OUR WASHINGTON" LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
"Washington, D. C. Nov. 18th, 1882.
It is understood that a strong effort will
Te made at the ensuiug session of Con
'gress to secure a heavy reduction of in
ternal revenue taxation This subject
-will come beforeTthe committee on ways
"and means if enough members can be
gotten together in advance of the meet
ing of Congress, but only incidentally
in connection with the subject of revi
sion of the tariff. The House bill to re
duce internal taxes passed at the last
session, is still on the table of the Sen
ate enacted upon, although it ha3 been
amended in various particulars. Amo
tion to take it up promptly will doubt
less be made and carried without object
ion when the Senate meets, when other
amendments may be expected to be ad
ded to it. It is not likely to get into
such a shape as to receive the concur
rence of the republican majority in the
House, and for this reason an attempt
may be made to report another bill for
action of the House. If the republicans
before they lose control of the House,
can pass a measure materially lessening
the weight of taxation, it will, to a ma
terial extent, take the wind out of the
sails of their democratic successors. But
the possibility that they will be able to
pass a measure of this character is quite
remote. The session will be short, and
by the time the appropriation bills and
their necessary measures are out of the
way there will be little or no time left
for action on a tax bilk
Secretary Lincoln will, in the annual
report recommend that no river and
harbor bill le introduced in the coming
; session of Consresa. He states that it
will be impossible to expend the amount
appropriated last session during the fis
cal year, and the balance, probable, $3,-
000,000 or $900,000, will be carried
over to the credit of next year.
It is understood that President Ar
thur will make civil service reform a
prominent feature of his forthcoming
message to Congress, taking strong
- grounds in favor of positive legislation
on the subject This he can now, very
conscientiously do since all of his friends
-and admirers have been generally pro
vided for.
It appears from an investigation made
into the rate of wages for farm labor by
the statistician of the Department of
Agriculture, that since the year 1879
there has been an increase amounting
to 21 per cent, in the Eastern States.
In the four years from 1875 to 1879,
however, there was a great decline, be
cause of the great number of artisans
who had taken to farm labor in conse
quence of the depression in manufac
tures. This seriously depressed the rate
of farm wages. Since 1879 the increase
in the Western States has been 14 per
' cent, and in the Southern 1 3. Wages
- generally declined gradually from 18C6
to 1375, but very rapidly from that date
until 1879, when an equally rapid rise
'began. There was an exception to the
rule in the South, when between 18G6
and 1869, in consequence of the high
prices of cotton, wages advanced. The
South exhibits the least fluctuation in
the rate of wages, this being attributed
to the improvement in quality and effi
ciency of labor. For example, the av
erage rate of wages per month was 1G
dollars, wlien cotton was 30 cents per
pound and 15 J dollars when cotton was
12 cents per pound. Statistics prove
that the district of high wages are also
those of large production and net profit
in agriculture, The average ra.te of
wages at present obtaining are-in the
Eastern States, 2G dollars Middle, 22 ;
Southern, 15; Western, 23; and Califor
nia, 38. Although these indicate a con
siderable recovery since 1875, there is
still a decline of 20 per -cent, from the
inflated rates which immediately fol
lowed the civil war.

reception to army olhcers exclusively
was to allow those Who do not go out
into society an opportunity to spend a
soeiable evening with their more active
comrades. Concerning Bob Ingersoll's
having nominated him for the presiden
cy in 1884, he said. j Oh yes! Mr.
Ingersoll says a great many things that
ho does not believe, I am perfectly con
tented with my career, and nothing
could induce me to soil my military rec

