ULTOfi SLATED FOR JUDGESHIP AN Hia Nomination May Not Be Confirmed IN Without Struggle. i The passage of the bill creating a w judgeship in Oregon has served to velop a report that Senator Folton 11 be named judge. An understand- it is said, has been arranged ough William Hitinoock for Fultons me to be seDt iu abont Marob 5 by 1. Already, before tbe fact that ton has been picked is established, d goes to Washington that opposi will be ottered on account of Fnl- a nil.,....) . n ." 1 j . ni ; .. i : AThe situation e similiar in that res- ipcuu iu luo uuuiiug yi v. v. vajiiuu as federal judge encoeediDg the late C. B. Bellinger. Cotton, at tbe time Annnwit 1 , . II r D A. XT , - , . yn , ruirwy company, was namea Bixai- ton's request. Cotton's commission j was aotually made out and forwarded, L when by private arrangement be re- was named. Senator Fnlton in executive session again objected to confirm John C. Youug as postmaster at Portland wben tbe nomination was called up by Sen ator Bourne, a. whose instance Young was appointed by President Roosevelt Tbe situation therefore is eleotiio be tween tbe two Oregon senators, justi fying a guess that Bourne, if be can, will oppose Fulton's confirmation if appointed. It is doubted in many quarters that Senator Fulton will become United , States distriot judge for Oregon with out opposition. It is admitted that he will perhaps be closer to tbe appoint ment than other lawyers of tbe state who may get into line for tbe position, , but it is predioted that be will have to move some to win tbe appointment. ven with bis handicap. When Eastern Oregon asked for 'a federal judge, John T. Rand, of Baker City and Congressman Ellis wanted tbe job. Other men after tbe place are James A. Fee and Judge Lowell of Pendleton, Judge Bean of the state supreme oourt, Judge Beusou of j, Klamath Falls and Judge Burnett of Salem. WOMEN ARE WOMEN. :: . A Rather Roundabout Wey to Prove the Proposition. Men say women are angels; women lay women are cats. Let us pause a moment and reason upon this thing. If women are angels however, that does not seem to be the proper start ing point Let us try again. If angels are cats bat, no; that Is hardly reasonable, for angels have wings, and cats do not fly. We must begin again. If women are cats but that isn't possible, for cats do not talk, and how could a dumb animal express an opin ion in words of a woman? Whatever cats may think, they never say a word about a woman, while women well, women are not cats. Now let us return to the first propo sition. If women are angels, they wouldn't say women are cats. Angels don't talk that way. Once upon a time a man married a woman. lie said she was an angel; the women said she was a cat Happy man, not to know the difference be tween an angel and a cat! Men say women are angels, and by this token women say angels are cats. Therefore, angels being cats, cats must be angels, and, both being the same, women are women. Which Is precisely what tney are.

Tbe Supreme Court has affiinied tbe decision of tbe United State Circuit Oourt for the District of Oregon, ten tenoiug Toy Toy, a UroatiPa Indian, to life imprisonments MoNeils Island for the niurdor o Annie Edna, an Indian woman, upon the Umatilla, reservation August 34. 1300. xha Suptenje Court also sustains the Cir oott Couibiu its deulul of a babe, oorouawrit That Portion of Northern Spain Got Its Name. The country now called Mexico was not so called till 1810, wben the revolt against Spain began. Up to independ ence the country was called New Spain and was divided into the same number of provinces as Spain, each with name of a province in Spain, with the prefix of "new," but New Mexico was not included in this division. It got its name in this way: In 15C1 Francisco Ibarra was in charge of an expedition of exploration into what is now northern Durango and southern Chihuahua and discov ered an Indian village near where San ta Barbara now stands in which tbe houses were whitewashed and the pec pie made and wore cotton cloth, rais ing the cotton in the neighborhood, He wrote nn account of his discovery to his brother in the City of Mexico, tening mm ne nna aiscoverea "una nueva Mexico," a new Mexico, another Mexico, meaning that be had found another town like the City of Mexico, and thereafter all this portion of north em New Spain was known as "Nueva Mexico" that is, New Mexico which name it has retained, though now much reduced in extent Las Vegas Optic. Muskrat s For Meat. Of all animals that supply meat to man the muskrat has been the most abused and the least understood, says the Baltimore Star. Its name bad bred in the public mind a prejudice that has been almost unconquerable, but truth will prevail in spite of fate. As a fact the muskrat is one of the neat est and most delightful of animals. It Is a crank in cleanliness. It dines with the care of an epicure. It eats only the whitest and tenderest morsels. And its flesh has qualities that can be compared only to terrapin. Indeed, there are good people along the Chesa peake, where all tbe best things live and grow, who find in the well served muskrat satisfaction that is equal to the dlamondback. Only tbe Ignorant and tho prejudiced think differently, and they may be educated. Ripening Bananas. It Is a familiar fact that bananas are imported green, but it came as a new thing to a visitor to the banana district in Colombia to find that ba nanas are not permitted to ripen on the plant even down there. They are cut and set to hang somewhere until they wither ripe, as the phrase is. Bananas do not have to be yellow to be ripo. That is only the color of the skin when it has dried up. To the person who is accustomed to eating bananas only wben they are yellow It seems odd to peel them when they are green and find that they are perfectly ripe within and fit to eat New York Sun. HOLY GROANING. The Prisoner's Retort. It is a prison chaplain's duty to give a departing prisoner good advice and to exhort him to be a decent and hon orable man In tbe future. In the course of one of these interviews a chaplain sold, "Now, my friend, I hope you'll never have to come back to a place like this." The prisoner looked at him thought fully and then asked, "I say, chaplain, you draw a salary here, don't you?" When the chaplain replied in the af firmative the prisoner remarked, "Well, Bay, it mo and the other fellows didn't keep coming back you'd bo out of a Job."

Buckle gives n graphic picture of the tttitude of tbe kirk of Scotland to worldly pleasures during the seven teenth century. Cheerfulness, especial ly when it rose to laughter, was to be guarded against Smiling might occa-' slonally be allowed; still, being a car nal pastime, it was a sin to smile on Sundiy. No husband should kiss his wife and no mother her child on the Sabbath day. Jesting was incompati ble with a holy and serious life. The ministers were given much to weep ing, groaning and lameutntious. One, the Rev. Alexander Dunlop, was noted for his "holy groan." To engage in tho frivolous nil of writing poems was condemned, Men should not disport themselves with music; dancing was a "serious sin;" Joyousness even at christening was a scandal. One should speak and walk with gravity and so lemnity; he should not enjoy his din ner; only the ungodly relished food. The great object of life was to be in state of aflllctlon. Whatever pleased tho senses was to suspected. Whatever was natural was wrong. The church men grew sour in countenance, harsh in voice. Joy and love disappeared or were forced to hide in obscure corners, ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE. In tbe Connty Court of the State of Oregon for Umatilla Connty. In the matter of tbe estate of Joeepb A.
