THE "GROUND HOG"
SEES HIS SHADOW

Thursday, February 2, was Candle
mas Day, or probably more extensively
known as ''ground hog day." and if
the Old superstition holds good THAT
if the ground hog coming from his
retreat, sees his shadow on that day,
he will retire for another six weeks
of cold weather, Then surely we
ARE in for it, The sun rose bright,
and clear on that morning in this
section of the country and continued
to shine throughout the greater part
of the day: so accordi ag to our idea,
'twOuld have taken a pretty near
sighted wOOdchuck that couldn't
have seen his shadow. Be advised in
time, then, and see that your wood
sheds and coal-bins are full to keep
your nests warm for another six
weeks of cold weather.
Candlemas. church festival, has
been chosen in Scotland as one Of the
flour term days" The festival
commentaries the publication of the
Virgin: and the obServanceS to which
it owns its name, viz, the lighting of
candles, and in the Roman Catholic
church, the conservation Of the
candles which are used for ecclesias-
tical purposes, are said to nave an
emblematical reference to the
prophecy of Simeon that the child
Jesus should become "a light TO
tighten the Gentiles." The institution
of this feast dates probably from the
reign of Justinian, and the year 542 is
sometimes fixed upon as that OF its
first celebration. 1t is supposed to
have grown out of heathen festivals
held this month, view which is
supported by the following consider
atiOns: 1st, the word February
connected with Februare) denotes
publication; End, in this month the
publication of the people took place:
3rd, the rites of the Lupercalia, which
were celebrated on the 18th, included
the lighting of candles, in alIusion to
| those used by Ceres in her search for
Proserpine, and 4th. the origin of
ouher Christian feastS appears TO have
been similar.

ing the things that build up a town.

All the bonuses and all the dOna
tions of whatever kind. all of tn
hours of time necessary for the uI
building of the town fall on a feS
bIs.iness men, who give more freel
of their money and time than the
can really afford to get these thing
and it is the same small number VIII,
each and every time must carry thes,
loads.
The same merchant who is called
on by the public every week for some
thing is the same haunted individual
| that must often carry for smOnthS a
| large part of the IS per cent re.
ferred to, for the neceSSarieS of life
and who. every one of them at the
end of the year, could with good
reason charge off to loss no small
amount of so called assets.
1t is not right that few should
carry this load of building up a town
and there is no other way that all
who get the benefits of so much
good as that which comes to US from
added industries are made to con-
tribute their just share. Excepting
our honorable mayor. is among the
few who never fails to do at least and
possibly more than his share. l know
OF no member of the council excepting
two and they are merchants, that goes
down into his pockets at the call of
the many demands to cOntri-
butte for the benefits of the city.
We have an organization known as
the Advancement Association. As
chairman of one of it's committees and
as member who has given and is
still ready to give of his time to every
good thing for the benefit of this
town feel that ! have right to
object to the councils action because
of its very decided bad effect on the
work of this Association. lind that
our action is already known in other
towns about us and will become more
generally known and that this AS
sociation might just as we'll quit and
it's members devote all their energies
to their own personal and selfish aims
as many of the ObjectorS to this me-
thOd Of obtaining industries already
do. if this is the kind of support we
receive from the balance and greatly
benefited portion of our fellowtoW MS
men. If there is any good reason why
the whole of this sum should not be
returned to the Consolidated Com
pany the exact an cunt can without
doubt be adjusted, but to repudiate
the whole spirit and pledge of this
town to these people on the ground
solely that it is illegal is little short
Of blackmail. Every good citizen of
this. our town, who has its interests
really at heart should stimulate such
an interest among the members of
the council that this matter be
brought up at next Tuesdays meet
ing and adjusted with the Consoli-
dated Company in just a nd equitable
manner for this aud next year.

Norway's Secession.

