provision for them says: "And the
superintendent shall" secure at these
meetings, as far as practicable, the at
tendance and co-operation of school of

that teachers are only one-third of those
mentioned. Now, yon are invited to the

, "' The Hood River, Democratic Club.
Hdqbs ..Democratic Club, )
'. - Hood River, Jan. 20, 1891.J'
The democratic club of. Hood River in
a special session held Jan. 30, 1892,
unanimously appointed the undersigned
committee to draft the appended resolu
tions, expressive of their views and
wishes in connection with the present
status of democratic affairs in The Dalles,
and the immediate requirements of pur
party in Wasco county :
Resolved, First, That early, efficient,
organized democratic clubs in the vari
ous precincts of Wasco countj are very
desirable, and to further this end we
earnestly desire the chairman of the
Wasco county democratic committee to
be of unquestionable integrity and busi
ness sagacity. .
-Second, That the main hopes of com
plete success depends on our getting in
our ranks those elements (hitherto al
most neglected) comprising the young
voters and business men. . ... .
Third, That the powers that be, to the
best of our knowledge and belief, are al
lied .with mere office seekers.
Fourth, That this club, from its. nu
merical strength and standing will cer
tainly make itself felt in . the future
councils and conduct of the democratic
party of Wasco county. "
Fifth, That in Mr. Maier, of The
Dalles, there exists elements of unex
ceptional strength as chairman of the
democratic county committee of WaBco
county, and in hini will be united every
thing which tends towards democratic
success in the coming campaign.'
- Sixth, That the. Hood Kiver Demo
cratic club unanimously endorses Mr,
Maier, and earnestly requests the best
efforts of every lover of pure democracy
in The Dalles towards the election of
Mr. Maier as chairman of the Wasco
Couuty Democratic committee.

the Legis-
The Salem Journal says ; , "There is a
harmonious relation between the gov
ernor and tne legislature on the subject
of a portage railway. Both are com
mitted to it. It . was recommended by
him and passed one house, and was de
feated in the other ; not upon its merits, '
but as a mere by-play of politics. If the
same legislature were called together, it
could in two weeks provide for a portage
railway at The Dalles. The people of
Eastern Oregon are entitled to it for the
marketing of their present and their
next harvest. A succession of bad
years, with failures of crops and losses
of stock, has left them in bad shape.
Last year's big crop has only partially
put them on their feet. Good snow
falls indicate a big crop in 1892. The
prosperity of that region absolutely de
mands the opening of the Columbia,
and it has been proven that a portage
railway will open it. If the governor
wishes to do .something for that section
he should call the legislature together
and demand of it relief for Eastern Ore
gon.'' Now is the time to do it. It
could not refuse to comply. It would
not dare to not act. With an . election
just ahead of it, it would not fail to act
rightly.
- Tiddledy Wink's Party.
A tiddledy wink's party was given
last night at the residence of Mr. I. C.
Nickelsen, to a number of young friends
of the Misses Christine, Julia and Clara
Nickelsen. The young folks were
promptly on time at seven o'clock and a
.lively game was kept np till nearly ten
o'clock when, after a bountiful refection
they parted for the night, all agreeing
that they had spent a most enjoyable
time. The head prizes were won ' by
Mi8 Pearl and Master Carl Williams
and the boobies by Miss Annie Keller
and Master Jack Pruyn.
The following are - the names of the
participants : Matt and Jack Pruyn,
Carl, Robert and Pearl Williams, Annie
Keller, Georgia and Victor Sampson,
Archie and May Barnett, Paulina Drews,
Hilda and Oscar Beck, Gussiff Meins,

A Terrible lasvet.
- A sailor on s " coasting ' vessel which
plies between Galveston and porta on
the gulf has some very interesting spec
imens which' he secured' while on the
coast of Yucatan. Among them is a
large jarkfilled with, enormous spiders,
which he says are - looked .upon with
greatest fear by the Indians of the cen
tral portion of that country, and which
are undoubtedly the largest ever seen.
The body of the spider is fully five
inches in diameter -and. the legs are
short and thick, being especially adapted
to running and climbing. They are
about two inches long and are as big
around as an ordinary lead pencil. The
animal is of a grayish brown color, but
is most peculiarly marked by deep red
bands, which cross its body, extending
clear around diagonally from shoulder
to hip, crossing each other at the middle
of the back and the center of the belly.
The fierceness of the insect and the
marking on the back have induced the
Indians to name it the "Devil's Soldier,"
and they say that it is4 undoubtedly the
worst foe to man in that -whole country,
making it almost impossible for any one
to go into the interior, for it abounds in
such numbers that no place is free from,
it, and its bite is certain death. ' . ';.;
Only one instance is known to Indians
where a man has been bitten and 'did
not die, anS this man was wildly insane
ever afterward. The spider makes its
home among the rocks, and when any
thing approaches it rushes boldly 'out
and makes an attack so fiercely that it
is almost impossible to - escape it. ' It
runs with great rapidity and climbs
sticks and trees as easily as if it were on
the ground. Atlanta Constitution.
Many Pretty Bed Coverings, .
There ' are, and probably always will
be, many who prefer the all whit bed,
and'for thesejnany pretty bed coverings
are provided. Linen . shams, with bor
ders of elaborate drawn work, are used
with plain white Marseilles spreads. An
tique lace of firm, fine texture is always
suitable and ' makes a dressy bed, used
either over white or some delicate color..
The figured China and India silks used
during the last year or two are also still
in favor for bed and bolster coverings,
but a newer material for this purpose ia
the Hollywood sheeting, a fancy double
width material of soft, cream-white cot
ton, whose rough surf ace is exceedingly
effective when wrought with the simple.
showy patterns employed for this work.
A. very Handsome one designed for a
white and gold guestchamber has a con
ventional pattern ' scattered over it.'
worked in shades of yellow and brown.-
The pattern is first outlined with a long
chaiu ' stitch, the leaves and shadings
marked, then . the intervening spaces
filled with a simple-filling stitch, which
is very rapidly done and is yet exceed--
ingly showy. The spread extends over
the pillows, and a band of colored rib
bon, matching one of tho lightest shades
of silk, is passed across, the bed just be
low the pillows and tied in a handsome
bow. Chicago Herald. ' --
