E. Cr. ADAMS. Editor & Proprietor,
tETTEU FRO.II CALIFOKXIA.
Hanford, Cal. Fob. 12, 1883.
Maj. AoxMS-Denr Sir: AVe are again
disappointed, the weather here this win
ter h&s proven itself tickle to our entire
satisfaction, in fact as u disappointment
Xhts an eminent success. This after
iiooTi for the thirteenth time, has it
mtorted, stormed, torn up the ground for
fioura at a fime and just when everv one
had settled the matter in his own mind
that we were going to have a pour, the
wind would whip around into the north
in a trice, clear away the clouds and the
heavens would be bright, clear and look
as innocent as though the earth never
had need of rain, and all the weather
prophets were ready to exclaim, " I told
you so." Well, Ik; that as it may, here
in Mussel Slough and over rriost of Cal.
wc have one settled fact, that is, the
earth is dry, very dry, so much so that
no amount of raia will make a full crop
this season, and that blessing is very im
probable. The winter here has been
very long, cold and dry, nothing is grow
ing at all, almost evjry night, it varies
from a heavy frost to a hard freeze, in
the day-time it is mostly pleasant.
The Columbian strll comes to us a
welcome messenger. It is always freight
ed with "news of oi?r friends, and they
are tli3 ones of whom we nio like to
read. It is always sought for with ea
gerness by all the family. It was with
peculiar feelings that the writer read in
your last paper received the uath of
that man with a big heart and ir'.n
frame, John Gum, for it brought vivid
ly to mind a little episode, which was
enacted in the streets of St. Helen, in
the days by gone, of which only two men
living, perhaps, beside myseliwere spec
tators J M. Joy and C. G. Caples.
For some fancied insult John Gum had
8 worn in hi wrath that he would chas
tise the writer within an inch of his life,
of this threat the writer heard and was
prepared to defend himself,- and one day
when qu!etly passing along the street
from the court-house to the Taylor
House alone, when John Gum, from the
direction of Wra. Meeker's residence es
pied him, and with a muttered threat
threw down his load and gave chase.
How his ponderous feet thundered on
the hard ground as he came on, boiling
over with rage, with the writer how
calm, how "determined; yet amid all the
varied emotions of my breast one feeling
arose above all others with such force
that the exclamation escxped my lips
"John Gum I pity 'Ou." I was fully
prepared for the emergency. I fully not
ed his advance without ever turning my
head and calculated that he would over
take me about the time I should reach
the sidewalk at the Taylor House, that
he would strike at me as soon as near
enough I' did not question, but I intend
ed to try and evade the force of the
blow and then shoot him to the very
death, there was no one to interfere.
But just as I was expecting him to
strike, for now I could see his long shad
ow on the ground, lie suddenly stopped,
turned on his heel without saying a
word, and resumed his iournev while I
quietly pursued my way. What came
over hi in that he should so suddenly
change his mind and tactics with me is
only a matter of conjecture. My feel
ings afterward were strange, unutterable.
The thought that f had so nearly ben
the means of cutting short the life of a
human being was painful to me, and
now upon reading thai nature had in
her own way performed the task that
had so nearly been mine, brings that
scene vividly to my mind. May his soul
rest in peace !
Mist, but to us it was in some respects
very dry, not just the kind of mist that
we most desire, but none the less accept
able for we are just now in a condition
to accept mists in any maiiner, in this
respect we don't stand on ceremony.
Come again welcome Mist, but can't you
be a little more moist just now
The two subjects that interest us just
now above all other.- are rain and irriga
tion ; these are bring -discussed in all
their bearings, while a portion of our
people are trying' to invent some mode
of briuginir moisture from the clouds Sy
the explosion of dynamite in their nidst.
Others are with great earnestness dis
cussing riparian rights. The more agi
tation the greater the. obscurity, for but
few know just what their rights are.
What the result may bo none can tell.
Yours trnlv,
R M. Watt
From "The Times.'
Editor of Times: The veterinary de
partment in your valuable paper is al
ways read by one with great interest,
and I value the information received
from it a hu ltd red fold more than the
small amount paid for the paper. One
year ago you published a letter from I)r
John Bates, relating the wonderful suc
cess he had had in curing spavins and
and splints with Kendall'3 Spavin Cure,,
and his illusion to using it now in hi.!
practice for several human ailments on
account of the success he has always
had with it. The above statements from
so prominent a physician gae me gieat
faith in its efficacy, and as I had been
afflicted for years with rheumatism and
hip-joint lameness so bad I could hardly
walk at times. I procured a bottle and
as it has completely cured me, .wish to
proclaim it to the world, as the most
wonderful discovery eer mad for the
benefit of afflicted men as well as for
the poor horse, for which jit was tirst
used. As this remedy must be of incal
culable value to the world,! I write this
letter to express my thankfulness to you
for ever mentioning it in your columns,
and to ask another favor in beh-alf of
mv fellow men who are afflicted in bodv
that you continue to rAake known to the
world, the &reat value of Kendall's
Spavin Cr f ir loth mm as well as
Wast Respectfully yours,

