CROOK COUNTY RAILROADS.
Mr. S. J. Newsome, in an article con
tributed by him to the Prineville Newa
In advocating a railroad in Crook county,
comments on an editorial on that sub
ject that appeared in this paper eome
time ago. Mr Newsome says :
Men generally see all the good or
barm that is in a thing according to the
wav it strikes the interests ol them
selves or the town in which they live,
and I am not surprised that our friend.
the editor of The Dalles Chronicle,
would oppoee the idea of Crook county
having a railroad. We have been ducks
for them for twenty-five years, paying
tribute on two toll roads, both in Wasco
county, being compelled to go that way
- and no otber to buy our supplies and
also to sell our beef and wool, but when
they can see a probability of our eman
cipation they would try and mane us oe
lieve we were etill in short clothes, and
might become wild and unmanageable
if we Bhould fail to travel 120 miles of
the worst road in the state, pay our two
tolls, leave all our small change with
tnem, etc.
We would -call the gentleman's atten
tion to the fact that we are not opposing
the idea of Crook county having a rail
road." Crook county can have just as
many railroads as she. wants or can get,
without any opposition either upon the
part of Wasco county, The Dalles, or the
newspapers of this city. We wish to
emphasize the fact that the whole busi
ness is none of our pie, and if Crook
county wants a railroad we sincerely
hope she may get it. We simply in
dorsed Mr. Williamson's statement, and
called attention to a similar case in
Nevada.
We have never been in Crook county,
consequently knew nothing of its prod
ucts, its soil, or its needs. We based
' our opinion upon the statements in the
.News, from which we judged the county
was principally given to stock-raising.
.If it contains valuable timber and other
i resources that require the shipment of
, large tonnage, of course a railroad is
necessary to its moving. If it is a slock
-country only, we are still firmly of the
-opinion a railroad would injure it.
In conclusion we will say that we do
not own the toll roads alluded to and
are not interested in the profits thereof,
and that Wasco county's treasury is not
filled to overflowing from the proceeds
of those roads either. They are both
private' enterprises, and Mr. Newsome
has our consent to pay the tolls or lick
tho toll collector if he feels that way ;
but that would not alter the facts con
cerning railroads in Crook county.
that heroic measures would have to be
adopted if the man was to be given a
chance for hia life. So they cut him
open for a foot or two, removed five feet
of the intestines and brought the ends
of what was left together, fastening
them with a Murphy button whatever
that is and the patient seems to be
doing as well as if his running gears had
not been touched. Now, if that was
President Garfield, or someone else
whose life was worth saving, the big-wig
physicians would cut and probe, and
eenerallv assist in getting the body
ready for the funeral.
A FLAT FAILURE.
Mr. Corbett'a dinner is liable to be
come historical as a failure. That Mr,
Corbett had a right to give a dinner to
the membera of the legislature, nobody
will deny ; and that Mr. Corbett's mo
tives were not evil, most will admit.
Mr. Corbett is an honorable gentleman,
with more brains than judgment, and
more hospitality than taste. That his
dinner was attended by only one-third
of the members of the legislature was
due, not to any dislike of Mr. Corbett,
not to any suspicion of bis having any
sinister designs upon the membera of
that body, but because, under the cir
cumstances, his invited guesta could
not put their feet under his mahogany,
or their vests outside of his wine, with
out making themselves liable to criti
cism, however undeserved. The public
could see no reason for Mr. Corbett's
dinner party, hence ascribed his hospi
tality to some motive, which, because
hidden, was believed to be evil.
The people of these days contrive to
do some thinking for themselves. They
have on many occasion noted the rela
tionship between wine suppers and leg
islation, and have learned that bills
passed by the influence of champagne
were generally in the interests of the par
ties who paid for the wine, instead of
the parties who elected the legislators.
Those who remained away from Mr.
