Once was a young man, now / am
old, and I've never seen a girl unfaith-
ful to her mother that ever came to
be worth one eyed-button on her hus-
band. It's the law of God 1t isn't exactly
in the Bible, but it is written large

Tor the boys this time. If one Of you
chaps ever come across a girl that, with
face full Of roses, says as you come to

AT Caldwell the other day, a young
fellow of % green summers and girl
of greener springs boarded the train
for Baker City. By the time they had
arrived at Ontario they had snuggled
up; at Weiser he was squeezing her
like lemon and as the train rolled in
to Baker City he drew her still little
closer and bit her on the neck and she
te he he'd until the hotel porters on the
platforms fell all over themselves. It.
was pie time for the travelling men

body sighed when the loye-sick couple

der perpetrated on our town by the
Siloer AdCocate, a paper published at
Ontario, Oregon. We are personally
acquainted with this couple, and know
for certainty that they were from
Ontario and grew up with the town.
They had never been outside Of town
before and, Of course, didn't know how
to act.
From the following story going the
hounds ii seems to be quite evident
that Col Bryan is one of the boys:
thirty dollars for piano, So for a
billiard table, S25 for four watches and
clocks, 800 for three horses and three
carriages, So for a sewing machine,
and household goods to the total
amount of $3.50, are the values placed
upon his personal belongings by Mr..
VIM. J. Bryan in answer to the tax
assessor of Lincoln, Neb. A casual
examination of these figures creates
the pleasing impression among his ad,
m.reTs that Mr.. Bryan is really one of
the people and lives most modestly. A
little closer scrutiny, however, dis
closes the unpleasant fact that Mr..
Bryan has either driven exceedingly
hard bargains in the acquisition of all
the necessities and some of the luxur.
les of life and had used dollars of ex-
ceedingly great purchasing power, or
else he has, like ordinary mortals, sim
ply been telling the tax assessor a good
sized fairy tale, to avoid contributing
too much to the support of the State"
The board of equaliz alton when it
meets on the Goth of the present month,
will have our profoundest sympathy,
if all the roar about unjust taxation we
hear these days on the steets mater
aIize, and the court rooms are besieged
in a body by mob of angry citizens
as is threatened, The equelizers, or
anybody else for that matter, are on
thin ice when they make an attack on
the peoples pocket book, and it may
appear to some as the manifestation of
supreme egotism for body of men to
go behind the sworn statement off good
citizens and tell them what their pro.
perty is really worth. 1t seems that a
mans oath ought to be worth some
thing. But then it may be just posi-
bic that the average man cares no
more for an oath when it is attached
to tax certificate than the small boy
cares for the 7th Catholic 9TH COM
mandment, when he comes to water
melon patch. We bespeak for the
equaIizers an interesting time, much
sorrow ard vexation of spirit, and
for the tax payer, gnashing of teeth
and outer darkness.
A little trouble occurred down in
Salt Lake City this week, resulting in
death of one man, the imprisonment Of
another for murder, aud much sorrow
all around. The cause of the whole
trouble seems to have been that a
young woman down there had large
and generous heart, and from thu
boundlessness. of her affections a mum
