How They Keep Their Hand in by Ail"
vi!n Women to Go Jnrn tlie
Ponlrry Basinet.
" ho can tell how long ago it vras
that the agricultural, political and
religious press began to advise worn- j
en to go into the poultry business?;
This advice conies in bunclic. like
asparagus. For a long Jiuic there
will be none in the market, and then
suddenly some editor will bre.tk out
in raphsodies over- a lone widov? w1iq
has kept seven hens through a hard
winter on a pint of corn, sold SS15
worth of eggs, paid off a mortgage on
her little cottage, and sent her eldest
through college. This story will have
the run of the press for a season, and
be printed from Dan to Beersheba,
and from Maine to California. Then
some other venerable liar, nistiug
away in an off political year, will reel
off one or two articles about keeping
hens, and the enormous proGt. We do
not deny that money can be made out
of poultry, but it requires the strong
est mental balance, and the most vig
orous constitution to stand it, and
it is a business peculiarly unfitted
for women. "Who has not seen a
woman trying to chase a hen out of
the flower-bed or garden, aud who
can deny that all womanly grace.
all loveliness and all sweetness of
temper disappears in the struggle,
and how terrible ara the passions
aroused iu the war of words when
the poultry breaks into the sanctity
of tho neighbor's yard, and the neigh
bor comes to the back fence to hurl
forth his indignation iu gusts of rug
ged eloquence. Strong men have
grown gray in an instant on seeiug a
thoroughbred hon come Hying over
the fence followed by a string of
broken bricks and old tomaio cans
and profanity longer than her pedi
gree, and realizing tho terrible ordeal
to be gone through with when the
enraged neighbor got his second
wind and came over the fence him
self. Oh, no! the poultry busiiiPss is
no place for woman. Still about once
in three months the press breaks out
in a chorus of praise of this nefarious
and soul-dest roving traflie.
TIIP. NEW WEST IN THE INDPSTRIAL
EXPOSITION.
The older states of the Union, aud
particularly such states as Pennsyl
vania and New York, are not making
much of a figure at the world's fair
in New Orleans. In fact, from Dela
ware north to Mtine, these states
have not taken any great interest in
the exposition. The great state of
New York makes a poor show, there
being little to illustrate the vast re
sources of that wealthy and populous
state. The interest of the exposition
has turned largely on the contribu
tions of the western states, Mexico,
Central and South America. The
sectional feeling has not quite died
out. New Orleans is a long way off.
It has a commercial importance, but
very little manufacturing prominence.
Beyond cotton and sugar itcocld not
contribute anything of importance
to the exposition. The northern
states might Lave done vastly more
than they have for this exposition.
Just now the most important fact is
that the new western states have
kept the exposition from becoming a
failure. California, Colorado, Ore
gon, the territories, and all the West
ern states have laid down at the
exposition the choicest specimens of
natural resourcas and developed
wealth. They have saved the exposi
tion and more. Those states have
less sectional fceliug thau either the
extreme southern or extreme north
ern states. It may be premature to
say that a sectional feeling has had a
controlling influence in keeping back
exhibits from such states as New
York and Pennsylvania. Yet one
connot quite ignore the fact that
these states, by the indifference
shown, assert in a negative sort of a
way that this is not their affair that
it is a southern demonstration which
really does not much concern them.
New lork, for instance, ought to
have led off in the number and va
riety of the articles exhibited. Penn
sylvania ought to have gone quite
beyond ner nuge lumps of coal and
specimens of steel.
A Governorship for a Vote.
On joint ballot the Illinois legisla
ture is a tie, and one of tho Demo
crats is E. M. Haines, father of J. C.
Haines, Esck, of Seattle, the law part
ner of Hon H. G. Struve, and who is
a trafficking politician at the "inde
pendent" sort, whose vote is very
precious to the Democratic party.
Morrison is the Democratic candidate
for senator, aud Haines ts refusiug to
vote for hira. Now comes au moment
that possesses interest for "Washing
ton territory-. A SpringCeld dispatch
says: "The other day Morrison met
Haines and said to him: 'Yon have
a son in "Washington territory. He
ought to be its governor. I cau fix
that for you if I am elected.' 'That
will not do,' replied Hniuca. 'Carter
Harrison made that promise a
month ago.' " It will be well for our
Democratic brethren in Washington
territory who want the office of gov
ernor (and their name is legion) to
take notice that they are one and all
likely to be traded out of it by eastern
politicians. Observing this may
breat tne torce or tneir coming dis
appointment.

COWBOYS' FRFAK.
When the N. P. overlund train.
which arrived here yesterday, reached
Little Missouri, the other side of
Helena, on Friday, it was stopped by
cowboys, who were bent on haviujr
some fnn as thev called it. The cow
boys were on a spree, and after flag
ging the train took possession of it
with drawn pistols. They compelled
the passengers, including ladies, lo
dance aud stand on their heads,
which command was speedily com
plied with to the bestot the individ
ual ability of the passengers. The
conductor in chargo of the train,
hovever, refused to mar his dignity
by attempting to dance when he
didn't know how, and the cowboys
shot all arouud his feet to makehi"m
try. But he was defiant and refused,
taking desperate chances as to the
consequence. One or two balls were
sent through his feet, badly wound
ing them. The train and depot were
riddled with bullets, but no other
damage was done other than to the
conductor. No attempt was made to
rob the passengers. Bobbery was
not the purpose of the attack appar
ently. The cowboys, after their little
diversion, allowed the train to pro
ceed. Thty number over a hundred,
and it would be a hard matter to at
tempt to arrest any of them. It
would be extremely hazardous for
any officer with a fee in sight to un
dertake to servo a warrant. The
cowboys are starling out on the road
up and want to have a good time to
commence with. Standard, .?.
Vour Cod Wife, Sir.
The best treasure a mau can pos
sess is a good wife. He who has
such a treasure ought to do his very
beot to keep her in perfect health.
Invalid ladies are sometimes irreat
sufferers. Worry and overwork per
form marvels of mischief for most
American women. Brown's Iron
Bitters works wonders of renovation
for the pale, the languid, and the de
bilitated. Mrs. Lulu Weston. 191
Market street, Indianapolis, says,
"I used Brown's Tron Bitters for gen
eral debility and weakness, and am
entirely cured.''
There is now en route to this
sound, a vessel which will load with
spars, square timber and lumber for
Norway. This will be the first cargo
ever shipped to that country from
this region. It must appear from
this that the Norwegian forests, with
timber similar to our own, and for
which she was famous even in tho
works of Milton, are beiug stripped
and denuded, and thus a new market
has been opened for our bountiful
supply here. -2'acoma ledger.