Corbett's wine avoided the appearance
of evil, at least, and not only that, but
turning their attention to legislative
work, performed the duties for which
they were elected. Whatever Mr. Cor
bett's object was, the presence of but
twenty-six out of ninety invited guests
stamps it as a flat failure; or, to use the
society term so numerous since Ward
McAllister gave it the sanction of his
approval, a defunct "function."
Eecently a farmer in Indiana con
cluded to sell bis farm and move to
town. The buyer was found and the
price agreed upon, and the deed prop
erly drawn up, when an unexpected ob
stacle presented itself. The wife posi
tively refused to sign the deed. When
the lawyer who bad the matter in charge
began to argue the case with her, she
said she thought part of the money for
the farm should be given to her for her
own. When asken now mucn sne
thought she ought to have, she said, '.'I
think I ought to have at least $2." The
money was given her and she signed the
deed with the remark that that was the
first money she ever had in her life to
do as she pleased with. The balance,
$35,998, was paid to the husbadd and
pocketed by him. This would be funny
if it were not ao pathetic, for the inci
dent ia supported by' evidence that
shows it to be an actual occurrence.
We do not feel like adding a moral of
any kind, for the story carries its own
moral' Baker City Democrat.
There seems but little hope of electing
Dolph to succeed himself in the United
States senate. Important as it ia that
he should succeed himself it is. yet
more important that Oregon have two
senators. The republican party is larger
than any man, its interests of more im
portance than the election or defeat of
any one man for any omse. When it
becomes evident that Dolph cannot e
elected, (and we think that time has
arrived) an earnest effort should be made
to find some man on whom all parties
can agree. The interest of the national
party require that Oregon should have
her two senators, and the interest of the
party in thia state demand that some
mutual ground can be found upon which
all factions of the party may meet.. We
still believe aa we have always believed,
that Dolph should be returned to the
senate, but if this cannot be done, some
one else should be selected.
La Gaacogne ia Safe. j
Fibe Island, Feb. 11. 4:15 p. m.
There are three steamers off Forge life
saving station. " One is a French steamer
moving slowly. Will not reach Fire
Island for two hours.
The observer here, while he cannot
say definitely, thinks the French steam
er reported on the iorge lifesaving
station is La Gascogne.
The French steamer has two masts and
two red etacks with black tops. This
answers the description of the La Gas
cogne. She is now off Smith's Point
and moving very slowly. She has sig
nals out. -but they cannot be read.,
Two steamers are now south of Fire
Island. One looks like an Anchor liner,
and the other is a tank. -
5:30 p. m. The steamer La Gaecogne
is south of Fire Island.

An
Useless
OFFER TO SETTLE.
DON'T CALL NAMES.
The Moro Observer this week jumped
on to Mr. Coon, member of the legisla
ture from this and Sherman county, an-1
called him all sorts of names. This may
. relieve the mind of the editor, but is
certainly not a course calculated to con
ciliate Mr. Coon or change his opinions,
and besides it ia hardly proper to im
pugn a man's motives because he has
opinions that do not coincide with yours.
If it is proper to call a man a dirty scrub
because he believes in the free coinage of
silver, it is just as appropriate for the
other fellow to call his assailant a liar
and a thief.
A case of deep interest to all fraternal
beneficial orders baa recently been de
cided in Philadelphia. It appears that
Joseph E. Arthars joined the order Feb'
ruary 28, 1879, as a charter member of
Reliance Lodge. A. O. IT. W., and des
ignated his mother, Mary Arthars, as
his beneficiary. On the 3d of October,
1886, Arthars married, but made no
change in the certificate, In September,
1887, his mother died, and on April 16,
1889, Arthars also died, leaving hia cer
tificate as originally issued. Immedi
ately after his death an administrator
was raised upon his mother's estate by
hia two married sisters who claimed the
$2,000 due by. the A. O. U. W., as heirs
of Mary Arthars. The widow filed a
claim in her own behalf, aa the only
legal heir to the $2,000. Judge Arnold
in his decision, holds the mother's in
terest in the beneficiary ceased at her
death, and directed judgment for the
widow for the full amount. . We believe
these points have been settled before,
but it is well to call attention to these
decisions occasionally so that the mem
bers will see the necessity of changing
the name of the beneficiary when occa
aion requires it. Frater.
