GROWING IN POPULARITY.

IT was a very clever scheme of
the railroads of this country to give
birth to the slogan "See America
First because all over America
the newspapers have picked it up
and coined column after column OF
gush from IT,
The desired end is a most ex-
ceilent one TO gain: but why should
the newspapers do all the work and
the railroads reap all the rewards
The railroads of this great north.
west do not have the same open
policy possessed by their brethren
of the east. nor do the papers here,
acting upon the selfish precedent OF
the railroads, have any sincere love
for the roads.
When the railroads of the north
west pursue the same liberal policy
adopted in all civilized communities
the newspapers will do more than
their share of urging people to "Scc
America First" We're IL not for
the country press thousands ol
localities would fail 20 be brought
into prominence: and IL is to this
same country press all railroads
should cater.

FRIENDS,
A Well-Ba, ked Candi late.

Nearly all the older residents in
this county either personally know
or feel fairly acquainted by popular
ity with S. c. Beach, of Portland.
He has been before the public in
various capacities for a number Of
years, and all who have kept track
Of his work for this portion of the
county realize that he has few
superiors as an official. His term
in the legislature was marked by
fair dealing and II is asserted by
those who are in a position to know
that he lost no opportunity TO do
good work for this section OF the
county.
Mr.. Beach is now before the
public as an aspirant for the position
Of state senator on the republican
ticket, and asks that he be given
that support which his past acts
have merited. We shall have more
to say of this matter a; later date.

GUSHING GUSH.

EVEN in this democratic country
1t is estimated that fully five
hundred thousand columns OF stuff
have been printed about a mere
wedding Frankly speaking 1t is
two thirds rot and the other third
is maudlin idiocy.
Just as good couples are married
every day--and a dozen lines tell
the story of each. Alice Roosevelt
happened to have father who is
as truly a ruler of America as this
great country has ever enjoyed
while Nicholas Longworth was
sufficiently lucky to gain her as a
wife. Farther than these two facts
there is nothing about the person
ality of either of the couple to make
them better, grander, or greater
than the thousands who are con-
tinually entering upon a like part
nership.
The American people to a certain
extent delight to gush over any
thing in society circles and in order
to satisfy this yearning column after
column is written. When one
stops and calmly considers the case
he wonders why so much comment
is made upon a simple marriage.
Why all this balderdash over an
affair which resulted from two
people being stuck on each other
America, as a nation, is getting
tired of grand stand plays.

NOTHING DOING.
Audience Disappointed AT The Lack
Of Anticipated Fireworks.

AT the adjourned meeting of the
council Wednesday evening there
was a lack of excitement. Mayor
King was in the chair and only
Councilman Leggett and Lindquist
were absent.
Bills to the amount of S22 were
audited and ordered paid.
The Miner note, amounting with
interest to S449. so, was reported
paid.
Deputy-recorder Downs made
his declaration of principles: it was
either SIoo per month for him OF
Goodbye, Annie, Must Leave
You, for him. He had set his
stake and wouldn't back down. II
was the general idea that SIoo was
too much--especially as there was
still $40 per month going to Re
corder Hanks.
A proposition was received from
Otis Learned and another from
Elmer Hanna: both agreed to take
the job at 500. A Mr.. Churchill
consented to take the place at $40.
but after discussing the thing at
some length it was made apparent
that the council did not appoint Mr..
Downs as deputy-nor could /,
accept his resignation. Attorney
Greene offered to do the work free
until Recorder Hanks was able to
work.
II was finally moved that Re-
corder Hanks be notified to have a
deputy for business Thursday
morning.
