An Ellensburg paper says snow on
the mountain ranges and in the valley
of the Columbia Is reported deeper
than for many years past, and cattle
arc dying by the hundreds. The snow
In the Dig Bend is I we feet deep, and
on the mountain from three to six feet.
About .1000 head of cattle are still on
the range; the streams are froxen over;
there Is nothing for them te eat, and
unless tbey sre rounded up and driven
out averyons of them will die.
Our homely but strong friend will be
appreciated In time as a medicine, and
if agriculturist would tur-.i their at
tention to raising a model onion, with
the utrong scent taken out of it, families
would be throwing pill to the dogs,
and the doctors would turn their atten
tion to onion farming. Said a doctor :
"J always store a barrel of onions in
my cellar during tho fall. We have
them twice a week, and If any one of
tho family Is threatened with a cold
that party eat onion raw. If this
vegetable were generally eaten there
would be no diptheria, rheumatism,
gout, kidney or stomach trouble."
The immense quantity of snow that
hn fallen, particularly in the moun
tains, during the winter, will make the
advent of spring awaited with no little
curiosity, if not solicitude. What will
happen when those huge snow-drifts
al'gin to melt away is a question that
is susceptible of exciting Interest. It is
probable, however, that the only result
will Ixt the continuance of high water
In the rivers, creeks and smaller
stream further into the summer than
usual, and the abundance of water for
all purjMtses. Heavy falls of snow in
the uiotintain usually contribute t
the prosperity of tho people and are
rather to be desired than feared.
The loy or girl who Is a regular
newspajHjr reader will grow up in in
telligence, and will use good language
iu speaking or writing. It is new,
science, literature, grammar, history,
geography and spelling combined.
The local paper 1 the first to attract
the children's attention Incidentally
they first read of some local event
which came under their observation.
Becoming regular readers of tho local
matter they soon branch off into the
affairs of tho world, read the general
news, and finally become competent
to discuss matters of public intercept
and are useful and intelligent citizens.

The operation of tho new jury sys
tem adopted by the two Dakota will
be Watched with considerable interest
throughout the country. It is the first
attempt to test In a modified form the
Prussian system which permits a ma
jority of a jury to. rcndei a verdict in
criminal cases, the punishment being
scaled from the maximum in propor
tion to tho number voting for the ver
dict. Tliiw is a departure in the Hue of
reason and common sense which com
mends itself. If this method is eupple
meated by making intelligence a qual
ification of Jurors, it can hardly fail to
work aatlaftctorlly;

OBIICARY.
Died, on the 25th day of January, 1890,
at 8weet Home, Linn county, Ore
gon, Dr. J. N. Gilbert
This is a sad blow to our community.
The doctor bad won the esteem of the
people his genial and amiable manners
and Christian deportment, as well as
by proving himself a master of hi pro
fession. His advent among us was
hailed with joy, as w e had long felt
the need of a resident physician. He
was soon busy ministering to the sick
and afflicted, and in his anxiety to
relieve the suffering exposed nimself
to the late stormy weather almost day
and night, and was stricken down
himself, and after a few day of suffer
ing; yielded to the stern messenger
death.
The news of his death shocked the
whole neighborhood. So one was ex
pecting it. It was hard to believe.
The funeral services were held in the
Evangelical church at this place, where
many cougrgated to have one last
look at the one whom they had learned
to resject. The tears that flowed so
freely testified in silent but unmistak
able language of the high esteem in
which he was held by this people. He
leaves a wife and child to mourn his
loss. Thin excellent Christian lady is
deserving the sympathy of this entire
community. A Fhiejcd.
IX THE NIGHT UIUKCTIOX.
' A bill htpi just been introduced in
congress requiring one-half of all in
ternal revenue taxes collected in oach
state to be turned over to its treasurer
for state purposes.
This is a move in the right direc
tion. If the federal government is de
termined not to repeal the internal
revenue laws, but to perpetuate that
corrupting and demoralizing system,
whether the republicans or democrats
are In power, then by all means, a the
government is collecting nnnuall more
than a hundred millions in excess of
expenditures, let a portion f this
fund be handed over to the states from
which It is collected, to go Into the
state treasuries, and to that extent
relieve the people. In most state the
federal government collects annually
about one million and a half more
thau enough to pay all state and coun
ty taxes. If the federal government
will nut stop collecting this tax under
any clreu instances, surely it cannot
refuse to return to the states a portion
of v. hut it takes from them and can find
no use for.
A Good Cough Syrup.
There is nothing parents should be so
careful about as selecting a cough syrup.
Begg's Cherry Cough Syrup costs no
more than the cheap and Inferior nos
trum's thrown upon the market. The
best is none too good. Be sure and get
Begg's Cherry Cough Syrup, Wo keep
it on hand at all times. M. A. Miller,
Druggist.
What a Fortune
Is a good healthy, pearly skin. Few
are aware of the short time it takes for
a disordered liver to cause blotches on
the face, and a dark greasy skin. One
bottle of Begg's Blood Purifier and
Blood Maker will restore this orgxn to
its natural and healthy state, and
cleanse the blood of all Impurities, It
is meeting with wonderful success.
We guarantee every bottle. M. A.
