Crater mountain Is one of th
Umatilla Indians' great spook depots
from ancient tiiuei. Buck that im
now wklte with the hoary frosts o
many winters recollect to hanging In
tree tightly strapped to their our.
Ing boards while their mothers
roamed the forest in search ol game
for the lords of creation or wood fir
the tepee, aud from Infancy love to
relate how the Great Spirit spoke to
them with the awful voice of terrlflc
thunder in the bowels of the earth.
Many are the stories and legends of
Indian lore told of Crater mountain.
One of the favorite ones is told of a
great war Ix-tween the Shoshone
ami Uinatillas. When the Uinatilhis
had conquered their fo they pro
ceeded to slaughter old and young,
regardless of . sex. One beautiful
Shoshone maiden, seeing that death
was Inevitable from her pursuing
foes, plunged headlong into the
burning crater, and Instantly the
volcanic eruption ceased, much to
the consternation of her pursuers,
who, mi the following day found on
looking" down the chasm of inky
larkneBS a resplendent light with
the. form of the Shoshone maiden In
the midst of tho apparition. They
told it to their dusky warriors, and
to this day Crater mountain Is looked
iip-m with a reverence from an In
dian point of view that almost passes
the bounds ol credulity. Many other
stories are extant of this volcanic
wonder. However, sufficient Is in
light to make tho explorer pause and
reflect on the mighty Hwer of nature
aud the punlty of mankind when
weighed In the scales of power. The
following, says the Raker City Dem
ocrat, is from the dairy of Hon. J.
A. Wright, who is a careful scientist,
ever on the alert for something new
and alwavs ready to look into the
deep mysteries of nature :
Crater mountain Is located some
eleven miles from the camp of Cor
nucoplu, on t ho south side of the range
whoso peaks are tlpSHl with eternal
snow. Many cnasms ana nssnres
have In the misty past cleft the
mountains and left them in the most
fantastic hhaes. Vegetation ceases
to grow after a certain height Is
reached and closo under thelstsnof
one of the great peaks Is the famous
extlncO'olennf). Ashes - and 'niva
are found lu great profusion, .and
In such indescribable masses that
It makes the ascent otio or

Into the blank, fathomless abyss su-
plies tho most morbid minds with all
tho sensationalism necessary for a
lifetime. A favorite amusement was
to throw ris-ks down and listen to
the sounds as they struck on the pro
jecting sides of the dark chimney
until the sounds died away leaving
nothing but for the explorer to guess
it had reached the bottom. Many
have been the stories calculated of
the wonderful cavern that extended
from the sides of the great chimney
A stout cable was provided and I
basket swung from a pulley. The
Hon. Joseph with camera and note
book was carefully lowered some 378
feet when he noticed an apperature
in the sldo of the chimney, and by
signals agreed upon a halt waa called
in his downward career, and lie
crawled through a cleft in the great
Chimney, and the work of exploration
beiriin. The first sight that met his
astonished gaze was a most stupendu
ous 'chamber from whose mighty
dome hung stalactites of great beauty,
which was enhanced by the light of
the candle, and fairly struck terror to
his heart, as the flickering candle
seemed to possess tho power of some
unseen hand that made millions of
the brilliant stalactites dance in re
splendent beauty. A great snowy
owl blinked his two balls of fire at
the aitonlshed Joseph, and with such
apersl-tcncy he thought surely this
Is the "witches' cauldron" and ex
pecteri to find perched on some point
of rock one of the Imps from the un
fathomable hereafter. However,
nothing of the kind came in view
and the explorer grosxI his way to
the far end of tho chamber, where he
thought he heard sounds of falling
water, nor was l.e mistaken, for,
squeezing himself through an open
in he found himself in another
chamber of great leauty with
stream of hot sulphur water running
intn ih earth or rocks. The Incrus
tation from the sulphur wster had
transformed the cavern Into a coral
like sulwtance and left it In such fan
if ahaiM. He found in the
water some lively little lizards and
some frogs that change color on the
slightest provocation, two large rats,
who eyed the explorer with a eurios-
itr that seemed to bode no gootl ana
he longed for'hls little gun."

