A Irrj Sad Var.
We are sorry to see so many of
the humorous papers find any fun
in the incident of the girl at Keo
kuk who was hugged to death by
her lover. lie had proposed to
tier, in her fathers parlor, and she
had accepted him, and in a mo
ment of ecstacy he hugged her to
his breast, and she died at once.
The young man was horror-strick
en, and called her parents, it is
supposed that she died of heart
disease. The case was very sad
indeed, and papers should not
make fun of occurrences that
bring so much sadness. However,
while this case is fresh in the
minds of old and young, vi will
embrace the opportunity, and em
brace it gently, for fear we will
kill it, to again impress upon
young people what we have o of
ten advised, and that is to be un
usually careful about i
lftm Tli) II u Girl.
Many a young man hugs a girl al
most to death,, and he never knows
how near he comes to being a mur
derer. Girls nowaday.- are not
what they used to be when yon
and I were young, Maggie. They
cannot stand as much grief now as
girls did twenty years ago. Some
how, they don't seem to be put up
for hugging. Tf a man puts his
arm around a seventeen 3'ear old
girl of tlu- present day, and sort of
closes in on the belt, he expects to
hear something break. Many hu
mane men let go before they have
jot a srirl half hugged, .because the
girl looks so frail that he is alraid
he will break her in two. Of
course there are exceptions to the
frail girls, but the majority are too
much like a bundle of asparagus.
Some of the girls of the present
day are robust, and seem to be of
fered if a person lets up on the
hugging on their account, and it is
said they
flux ISnrk illi 11 lor
Which reminds a man of the days j
of long ago, but they are few and
far between. Tco much care can
not be exercised in putting arms
around the young girls of to-day,
and we would wish to impress this
fact upon the minds of the young
men who are just coming upon
the stage of action. Of course,
men along in years do not need
advice. The boys are apt to put
more force into the right arm than
they are aware of, in such cases, a
hundred per cent, more than they
would be apt to do in sawing
wood, or carrying up a scuttle of
coal. They should bear in mind
that girls are too valuable to be
used for developing the muscles,
as you would a gymnasium. You
don't have to squeeze a girl till
her liver is forced from its normal
position, and she chokes up and
catches her breath, to show her
that 3'ou love her.
A Gentle Squeeze
Of the hand, the stealing of the
arm around her waist when she is
not looking, and the least pres
sure upon her belt, is all that the
law requires. She can tell by
your face whether you love her,
as 3011 sit there in the twilight
looking into the guiding star eyes,
as "well as though you grabbed her
as you would a sack of wheat and
hung on like a dog to a root.
Don 't make a barrel hoop of your
self, and try to break every stave
in the girl you think you love, and
you win not nave cause ior me
rrowhe poor young man in
Iowa has, who meant no harm, but
lacked a governor to equalize his
power. Hug easy till you find
that the patient will stand more,
and then you can
Apply tlie Proper Sciuoziirr.
Sometimes we think there ought
to be a professorship in our female
schools for testing the capacity of
scholars for the trying ordeals
which they must pass through. If
there was such a professorship,
and girls were given a ticket or
certificate showing just how much
hugging would be good for them,
it might save tunny valuable lives,
but wo don't know of many who
could 1k11 such a professorship
with credit. Then if the girls were
given certificates, tliev might alter
the figures, and get more hugging
than was good for their health.
The best way is for young men to
use good judgment, and then all
will be well. As we said before,
it pains us to ?c the piipers make
frivolouf. items alwut such a sad
case.
Did Dr. Whitman SaTe Orejjon?
J 11 my second article in anawvr to
Mrs. Victors labored article to prove
that Dc Whilinan did not, and that
lie had 110 instrumentality in raising
the emigration company of 18 ID; that
the company was a month on its
way before he left Ids old home, I
quoted the statements of three candid
witnesses, while L have many more
equally ready to aflirtn to his noble
and unselfish efforts to pilot, aid and
assist them 'on the whole route.
Before we direct our attention to
Hon. Jesse Applegatea statements as
furnished by M rs. Victor, it is proper
to refer to what she says about l)r.
W.'s going to Washington. She says:
Tltcre to no proof anywhere that lie
went to Washington, though it is proba
ble enough, a-, all Americans having
been in Ore 41m were welcomed by the
government as a means of iijfoiniHtion.
Can airy one inform us why such a
statement, implying a denial of a ios-
itive fact ir made ? And 111 the same
short sentence adding, though it is
probable enough, as all Americans
having been in Oregon were welcomed
by the government a a means of in
formation." Jf this does not show adesuaralc ef
fort to pervert the truth, pray tell us
what doas. We will place with this
statement one from Hon. A. L. Lore
joy, who was Dr. Whitmans traveling
companion, and is still living. He
says in his letter to me, and the same
to'llcv. (i. H. Atkinson, D.D., after
giving his account of their journey to
Dents fort . .
The doctor leniained over night at the

