elf Clarence DE Melville Bungs am
present wild us tonight, should like
to spoke to him. said Brother Gardner
as the meeting opened.
Brother Bungs was on the back row
with a looking glass in his hands and a
new brand of hair oil on his hair. He
rose up with u scrape and q bow, made
a great spread of a blue silk handker-
chief, and finally stood before the Pres
ident's desk.
''Brudder Bungs," resumed the old
man, Il reckon you am de purtiest
member of dc Lime-Kiln Club. You
puts lie on yer ha'r, wax on yer NOUS
tache, an de perfume on yer clothes re-
minds me of de wild roses of Var
ginny. Yes, you am de purtiest an
sweetest one of de lot"
Eyes, sah,' replied the brother,
while his face betrayed the fact that he
was tickled half to death.
'.But-by de way, Brudder Bungs,
what am your present bizness?'
':I'ze out of a job jist now, sab"
''When you work how much do you

'.Ize borrowed some, sah.''
''Brudder Bungs, I'ze had some
'sperience wild purity men, an nebber
seed one yet who wasn't q fraud on de
word manhood. When man sots out

head. No man kin labor and be purity
too. He darfo' lets work alone. He
beats his board, his tailor, his shoe
maker, an all his friends. He looks
KILN, an smells like cologne factory,
but he doan' pay up. Ebery smile
beats somebody outer twenty-five cents,
an cherry giggle costs somebody half a

Eyes, sah."
..Six months ago you had steady

There was no need to post the JAM

Losses by Fire

An exchange thinks it is strange
how accustomed people will become to
the repeated occurrence of events
which, if there were but one in life
time, or even in a series Of years,
would create the most intense excite
ment. Note, as an instance, adds the
FiremaifS Jo1THal, the destruction OF
property by fire in this country
Think how many men, how much cap
ital, and how great a share of the in
telligent thought of the land are kept
constantly employed because of this.
Every municipality i'm the land is con-
stantly agitated over the question of
fire extinguishment, every property
owner over the question of fire insur-
ance, and every builder and property
owner over that of fire prevention.
Each in turn gives employment to a
vast number of men whose whole
thought is engrossed by this annual
wiping ont of existence of a portion of
the wealth of the land, by no means
inconsiderable, whether regarded alb
solutely, or in its relation to the en-
tire production of the year. Thus,
since the 1st of January there has
been destroyed by fire in this coun-
try, S34, ,96O,727 worth of property,
and we may reasonably expect that
the final showing for the whole year
will not be less than $50, 900.

Unsatisfed Mortgages.

Under the mortgage tax law, en-
acted by the last legislature, the
county clerk is required to furnish to
the assessor, OH the 1st of August, an
abstract of all unsatisfed mortgages
showing the owners of the same and
the amount due thereon; and it is
made the duty of the assessor TO as
sess such debt and security for the full
amount that appears from the records
to be owing, unless the land mortgaged
is not worth as much as appears due
on such mortgages, and in that event
to assess the security at what he con-
considers its cash value. Under the
law all unsatisfed mortgages are re-
quired to be assessed. The county
clerk is now compiling an abstract
that will be ready at the requisite
time. The number in Clatsop county
will be small, not aggregating over
800.

All for Sensation.

Here you are. Our sensation paper.
Our paper which has and must have
something new, true, horrible and
startling in it once every twenty-four
hours. Something TO curdle the
blood and thrill the nerves. Some
thing to electrify you and wake you up
all over when you touch it at the
breakfast table. One of the great
features of this latter half OF the nine
teenth century. Everything fish that
comes to our net. Only one idea pre-
vades us in making this paper. Sem
satiO! Print truth, print lies, print
scandal, print prudency, print any
thing. Sensation, Ruin character,
wound feelings, break hearts, break
into privacy, invade into private life,
do anything, So that the one great
end is answered.
Sensation. Defend morality and
publish licentiousness in disguise in
its defense. Defend purity and
virtue, and besmirch a reputation
daily in their defense. Find abuses
and publish a column of rot in ferret
ing them out. Find you moral
cankers," ''moral cancers" "craters
of vice" in ten minutes. Sink or
swim, live or die, rule or ruin, sour,
savage, cynical and sensational.
Bound to raise laugh or blush or hit,
and then publish the disgusting de-
tails, and stimulate everybody's Curl
osity to know more. High jinksl
High pressure!
Our principlesl SensatiOnl Es-
pOuse a cause of reforml OF course,
if there's only a sensation in it.
Hard work. Yes, it Is to keep the
thing up to boiling point. Expletives
fail, superlatiYes give out, and start
ling headlines run dry. There come
awfully dull days when everything is
monotonously proper and nobody does
anything 6endish, and it is impossible
to invent any new kind of iniquity;
but, thank fortune, there are very
few of them. Graphic.
