The nearer one gets to God the closer one gets to one' neighbor. The way to nuke tomorrow Utter tlian yesterday is to w ork today. It isn't the money that counts; it is the intent and purpose of the giver. The fact that there Is uo law agaiust it docs not always make it right. A man may buniKO much "midnight oil" that he has none left to oil the day's machinery.' The miu who starts out looking for trouble usu ally finds it just a'xmt to enter his own door. When a man begins to imagine that he "doesu'i look his age" it is a sign that he is growing old. The man who has no bushiest of his own is a mighty poor man to engage to attend to your business.

Kreewater Times: There is a little old measly dog that has been keeping us awake for the last few nights by his idiotic ki-yi-ing. We don't know who feeds the cur, but if he comes fooling around this office we are going to kick seven kinds of liver out of him. Several hundred employers of printers from states west of the Mississippi river met in Kansas City re' cently and took preliminary steps to fight the eight hour day, which the International Typographical union expects to put in force next January. " Officers of the UuUed Typothetae of America were present at the convention. The king, like Kmperor William, has publicly notified the officers of the army and navy that he will feyl just us much honored if they drink the health of their sovereign in water as in wine, and it is due to his social power that drunkenness has ceased to be fashionable as it was in England in the early part of the nineteenth century, when sobriety was considered bad form, and the expression, "drunk as a lord," was no mere figure of speech.

We are served up with the same old wail of "hard luck," "wait until we get started," "the umpire is to blame," and "after a team has lost for two or three years it takes time to pick up," this and other twaddle we are supposed to gulp down and accept as orthodox. The trouble, and all the trouble is, that Portland has no ball team, neither has it a manager. With the single exception of Van Buren it hasn' t a base runner they run bases like a flock of hearses drawn by spavined males. -The Portland giants, so-called, are an aggregation of lummoxes, too awkward to get out of their own way and with, little practical knowledge of the game. The management traded the only player they had iu 1894 (Beck) for a brush leaguer whose tout en scmble is a glaring advertisement for limberger ehcese If McCredie proposes to keep this bunch, he better try and break' into the Valley League, where he has a possible chance to make good.

TTV F-nlfT issue it has crown to Income one year old ar.d thitx I IV Ik itiiv with this number it passes ti e first mile ttone. The editor w mindful of the fact that without your assist ance and good-will his effort would have been in vain, therefore it is but just and natural that we return thanks to each and all for the loyal support given cs the past year aud liespeak for a continuance of the same treatment and consideration at your hands. It was no child's work to launch a fourth paper in a county of the population Cofunibia has, but the editor kuew the metal his patroas were made of and he knew that if he hewed to the line, let the chips fall where they may, "the jitojile were with him. And in this judgment he has been sustained. The Register today is the leading paper in the county. Its influence for good is felt from one end to the other, and is sought for. Its news columns contain the gist of the most important happenings from all sections of the county. It is a family newspaper in the broadest sense of the word and for this reason enters so many Columbia county homes. Its future is assured and its useful ness enlarged upon when we consider the increased facilities that have been added to in the way of equip ments to our plant. This has all been accomplished and made possible from the support and encourage-! merit given us by a generous public. So may we not look for a continuance at your hands, seeing our ability to serve you is so much better now than in the past? The Register is up-to-date and in its office are the fastest and largest presses type that enables us to print anything from a calling card to a full-sheet poster, enabling us to compete with Portland prices and in a first-lass workmanlike manner. So let us figure on your office printing call us up by phone or let us bid on your work. A trial order is solicited. The time has expired on all those names which were paid for but one year. We hope you will all renew and send us in your I at once, as e cannot afford to publish so good a paper on a credit system. When you are sending in your renewal, try and send in a new subscription. The Register is your paper help to roll it along. Mr. F'.ui;,Jiu last week's Ali-had one-fourth of a column about "Mr. Mitchell after more pie," in which he stated that Mitchell had a complete monopo- y of the clerk's and school superintendent's office, which is not true. But one thing Flagg fai'ed to state. Mitchell never did a job of work for the county that the price was not equal to or lower than Portland prices and much lower than the prices of Flagg for the same class of work furnished the Republican officials. And, say, Mitchell does, not draw a pension of $33 per month from the county as Plagg has done and is now doing. In last week's financial exhibit is an item of $150 to E. H. Flagg as president of Lewis and Clark dubs. There is no law for the allowance of this amount, hence it is a pure steal. Not even worthy of the name "graft." In no case has the coun ty clerk or school superintendent taken upon them selves the prerogative of giving notices to the papers where the law gives that privilege to the attorneys, For verification of this statement, look over the files of the Mist and see how many citations are signed by Clerk Henderson. One other thing: The assessor's notices and special road tax notices should, according to law, be published in the. paper nearest the lands affected. MR. MITCHELL, THE "SOCIALIST." Ve8poko of the man who issued a counterfeit Register last week aa a tramp About two months ago he came to our ollice and applied for work, and asked the foreman for 2o cents to get a meal. Comes pretty near tram p. Register. Mr. Murpliv denies havinst asked for any money, and even if he had done so, he is very fur from being a tramp. On the contrary, he is an industrious, sober, working printer. No man who is willing to work lor ins money deserves the epithet of "tramp." and Mr. Mitchell's socialist friends should give him a few lessons on this subject. Itisworthv ofremurk, however, that Mr Murphy cot neither the work nor the money; Mr Mitchell a sympathy for the poor seems to be only mouth-deep it never gets to his pocket-book. A man may be a tramp, and still be a gentleman. Perhaps we were a tittle hasty in calling Mr. Murphy a "tramp printer." But what we said then was not intended as a reflection on his character. We hope he he ss a gentleman and scholar as .well as a printer of wide experience and extensive travel. It is not the de sire to injure, but the right to protect the name "Reg ister" that caused us to speak as we did. Had . Mr. Murphy selected any other name for his paper there would have been no words between us. The Oregon Mist comes to the elefense of Sheriff White and says: , ' "Mr. Martin White, sheriff of Columbia cennty, frankly atatea that he has "no use for the lloulton paper." There are lots of people in Columbia county who have faith in Martin's judgment." - The verdict of the people at the next June elec tion may make a difference of opinion. Mr. White was elected to serve the people, npt the Republican party. 'He took out of the hands of the attorney the right to select the paper and usurped the right as conv pletely as could the Czar of Russia. i .