The defeat of the Reilly funding bill,
which proposed to give the Union and
Central Pacific Railroad Companies for
ever and some time after in which to
settle with the government, or rather to
give them 50 years in which they might
make np their minds whether they
would pay or not, has Bet the directors
of those roads thinking to some purpose,
They owe the government in round num
bers" $64,000,000 principal and $75,000,000
interest. The defeat of the Reilly bill
has caused a sudden discovery among
the bosses, who a few days ago were de
claring their bankruptcy their inability
to pay more than one per cent a year of
the principal that they can dig up and
pay over to the government $64,000,000
cash, if it will release its claim on the
road.
There is reason in this sudden offer to
pay. Should the government conclude
to foreclose and then operate the road,
it would hurt all the others, and espec
ially injure the Southern Pacific, which
was built with the stealings from the
Central Pacific, and which belongs to
Crocker, Huntington et al. If the gov
ernment has the honesty and backbone
to stand up to these people and say
"Either pay your entire debt, or we
will take charge of the road and operate
it," the Pacific railroad question will be
settled. The companies will pay before
they will allow the government to own
and operate a road in the interests of the
people.
Besides this, under the laws of Cali
fornia, where the Central Pacific was in
corporated, the government can collect
its debt from Huntington, Crocker, Stan
ford and that gang in 1911, at which
time the corporation terminates.
CORPORATION GRATITUDE.
The doctors who took charge of the
Italian who shot a fellow countryman at
Portland last week, and then fired two
shots into his own stomach, have done
some very neat work on him. An ex
amination disclosed that the intestines
were perforated in several places, and
The Southern Pacific Railroad Com
pany, during trie strike at sacramento,
was protected by the United States
troops. As the troops were scattered
along the line, there were some who in
the demands upon their time, had no
time to cook their rations. They were
invited by Superintendent Willis to eat
at the company's restaurants. When
the strike waa settled, the' company pre
sented a bill to the government amount
ing to some $3,000 for the meals eaten
as aforesaid. The government haying
supplied the men rations, refused to pay
the bill, and now the railroad company
is taking steps to collect it from the sol
diers, and Lieut. Gorin has been de
tailed to investigate the matter, and if
it is found that the men ate the meals,
he is ordered to keep it out of their com
pany funds.
The boys in blue will no doubt take a
deep interest in protecting more railroad
property should another strike occur.
Now that it has been demonstrated
that Senator Dolph cannot be re-elected,
it .ought not to be difficult for the repub
licans to unite upon some man. of sound
views on finance, some capable man who
is not an extremist like Mr. Dolph, nor
a man of wild theories like Pennoyer.
There are plenty of broadminded repub
licans in this state who would serve the
state with ability and to the satisfaction
of all, and it begins to appear that such
a man must be selected if the deadlock
is to be broken. Albany Herald.
Charges of Violations of Civil Service
Laws Investigated.
.Washington, Feb. 1L Tho civil
service commission has completed an in
vestigation of the San Francisco custom
house. The report has "not been made
public, but it is understood to sustain
the charges of partisan removals and
other violations of the civil service law.
Complaints of this character were filed
at the bureau, Collector Wise denied
them. Several other offices in that
neighborhood have also been investi
gated by the committee.
Jadgements Against the Stockholders.
Chicago, Feb. 11. Judgements by de
fault, aggregating $226,744, were entered
today against the stockholders of the de
funct Columbia National bank, which
has-failed to pay the 75 per cent assess
ment levied to entitle the receiver of the
bank to pay out the money due the de
positors. .
Mo Hope of Finding the Fair Will.
San Francisco, Feb. 11. The execu
tors of Millionaire Fair's will have given
up hope of finding the stolen instrument
and have asked the court to admit it to
probate through a copy. If the contest
of the will is begun, the first battle will
be over the probate of this copy.'
