unfortunately, does not generally raise
the largest family, but tbe reverse of
that proposition is true, and those who
have the least worldly goods are most
richly endowed with pledgesof affection,
as though a bounteous, but ill judicious
nature would counterbalance the nig
gardliness of fortune by giving more
generously of all she had to give. Thus,
in cbangiug school' books, the heaviest
tax is thrown upon the poorest persons.
The interests of the parents, of the
children, and, therefore, of the state, all
demand that for the present, at least, the
school books be left as they are. This is
the sentiment of the uewspapers of the
state, therefore as we have said, it is
fair to presume it is the sentiment of the
readers of those papers, for, alter all,
the press is but the mirror that reflfots
the opinions aud sentiments of the
public. We have no doubt that when
the superintendents vote on the question
that vote will be practically unanimous
iD favor of retaining the present system.
This expresses the concensus of
opinion so far as The Hun is able to
gather it from its oomplete list of state
exchanges, of teaohers, editors and
educated business men generally. Aud
it is certainly the opinion of the very
large number of parents In straitened
oiroumstances with large families, who
should, after all, have the first and most
convincing voice.
Geo. W. Jenkins, editor of the Santa

immediate'Vi It is, in my opinion, the
best otiugh medicine in the market."
If this remedy is freely given as soon as
the oroupy oongh appears it will prevent
the attack. It is also an ideal remedy
for whooping o nigh. There is no
danger in giving it to children, as it

Society.
A cowboy, fresh from the herd, went
into a Cheyenne chophouse recently, says
the Detroit Sun. The tables were all
filled with the exception of one, at whioh
the terror of the plains seated himself.
As he pulled off his hnt and untied the
red bandanna haudkorchief from his
throat, he looked disdainfully around.
The nimble waiter brushed an imagin
ary bread crumb from the cloth, whisked
a bill of fare from the castor, aud placed
it before the festive aud untamed youth.
"Take it away," he snarled. "I can't
eat that. I want rattlesnakes on toast."
"liattlesiiakea on toast!" yelled the
waiter.
"Rattlesnakes on toast I" responded
the cook.
There was a Blight flutter among the
gueets at the strange order, and the cow
boy was scanned by many ourious eyes.
He assumed a nonchalant air and picked
his teeth with the prong of his fork.
The oook deftly removed the skill from
a pickerel, and cutting a strip the proper
shape placed it on a spider.
I The waiter who had taken the order
came tripping baok to the bold buccaneer
of the pampas.
"Will yon have your snake well done
or rare?"
"Rare, and oodles of milk and gravy
on it."
"Gimme that snake rare milk gravy
on the side," was hallooed to the cook.
The lariat-wrestler began to grow nerv
ous. The devil-may-care expression
had left his eyes, and a soft, subdued,
melancholy Bhade had taken its place.
He llgeled in hia ohair and seemed to be
nerving himself for an ordeal.

CHANCK OF MANAGEMENT.
To the Kditoh:

a committee of I'nrthind business men,
composed if Van B. DeLnslimutt, Gen

the city. The new management regrets
that tbe fair has not received the cordial
support of the prefs, and eo far as that
ia caused by any want of oonrtesy on
the irnrt of the management that has re
tired, it will be rectified. The courtesies
hitherto offered the editors only will be
extended to their families. We propose
to make the amends honorable, and take
this first opportunity to invite you to
come and take in onmunw from cellar to
garret, free of charge. Ynu will find it a
good one. Make yourselves at home
while here, and when you do oome bring
your wives and your babies and your
wives' babies, and help us and our wives
and our wives' biibies to swell the daily
throng.
The admission to the fair is 25 cents,
and this gives free range to visitors ex
cept into the specinl shows of the mid
way, nil of which chnrge but 10 oents
each, except the $100,001) cyolorama of
the battle of Missionary Ridge, which is
50 cents. These special shows are all
well worth the price oharged, and among
them are some of the heBt attractions of
the midway plaisanoe of the world's fair.
The difficulty of the old management
with the labor unions has been settled,
and tbe superb Portland Military Hand
is now delighting visitors with its splen
did music The band concert alone is
worth the price of admission.
Hpeoial excursions will be run from all
the cities along the railroad lines, ample
notice of whioh will be given.

