The Cloverdale Courier, discussing the moral condition of Tillamook Count), bad this to mm ) last week : Public sentiment has been considerably aroused over the disagreement of the jury in the Nordstrom murder trial, ten being for murder in the first degree and two for murder,in the second degree. The plea of insanity whi raised and an Alienist was secured, which, with other expences. makes a trial of this kind very costly, however, no complaint can be in regard :o reasonable costs when we consider that everyone is entitled to a fair trial and innocent until proven guilty. But, when we take into con sideration the fact that Nordstrom made a sane, clean cut confession, and as far as those who came in touch with hirn could see, showed no signs whatever ol insanity, it seems that th« disagreement of the jury was nothing short of a trav ersity of justice and a reckless disregard of heaping upon an already tax ridden public the expense of another trial. The facts of the above trial coining as they do upon the heels of the late Hem bree murder trial and its dilatory and costly proceedure. and further, the fact that it wus impossible tn secure a jury that would convict during the late boot legging cases at Tillamook, causes the ayerage citizen to ask himself a number of questions One of which would be about as follows : Is it possible that a person may commit any crime be so de sires iu Tillamook county, with the as surance that with the aid of the proper talent he oin secury a jury that in nine cases out of .ten will secure for him absolute release or a mild penalty ? Tbe answer : lu the light of «event events it looks very much that way. Another question that naturally fol lows, is, what is the cause of the above conditions ? Is it because Tillamook county is devoid of that class of citizen ship that goes toward making a strong moral community ? In answer we would say we believe;.not. We do believe, however, that tbe citizens of our county that stand for the best are not properly aligned. We have many of the best in. tentioned people who are so engrossed in the strife for th« "Almighty dollar'' that they seem to feel that "it is every one for himself and the devil for us all,” and have no time for other su »¡cots that are so vital to the general public. Then there are some "wquld be’’ reformers who bv their very method of attack, using the most abusive tactics not only in regard to those w ho are ^openly vio luting th« law. hut upon those who may in the least degree differ with them, thereby engendering an unfriendly spirit where there should he unity and con certed action thwart everything they undertake in the way of moral reform. Or in other words . There has t»een the endeavor, to a certain extent, to do what Christ would have us do, but not the en deavor to use the Christ spirit in its ac complishment, consequently failure has been the result and a delapid tied moral front «be spectacle that confronts us. While tn<u who desire reform and the stability of the la w, at a rule, agree in the main ; or minor points they often differ, and it is this disagreeing on minor points and a continual haggling over little things that keep those who wish fora better condition of affairs from presenting u solid nml influential ti out to the lawless element. In the discussion of minor differences in any move for g«»<>.| it tausl be rem«in* I bcred that no one person "knows it all’’ and that one must l»e ready to listen to any advice which is given in th* right spirit by a neighbor, and after a subject has been well discussed let the best there is in it l>e accepted bv all and the tight be made accordingly. We believe there are enough high* minded people in Tillamook County, should they give the subject the con sideration it deserves, to present a most substantial moral sui»port to any move that may I* fur a be Her condition in tbe business nffmrs of the county and a Strict observance of the la«. While the proper alignment of the moral forces of , oar county would probably not produce any great result at the loginning, still* it must be conceded to by the only (bun-1 dation noon which a Iretter condition and higher state of affairs can be built Net Werth It. A young rain. after tils banns hat! been twice announce.!, called upon th- bu y t1 nr early one morning. II. wanted to have u private word with him about the banns. "Well.” said the vicar, "what 1.M wrong?” "Oh. it's the girl's name.” “nasu't It been given correctly?” "Oh, yes, it's correct enough, but 1 want you to put another girl's usirn for the third calling. I’ve changed m; mind and would rather marry Mar; ’Arrl3 Instead of Sarah Jenkins." The vicar lectured the youth upon his fickleness and told him If he want ed any alteration ft would bo iKv-oe»ar< to make a fresh start and have the banns published afresh. “What, and pay another shilling?'' gasped the lover. “CertnUily," replied the vicar. "Well, in that ease you had better let It be ns it Is. nnd I'll marry my first love.”—Pearson's Weekly. Enlivantd Hi» Sermon. A mlnl iter of Crosinl. hael. lu Fife, frequently talked from the pulpit to Ills boarers with amusing and luAced irreverent familiarity. Expounding a passage from Exidus one day. he pro cccded thus: " ’And the Lord said unto Moses’—sneck that door! I'm thinking if ye had to sit beside the door yersel’ ye wadua be sae ready leaving IX open. It was Just beside that door that Ye dam Tamaon, the bellman, got hi. death o' cauld. and I’m sure, hones: man. he dldna let it stay muckle open ‘And the Lord Bald unto Muses’—I ae> n man a«cuth the laft wT his UU ik I'm sure, man, ye're dear o' tke sough o' that door there.

