school Meeting.
JUSTICE.

The apnaal school meeting in this district
will be held at the Court House next Mon
day evening, and it behooyes every citizen to
attend, as matters OF great Importance will
be brought up at that time. 1t is well
known fact that at present our school houses
cannot accommodate all the pupils who are
entitled to admittance, and some arrange
ments must be made to enlarge their capaci-
ty. Some propose that additions be built to
our school houses, while others advocate the
plan of selling all property belonging to the
district and buying block and putting up a
building sufficiently large to accommodate
all. These and several other important
questions are to be decided next Monday
evening, and we advise that there be a gen.
eral turnout of our citizsns.

A select school.

Rev. P. A. Moses, pastor of the NJ. K.
Church, South, viii open out select school
at his residence next door to Eli Carter 8
next Monday morning. and as the number
Of pupils is to be limited to twenty, those
wishing their children to attend will do well
to state the fact as sooH as possible. Rev.
Moses has during lis entire life been engaged
in educating the young, and we know of no
individual who is recommended higher than
he has been by the citizens of the different
communities in which he has taught. He is
graduate of Randolph College, Virginia,
where he received the degrees of A. B. and
A. NJ, and has filed the position of Presi-
dent of one or two colleges in. Arkansas
Outside of his duties as pastor of st. Panrs
Church he has time to teach a small school,
and we think those who patroni2e him will
never regret it.

A Nea EraBeh Of Industry.

We wish TO call the attention OF our read.
ers to the fact that a now branch of industry
has been established in this city. We refer
to the coffee and spice establishment recent
ly opened out in one Of Mrs. CheadIe's build
ings by an enterprising Frenchman named
Clement EsmOnin. He has brought on a
large stock of coffees and spices, and grinda
each article and puts it up himself, and war
rants that no adulteration is practiced. His
prices are SO low that he certainly will do a
good business. Java coffee, that retailg in
our city at 81 lbs to the dollar, he roasts
beautifully, gEinds and puts up in 2-lb air
tight cans, for Is cents, and having tasted
it we know it is pure. This /, specimen
of his prices, and or readers would do well
to Gall arnpRd and see him. Watty Mon.
teith is clerk of the establishment, and is
very obliging.

Editor Democrat:
1t was my intention to have attended the
session OF the State Temperance Alliance in
your city last week, and now wish that |
had, for hear that Mr. J. 2. Irvine. Of rhis
city, IN speech on Wednesday evening of
last week, made some statements in regard
to this part Of the country which were erron-
oas to say the least, ,AHd would have liked 70
have had the opportunity of correcting him.
viii try to make the correction now, al
though it will probably not reach the eyes Of
all those who heard Mr.. Irvine's statement.
When making his speech before the Ali.
ance have been told that Jesse said there
were only three schools in the Forks Of the
Santiam, and that this state of circumstances
was caused by intemperance Now this
know to be false, and l will hazard the state
ment that we have had at least Ten schools
during the past winter, and 1 think if any
one should take the trouble TO interview our
County School Superintendent on this cues.
tion he could officially testify to this number.
know that liquor in large quantities is
drank in this part of the county, and that if
the money which is spent for it were set
aside for educational purposes we could have
more schools, and their sessions would be
longer, but do not like to see any one give
US worse name than we are entitled to. 1t
is shame and a disgrace for any one to make
the statement that we have more saloons
than schools, for there is not word of truth
in it, and am very sorry that Mr.. Irvine
talked in that way before the Alliance, for
the delegates will peddle out the statement
from one end of the State to the other.

"whcre Is My BOY Tonight"

DIR. Watts asked this question at the ALI
auce last week, and Dave Froman asked it
at the Festival last Friday night, and the
conhundrum stumped everybody. Well,
now, if you want our opinisn on that subject
we can give it in a very few words. 1t is
very likely that the urchin is down at blain's
looking at some of those nice suits Of boys
clothing, and it is your duty as parent to
supply him with suit as soon as possible, so
that he will be as well dressed as the rest of
the fsmily and will not be ashamed to stay
at home at night when you have company.

LITTLE DARLING,

The little darling Of our home.
The pet lamb Of the fold,
The little one who hlled Otr hearts
With love and joy untold,
The little dlmpled face and form
That nestled at oar side
Is gone, and we are lonely now
Since little darling died.
No moro ven hear the merry laugh
That rang 50 clear aud sweet,
No more we'll hear the music of
Her little dancing feet,
No moro wen watch with throbbing hearts
Our sroasnre and our pride,
Our poor hearts throb with anguish now
Since little darling died,
The little pillow where she laid
Her pretty head to rust,
The tiny shoes she used to wear.
The doll her hands carossrd.
The curl Of hair. the IiItlo clothes,
Aro laid with care aside,
They're sacred relics to us now.
Since little darling died.
oh, precious little angel child,
You are with Jesus now.
A crown Of everlasting Hight
Is resting ON your brow
Aud whom We come be watching,
Aud the great gate open wide.
Wen know you, darling, Are the same
Sweet little one that died.
