Ouite a New Phase to the Woman Cues- tion The World Open to Her. Kl'ltKLl AN AUVAXCKI) POSITION. But It In Taken by a Woman In Wonli Which Carry Convincing- Proof of Fact Other Note. Washington, June 20. Here is a new phase to the woman question. In a re cent essay Marion Ilarland expressed . her hope that the movement in behalf of the sex will soon be abandoned. There is now, she says, little need of these agitations or for endeavors looking to the advanecinenff of one. sex us apart from-the rest of mankind.' "With the world of knowled.se and opportunity thrown open to her, it argues little ' for her ambition and less for her ability to grasp cardinal principles that she elects to build fences about her reservation' Thus it is that Marion Harland thinks, talk about womnns emancipation is un necessary. Woiiian is already emanci pated. This is surely an advanced jiosition to take, yet it is a woman who takes it, and there is conviction in her words. Jt is an encouraging fact that in certain phases womnns' progress has come to the ultimate of success. In cer tain fields she is now completely free. fter slavery was abolished who talked of abolition?,. Woman is rapidly getting to the place where her freedom, her , right to work and t compete, will be considered as things to be taken for granted, without comment, without sur prise. Dr. l:luloek' Position. 'Spokane Review. To the question as to whether or not he was a candidate for i!he governorxhin Dr. N. G. Blalock of Walla Walla said : "I have never an nounced myself as one and consequently it is not necessary that I should say I am not. It is a long time, from now till the state convention and no one can tell what may happen before- that. I am not going to make the mistake. Blaine did and rcsiirn the executive commis- sionershii of the world's fair cominis- .sion liefore I have announced myself a candidate. ' Like most other men in the .-State, if the party choose me as stand .ard bearer, I should be pleased, but in the meantime I am doing nothing one way or the other, about the nomi nation." Hellgute Broke Loow. .Missoula Star. Saturday afternoon . and evening the region drained by the Ilellgate river, east of Missoula, was vis ited by the heaviest rainstorm in several years. The tops of the mountains were covered deeply with snow, and aB the rain, which amounted almost to a cloud burst, melted it, the mountain gulches stud ravines were soon filled with water . -and the Ilellgate river, which is usually a narrow, swift running stream, became .a raging torrent. The Northern Pacific crosses the river a dozen or more times within 50 miles and the bridges were unable to stand the terrible strain, and tine after another they were swept away until but a few of them' were left in their original position and these were badly -out of line. ' Bepairing the damage is .almost equal to rebuilding the road. Will Fire the Straw. 'Fossil Journal. The dry, hot weather, which had seriously damaged the wheat on Shuttler Flat two weeks ago, has de stroyed it almost entirely now, and farmers are getting ready to fire the straw and commence plowing for sum mer fallow. They are much discouraged and cruelly disappointed, as the crop looked better a month ago than ever be fore at the same season. In this end of the county, though badly scorched in plnces, a good rain would yet insure a fair crop. Unless we have rain within .a week, there will not be enough grain left in the country to make seed. Perhap Prejudiced. Helena Dispatch. Governor Toole lias issued a proclamation forbidding . the bringing of sheep into Montana from Oregon, Nevada, California, Washing tort, Idaho or Utah. The proclamation was made on a showing made by Veter inary Surgeon Holloway that sheep from the states named were infected with scab. From 4,000 taS,000 sheep from outside points are held by Hollo way at Butte. Montana sheep have not : been affected with scab or other disease, and it is the intention of the authorities to keep tip a good record. , The Chicago convention expects-o complete its labors by Thursday at the .farthest.

Dispatches from Dublin:ffive accounts of the Par- nillites aud Antis fight yesterday. The i Antis tried to hold a meeting in Kill- IVZZZ , i. . upon them, w recked the platform and j drove off the band. The anti-Farnellites got reinforcements and put them to ! flight. After the meeting had been called to order the Parnellites returned in double numbers and tried to shout 1 down the chairman. Efforts to drive j them away failed, and the parties fell to fighting. Clubs,' stones and pieces of I the broken platform were the weapons The chairman was knocked senseless. While four of his friends were trying to carry him away from the fight, they were set upon by a party of Parnellites and knocked down and beaten. The chairman wa9 trampled upon and seriously hurt. Two hundred military and police were summoned, but they were unable to stop the fighting. While j awaiting reinforcements they -were roughly handled by the mob, and com pelled to fall back, taking with them three constables who had been disabled with stones. When 200 more soldiers arrived the force of 400 charged the mob, and after a 15 minutes' fight cleared the place. Eight men were found lying un conscious on the ground, where they had been trampled upon by rioters. Three are so severely injured that they may die; the others had sustained fractures of the arms or legs, but will recover. The number of seriously in jured is reported to 1 twentv-five or thirtv. Profitable to Publishers. Astoria Examiner. Arresting editors for criminal libel, when the libel has a Klitical smell, is one of the greatest source of profit that a newspaper can enjoy. A suit draws a few- dollars out of the publisher's pocket, and may cause temporary inconvenience for a short time ; but the cost is nothing compared with receipts. There arc many ways to make a newspaper popular and profit able, but the best, way is to get up a fight with -i lot of corrupt politicians, who are affected with the swell from long continuance in power. It is a sure thing game for a newspaper of nerve and courage. If the Columbia Were Open. Spokane Spokesman. It is said on good authority that the wheat acreage within fifteen miles of Watcrviile prom ises a yield of overl ,000,000 bushels. It will be harvested within 20 miles of the Columbia and will naturally find ship ment out of the country over the Great Northern to the Sound. That wheat and all the other products of that country would be brought to Spokane if the Northern Pacific would " lav 75 more miles of track. Evening Telegram. And if the Co lumbia river were opened not only this but many other million bushels would come down the natural great highway of the Northwest to be shipped at Portland or Astoria. .

