FRIDAY HOUSING, APML 7, 1S82.
AN ESTHETIC DllIDE.
I shall wed a fair c-thctic,
ouite regiirilessof expense,
All I ask is that she's utter,
And in all thing" quite intense-.
Limp, of course, and la- she must be,
Clad in minor tones of green,
Oonsuniatelv soulful, earnest,
Must she be, my precious queen.
We shall feast on lillies daily,
QuaHiing draughts of beauty fair.
With a dish of ferns on Sunday,
Or a eacock's feather rare;
Thus shall flow our lives forever.
Like two gently gurgling rills.
Breathing poeOT and too-too.
And her dad shall foot the bills.
Hoid acl Losing the trip.
There arc some who have inher
ited so much toughness of fiber that
they are sure to hohl on until suc
cess is assured. Nothing can dis
courage them or briiin dismay.
They have a faith in ultimate success
which amounts to assurance. It they
make a hundred failures they strike
An their feet like a cat thrown out
of a window. The Mexicans said
that General Taylor' didn't know
when he was whipped. Of course
not. He had toughness of fiber.
He was not in the field to be defeated,
but to win success, and he did win.
general Grant said he would ' fight
it out on that line if it took all sum
mer." That declaration was the
mire proijheey of success. Defeat
was not admitted into the pro
gramme, lie will hold on and
tighten the grip. The more despe
rate the ouilook the firmer the hold.
He wiil never let go. There is a
beautiful allegory or fact, as one
may interpret it in the Scriptures,
of Jacob wrestling with the angel,
and would not let go his hold until
he had obtained what he was strug
gling for. The old patriarch had a
strong grip. He was an early type
of success a man of faith and action.
He wrestled, held on and prevailed.
The men w ho succeed in the pro
fessions have tli is strong grip. Gen
ius is not an element of positive
success. There have been no greater
failures made in this woild than by
men of genius who lacked grip and
slaying power. What is needful
is the power to hold on, and if need
he, to grub at the very roots of
things until victory comes. Lawyers
succeed in that way. The most suc
cessful members of the bar have this
toughness of fiber. Clients know
that these men will hold on and
wring a victory from the very jaws
of defeat, if possible. They go to
them in time of trouble not because
they arc men ot genius, but because
they have pluck, toughness, fiber,
the power to fight it out on that line
"if it takes all summer." When it is
said of one that if he meets with any
discouragements "he will drop the I
tools and run," it may be set down
that no great success will crown his
efibrtc Somewhere lie muf t right
his battle lor life. The men who run
away don't live to fight their battles
another day, as "Iludibras" has it.
They may live, but they don't fight
at all. When it is said that one has
good fighting blood in him, the best
of qualities has been described, pro
vided his pluck and comage have
been rightly directed. The success
ful men of the world have made
scores of failures. Bnt they did not
let go for all that. There is a sig
nificant saying in California about
certain men, that they have "gone
over the grade." Why go over at
all ? In the more essential fact, the
man who has this tenacity, this
power to hold on, never goes over
the grade. That is, he is just as
much of a man after he has made a
series of failures as he was before.
In fact lie is probably stronger.
There was a re;ent case of suicide
in this city of a young man who left
behind him a note, which by any
fair interpretation, ment that he had
lost his grip, and for that reason de
clined to lay hold again. It was a
declaration of a lack of pluck,, cour
age, endurance, with an indication of
disappointment signifying a neglec
ted genius one who had failed to
win a fair recognition. Without
knowing anything special of the cir
cumstances of the man, the case may
be taken as a typical one. He did
not propose to fight it out on any
line for success, but let go his hold
and dropped out of-the world. No
doubt, the kind of reasoning here
disclosed shows a morbid and un
healthy mind. Hut this very condi
tion comes from gloomy introspec
tion, from brooding over a want of
success and taking it to h.eart. In
the long run, every man who has
eonrage, pluck and endurance will
find his plaee,. or at least one where
he will win a fair measure of appre
ciation. Men who achieve marked success
bide their time. How long have
the seeat artists of the world waited
for success? Scholars- and literary!
men have fought their way in obseur
iiy for y?is. No doubt, some
fields are more promising for literary
men than others. But it is a part of
the business of one wanting recogni
tion and appreciation, to find his
field to fight for the occupation.
If one sort of work does not win, try
another, Until the right vocation has
been found. Suppose a young man
tries liteiature, the most uncertain
of all vocations. He does not suc
ceed, lie imagines he does good
work, but it is not wanted. Does
the world neglect him more than
others?Nota bit; the world does
not care for one's pretentions. It
only wants to know who can do
certain kinds of work better than
others. It may be slow in finding
this out. But it does find it out in
the long run.
The man who lets go his grip, be
cause he has not succeeded, and
leaves the world as a suicide, shows
that his jiidgemen! has been strange
ly at fault. He has undervalued
life, has trifled with it, and he goes
out of the world more as a trifh-r
than as an earnest and courageous
man. There is no belter moral for
such cases. It is a running away on
the battlefield from duly and from
life, and that is the realistic view
which every brave and healthy soul
is compelled to take of such instan
ces. The failures of life are a part
of its discipline. Soldiers who suffer
defeat are a' I the better because they
have been nnder fire; and there will
cornea time when these veterans will
surely win the victory. In the long
run, every defeat becomes a condi
tion of success if it is rightly turned
to account. Somewhere in the world
every good man and woman is
wanted. Their work, life, patient
and courageous example, arc wanted.
The men who let go the grip, leav
ing senlHicnial notes behind, leave
nothing which can be helpful to those
who are still fighting the battle.
There is no example of foititnde,
courage or high endeavor. Of those
who go by suicide because they have
become insane from infirmities which
could not be helped, nothing is said
here. Bnt letting go the grip be
cause there is a conviction that there
is a lack of appreciation, it is little
to say that they have undervalued
life and have not had the eonrage to
fight the battle for success. Morning

