For ConsuI-RordweII GIo,e.

Actors are not often heard of as applicants for
Office. It appears that the friends of Florence are
in earnest in pushing him fora consulshIp in Eng
land. Why not? Authors, editors and artists
have often been selected for consulships and mis-
sions abroad, not so much for any special adapta-
ton for that service as in recognition of their pro-
fessions and their excellence In them. We all re-
iolce that Hawthorne was made consul at Liver

A MASQUERADE.

The great world held a fancy ball,
The guests were masked and merry;
with light and music frollc, nun,
Hours tripped with minutes CHEEKY.
The lancers led. with airy tread,
And Fashion danced with Folly,
With twinkling feet ana graces sweet
To make each Bmre Jolly.
Time wNltzed the sehottische well with Age
The music seemed TO culver
A quavcr through double bar
lake ripples on Lifc's river.
Hope bowed 10 Love, and high above
Those minor notes seemed ringing
The pcalnF lays Of happy days,
Bkc fairy voices singing.
Night aoated through plain quAdrilie,
The partner. graceful, boamy,
or Morpheus, with heavy eyes,
To music slow and dreamy.
While Morning skipped, and Dewdrop tripped
The hve-step waltz, in measure,
with ringing notes and painting threats,
A. Laughter whiried with Pleasure
The Snowflake gave a fancy dance
With lghtsome grace most winning,
That put the feather fay to shame,
Aud set tho music spinning.
A stately dame, they called her Fame,
The minuet was tracing
With Iabor's feet. In even beat
Beside her Footsteps pacing.
The MoonbeArns the Virginia reel
Were dancing with the Bulows
While Pan, the piper. played the tune
Upon the watsr.vill0ws.
And last ofall the dancing hall,
With music gay 10 back H.,
Seemed made Of glass, where skipped IN mdisc,
The whole crowd In the racquet.

Editor Democrat:
Seeing your request for news from
the various parts Of the country, we
place the following items at your dis
posAl:
Hay harvest is nearing q close. The
crop is light. Hay is selling briskly at
S8 per ton in the field. Wheat and
oats sown last spring viii fall far short
Of an average crop. Fall grain, it is
thought, will yield we'll.
Several families nre at Cedar Flat
picking Glackberries, which are plenti.
ful in those regions.
Happy Heme school, under the di-
rect.on Of Mr.. A. y. Nc Clung, closed
with picnic on The 22nd. Although
in the midst ofhay-harvest, nearl, one
hundred persons assembled. The fore
noon was spent in social chat. At noon,
the ladies served a basket dinner,
which to say the least, was excellent,
and fully established reputation for
them as the best Of cooks. After din
ner the school exercises consisting OF
recitations, dialogues, ETC., were rem.
dered in manner creditable tc both
teacher and pupils. Addresses were
then made by Messrs +. M. Daniels,
Jacob Newman, J. r. South, and 9TH
ers, all Of whose remarks were very
appropriate. M. M. johnson, with
his violin, furnished music for the oc.
casion. Mr.. j. though blind, is an
excellent violinist. The affair was
most enjoyable; and the joy that beam.
ed from every countenance, as the
crowd dispersed, showed that all wore
well pleased with the day, and
that the place justly deserves tho name
Of Happy Home.

OREGON SHORT LIAE-

II the present active work on the
Oregon Short Line Railway Is kep'
up, It win not DO long until Boise
City Is connected by rail- with Gran-
ger, q station on the Union Pacific
Railroad, situated in the southwest
corner of Wyoming Territory. Al
ready nearly 200 miles OF track has
been laid, and many OF the bridges
put In place, and the work Of track
laying IL progressing at the rate Of
one mile per day.
Just where tho western terminus
Of this road will be, we know not, but
that the road will at no distant day
reach Baker CITY, or some other town
In Eastern Oregon Is assured. We.
arc Informed that Hon. d. P. Thomp-
SON of Portland is Vice President of
the road and Ellis G. Hughs Of the
same place, its attorney In this State
One OF these gentlemen In converse
tion with our informant, assured him
that there was no doubt but that the
road would be pushed to an early
completion, and that the prime
movers in the matter were men Of
undoubted means and Integrity.
The people OF this valley are watch
ing the progress Of this Oregon Short
Line with increasing interest as It
nears the State line, and are begin
ming TO hope that IL will eventually
be means ofloosing the hold Of that
the Willard CROWD have on the ship
ping interests of the State. The
managers of the road will probably
extend the road to the Willamette
Valley, and thus open up direct CON-
petition with the Northern Pacific.
1t seems little strange that the
"only daily" does not furnish its read
ers with late news concerning the
progress of the Short Line. It's
silence is a good indication that the
monopoly organ is afraid that his new
enterprise is underline management OF
aen who mean business and who
are able to, and dare compete with
the magnates Of the Northern Pacific.
We venture the prediction that In
less than three years the Oregon
Short Line and the Oregon Pacific
will connect at some point in the
willamette Valley. Then the pro-
ducers will no doubt find some re-
lief from the tremendous burdens
now heapeu upon them by the trans
pertation company that now has
them in its oppressive grasp.