The editor of the Nordiske Blade,
Mr.. Siguard Folkstad, writes for Col
lier's of June "a, on the reasons for
Norway's independence, and in part
says:
The main reason why King Oscar
was dethroned is that he represented
aristocratic Sweden against demo-
cratic Norway, and therefore was un-
able to carry out the thoughts of
freedom, equality and sovereignty
which are expressed in the constitu-
tion of Norway.
The Swedish democratic people
love Norway. Thousands have emf
grated to Norway, being now some of
its industrious and democratic citi-
zens; and as many are working there
from time to time, the ideas of free
dom. self-possession and social-politi-
cal betterment spread through them
to every part of Sweden. 1t is Nor
ways hope for Sweden that the Swed-
ish aristocracy soon may be out of
power. In this wish the great auth
ors, the best politicians. the liberal
party, and the masses of the demo-
cratic class in Sweden unite with
Norway. ..
Sweden is quickly approaching the
day when its industrious, intelligent
people will break the power by which
the Swedish aristocracy are now hold
ing them under an unworthy yoke.
And at last Norway, the land of
the Vikings, who 800 years ago dis
covered America, which they called
"Vinland"-Norway, the land of the
explorer Fridtjof Nansen, the authors
Ibsen and Bjornson, the musician
Edv. Grieg, and the hundreds of scien-
lists who for the last century have
participated illustriously in the Euro
pean work of culture-the fatherland
of one of the most intelligent and able
elements of the United States-is too
free and self-respecting to be ruled by
Swedish aristocracy.

The Worlds shipping.

The American consul at Rome says
that recent statistics published In
France estimate the total tonnage Of
the worlds merchant marine at &c.
642, 900, and the number of vessels at
24.S53, about equally divided between
steam and sail. The tonnage of the
former, however, is much larger, be-
ing about 30,000,000 against $500. 900
for sailing vessels. While the build
ing of big and bigger ships has been
a feature of the business for the last
quarter of century, the greater part
of the worlds goods is still carried
by vessels of moderate tonnage. The
number of ships of more than 5000
tons is only SO. England leads in tom
mage with 100000. America follows
with 3r500,000. Germany and France
having each about half as much.
The list dwindles down along the line
of the other maritime countries,
reaching its minimum in Argentina,
which has about $4,000 tons.-New
York Tribune.

Every cent of the 100000 it was
necessary to raise as bonus to secure
the extension of the Weed railroad
from the timber holding of that COM
pany in Siskiyou county. Cal. to
klamath Falls. has been subscribed,
the last dollar needed having been
promised yesterday, says a klamath
Falls dispatch.
This assures the building of the
railroad extension and is a great thing
for this section. 1t also is a great
thing for Sacramento and San Fran
cisco. For It means that the constant
ly growing trade of this region will 60
to these two cities; that California
and not Oregon, will reap the benefit
of the commerce.
The Weed railroad extends from the
town of that name in Siskiyou coun-
ty. a distance of "a miles. to the big
timber holdings of the company. From
the present terminus of the road, 1t is
IS miles to klamath Falls. and the
route will be along the north slope
OF MI. SndStd, VIA SHeep tNOCh L ass
and Grass valley. 1t is too soon, of
course. to say when construction work
will begin. but it will not be allowed
to lag If the people of this place can
help IT. Enthusiasm is at white heat.
AS pointed out by W. s. Worden,
secretary of the chamber of COM
merce of klamath Falls. this section,
both in a geographical and COM
mercial sense. belongs to California.
For that reason when the bonus
lacked $4,000 of the amount de-
manded. appeals were made to the
business men of Sacramento and San
Francisco and practically the sum
asked for was given.
The population of this county is now
about 5000, and in the portion of it to
be benefited by the governments s5.-
OOO, 900 irrigation and reclamation
plan including also the portions con-
cerned of the California counties of
Siskiyou and Modoc there are now g.
900 people. One hundred thousand
could be supported easily. The gov
ernment has set aside S4,400,000 for
its great project and 100000 of this
amount is now available.
