FOOL LEGISLATION.
A ncgio has brought suit against
n barber at. Oakland, California, for
refusing to shave him. The suit is
brought to test the recent civil rights
bill passed by the California legisla
ture. It is such pieces of what Arte
nius Ward ca.'ls "damphoolishness'
that makes the average citizen tired.
Against the African there exists a
feeling that could hardly be classed
us prejudice, but which draws the
line between Caucasian and African as
distinctly as nature has done. The
races wi'l not mix, nor should they.
The self-respecting, self-veliant Negro
docs not seek to do those things
which he feels are distasteful to
others. lie may have an honest
pride in his race; he may feel that
he is as intelligent, as honest, and as
much entitled to respect as any other
man on earth: but lie knows that the
way to maintain that self-respect is
to not force himself into the corn
pan' of those who do not desire him.
He knows his place, whether it be
higher or lower than that of others,
and he keeps it.
And we want to say right here
that the Negro who brought the suit
to compel someone else to servo him
is not half the ignoramus the fellow
was who introduced the bill, or the
members of the legislature who passed
it. Men cannot be legislated into
equality, and race prejudices cannot
be removed bv law.
Everything points to a rrosperous
year in The Dalles. The season has
been backward about coming for
ward, and the result has been bene
ficial to the fruit industry. It is ex
pected the crop of strawberries at
Hood lliver. Mosier and here will bo
an extraordinarily large one, and the
apple crop should also bo large. The
area in wheat, is at least not less than
the average, and as the ground is
thoroughly soaked, the crop will be a
large one. Prices also bid fair to
remain where the' are; if, indeed,
they do not go higher, and this is as
important as having a guod ciop.
The wool clip will be up to the
average, and while prices will not go
up with a bound on account of the
tariff, they will advance steadily, and
be far Ijetter than last year. Since
the roads have gotten into passable
condition, freight teams are begin
ning to airive from Princville and
other interior points, and business is
steadily improving. The outlook is
very cheerful, and we believe that
our business men's books this fall
will show a larger and more profita
ble trade than they have far several
years.
Some fears are expressed that
there is to bo an unusually high
water the idea being based on the
heavy snows arcun.l the head of the
Columbia and Snake. While it is
true tho snow fall has been heavy,
that alone is not sufficient to predict
high water upon, that depending en
tirely on tho manner in which the
snow molls. With a late spring, fol
lowed by continuous warm weather,
there is snow enough almost tiny
year to cause a Hood; but as the
Snake usually is falling before tho
Columbia reaches its Hood, the lower
river is large enough to carrj away
tlio waters without damage. A few
cold nights or days will kill any
chance of very high water, and these
nro pretty certain to happen.
There is only one good thing that
we can think of resulting from tho
failure of tho legislature to meet, and
that is tint the salmon fishing was lot
nlono. Every year, or rather every
session of the legislature, an attempt
is made by those lisliing on tho lower
river to get up some scheme to pre-
vent salmon being caught by any
persons but themselves, the particu
lar object being to do away with
fish wheels. As this is about the only
means by which they can be caught
on the upper river, their abolition
would turn the whole business over
to the fishermen of the lower river.
No such bill can ever pass, but the
legislature failing to meet saved the
trouble of fighting it.
"Where is Miss Staplctonf" is n
question being asked b' many of
our exchanges. Mrs. Annotta Green
of Alabama is in Portland, Oregon,
looking for her niece, Helen Ida
Stapleton, who formerly lived in
Seattle, for the avowed purpose of
making her her heir, and bequeathing
her the sum of -'00,000, We have
always been reticent about our past,
but we feel now th:it in ordot to re
lieve Mrs. Green's mind and prevent
the good old lady from being im
posed on, the veil should be lifted.
We are Miss Helen Ida Stapleton.

Two years ago R. J. Warren, a lru;
uist a. Pleasant lirook, I. Y., bought a
small supply of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. He sums up the result us fol
lows: ".U that time the goods were un
known in this section ; to-day Chamber
lain's Couuli Kemedy ia a household
word.'' It is tiie same in hundreds of
communities. Where ever tlio good
qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy become known the people will have
nothing else. For sale by Blakeley &

The man who eats because tie is hun
gry is, thus far, on the level with the
brutes. The man who stops eating the
moment his hunger is appeased is the
wise man. Nature needs no more food
than he calls for. Continued excess
brings about indigestion or dyspepsia,
with loss of flesh, strength, sleep, am
bition and mental power, and an ac
cumulation of aches, pains and many
dangerous local maladies.
The stomach now can do nothing
alone. We must appeal to some artific
ially digested food which can also digest
other fo)l That is to say, we must
use the Shaker Dige'tivo Cordial. The
effect is prompt and cheering. Tlio
chronic pain and distress ceases.
Appetite presently revives. Flesh and
vigor, gradually conies back, and tho
sufferer recovers. Rut he must be care
ful in future. A trial bottle for 10 cents.
Laxol is the best medicine for chil
dren. Doctors recommend it in place of
