Be IT said to the lasting credit of
the present state legislature that it has
done one good act already that will
be commended by all decent and hon
est people. We refer to the abolish
ing of the judicial district presided
over by Vandivert, of Kinsley.

DID you ever stand by the open
grave as the clods were falling in and
contemplate eternity? Did you ever
stop to think what was in store for
man in that great beyond? Did you
ever consider that when the grave
was reached-the final punctuation of
mems earthly career-that it was the
leveler of all mankind? That at this
juncture. the rich and the poor, the
high and the low, were all placed upon
the same plane, the same roadway to
the tribunal of justice? Did it ever
occur to you that while the church
bell was solemnly tolling time to POM
pous cortage of the affluent, and
poor widows weeds and tears are the
only evidence of mourning in the pot
ter's field, that ostentation and display
do not open the gates of heaven, that
the cathedral chimes do not ring the
soul into eternal happiness? Did you
ever think of these things? The grave
is the terminal of mans greatness-th
final of earth where all men come to
a common plane. Yet how few seem
to appreciate it.-Westphalia Times.

Somehow or other there is a vast
amount of work for charitable institu-
tons of this country to perform just
at present and their labor is increas-
ing. Have you been investigating
for the purpose of ascertaining the
cause?-Lane County News.
AND after you have investigated,
do you think the cause is too much
money? or lack of confidence? Prob
ably the cause is too much work for the
laboring classes, caused by the fac
tory wheels that started when Major
Mckinley pressed the button last fall.

Worked the Wrong Way.

The young man who is willing to be
the butt Of his own story lives in De-
troit, and subscribes more heartily
than he ever did before to the sentiment
that honesty is the best policy.
I've paid these Highthawk cabmen
a fortune" he begins by way of letting
his conscience down easily. They've
given me the worst of it at every angle,
and | had no compunction in trying to
give one of the craft some of his own
medicine. 1t was in Buffalo. | had
about reached the end Of my financial
string and concluded to come home be-
cause there was nothing else to do.
had a $40 gold piece and some small
change. There was nothing to waste,
SO l determined to try a trick that has
more than once been worked upon these
nocturnal hackmen. Boldly hailing one
of them, l asked what he would charge
to have me at the midnight train. When
he innocently proposed a double fare
offered him the gold piece. He couldn't
change it, and time was precious. No
matter, we could fix it at the depot.
Away he went with a clatter, for
it was a good thing. When he brought
up with a band-wagon flourish in front
Of the station there were just five min
utes TO spare. Running my hand into
my pocket l hastily sputtered: BY
George. I've dropped that coin in the
hack Wait just a minute till l get
a lantern and We'll find IT. Turning a
second later l saw that hack going
up the street like an express train, and
set my valise down that l might double
up TO relieve my laughter The dodge
had worked. He would go home to
search an empty hack. Then l hurried
to the ticket Office and called for a
ticket, still laughing as 1 imagined what
my victim would have to say. But
when I ran my thumb and first finger
into my vest pocket my face went long
and rigid. I had lost that SO in the
hack, and I walked about till morning
before l could telegraph for help
