The 4th at Haystack.

After riding through beautiful noun
tain scenery, we got there about 10
o'clock and found the grounds just below
the hall well crowded and packed With
happy and patriotic people. The first
Of importance on the program was the
reading Of the Declaration of Indepeh-
dence by Prof. Crabtree, after which,
in very nice little speech, he intro
duced the orator of the day, Mrs. Katie
Kehm Smith, from the Willamette Val
ley--s curly-headed, nervous little wom-
an, whose head is somewhat fat on top
She, by the aid of northeast wind, en-
teriained us for over an hour with dis
course that was appropriate in the alb
sence of the song, The Star Spangled
Banner. In plain English she told US
that Uncle Sam was not so much pump
kins" as we thought he was; but the
firecrackers popped away just the same.
Next we had nice basket dinner, the
only draw back of which was more good
things than we could eat. After dinner
Mrs. Smith delivered US lecture in the
Liberal hall, and the boys ran horse
race somewhere in close proximity. l
understand that Jimmy Williams won
the derby. BY virtue of q good deal OF
Whipping and swearing he came out un-
der the home wire about or 6 O'Clock
in the evening. The exercises closed by
dance in the hall till broad daylight
and notwithstanding that we are resi-
dent of the United States and humble
subject Of the "bottle-bellied' majesty,
King Grover, we tried to be happy and
moderately succeeded. L. S. D.

The Beneficent Bicycle.


 The St. Louis Post-Dispatch of a late date, editorially: says: "The beneficence of the bicycle is not con- fined to those who experience the good effects of a daily spin. It is demonstrating it's value as a road maker in a practical way. The million or so of peope whom it has turned into enthusiastic advocates of good roads have caught the attention of the political conven- tions.
 "The New York Democrats adopted a "good roads" plank which speci- fically refers to the bicyclers. It is as follows:
 Improved highways of travel throughout the Statein the interest of our citizens, and particularly of the farmers and bicycle riders.
 "The Massachusetts Democrats also hardened to the demand of the wheelmen and incorporated the following plank in their platform:
 "'Bad roads constitute heavy tax upon any community. Sound economy requires the improvement of highways for the use of vehicles of all kinds, and we favor all practicable steps in this direction
 Having made good roads a political issue and won over the Democratic party In two great States, the wedge has been started. Other States will follow and the Legislatures will soon have to yield to the demand of the wheeIman for practical legislation for good roads. The farmers patient horse may yet have occasion join with his master in blessin ng the wheel

When from the underworld the light
Shot through the dead and lying leaves
/ saw a witch-dance. where the corn
stood stacked IN half hundred sneaves.
Their tatters streaming on the wind
They bowed. they bent they turned,
They trembled with an aguish chill.
Wither,d and shriyelled in the frost.
Nodding in rhythmic time and tune.
What unsung slaves perchance they
heard
What strange phrase muttcred. al the
Win Wild and silent laughter stirred.
When. happily. hurrying troop.
As Dr. one wound some fairy horn,
Out of the shadow rose. and then
Went dancing with the stocks of corn
Zach little figure waved her scarf,
4 score Of airy fairy flags
Bach corn-stook curtsicd. turn by turn.
Eustlng her olG and silken rags.
They capered here. they cspercd there.
Balanced 20 partners. trlpped ana
Now stately as a saraband..
Now a mad tarantella whirled.
So dark SO weird SO hooking these.
Things out OF cid. So sweet so dear,
So innocent the fairy folk,

When suddenly the last light fen.
A SAD wind moaned through signing

OF Doubtful ProprictN.

We are not al first much inclined 10
favor the bin which Mr.. Grant OF Penn
sylvania, has introduced into the national
House Of Representatives. providing that
no person may hereafter be eligible 10
the office Of postmaster unless first re-
commended 10y the patrons Of the Office
by vote i'm open meeting called FOR
that purpose. and also providing that
within sixty days after the passage Of
the act q copy OF it shall Doe posted in
every office i'm a conspicuous place
We doubt the propriety Of such lceisla-
ton. 10 is a new sort OF civil-service re-
form. and does not commend itself to our
approval There IS no telling whittier the
enactment of such law would lead the
government. Mr. Grants bill has many
features besides the one We have mem
toned. We are not sure that it does not
propose TO violate the Constitution Of the
United states. That instrument contains
"a provision which might possibly be
trenched upon by Mr. Grants bill