President Cleveland has notified con
gress of the completion of arrangements
for another bond issue, amounting to
$62,400,000. It is a good many years
since Tacitus made the asseition that
"A treasury emptied by extravagance
could only be refilled by crime," and
that remark is aa true now as it was
when made. The saddling of an interest
bearing debt, payable in gold, upon this
country in time of profound peace is
scarcely short of a crime.
It was certainly a pecular combination
when X. N. Steeves, who is convicted of
manslaughter, appeared in conrt at
Portland one day this week to look after
the interests of a client- - Is there any
other country on earth where a convicted
criminal could appear in court as an
attorney and that too in the court
before which he was convicted and
which is liable to be called upon to send
him to the penitentiary at any moment.
The railroad commissioners will prob
ably hang on to their job, and if so a lot
of legislators ought to be hung along side
of them, making one job of the whole
business. The spectacle is one to cause
nothing but contempt for politics and
politicians of all parties and degrees.
Every man in the legislature except the
hold-oyer senators, was elected on a
platform pledging him to abolish the
railroad commission. Will it be done?
In Illinois the legislature is wrestling
with a bill to prevent the ladiea of the
audience wearing high hats, and the
ladies of the stage wearing tights. One
law is the corollary of the other, for of
what use could the latter law be without
the former.

When the first primitive railway was
built in this country, says the Railway
Age, somebody thoug-ht it would be
cheaper and handier to attach steps so
that passengers could get on or off
whenever the train might accommodat
ingly stop, without the trouble of
drawing up to a platform, and the fash
ion once started has been followed un
til now there are in the United States
not far from-thirty-five thousand cars,
passenger, baggage, mail and express,
which are dragging around four
times as many one hundred and forty
thousand sets of steps that are costly
to build and maintain, are a constant
source of danger, discomfort and delay.
and serve no purpose that could not
much better be accomplished by hav
ing station platforms at a level with
the platforms of the cars. The elevated
railways in New York first demon
strated the needlessness of steps for
cars on the American plan of having
end doors, as had from the first been
demonstrated on all European railways
where the doors open at the side. The
Illinois Central Railway company had
the enterprise to extend the principle
ol no steps to surface roads by build
ing special cars and high station
platforms for its world's fair train
service, with the result of han
J1! ,
uung great numbers of passengers
wiin extraordinary celerity and safety,
and the same progressive management
is now preparing to abolish the use of
car steps in its extensive suburban train
service by elevating its station plat
forms. It has had the principle in
highly successful operation for nearly
a year on its express suburban service, in
which are used ordinary day coaches,
the steps having been removed and the
platforms widened out, and if it were
building new cars for that service it
would build them without steps. - For
remote stations on its local service
where it is not yet ready to provide
new station platforms it adopts the
simple device of having trap doors over
the steps, which can be thrown back
where the steps are to be used an ex
pedient that would facilitate the grad
ual adoption of the high station plat
form principle' on all roads, allowing
them to apply it at first only at the
principal stations.
More than one thousand years ago
. Herodotus observed a remarkable cus
tom in Egypt, says Prof. Drummond.
At a certain season of the year, says
the Washington Post, the Egyptians
went into the desert, cut off branches
from the wild palm, and, bringing them
back , to their gardens, waved them
over the flowers of the date palm. Why
they performed this ceremony they did
not know, but they knew that if they
neglected it the date crop ' would be
poor or wholly lost.
Herodotus offers the quaint explana-
nation that along with these branches
there came from the desert certain flies
possessed of a "vivific virtue," which
somehow lent an exuberant fertility to
the dates. But the true rationale to
the incantation is now explained.
Palm trees, like human beings, are
male and female. The garden plants,
the date bearers, were females, the
desert plants were males, and the wav
ing of the branches over the females
meant the transference of the fertiliz
ing pollen from one to the other.
