DON'T LIKE CITIZENSHIP.
A Memorial to be Presented to Con
gress By the Indians.
Young Chief; Charlie Chapless
better known as Charlie Whirl
wind and other Indians of influ
ence on the reservation, don't like
the degrading customs that are en
tailed by the modes of civilization.
They are planning for one of the big
gest pow-wows in tho history of the
three nations who inhabit the
hills of the Umatilla reserva
tion, which is to take place in a
short time. At this great pow-wow
tho whys and wherefores will be
entered into detail, and congress
in a lengthy memorial will be in
formed that citizenship has demor
alized the Indians; that citizenship
privileges him to fill up on fire
water to hir heart's content, and
that he is brought to shame and
degradation by ending up in the
"skookum house," and then con
signed to the chain gang, which is
far beneath the dignity of the royal
siwash.
No doubt the big meeting of the
red men will be one of great inter
est and considerable eloquence, for
there are other chiefs and braves
who have many followers, who, be
it said to their credit are stoutly in
favor of citizenship and whiskey.
Among those who will stand up in
the council and defend citizenship
and the paleface customs, are two
chiefs of high rank and who carry
themselves in the light of "big In
jun" among their red brethern. A
merry time is expected.
How to Prevent Croup,
Some reading that will prove in
vesting to you mothers. How to
guard against the disease.
Croup is a terror to young moth
era and to post them concerning
the case, first symptoms and treat
ment is the object of this item. The
origin of croup is a common cold.
Children who are subject to it take
cold very easily and croup is al
most sure to follow. The first
symptoms is hoarsness; this is soon
followed by a peculiar rough cough
which is easily recognized and will
never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when
the child first becomes hoarse, If
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
freely given all tendency to croup
will soon disappear. Even after
the croupy cough has developed it
will prevent the attack. There is
no danger in giving this remedy
for it contains nothing injurious.

Another Change Talked of.
A change in time is talked of on
the 0. It. & N., which would make
a radical difference in the train
schedules. It is not officially spok
en of. but it is understood the U.
P. is figuring on reducing the run
ning time by eight or ten hours.
This arrangement, if effected, would
also change the Spokane train,
probably making it a night run,
and giving the Great Northern at
Spokane a better connection with
the 0. R. & N. would put on day
local trains from Pendleton to Pay
ton or some other point up the
Washington division. At present
it is all speculation, and no official
information can be obtained on the
subject.
f Indians Returning.
.Umatilla Indians have been re
turning to Umatilla county from
Wallowa county in considerable
numbers for several days past,
with their packhorses heavily la
den with salmon, which they had
caught in the streams of that coun-
ty. ,

MINING IN ATHENA.
A Lady Asks for Information and Gets
It. .
There is a lady in this city who
is interested in the Trail creek
country and is trying hard to learn
and understand mining phrases.
Her husband is doing his best to
teach, her as will be allowed by the
following.
The other night when he return
ed h ime, as he sat on three chairs
and peeled off his boots for the
evening, she said: "My dear, I
wish you would tell me how they
get gold and silver out of a mine.
I thought they bored into the
ground with a pay streak till they
struck the shaft, and then they
drifted for the "
"No, I must stop you there; you
are getting a little off the proposi
tion; you probably have the" right
idea, but you are using terms that
are not quite correct. When they
get the wall of rock on the dump,
then they pick the night shift, salt
the contact and blast out the ver
tical line, then they drift for the
blossom rock, baled hay and pov
erty till they strike the varicose
vein, which is a good proposition.
After that it's a 6hort job to put on
the bias fold and sample their
stockholders, where bituminous du
plex bisects the brocaded porphyry
and scallops the gouge with cross
eyed shearings of bi-carbonate and
bilious colic, interlaced with an
tique quads of free copper and free
milling erysipelas. This is not
always a good proposition, how
ever, for indirectly, or reversely,
perhaps more or less, as the case
might be, and still we might not.
according to whether we did or
did not, perhaps if not as already
described, we wouldn't be positive
about anything that might be
doubtful," and he laughed a cold
laugh and went to bed. .
The only permanent cure for
chronic catarrh is to thoroughly
expel the poison from the system
by the faithful and persistent use
of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. The won
derful remedy proves successful
when all other treatment has failed
to relieve the sufferer.

A cough which persists day after
day, should not be neglected any
longer. It means something more
than a mere local irritation, and
the sooner it is releived the better.