Hipanm Imw slow people are to
accent that which Is for their gootl,
and how easily persuaded Into aotne
upon "e,8W,D).n ,henu)hy a gbb-tongnl
agent. A neighborhood not a thous
and miles from this office was recent
ly visited by a representative of a
creamery supply house of Chicago.
The result Is that the farmers of the
said neighborhood are having a big
creamery plant put up where It is
oof Dttded and rr mill be. I

creamery wouM t a, "0xJ send,"
and where the business people of ths
town am aoxlous to have a creamery
organized and are willing to help get
it started, the farmer shake their
heads fearing that th business men
of th village will take advantage of
them. The whole matter haa bea
presented to them In the tru light,
showing them what other neighbor
hoods under similar condition are
doing, yet they have doubts on the
subject and fear to glv the local
bank a note for $2,000, with every
guarantee that all shall be satisfac
tory. But the gllb-tongued agent
quickly secured through the assist
ance of "influential farmers" lu the
neighborhood note for $1,700. He
will furnish them a plant worth not
over S2,40O, ;and walks on with a
couple of thousand dollars io his
pocket while the "Influential" farm
ers have in their pockets a few hun
dred dollars of worthless stock.

U.MOLN'S MEMORY.
Abraham Lincoln had a great
memory. A writer In the Chicago
Herald gives an Incident lu point.
When he was comparatively a young
man and a candidate for the Illinois
legislature, he took dinner with a
Sangamon county farmer, and after
the meal they two stood at the barn
yard gate, talking and whittling.
Lincoln's knife needed sharpening,
and the Yankee In him prompted
him to sharpen it. He walked to a
tool box, took from it a whetstone
and came back to the great gatet
where he stood again and began
sharpening his knife. One post of
the gate was. very high. A man
came along the road in a wagon,
going in the direction Lincoln
wanted to travel, and he bade his
host good-bye and clambered Into
the .vehicle intent, no doubt, oo
gdttlng another voto.
Years afterward, when he was
preaident, a soldier came to call upou
him at the White House, aud at the
first sight the gaunt chief executive
said: "Yes, I remen l.r you. ou
used to II vo on the Danville, road.
I took dinner with you olio time
when I was running for the legisla
ture. Recollect wo stood together
out at the baru-yard gale and I
sharpened my knife?"
"Ya-as," drawled tho farmer-sol-
oMcr, "and wherever did you put
tu it whetstone? We 'lowed mebby
you bad took it along with you."
"No," said Lincoln, "no, 1 put it
ou top or tne gate post ine nigu
one."
"Well!" exclaimed tho visitor,
"mebby you did. Nobody else could
have out It there, and none of us
ever thought to look there for It."
He went on home, and when he
got there one of the first things he
did was to climb up on the gate and
look for the whetstone. It was
there, right where it had lain for 13
years. The honest fellow, adoring
his chief, wrote a letter before his
furlough expired, telling the presi
dent the whetstone was found and
never would be lost again.
Very reassuring are the statistics
Just issued by the war department
at Berlin, giving an account or we
number of shell thrown Into the
French fortresses and cities which
had the misfortune to undergo
bombardment In the war of 1879.
Paris, which succumbed to famine,
not to bombardment, received 1 10,.
000; Uelfort, 112,000, while Strans-
burg absorbed no less than 200,000
before it was finally driven by star
vation to surrender. From this it
would sppear that we have little to
fear from the bombardment of the
cities and towns along our coast, no
matter whether they are fortified or
not. It looks as If a cruiser might
fire away every projectile In her
magazine without doing any serious
Injury. Moreover, 100 rounds per
gun Is a large allowance, and the
heavy cannon with wh'ch most
cruisers are equipped nowadays
could not probably fire half that
number before being placed hors de
combat.

