Judge Smith of the circuit court at
Pierre has granted a writ Of manda-

commissioners of Lyman county di-

show cause why they do not do SO.

will have to call the election, which
is to be prior to the first of April.

Among the portraits at the Royal
academy there are some which could
tell stories, some with little touches to
reveal the idiosyncrasies Of subjects
no less than of painters. Is the story
of Lawrence's portrait of the Duke Of
Wellington commonly known7 The
duke had Only one vanity-his wrist
was like steel. Now, when he was
given the sword of state to carry 1t
was his tnfnlte delight that he was
able to carry 1t upright. All his prede-
cessors had had TO slope 1t toward the
shoulder. He would go down to pos
terity, he resolved, glorifed by the
power Of his wrist. In vain Sir Thom-
as Lawrence pointed out that as a
matter of art it would never do; that
the sight of man perennially carry
ing a sword from his wrist would ia
tlgue those who looked at his picture
The duke insisted upon having his
way. Lawrence did manage to SNUG
gle In a cushion upon which the duke
seems to rest his elbow, but close ex.
animation shows that arm and cushion
do not meet.--London Sketch.

of rebating have been perfected against
the Southern Pacific company, through

shippers in reimbursement. Should
convictions be obtained on each OF
these cases, and the maximum penalty

POPULAR ADJUSTMENTS.

Every person of mature age is CAP
able of choosing his or her amusements; !;
every parent is responsible for the
early associates of children and con-
science and deoenoy and moderation
are the only judges.
In an advanced and progressive age
when the world is sweeping away from
the old oreeds, old dogmas, old "blue
laws" which have held people in fear
and trembling, it is folly to denounoe
ALL dancing and card playing as vul-
gar, vicious and evil.
There are evil forms of all these,
and many other popular amusements.
Harm can be made of almost any Gus
tom or practice of the human family.
But sane and wholesome people,
parents who know and respect the
laws of propriety and decency are not
to be condemned for indulging in in
nocent amusements which may not
snit people of different tastes and diff
ferent mental inclinations aud differ
ent oalibers.
There is middle ground, modera-
ton, sane level upon which people
must walk with conscience and self
respect, but because a corner dance
hall in down town district in st.
Louis or Chicago is indecent is no ex-
euse for oondemnlng all social dances
as such.
The place. the crowd and the sur
roundings make up the status of the
amusement and it is just as wrong to
condemn all dances as it would be to
condemn all ministers for the acts of
one. EAST Oregonian.
