Has Found Girl of his OhOice.

When Victor Moses appeared
on the streets Monday morning,
accompanied by a beautiful young
stranger everybody began to
look pleased and Vic himself
had smile, that with all his
efforts to look unconcerned,
wouldn't come off but staid right
there. But Vic says he is not
married, that his cousin from
Arkansas is visiting her relatives
here and that she was being
"shown" the city. Vic, however,
did say positively that in his re-
cent visit to tie scenes of his
ear i r days, he had found the
girl of his choice, and that in
about year he is going back to
Arkansas again or probably she
might consent to come out here
to Oregon before that time.
Mr.. Moses is glad indeed to be
back to Oregon. The tbnnder
and lightning and hot weather
were too much for him.
Speaking about advancement,
there are parts Of Missouri and
where anti-bellum con-
dltions still exist. People still |
live in log cabins and whole
families will some times occupy
a single room. The mineral and
agricultural industries are de-
rapidly, however, and
the Missouri and Arkansas of to-
day are general speaking On a
par with those of the most ad-
vanced states. In the vicinity of
Mr.. Moses home the peach crop
was very large, one family ship
ping 28 carloads and one small
:own alone shipped 2o1z carloads
