Two fairs were opened in Oregon
this week, one at Salem. called the sta te
fair, one at Portland. the industrial ex-
position. both beginning on the same
day, and il ia to be noticed with q spirit
OF strife. This state fair should be a
fine exposition of the industries OF the
state, and as snch deserves the support
OF the entire state regardless OF location,
it should though be made a state fair
and not a eouaty fair, aud be run in the
interest of the entire state and not ID
the interest o. the county 10 xhieh it il
held Il il to be hope1 that our state
fair he developed On the broad gauge
plan, and that the Portland exposition
instead of being at swords point, like q
F. Spaniard, display spi'it Of friendlinssi
and that the two work more together il
the interests oil tie state.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY still has hopes
OF a peaceful solution of the Spanish
Cuban difficulty. He has no desire
to plunge the country rashly into war.
He is in favor of peace. He is quoted
as saying that he would rather see the
republican party abolished than re-
sponsible for an unjust war, and that
as long as he remains at the head Of
the government he will try every
peaceable means of settlement before
he appeals to arms. IF war comes
it must be war for humanity, a war
that will have the approval Of every
person in the United States, and the,
sympathy of the civilized world.
Some people talk very fippantly Of
war, but it is indeed a very serious
matter. AS Gen. Sherman once said {:

FAILED TO ESCAPE.
oner Is Frustrated by the
ShcriR's Wife.

DR.. Desmond, in Jail at Montezuma
under Indictment for assaulting two
little girls at Searsboro last winter,
made bold attempt to escape, but was
stopped by the heroic work of Mrs.
Binegar, wife of the sheriff of Powe-
shiek county. With large stove poker,
which he secured in some mysterious
manner, he succeeded in making hole
through the wall of his cell Sheriff
Binegar was away from the house DUR
ing the evening, and his wife, hear
ing strange noise, went to investi-
gate. AS she opened the door leading
to the cells, Desmond jumped at the
open door. Mrs. Binegar was too quick
for him and slammed the door shut
and locked it on the outside. She then
secured a large club and ran around
the building TO give the alarm. Motto
ing the strange hole, she stopped. Just
then Desmond's head appeared through
the hole, and he would have made good
his escape, but she called to him to
halt. She told him she would kill him
If he did not go back, and raised the
club to put her threat into execution.
Desmond weakened and drew himself
back into his cell. Mrs. Binegar saw
two men in buggy near by, who disap-
peared when she gave the alarm. The
dirt had been dug away and part of
the hole in the wall made from the
outside, which leads to the conclusion
that the men were assisting Desmond

| They rest who meath Old Glory stood OF
many fateful day,
And some are camping close beside the foe
| who wore the gray:
| And over all the robin sings, the daisy lifts
her head,
| And Natures richest blessings are upor
the sleepers shed.
| They sleep who often watched at night the
glowing fires of Lee,
They dream no more of that great march
that ended at the sea-
Potomac's waves no more are red and or
the mountains crest
Where gared the sullen guns Of war this
eagle builds her nest;
The hosts of blue are camping yet beneath

They sleep where peep the buttercups

No picket lines to guard their camps no

For Death hath beat for every one his grim
and last tattoo.

Where not drum is beating in that csmp

The buds that dot the wilderness, the
snowy crests of foam
ray tribute to the gallant men who never
more came home:
FROM myriad hands each sunny May, our
grateful country through,
Fall Glory's fadeless immortelles upon the
dead In blue.
Methlnks see their sabers as they flashed
in battles sun,
seem to see the warlight fall on bayonet
and gun;
Before the farmhouse gate stand and
listen for their tread,
Forgetting that the mighty camps are
guarded by the dead:
They wear the blue. but meath the rose
they're camping where they died,
The sunny waves of Shenandoah around
their headstones glide:
The pines of Georgia cast In shade, the
long, long summer through,
The everlasting camping ground of those
who fought In blue.
Where stood the serried sections once no
fire-lit rivers flow,
Between the gaping cannon ruts the roses
bloom and blow,
And Peace cnihroned beneath one flag in
glory sits to-day,
And Love and Honor Join the hands of gal
liant Blue and Gray;
The swords of Grant and Lee are crossed,
but not on battles plain,
For Fame hath hung them with smile
above her worshiped fame;
The old commanders occupy that camp be-

Beyond the shadows dense and grim, be-

Upon you in flames bivuoac the wreaths
of beauty fall,
And Freedoms flag of stripes and stars Is

ardor warm and true,
Beloved by all from coast to coast, o

How to Teach Patriotism.


Perhaps the great poem of the war is yet
to write; some hand perhaps now unborn
may one day send great epic of it ringing
down the ages. Yet while We wait for it the
poets pen has not been idle and such poems
as Barbara Freitchie," "Sheridan's Ride"
and 1.-THE Blue and the Gray" will live per-
haps forever. They never lose their hold
upon us and sweet it is to hear them lisped
by baby voices, to make their indelible i'm
print upon the characters now being nodded
into lifelong patriotism. 1t is the verses
we learn first which retain their hold upon
US in after years, therefore let us see to it
that the children are taught the ones that
tell the story of some heroic deed. Then
will Decoration day always mean more to
them than an empty name, and the simple
lines perhaps of an unknown poet may help
to send some future hero to his duty!

Rather would the stranger on our shores be
impressed by the fact that patriotism is

BADLY BITTEN.
The Terrible Experience OF Woman
Who Was Attacked by N
Ferocious Bulldog.

Mrs. Jeanette Ireland, residing near
Waterloo, passed through terrible ex-
perience, being attacked by Il large and
ferocious bulldog, which inflicted upon
her injuries which may cause her death.
The dog had been long kept in the FAM
lily and was regarded as perfectly gem
tie. but he made an unprovoked attack
upon the woman, springing at her
throat. Mrs. Ireland threw ur her
arms to ward off the attack, and so
probably saved her life, though her
arms were so terribly lacerated that the
flesh hangs in shreds and both will
doubtless have TO bc ampuiated. Other
severe wounds were also inflicted on the
woman's breast and shoulders. Mrs.
Ireland succeeded in so p.uckily fight
ing for her life that he dog was at last
wearied and left her, and the woman
succeeded i'll reaching Il ncighboring
farm, when she tainted from exhaus-
ton and loss Of blood. The physician
states she is in a precarous condition,
with the chances all against her recov-
