Friend Dean:—I have been here
twelve days, and I am some better
than when I left Coquille City. I
got to Roseburg on the tenth, and
left on the eleventh for Portland
where I laid over one day; had a
pleasant ride and the scenery was
beautiful, and everything was grow­
ing. The rain fell until we reach­
ed Eugene City, when the sun com­
menced to shine.
The Willamette
valley hereabout is beautiful, and
ou down to Salem, it must be seen
to be appreciated; but from there
down to Portland it does not look
very healthy—too many marshes

The Dalles at first mountains tim­

stumps and trees tell what has been
there. The scenery is charming;
little streams pouring down the
rocky cliffs almost perpeudicular
hundreds of feet high on the

Columbia river. We had a good
view. We could see but few hous­
es, as there was nothing but rocks

and I soon start over the Blue
mountain. The track followed a
stream up to the summit, over a
rocky, barren route; then we went
down the Grand Ronde river to
the valley. It is a beautiful valley.
The train stopped at La Grande 30
minutes. I saw the hot springs
and lake near that place.
After
about an bom ’s run, the cry by
brakesman of “ Union!” was heard.
I took my gripsack and stepped
out on the steps when I was start­
led by voices “ there he is,” and
sure enough there were my friends
of other days, glad to see me.
Here, the curtain drops. I have
enjoyed myself since I have been
here, aud and I expect to go out
and see the gold mines in about
two iveeks.
Yours etc.

Boise, Juno 1.—Judge Hayes,
the democratic United States judge
of this Territory, is doing noble
work in clearing the Territory of
the right wing of Apostle Taylor’s
renegade Mormon polygamists.
The other day he closed his re­
marks in sentencing a batch of
them with these words:
This
Asiatic plant [polygnmy] cannot
flourish in Anglo-Saxon soil. This
relic of barbarism must give way
before a higher civilization. Your
crimes must be abandoned and a
higher grade of morality be adopt­
ed if you expect to prosper in this
country. The safety, the lmpiness
of families, the good order of so­
ciety, the preservation of public
morals and a due regard to public
decency demand a rigid enforce­
ment of law.
L f t l c r F r o m EI<1. I l o l l r n h c a k .
Ed H e r a l d :— Once more we de­
sire to say a few words to our
friends through your newsy colums.
The spring has been late here.
It has only been about two weeks
since we had warm growing weath­
er. On the first of May there was
a heavy frost, and at first it was
thought that the fruit was all kill­
ed, but there will be considerable
apples. Parties coming recently
from Rogue river valley and Siski­
you county, Cal., state that the
fruit crops are about all killed in
those parts. Other crops -here are
looking fine in this valley.
By the time this reaches your
readers, we will be on our way
borne. We expect to start the first
day of June, and will be there in
time to fill my regular appoinlment
the third Sunday in June.
W itli love and best wishes to all
I remain yours very truly,
S. B. Hollenbeak.

T h « E le c tio n .
The election is over and the peo­
ple will settle back now to the old
standard. Just what figure you
have cut in the late struggle mat­
ters little, so long as you did your
duty. I f you exceeded that, you
were to blame, and no doubt you
feel badly for it if you did.
For
the next two years bitter partisans
will be trying to reinstate them­
selves into the good graces of their
former friends who were of a dif­
ferent political name. To say that
all passes off with the best of feel­
ing is not true; however many will
claim this. Newspapers that call
candidates of an opposite party all
sorts of rough names, and malign
them in every possible way when
there is no call for it at all, expect
the good will of the persons thus
abused. Of course they don’t get,
and it is natural and right that they
should not. If it were known by
all that what they said was purely
“ bunkum,” and gotten up for a
joke, it would be all right; but they
tell enough truth, which is judici­
ously mixed in, to make the whole
thing plausible. In this way some
are wronged, and often held in con­
tempt by good, honest people, in
consequence.
To prove that people do not for­
get these little political wrongs, we
have but to cite the rsader to the
“ kicker.” For years, he will hold
a grudge, and ou every occasion
where he can, he will try to “get
even.” One has but to listen, to
find out bow far the masses are led
by the lying of politicians, and
more particularly the press. Young
democrats will argue with you to­
day that Jas. A. Garfield was one
of the most infamous political
tricksters of the age and will give
you the campaign talk of 1882 as
argument
On the other hand
young republicans will say as much
of Samuel J. Tilden. What is the
reason? Each think their own man
was a perfect bundle of goodness.
They have listened to their own
side,and are become politically one­
sided. The press is to blame in
the matter, for it was not sincere, as
is evident in the cases of the death
of Garfield and Hendricks, where
all combined in saying: “a good
man is gone,” and|tbat, too, soon
after the most vituperative abuse.
The same thing prevails in Coos
county to-day.
The press that
made you out a scoundrel a few
days ago will speak a good word
for you when you are a corpse, and
many people will learn for the first
time—if they do not haDpen to
make your acquaintance in the
mean time—that you were not a
very bad man after all.

T h e P e n M io u Y e t a e i .
Washington, June 1.—The Pres­
ident, in vetoing three or four pri­
vate pension bills, on the ground
that there was no testimony to
show that the pensions should lie
granted, has stirred up a hornet’s
nest in congress. There are sever­
al thousand such bills up for con­
sideration before every congress.
Testimony is taken by the pension
committees of the house or senate,
reports made on each application.
I f there is merit in the claim, there
is little difficulty in securing the
passage of the bill. The bill, when
sent to the president, simply con­
tains the name of the individual,
and the amount to which he is to
be thereafter entitled. The presi­
dent consults the commissioner of
pensions, finds out whether or not
there ever was such a soldier, and
what his ground for asking a pen­
sion or an increase of pension is.
In the cases which the president
has vetoed it is claimed that there
is no evidence before the pension
office to show that the claimants
are entitled to pensions. The pen­
sions in this case were passed upon
by the senate committee, who say
they have in their possession abun­
dant testimony to justify the allow­
ance of a pension. They say, fur­
ther—and their opinion is that of
representatives and senators gen-
generally—that when a committee
of either house lias taken the evi­
dence iu a pension case, and decid­
ed that the pension should be al­
lowed, that ought to be conclusive
in the matter.
The president,
however, takes a different view of
the matter, and will insist on being
fully informed before he sanctions,
by his signature, the appropriation
of one cent of money for any claim
that does not seem to be thorough­
ly justifiable.