A complimentary notice of Col. Elliott F. Shepard appears in the columns of one of our esteemed Oregon exchanges, the editor having been graduated from Col. Shepard 's New York evening paper some years ago. This editor is endeared to Col. Shepard by the most sacred ties of grat itude, and no wonder; for it was Col. Shepard who taught him when he first went to New York that it was very scandalous form to eat ice-cream with a spoon. The Loan Bureau. Pittsburg Dispatch. Senatoi Peffer wants a national loan bureau established to lend money to Tom, Dick and Harry. This would save" some work on the natio nal emblem. Instead of forty-six stars we could use three balls. Immediately upon his explanation of his money-loaning bill various parts of the country are visited by cyclones. And thns the close connection between hirsute eloquence and meteorological phenomena is once more established. Oregon Newspapers. Telegram. The Three Sisters, pub lished at Barlow, Clackamas county, but claiming to hail equally from Barlow, Aurora and Canby, and the Sheridan Snn, are the latest acquisitions to the newspaper list of Oregon. A town is no town at all these days unless it has a newspaper, and frequently not much of a town if it has. The Gem of the Mountain. Idaho Recorder. Lemhi valley is at its lovliest. The trees are in full leaf, the fields and foot hills emerald green, while the mountains are capped with glistening snow, all combined to make a scene unsurpassed for beauty in the west. A VALID CHICAGO WILL John Crerar's Endowment of a Great ' Pnblic Library. CONTESTED - THROUGH A FLAW. The'Courts Sustain the Will and the Contestants are Downed. PUBLIC OPINION KK.TOMTKTH. A Decision Which May Trove of Value in Determining Similar Contest ' Klsewhere. Chicago, June 20. It would have been unfortunate, for many reasons, if the purpose of the late John Crerar to endow a great public library in Chicago had been set aside through technical flaws in the bequest. Thus far the courts have sustained the will. Judge Gary of the Appellate court has confirmed the famous ruling of JHidge Tuley, and the contestants of the Crerar will have no standing in court. It is unlikely that any further contest will be made, and the executors are free to set about the fulfillment of the trust. It is not alone because Chicago is the beneficiary of Mr. Crerar's bequest that public opin ion rejoices over the finding of the courts. The professional will-breaker has received a check, and these Illinois decisions may prove of value in deter mining similar contests elsewhere. Just as the breaking of the Tilden will in New York was demoralizing, the sustaining of the Crerar will in Illinois will inspire future benefactors of like character. There was a marked similarity in the co:itest$in these two cases, but the Tilden will was made invalid by a pecularity of New York laws that does not obtain in this state. The execution of the Crerar trust will give to this city another splen did library. It is matter for congratu lation that there will be no . diversion of the magnificent bequest from the 'object contemplated by the giver. The Primary Isane. Chicago, June 22. The republican national platform presents two leading issues. It pronounces her protection and declares in'favor of a law upon the time of the force bill. It is not possible, as campaigns go, that the contest ' to be determined next'November can be fought ou two principal issues. Either the pro. tection idea or the force-bill idea will become the primary issue. The demo cratic platform and nomination to be made today must determine which of these two issues shall be dominant. The democrats tbu9 have the choice of weapons. By- the nomination of Mr, Cleveland, tarift reiorm would be writ ten first, upon the democratic banner and then stamped upon every feature of the impending canvass. The force-bill idea would become a subordinate issue. On the other hand, the nomination of Hill or Gorman would be an acceptance of the force-bill issue. Whatever dis tinction Mr. Gorman has achieved out side of mere politics was gained through his antagonism of the force bill. If he represents anything as a publicist it is opposition to that method of controlling elections. It might, perhaps, be unfor tunate for the whole country to shift the issue of November from tariff reform, where the opening of the campaign finds it, to the old and baleful sectional con tention between the north and the south.. It would be harmful and possi bly disastrous to the south. It might prove of incalculable injury to the north. The two great parties would form in line upon the issues of 1,860 instead of the issues of 1S02. The resentments and bitterness of the war would be re vived The country would go backward instead of advancing. Must Stop Wrangling. Nisw Yoke, June 22. The executive committee of the Irish National league has unanimously adopted the following resolution ! "That we condemn the di vision now existing in Ireland. We de clare that we will not contribute one cent to either party until they unite; and we also condemn the action of either party in sending a delegate to America, thereby transferring their quarrels to this country." Fosall Note. The Gilman-French land and live stock company have built perhaps ten miles of barbed wire fencing this year, enclosing a large part of several town ships of land. Their properties, with a few exceptions, include all the finest ranches of southern Gilliam county. A. W. Knowles, of Wasco county, veterinary surgeon, passed through this place week before last. His old-time good humor and republican principles .have, not deserted him, P. C. Martin, a former resident of Wasco county, and Chris Davis, started to .the Willamette valley last week, with a bunch of horses. ''Axon.

