A DEAD DVDE.
Ward McAllister is dead and buried.
It is more than sixty years since the
time when his littl pink toes, as a re
minder of his Simian ancestry, shut
themselves down towards the eoles of
the baby feet, in the instinctive effort
to grasp in quadrumanian style some
imaginary branch or limb. It is sixty
years, and more, since his toothless lit
tle mouth drew from his mother's
breast the genuine Holstein or Jersey
lacteal that nourished ' his patrician
body. And what a sixty years they
were for him. For the greater part of
the time his brainlet has devoted the
entire time to the fitting of garments,
the measuring of that great human
family, of which he was only second
cousin, by the accidents of their birth,
the size of their bank accounts, and
their relationships with certain Ameri
can aristocrats whose immediate ances
tors were plebes from Plebeville. The
Astors, whose grandfather was a very
good trader,, the Vanderbilts, whose
grandfather was a very good boatman,
were eized up by him as being by their
wealth fit associates for the Stuyvesants,
the Van Rensseleare, the descendants of
the wooden legged governor of New Am
sterdam, and the Knickerbockers.
While the idea of an American aris
tocracy is amusing, McAllister's queer
combination, as above stated, would be
bard to find any reaeon for. He went
through the world a leader of fashion, a
moulder of "sassiety," and a dictator as
to who should and who should not be
admitted to the New York society peer
age. But he is dead, and the poor body
will soon furnish pabulum for the 400 of
New York's select grave worms. At his
funeral that great American smooth
bore, Chauncy M. Depew, considered
himself honored by being allowed to
assist as a pall bearer, and across the
coffin a representative of the Vander
bilts assisted in carrying to the hearse
all that was either mortal or immortal
of the defunct tailor's dummy.
Society New York society mourns
his loss. He was the brightest holly
hock in society's garden ; most brightly
colored butterfly that ever spread its
wings to the glare of the sun, forgetful
that it was once a slug and a chrysalis ;
most arrogant toad in the puddle of
toads that were famed for their arro
gance only; chief dude, of proportions
gigantic enough to dwart all other would
be dudes into dudelets. And yet he
' died. Death loves a shining mark ; also
a mining shark,. and gave him a swipe,
just for his glitter, for in the world be
was no use, and it is hard to understand
what use he could be put to in the next,
When the last day comes and Gabriel's
trumpet sounds, then the weary bones
of the great Ward will 6tir, and a faint
voice will be heard querulously inquir
ing for his lavender pantalettes and kid
gloves, and he will never fall in line
without' them.
THE TRUE ANARCHISTS.
There is no explaining why both the
United States courts and congress man
age always to find eome way in which to
give the public domain to corporations
The recent action of the court of appeals
at San Francisco, in deciding that the
Oregon & California Railway Company
oaa earnea auu.uuu acres ot land near
Forest Grove, modestly estimated to be
worth $1,000,000, but probably worth
$5,000,000, is one of these inexplainable
cases. The United States contended that
the grant was to aid in the construction
of a road from Portland via McMinnville
to Astoria or rather that there were two
roads, one to McMinnville from Portland
the other to Astoria, and that the grant
was to the latter. The courts decided
that there was one continuous road from
Portland to Astoria and McMinnville
and that the construction of the road to
McMinnville entitled the road to the
1 1 . . . WW.
lanutj, as iar aB mat point, rue case
looks like a cold steal, but it is in keep
ing with the custom of courts and con
grese, lor neither were ever known to
render a decision or perform an act favor
able to the people as against the claim
of a corporation.
The anarchists of this country who
will eventually cause a terrible upheaval
are not the Johann Mosts, the Fieldings,
the Spies, the Lanngs. They are the
Huntingtons, the Crockers, the congress
and the' United States courts. With
these and such as these lurks the danger
to our institutions.
Senator Smith of Wasco and Sherman
counties has introduced a sensible bill,
which would settle the question of mak
ing the Columbia riyer available aa a
means of getting the products of the
eastern portion of the state to market.
It iB short and to the point, simply pro
viding that when switches are put in at
Celilo and The Dalles, the O. R. & N.
shall furnish cars and haul them be-
ween the points named for stated
prices, it tne oui com a De passed ana
enfored it would be a great thing, but as
the courts would have to construe the
law, it would be many years before any
settlement of the question could be
reached.
It is now claimed that the anti-Dolph
legislators are going to attempt to block
all legislation. As it seems quite proba
ble that the railroad commission and its
fellows are to be continued, it is perhaps
the most creditable thing that faction
has yet done. If there can be no repeal
some of . the old laws, the next best
thing is the prevention of any ne w ones
A Froper Bill.
The following resolution was intro
duced in the Washington legislature,
and it should not only pass that body,
but should be indorsed by our own.
Whereas, The low price ot farm
products necessitates their delivery at
points of exehange or sale, at the lowest
possible price for freight charges; and
Whereas, The Columbia river, if un
obstructed, would furnish a cheap and
effective means of transportation to a
large portion of the state of Washington,
which is now at the mercy of railroad
transportation lines; and
Whereas, The United States govern
ment has adopted the recommendations
of a board of engineers appointed to re
port on the same, in favor of a ship rail
way to overcome the obstructions at the
dalles or Tnmwater falls of the Colum
bia river, and an appropriation has been
made to begin such improvements; and
Whereas, Experience has demon
strated that more efficient and speedy
work results from contract work than
from work under government charge;
and
Whereas, The interests of the state
demand an early" completion of Buch
mprovements at the dalles or tumwater
falls of the Columbia river, in order that
such improvements may be operated in
connection' with the canal and locks at
the cascades of the Columbia river;
therefore, be it
Resolved by the house of representatives
of the state of Washington, the senate con
curring, That the senators and repre
sentatives of the state of Washington,
in the congress of the United States,
use every means in their power to se

such improvements under contract ; and
be it further
Resolved, That the secretary of state
of the state of Washington be and is here
by instructed to furnish a copy of this
resolution to each of the United States
senators and representatives of said
state.
Ten days loss of time on account of
sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any'
thing but pleasant for a man of a family
to contemplate, whether he is a laborer.

O. Jones, publisher of the Leader
Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten
days with the grip during its prevalence
a year or two ago. Later in the season
he had a second attack. He says: "in
the latter case I used Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy with considerable suc
cess, I think, only being in bed a little
over two days. The second attack I am
satisfied would have, been equally as bad
as the first but for the use of this rem
edv." It should be borne in mind that
tne grip is much tne same as a very
severe cold and requires precise!; the
same treatment. When you wish to