Buck Taylor, the showman, was a great friend of Captain William O'Neill, the rough rider who was killed at I.as Gunslums. Cuba. In the SjMLutsb American war. O'Neill was sheriff of Tucson, Arlr... when Taylor became ac quainted with him, nnd on more than one occasion the cowboy rendered the easterner a service. "Did O'Neill deserve the ropatatlou he held for nerve?" Taylor was once asked. "Well," he said and then hesitated, ns if careful to choose the right words. “I don't think there was anything (bat Bucky O'Neill was afraid of. Once he went Into a den where ten of the pals of a murderer and train robber he was after were gathered, laid his hand on the man's shoulder ntid walked him out. He had not a friend or ally within sight or hearing. Was that nerve?" She Had Tested th* Oyster. Dora, the pet of the household, was very fond of oysters, and after eating her lunch of oysters and crackers she thought of her dear mother busy at her sewing machine. She selected n nice large oyster, put It lu a plate and car ried It to her mother, who. pleased with her little daughter's tbougbtful- ness, ate the oyster and said: "It is most as good as my little girlie.” “Yes," answered Dorn. "I know It is goed ’enuse 1 licked It all the way from the kitchen.”—Delineator. A Way to Wealth. Vpon one occasion the late Earl Pou- lett. who. by the way. was a great si>endtbrlft. was paying his physician and on banding the medical geutleman 400 guineas In gold asked him If be knew how to grow rich. The doctor replied In the negative, and the earl advised hint never to pay an account by check, but always In coin, "for." he added, "the more you look at your tuoney the lesa Inclined you will b* to part with It." T. BO’iTS, A ttor N ey - at -L ï A R*al John Do*. "There goes a man who would be Justified in changing bl* name.” said the city salesman. “His name is real ly Doe, and John in the bargain—John Doe. Moreover, he has a sister Jane. I wonder what kind of joke their par ents were trying to perpetrate on those helpless mortals. Doe as a surname was bad enough without ridding to the offense by tacking on John and Jane. When I first met John Doe I didn’t take his name seriously. I thought the man who Introduced us was en- Joying a little pleasantry at my ex- jteuse or maybe at the expense of John Doe. I smiled. John Doe did not smile. “ 'You don’t believe It.’ he said, ‘but unfortunately it is true. I am the fa Sails from Tillamook to Portland every Friday. mous Doe.'

The horsemastershlp of the Moers is primitive and entirely successful. A Mocr never walks when he can ride and never by any chance gets off to ease his beast. How a Moorish pony would Lave chuckled at the weary walks enforced on tired men by well meaning cavalry colonels in South Af rica! He would have said to himself: “I don’t think much of animals that can’t carry fifteen stone fifteen hours a day. I must be a really superior kind of beast." The Moorish (and Goumler) horse always spends his nights In the open. He is never groomed or clip ped. Ills youth Is passed wandering untended over the vast fields. When in work he gets all the barley he wants at night and a drink before his feed in the evening. From 7 a. m. to 7 p. m. he expects to work and to work hard without bite or sup. Ills saddle Is a wooden tree superimposed on at least half a dozen folded blankets, the thickness of which often reaches six Inches, and he never gets a sore back. —London Spectator. Ha Cot th* Ticket. “Seamen’s return" tickets are Issued by most British railway* at seaport towws to sailors at reduced rates. A rather well groomed young man de manded one to Birmingham; the book ing clerk at Hull demurred. " ‘Heamen's returns' are only Issued to sailors," be snapped. “Well, I’m a sailor,” was the reply. “I have only your word for that,” •aid the clerk. “How am I to know it is correct?” “How ar* you to know?” came the answer. "Why, you leather necked, swivel eyed son of a sea cook. If you feel my starboard boom running foul of your headlights you’ll know I’ve been doing more than sit on a stool bleating all my life, and you’ll haul I d your Jaw tackle a bit” “Give him the ticket," said the pas senger superintendent, who had over heard the dialogue; "he's a sailor, right enough."—London Scraps. Seeing and Thinking. Most people see an object when they think of IL They can see before their eyes a geometrical drawing or the fig ures on a chessboard when they think of them. In order to think at all most men make use of Images, though they may be of different kinds. Thus one man when he thinks of “Italy" sees Just the printed word; another sees the country's outline on a map; nnotber may see the country spread out before blm, with its villages and towns. Psychologists are beginning to classify the different aids or images of which men make use. Some, for example, hear the words of their thought witbin themselves; others read them, as If the words were written generally In black on a white ground.—London Post. I). L. SIIRDDE. Tillamook, Ore.