Letter from California,
Haxford, Cal. Nov. 28, 1S82
Maj. Adams Dear Sir: I am just p
little bit sorry that your conclusions
about election are not reliable for you
should have learned by this time that
the greater the load one carries, the
more liable he is to be beaten in the
race. I was too much endorsed, had
entirely too many friends, but the prin
cipal reason I was not elected was-tother
chap received more votes than I did, for
had he not done so, with all my endors
ing, I most assuredly would have been
elected, could not very well have helped
it '
Wo are having most lovely weather
cool nights, with just enough warmth
through the day to make one desire to
live thus always if such a thing were
possible. Last Sabbath with Mrs. Enoch
Meeker, Mrs. Watts and the children I
took a drive to King's ltiver eight miles
north of this. In the i morning facing
the lijrht breeze made the blush come to
the cheeks. We passed all the way
through evidences of ; civilzation and
thrift The appurtenances did not as
sume aristocratic airs but the fences.
outbuildings and cottages with their
wreath of flowers, fruit, evergreens and
ornamental trees tc iVc, farce one to
the conclusion that taste, refinement
and hospitality are chief characteristics
of the inhabitants of Mussel Slough.
The point where we reached the river
was where the Last Chance Ditch is ta
ken out. The bauks lof the river are
skirted for one fourth of a mile with
: najestic oak trees, with no underbrush
but a carpeting of rich tall grass that
keeps green the year round. Under
these trees, the ground was literally
covered with acorns, which are quite pal
atable and the way the youngsters en
joyed themselves for an hour, gathering
acorns would have done your heart good.
They would load their pockets and then
empty them into the wagon until tired
out, on being asked what they were go
ing to do with them, Manty replied that
when she went back to Oregon wanted
some for Major Adams.! In the evening
we returned home by j way of Grange
ville, all well pleased with the day's ride.
It does seem to us that your paper comes
very slow, we are so eager to hear from
you all. With our best wishes for your
self and family I remain
Yours truly
! B. M. Watts.
Letter from Albino.
Aldixa, Nov. 29, 1S82.
Friend Major: To let you know I
have not forgotten old tillicums, I send
you a few lines. After swinging around
the circle, and moving three times, wo
have finally got settled in this place. It
is very lively here, lots of men and lots
of money. The Company pay $24,000
a month to white labor and 18,000 to
Chinaman every month, so you see there
is a good deal of money scattered around
here. The cars run every day to and
from the end of the track in Mon
tana, and every Passenger train is load
ed, and so is the freight train The 11.
li. Thompson is the 'transfer boat be
tween Albina and Portland. We have
eight saloons here and three Hotels, and
boarding houses without number; houses
are going up like magic. I suppose the
people in St. Helen jare still excited
about railroad matters. I hope Capt.
Lemont will see the day when the cars
will run through his place, for he has
waited patiently for it.' I am sometimes
feeling like homesick when- I think of
St. Helens, for it was almost like home
to me after living so long in the place,
but I could not make a living there
without chasing lumber for it so I liad
to emigrate. Send me your paper and
I will be down in a we-ek oi two and
pay you for it Give jiny regards to all
friends and accept the same from,