Confirming the re port that 25,000 to 30,000 German Luth erans iu this state, who have heretofore acted with the republicans intend to vote the democratic ticket this year, Mr. A. S. Wright, of Woodstock says : "The German Lutheran voters are going over in a body to the dcrnocrats and un less something is done to stop the land slide the entire vote would be lost to the republicans. I am not a member of the state central committee," said Mr. Wright, "but if I get a chance I shall certainly insist that something be done at once. I have seen the drift of affairs for a loni; time, and although I have tried to persuade our friends to remain with the ftarty thev have refused to do so. I have found that personal appeals will do no good. " We must use money and establish newspapers in various ports of the state and show that we are not' opposed to them. They seem to be stirred up over the school question, and their ministers and prominent laymen are going from place to place making personal appeals for votes for the dem ocratic ticket. I have talked with Ger mans who vote the republican ticket, but' thev say thev are against us this time. I believe the German Lutheran vote in the state is twenty-five or thirty thousand. The situation is a grave one and prompt measures should be taken I think the Australian ballot M ill help ns, because the German Lutheran min isters under that system connot distrib ute the ballots in their churches and see to it that thev are cast. But the German Lutherans are getting away from their partv and there is no use disguising that fact. There will be an immense number of young Germans who will cast their first votes this- year and thev seem to be as rebellious as their parents." Telegraphic Flashes. All the royalty and high military of Potsdam were at the station yesterday to meet King Humbert and Queen Mar garet, who came on a special from Ber lin, and were received on the platform by Emperor William and empress. The emperor stepped forward when the train stopped, holding a huge boquet of red roseB. As Queen Margaret alighted he presented the boquet and kissed her hand. He then tnrned to the king and they embraced three times. While the empress was kissing Queen Margaret, the young princesses were brought for ward and were kissed and embraced by both king and queen. The emperor led Queen Margaret to a carriage drawn by four horses. - The empress and the king followed and took another carriage, and the party drove off to the new palace. The Miranda, with the Peary relief expedition, will sail from New York Monday for the ice bound regions of the north.

An accident on the Grand Trunk, out of Portland, Me., yesterday, on account of a bad washout, resulted in several immediate deaths and numerous severe and perhaps fatal injuries to passengers. The work of .transhipping passengers was retarded by the fact that the noon train took 300 pilgrims for the shrine of St. Anne de Beauport from Portland, besides pilgrims from other points. BOSTON ACROSTICS. v A Higti Old Sensation Caused by' a faEis- Student." PUBLIC LIBRARY TABLET REMOVED: An Ornamental Facade Used For Ad vertising Purposes. TBI GLOBE HAS -A Sl'OGKSTIOX. An Kaoteric Message . .Speaking With The Savory Aroma' of out on Life. Bostox, June 22. The acrostic which a waggish firm of architects placed npon the new public library building of this city has now beeu removed after much indignant discussion. Upon the facade of that structure the names of several great men had beeu arranged in such a man ner that the perpendicular rows of in nitial letters spelled the firm's title. The" tablet has been torn down and another will soon be put in its place. To do" away with all offensive suggestions of ad vertising and at the same time meet the poetic requirements, the following ar rangement of illustrious names, has been suggested by the Globe: Bion. Beethoven. . Arhitides. Emerson. Keppler. - Angelo. Euripides. Nelson. Dante. Schopenhauer. The names are inspiring, and the es oteric message they bear exhales the savory aroma peculiar to Boston life. Glancing at the one the mind of the passer-by would be stimulated, and tak ing in the deep significance of the other the cravings of his physical being would be met and profoundly satisfied. This is by all means the right inscription for the, pride of Boston, her magnificent library building. THE APPROPRIATIONS. Concerning Complaints ' About What Washington "Gets." The Seattle papers are still complain ing about the large appropriations awarded, as they claim, to Oregon, in comparison with what Washington "gets." They feel sore at the probable defeat of the Lake Washington canal ap propriation, ana still insist ttiat. all ap propriations for the Columbia river are for Oregon. The Seattle Telegraph pub lishes rwhat it calls "a comparison of what tho two states are receiving from the present congress,' as follows : OREGON. Cascade ..$ 4S.VW0 Kima, for continuation llO,.)

