TIIE SHAME OF IT.
C. C. Garrett writes to the Spokes
man Review concerning Mrs. M. J.
Delaney, who started to Oregon in
1844 with her parents, both of whom
died on the way. With her brothers
autl sisters she reached the Whitman
station, and the whole lot were taken
care of by him. She was captured
at the Whitman massacre by the In
dians and ransomed by the Hudson
Bay Co. She is now poverty-stricken
and crippled with rheumatism and
resides at Farmington.
The story awakens sympathy and
pity, not for her poverty nor for her
crippled condition, for those things
are of the common lot. The sting
of the story lies in its tail, the con
eluding sentence being: "Does it
not seem a shame that she must now,
in her crippled old age, eat the
bread of charity and become a bur
den on her children, who are barely
able to care for their own families."
There lies, for her, the bitterness,
that in her old age the hands that
toiled until tbey could toil no more
lor her children, and that gave royal
ly, must receive the begrudged gifj;
of food from those who reaped the
harvest of her bounty; that the lips
that pressed the mother's kiss upon
the baby lips must ask that baby
grown to manhood for alms. Truly
it is a shame; but the shame lies with
those who think their mother a bur
den and permit her condition to be
come so grievous that the public is
culled upon to assist her.
While comfortably quartered on
the deck of an ocean steamer, the re
freshing breezes that gather inspira
tion as they sweep the silvery surface
of Puget sound, cooling his exten
sive brow and toying with his sorrel
locks, Joaquin Miller writes beauti
fully of the pleasures of Cloniyke
mining. He grows enthusiastic, elo
quent and poetical as he describes
the natural advantages offered by
Northern Alaska a run over the
Chilcoot, a float down the Yukon.
"Viewed from this position the Clon
dyke appears perfectly enchanting to
the old poet. He is going to stroll
over alone from Dyea, taking every
thing (including provisions) perfect
ly easy, and will jot down his experi
ence each day for his syndicate arti
cles. The letters descriptive of the
journey in will no doubt be rosy
hued and romantic. The prose part
will probably show up in the letters
descriptive of the sojourn at the dig
gins and the journey out. If there
is one thing more than another cal
culated to convince a man that "life
is real, life is earnest," and put a
saw-tooth edge on bis poetic nature,
we should imagine a winter in Clon
dyke on a dog meat diet to be the
thing. It will be interesting to con
trast the literary productions of Joa
quin Miller with those of Joaqnot
Miller. Pendleton Tribune.
The expected has happened at
Dyea, and 3000 gold-seekers are en
can" ped there waiting to get their
goods packed over the mountains.
That this was certain to be the case
was plain to everj one who had not
a coal oil can full of gold dust in
each eye. Given "1600 pounds of
stuff tD be conveyed thirty-one miles
by each person, the only means of
transportation being a pack train of
Indians, supplemented by the owner
of the freight, and it is not difficult
to reach the conclusion that the job
is a big one. Not half so difficult,
as to get the goods over the mount-
ain. Tlje result is as expected,
many already discouraged are selling
their outfits for anything they can
get, and returning to civilization, to
do what they should have done at
first, wait until spring, And Etill
the lush continues as fast as rotten

ding crowd, and it will continue
winter if transportation to Dyea is
provided.
The Editor of the Eugene Guard
confesses to not being farmer enough
to know whether thirty-four grains
of wheat in one head is a good yield
or not. This confession is decidedly
startling, but indicates that the pro
fession is advancing, and leads one
to hope that .the time may come
when the agricultural editor will
cease his long dissertations about
"The Best Way to Curry Hens," and
his labored researches along the sug
gestive lines, ''Plant Food Consid
ered in Relation to Its Effect Upon
Angora Goats." There are just a
few things "we editors" don't know
any old thing about, and one of the
few is teaching . a. farmer how to
farm.
We don't believe in the use of the
"K" in spelling Clondyke, nor do we
think the "i" preferable to the "y"
in Klondyke. The "i" might be all
right provided it beguu with a "C,"
and was spelled Clondike; but as the
department e'erks at Washington
know all about Indian names, and
everything else pertaining to the Pa
cific coast, and as they have decided
on K-!-o-n-d-i-k-e, Klondike, the
latter will have to go. After all it
doesn't matter much how it is spelled.
for the worst spell in connection with
it will be that the fellows on their
way there will have.

Remarkable Care of Chronic Diarrhoea.
In 1862, when I served my conntry as
a private in Company A, 167th Penn
sylvania Volunteers, . I contracted
chronic diarrhoea. It haa given me
great deal of trouble ever since. I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permanent relief. Not long ago a friend
sent me a sample bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
and after that I bought and took a 50
cent bottle; and now I can say that I
am entirely cared. I cannot be thankful
enough to you for this great Remedy,
and recommend it to all suffering veter
ans. If in doubt writ's to me. Yours
gratefully, Henry Steinberger, Allen
town, Pa. Sold by Blakeley & Hough
