If Boss Moody desires the success of tbe republican ticket at the next election he had best put a padlock on the mouth of the fool he has hired to run the Timet-Mountineer or otherwise put a limit on his rations of liquid refresh merits. "Dead things crawl," says that servile sheet, ominously enough. If the Mountaineer's borrowed latin is intended to. mean that Saturday's work was a Moody triumph, more than a dozen men on the successful ticket will resent it as an insult. If it was a triumph of Moody it is the triumph of a boss who has butchered every ticket he has helped to make for half a score of years ; it' is the triumph of a man who is bound hand and foot to the railroad corporation that has held us in its grasp for years; it is the triumph of a man who will bend every effort aDd sacrifice every principle to control the state ticket, the only ticket in which the masses of the people have any real interest. In a word, if it was a Moody triumph, it was the triumph of the ame man who became the subserv ient tool of the Union Pacific last fall in the efforts of that company to drive the people's boats from . the river, "Dead things crawl," ay, that they do, and, if "bossism always meets defeat in the re publican party," as this silly braggarts boasts, the party will resent a state ticket dictated by a man who has proved himself to be the most dangerous enemy the people of Wasco county have to- con tend with today. Bossism in anyone may be contemptible, bossism in Moody is destructive and calamitous. . The importance of sending the right kind of men to the state conventions of the two great political parties cannot be overestimated. The success of either at the polls, fo far, at least, as the state ticket is concerned, depends entirely on the selections made. The local interests at stake are entirely too great to allow mere partisan politics to interfere. The party that nominate a railroad' man to the legislature will be defeated. More than this, the candidates must be clear of all railroad influence. The Union Pacific will watch the coming elections and support with all its influence the caen it can best use to serve its purposes. The spending of $100,000, by that com pany would be a bagatelle, if so be it could defeat another state portage. This is the only regret we have in connection with the outcome of the republican primary elections. It gives a confirmed . and avowed enemy of the people a standing in the state convention, a standing he ought never to have ad, and a standing, if we err not, the peoplo will deeply regret. The dethronement of Farley is nothing to the Chkonici.e. Better men than he have been downed. ' The enthronement of Moody is a menance to the liberties of the people." " There is no hope for a dalles portage built by money appropriated by the gen eral government. The effort to obtain an appropriation -was honest and well meant, but it was a forlorn hope from the beginning. If the government will lcttlie work by contract and have it finished in two years the state can have s a portage built by that time, and if the stale ever builds the portage, it will to built on the Oregon side of the river, and this means infinitely more to The Dalles and Wasco and Sherman counties than if it were built on the other side. From the quantity of school latin in the Times-Mountaineer last night it is suspected, that the editor must have dis covered some fragments of his lost "uianuscrmts.'' "f v Death abovo ITer and Death Itelow. Clinging for her life to a rough beam , while a flying express train thundered and swayed above her head! Swinging . in midair, with death above and below her, until almost exhausted by fatigue from the terrible strain! T --.-' This was the dire predicament - in which Miss Norah Oldham, of Nashville," was placed, and- it was only due to her cool- judgment and calm presence of mind that she. was saved from death. In attempting to cross the "railroad . trestle whjeh-extends from Cedar street to beyond Line, she was run down by . an express train, the engineer of which,1 Dickson, was trying to enter the Union . depot on time and had been running un usually fast for some minutes. . She was compelled to let herself down on the outside of the track anj hang ' on until she was rescued. Memphis Appeal Today's dispatches tell us that Sena tors Dolph and Allen stood aide by side, in the senate yesterday, in a fight made for the settlers within the forfeited por tions of the Northorn Pacific grant in Oregon and Washington. The bill un der consideration was proposed by Sena tor Dolph to return to the settlers . on these lands $1.25 per acre of the amount they had paid when the land wasBoldto them at the rate charged for within the limits of the railroad grants. The bill received favorable consideration- in the senate two years ago, but this year, for some unaccountable reason, it was antagonized both in' committee and on the floor of the senate by a strictly patty vote; the democrats in both places maintaining that the money should not be returned. - No. fairer measure ever came before congress. Settlers who paid $2.50 an acre for their pre-emptions or commuted homesteads did so under what was practically an assurance by the government, that a railroad would be built contiguous to their claims. The road bifB not been built. The odd sec tions have reverted eo the government gets the minumum price for the whole and ought to return to the settlers- the excess which it has received, under what has proved to B3 a false pretense A Cordial Reception. Early one morning, recently, I called to see a gentleman who had not yet left his bed. I was met at the door by a woman whose sleeves were rolled ud. who wore an ample apron upon which were various spots of flour and whose face was not entirely free from similar spots. It was "bake day, but she did not embarrass me by any reference to the ract or any apology as to her appear ance. , She asked me into the parlor and after sending one of the children up stairs to notify the father of my pres ence, re-entered the parlor and chatted until her husband appeared about vari ous topics in an entertaining, easy man ner, quite as though she had been ex pecting and was all fixed up to receive me. . It was simply delightful and my great grief is that 1 have no sufficient excuse to make another early morning call at the same home. Detroit Free Press. A Way of Cooking; Rodents. The negro slaves of Jamaica nsed to regard rats as a dainty, their masters not providing them with any other meat. Their method of cooking the toothsome rodents was to impale, each one on a long wooden skewer, after cleaning the animal and cutting off the tail, turning it briskly around over a fire until the hair was all burned off. Then it was scraped until free from fur, and finally the end of the skewer was'stuck into the ground, inclined toward the fire, until it was toasted dry and crisp, thus being made ready for the meal.