Remember ing this fact says tlie lelegram, .the totals would stand : Oregon 3,407,!55 Wasbingtou 'ibi,VZ Of course, the sound cities are not anxious to see the Columbia river opened, so as to give the producers of the Inland Empire, a natural and easy outlet for their products. They prefer that all the wheat and other surplus products of eastern Washington should be tugged over the Cascade mountains to the sound, but that is no legitimate excuse for the constant misrepresentation that the ap propriations for the Columbia river are solely for Oregon. They are for the mutual benefit of eastern Oregon and eastern Washington equally, or rather more for the benefit of eastern Washing ton, because it has a much larger quan tity of surplus products tributary to the Columbia than eastern Oregon has. The Lake Washington canal is essentially a local improvement; the opening of the Columbia river is for the vast benefit of the whole Inland Empire. - Salvation Army Hallelujah. J"kw Yobk, June' 22.

Decosta, of the church of St. John the Divine, and Rev. . Henry Wilson, formerly Dr. Rainsford's assistant at St. Georges church, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Briggs, have enrolled themselves in the auxiliary league of the Salvation Army, and by this action have signified their approval of the objects of that organiza tion. The cholera is extending in the man ufacturing suburbs of Paris. There were eight deaths yesterday, at Aubervillers. Nkw Yobk, June 23. The conference yesterday between Gladstone and the McCarthy lenders, upon the ypresent status of affairs in Ireland, aluioft solely concerned proposals of Gladstone to ex tend guarantees to the minorities l.nder the proposed new home-rule bill? At the opening of tho conference Gladstone asked what the prospects were for a re union of the Irish parliamentary party. He was told the prospects were remote. He expressed no great icncern as to the result should that end be not attained. He is hopeful of such a solid majority at the approaching general elections th he believed the return of a few so-called independents will not effect tho issues. The statement that Timothy Healy waa present is erroneous. Justin McCarthy subsequently convened a private meet ing of his colleagues to discuss Glad Stone's proposition. It is likely the proposals will be approved all round. With regard to the re-nnion commission going there from the United States, Dillon says he fears it will be too late for work to be effective. They will ar rive on the evo of polling, and after final preparations for contest ore completed. The anti-Parncl(tes, he declares, will be ready, however, up to the last moment to attempt to effect a conciliation, or favorably consider such attempts should they be made bv the Parnelites. Xkwpokt Nkws, June 28. The event of the launching of the steamship El Norte, in the yard of the Newport News shipbuilding and dry dock company 1b noteworthy for several reasons. Most persons will be surprised to learn that this vessel, built in" Virginia, is not only the largest ship built by this company but the largest steamship ever built in the United States, exceeding 'in length by several feet the new cruises New York. Moreover, El Norte is not only a magnificent specimen of naval architect ure, but sho is the ninth of her class in a fleet owned and run by the Southern Pacific steamship company. Her con sorts are the Shelmet, Excelsior, ' Eure ka, El Paso, EI Monte, El Mar, El Sol and El Sud, built in the order named. A tenth, El Rio, will be launched in November. The vessels ply between New York and Newport News and New Orleans in connection with C. P. Hunt ington's railroad "system." It is truly a great country in which enterprises like this Southern Pacific Steamship line grow to vast dimensions without at tracting much pnblic notice. Ten years ago there was not a single house on the site of the ship-yard at Newport News where now stands a thriving town often thousand souls that has grown np around a. shipbuilding plant that em ploys 1,500 men. It is Huntington's Southern Pacific system that has done it all. ' The- ships average 9,000' bales of cotton per trip. The El Norte is, techni cally, an iron freight boat of 4.500 tons ; length' over all 400 feet, with facilities and capacity for loading 14,000 bales of cotton in a day. By means of its "fleet of fast steamships the Southern Pacific line is able to compote with the all-rail trans-continental routes. ' Thus a few weeks age it landed forty carloads of carpet la San Francisco, ten days from New York, for Australian transporta tion. J Telegraphic Flashes.