The description of Secretary Car
lisle's visit to the officers of th Sugar
trust on Wall street, as given by the
New York Times, forms very
interesting reading In view of
events that transpired subsequently, i
MLARCH1.NU THE VtlLTS.
. Oov. Pennoyer, on two occasions,
mdi use of peculiarities on which to
ride Into uHL. He tried the d-xire
agalo, but failed. v Naw ha has an
other fad. It Is to search the bank
vaults to And how much money they
contain that has Iain there for seven
years. He supposes that a depos
itor Is dead who has left his money
untouched for that length of time.
The governor has Instructed District
Attorney Hume, of th 4th district,
to demand answers from the bank
officials to a set of Interrogatories
served upon them, with a view to
discover escheat funds belonging to
the state. He is confident that the
state will secure quite a large sum
through, this action. Spcsking of
the matter the governor says :
"The instructions given by me to
the prosecuting attorney to tile a bill
of discovery requiring bank officers
to answer certain Interrogatories, I
was compelled by law to give, and
no trifling will be allowed in regard
to the matter. If the courts Issue
definite orders anil bank officers dis
regard them, they must he punished
for contempt of court, aud if there U
no law sufficient to compel the an
swer, I will ask the next legislature
to pass one. If, however, the courts
trifle with the law by not stipulating
a definite and limited time In which
banks must answer, I will ask the
next legislature to remove the recal
citrant Judges from office. The law
must be enforced. Banks may run
the federal government, but I do not
propose that they will run the state
of Oregon so long as I am governor."
It Is understood that District At
torney Hume has, In accordance with
the . governor's Instructions served
notice on twenty-seven banks in his
district, and other district attorneys
throughout the state have been in
structed to take similar action in
their districts.
The law wider which the governor
Is working is section 3413 of Hill's
code, which provides that when the
governor is informed, or has reason
to believe, that any bank in this
state has or holds on deposit any
funds or o'her iroicrty which have
escheated to this state, he shall direct
the district attorney lu the district
where such bank Is located, to file lu
the circuit court an iiuonuatlon or
hill of discovery, with proH-r Inter
rogatories, to bo answered by the
owner, agent or munagcr'of said hank.

Puck recently-published a cartoou,
representing the American (aimer
with his wheelbarrow load of pro
duce seeking the markets of the
world, while in one corner the same
farmer is buying a home-manufactured
coat, from McKlnley, repre
sented to be marked up 3.1 per cent.
The obvious Intent of the cartoon is
to convey the impression that the
farmer haa no home market for his
produce, and that the McKlnley tariff
law caused him to pay more ror his
woolen goods. The facts are that
American manufactured woolen
goods were marked down Instead of
up after the passage of the McKlnley
law, and be could buy his coat
cheaiMtf Instead of having to sty
more. On the subject of a home
market the American Economist,
referring to this cartoon of Pucks'
ay: "For the Information of this
political babe and foreign suckling,
we repeat, as published In the Amer
ican Economist of August 3d, that
the total American consumption of
all goods Is $ll,60o,0i0,000 a year,
while the Imports of all other coun
tries of the world Is only 7,;5!,000,.
ooo, ;so that the home market Is
worth to us over $l,000,000,(HK) more
than all the other markets of the
world to which we can possibly have
access. I n the case of farm pnxl ucts,
to which this lying publisher partic
uhrly refers, their total value in the
United States for the census year
m was f2,460,00O,O00, of which we
exported only s.i.32,000,000, letting
the demand from our home market
at 11,928,000,000, every dollar's worth
of which secured better value to the
farmer than the Vt per rent that we
shipped abroad In competition with
producers In other countries. A He

rHCCHISESEFOOT BlUIM) PRAC
TICE. According to Dr. Hasten (China
Med. Missionary Jouru., June, 1S93)
tho ordinary method of bluding th-
feet Is as follows:
While the great toe Is left straight,
the other toes are folded on the plan
tar surface of the foot, often until the
tils of the toes are on a line with the
edge of the Inner side of the foot, and
then the foot is bound . 'Vuugly."

If swelling takes place above the an

Swelling Is not a desirable complica

for it is usually a sign that the foot I

The cost of moving wheat from the
Palouse country to Portland is
cents per bushel, aud the market
price of wheat Is from 2(5 ) to 28 cents.
The cost from here is C cents a bushel,
and the price is 30 cents. If the
wheat Is as good, which it Is pre
sumed to be, why should not the
price be 8 cents more than in the Pa
louse, since there Is that difference In
the freight? Again, wheat is selling
at 70 cents kt hundred In Portland,
or 42 cents per bushel, and the freight
Is 6 cents, leaving 30 cents, with 3
cents for warehouse due and com
missions, why should not the price
here be at least 83 cents? The Italics

When the McKlnley bill passed its

Imagine. He was personally de

namber of flattering Invitations to

them to occupy Ids entire vacation.

In 18C7 only 4i er cent of all our
Imports were free of duty, customs
duties being paid on DO per cent.
But In 1892, after a qusrter of a cen
tury of protection, 56 s-r cent of
our Imports were free of duty, a cus
toms tariff being paid only on 43
per cent. That is the way that pro
tection decreased "the burden of tax
ation." A year later only 02 3 5 per
cent ol our imports were free of duty,
an Increase in dutiable imports of 3
7-10 per cent in a single year. That
is the way that the threat of free