I lere e parted. The doctor proceeded
to Washington. 1 remained at Dents
fort until .spiiug. and joined Hie doctor
the following. I u!., near fort Laramie,
on his way to Oregon, in companj with
a tram or emigrants, lie orteii express
ed himself to me alwmt the remainder of
his iournev and Hie luaunei in which le
was received at "W shiugtou. and by Jhe
Doaid of Foreien Missions at Dostou.
lie had several interviews with Presi
dent Taj lor, Sceretar Webster, and a
good many mcmlKTs of congress. Con
giess being in Mission at that time. He
urged the immediate rcrimiiatiou of the
treaty with Great Dritain relative to this
country, and begged them to evtend the
laws of the United Mates over Oregon,
and asked for liberal inducements to
emigrants to come to this coast. He was
ver cordially and uimlrv received by
thepresident and members of congress,
and without doubt the doctors interviews
resulted greatly to the benefit of Ore
gon and to this coast. Dathis reccittion
at the Board of Foreign missions was
not so coKlial. 1 he hoard was inclined
to censure him for leaving his post.
The doctor came to the frontier settle
ments urging the citizens to emigrate to
the Pacific, lie left Independence,
Missouri, in the month of May, 1M::,
with an emigrant train of one thousand
souls, for Oregon. With his cnergv and
know ledge ol the country 1m rendered
them great assistance in fording the
many dangerous and rapid streams they
had "to cross, and in hnding a wagon
road through manj of the narrow rug
ged passes in the mountains. He arriv
ed at Waiilatpu about one year from the
time he left to find hi.s home sadly
dilapidated and his flouring mill burned
to the ground. The Indians were very
hostile to the doctor for leaving them,
and without doubt, during his absence,
the seeds of that assassination was sown,
(by those haughty Cajuse.s) which re
sulted in his death, Mrs. Whitman, and
main others, although it did not take
place until some four years after. 1 re

If Mrs. Victor who claims to be. so
glad Mr. Clarke hail furnished me an
occasion for pointing out the truth Jo
Those who think, as 1 do. that a love of
truth is above a devoton to an idea,
whether it is icligious or political."' If
she had looked on page :t!iJ of Gray's
History she would have saved herself
j the unpleasant position of an ignorant
attempt to laisiry a historic- laet, tnat nas
been, ami can yet De pioveii by living
witnesses. In the net two lines she
sav.s:
'But we are told in the Missionary
Herald, September, 1843, the follow
ing:" We will not repeat the Mission
ary Heralds statement as quoted by
Mrs. Victor, because we have quoted
the statements of Hon. John Hobson
and of Hon. P. H. Burnett to provo
Mrs. Victor and the Missionary Her
ald both m error; and we arc inclined
to the opinion that Mrs. Victor placed
before her renders the first contra
dictory and blind excuse for a false
hood in the concluding Missionary
quotation, a part of which she puts in
capitals; and now she has made and
quoted a false statemont to repeat the
one previously made against the truth
of W. H. Grays History. She Bays:
Now it wilt be observed that in this
declaration of the motive of Doctor
Whitman's visit, it is asserted that an
emigration had already begun; that
Doctor Whitman was not certain of tak
ing back with him any "christian fami
lies," and that he did not set out on his
return until June. These assertions, of
course, it must be allowed, upset Mr.
(.ray m statement concerning tne instru
lneiitalih of Doctor Whitman in raising
the emigrating company of 183. That
emigration was a month on its way,
with wagons and stock, before he left
his old home to return to Waiilatpu.
The above quotation from Mrs.
Victor allows us to show how careless
she is in quoting and attributing to
one person what is credited" and quot
ed from another. W. H. Gray says,
on the 289th page of his History or
Oregon, "1 find an article in the Pa
cific of November Dth, from Mr.
Spalding, which gives us the result:
On reaching the settlements, Dr.
Whitman found that many of the
now old Oregonians, naming Waldo,
jApplegate, Houston, Kreiger, and
others, who had made calculations to
oome to Oregon, had abandoned the
idea because of representations from
Washington that every attempt 1
take wagons ami ox teams through
the ltockv and Blue mountains to the
Columbia had failed. Dr. Whitman
saw at onca what the stopping of
wagons at fort Hall ever' year meant.
The representations purported to come
from Secretary Webster, but wore
from Governor" Simpson, who magni
fied the statements of his chief trader
Grant, at fort Hall, declared the
Americans must be going mad, from
their repeated fruitless attempts to
take wagons and teams through the
impassable regions to the Columbia.
Mrs. Victor says:
Hon. Jesse Applegate, whom Mr. Gray
mentions ns one of those who had auaii-
doned the idea of coming to Oregon be
cause of the representations from v asli
ington that every attempt to take wagons
and ox-teams through the Hocky and
Dlue mountains, to the Columbia had
failed," but who was told by Dr. Whit
man 'that his only object in crossing
the mountains in the dead of winter, at
the risk of his life, ami through un
told sufferings, was to take back an
American emigration that summer
through the mountains to the Columbia,
with their wapons and teams." denies
the truth of these assertions, and sodo
others of the persons named by Mr.
Gray.
Suppose we place John Hobsons
name in place of Jesse Applegate, or
any other name, will it change the fact
of the misrepresentations on the part
of the servants of the Hudson Day
compnivy?
In answer to Honorable .Jesse Ap
History with marginal notes. !
Let U3 examine tint quibble: " Firat,
Mrs. Victor says, "Mr. Applegate at
tempted to show the true relations of
Dr. Whitman to the emigration of
184:. without openly, assailing Mr.
Gra.vs statements, but he was too care
ful in his method," ns alove.
To rebut the whole matter, before
we quote Mr. Applegate himself, we
will introduce the testimony of a
young man that was with the Doctor
through the whole trip, and has given
us his distinct statement in a letter
already published as follows, in Thk
Weekly Astokian, December 17,
1880:
Mr. W. H. Graj, while in Lewiston
last August, met Mr. P. D. Whitman
who was requested to forward his recol
lections of meeting and comiug to Ore
gon with his uncle. Dr. Marcus Whit
man. He requested him particularly to
be careful and make no statement which
he was not nosltivc he could give his
oath to. if requested to do o. Following
is his replv. Mr. Gray says there are I
other living witnes-ses. whose testimony 1
will be written and given under oath in I
due time: '

