C P. Allen of Pomeroy, is the first
. man we have ever beard of opposed to
an. opea Columbia-river. ''Tie does so in
the Independent of the 2d. We extract
-one one paragraph of his argument. He
.-says: "Now suppose the river is open
"for practical navigation and gets its
-share of the, traffic; then we can see the
williuny of 'tho atrocious scheme. For
example, we will say that the river robs
the railroads of one-fourth 6f their
freights; that it is easy to see the roads
would have to add one-third to the
.present exorbitant rates, to realize the
profits they now enjoy. Thus forever
. -preventing the legislature from reduc
ing rates to tlte level it would be possi
ble, without an open river. If you be
jeve in a repuoiican lorin of envern
merit, if yon are loyal to the true princi
ples of democracy, let us have no side
tracking of vital issues: for we nmnnap
to reduce freights without bankrupting
tne roads, and without appropriating
millions ot dollars of the producers
money to open a public highway for in
corporated capital to monopolize." It
seems to us n woeful waste of time to
reply to such statement as the above.
He would reduce freights without bank
rupting the roads. Can it be possible
that Mr. Alien ia so blind that he cannot
ee that the people aro bankrupted by
the roads annually, for the want of an
open river, free to everybody? What
"incorporated capital" conld "monopo
lize" an open river?
. The 10,000,000 silver coins which it is
.proposed that the government shall issue
for the world's fair will have the weight
;and fineness of the present half-dollars,
.and although their .face value will be
- $5,000,000 the cost of them to the govern-

.most objectionable feature of the propo
: sition is that it authorizes the secretary
ot the treasury to purchase American
..silver bullion in addition to the present
monthly purchases to an amonnt suffi
cient to enable him to comply with the
- terms of the act, and the sum of $4,000,-
000 is appropriated for the purpose.? As
vthe government has on hand nearly
$15r000,000'-fractional silver coin, most
of it, we believe,, in the form of half
dollars, and as thisuncorrent coin has
ior years ueen an incubus on the treas-
ury, the purchase of silver bullion for
the world's fair tokens would be sheer
waste of money. If the issue of the
' tokens is decided upon the recoinage of
wincurrent fractional silver is the best
-und, indeed the only rational way of ob
taining the metal for the new pieces.
Postmaster General Wanamaker has
issued another advertisement for bids

provides for --mi. increased ocean mail

iforeign countries, with a view to the in-
"ereaee. of commerce. -., It is known that
several steamship companies which did
not bid for service under the first adver
tisement are ready to do so nnder this
one. Bid are asked for all of the routes
for which contracts were not let under
the first advertisement, including that
from San. Francisco to Hong Kong."

PLUCKY FEMALES WHO COMPARE j

Mrs. Anna Kim ball's Daring Frut of Bill
ing Itfffure a Herd of Stampeding Cattle
to S a Man's Life Mis Millard- soU
Her Claim TTiat Uldn't Stay "Jumped."
Thro was a heroine of the cattle trail
whose name was at one time, back ia
the seventies, heard in every camp from
the Cimarron to the Brazos. Anna Kim
ball she was named, and she was tho
wife of a camp inanaser. one of those
characters who took care of the tents,
the cooking and the baggage of the cow
i , .
uuys wnen a greai nera was on its trav
els from the southern ranges" to tho
northern feeding , grounds. . One day,
when a herd of 6,000 cattle was camped'
near the Salt Fork of the Arkansas, in
the Indian Territory, she was left alone
in camp while the cattle were feeding'
near " by. Suddenly, from some cause
never to be explained in a case like that,
the herd lifted its thousands of heads
and- following a few excitable leaders
started on a stampede. Such a cash is
death to any one in its path, and Mia,
Kimball anxiously looked over the prai
rie to the north, whither the herd was
tending. A few hundred yards ahead
of the bellowing beasts there was a
white hat showing against the green of
the plain. It was one of the herders
who had dismounted, "and his pony had
deserted him.' He was directly in the
path of the oncoming avalanche of
beef. The animals, blinded with their
panic, would trample him into the earth
without a pause. '
Only a moment remained tnr i'tinn
-The woman was the only one near the
tront or the herd. Leaping npon a pony
she lashed it forward.
after another, until she was ahead of the
herd, when she dashed directly in their
way. Should her horse stumble she,
too, would be lost. But the horse did
not stumble and Mrs. Kimball came
nearer and nearer the man now racing
at his best pace toward her. At last,
when the thundering host was not more
than three rods behind, she leaned far
from the saddle and lifting wirli h-
suddenly strengthened arm the herder
by the waist, she threw him , across the
neck of her pony and went racing on
until they were without the range of the
cattle. -
It was a deed which few men could
have accomplished, and the handsome
watch presented her by the men at the
end of the drive proved that, hardened
as they were, they recognized a brave
act. 1

there must not be omitted some of th
women who have taken im f 1 Alma and
defended their rights against all comers.
oeverai instances or tnis kind of bravery
have gained state wide notoriety, and
jnptlyso. They endured hardships and
took chances which entitled them not
alone to 160 acres of land, but to the
best wishes of the whole
their lot was cast
A Miss Millard took up a claim near
the Kansas and Nebraska line, far out
on the main. She hnif Ivpn i -iw,i

the drudgery of her position. She select
ed a handsome ouarter section and nrn.
ceeded to make a homestead entrvjind
to reside on it the required six months.
She had been on the claim but a few
weeks when one day she noticed two
rough looking men near the little cabin
in which she lived. She watched them
until thev had withdrawn
tance, and saw them point to the quarter
section eagerly, as discussing its possi
bilities. The next day she was compelled
to ride to the cottntv iHKtnfrw-A ti
miles away, and she took care to take
her shotirun - with her. On her mtn
she found that her claim had heen
'jumped" that is. the men had tabcii
possession of her cabin and proposed to
treat ner.as an intruder. As she came
near they motioned her to keep away.
out siie aia not need them, and sudden- ;
lv brinsrimr her mm to her KVmnlrlar aha
discharged a load of shot into the side of
the cabin. ' j- - -
The men were nrohablv niurmni far
toey uiu not. stop to . dispute possession
at that time, and vacating the house ran
out to the prairie. Tho girl took the
house, pleased with her easy ' victory,
but she reckoned without her host, for a
few moments later she saw smoke curl
ing np from the grass a few rods away.
They had begun to light the prairie fire
and would burn her out.
FIGHTING TWO. MEN.
Determined to bava a taste of . re
venge first, the girl drew from its hiding
place a loaded rifle, which she also kept
by her, and scut a ball so close to the
depredators that one of them, had an
arm shattered. Then she took a wet
bednuilt. and running oat to meet the
fire, pounded it along a strip as wide as
the cabin. .There was a high wind, and
the flames swept by on either side, unit
ing again at a little distance, leaving a
V shaped piece of sod, at the base of
which stood the cabin. The men had
all they could do to care of the wound
ed arm, and when the smoke cleared
away the plucky little ax-school teacher
saw them still out on the prairie. ;
;Now that, the danger to herself was
over, pity came to the surface and she
went out and helped to bind np the
'stranger's arm, sending hirn off with her
own pony to the doctor's. Somewhat to
her surprise," as she afterward Confessed,
the pony was ,re turned to her in safety
and she was never again troubled with
claim jumpers. She owns now her claim
and considerable stock. ' ' n: .V : ' - '

to state that the" "Oregon" is the strong
tit lime on the market ; that it will vtork
