READY FOR REST.
There are only twenty-four houn of
measured time In a day. The 8,600
leoonda of an hour, are the smal
lest divisions of tls time. The days of
the Idler stretch away Into long and
dreary periods, that In the silently
spoken truth of hit own heart, make
bit life a barren desert of ever shifting
sands,
Not to with that one whose hands
are tlways ready to take hold of any
thing that needs lifltlng up, whose
mind, receiving the first truth in life,
It eager and anxlous to obtain the sec
ond, and whose heart overflow! with
that love and sympathv which It con
oerned for the good of hit fellow cer
tainly, such unselfish interest becomes
the oil oj gladrwse In the hearts of,
thoie to whom It Is apparent.
It was our privilege to attend the
dosing of our public school on last Fri
day afternoon.
To say that we were agreeably sur
prised and very much pleased, with
the array of school work, as a goodly
Dumber of the patrons aud friends
viewed aud reviewed it, in the differ
ent departments, grades and sections,
does not express, to those who did not
see It, toe slightest Idea of its beauty.
The carefulness and precision with
our boys aud girls applied the princ l
pies they have mastered, during the
term of school just closed, was every
where to be teen; whether in solution
of problems aud coustrcution of dia
grams, or the analyse! of sentences
and the application of what they had
been taught in the decorative arts.
The liigonious aud deftly formed
models of every conceivable shape,
size and material, gave evidence of the
patient and careful training whioh
these orderly aud well behaved pupils
have received from the hearts and
hands nf the earnest and able corps o,
instructors that have labored so hero
ically for the advancement of each and
every student
May every boy and girl who has
had the stamina to stay in school until
It dosed, hold dear the memory of the
man who determined from the begin
ning of bis work, to make this the
most successful school the pupile ever
attended; and may the boya who have
been relegated to their proper sphere,
because of uumanlv conduct, ever re
member that they have irrevocably
lost, for the past term, the assistance of
a friend whose aim was to teach them
how to improve every passing mom
ent of that time now gone forever.
We believe a uew Interest has been
aroused in the citizens of Lebanon for
the higher standard of through work
In our Public School; aud we sincerely
hope that it will be mautaiiied by our.
Board of Education doing its very best'
to obtain the best talent iu every par
ticular. We regret very much that we can
not again have the services of our
worthy principal, but since our loss
mutt be bit gain, we can only say
peace be with him, who hag shown
himself our friend aud the tried friend
of our children. H

Schoolteacher Convicted.
A young mau named Herman, who
hat been teaching a school near Al
meda, Whitman county, was tried
Monday for whlppiug a 18-year-old
boy, Alva Wes', too bard, even strik
ing him over the head with a stick,
The whole neighborhood turned out,
aud, while the twelve good aud true
men were weighing the evidence in
the courtroom, twelve equally good
and true were getting Inebriated and
enjoying a noisy rough-aud-turnble
fight outside. The teacher was con
victed and fined, aud the cause of good
order was vindicated.
Where are you going, my pretty
Maul? To the summer school at San
tiam academy, sir, she said. I am go
ing to see when the school Is to begin,
(low long It will continue lu session,
and what the tuition will be. I shall
see that the announcement it put in
the Lebanon Expbkss next week, for
we are expecting a large attendance, a
good school, and a real nice school eu
entertalimient by us "little folks" at
the end ot the term. Oh, I see, said
the gentleman, aud he hastened home
with the newt.

LEBANON'S GRLAT DAY.
Congressman Siblej; And Gen, Wamef
Address Thousands. Non Political
Mass-Meeting. Many Citiet
Ask For, But Lebanon,
Won The prize.
. Of all the champions of silver In tbe
last lamented congress, Hon. Joseph
C Sibley of Pennsylvania, strndt today
at tbe great champion of the white
metal. Of those not in office, General
A. J. Warner of Ohio, stands first.
These two gentlemen are making a
tour of the United States in the inter
est of lil-metalism. They addressed
large audience in San Francisco, in
tending to skip Oregon, in the hurry
of their tour. Lebanon, always alive,
and never backward, In asklug for
what she wants, telegraphed to these
gentlemen courteous and presslug In
vltat.ons to stop with us a day and ad.
dr.ss the waiting multitude. These
obliging gentlemen came, saw aud
conquered.
Hon. M. A. Miller, our talented
mayor, met the distinguished guests In
Aibany, aud escorted them to the city,
where they were met ky a large con
course of ladies and gentlemen, with
our fine hand, and taken to the St.
Charles hotel. For several hours tbe
citizens of tbe county were introduced
to, and were charmed by these pleasaut
visitors.
Visits were made to the paper mill,
which was much admired, aud to
other points of interest. By oue o'clock
the marshal of the day, Hon. C. B.
Montague, mounted his war-etead, and
with banners flying and with martial
music by the Lebanon and Sodavllle
bands, soon escorted the destingulshed
visiters iu carrages to the shaded
grounds of the Santiam academy, to
which place bad come three thousaud
of our population, all anxious to hear
and see tbe two most distinguished
bi-meialisls of the day. The object of
the meeting was stated by the presi
dent of the day, Mr. Montague. Mr.
Miller Introduced Mr. Hi 1 bey in an elo
quent speech and tbe meeting respon
ded with prolonged cheers, that
brought forth a very feeling response
from Mr. Sibley.
General Warner was afterward in
troduced by Mr. Montague. Tbe in
troduction and tbe response were re
ceived with merited applause. Tbe
day will long be remembered by our
city. ' Democrats, republicans, popu
lists, probhibitmsi and woman suffer
agist, white aud 'lack, old and young,
regardless of politics, religion, race,
color 'or previous condition of servi
tude, all with one accord worked for
tbe glorification of Lebanon and tbe
entertainment of the distinguished
guests.
Many interesting arguments, a few
appropriate anecdotes, aud multiplied
statistics were given by the speakers.
Tbe hack-bone of the silverltes didn't
need strengthening, or they would
have been. The ranks of the republi
cans furnished many recruits; tbe
democrats, like the poor widow lu the
bible, gave of their mite, and now a
democratic is a scarce article; tnejpopu.
litt are tottering aud will likely tur-
enderthe tenets of tbe Omaha plat
form and follow tbe new Moses
through the wilderness, under the bi-
miialic banner of gold and silver. All
old parties are back numbers. The
principles of Jefferson and Cleveland,
of Lincoln and Garfield, of Mrs. Lease
ai.d Mr Pflfler, are things of the past,
All are now united by a standing vote
aud pledged to Bi-metolisuj, with Mr,
6ibley's chances for the presidency
