MARION HARLAND'S LATE ESSAY.
Quite a New Phase to the Woman Ques
tion The World Open to Her.
SCBBtl " A3 ADVANCED POSITIONi
Kat it Is Taken by m Woman in Words
. ' Which Carry Convincing Proof
of Fact Other Notes. '
- '.- ' - . . .. .. V .
"Washington June 20. Here is a new
phase to the woman question. In. a re
cent eesay Marion" Harland expressed
her hope that the movement in behalf
of 'the sex will soon be -abandoned.
There is now, she says, , little need of
these agitations or for endeavors-looking
to the advancement of one sex as apart
from the rest qf manldnd. "With the
world of knowledge and opportunity
thrown open to her, it argues little for
her ambition and less for her ability to
grasp cardinal principles that she elects
to build fences about , her reservation."
Thus it is that Marion Harland thinks
talk about womans emancipation . is un
necessary. Woman is already emanci
pated. This is surely - an advanced
position to take, yet it is a woman ' who
takes it, and there is conviction in bey.
words. It is an encouraging fact that in
certain phases womans progress has
come to the ultimate of success. In cer
tain fields she is now completely, free.
After slavery was abolished who talked
of abolition? Woman is rapidly getting
to the . place where ' her freedom, her
right to work and . ti compete, will be
considered, as things to be taken for
granted, without comment, without'Bur
prise. , ".

Good Crop Prospects A Sick Rooster
-.- Minor Topics.
' Kisgbley, June 1S.- Since election is
a thing of the past everyone around
Kingsley has settled down to work, and
to consider the part they had played in
the game. Some of the republicans that
helped to defeat, part of the state and
county ticket, are disgusted' with the
crowing of that sickly looking rooster
that appeared in the Wasco Sun. Judg
ing from 'appearance be was looking for
a hole to hide in and we certainly would
advise him to do so for on the first part
of November the grand old party rooster
will crow so loud that he can ' be. heard
from Maine to Washington, with a hip
hip hurrah for Harrison.
Frosty nights are over .and the grain
is growing in good shape. I believe the
frost injured the grain more than the
hot weather ; for we have had no -real
hot weather and there is considerable
moisture in the ground yet, and my
opinion is that we' will have plenty of
grain on Tygh Ridge this fall, j ..
The inhabitants of Kingsley were
startled last Wednesday, morning by the
statement made by, John Koth that some
one had stolen a horse -and Saddle from
his ' barn' the ' night- before, . there .he
learned that a party, with a band of
horses had camped at Kingsley the night
before, on their: way across the moun
tains. '" So brave John ''started off alone
to capture the whole band of horse
thieves and recover his stolen .horse and
saddle) but to his surprise when : he
caught up with thejn be found neither
horse nor saddle, so he turned.back dis
gusted and on arriving home found his
horse and Saddle in the barn 'where he
had overlooked them in the morning. "
The farmers' aiyance are about to'
build a new hall at Kingsley. I do not
known the size of -the: building, but
judging from the pile , of lumber on the
ground it is to be a large one.... , .

