FROM UNION TO PORTLAND.
Scenes and Incidents as Noted by H.
Emery, oa His Way to Wild
wood, Wash.
Ennon Oukoon Scout:
As many of my friends that I left
m Union requested mo to write back to
them, I think that I can interest-
them as well by sending a few
lines by the way of your paper, us to
write to seperate individuals. It may
not be worth my whilo to say much of
what 1 saw on my way from Union to
Portland for I presume the scenes I
beheld have alo been seen by many
of the Unionites time- and again, yet,
perhaps I noted some things that
some others did not. Wo passed
Meaeham at 10:55, Oct. (3th, passed
through the tunnel at exactly 11:00
a. m. 1 observed that the train ran
toward every point of the compass on
the down grade. Tho scenery was
monotonous and could not be called
grand. For a long distance at out
right was dry and nearly barren hills,
whilo at our left was a dense forest of
timber anil brushwood with but little
of the picturesque to interest tho
vision. That I noted most sublime
and brought to mind tho illimitable
eyes of the planet on which we dwell,
was the difWent strata or formations
that presented themselves to view
along the mountain sides to the right
., i; . !
as we neami tno reservation, rui
quite a distance I could tee tho differ
ent formations that marked tho
diiVercnt ages of the earth as strata
after strata could bo seen in the crop
pings of each age or epoch of time.
For miles I could sec eight continuous
markings at about equal distance
above each other. Length of time of
each formation none can tell.
The Ecenory across the prairie was
not very interesting. Not much but
grass, short, dry and sere. Much of
the way on either side was only
prairie away in tho distance till tho
vision reached tho horizon. Wo
arrived at Pendleton at ono o clock
p. m. and stopped twenty minutes for
dinner, I, feeling very much like
doing justico to most anything in tho
eatable line, took in a fair amount of
hot coiTee, cake and beans and topped
ofl with sugar as is my wont. Pendle
ton hnB an older look than I expected.
I saw considerable shrubbery and
fruits but the beauty of then was
spoiled by tho dust and sterility that
surrounded tho place. I noticed a
vast number of tacks of grain in the
neighborhood of Pendloton but could
not see any farm land that wo passed
through. As we passed down tho
Umatilla 1 noticed the hills wore
largoly composed of shell rock that in
many places had crumbled oil" in
great heaps at tho base. About tho
next that was worthy of note, (if I
may bo allowed tho expression) waH
tho sand along tho Columbia river,
and hero night closed in on all sur
roundings and wo passed down tho
river in d.irkness. At 11 :10 p. m. we
arrived at Portland and stoppetl for
tho balance of tho night. I will not
suv more now, hut will tell in my
next of somo thiuga I h:iw in Portland
und after wo loft tlioro.

vonttner. One of the most famous of
these women is Nanettn Daisy, a finely
educated and beautiful woman of thir
ty, who was tho leader of a score or j
more of woman boomers having their!
hand-quarters in Indian Territory, j
Xannetta had been a school-teacher !
and a newspaper writer, and miswd 1
by but one vote being State librarian
of ICentueky. At the head of her
Amaxon company of boomers she took
up a claim near Edmunds, ono of tho
best in the country. This claim was
contested by a railroad engineer, the
contest terminating in a shooting
match. Both wore slightly wounded,
but public opinion was in favor of tho
woman. A sqattcr jury placed her
in possession anil warned tho man to
leave the country. Catherine Labour
icr Dallas, a modern Lucrctia Borgia
in temper and known as Sorrel Kato
from her red hair and her custom of
riding a sorrel hor&e, is another fam
ous boomer. She shot a "tenderfoot"
for too much familiarity, and no 'man
dared molest tho claim of tho "red
headed terror from Texas." Protty
Pearl Younger, tho daring daughter
of notorious Hello Starr, is a beautiful
vision to bo met at the boomer-camps,
dressed in light corduroy trousers, with
a neglige shirt, open at the throat, a
white sombrero on her head, and a col
lection of pistols in her bolt. She
killed a man in defenso of her property
and tho rough boomers formed a pha
lanx about her, through which no oflt
cer dared brink. Miss Nellie Bruce lo
cated her claim, built it home, or, rath
er, dug one out in the side of a hill on
the site where her father's lie uso had
been burned by Indian scouts, and,
surrounded by a couple of dogs and a
llock of chickens, sho held her ground
alone against the enemy until tecent
ly, when she surrendered to tho mayor
of Oklahoma and became his wife.

A Cure For Dlptherla.
Should you or any of your family
bo attacked with dipthoria, do not bo
alarmed, it is easily and speedily cured
without a doctor. When it was raging
in England a few years ago I accom
panied Dr. Field on his rounds to wit
ness tho so-called Wonderful cures ho
performed while tho patients of others
were dropping on both sides. The
remedy is so rapid it must bo simple.
All ho took with him was powdered
sulphur and a quill and with these ho
cured every patient without exception.
Ho put a teaspoonfull of Hour of brim
stone in a wineglass of water, and
stirred with his linger instead of a
spoon, tho sulphur does not readily
amalgamate with water. When tho
sulphur was well mixed ho gavo it as a
gargle, and in ten minutes the patient
was out of danger. Brimstone kills
eyery species of fungus in man, beast
and plant in a few minutes. Instead
of spitting out the gurgle, ho recom
mends the swallowing of it. In ex
treme cases, in which he had been
called just in tho nick of lime, when
tho fungus was too nearly closed to
allow the gargling, ho blew tho sul
phur through a quill into tho throat;
and after tho fungus had shrunk to
allow of it, then tho gargling. He
never lost a patient from diphtheria.
If a patient cannot gargle take a live
coal, put it on a fchovol and sprinkle a
spoonful or two of Hour of brimstono
upon it; let the sulluror inhalo by
holding his head over it. Bolfast (lro

