Monday Clint Cole and his brother
in-law Jack Barnes, of Millers, were in
Albany, and though reported not to be
on very good terms, they navigated to-
gether and filled up on about the same
kind of tarantula juice. Going home
late IN the afternoon they disagreed ma
terially on all the live issues of the day,
resulting in n free fight III their dngc,lrt.
Cole drew his knife and gave Barnes n
frightful cut in the face. beginning on
the right side of his nose, past the
mouth TO his chin. The blood flowed
very freely. Au Albany man who
met them going to Jefferson, Cole driv-
ing and Barnes sitting with his head
in his hands, said the bottom Of the cart
was coverd with clotted blood. Barnes
wounds were dressed by {. Jefferson
surgeon. Cole, who told the story Of
the fight, was arrested by the city
marshal there and brought to Albany

MANS RELATION TO Law.

Man must stand in one of two
relations to law; either to law as
an outward declaration of authori-
tv, or to law as an inward princi-
pie of love. Take the principle
into the family for practical eluci-
de ion. Law az an outward au-
thority, is established in the family,
to meet ignorance on the one hand
or disorder on the other. So long
as the household has worked har-
moniously, the head of the house
docs not feel called upon to write
commandments, and publish edicts;
he says it is better to have sponta-
ncous expressions of interest and
love than forced submission; but
he feels that where love has been
defective, law must be made strin-
gent; as the moral impulse is weak,
the outward prohibition must be
emphatic. Legal restriction is in
proportion to moral feebleness.
The stronger the written law, the
weaker the unwritten dictate of
love. The ignorant or self-opin-
donated man, especially the guilty
man, must have law thrust upon
his notice, thundered into his ear,
sometimes indeed, scourged into
his flesh. BY an inverse process
we may read a nations moral
history by studying its penal code.
The legislators and magistrates are
constantly, Though it may be un-
consciously, writing the spiritual
history of the country.

Now as to Clothing.

Whom the purse was emptied, as
above succinctly set forth, Montague
was compelled to open another bari
for the purpose of securing to our Gus
toners the latest novelties i'm fine suits
as well as those adapted to everyday
wear. We are now opening up our
elegant designs i'm Oregon City Cloth
ing, California Cashmere Clothing,
Mems Clothing, Youths Clothing,
Boys Clothing, all Imported Goods,
elegant-titting garments, at scandal
ously low prices.
Montague has had over forty years
experience in selling goods, twenty of
which were spent among you right
here i'm Lebanon, and he now proposes
to spend the evening of his life i'm Civ
ing to one and all such prices as the
Boss Granger of Linn county never
dreamed of. Make Montague know
you are going to pay cash down and
no grumbling (the chronic grumblor is
n despicable creature), and he will
make prices to you al right.

YHo TO roTE ron.


It is time for the voters of our
State to ask themselves what sort
Of man should be elected, and what
sort Of man should not be elected.
There are many grounds Of dis
qualification too obvious to need
mention. Among the essential quail
tiles to be sought in an officer, in
addition to honesty and integrity,
are these: He should be man of
mature wears and of sound business
iudgment-a man who has proved
by the successful conduct of his
own affairs, ability to manage the
affairs of the public. He should be
a man who, when once he has taken
the oath of Office, will keep steaily
in mind the fact that no matter
how he was nominated he is in office
not as a representative of any party
CLIQUE, but of the whole people.
And finally, he should be man
whose private life even if not inn
maculate, has at least not been so
vicious and prolifigate that he de-
serves to be barred from the hearth
of the respectable household. No
man should be elected to any Office
whois salaried employee, and espec-
tally salaried employe of corpo-
ration. such as railroad company.
that is liable to want franchises
during his term of Office. A man
working on salary is not master
of his own time. He must first
serve his employer, and business as
an officer must in all cases take
second place. And If his employer
be a corporation seeking favor from
the people and the government,
then il becomes not merely ques
ton Of time to do the peoples work,
but q question of unbiased and
disinteresed loyalty to the peoples
interests. Who belives that rail
way employe will risk his bread
and butter by arraying himself
against his company in case its in
terests conflict with those of the
people?
No statesman can afford to omit
the common people from his caleu
lation. They are the very root and
core of society. Presidents are
only blJssomings of the national
tree. The roof is more dependent
upon the foundation than the foun-
dation upon the roof. Nearly all
If not quite all the movements
which have changed the thinking
and determined the new courses of
the world have been upward, not
downward. The great revolution
tionists have generally been cradled
in managers and gone through rough
discipline in early life.
All men who have done any no.
table work in the world have felt
the consciousness of its importance,
as flre IN the bones. They could
not languidly dream of it, nor con-
template it from hazy distance.
They have hasted unto the battle.
Such a consciousness makes men
die young. 1t drives the blood
along the channels with an urgency
that greatly distresses nature, and
strains the intellectual nerve until
the brain sees strange sights and
often trembles for its own safety.
Only men of strong natures know
what is meant by this lavish ex-
penditure of life.

What a wonderful book is the
Bible in the matter of the variety
of its contents. Everything seems
to be in it-poem, narrative, music,
friendship, personal news, national
intelligence, judgment, battle,
prayer, song, anathema, and bene-
diction. Where is there anything
to correspond with this? Not in
any book certainly-but in actual
life there is the selfsame thing over
again without the loss of one line.
IF the sun could print for Us what
he sees on any day in the year, he
would print a second edition of the
Bible. 1t is page torn out of the
great volume Of life. What is the
daily newspaper but revised
translation of the Bible, often, in
deed, with God left out in the spell
ing, though He cannot be left out
in reality. Take to-morrow's paper
in one hand and the Bible in the
other, and see if the paper be not
full of repetitions and if there be
not something ike an echo in all
its utterances.

TITS apparent to the most casus


Ttis apparent to the most casual
observer that our population is
gravitating toward the cities and
towns. While we ike to see our
4swns growing in population and
wealth, We question the wisdom of
such a course if done at the ex-
pense and impeverishment of the
country. AS cities grow there must
be corresponding growth and de
velopment in the rural districts, or
acollapse is certain to result. What
the country needs is not more
diligent class of farmers, but small
farms well titled, a greater variety
of crops, and thorough, practical
knowledge of some one branch of
husbandry.
