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

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. Washington