A Son's Grief.
Riverside, Ogn. Nov. 29th, 1882.
Mr. N. C. Dale Dear Sir: It be
comes my painful duty to inform you
that father is dead.
He died by his own hand the day you
left my house.
He told me all about his affairs that
morning-. He said that he had paid ev
ery dollar that he owed, and told me
how much money he had left
He wanted me to go to school-meeting
but refused to have Capt Palmer stay
with him. 4 I
Palmer came up and father came out
to the door and told him to "go on to the
school-meeting as he wished to be left
alone. If e told me that he could stay
alone as well as not, as it was not neces
sary to give him his morphine until I
returned. We went and little did we
dream of what was to take place.
I came back about three o'clock in
company with seven men. They stopped
at the gate a short time, and I started
to go into the house. The door would
not open only about half way, and I
looked in and I saw the most terrible
sight that I have ever beheld. Father
was lying on the floor dead and his cloth
ing was removed. There was a large
pool of blood under him, and a bullet
hole through his left breast.
I stepped back into the yard, and
called to the men to come in, which
they did. My rifle was lying on top of
the wood-box with the muzzle pointed
towards the west, and in the direction
of his body. His cane was beside it,
and an empty shell in the gun. He had
evidently taken off his clothes for feir
of setting them on fire, and burning up
the house, and had kneeled in front of
the gun, and pushed the trigger with his
cane. He was so close to the muzzle
of the gun that his breast was burned
black with powder. An inquest was
held which brought in a verdict " Sui
cide." He was buried yesterday at two
o'clock on his home farm.
Yours truly,
R. D. Cole.
memorabilia of Yale College.
It was in 1845 that my brother John
and myself entered Yale College as
Freshmen. My brother was taken sick,
and lost a year, and graduated in the
class of 1S50, and I, 2 years the young
er graduated in the class of 1849. Our
mother and sister and younger brother
Joseph accompanied us to New Haven.
Our father was Domestic Missionary on
Martha's Vineyard, and while we were
in College sent as Delegate by Dukes
County, Massachusetts to the Evangel
ical Alliance in London. He travelled
through England, Ireland and Scotland,
France and Belgium.' He was in Paris
when Louis Philippe was dethroned, and
the last Napoleon took the imperial
crown. The different denominations on
Martha's Vineyard gave our father
$1500 in gold to pay his expenses in
Europe.
When we first lived in New Haven
we rented a house in Salem Street, then
one in George Street, then one in York
Street. Before we graduated our moth
er, vounger brother and sister returned
to New Hampshire. Jeremiah Day was
President of the College. He was soon
succeeded by Theodore D wight Woolsey;
James Kmgsley was Professor of Latin,
T. A Thatcher Assistant Professor. The

Hallo There!
Tlie Dalles-Mountaineer under the
head of Territorial has a fling at the
St Helen's paper. St Helen is in Ore
gon. A mint of Geography would be a
good thingfor the Editor. In an obit
uary notice of a minister's wife he called
the time-honored name of Abigail,
" A-big-nail " Probably, like Christ, he
was carpenter when young, and thought
he was driving a nail in the lady's coffin.
And now he speaks of Miss Eunity
Watson of Goldendale.
Why don't he tell some of his personal
history? Probably like the boy that
hung on the fence and waited for his
mother he has nothing to say.
He calls President Arthur, " Acting
President" We should think if Presi
dent Arthur read that he would resign
right away.
He says the people don't think much
of the Democrats; we should think they
thought more of them tlian of the Re
publican bosses.
He tells the reason the Republicans
last their grip. Now we will tell: be
cause they shoved durned fools like him
to thefront and made sensible men like
Major Adams take a back seat. The
Republicans are a great deal like a
school-director back in the States. Our
sister kept a school, and everybody liked
her because she was competent, but the
school-director, who wanted to provide
some place for a cousin aunt or niece,
said she didn't keep good order. He
got a little shallow-pated conceited no
body. She kept one day, the next day
no scholars came.
Major Adams didn't run away to Or
egon to get out of the draft or with any
body else's wife like so many of our
great, men.
Meeting About Christmas.

was voted that the various committees

to assist them. That the commictees for
Securing Tree and Decoration should
cooperate, and meet for plans on Satur

everybody everywhere to participate in
the Christmas celebration.

ment found in another column headed
"Pleasant and Profitable Work for Wom

offered to some energetic lady to acquire
a good income so easily. We. have it
on good authority that lady canvassers
east of the Rocky Mountains are mak
ing $75.00 and 100.00 per month sell
ing " Practical Housekeeping" k, " Man

dorsed by such eminent women as Mrs.
Henry. Ward Beecher, Mrs. Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, Mrs. Livermore, and
many others. Wo trust' that some in
telligent and energetic lady among our
many readers will take advantage of the
opportunity and secure the agency for
this, vicinity. It is surely worth trying
for.
Mrs. Thomas, on the Latona is a very
pleasant lady, She is r.ot scared to
death at being sociable, and enjoys a

merous to mention. The crowning ar
