the assignment Of Lebold & Fisher SHOW
that the assets are only about one half o
the liabilities.
There is some talk of the Methodist.
and Presbyterians combining for the
coming year and having bat one pastor
for both churches.
There is no use trying to disguise the
fact 1t is very dull in Wa-Keeney. We
are speaking from a social rather than &
business standpoint.
The Lane County Herald showed con.
siderable enterprise last week. in getting
out paper. The Herald Office was en-.
tirely destroyed by fire.
Mr. E. w. Brown has nephew from
Wisconsin visiting him. He reports the
mercury 40 degrees below zero and snow
three feet deep in the forests.
The deadlock in the Iowa legislature
is still unbroken but it is thought that a
permanent organization will be effected
in day or two as the result OF compro-
mise.
Mrs. Robinson, living just west of
the Commercial house, has been very
low for several weeks, and, on account of
her age, but little hope is entertained of
her recovery.
Mrs. John Barrett left Wednesday
morning for visit with her parents at
Hugo, Colorado. Mr.. and Mrs. Barrett
expect in few weeks to remove to Seat
tie, Washington.
After a very careful consideration of
the matter we have come to the conclu-
sion that the cause of the present de-
preston with most of rs the scarcity of
money. Strange, isn't it?
The la grippe has about exhausted
itself in this community. There are but
few subjects left for it to conquer. So
far as we have heard there have been no
deaths as a result of the disease.
Almost every county in the state has
become a member of the State Immigra-
ton Association and will doubtless re-
ceive excursion rates. Shall Trego coun-
ty alone remain on the outside?
Rev. T. L. Walker says that the
question, as marriage a failure?" is one
that every person wishes to investigate
for himself and no one will take the ex-
perience and observation OF others as a
criterion.
We had number of calls for extra
copies of the WORLD containing the
weather report published two weeks ago
and which we have been unable to supply.
We have therefore concluded to publish
it again this week.
"A. W. Hotchkiss expects to start to
Kansas City to-day if he can get a car.
He will open up a job Office at that place.
Mr.. Hotchkiss says he has all the news
paper glory he wants and will, hereafter.
devote his time to making money.
Among those from the country at
the observation-disclosures wedding we
noticed A. Y. Hixon and family, Mr.. and
Mrs Ben Mapes, Mr.. and Mrs. j. W.
Reynolds, Chas. Ridgway, Aquilla Mar
quand, s. Ridgway and J. F. Barclay.
-Ninety-two counties are now enrolled

j. G. Brown, of the Banner neighbor-
hood. has traded his homestead for
stock of merchandise. The deed has been
given and the goods have been received
at Wa-Keeney. We learn that Mr.. Brown
is thinking of becoming a merchant at
this place. G. F. Mcknight engineered
the trade.
Travellers may learn a lesson from
Mr.. G. d. Cone, prominent attorney of
of Parker, Dakota, who says st never
leave home without taking a bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy with me, and on many oc-
casions have ran with it to the relief of
some sufferer and have never known it to
fail. For sale by Il. J. Hille.
The Wyoming legislature is consid-
ering the ACCESSIBILITY of levying tax on
all bachelors over the age of So years.
We approve of such legislation, and
think the tax should be made so high as
to legislate them ont Of the territory. A
man who will live to the age of thirty-fve
without marrying, unless be has reason
able exeuse, has no rights.that commun-
ity are bound to respect.
