An Imposition.

AS every reader of this paper knows
we are in favor of Hlllsboro being a
clean town. We advocated Clean Up
Day to the best of our ability. Tues
day at noon, however, we we're almost
sorry we had. AS we came up town
after dinner wagons we're dumping
the trash refuse collected from all
parts of town i'm the hollow at the foot
of High street hill.
Now 1T happens that we live near
this hollow and pass through 1t going
to and from our business. And while
we think it is very bad thing for
trash, rubbish and filth to be scatter
ed promiscously all over the town, we
don't relish having 1t dumped so near
our home. We don't think it is fair or
just for all the filth of the town TO be
gathered together and dumped in one
end of town.
To make matters worse the people
hauling this trash hardly got it off
the street. Tin cans, old stove pipes
and trash of all kinds is piled several
feet higher than the street and just
out of the way of travel. The corpor-
alton line is over a half mile beyond
this hollow.
Are the residents of this part of the
town not to be considered at all /?
Must it be the dumping place for all
the filth of the rest of the town2
EAppearances are not the only thing
TO be considered. 1t is a menace to
the health Of every resident of that
part of town.
If you think we are complaining of
something we ought not just put
yourself in the position of the resi-
dents of this section Of the town. How
would you like to have all of the filth
of the town gathered together and
dumped practically in your door yardp
This dumping ground is disgrace
to the town and menace to the
health Of many of its citizens.
Don't you think it is an imposition
and should be stopped?

Foolish Actions.

The introduction Of a third bill i'm
the state legislation attempting to
repeal the Rose County Local Option
Law is foolish action. This bill is
identically the same as the Dean
Fulton bill recently defeated.
We can not see what the liquor
people can hope to accomplish by keep
Ing up this agitation when there is no
possible chance of securing the passage
Of the bill
1t seems to us that the liquor people
in important matters exercise the
poorest judgment Of any class Of people
In the world. They seem to try to
disgust and drive away from their
cause all sensible and reasonable men
at every opportunity.
The legislature has plainly shown
by the defeat of the Dean and the
Dean-Fulton bills that there is no
chance of amending the Rose law dur
ing this session. The people are tired
Of the agitation, They want the
legislature 10 DO something besides
quarrel over attem ted liquor legisla-
tion. Senator Dean seems to think
that the only people to be considered
are the saloon keepers, brewers and
distillers. If when his present bill is
defeated, he will introduce another
one along the same line he will do the
liquor people more harm and help the
temperance cause more than all the
work the temperance people can do.
If the liquor people allowed the
temperance people to outline and plan
Just what steps they should take, we
doubt If the temperance cause would
be more benefited
If the liquor business is not abolish.
ed 1t will be in spite of the efforts of
the people engaged in it.

Attacked by Eagle.

This morning about ten O'Clock
while Bert Brown, farm hand, was
hauling fodder on the Ed. Pfeifer
farm four miles north Of this city, he
was viciously attacked by a huge
golden eagle, which fastened its long,
sharp talons in his clothes and tried
to gouge his eyes out with it's sharp
beak. The bird was slain with sled
standard after sharp, fierce struggle,
and Brown escaped without injury,
but with torn clothes.
Brown used his arms TO pro ect his
face and eyes, and In the struggle
that followed he was getting sthe
worst of 1t until he ran around the
shock ond seized a sled standard,
which he brought down upon the
eagles head just as 1t was In the act
of darling upon him again.
The bird measured 90 inches from
tip TO tip, and will be brought to this
city and placed upon exhibition

Lieutenant Oliphant Of the English
Army has been indefinitely postponed

the third or fourth time that she has

more than sickness behind the sud

wedding.
Miss Deacon, who is one Of four
famous sisters, who have all had more
or less matrimonial trouble. is noted
for her beauty and her conquests in
every capital in Europe. Although
she is intensely American, she was
born in Paris and knows very little
of her fatherland. She had scarcely
been launched in society when 1t was
rumored that she was engaged to the
Hon. Claude Lowther. Just when IL
was certain that her engagement
would be announced. the affair was
suddenly broken of.

Back To The Farm"
Observation-Disclosures
By BONNIE BURNHAM

There is something so thoroughly in
spring in knowing that you, YOU
yourself own, actually own a plot OF
this great green earth that God has
lent us while we're herel
There's something mysterious and
overwhelming, too, to know. REALLY

warm, pulsating breast of Mother
Earth, may hnd a receptive spark, to
burst forth full before you, to be nur-
tured and cared for by you for your

To be a producer-not merely a con-
sumner, is an estate which does not be-
long to your city man. and one Wnlcn
is not generally appreciated by your
son Of the soil, until once he finds
himself in the whirl and the grind OF
the everyday competition, often unre-
munerative, which awaits him In town.
We need good men in the towns and
the cities, certainly.
They are there, all right. and IN
numbers.
But what we need more, is the pres
ence of more energy and ability and
personality on the deserted farm.
It has been a serious question during
the past ten years just how to keer
the boys and girls at home in the farm
sections where they are really needed
and where their earning value is many
times greater imam IL becomes IN Town
Some of them, who have tried out
the proposition in the city, too, are
mute testimonials of where they should
have been and remained instead Of
adding an unequal competition to theil
struggles.
There is money to be made on the
farm.
Better than money, there is whole
someness of mind and body and heart
which comes pretty nearly spelling

When you see the average $40 a weel
clerk in town whose SNUG countenanct
