Dear Hattie, this glad festal day
Calls up to mind from memory's hoardH
Ten years ago, when friends this way
Proclaimed, julius. your welded lord.
We did not pledge SO long lease
Oflove and Joy, your destined fate;
Though married bliss and heaven born peace
We knew full well would bless your mate"
Rejoiced we say, the merry ring
OF friends who saw your gladstone start,
Unbroken keeps; o memory, bring
Rich JOY and blessing to your heart.
1.-THE years. tits God alone can give;
And solemn must the questions be.
How long together We shall live?
Who shall your silver wedding ?"
with Heaven we'll let the secret rest
Happy, if with assurance calm
We wait, each one-to be guest
At the great wedding of the Lamb"

the Office of lister is unpopular in Brad
ford. This is not at all strange to those
people know how matters have been
handled in Bradford for the past fcw
years. Real estate owners are paying
double taxes. owing to the management
Of a knoUing lister of last year. They
knew Just enough this year to keep out Of
the office. We hope there can three
honest men be found In town that will
return an honest list for once in twenty
years, not let this man 90 with a very
small list because he will vote for the
party and double the other mans list
because he don't vote with their party.

THERE MUST BE A MISTAKE.

On the 18th, the Walla Walla Union
says: "Colonel d. W. Hitchcock, gen
eral agent of the Urion Pacific in San
Francisco, who returned from the east
recently, states that grading on the Orc
gon Short Line is completed to within IN
easy distance of Baker City, and track
laying is going on as rapidly as possible.
Material is being hauled over the Union
Pacific and distributing along the line
of the road, 50 that little delay is expert
enced in making Roadway. Arrange
ments were recently made by which Pull

the road, run from Omaha to Portland

THE CLEARWATER FRONT.

There has been gross neglect in suf-
fering the waters of the Clearwater to
wash away the bank on the Lewiston side
during a few years past, when compar-
atively small sum of money expended ju-
dioiously would have preserved it uninjur-
ed. Several hundred feet have now been
washed away down to the gravel, and
even an entire street that ran along the
bank is gone and two or three buildings
that stood on the north side have been
undermined and tipped over into the
stream at high water, leaving at low water
wide gravel bar several feet below the
street. We suggest that the authorities
take this matter in hand and, rs far as
possible, repair the bank along the front
Of the city before another high water and
protect it against further loss of the front
Of the city. Our city front along the
Clearwater is too valuable to be wasted in
this manner, and every foot Of it will be
required as the city becomes Of CONNER
cial Importance. Either dispose Of this
front to private parties who will protect
it, or let the city itself protect it and
make it valuable and safe from the raya-
ges Of the river.

EVILS OF GOSSIP,

Can the evil wrought by gossiping be
estimated? We think not. A wise wo-
man can scarcely say too little in com
pany if the conversation trenches in the
least on scandal Many social, noble
minded woman has been oblidfed to
withdraw herself from neighborhood in
timacy which would have been more
pleasant otherwise, because her remarks
are returned by some idle tale-bearer, so
perverted as to make her doubt the exist
ence Of genuine friendship, and accept
loneliness for the sake Of the safety it
brougt. You say We must talk "about
something" Yes, and through that very
fact, we see remedy for the evil, to so
thoroughly interest ourselves in other
and better things that find no space to
spare for our ncighbors' affairs. Let us
talk Of our homes our house plants, our
books, our babies. Let US teach our
eyes to find beauty everywhere, while We
blind them by constant watchfulness to

stances cast the first stone. Then, if an
erring neighbor goes down, you cannot
blame yourself for assisting the down

WHAT 10 THE NATTER9

One or two telegfSMS md letter of
important instructions, and an express
package Of surveyors material sent from
Omaha to the chief of the location of the
o. s. L., have been delayed, lost, mis-
sent, or destroyed, either by accident or
design, and have never reached their des-
tination at Lewiston. 1t is very damag
ing to the movement of the surveyors, as
they have been lying here on expense
for many days waiting for those instruc-
tons. kilograms of their having been
sent have been received here, but no tel
egraph instructions by telegram or letter
have yet come to hand. Over route as
important and as much used as between
here and Omaha, messages ought never to
be delayed more than one day. There
must be screw loose in the
telegraph, mail and express machinery
somewhere, and the company will be
likely to ferret the matter out, if it be
among the possibilities.

FOREST FIRES.

While our region around Puget Sound
is generally exempt from dire calamities,
like tornadoes, plaques or famine, almost
every season we suffer more or less from
forest fires. 1t is true these fires have
never done any great damage to settlers,
except one season, about fifteen years ago
when many settlers lost their cabins,
fences and crops but the loss to valu
able timber is more or less every year,
and on several occasions the loss has been
incalculable. A little over forty years
ago, one of these great forest confagra-
tons swept over large portions of the
country, and especially on the high and
dry mountain regions On the noun
tain regions between the Nisqually and
Cowliz rivers, for many miles may now
be seen the fearful effects of the fire of
that season. But little vegetation is ev
en- now found, where once grew the heav-
lest bodies of timber Piles of burnt
timber still cover the ground, ten and if
teen feet deep, and the ground is almost
an h-heap.-These fires also ragged with
terrible fury along the Straits Of Fuca,
and along the western coast Of Oregon,
while lesser evidences may be found all
over the country. We are told that the
smoke was so thick that one person could
not see another on the prairies over
ten or twelve feet distant. Several years
ago the smoke was so think that it impe-
died navigation on the Sound. The ever
green trees, of which our forests are
chiefly composed, burn like finder, aftes
long continued dry weather, and fires
once started among them spread quickly
over great areas; although the broken
face of the country, with low lands and
valleys, does not admit of such general
conflagration as occurred a few years ago
in the northern part of Michigan. Our
frequent summer rains also keep the for
ests comparatively damp, while the cult
ing away and the denuding the forests of
these heavy bodies Of timber give less
chance for large fires every year. The
dry weather is causing more of these fires
this year than usual, and if valued in
money would no doubt reach many mil
lion dollars in this territory and Oregon.
But because much of this timber is ON
government land, and SO without per-
sonal ownership, the loss is lightly con-
sidered, while in reality it is heavy one.
The real value of our timber is Just be-
ing properly appreciated, and every year
will it become more so. The loss by
such fires will be more felt hereafter and
dreaded as calamity.-O. Transcript.

4 PARTIAL EXPLANATION OF
OUR CORRESPONDENTS
PUZZLE,

The ". ". Union Of the 18th says
"a New RAILRoAD-The prelmina-
steps towards organizing company to
build railroad from Walla Walla to
Snake river are being taken, and in a
few days we hope to lay before the read
ers Of the Union copy of the article of
incorporation. The chief aim of the
proposed company is to tap the Oregon
Short Line which gives every intention
to build down Snake river and over to
Puget Sound. The proposed road will
be about 40 miles long, and will run
through rich farming country, So far,
forty business men, and firms, including
many Of the wealthiest in the city have
signiied their willingness to engage in
the enterprise. AS the project is practi-
cable, and would prove Of great benefit
to the city, and is being worked up by
the most enterprising men in our midst,
there is no doubt of its success. We
will give further particulars at the proper
time"
Did we know the 40 business men of
Walla Walla who are to engage in this
new enterprise, we could infer more in
diligently the sincerity and earnestness
OF the movement. We await the partic-
ulars promised.