' Helena Dispatch..: Governor : Toole
has issued a proclamation forbidding
the bringing of sheep into Montana from
Oregon ty Nevada, California, Washing
ton, Idaho' or Utah.- The proclamation
was made on a showing made by Veter
inary Surgeon ' Hqjloway - that sheep
from .the states named were infected
with scab.- From 4,000 to 5.000 sheep
from outside points are held by 'Hollo
way at Butte. Montana sheep have not
been affected with scab or other disease,
and it is the intention of the authorities
to keep np a good 'record. '
CHICAGO MOSAIC.
Kvcry Candidate. Confident of .Success
.' , This Week.
Chicago, June 20. The. uncertainty !
of Illinois, Kentucky and Indiana, is a
grand factor in the hopes of candidates
now. Should these three states cast
their ballots for a "favorite son" the
possibilities of. Clevelands nomination
would be remote from what it is. The
leaders are John M. Palmer for Illinois,
Henry Watterson for Kentucky, and
Senator Voothees for Indiana, a strong
team; it must be admitted. Illinois is
for Palmer, Kentucky for Carlisle, and
Indiana for Gray. Delegates are prac
tically free, in those three-states, and,
acting as they please, have held, a con
ference, but it is not known outside just
how they will cast their 104 votes,,
Tammany has let go, enough to- estab
lish the belief that the empire state will
go for Harrison if Cleveland is nomi
nated. In short, the harmony expected
between the Syracuse and Tammany
factions may never be realized. If Tam
many fails in securing its nominee, its
whole' strength will be thrown against
the nominee of the convention. They
mean rule or ruin. These threats do
not terrorize the Cleveland contingent,
who look to the Michigan Gerrymander,
and to the prospects in Kansas, with
confidence that "Cleveland can , be
elected without Tammany."
But with-all these-reasonable-thaories,
Senator Patterson, of Colorado,, says
Cleveland would' not only lose New
York, but almost certainly several
southern states, owing to the alliance's
deep feeling on the coinage question,
and by such loss the democracy would
surely lose. . ' 1 -
If people continue flocking into Chicago
for the next few days s they have the
past week, it will seem less accurate to
speak of.. the democratic convention
present at Chicago than of Chicago, pre
sen at the democratic.. convention. The
city : appears to have fair v - lost her
identity in the crowd.
It is worth while for temperance ad
vocates to take notice that inChicago
the price 'of beer, such as it is, and pure
water, are now .very nearly the same.
Water that is said to be pure, bearing,
generally', - some high-sounding name,
costs ten cents a gallon in ten-gallon
lots. ; Beer is obtainable by the keg at
the rate of 4 a barrel of thirty-six gal
lons. . This makes it cost about eleven
cents a gallon. That pure water should
get beyond the financial -reach of many
while beer should slip down until it "be
comes a rival of nature's beverage is
unfortunate. It operates against all the
work - of temperance organization,
Keeley institutes and so forth, and fur
nishes an easy apology for "the beer
drinking habit. - ' , -
' " The Souvenir Half.
Washington,; Jnne 20. Representa
tive Durborow called on Saturday, at
the treasury department and iiad a long
talk with Secretary Foster with regard
to the minting of the souvenir half dol
lars for the worlds fair. Secretary Fos
ter eaid that he would willingly lend any
aid in his power to the proposition to
make use of the mutilated coin now ' in
the treasury for the purpose of these
special ; pieces. , Altogether there is
about $14,000,000 of this mutilated coin,
but about half of this ie in dollars or
quarters and . dimes. The $7,000,000
worth of half dollars is what will be
probably used for the purpose. This
money while not actually an asset is
carried as such on the books . of the
treasury, and -to make use of it in the
way indicated will make of it an availa
ble asset, while ;it is . unavailable at
present. -.
' - ' w III Fire the Jitravx. ;
Fossil Journal. , The dry, hot weather,
which had seriously damaged the wheat
on Sbnttler Flat two weeks ago, has de
stroyed, it almost entirely now, arid
farmers are getting ready to fire the
straw and commence plowing for sum
mer fallow. They are much discouraged
and cruelly disappointed, as the crop
looked better month ago than ever be
fore at the same season In this end of
the county, though badly scorched in
places, a good rain would yet insure a
fair crop.' . Unless we have rain within
a week there will riot be enough : grain
left in the country to make seed.

A Decision Which My Prove of Vnlae
In If:trininlnfc Similar CnnteHts
s - Klnewhere.
Chicago, June 20. It would have
been unfortunate, for many reasons, if
the purpose of the late John Crerar to '
endow a great public library in Chicago
had been set aside through technical
flaws in the bequest. Thus far the courts
have sustained the will. Judge Gary of
the Appellate court has confirmed the
famous ruling of Judge Tuley, and the
contestants of the Crerar will liuve no '
standing in court." It is unlikely that
any further contest will be made, and
the executors are free to set about,
the fulfillment of the trust. It is not
alone because Chicago is the beneficiary
of Mr. Crerat.s bequest that public opinr
ion rejoices over the finding 'of the
courts. The professional will-breaker
has received a check, and these Illinois
decisions may prove of value in deter
mining similar contests elsewhere. Just
as tne breaking of the Tilden will in New
York was demoralizing, the sustaining
of the Crerar will in Illinois will inspire
future benefactors of like character.
There was a marked similarity in the
contests in these two cases, but the Tilden
will was made invalid by-a pecularity of
New York laws that does not obtain in
this state. The execution of the Crerar
trust will give to this city another splen
did library. .It is matter for coiigrativ
lation that there will be no diversion of
the magnificent bequest from the object,
contemplated by the giver. .
Kntnor Concerning a Dalles Kostr-
Oregonian. The Union Pacific steamer
D. S. Baker will- resume business on the
Upper Columbia between The Dalles and '
the Upper Cascades August 1. The
boat was hauled out in the spring and
given a thorough overhauling and is now
practically a new steamer. The whait '
boats and other properties have been,
repaired, and it is thought that the en
ormous grain crop will be handled easily ..
The Regulator of the Dalles City, Port
land and Astoria line, will be placed on
the route, and some rate cutting may
be expected.