forthern Pacific B. D. Lands.
What is demanded of the
Northern Pacific Railroad, says
the Ectst Oreionian, is that the com
pany be compelled to convey their
lands to the actual settler at a maxi
mum appraised value 2 50 per acre.
At the time the last extension was
granted the Northern Pacific Com
pany agreed to sell their lands at
this figure. Greed and extortion,
however, will always find means to
avoid their engagements where they
have no conscience to appease. The
Northern Pacific, the Oregon Im
provement and the Oregon Railway
and Navigation companies . have
formed a mutual benefit association
and are playing into each others
hands as against the people's inter
est. In Whitman county, W. T.,
sham sales of these lands have been
made by the Northern Pacific Com
pany to the Oregon Improvement
at $2 60 per acre, while that
company appraises the land to the
actual settler at from $10 to $15 per
aere. This practice the company
will folloir up as they come into pos
session of the lands by completing
sections of the road. The settler
cannot pay this extortionate sum and
the result is the company will rob
him of his lands and obtain the ben
efit of his improvements and outlay
of money. The people of this
country, Republicans as well as
Democrats, equally see their danger
and are equally anxious to avoid it.
To this end is proposed that printed
petitions be circulated in every vot
ing precinct in Eastern Oregon and
Washington petitioning Congress, as
above stated, that in case a futher and
unmerited extension is granted the
Northern Pacific that it be coupled
with a ; proviso, unambiguous in
its terms and not permitting of evas
ion, compelling a sale of these lands
to the pioneer who redeems them at
the maximum rate of $2 60 per acre.
We hope and believe the general
press will "spread the good work."
Colored umbrellas to match the suit of
the wearer 're coming into fashion. This
is truly unfortunate. Hereafter the man
who steals an umbrella will be obliged to
go to the expense of buying a suit of clothes
to match it unless, indeed, he can steal
the suit when he steals the umbrella.

there was something he wanted to remem

Mr. Lincoln was aske.l which of two
programmes for his inauguration ha preferr
ed. Throwing one leg over the back of the
chair, he told "a story:" "When I was
practicing law in Illinois, a client of mine,
a peculiar sort of a fellow, was brought be
fore the court and the Judge aske.l him:
'Do you swear or affirm?' 'Mr. Judge,'
my client repied, 'I da't care a curse
which."
Together they were looking over the paper.
"Oh, my, how funny." she said. "What
is it ?" he asked. "Why, here's an adver
tisement that says: 'No reasonable offer re
fused."' "What's so odd about that?"
"Nothing, nothiAg," she replied, trying to
blush, "only those are exactly my senti
ments." If that young man hain't taken
the hint and proposed right then and there
she would have hated him. Jlnnz Sentine7.