Burning out The Dovll.
Tho Chinese of Portland on last
Thursday closed their harvest festival,
which lasted sovoral weeks, tho princi
pal feature being tho "burning out"
of the devil from tho houscH of all who
can afford to pay lor it. Tho cere
mony consists of a screeching noiso
by a Chinese band, tho burning of
papers, numerous candles of various
colors and shapes and a lot of religious
kow-towing by tho participators. The
Oregoniun is a highly respected news
paper among tho Ohineso of Portland
and they porfonncd tho coremony of

A QUEER TRADE.
Frod Dottflas Is For Harrison Re
ciprocity with Germany American
Pork Abroad.
viiinoton, October 10, 1S0I.
Ennoit OuKiiox Scour:
"Representative Mills", said an
alliance man who strongly believes in
the free coinage of silver, "has, wheth
er intentionally or not I cannot say,
practically made tho question of
whether a free coinage bill shall be
passed by tho coming House of Rep
resentative!! an issue in tho speaker
ship campaign."
"How?" ho was asked.
"Why, by stating that ho had be
come convinced that nothing practical
in tho way of silver legislation could
bo accomplished by the next congress.
That statement I tako to mean that
Mr. Mijls has mado up his mind that
in the event of his being elected
Speaker of the House ho will so make
up tho membership of tho Houso
Coinage Committee that no freo coin-
ago bill can bo reported to the House.
This statement may gain Mr. Mills
some votes, but, mark my words, un
less ho repudiates it before tho demo
cratic caucus is hold he will certainly
bo defeated for tho speakership nomi
nation." Tho impression hero seems to bo
that tho result of the Ohio election
will determine the position of all tho
speakership candidates on tho freo
coinage question, tho belief being that
if Campbell is elected it will mean a
triumph for tree coinago and that all
of tho candidates will promise to assist
in having a free coinago bill passed by
tho House. On tho other hand should
Campbell bo defeated, freo coinago is
to be put aside by thorn all for tho
time being, on the ground that it can
wail. Mr. Mills, who has just re
turned from Ohio, where ho made
speeches for his parly, which is run
ning on a freo coinago platform, is
now proparing to go to Massachusetts
to speak for his party, which is there
running on an anti-free coinago plat
form. Verily politics is a queer trade.
Fred. Douglass, ex-minister to Hayti,
has given the politicians something to
talk about, It had been assumed
over since Douglass retired irom tno
diplomatic service under circumstances
which mado it fair to infer that ho did
so under compulsion, that ho was
against Harrison, and some peoplohad
gone so far as as to say that ho was to
lead tho negro opposition which was
to frighten 'the republican national
convention into dropping Harrison,
if ho did not voluntarily rotiro from
tho raco before tho convention met.
Now Douglass has, in the courso of a
lecturo on Hayti, taken occasion to
announce that ho is for Harrison's re
nominutiou, and in the muno lecturo he
hinted that it was in his power to
show tho Molo St. Nicholas afliair in a
light that would reflect no credit upon
Mr. Blaino. The politicians aro ask
ing each other what this means.
Although the committeo which
passed upon the credentials of tho
delegates to tho Methodist Ecumeni
cal Conference now in session hero did
not admit a single woman it was made
evident in a discussion of tho subjoct
"Woman's Work in the Church",
that tho almost unanimous sentiment
of that body is in favor of lotting
woman occupy whatever Hold in tho
church, even to tho pulpit itself, that
sho may prove herself capable of (ill
"-v i -
ing. As tho conference has no legis -
lativo functions, this sentiment will not

ell'oct tho present status of women in
tho Methodist church, although its
moral effect may become apparent in
this country later on.
Reciprocity is enjoying another big
boom, it being stated hero that an
agreement has been reached with the
government of (iormany whereby
American wheat is to be given free
entry Into that country in return for
our locolving (Jonnany's beet sugar
fruo of duty. Tho Migar already
comas in free, but under tho niolpro-
thu prwldonl is given authority to ro
store the duty whlah oxUted before
the puMttgo of that Hut Upon the pro
lu. u of any country which MM lo
enter into a reciprocity agreement ad
mitting some American product o:
product free of duty. It w- t
escape this danger that (lerni.iny h.i
nirn-ed to admit our wheat I'm-
i although the failure of her own gr.u;
! crop and the desire to make American
j wheat as cheap ns possible to the coii
I sumers of that country doubtle ul-
had great weight with the (ierma-i
othcials. However, the impnrtutP
thing is that it opens an iinmedi.il"
market for ono hundred million
bushels of American wheat, and
that wo have the wheat to sell.
The Italian government has not
resumed diplomatic relations with us.
hut it has had the good sens-e to see
that the restrictions which it placed
upon tho importation of American
pork are, in view of the fact, that ever
carcass now bears the guarantee of
this government as to its purity, en
tirely needless, and it has decided to
remove them. Score another point
for "Uncle Jerry" Uusk and his meat
inspection law.
