Poor Indeed!

There are degrees and kinds of poverty
just as there are differences of opinion
among those who compute and measure
poverty and riches by different standards.
Some men deem themselves poor because
they are less rich than others,a gain there
are comparatively poor people who are
satisfied with a competence. There is a
kind of poverty for which no amount Of
wealth can compensate, namely, pow
erty of bodily stamina, evinced by ner-
vousness and arrangement of the func-
tions of digestion, bilious secretion and
the bowels. To restore vigor upon per-
manent basis there is one remedy that
fully covers the requirements, "fills the
bill" and this is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. By restoring digestion, giving a
healthful impulse to the action of the
bowels and liver and tranquillizing the
nerves, it fultills the condition necessary
to resumption of strength by the sys-
tenn. 1t also overcomes malaria and rheu-
matism.

REMEMBERS SAMPLE ORR.
Would Have Been Governor of Missouri

Would Have Been Governor of Missouri
if He Had Had Enough Votes.
"Your reference in THE NEW NORTH
WEST to the death of Sample Orr recalls
to my memory that he was q neighbor of
mine in Confederate gulch in 1861 said
Mr. Peter Walton a few days ago to re-
porter for this paper. "In those days
toll roads, toll bridges and lots of other
tolls were the order of the day, but there
was no toll on saloons nor hurdy- gurdy
dance halls. Sample Orr's eldest boy,
who was afflicted with lisp, took the
toll road mania and stretched a rope
across narrow path between our cabins
leading to other miners cabins in the
lower end Of the gulch. The boy was
punctual in collecting tolls of no special
amount, as we generally had in our vest
pockets small nuggets of gold picked off
the aprons Of our hoppers, and tolls were
generally met in such currency. One
evening after his day Of toll collecting
he forgot to remove the rope, and late
miner coming down after dark, stumbled
into it and heels over head he went. He
made his complaints to Sample, who gave
the lisping boy a good pounding. When
he got through his job he said to the boy,
Now you know who l am, don't you?'
The lisping boy replied, sYes, you would
have been governor of Missouri if you
had had enough votes.'"

Public School Exercises.

Christmas exercises were held at the

reeitations by the pupils, followed by
able addresses by Rev. Lindsey, the
evangelist, M. A. Miller and S. 0.
Wallace.
Lebanon has q public school that she
may well be proud of. 1t is second to
none in the state, and under the able
leadership of Prof Baker, and the val
liable assistance rendered him by the
subordinate teachers, this school is
growing better every day, and will
soon reach perfection,
The scholars, both large and small,
acquitted themselves nobly, thereby
showing that great pains is being taken
with them in this work of learning.
No truer saying was eyer uttered
than when Rev. Lindsey said that
"'The public school is the star of the
nineteenth century"
Let all of our citizens give the teach
ers their earnest cooperation in this
great work of education.

lures. Such men as M. O. Lownsdale,
A. II. Carson, Chas, Daley, DR.. James

tions will be required for entrance.
Farmers, farmers wives, sons and
daughters, ought to take advantage of
this course. By this course they can
become thoroughly familiar with
modern thought, scientific investiga-
ton and practical application of the
same. There is complete working
dairy at the college in daily operation,
and all of those attending will have
the advantage of the practical work of
the operation Of modern dairy machin-
cry, including the running of the en-
gine.
All persons attending the course are
requested to bring with them speci-
mems of insect pests or diseases of any
kind affecting their orchards, for ex-
animation.

bany and ask the agent for a receipt
for the amount paid for the same.
Those coming on the West Side will
buy their tickets to Corvallis and get a

Better Outlook for Hops.

The first hop contracts covering the
crops to be harvested in 1897 in the
vicinity of Salem, says the Statesman,
were filed with the county recorder
yesterday by Julius Pincus, expert for
the local firm of Morst 4 Lachmond
Co. There were fonr in number and
the growers and number of pounds
covered are as follows:
f. Levy and George Sun Ito the
above company, 25,0O0 pounds.
W. H. aud ]. P. Holmes, $4,000
pounds.
w. Fl. Holmes and Hop Sing Co,
10000 pounds.
A. D. and Lewis Pettyjohn, 10000
pounds.
The price to be paid is 10 cents in
each case, and delivery is to be made
between the dates of October LIST and
3lst.
This is an indication that Oregon
hops next year will not be drug on
the Market" and altogether the hop
growers prospects for the coming sea-
son are very flattering.
From persons who have travelled
through Marion, and Polk counties
the past week, it is ascertained that
there is much renewed activity in the
hop yards prepatory to getting them in
fl shape for cultivation later on.
