Senator Sherman has introduced
a bill to incorporate the American
National Association of The Red
Cross, with Clara Barton, George
Kennan, J. B. Hubbard, M. D. and
others as its incorporators. After
the passage of the bill, it will be

Senator Evarts has introduced a
bill for the benefit of Dr. Mary
Walker. It calls for $10,000. It
is considered as a reimbursement
to her for her sei vices and suffer
ings as assistant physician during
the war. This bill for her relief has
been reported favorably by the
house committee on military affairs
four times before.
The tariff question will not be
settled for a month yet. Senator
Morrill, of Vermont, is the cham
pion prominent republican in the
senate on this subject, but all his
arguments seem to be delivered
more for the purpose of displaying
his talents than convincing any one
of the sincerity of his remarks.
The sundry civil bill is also oc
cupying the atten tiou of the senate.
Mr. Cummings has just finished a
severe attack o'n the geological sur
vey. It was in respect to the ir
rigation of the great American
desert. He ridiculed the work of
the bureau in the preparation of
topographical maps. These maps
reminded him of a little incident :
A Jerseyman mercharit failed aud

he was approached by a peddler :

The New Sort-west.
Iowa State Register.
A seven week's tour in the great
Northwest has convinced the writer
that there should be a redivision,
or reclassification of the states of
the nation. Iowa has been known
as a northwestern state for over 40
years, and yet she is more nearly
a northeastern than a northwestern
state. Washington, Oregon, Idaho,
Montana and Wyoming should be
classed as the northwestern states,
and, Iowa and the other states
hitherto classed as northwestern
states should be called middle
states. Iowa is 2500 miles or more
away from the northwestern corner
bf the United States, as the rail
roads run, and it is high time that
the geographies and political di
visions of the nation should recog'
nize that there is a new and actual
northwest that is making rapid
strides towards being one of the
most important sections of the
union. The new Northwest is a
young giant and it will have greater
influence in the' commerce of the
world and the legislation of the na
tion than all New England within
the next twenty-five years.

After the Battle.
The battle was over and the sun
had gone down. The dense white
smoke of the great black cannons
had been disappearing by the even
ing breeze that crept faint and sweet
from the dark woods near by, lift
ing with touch as light as 'a living
hand's the damp hair on icy fore
heads, and fluttering in sad. mock
ery the torn and bloody flag yet
grasped by a band forever still.
The rabbit that, had be.in driyen.
away by the fearful noise of battle j
stole timidly, with many a start!
and shiver, back to its young, hid
in the long grass beneath a hedge'
of wild roses, and clear and shrill !
the cricket piped its evening song,'
as if in scorn of the strife and ; tu
mult of an hour , ago. Defeat had
been suffered and victory gained,
and triumphant host had followed
hot and fast in the path of 'the re
treating foe, and for the timebeing
the battlefield, with its wounded
and dead, lay still and quiet, save
for a long moaning here and there,
and the death-rattle now and again
that told of some soldier's great
promotion. :
Breath a spreading oak that j
grutv ciose 10 wiiere a gnm-mouinea
cannon breathed its' silent threat,

Era7
with the three stars that marked
the collar dimmed and darkened
with the slowly-oozing crimson
stain, and the other of blue, like
the wearer's ryes, and torn with a
horrid rent in the breast.
The gray-haired man in the col
onel's uniform roused at last from
the swoon in which he lay and
glanced about him in restless pain,
only to meet the bluJ eyes near
him. Ju st a smooth, boyish face,
with the light of laughter hardly
gone from it, but now white
and drawn with a sick pain,, and
the mouth that had not long lost
its childish curve, stem with a
painful effort at self command, and
clear and distinct to the old man
came a softening vision of a curly
head asleep on a snowy pillow and
of blue eyes far away like those
that looked into his now from a
wounded foeman's face. But the
old question of right and
wrong
that had seemed so great when the
black guns that frowned upon the
evening scene had been wheeled
into place and the early sunlight
had Hashed on bayonet and sword,
dwindled away before the veiled
face of the mighty angel death that
hovered near and the God-born
touch of nature that makes the!
whole world kin spoke in the gray.

"To death, I'm afraid, sir."
"Ah, perhaps not. Let's see." :
And slowly and painfully he
crawled the few feet that lay be
tween them, but one glance at the
jagged, bleeding wound under the
blue coat showed him that the lad
was right, and, exhausted by
effort, he sank down by the other's
side. '
When he came to, a hand, feeble
in touch and slow but gentle as a
girFs, was bathing bis brow with
water from an old canteen.
"I was afraid you were gone, sir,"
said the boy, faintly smiling.
"Not yet, but we're going home
together, lad, and we're nearly
there."
There was silence between the
two for awhile as the kindly twi

presently a sob broke from the boy,
whose dawning manhood caught it
back in shame. - !

And Grctly he's my dog that I

down to the orchard gate looking;"

there, with his honest brown eyes
trying to make out where Pre gone,
and coming slowly "back to lay his

just as they used to do when I was

'And I," said the confederate,,
with his eyes dim and a quiver in
his bearded lips, "leave desolate a
little brown house on a grim old
mountain's side not many miles
away, where a patient little woman
waits for me beside a crib, with
two little girls close to her kneo
that talk about 'father's coming hy

around the table, with the bright
lamp on it that I used to watch
shining down the road like a lov
ing message as I plodded up the
mountain side."
And so upon the golden stars the
fbemen gazed and talked of home
in tender reminiscence, till, as those
stars paled before the moon, climb
ing higher and higher in the clear
I dome above them, there fell a si
lence that was the benediction of a
pitying God upon his wondering,
wounded children. And when the
morning came, the busy surgeons
and those who searched the flefd
for missing friends came upon Ja
strange, pathetic sight. The two

A Romantic Story. -
Kast Orcgoniau.
A prepossessing young woman
arrived on last Saturday morning's
train. She was unable to speak a
word of English and was evidently
greatly bewildered. Officer John
son noticed her embarrassment
and approached her. She showed
him a letter containing Ben 'Ha
gan's name, and the officer at once
conducted her to that gentleman's
residence and awakened the house
hold. It appears that the fair im
migrant is from Tornig,in FinlaWd,
Russia, and Ben, who speaks the
Finnish language fluently, learned
from her the story of her journey,
which is a somewhat romantic one.

and although they had never seen
each other, the tender missives
wafted across tins ecas were the
means of developing a mutual re
gard and attachment. She finally
started on her long journey across
the globe to join him, being pro
vided with funds by Mr. Harala to
bear the expenses of the trip.' ;
The young woman, traveling
alone, hearing naught but an un
known tongue, and unable to nsk
assistance, became an easy victim
of misfoituncs. She was taken
sick on the steamer and was robbed
of every cent she possessed. Had
it not been for the charily of kind
hearted fellow travelers who pro
vided her with food, her lot would
have been a bitter one. - Her ticket
was left by the thieves, however,
and she managed to reach Dulnth,
Minn., where a number of country
men took up a collection and sent
her on her way.
James Blakely, of Brownsville,
-who is now at The Dalles, visiting
his son, is one of the earliest, pio
neers of Oregon, and passed throu-h
j identified with the history ; of be
state from the date of its first set
tlement. A company has been formed at
Coquell to build a flat-bottomed
steamer, with a draft of about eight
feet and with a carrying capacity
of 800 tons. The steamer will cost
about 140,000. This is the result
of the enterprising Coquell City
j lie raid of that place.
