MosIER MUSINGS.
Oh, who would not trouting go
Among the spring time breezes,
And cuss not If the fly they'd throw
Should catch among the freezes.


And euss not If the fly they'd throw
Should catch among the freezes.
Corn is being planted.
The little busy BUSINESS bee is among
the flowers.
Rev. Frank Ireland has just finished
planting an acre of straw berries.
Trout-food for brain. Wet, tired,
mad and hungry-food for thought.
A dance will be given at Jas. Hunters
on May 10th, in honor of Mrs. Hunters
birthday.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. Daggett have returned
to their ranch from Portland, where
they have been spending the winter.
Among Mosier's tribe of Billies we
have one worthy of special mention
from the fact that he has the only field
of alfalfa in the country, which is a re-
markably good crop here. We refer to
VIM. Watson, who is just as progressive
as they make 'em.
Rev. Rigsby of Hood River preached
here in district 81 Sunday forenoon. In
the afternoon he delivered a sermon in
district No. 8. A union Sunday school
was organized at the latter place, to
which all are invited.
Merchant Flaherty & Co. are up to
the times. Their store building here
will soon be on dress parade. She is
being treated to a new spring costume
of rich cream trimmed in chocolate.
Jas. Woods is doing the artistic work
and is proving himself a worthy knight
of the brush.
The x L ball club have changed the
date of their picnic from May 1st to
May 30th. This will not hinder the
anticipated good time from being had
by any means. The new arrangement
will also give the school children a
chance to attend and give the boys more
time to "brace upp for their coming
Waterloo.
"The diligent hand maketh rich,''
etc., etc. A. Root has grubbed four
acres of land this spring, which he has
planted to prune trees. He also put
three acres of old land into trees, max
ing total of seven acres. We deem
this very creditable showing, and
Mosier may well feel proud of citizens
like him.
Geo. Salinger and sons have opened
up quite field this spring in addition
to their already well improved place.
Mr.. Salinger has been here six years
and has doubtless made the best show
ing for the time expended of any one in
these parts. Broad fields, free from
stump or stone, and fine young orchards
have crowned his efforts. He is well
worthy imitation.
We kick-nothing surprising about
this, but our neighbors kick also. The
fact of the matter is, there'll be more
kicking when this item je read. It's all
about the costs in the Powers-Miller
case early this spring. Through the ig-
norance of inefficient officers, costs were
piled upon costs, and while they should
not have exceeded $15, we have Just
learned the sum total is not far from
5000. We understand these costs will
be assessed to the county taxpayers.
While the matter might have been a
state case if properly handled, the
county certainly should not pay for so
much blissful ignorance. Therefore, we
we kick. Let all brethren in
good standing do likewise.
Rejoice. Five days of fine spring
weather all in row. We begin to feel
it in our bones. Book US for poem if
she holds out.

oh spring d. ar spring, nice springl
Blessings be on you, spring
Oh dear, were glad its spring,
You sprang at last, oh spring.