The flings of the mist all recoil on it
self. Jt will be a cold day when the
editor of the mist or any of his cronies
tar and feather any 44 old" man in this
community or any other community.
I lis item is a fabrication of his own
brain like his immense subscription list,
Ife forgets how he applied a mostoppro
prioUs epithet to one of the purest and
best women that ever dignilied the soil
of Columbia County by walking upon it.
He forgets how the leading ladies of
Vancouver felt like giving him a coat,
of tar and feathers for leaving his wife
and tender babe to be supported by
working in the kitchens of Mrs. (japtain
Troup and Sheriff Durgin. It does not
appear he contributed much to their
support, or they -?oukl not hae been
driven to such hard alternatives of
drudgery. He might have sent them
for all ve know a chromo. It shows
conclusively how big the set that light
us is by putting such a ligure-head as
Glendye on their shield. Perhaps they
think he will get whipped out anyway,
and it will be no consequence, as he is
like the miser's liberality, nothing to
nobody. He tells a-bont 41 hoodlnm ero
nies." We wonder what class he belongs
to, or where is the hoodlum would feel
honored by his acquaintance. He inti
mates he is yonnj, perhaps lie docs this
hoping to be able to impart some love
soft-sodder to Birdie Darling. Where
is the dye he so plentiously uses, he has
to append it even to his name? We
think he had better itp and grow up
or blow up with the country. Wonder
whether he is old enough to wean.
The Albina Herald twits us about
mortgages ifce. Arc. Some people have
nothing to mortgage except their soul
to the devil, and we don't think the edi
tor of the Albina .raid has anything
but a gizzard. Nobody his a lien on
his press, he has got his press to get.
We think he had better have his paper
published in New York and sent out ir
a condensed form, and then weaken it
down with mist. He should swallow a
dictionary, or Charley Muckle's primer.
He spells St Helen with a double "11.'
We suppose he would spell " God" with
a little "g." He is the boss spellist, He
has a sharp eye to correct proof. He
says we live in a Frog-pond. If we do
why should we be scared at a tadpole ?
He publishes " What he knows" in not
quite a column. We think that is
spreading it out too thin. We think a
very short paragraph would contain it
all. Our buggy troubles him, belter be
buggy than lousy. We think he resem
bles Gambetta or rather Old Betty. He
had better go around and stick his nose
in everybody's private business, as he
did in that fellow's tli.V, tore the seat of
his pant jumping over a fence in Albi

dollars. It is fine land and well worth
the money. He has done much work on
it. The title is perfect, and soon there
will be a godd road to Rainier, which
will make it convenient of ingress and
egress Mr. Frierson had the pick of
chums in that locality, and secured one

his hide on yet, and has many good'

S. A. Miles. He has two sons, editors

In the atlair of, John Gum it seems
hard to accuse S. A. Miles7 of sclflshneps
when John Gum's tirst it lea was to leave
his property to S. A. Miles' children,
and it was changed to the school-children
of St. Helen and Columbia City
districts at S. A Miles1 suggestion.
