THE SPURIOUS CONGRESS.

The Sixtieth Congress has pass
ed into history as the Spurious
Congress. 1t has done nothing
worthy Of a great representative
body. In it's appropriations, it
has been more extravaganza tnan
any of it's predecessors, and VIII WI
leave the government $50, oU,O oo
in arrears on the first day OF July
next, and $3.50, OOO,00 in arrears
on July /, 1909, SO that money Will
have to be borrowed even for rur-
ming expenses. It has refused to
modify the tariff even on wood
pulp and print paper. It has
enacted currency legislation OF the
worst possible type, legislation
not in favor Of the interests OF the
people at large, but Of Wall Street.
II has upheld the President in
his wild and dangerous assertion
Of the supremacy of the military
over the civil power. It's sins OF
commission and its sins OF omls-
sion are equally fragrant, because
both are as bad as possible. It's
adjournment should be welcomed
by the American people. The
only defect il our Constitution is
that it requires this Congress to
meet again before its dissolution.

CARD OF THANKS.

FRANKLIN, La, June 10th, 1908.
AS commander of the Florian
Cornay Camp U. c. v, No. 345, I
would be recreant to my duty to my
fellow Comrades, and would do violence
to my own feelings if | did not on
behalf of the Florian Cornay Camp
from the bottom of my heart, return to
the st. Mary Volunteers Chapter,
Daughters Of the Confederacy, our
heartfelt thanks for their loving kind
ness and generous aid extended US
at our reunion on the 3rd inst.
And to those thoughtful and sympa-
thetic ladies and gentlemen who assist
ed the Daughters in our behalf, we
can only assure them that they have
secured warm spot in the hearts of
the sold Veterans.
We sincerely appreciated the COM
panionship of the Sons of Veteran S
who favored us with their presence,
and very much regret that. so many of
their companions were absent. We
very much enjoyed the presence of
both, our visiting and home guests:
but above all, we were filled with pride
and Joy to have been honored and
encouraged by the presence of Mrs.
Martha Foster, Mrs. John A. O'Niell,
ST., Mrs. c. NJ. Smith and Mrs. J. X.
Gourdain. whose presence brought
back most vivi1ly the terrible drama
OF almost d half Century ago, remind
ing us of the loving and tender devo-
ton they displayed towards the Con-
federate soldier, and their deep
concern for the cause for which these
soldiers fought.
Memories of those days away back
yonder are fas. fading away and
unless kept alive by those who are to
follow us, all will be lost.
Most faithfully,
THOS. j. SHAFFER.

The following touching epic
from an unknown pen is old, yet
ever new: st. Peter sits by the
heavenly gate, his hands on the
strings of q Tyre, and he sings a
low song as he patiently waits for
the souls of those who expire. He
hears in the distance the chorus of
song, that swells from the foot of
the throne, and he smiles as the
music is waited along, and MARBLES
q lay Of his own. "There is room
in this region for millions Of souls,
who by sorrow and woe are beref:,
'tfs for those who have suffered the
melody rolls, but the kicker must
turn to the left. There is room
here for people who. when they
were young, persisted in sowing
wild oats, yet who doomed up
their cities with sinew and tongue,
but the kicker must go with the
goats. There is room for the
people who pointed with pride to
the beauty and growth Of their
town, who kept singing it's praises
aloud till they died, but the kicker
will please amble down. They'd
say that the music was all out Of
tune, and the angelic robes were
hand-me-downs; and they'd send
Tor jeweler of to the moon, to
sample the gold of their crowns.
Now, while there il room for mil
Hans souls who by sorrow and
roe are bereft, We want no com-
rlfpk ~ xaRolc thaf rails. %

FOLLY OF TWO ELECTIONS.

Fixing the time for the state elec-
ton of Oregon five months prior to
the date of the regular presidential
election was almost as big a piece OF
folly as locating the state capital SO
miles from the center Of population
and metropolis of the state.
At the coming election in June the
voters will have an opportunity to
vote TO change the date Of the state
election to correspond with the presi-
Dental election and thus save thous-
ands Of dollars of needless expense
to taxpayers. This amendment should
pass by a large majority
The folly of the present plan is
made plain on a presidential year
when two elections must be held in
Oregon, two election bills paid and
two Interruptions to the business reg
u!arity Of the state, must be submit
ted to.
Let US have one election date and
do away with this June election which
is a needless expense and a waste Of
time and vital force.

A TOAST TO THE MEN.

Here's to the men since Adams time
They've always been the same;
Whenever anything goes wrong,
The woman is to blame.
From early morn to late at night.
The men fault-finders are.
They blame us If they oversleep,
or If they miss a car.
They blame us If, beneath the bed,
Their collar buttons roll;
They blame us If the fire is out
Or IL there Is no coal:
They blame us If they cut themselves
While shaving and they swear
That we're to blame If they decide
To go upon a tear.
Here's to the men, the perfect men!
Who never are at fault;
They blame US If they chance to gel
The pepper for the salt.
They blame us If their business fails.
Or back a losing horse:
And when II rains on holidays
The fault Is ours, OF course.
They blame US when they fall In love
And when they married get;
Likewise they blame us when they're
sick,
And when they fall in debt.
For everything that crisscross goes
They say we are to blame;
But, after all, here's to- the men,
We love them just the same!

EXPENSIVE ECONOMY.

The railroads, which have cut their
force OF employees as low as possible
and have allowed their cars, tracks
and locomotives to get in bad repair,
now announce that they will need
from 25O, 900 to 300, 900 men this sum-
mer and fall to help in the work Of
repairing roadbeds, tracks and ma
chlnery says the Spokane Chronicle.
They may find, in the end, that
their extreme economy was costly, for
now much work will have to be
crowded into limited time in order to
move next autumn's crop.
The net result may be that much
of the railroad equipment will be in
POOR condition next fall and that there
will be another car shortage.

TO USE SNAKE RIVER.

Snake river, obstructed with boul-
ders and confined between its tower
ing perpendicular walls, crooked ds a
snake, in reality, flowing through the
desert for hundreds Of miles, is to be
utilized for irrigation at last.
The senate OF the United States
yesterday passed measure permit
ting the construction of a dam by the
Benton County Power company at
Five Mile rapids, Is miles above the
mouth of the Snake, and 1t is UNDER
stood that this company will con-
struct a massive dam there and divert
water for power and irrigation.
The desert lying on all sides of Five
Mile rapids is highly productive. 1t
is rich, sandy, sagebrush land, and
will produce peaches, grapes, berries,
garden or fruit of any known variety
in a bunch.
From the power site electricity
could be supplied to Pendleton, Walla
Walla, Spokane, North Yakima, Lew
iston. and to all points in the inland
empire. The power possibilities are
beyond conception. If you can i'm
agine what power this magnificent
stream, turning the wheels of electric
motors, could produce, you have a
faint insight into the meaning of this
dam and its outcome.
Wires could be strung throughout
the inland empire from the huming
motors of Five Mile rapids and with
in an incredible short time electric
lines could be in operation, homes
and country settlements could be
lighted and the inland empire would
literally shine with the hidden forces
of the magnificent Snake river.
