F, it's regret that the Farmers Union at it's recent session, voted to have noth- ing to do with the negro Farmers Union The Executive Committee presented a report in which it was stated that it had been hoped that there might be some work upon which the two organizations could get together and act in concert It was declared that the negro union represents a great body of farmers who want the assistance of the white union farmers.

There were about 75 delegates at the con Vention, representing 19 counties.

BoYIsH MIND WAS WORKING.
Younester on His First Sail Over the
 Raging Main"

None of us ever quite forget those days-when our years were few-of dreaming about life on the raging main, when the imagination reveled in pirates and plunder from state ly galleons and valorous deeds done on storm-swept decks, says writer in the New York Times. Recollection of this period is, at any rate, suffi- ciently vivid. so that the remark of a small boy could contribute maSo- rially to the "gayety of nations. ' among the passengers on one of the excursion steamers running from Manhattan across the harbor to Coney Island
 The steamer made her way across the bay, lodging tugs and ferryboats fortunately meeting no pirate craft. The passengers, escaping gladly from the eitys heat, nibbled their sand wiches and enjoyed the breeze. The walters moved about the deck with their trays. The boy. just from the inland town. where his life so far had been spent, sat rapt and wide eyed. If one could but know fully the mental content from which sprang his words at last,
 Maj he cried, hoarsely. tell me which one of 'em is the skipper"

of Importance to Arkansas Land Own

< decision has been handed down in the United States Court of Appeals at St Louis which may affect the own CTS of thousands of acres of land in Arkansas. The ease was one where tbe original owners sued to reclaim title 10 nearly a thousand acres of land in Crittenden county, Arkansas, which had been sold for taxes in sults prosecuted by the St Francis leYee district The original owner was A. II Johnson The land was sold for taxes to Charles W. Hunter. Rebecca A. Johnson. the plaintiff and an heir, claimed that proper notice Was not given that tax suit was pehdlns' The District Court of Arkansas, now ever. affirmed the sale. The ease was appealed. and the court Tn St. Louis decided that because no am davit was filed tc show that Johnson was not in Crittendon county and was a resident of Ohio, as alleged, the de cision was reversed. If Johnson haa been in the county at the time the suit was filed. he should have been served with notice. The notice was published. as was right. if he were not in the county. The leaving out of the affidavit, which probably was done in other like cases, caused the title to be reverted 10 the original owners. Johnson was the head of the Land and Lumber Company.

THE GOOD TIME COMING.
BY Rev. Henry T. Conc.

Jesus came into Galllee preaching
the gospel Of the kingdom Of God-
Mark l., IA.
Humanity has always believed in
the coming Of the kingdom Of God.
1t has always looked for day when
discords should cease, when the will
OF the all loving Lord Of all should be
the law for all. 1t has never at heart
believed that oppression, injustice, and
the suffering that springs from selfish
ness and sin were normal to us, could
ever be right, or were even irremedia-
Bile. Deep in us all there is the con-
victlon that there is in this world a
power that works for righteousness,
Tor peace, for higher forms of living,

Short Meter Sermons.

The servile cannot serve.
Honest prayer kills pride.
Atheism is simply moral anarchy.
Rites have done little for the right.
Killing time is throwing life away.
Praying for ease is asking to be an
invalid.
No church is rich unless the poor sit
In her pews.
Trimmed truth does not improve its
appearance.
The smaller a mans line the larger
will be his Busy sign.
Ecclesiastical log rolling furnishes
the devil with plenty Of fuel.
The less man thinks of his virtues
the greater their value.
Your opinion of life may be but re-
Election Of life's opinion of you.
A donkey may buy a degree for
cash, but he cannot conceal his brogue.
The time to be most wary of new
sin is when you bury an old one.
1t does not make the saints tender
hearted to keep them in hot water.
The dominance Of one church will
not cure the differences Of the many.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1906-01-05

returned with a vengeance to make
towards of freshmen and brutes of
sophomores. The latest outbreak is the
worst on record. Collegians are men
in the commission of misdeeds-and
boys when about to be punished for
them. The law Of the land is some
thing to be despised and outraged by
them at every turn-until brought face
to face with its majesty, when they
are only too ready to take advantage
of their legal infancy to escape its
penalties. Hazing is inevitably a
breach Of the law of the land. To enter
a freshman's room unbidden for the
commission of an assault upon him Is
burglary. The intent to do him bodily
harm, as shown by the ordinary tricks
played by sophomores, is punishable
by fine and Imprisonment. To lock
him up is false Imprisonment, another
felony. 1t is the business, the sworn
duty, Of every officer of the law in col
lege towns to see that no hazing takes
place A few well-directed words from
fathers, who should realize that youth
is the time in which respect for the
law should be taught, will do much to
bring these hazers to a realization of
their real place in the world. To lie,
to steal, to assault and batter, to kid
nap, to commit burglary, to be guilty
of malicious mischief are not what the
manly man regards as jests, even in
his own sons.

New Jersey is up in arms over the
automobile outrages which make it un-
safe for an equestrian to venture on
the public highways. Inasmuch as
these highways have been built and
are maintained by the taxpayers in
general, demand is made for the use
of these roads with reasonable de-
gree of safety, and societies are being
organized to enforce the rights of the
law-abiding many as against the usur-
patlons of the lawless few.

The Roar Was InaudfbIe.

Travellers from the United States, af.
ter visit to England and the Con.
tlnent, are usually willing to acknowI.
edge that there is shrill quality In
the voices Of American women. The
New York Tribune tells of a party of
tourists who were on their way to
visit a famous waterfall, when the
power Of American vocal organs was
well illustrated.
For two hours they ascended the
quiet, pleasant road.
I'VE are nearly there now," the
guide said at last, and with revived
spirits the tourists pressed on.
How much farther, guide?" asked,
a little later, young man whose boots
were tight.
"Only short distance, sir" was the
answer. "As soon as the ladies stop
talking you will hear the roar"
