His Penchant for Making Candidates
Sill In Evidence.
Another week has passed and once
more the Milton Eagle Is before us in all
its urbanizsd vacuity, as the personal
organ of the man who makes candidate
for some Office or other every morning
before breakfast.
After it is too late for remedy, we have
discovered for our own good and peace Of
mind, we did wrong in showing up our
astute friends candidate factory in our
last issue.
For this reason.
Hull 10 mad as hornet In buckle ber-
ry time.
He has blood in his eye.
He is revengeful cuss, and to 'get
even" is about to make q candidate OF
the chief push OF the PREss.

1t is sort Of an overture, predatory
to his realistic process of manufacture:
1T isn't necessary TO manufacture can
dldates for Office In this county-they
seem to be spontaneous product Of the
soil, and the most OF them are what Tall
Timothy Geer would characterize as
"promiscuous candidates" that is, they
arc ready TO take anything in sight from
road supervisor to president OF the Unit
ed States. We are Of the opinion that
even the immaculate Col. Fred Boyd, Of
the ATHENA Press, has 8 great longing
for political honors and pelf and that just
wink" or mod" would only be
necessary TO start him ia the mad race. T"

NUMBER 12

We therefore order the reverend clt1ry
to add in the daily Mass the collect pro
peace" and to recite with the people one
Our Father and Hail Mary after the
daily Mass.
We avail ourselves OF the opportunity,
however, to call to the mind OF our Cath
olic brethren that should war break out
between our Republic and Spain, we are
obliged in conscience to be loyal to the
flag, the stars and stripes. II is the
teaching Of Catholic theology that The
government has right binding on the
conscience Of its subjects for their money
and their arms in the war against the
foe. We trust, after God and the inter
cession of the BesTed Virgin, in the we'll
known peacable disposition of the Am.
erican Government and the American
people, that the war may be averted.
But should 1t come Catholics you know
your duty-we will add our prayers that
you may rival the splendid record of
loyalty, bravery and heroism with your
brethren in the faith have won In the
other wars OF our Republic; and that an
honorable success will crown the flag Of
our country once more.
We hereby order this, our circular. to
be read by the reverend rectors In each
church of our archdiocese, on the first
Sunday after its reception.

Rendezvous Of Orayerobbers

The burning ont Of flue in house in
Eugene has caused somewhat sensa
tional report to bs circulated, and the OF
ficers are giving 1t some attention Il is
said that pieces OF bones, resembling
those Of human beings, we're found after
the burning, and there is theory that
the house has formerly been the rendez.
vous OF graverobbers. The present o..
cupante, Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Harpster,
have only lived in the house short
time, it having heen vacant long time
before they moved In. They had heard
ghost stories about the house, and paid
no attention 10 them. To support the
theory that IL has been occupied by
ghosts, Mrs. Harpster says she has
found about the honse quito number OF
coffin screws and trimmings.

that TIE second division OF the train will

In sight now. From Pendleton, T. q.

l wish to thank you all for your close

self. ! also wish to thank the recorder
for his kind assistance and the straight
forward way in which he has kept his
records, wish also to thank the mar
shal and deputy for kindnesses shown
and for economy In the management of
his office. To the treasurer is due a lib

which he has kept bis accounts, from
which perfect detailed statement can
be made of the city's finances.
And now, gentlemen, In retiring, l
wish to thank one and all for favors

now brought to close has been fraught
with justice toward all and with economy
to the city, 1t is gratifying to know the
city's affairs will be left in able hands.
