We have received several com munications in reference to the recent school election from both sides, and the Journal refuses to ive either space in these columns. And our reason is very dmple: First, because the elec tion is over, ami there can be nothing pained in a further dis cussion or the matter; and sec ond, because every narent who has children of school age knows that there should be no disturbing element in the work for tbe best interests of the schools. Let all throw aside bickering-, and join hands in aiding the school board in accomplishing the great work undertaken. A disturbing element is always a thorn in tbe side of public welfare. This paper feels a deep interest in the prosperity of Murray, and we desire to see the new school house erected and ready for use as earlv as possible. Now, throw aside bitter amnios ties, if there are any, and show, by your united efforts, that you intend that Murray shall soon boast of one of the best high schools in the county, or in the state, for that matter. Birthday Surprise. Little Miss Mary Creamer was very pleasantly surprised last Saturday afternoon when, upon returning home from visitng her niece, Miss Eleanor Creamer, she found twenty-three little friends and schoolmates at her home to assist her in properly celebrating her ninth birthday anniversary. The afternoon was spent in games as only children know how to indulge, and a very jolly time was had by those present. Deli cious ice cream and cake was served to the puests, which added very much to the occasion. We wish Mary many happy returns of the day. Basket Dinner at Lewiston.

"Isn't there a romance iu your life, grandma V" said a little Kiii to whom her grandaiotlier had heen telling sto ries. "Oh, yes. There are romances in the lives of all of us." "Well, grandma, tell me yours." "Let me see. 1 was but eighteen when my father your great-grandfa ther, you know hired a farm hand who eamo along just at the beginning of the harvest season. I will call him Klislia. We girls used to help get in the grain in those d:iys, and sometimes I used to go out and help on purpose to he with Klisha. He was two years older than 1, and I considered him very handsome. I was at that age when a girl's heart goes out naturally, and mine went out to L'lisha. "One evening about sunset when we were alone together among the wheat we sat down on a pile of sheafs to talk. Illisha put his arm around me and kissed me. Then he toldne loved me, and I told him I loved him "1 was too young at any rate, too unsophisticated to know the next thing to be done, which was for Elisha to go to my father and ask for me. lie didn't do this, hut when the first natu ral outpouring of love was over I aske.l him if I should say anything about our affair to father or mother, lie told me to say nothing at present. "I waited, no one but Klisha and I knowing what was between us. till the harvest was all in and my lover was paid off. That day he took me off where we would be alone and said to me: " Tour father wouldn't think of giv let? ou to me. I tiaven't a cent in the world. We must wait. 111 try durin the next few years to get a start; then I will come back and ask for you.' "My heart stood still. How could I wait several joars for him to come back to me? Each year would seem a century. In three years I would be twenty-one, and that seemed to me then to mark a girl as an old maid. Uut there was nothing to bo done, so I said goodby to Klisha. and he went away. "There was a farmer near us who stood very high in the community. He was but twenty-eight years old. and yet he had been in the legislature of the state. lie seemed to me to be a hundred years old. He used to come to our place and talk with father about thing.? that I didn't understand tariff and free trade, raising money to build railroads to take our grain to market. ami all that "When we were all in the livin room in the evening, and father and Mr. Baxter, I'll call him. were talking about these things and the slavery question iu the south and the troubles In Kansas, 1 used to sit at my needle work and wonder what they meant. for I didn't understand a word of it all. "Then one day father surprised me by telling me that Mr. Baxter had pro posed for me. and father hoped I would accept him since the match would such a good one for me. " 'Isn't that a funny way to propose for a girl?' I asked. I suposed the lover proposed to tho girl instead of her father. ' 'The most honorable way is to ask permission of her father to speak to her.' "All this was too formal, too unnat ural for me. I told father that I would not have Mr. Baxter; he was alto gether too old for me. And when father said he was just the right age I re plied that he semed too old anyway. "Father was obliged to tell Mr. Bax ter that I wouldn't hare him, and Mr. Baxter only said that ho was very sor ry, but ho wouldn't think of permitting the least influence to be Lrought to bear on me to induce me to accept him. I didn't tell any one that my heart had been given to a farm hand. Indeed, I didn't dare tell. I couldn't have braved father's anger and contempt. I ground my teeth together and resolved to wait for Elisha. I waited two years, and he didn't come. I waited two years more, Meanwhile Mr. Baxter had been away much of the time. He had been elect ed.to congress. Then I heard father say that he was sure of the nomination for governor. "This didn't interest me. I didn't care if he was president. What I wanted was that which would satisfy the cravings of my heart 1 wanted Elisha. "It was Ave years after Elisha had gone away and three after Mr. Baxter had proposed for me that I saw one morning when I was standing on the porch a man coming down the road. His clothes were city cut. though not fashionable. He stopped at the gate ond asked me how far it was to Boon ton. I told him. and he said. 'You don't seem to remember me. 'No; I don t, I replied 'Sorry; I thought ycu wculd.' A. suspicion came to me when he said this that he was Elisha. I dreaded lest ho was, for somehow I didn't like his looks. I can't tell you what there was about him I didn't fancy; it was every thing. The fact is that I had been changing during these j-ears he had heen away from me and now saw him for what he was a very commonplace man. Well, do j'ou know, I turned and went into the house. The man went on. My dream was enuea. in a lew weeks I was engaged to Mr. Baxter." "But, grandma, you haven't had two husbands, have you?" No. I only called him Mr. Baxter. He is your grandfather."
