As long as time shall last, human in terest in public marriages will not abate The degree of local interest in buc I i matters was put to a strong test on Wed nesday evening, Oct. 31st, when Mr. Wil burn Long, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Long, and Miss Lama M. Agee, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Agee, were firmly united in the holy bonds of matrimony at the Christian church in this city. The spacious auditorium was more than filled with interested friends and spectators. Tasteful decora tions profusely abounded about the chancel, made from combinations of autumn leaves, ivy, ferns, chrysanthe mums, wild grape and geraniums. At the foot of the center aisle stood au ever green arch, with a large bell pendant from its keystone. The sweet strains of Mendelssohn’s Bartholdi wedding march, performed by Mrs. Emma Barnhart, an nounced the appearance of the most in terested parties. They were attended by Esther Griesen and Lottie Barnhart as flower girls. The pastor entering from his study, with well-timed precision met the betrothed at the arch. The bride appeared resplendent and beautiful, dressed in rich white cashmere, trimmed with lace, with hair gainiture of white roses, and carrying a bouquet of white roses. The groom in black, looked as grooms always do—benign as a June morning. "Weare here this evening,” said the clergyman, “to solemniz.e one of the most beautiful ceremonies of God’s holy word. One in which not only the moral law of God’s word is obeyed, but oue in which God’s holy and divine law* is brought into harmony with the laws of the land. One, therefore, in which earthly ties are harmonized with heaven ly, one through which the golden chain of earthly relationship brings us into bonds unbroken, connecting generation with generation until the entire earth is to be brought into one great family.” Then followed the solemn promises, sealed with prayer. The affirmations were not heard all over the church, but were given distinctly and in a spirit of “I mean it.” The pastor then introduced Mr. and Mrs. Long to the audience, and extensive congratulations followed. Though all over speedily, it was a pleat ing experience for everyone present. Mr. and Mrs. Long repaired to the Agee home in Happy valley, but have furnished them a home in the Caldwell residence near the waterworks. The groom, born back in Johnson county, Kentucky, 21 years ago, has ever been a good boy, and his lovely bride is one of Oregon’s fairest native daughters. Suc cess to them.

Corns can't stay where it is used. It can’t fail, can’t hurt the toe; can’t do anything but take off corns. Jf you have corns now, next week you need have none. The remedy is different from others, better than others, and the cost is but 25 cents. ROGERS BROS.’ Pioneer Pharmacy. McMinnville, Oregon.

The works of religion and charity have everywhere been manifest Our country, through all its extent, has been blessed with abundant harvests. Labor and the great industries of the people hgve prospered beyond all prece dent. Our commerce has spread over the world. Our power and influence in the cause of freedom and enlightenment have extended over distant seas and lands. The lives of our official representatives and many of our people in China have been marvelously preserved. We have beefl generally exempt from pestilence and other great calamities, anil even the tragic visitation which overwhelmed the city of Galveston made evident the senti ments of sympathy and Christian charity by virtue of which we are one united people. Now, therefore, I, William McKinley, president of the United States, do hereby appoint and set apart Thursday, the 29th of November next, to be observed by all the people of the United States, at home or abroad, as a day of thanksgiving and praise to him who holds the nations in the hollow of his band. I recommend that they gather in their several places oj worship and devoutly give Him thanks for the prosperity wherewith He has en dowed us. for seedtime and harvest, for the valor, devotion aud humanity of our armies and navies, and for all His bene fits to us as individuals and as a nation; and that they humbly pray for the con tinuance of Hi« divine favor, for concord and amity with ojher uatious, and for righteousness and peace in all our ways. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. The Colonel and the Farmer. New York Sun. Colonel—My downtrodden friend, are you aware that the empire is ruining you? Fanner—Well, Colonel, I told Maria I’d go down town and buy her a set of empire furniture for the bedroom today, and I reckon ’twont quite ruin me. Colonel—But your liberty is in danger. Farmer—Not's long as I behave my self, and I always calculate to do that. Colonel—But, my friend, the trusts, with the money trust at their head, are beggaring you. Farmer—Well, they’ll be a long time doing it. I’m m the money trust myself now. Colonel—But surely you are afraid of the ravages of the octopus? Farmer—I don’t care a rap for no octo pus as long as the pesky grasshoppers keep out of the way. Colonel—But there’s the mortgage. Farmer—Yep, lent money on one yes terday. • Colonel—But surely you do not ap prove the retention of the Philippines. Farmer—Colonel, when I get hold of a good thing, I keep hold of it. When I get money enough to buy more land, I buy it. Colonel—But, my dear sir, would you put the man-made dollar above the God- made man? Farmer—No, but I'd put the man- made-dollar in the man-made bank. And I must get there before the bank shuts up. So you’ll have to excuse me, Colonel. Colonel—But my misguided friend, think of the declaration----- Farmer—How did you know that Bill Gibbiugs made one to my daughter, Elizy Ann, last night? Yep, and I’ve got to go and price pianers and things this afternoon. Goodbye. (Exit sing ing): “O, I like to see a five and I love to see a ten, So, ho, here we go for McKinley in again.’’ Mound Argument hr Gault- Bryan ought not to get a vote in this county if its citizens would consult their own interest. Were Bryan elected presi dent he would pull out of the Philippines, bring the army home, its equipment and with it comes our merchants and indus tries that are just naw building up. In that event Washington county will sell no more hay there, nor butter, nor flour. Continue McKinley and his policy and our dairies will have encouragement to justify expanding, we can »eed larger meadows, we can send our flour to the nearer market instead of to England, and thus save freight and insurance.

