THE FIGURE THAT RULES.
T
HE SUBJECT, if we may humbly be allowed to
be alliterative, is approached with dubiety, del
icacy and despondency that of woman's shape as
the dressmakers ordain it., Why then write about what
you are ignorant of, with whfch as a trfera maje . creature
( you haVe no buiinessf Ask the moth why it flies into. the
' flame, the gambler why he pawns his waistcoat for a last
i stake and appears half dressed jn the morgue. Woman,
f woman's form; womairV dress,' are intensely interesting
t subjects, and man will hover and flicker about them, and
dart into- them, and go broke on them, until this old
earth. is repeopled by philosophers instead of, .fools.
), So what we ket down herein, let it be duly and clearly
; stated Iff advance, is not byray of criticism, much less
censure, but only as the maundering of themanvwho

It is Mr, Carnegie's undoubted, privilege to couple his
gifts with whatever conditions he chooses, or not to give
at all, but while there is something to be said in favor
of his condition, . it is not without objectionable and
embarrassing features.-. Suppose a small college needs
and could 'well use $100,000, and make itself thereby a
far more useful institution than it is, it mast raise $50,000
before it can get. Mr Carnegie's $50,000; and while he
(an give away Ithat amount many times over- without
missing it, its acquisition. by the college, within its en
vironment and among its friends, may be a very dif
ficult task. Then, it may be said, it is not worth help
ing or worth existing.., Perhaps, and yet we cannot-feel
any great degree of enthusiasm in applauding gifts made
in . this way. - i.-';',..l'.;'A-v-'?' r'.V . J'x' t ;'.

At least fn a new eonntrf like the Pacific northwest we
csn expect only "smaU"colleges for a long time yet, but
they can be made and we believe most of them arc not

giving money to help establish libraries, will be to

be drawn between large and small colleges we are not
informed. But as in the case of libraries, Mr. Carnegie's

PAST AND PROSPECTIVE.-
ECENT NEWS ITEMS concerning the irrigation
of the sinds adjacent to the old town of Uma
tilla, or Umatilla Landing, as it waa known in the
ante-railroad days, will bring to many old-timers visions
of the past of that town and vicinity, ss well as td the
newer people visions of the future as those wind-drifted
sandf shall appear after water has done upon them its
perfect work. Both visions are interesting, and. if ; the
one of the future is more important,: the one of the past
Is' the more romantic, though one could scarcely say that
it presents many artistic features. ,r - '1 ' '
Umatilla is situated on, and in, bed of fine shifting
sand, on the south bank of the Columbia river, nearly 300
miles from Portland , by rail, and a mile or two above
Umatilla river. In the early days, the
60's and 70's, it waa the point of transfer from boats of
the old O. S. N. Co. to freight wagons for all the supplies
of the interior intermountain country,'. away through to
southern Idaho?" AU the mining camp and stock ranche
and interior ettlements6f this vast region were supplied
by teams that toiled through the heavy sandr out from
Umatilla Landing-i-team of from eight to fourteen
horses or mules, the larger teams hauling two wagons,
loaded with about 1,000 pounds to ?in animal. ; These
were great days for Umatilla, -which grew to an, unique
citjf of perhaps t.500 inhabitants, and "hot old ipwn?
it rvften undoubtedly was. , t t . " ,(. t.
With the advent of the railroad all this business passed
- - . " - ' ' j 1
away, and Umatilla rapidly dwindled to a. hamlet of 100
inhabitants or so. Many of the old buildings, and nftt
small ones cither, for such a place, became half buried,
at least on one or two sides, in sand. The welcome
whistle of t,he upper river bosts were heard no more
The V.R,& N.. kept a few; people employed there, and
a few others staid on for old associations' sake, but for
30 years the town, as compared with its former glory as
the greatest freight transfer point in the interior north
west, became a dead add even a buried thing. -
But there is to be a resurrection, if reported plans and
projects are successful, after which that ancient city as
eastern Oregon annals go, and that region, above and be
low, for thousands of years but a sand waste, will take on

mann, coaaul.at Mains, Germany, haa
aent a translation of a recent article In
tha Frankfurter , Zeitung, giving an In
teresting theory of tha . origin of the
mualc. v !i !
In the publication Heaaanland Vohann
Lawalter glvea axpreaalon to hla opinion
that "Yankee DoodU" waa originally a
country dance af a dletrlet of the former
province .'of .. Kur-Heaee, called the
"Bchwalm." . ' -
. It la well known that 1 the tun of
"Yankee ' Doodle" ' waa derived from a
military march played' by the Ileaatan
troope during, the war of tha revolution
in America. . In etudylng th dances of
the Schwalm, Lewalter waa btruck by
tha similarity' In form and ryhthm of
"Yankee, Doodle"' to the mualc .of theae
dance - Laat year, at tha "klrmesa'f of
the village of Waaenberg, when '-Yankee
Doodle" waa played, the young men and
girla swung into a true "Bchwalmer"
danoe, aa though th mualc. had been
composed for It. During the war of
177 the Ohlef recruiting office for tha
enlistment of the Hessian hired soldiers
was Zlegenhaln, In Kur-Hesse. It, there
fore, aeema probable that the Heaslaa
recruits - from, ,the "Schwalm," ho
served In-the pay of Great Britain tn
America during the revolutionary war,
and whoae military band Instrument
consisted of bugles,' drum and -flfte
only, carried over with them the tune,
known . to them from childhood, and
played t as a march. ' ,
