In his speech last night Mr.. Eoor.
hees, among other heassfnl claims. de
clzrei that the appropriation for n enx-
sonas building Al Port Townsend was
secured throsgh his efforts. The
claim i absurd. As a matter Of fact
ycerE.ees had nothing TO do with this
appropriation. his position OF hostility
% the administration and ~ the lead
ing committees organized under its
authority making him a positive him
derance % the efforts Of others. The
successful appeal in the Port Town
send case was made by Judge Kuhn
and fo1nd its really effective support
tn the Oregon senator's. This fact Is
shown by the record. and Mr.. voorhees,
presumes upon the ignorance Of his
hearers when he falsely takes credit to
himself.

Threshing Oats by Hand.

Some good farmers are readopting the
Old method Of thIeshing tLeir oat crops
with a fail, leaving the work to be
done in the winter, and thus furnishing
employment TO men who would other
wise be idle. There are some other ad-
vartages in this practice not included
in the employment it gives to labor IN
winter. The freshly threshed oat straw
is readily eaten by stock, andEthere are
usually enough light oats left in to
make It passa5!y good feed. It is bet
ter TO leave light oats in the straw than
TO put them in the bin among the
threshed grain, for unless the grain is
carefully graded some of these light
oats will go in the seed and help to de-
teriordte The crop. With haud-,hresh-
ed oats in cold weather there has been
no danger that vitality of seed has been
impaired by heating. While the oat IS
in the sheaf any dampness in the grain
Is absorbed by the caaf, and as the
head Is bulky and porous it dries out
without injury. Oats thTeshed by ma
chine as soon as harvested, and then
dumped, several hundred bushels, per-
haps, in one bin, are pretty sure to heat.
IL would be better ia such case if the
seed were entirely spoiled instead of
having lis vitality IMPAIRED. The crop
comes up weak, aud il the season is not
every way favorable t is q partial fail
ure at tie best, and this makes a larger
proportion Of pooI oats for seed the sub
sequent season.

On 4 Missouri Prairie.

The forests of Kansas do not impress
the beholder as do these magnificent
plains of Missouri, over which We are
whirling as these lines are penned.-
There is nothing vast, nothing awe in
spring about a Kansas tree. It does
its best, suppose. but it runs so much
10 warps and knots and corns and
cramps and bunions and warts and ex-
crescences and crooks and twists and
lunches that it can't get very high.
1t wastes its energies in crookedness.
But maybe it catches that from the In
dian agents. Anyhow, danger board
ought to be put up near Kansas forest,
lest some careless man might step on it
in the park.
a moment the train slacks up, and
down the long sweep of this vast Mis-
souri, prairie comes the sturdy settler
There is no snow, but he drive a sleigh
The sleigh weighs somewhat less than a
ton and is drawn by an only OK, ano he
an orphan. L judge that he is an or
phan from the tender, Teproachful ex-
preston that films in his dim and glaz-
ing eye every time the sturdy settler
fetches him whack with piece Of a
rail he uses for ''gad.'' If the rail
doesn't break and the OK doesn't die,
the sturdy settler Will get there. In
fact, think he is nearly there now.
This is a great big country. 1t makes
you tired to try to see the nearest edge
of it. Tie longer you look the further
away il seems, and the further into this
country you go the wider it grows
Bless your soul there's room enough
out here for the man who wants thu
earth. He could come out here and
have it, and then there would be plent,
left for the rest of US.

Young Men Read This.

In the pocket book OF Hon. Stephen
Allen, who was drowned on the Henry
Clay, was found a printed slip apparent
ly cut from a newspaper, of which the
following IS copy. 1t is worthy to be
placed in every newspaper, and eEgIav-
ed on the heart OF every young man.
Keep good company or none.
Never BE- idle if your hands cannot
be usefully employed, attend to the cul-
tivation Of your mind.
Always speak the truth.
Make few promises.
Live up 10 your engagements.
Keep your own secrets, # you have
any.
When you speak to a person look him
in the face. Good company and good
conversation are the very sinews Of
virtue.
Good character is above all things
else. Your character cannot be essen
TALLY Injured except by your own acts.
If any one speaks evil of you, let
your life be such that none will BE-
lieve him.
Drink no kind of Intoxicating drinks
Ever live, misfortune excepted,
within your income.
When you retire TO bed think over
what you have done during the day.
Make no haste to be rich. If You
would prosper, small and steady gains
give competency with a tranquil mind.
Never play at any game OF chance.
Avoid temptation through fear you
may not withstand it.
Earn monsy before you spend IT.
Never run in debt unless you see Q
way TO get out again.
Never borrow, if YOU con possibly
avoid it.
Do cot put off till o-morrow that
which should be done to-day.
Do not marry until YOU are able tc
support wife
Never speak evil of any one.
BE just before you are generous.
Keep yourself innocent if you wouIC
be happy.
Save when you are young to spent
when you are old.
Read over the above maxims at leas
once week.

FEED FOR CoLTs.-Young, growing

is mainly fat prod ucing feed. and
consequently is unsuitable in such cases,

MI Alfred Speer. of Passsic, y. j.. hav-

frst-class wine, has for the past thirty years
devoted his time and capital to raising the
Oporto Grape from the vine brought from
the Doura valley in Portugal, with the view
to supplying this want that he has been
eminently successful, the endorsements
which his Port Grape Wine has received
from physicians all over this country and

THE way to walk on a slippery day
is to lean forward, keep the feet well

foot down solid, toe and heel touching

Editor Mirror:
have just finished reading book with
the above title. by Miss Winnie Louise Tay-
lor, of Freeport. ILL.,. and as its theme
directly concerns our readers. l submit the
following comment:
The story is strictly American in its SUBJ
ject matter. The authors knowledge of
our history and institutions is clear and
accurate to a degree which lifts the reader
above religious and political bias. and
reveals our true American character One
of the prominent subjects embraced within
its pages is an unprejudiced analysis of
prison life. Since the great English novel
lists exposed the barbarous practices of
England's prison system, no writer. to my
knowledge. has given so true an insight into
the life of prisoner, as seen by those who
experience its degrading. demoralizing
effects, as has Miss Taylor in this novel.
| would especially advise all persons who
are connected with our courts, legislatures
and prisons to read it. 1t is free from all
gullible sentimentality, and carries only the
highest standard of religion and morality
The philanthrOpiSt should read this book
that he (the rules of grammar require me
to say he; may be enabled to distinguish
between character and religious pretentOns;
between manhood and fine form or a
pretty face; between those who need assist
ance and those who do not. in the sense
intended here. Above all, the prisoner
should read 1t that he may see himself in
his true character; that he may be enabled
to place himself in the class to which he be.
longs; that he may see that the true man
may retain the greater part of his man
hood, no matter what his condition. The
book is full of facts on topics rarely treated
in the prevailing literature of the day.
