RATHER A CURT REPLY.
The Portland pitpatch furnishes us
with an incident which goes farther to
show the bitterness of the lT. P. R. R.
"system." It appears that when the
pilots of the American " Brotherhood
wished to visit The Dalles on official
business, they divided the delegation,
expecting of course that the cottrtesv of
a complimentary ticket would lie ex
tended to them by both the TJ. P. R. R.
"system." and The Dalles. Portland and
Astoria Navigation company. The latter
line at once issued transportation, in
eluding meals and berths, and seemed
io leei pieasea to ao so. mat part of
the delpgation however, which applied
to the "system" were flatly refused, and
were rather ' curtly -informed that as
walking was good they bad that alterna
tive, or pay their fare, as the Union
Pacific was opposed to any and all other
Unions. The gentlemen decided to join
their comrades on the Dalles City, say
nothing abount the slight, and pay their
fare as other passengers, but somehow
the matter leaked out, and the purser of
the Dalles City refused to take their
monev. What makes the nmtlor nil tho
more aggravating is the fact that the ap
plicants were all old time masters and
pilots, in the employ of the selfish and
sordid monopoly.
The plan of attack on the McKinley
law is to take it piecemeal one item jit

nd the free trade guns have been lev-
eiea at three of them without the slight
est appreciable effect for exactly 102

would take more than 700 rears to iwt

The Union Pacific will deadhead every
corrupt politican and every truckling
newspaper editor in the state of Oregon,
from January to December, but it would
not give a pass to its own officers to at
tend a meeting of a brotherhood for
"The Umatilla county convention have
instructed the delegates to the state con
vention to support Hon. J. H. Rayley
for joint -senator for Umatilla and
Union counties.'

know why Mr. Jacksou thinks it wrong
to kill bed bugs.

A Tremendous Barley Farm.
" "We have now secured 850,000 acres
of land in North Dakota, for barley
farms, and next spring we will send"
thousands of German emigrants to that
state from Ohio-, West Virginia and In
diana," said Colonel O. M. Towner as
he discussed the future of this irreat
northern state. Colonel Towner is man
ager oi wnat is oesi Known as tne isarley
syndicate-of Chicago. ' During the last
two or. three months the company has
succeeded in securing 250,000 acres of
1 ATI l In Wntk rWlrn. v 44. 1.
proposed to place Oerman farmers to
raise barley for malt- purposes. These
lands have been purchased in Kelson,
Norman, Towner, Ramsey, Steele and
Bottineau counties. - r:
- It is -the opinion of the managers of
this company that barley can - be most
succesBfolly grown in that state, and
they have the conviction of their belief
sufficiently to purchase these lands and
to send ont emigrants from other states.
The Germans are chosen on account of
their knowledge of barley culture for
this purpose. . These emigrants will not
be tenants, bat owners of the land, it
being sold to them on easy terms. The
crops will be bought by the company
and shipped to all points where there is
a demand for barley. St. Paul Pioneer

The female waup spends- the winter in

selected the retreat she proceeds to lay
within it the foundation of a home. For
this object earth will not serve her turn.
The substance of . which "the walls and

.1' flat Car WhffU. ..
"There's a fi;it wheel on this truck
under thi end of the car," ttaid an die
official who sataiii the back scat of the
rear :ar of tt pasnenr tnuii. :That
uiUHt be taken out. It luigbt wreck the
train." . . . '
"What'saflat wImmjI" asked thescribe.
Liatun,"" said the railnail man. ;"Vou
hear that rapid pit-pnt-pat of the wheel?
That's cauei by the Hat wheeL On a
pot on the surface tit ihej wheel a flat
place u worn. .11 may be done, and is
generally, by xetting up a lr.iki'no tight
that the wheel slip uu the rail.- Lot it
slip bnt the least, yei - a .aiuall place na
larger than a nilver dollar will lie word
on the wheel. The next time; the -brake
is set np hard the wheel stops with that
same place on the rail, and " it is worn
larger. By the time it is a couple of inches
in diameter it begins to pound every
time the wheel turns, " instead of ruu
ning a true circle as it revolves, the fiat
wheel strikes flat on the rail -when, the
fiat spot is reached. Th consequence is
that when the flat spot has grown to be
three or four inches across it is a very
dangerous thing. Every stroke against
the rail by the flat side of the wheel is
liable to break the wheel and ditch the
train."
Around the shops and at nearly every
cripple track in the railroad world these
flat wheels may be seen.' As soon as one
is discovered the pair of wheels affected
is taken ont and sent to the junk track
to be cast into new machinery. The flat
spots are plainly perceptible, bnt they
would hardly be judged by the unini
tiated to be of sufficient . importance to
be one of the most dangerous elements
of railroading, yet such is the case.

Thumb Rings.
Men's thumb rings are no rarities to
collectors. ' Some of the Roman speci
mens must have been cumbrous wear,
one in the Montfaucon collection, bear
ing the bust of Trajan's consort, Plotina,
measuring over three inches across. Me
diaeval churchmen "of high degree did
not allow "the largest, first and shortest
of the fingers" to go unadorned. A mas
sive gold ring was found upon the thumb
of the supposed skeleton of Hilary, bishop
of Chichester, who died in 1 169; and the
recumbent effigy, of Bishop Oldham, in
Exeter cathedral, is remarkable for the
pressed together thumbs being inclosed
by a single ring.
When the shrine of St. . Thomas a
Becket was robbed of' its treasures, the
famous archbishop's thnmb ring, given
to him by the king of France, graced
with a ruby the size of a hen's egg, found
its way to the thumb of bluff King Hal;
and as the humor of the king is always
voted just the thing, we may be sure the
royal hand was not the only one so
ducked at court. Mayors and aldermen
imitated their betters. . "When 1 was
about thy years, HaL" says the fat
knight, "1 was not an eagle's talon in
the waist; 1 could have crept into an al
derman's thumb ring." Chambers Jour

. How Thread Is Made.
To 'make a spool of thread the very
best Sea island cotton is used. This is
taken in the raw state and torn to pieces
by a machine called a breaker. It is
then freed from its impurities by several
other machines, after which it is taken
np by; a "slipper" and twisted into soft
yarn. Several strands of this are twist
ed into one fine thread; three of these
are then . twisted sogether. making the
six-cord thread, which, after being
bleached, is ready to selL Philadelphia
Ledger. .
The marble capitol building at Hart
ford is 800 feet long, and the engineers
declare that it is three inches longer in
summer than in winter. - -
