tax collector, let the dear people alone
for few days and took trip to the
Lewis and Clark. He arrived home
again this week. He says be was on
the grounds early and late for six con
secutive days and "took it all in" from
the Trail to the government building.
We bet if John missed anything it
would not be worth putting on the
assessment roll.
Mike Rock got on an Indian pony
last Saturday The pony stumbled
and the big bruiser tumbled. Hitting
the ground broke his collar bone and
/ injured him internally. DIR. Woodard
was called and patched him up. He is
at his home yet with chances of re-
covering. Remembrance of the
cowardly and brutal assault he made
on us some two years ago, deprives
him of any sympathy from us and the
better people in this community.
Mr.. and Mrs James Beaton and their
daughter Mary, of Dewey, left this
morning for Puget Sound, of course to

Mr.. and Mrs. Beaton lived for several
years at Seattle, aud the Sound country
still has strong hold on their affec-
tions They will look about them
while there and try to pick up plat of
ground for the purpose of some time
making it their permanent home, but
will return here to lay up sheckels a
while longer.

returned the fore part of the week,
from delightful visit to the Portland

They accompanied DR.. Sanders to the
latter city, where the Standard Oil
company is expending immense sums

city she ever visited. "Oh, you and my
girls don't know what you missed by
not going there when you we're on the
soundr' said she.