Ai'Tiiii Cattle Thibvbh. A Pendleton
dispatch to the Oregonian says: "Sheriff
ll'Miser has rounded up what ho thinks
is the ringleader of a gang of cattle
thieves, and haH two others in oustody.
Honscr went lint Saturday to Camas
prairie and met other oflicers there. For
many mouths a careful watch has been
kept and clews noted iu each oase of
cattle stealing. Those have bean numer
ous, but the leader was not detected.
One week ago 11 head of cattle, belong
ing to MoOulloch & Hloau, were missed.
They bad been driven off in a bunoh at
night and taken to the mountains to be
driven to Grant ominty or seoreted and
Bold later. After a prolougod searcbi
hasty word oame to the sheriff and he
went to Camns to assist. F ar bnok in the
mountains the oabin and ranch of Bill
Walker was discovered, and evidence
was found which satisfied tho officers
that Walker was running a regular
robbers' roost. He has lived there 25
years. District attorney after district
attorney bus attempted to fasten guilt
upon him and haa f.iiled. A big gang
has kept up operations and hundreds of
cattle have been Btnlen. During this
time it im saiil that Walker has beeu a
captain for them ami furnished means
for oouceiilment of the crimiuals. But
this time success rewards the officers.
The deputy district attorney lias strong
evidence aud thinks cattle thieving in
that loonlity will now bo broken up.
Lee French and Guy French, sous of a
prominent rancher, Mtookmau J. H
French, of Butter creek, were arrested
and are In jail here, oharged with par
ticipating in stealing tho 11 bead of
cattle. Other arrests will follow and the
next term of court will witness a
vigorous effort to stamp out this
thievery. Walker's place was so sitUBted
as to require nerve ou the part of the
oflicers in going to make the arrest. It
is a natural fortress, and Oould bo held
by six men against au army." The
above was verified iu regard to the
arrest of the parties by Jas. Hoss w ho

Heatness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of tbe mucous lining of tbe
Eustachian tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfeot hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation enn be taken ont and
this tube be restored to its normal con
dition, bearing w 11 he destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are oaused by

Death by Elwtrlclty,
The Disrest gives an account of some
experiments on the effect of alternat
ing electric currents on animal organ
isms, described in a paper read before
a recent medical congress at Rome, It
aly, and which corroborate the views
of D'Asonval, referred to recently. The
current used was an alternating one,
and it was found that animals sub
jected to from fifteen hundred to two
thousand volts were not easily killed,
and that death resulted mostly from
asphyxia caused by the sudden stop
page of respiration. Frequently breath
ing started again spontaneously, and
the animal recovered completely. In
no case was there any physiological
change noted, though in a few there
were mechanical lesions, in themselves
cause for death. This further confirm
ation of D'Arsonval's formula. "Aman
shocked by electricity should be treat
ed as if drowned," renders it still more
important that the electrician should
make himself acquainted with the prop
er means of resuscitation from the ef
fects of electric shock.
A Momentous Proceeding.
In Sir. Montague's "Tales of a
Nomad" he says that in tho old days
the Boer seldom used his pen, but
when he did there was a regular com
motion in the house. "Hush, lie quiet
all of you. Drive out the ducks and
the geese, and the pigs and the fowls.
Father is going to write his name."
And then the old gentleman, with el
bows squared on the table, would
seize the pen with a flourish, and put
ting on a determined look, as if he
were going to tackle an adversary,
would bend down his head until it
nearly touched his left arm, write his
name with many a splutter, and then,
throwing down the pen and pushing
the chair, would look round with an
air of mingled pride and resignation
and say: "I have done it.

A Retrograding- State.
The population of Vermont was
3M,.r)51 in 1870, 2811 in 1880, and 332,
422 in 1800. In other words, the state
has been practically stationary for
twenty years, and during the decade
preceding 1800 the gain was only 130
souls. As Hurlingtou, Rutland, ISarre
and some other large towns had sev
eral thousand more inhabitants in
ISO! than in 1880, the smaller townR and
the rural communities, of course, lost
ground, and the extent of the loss is
illustrated in such facts as that during
this period the number of farms shrank

FOR INVENTIONS.
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the government la
that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because
of the incompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their
patents. Too' much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reli.
able solicitors to procure patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not
entirely, upon the care and skill of the attorney.
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys,
and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, we have re
tained counsel expert iu patent practice, and therefore are prepared to
Obtain Patents in the United States and all Foreign Countries, Conduct In.
terferences, Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases,
Register Trade-Marks and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to
Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, Etc., Etc.
If vou have an invention on hand
gether with a brief description of the important features, and you will be at once
advised as to the best course to pursue. Models are seldom necessary. If
others are infringing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by
others, submit the matter to us lor a
matter.
