Beware of despairing about yourself
you are commanded to put your trust
in God, and not in yourself.
The harder a true Christian is
pressed by adverse circumstances, the
higher he will rise above them.
You help man in proportion as you
strengthen his faith. You injure him
in proportion as you weaken it.

WATERLOO TRUTH.
BY M'aINTY,s GHOST.


Mr. j. Misner went to Albany We'd
nesday to get his repeating rifle re.
paired. He says Cuba may need more
help.
Strawberries are ripening now. The
reason we know this, friend condes-
cended to give us few, and as they
were about one-third ripe, we know
they are ripening. We suppose the
warm spring rains that Oregon is
celebrated for, are helping them along.
We are glad "Trilbyn found few
items to write about. We would like
to see the other correspondents fill the
columns of the EXPRESS with news as
our part is about to sink in Kansas
drought.
We would feel like hiding or leaving
for some place unknown if we were the
boys who came back from the Salem
ball Sunday afternoon in such plight
but such is the way our town is gener-
ally represented, If not at the dance,
on the way home. They are bound
to show how cute they are. We may
be mistaken, the boys might have
been glad to get back after being away
so long, but after they got inside the
corporation they shouldn't have dis
turbed the quiet Of the town by i'm
proving their lungs.
We have been hanging up against
fences, stores, barns, ETC., listening to
the great puzzle of "Who Will Win?n
or politics. The populists seem to be
getting the worst of the puzzle as both
of the old parties seem to be fighting
like mad to get the prize and the popu-
lists are going to be showed under,
unless they join forces with one of the
old parties. Some of the candidates
will be elected though regardless of
politics, one of them we believe, from
what the republicans, democrats and
populists say, will be S, M. Garland,
the democratic nominee for county
Judge, as he will poll large vote from
each party. As for ourselves politics
are not troubling us, it is our own
scalp we are watching.
