A school Girls Folly.

1t is the old story. Rnt the
alarm bell repeats again and again
its note of warning, therefore we
re-tell it.
She was the daughter of q we'll
TODD farmer, and schoolgirl of
fourteen. He was a youth of
twenty-five, desipated, but fascina-
ting. They met, and though he
was almost stranger, she invited
him to her 'old Kentucky home.'
lie called once, and was told by
the father, who understood him,
not to call again. But she though
warned, would meet him clandes-
timely, again and again.
She WAS full of romance, and he
Of subtilty. Deaf to her fathers
warning and blind to the you ng
mans dissipation, she consented
to elope with him. They ran
away and were married.
In the months Fleming, for that
was the husbands name, grew
tired of his girl-wife. She knew
not, for her eyes were closed by
her love. But one night she
awoke to the fact she had married
a brute, who hated her. He came
home maddened with drink, and
struck her with Ratchet. Even
then she refused to listen to her
fathers urgent request for her to
return to her old home.
Neglected, insulted, beaten, she
lived with the british man till he
abandoned her. One day she read
his name among the list of killed
on board steamboat, whose boil
er had exploded. Several years
passed and few months since she
was married again-this time to a
worthy man.
One might've or three weeks ago,
a policeman called at the house
TO arrest her on charge of bigamy
She then learned that Fleming
was alive, and, true to his british
instincts, had sworn out the war
rant. When arraigned in the pc.
lice court, the next morning Flem-
ing failed 10 appear, aud she was
discharged,
May she who reads see the
moral of this sad story? The
schoolgirls folly, the wiie's shame
and grief, they are seen. But more
distinct than these may be read
the terrible penalty which follow:
the infatuation that despises the
counsel Of father, aud surrender.
TO the fascination of a dissipated
youth.

Com nlercial Outlook

1t is apparent to the new CONNER
and much more 40 to the frequent visi-
tor who comes to Lewiston, the fact
that our people are stirring about, de-
termined to make of this city bust
ness center Warehouses have recent
ly been constructed and more are be-
ing built. Some Of the merchants
have brought up the best quality of
goods that has ever been brought to
this city and are prepared to sell them
at Portland prices. This season dwell,
ing houses are being constructed on =
plan indicating spaciousness, comfort
and durability, foreshowin. that those
who have capital are desirous Of loca-
ting in thi' city permanently. New
business houses have lately been con-
s,ructed that arc not only an ornament
to the city but are convenient business
places. Everybody seems more en-.
couragin. and determined to 80 ahead.
The great improvement to the city
and to local residents, is the widening
and deepening Of the Brearly ditch.
This will give plenty Of water to citi
zens for irrigatng purposes and will
enable both mills to keep in operation
probably the whole year, creating a
demand for wheat and encouraging the
farmer trade to this city. On the
whole the outlook for the prosperity
Of Lewiston is indeed Aattering.

in connection with the recent ap.
pointments made to ill vacancies

upon tho President and made known
his request. "You see Mr. President,

claim, "his father is . distinguished

be completed by the first of January
1883, 100 will be finished by next
October, 30 more by April 1881, and
the rest within the time specified in
the contract. The company will
then have ll4o miles of road, and
expects in few years to have only
$4,000 of mortgage debt, and $20,.

capitalized cost of the road. More

PUGET SOUND ARGUS.

The wheat crop Of 1880 is estima'
ted at 4S0,000,000 bushels. or this
enormous quantity California and
Minnesota will produce about one
fifth. The crop of Minnesota is va.
riously estimated at from 100000
to 100000 bushels, and that of
California at from 100000 to 30,
100000. The two together will cas-
lily aggregate 9o,000,000. These are
now the great wheat growing states
of the Union. Kansas, Illinois and
Iowa produce greater quantity OF
grain, but it is Of a more general
character, md includes more corn
than. wheat. The tremendous devel-
opment Of Dakota, Oregon and
Washington, and the wheat growing
capacities OF these sections, which
vastly exceed those of either Cali.
forn;a or Minnesota, lead to the i'm.
preston that within ten years, and
possibly within FIVE, the wonderful
wheat production Of these two states
will be surpassed by the Webfoot
State and the two Territories named.
The country through which extends
the route Of the Northern Pacific
Railroad is undoubtedly the most
remarkable wheat producing region
Of the world. .

The election in Maine is so close
that only the official count in Janu-
ary can determine who has the most
votes for governor. 1t is probable
that the legislature will have to elect
and as it is largely Republican in
both branches Maine will most likely
have Republican governor again
next year. There will be no fusion
on the electoral ticket as the green.
hackers will support their own can.
didate, and in November Maine is

The Maine election shows that the
Republicans have fully held their
own, and more. For two years they
have failed to carry the state, in
1878 falling 1900 short. In 1879
they fell nearly 1000 short. Now
they are within 200 votes of a ma.
jority. They have the Legislature,
and they have yet all the congress
men they elected two years ago.
The Democratic Greenback coalition
is already broken up, which leaves
the Republicans an unchallenged

Weaver, Greenback candi-
date, in all his speeches denounces
che frauds he witnessed in the south.
AT Portland, Maine, when he began
on this theme, some Of the leading
Democrats on the-stags arose to go
out. Turning to them he said: "My
Democratic friends, do hear the
truth, a simple truth you should all
recognize. Do you think those men
in the south who chased negroes
with bloodhounds think it wrong to
keep negroes from voting by force?
That's the condition there. If the

fair count it would have 10000 ma.
