NOT A SWEAR-WORD IN 1T.
The Britt Tribune comments on de-
cision on a dam case in the following
amusing style; "The state of Iowa gave
81, 900 toward building a dam between
big and little Spirit Lakes. The
owners of the mill at Milford said dam
it they couldn't. The state said dam
it they could, and the case went into
court; the mill men getting out a dam
injunction. The people around Spirit
Lake said they wouldn't be damned
and the state said be damned they
would. And those who didn't want to
fight by dam site had to fight just the
same. Some said the fish couldn't get
up the dam site, and others said that a
dam site could be built with fish
way that would let the damned fish go
up so that some of them would be
damned above the dam and others
below the dam. The mill owns
ers said the damned outlet bya mill
site was dam enough and they didn't
want any more dam by a dam site.
Then the case came before Judge Quar-
ton, of Algona. Quarton knew dam
site from a mill site and a mildam site
more about lots OF other things than
some folk have got hay, and he dis
solved the injunction in soft water. The
dam site will now be above the mill
site and the damned fish can 90 where
they please for all Quarton cares. After
the dam fishway is put in it is hoped
that the damned lake will fill up so
the damned mud turtles can get
drink and let the Spirit Lakes run
their damned boats and stop q dam
site of controversy"

Warde Coming.

The story OF The Lions Mouth which
will he presented by Frederick Warde
together with Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence NJ.
Brune at the opera house, Saturday
evening, is undoubtedly an important
piece OF dramatic writing. It is of really
fine literary quality, the diction being
rich and smooth, while the metaphoses
and SMILES with which it abounds
sparkle with the true lustre OF master
creation. 1t is even claimed that the
play is actually perfect in construction.
Each turn OF the plot windings its coils
lrmer and tighter around the hero and
heroine, until climax is gradually
reached ut which there comes a sus.
pense that has been growing from the
beginning OF the play and is powerful in
its intensity.

Iariett Clarke Looney In Jefferson Review:
We Of the younger generation realize
little OF the perils and privations the
pioneers endured in early times. My
parents were pioneers, and | revere the
memory OF those mothers who came
across the plains bringing their little
ones into land of toll and danger, and
cannot think one of them more dcserv-
ing than another when OF all it could be
said: "She hath done what she could. 4"
Who did more than Mr.. and Mrs. Bates

afford it, too Mrs. Bates never ceased
TO work in her humble way, and the
church she and her husband helped
stands today living monument to their
memory. They lived here, died here
and are buried here.
Uncle John Harrison and his wife
were devoted Christians and helped
school and church, They were proud Of
the development OF this land. They
too, are gone, and their children should
rise up and call them blessed" "
Was not Grandma Bellinger desery-

Mrs. Ruby Looney's name was used
in the forming OF this Cabin. She and
her husband came across the plains in
1913 with the Applegates, Waldo, Mes.

A SUGGESTION TO SoCALLED
FUSIONISTS.

The Peoples Press Of Albany presents
the following plan upon which it thinks
it might be possible for the people to get
together for u reform in state politics:
"'Let the chairman of the different par
ties, Democratic, Peoples Party, Mid
Road Peoples Party, Silver Republican
any any anti-republcan organization
call for announcements OF candidates Tor
the various offices, which can be done by
petition or by announcement in the pa
pers and then call precinct primary cleo
tions, and invite all parties who are OPP
posed to the Republican party as now
managed TO attend these primary cleo
tions and vote for their choice OF the
various candidates, which elections
shall be conducted just as any regular
election and the ballot guarded just "a
securely, which ballots shall be brought
10 the county seat and canyassedi and
the person receiving the highest number
of votes for any given Office shall be de-
clared the nominee for that office, re-
gardless Of former party alIiliation.
"Thepeople can meet then in masscon
yention and determine under what name
they will be known, and formulate a plat
form or declaration Of principles, or this
can be done even before the election"
win the Peoples Press kindly consid-
er the following amendment? Instead
of the chairmen OF the different parties,
AS party men, taking the initiative, lei
responsible men, as citizens, take hold
OF the movement. Let it be as open to
Republicans as TO others, let all act as
simple American citizens, of Oregon,
leaving partisanship of every brand out
OF the matter entirely.
Do not be afraid that this might re-
suit in the capture OF the organization
by the Republicans. Let the matter be
handled in such manner that the peo-
pie can take swipe at the head OF
professional CRATER as soon as he raises
il. And it would be no detriment to
the ticket ii some OF the right kind OF
Republicans should he placed ON it by
popular vote.
Let the brethren consider the eNper-
ience of the city of Salem. Without the
help of the better class of Republicans,
acting as individuals, nothing could
have been accomplished but with their
lead the city has been redeemed from
she slough of despond into which the
gang" had run her, and placed ON the
solid ground OF financial solvenoy'
An anti.Republican movement is not
a non.partisan movements am anti
CRATER movement may he one, ard there
are lots OF good men in the Republican
party who will act with genuine non
partisan citizens movement in local al
fairs. |
