NOT REPRESENTED.

For at least II years Rhode
Island has been represented
in the United States senate
by men who have no interest
in Rhode Island. Its senior
senator 20 years ago entered
public life as a man OF mod
crate means, but during his
service in the federal legisla-
ture has amassed a princely
fortune. He may have faith
fully represented Rhode ISL
and at first, but has long
since ceased to represent it
and is now simply the repre-
sentative of the monopolistic
corporations and the preda-
tory trusts"

4 Most Delightful Dancing Party.

By unanimous consent, the most
delightful social event Of the season
transpired last Wednesday evening
when Mr.. and Mrs p. s. Davidson,
Mr.. and Mrs. N. W. Bone, Mr.. and
Mrs. A. j. Graham and Mr. and Mrs.
G. N. Clarke gave a supper dance TO
their many friends. The usually un-
attractive interior of the opera house
was transformed into green bower
Of attractiveness and beauty by the
decorations of fir and Oregon grape.
A raised platfoI m in one corner of the
dancing floor near the entrance was
similarly decorated, upon which the
Portland orchestra, which was engaged
for the occasion, produced music that
stirred the feet of even the most staid
person present. The stage was used
for the purpose of serving luncheon
and was decorated and admirably ar
ranged for this purpose. I'ere dainty
refreshments and coffee we're served
in the intervals Of dancing, without
the usual Inconvenience OF having to
leave the room. The gathering was a
large one and the affair heartily en-
joyed by all, as was evidenced by the
many congratulations and Fluctuations
Of the guests to their hosts and host

RAILROAD STATION
TO BE AT BINGEN

+. II. Fogarty, General Freight
Agent of the Portland & Seattle rail
road, and r. W. Cook, one of the
other officials of that road, came here
last Saturday and met delegation
from White Salmon at the Waucoma
Hotel, where the former were stop
ping. The object of the meeting was
to settle the question as to the loca-
tion of the railroad station on the
north bank.
The White Salmon people recently
presented petition to the railroad
company asking them to locate the
station there. At the meeting they
we're informed that the company had
decided to locate it at Bingen, giving
as their reason that there was no room
at White Salmon near enough to the
railroad to make 5idings or establish
town site.
1t is said to be the intention of the
company to make Bingen the end OF
division and to build shops there.

coTmittee consisting of Geo. Wishart

Join the society free Of cost as she is
an accomplished musician and her

by the society.
A committee consisting of Mr.. Nor
ton, Mrs. Larwood and Mace Baldwin
were appointed to arrange a program
for the entertainment that Is to be
given in the near future We expect
Jolly good time at the entertainment
for the committee is the right sort
and they have good material to work
with.
The members had most enjoyable
time under head of literary exercises.
Louis Burkhard gave one of his fam.
GUS yodels Just as he used to In Der
Faderland Miss Morton & ng song
in her sweet voice that once heard is
not easily forgotten. Miss Wigle re-
cited piece about the business abil
ity of two Dichers that we're trying
to do business on the Yankee plan.
Mrs. Larwood read about the troubles
Of a boys debating society where every
one was president, speaker and judge,
there we're some useful pointers illus
trated which | think our society
should adopt at its next meeting.
Donald Larwood repeated the verse
from Grsy's Eulogy that General Wolf
Is said to have repeated just before
his death at the siege of Quebec.
Ida Morton, Hattie Cooper and Fred
Wishart we're appointed a committee
on literary exercises for next thursday
evening.
Ten minutes recess was declared by
the president during which the men,
bers good naturedly told each other
| lust how it was done and how those
that had taken active part should lave
done.
After the meeting was called to or
der Mr.. Morton took the floor and
drilled the class in singing Mr.. Nor
ton has hard uphill fight as instruc-
tor in vocal music, for the majority
of us know about as much of music
as cayote does of the Sunday clos
ing law. We are all as bashful as a
ten year old boy when he goes to see
his best girl for the first time. We
wait for the others to sing first with
the result that Mr.. Morton does the
singing and we do the silent act. Mr..
Morton don t receive much encourage
ment, but If bis voice and fists hold
out he will make singers Of us. We
may not be able to yodle like Mr..
Burkhard or sing like Patti, but we
can make noise enough to scare the
wolf from our door.