The other day Senator Ben Tillman, of South Carolina, stood before a crowd of Illinois farmers and said : “Now I’ll go after that full dinner pail.” “Hurrah for McKinley!” came from the outskirts of the audience. The orator wended: “You are asked to vote the republican ticket because you have got enough to eat. What is the inference? That enough to eat is all you deserve. When you have got a belly full you have got enough ac cording to the republican idea. Do they appeal to your reason? No! Do they appeal to your heart? No! To what do they appeal? The South Carolinian clasped his hands across bis paunch and grimaced The Illinois farmers laughed good-na turedly. "What afiimal do you know that has a greater affection for that part of h's anat omy than for any other?” asked the s-n- ator. "The hog. The republican party puts you on the level of the hog.” The farmers laughed again. They were amused. This sort of argument might do with poor whites in South Carolina. It did not go in southern Illinois. Tillmau had been sent into a demo cratic stronghold to dispel apathy and to arouse the party spirit. A few miles from where be entertained, aS set forth above, is a township which used to east one solitary republican vote. Eight years ago it astonished the county seat crowd by returning twenty-four republican votes. Four years ago it gave McKinley sixty three votes. The poll this year shows 127 will be cast for the republican ticket. That is the kind of a political revolution which is going on in southern Illinois.

Mrs. Elizabeth Wright was born in Rutherford county, Tenn., Sept. 12th, 1818, and died in this city on Wednes day, Oct. 3lst She moved to Jackson county, Mo., in 1832, where she wub married to Thos. M. Wright, in 1834. She crossed the plains to Oregon with an ox team iu 1847, and settled on a dona tion land claim near North Yamhill in 1848. Here her husband died in 1883. The widow resided on the claim until 1886, and then moved to McMinnville. She was the mother of 12 children, of whom nine are living—J. F. Wright, Woodburn ; Mrs. T. C. Bynum, Mrs. Don Hayes, B. F. Wright and George Wright of McMinnville; Mrs. B. F. I’eiry, Tilla mook; Mrs. John Dudley, North Yam bill; Mrs. A. J. Howell, Portland, aud Mrs. W. H. Boyd, Umatilla. The fu neral occurred yesterday at the Christian church in this city, with burud beside the grave of ber husband in MeBride cemetery, west of Carlton. All the liv ing children were present except J. F. Wright and Mrs. B. F. Perry. AMITY. Revival meetings are in progress at the Baptist church. Miss Leplia Hawley, who has been on the sick list, is now better. Ira Martin has sold his stock of cloth ing to a Sheridan merchant. The free show at the hall last Satur day night was very entertaining. A brother of Ira Osborne from South Dakota is here making him a visit. Mrs. Cook and children, who went to California some time ago, have returned to Amity. Amity is as well lighted a town for its size as there is anywhere, and our citi zens all think that it is money well spent. The basket social at the hall last Wed nesday night, given by the Epworth League, was a pleasant gathering, and a financial success. By this time next week we will know who is to be the next president, and thousands of people all over the country will be out of their misery. The two new gasoline lamps recently purchased were placed in position last Friday. This gives the town six lamps of this description, aud the light is very good. A portion of those hereabouts, who raised potatoes, took advantage of the good weather and have them out of the ground and under shelter, while others neglected to and will dig in the mud. NO. 46.

Wm O’Conner returned a few days ago from the southern part of the state. Last Sunday night he was out to church and went home at the usual hour. After being in bed a short time his mother, who was sleeping down stairs, heard a noise. She called out to -William up stairs, “What is making that noise as of someone moving about?” It wakened William, who lit a lamp and thought he saw a man moving for the stairway. He reached tor his Winchester and made for the stairway, he filed two shots in the direction of tile door going out below. All was soon quiet and u|x»u investiga tion it was found that the first bull went down the stairway, through the door and through the floor of the porch. Neither ball got the man simply because lie was not before the gun. It is supposed Wil liam had money in his pocket and some body wanted it. Don’t monkey with a Winchester. Columbus Mehool Nate«.
