THE REAL KICK.

The Dallas Observer devotes two
columns Of its last issue to a kick
against the management Of the Polk
county exhibit at the Fair. The short
comings of the authorities responsible
! for Polk's exhibit have been gone over
by this paper and the Observer, though
waiting little late, is justified in
stating the exhibits not what it ought
to be. But this paper would caution
the Observer against kicking. Don't
kick all the time and everything in
sight. It's so easy to find fault, so
hard to be faultless. Above all, don t
lay the fault of man at the door of
woman. In seeking the real source
OF complaint against the management
of Polk's exhibit, don't heap it all on
poor Mrs. Wolfe. Don't lambaste her
while shielding Fence-In In-The- Road
Seth Riggs and Letter Writer Ed. F.
Coad. This papers advice is against
kicking, but, if the Observer persists
in maintaining itself as the official
kicker Of Polk county, and it can't
help kicking on this occasion, kick the
right spot, If Mrs Wolfe desires to
take few moments off to stroll down
the Trail or go up in the balloon there
is no serious objections on the part of
the people Of Polk county. 1t was not
Mrs. Wolfe who gave away four feet
Of the space across the end of the space
allotted the county. Mrs. Wolfe can
not be charged with dereliction Of
duty because the com mittees appointed
by the county organization failed to
get together the material asked for.
This paper disagrees with the Observer
as to who is originally and principally
responsible for the Polk county ex-
hibit 1t cannot see any objections,
that should stand, however, against
Commissioner Seth Riggs occupying
the Polk county booth with Mrs. Wolfe
and assisting in entertaining guests
and booming Polk county. .-Indepen-
dence West Side.
1t seems to US that the editor of the
West Side has completely missed the
point at issue. 1t is not so much a
question of whether Polk's exhibit is
great or small as it is of keeping what
we have there clean and attractive.
II Mrs. Wolfe desires to take a few
moments off to stroll down the Trail
or go up in the balloon" as suggested
by the Independence editor, we think
no one will offer any serious objec-
tions, if she will only take time todust
off the fruit jars and throw out a few
plates of rotten fruit before she goes.
And if she should take a notion to
spend few weeks at home putting
away her hay crop, while her time at
Portland goes on at the rate Of $l75
month, we think the taxpayers would |
bear up and try to look cheerful, if |
she would only leave instructions with
her daughter to keep the moldy whisk-
ers on the late cherries trimmed down |
to decent length. We are good
natured people over here in Polk |
brother, and we are not given
to kicking, but when our Court pays
expert wages, it has right to expect
and demand reasonably expert service.

Dragged to Death.

Conrad Winterstein, young man
10 years old, was thrown from his
horse and dragged to death at Airlie,
Wednesday. He was driving goats
when his horse became refractory and
threw him. In falling, the young
mans foot caughtiu the saddle rigging
and he was dragged several hundred
feet, receiving injuries from which he
died soon afterward. The victim Of
the accident was we'll known in the
Luckiamute neighborhood, and his
untimely death has cast a gloom over
the community.

Good Roads Association, gave stere-
opticon lecture on the subject of ''The
Roads of the World" in Baker City
last Thursday night He divided his
time between growing at the operator
OF the machine and discussing war
history, which leads the editor of the
Maverick to remark "The time may
come when it will be possible to build
good roads with magic lanterns and
orations on civic morality. Pending
that time, however, the good old way
of employing pick and shovel, scraper
and roller, will obtain in Baker City"

LEWIS OLIN.

Lewis Olin was found dead in his
door-yard at Falls City, Tuesday eve
ming, at 6 o'clock. A neighbor who
was passing the house saw the old
man lying face downward in the yard,
and, upon going TO his assistance,
found that he was dead. The dead
mans face was slightly bruised where
it had come in contact with the hard
ground. Mr.. Olin had been suffering
from heart disease for several years.
He lived alone in a cabin in the edge
of town, near the Christian church.
Mr.. Olin was native of New York,
and was &C years old. He was a
veteran of the Civil War. He was a
quiet, inoffensive citizen. and was
respected by the people of his town.
He leaves two sons and three
daughters, all grown.
Coroner R. L. Chapman was called
to Falls City, but after investigating
the case and finding no indications of
foul play, decided that no inquest was
necessary.

The Russian-Japanese peace con-
ference bids fair to end in scrap

The Independence West Side takes
the OBSERVER to task for registering a
kick against Mrs. Wolfe's manage
ment Of the Polk county exhibit at
Portland, and then proceeds to read
us brief lesson against kicking in
general. This sounds funny, coming
as it does from an editor who is
entitled to the palm as the biggest
kicker in Polk county. Even in
the paragraph in which he breaches
his little sermon to the OBSERVER
against the evils of kicking, he can
not lay down his pencil without taking
a shot at the County Court the mem
bers Of which have lately been the
especial objects Of his displeasure.
Commissioner Riggs is pleasingly
referred to as "Fence-in-the- Road"
Riggs. Judge Coad is called by the
endearing title of Letter Writer,
Coad. Only the week before, Polk
county's chief magistrate was affeo-
tionately referred to as Judge Butt
insky." Commissioner Riddell is
somehow overlooked, but it is only
reasonable to presume that this faith
ful officer will receive his proper title
later on from the genius who pre-
sides over the destinies Of the West
Side newspaper and who doesn't be-
lieve in kicking"

and historical reasons for Sabbath
keeping will be clearly set forth by
Pastor F. M. Burg, Seventh Day Ad-