to he encounter
way were so uutgnitied as to make us
suppose the journey to Oregon al
most impossible. For instance, the
two crossings of Snake river, and the
crossing of the Columbia and other
small streams, were represented as
being attended with great danger; also
that no company heretofore attempt
ed the passage of theso streams but
with the loss of men from the vio
lence and rapidity of the currents, as
also that they had nercr succeeded in
getting more than fifteen or twenty
head of cattle into the YVillamet val
ley. "In addition to the above it was as
serted that threelor four tribes of In
dians in the middle regions had com
bined for the purpose of preventing
our passage through their country,
fu case we escaped destruction at the
hands of the savages, that a more
fearful enemy, famine, would attend
our march, as the distance was so
great that winter would overtako us
before making the Cascade mountains.
On the other hand, as an inducement
to pursue the California route, we
were informed of the shortness of the
route when compared with that to
Oregon."
I have quoted the statements of
these two witnesses to show the ig
norance of Sirs. Victor relative to the
subject upon which she quotes Hon.
Jesse Applegate, for I do not believe
that intelligent and generous man has
written what Mrs. Victor claims he
has, and quotes as comiug from him;
and until she can provo that Hobson,
Burnett, Baker and Gen. Palmer have
falsely represented Dr. Whitman, and
the maliciously false representations
of the servants of the Hudson Bay
company arc true, I will not believo
ihe has truly represented his state
ments. If she has, we must conclude
that his memory of that journey is
gone, and wo must forgive him,
while we can honor him for a noble
and truthful statement made of Dr.
Whitman in his most interesting de
scription of " A Day with the Cow
Column of 1843;" and as Mrs. Victor
referred to that articlo and attempted
an excuse for Mr. Applegate in writ
ing it, by saying:
Mr. Applegate, in his article A Day
with the Cow Column."' attempted to
show the true relation of Dr. Whitman

(;rntefiil for her recovery, on her return
to Europe in Htc she introduced the
remedy in Spain, where it was known
under various names, until iuiua'ii:
called it Cinchona, in honor of the lady
who had brought them that which was
more precious than the gold of the Ineas.
To tins day. after a lape of two hun
dred and fifty years, cieuce has given

the stomach. It attacks excessive love
of liquor as it does a fever, and destroys
loth alike. The iowcrful tonic virtue
of the Cinchona is preserved in the
Peruvian Hitters, which are as effective
against malarial fever to-day as they
were in the dav.s of the old Spanish

A cough, cold or sore throat should be

disorder the stomach like cough syrups

flamed parts, allaying irritation, give
relief in asthma, bronchitis, coughs,
catarrh, and the throat troubles which
singers and public speakers are subject
to. For thirty years Brown's bronchial
troches have been recommended by
physicians, and always give jierfect
satisfaction. Having iieen tested by
wide and constant use for nearly an en
