benutlfui and attractive. Snow white
and of a flno Size and a gentle dis
position, all kinds of things might
havo happened to Peter. 3oon after
the nd. appeared tho lady Was called
up over tho phono and Bomo one
started to toll about a cat when
tho person broke down laughing and
hung rap the phone. The othor evon
Inn Peter walked Into thd houso as
big as llfo and was as sleek and fat
ns If ho had been living at a hotol;
Thore was great ropolcing and the
tear i that had been shed by his little
mistress wero turned In rojolclng.
The wrltor hns forgotten what ho
started to say but It looks very much
as If somo lovor of cats had enter
tained Peter nt her houso and he
liked It so well that ho did not wlslv
to come honfo. Noxt will be a travel
ing library of cats.
We nlway3 llkoto see any man bet
ter himself, and yet we do not know
whether H. D. Gibson, a son of our
friend, J. It. Gibson of Liberty, has
bettored hlinself or not. Ho hns just
sold his farm on Prospect hill ol
169, acres to Ed. Hartley, formerly
of this city. His Innd cornor3 on
tho Tllmon Ford farm, and is one of
tho BigJitllest plnccs In the county
""ospect Hill commands a view of
flvo counties on a clear day Polk,
Yamhill, Linn, Marlon and Honton.
When It is very clear you can Beo ton
snow mountains nnd even look Into
Washington county and Clnckamas
county. Mr.' Gibson farmed up on
thnt hill, so long, ho got kind of tired
of It nnd wnnted to get onto somo
bottom land. Ho has some flno dairy
rows and will now try to hold 40
acres of land sultnblo for dairying,
He If a good careful farmer and Wo
wish him luck In hie charge, but wo
believe ho has lot go of somo valu
ab'e land, nnd If tho electric lino Is
extended out that way It will bo
ronin Btlll more vnlunblo. Wo look
for all that country to bo cut up Into
fruit trnct8 porno day nnd dotted
with suburban residences. Such
changes nro going to bo mado in
thpo day of nil-wool and a yard
wide prosperity.
Tho United States linn appointed
a commission to liiffltl o Into tho re
lation nnd condition of tho farmer
and IiIb hired man. TIiIb commission
is Composed of otnn of the big col
lege presidents and Is no doubt In'J
i r
tended to be an useful and 'honest
'(undertaking. A lost list of questions
I Is sent us to givo information about
I how tho farmers and tholr hired help
arof getting nlong out this way,
whether they treat theni right, how
mnny hours they work thorn, what
they feed them, whothe,r thoy glvd
them books to rend and a chauco to
tnko a bath, and tho dnlly papers, etc.
Wo returned tho blank with some
protty plain cussing In 'queen's Eng-
ilsh, na wo do not regard It any of
tho government's business to iuvestl
gato such affairs. These endless
commissions nnd investigations make
us tired. Thoy all havo a graft con
nected with them hllalutln bb thoy
appear. Old Tiiomns jonorson nnd
a level head and when ho generally
advocated that tho government mind
Its own business and lot tho cltlzons
nlono as much as possible ho was
lbout right. That commission ought
to resign and go to work for a living
at some honest business. Tho farm
er nnd his hired man aro getting
along tolornbln well, nnd do not need
any high Balarled commissioners to
protect them against each othor.
