis-statement by say
ing that our columns are "very short
columns" as they are standard
length. As to eight columns being
filled with "old stale plates," if we re
member rightly we have seen stories
printed in the Times, that were fully
as ancient as any matter we bave pub
lished, further "comment is unneces
sary," as the Times says.

Lebauon will bave an opportunity of
hearing one of the best noets. humor

the world has produced. The follow
ing is an extract from au exchange:
"The Colonel bos been an untlrinu-
traveler and has seen the wonders of
tbe world abroad, was a shin-wrecked
sailor at fifteen, and tbe commander
of his company in tbe late war at
eighteen ; is a graduate of law and an
experienced journalist and actor of fino
attainments, and it might not be out
of place to add that he is a Keeley
graduate."
Owing to the amount of expeuso in

small admission fee will be oharged of
