THE NEGRO PROBLEM.
It is unfortunate for the country
that the .Southern people seem de
termined to force upon it another
nuoulinn U'liiMi will flivmca nnrl
agitate the passions of the citizen
to the extreme limit of patience.
lue agitation or slavery lea to a
long pud sanguinary struggle
which ended with the destruction
of that system of oppression, and
endowed millions of human beings
with the legitimate rights of all
humanity, that of a free and inde
pendent right to person and prop
erty. The negro question as it is
now being urged will certainly
arouse the sympathies or the pas
sions of men, as they shall view
the projects proposed.
The latest proposal is that of
Senator Butler, which he has just
presented to the Senate for action.
It is simply a proposition that the
government remove the colored
people, by a system of colonization
in African dominions.
Simple as the proposition is, it
nevertheless is one, that to the
thinking mind, involved in difficul
ties of gigantic proportions. To
remove by force a native born
population of eight million of peo
ple, who are entitled to all the legal
rights of citizens, which any other
citizen can demand from the laws
of his country, is a dreaming im
agination emanating from the bas
er, selfish passions of man. His
feelings of humanity are wholly
deficient, who can seriously advo
cate such an unholy proposition.
The horror, suffering and barbari
ties which must accompany the
enforcement of any project to re
move, by force or otherwise, a
population now numbering three
times that of our country when
the constitution was adopted.
Modern civilization reads with
horror of the barbarous actions of
those nations who have forced the
removal of the inhabitants of cap
tured countries and cities.
Is that system to be revived by
the nation whose pride it has been
to proclaim that it is the land of
freedom and the asylum of the op
pressed? It cannot be that her
people have lost those feelings, of
common humanity, which are the
inspiration of the highest civiliz
ation of modern times.
The negro problem will eventu
ally be solved, not by ignoring
the rights of humanity, but rather
by recognition of those rights
which belong to all alike.
There is much inconsistency
shown by our Southern brethren
upon this removal question. An
instance can be recalled where
agents were encouraging removals
of the colored people from the
Carolinas to the West The peo
ple objecting, drove the agents
from the state, and prevented the
negroes from migrating.
Again, we have another plan
which we might call the Mississ
ippi scheme, which is nothing less
than an amendment to the consti
tution depriving the colored voters
of the right of sufferaga
Any such wholesale oppression
will meet violent opposition at
home, and the remonstrance of all
the humane powers of the world.
The civilization of the world moves
onward backward, never.
Questions involving the rights
of persons to the extent which is
presented, iu either of the propo
sitions, if forced upon the people
cannot fail to engender a conflict
which would be none the less fierce
than the late war, because the con
test would be in defence of person
al acquired rights.
REPUBLICS WANTED IN EUROPE.
The diplomatic difficulties be
tween England and Portugal has
brought to the surface murmurs of
a slumbering . volcano, which,
should it break forth, would em
broil all Europe in a life struggle
for the continued existence of mon
archical governments.
The success of the republicans
iu Brazil in overthrowing the era-
pire without forcible resistance,
has revived thedatent desires of the
Latin nations in Europe for re
publican institutions, which have
been intensified by the arrogant
demands of a powerful nation up
on a weak and expiring power.
There has existed for many years
in the Latin quarters of Europe a
strong desire for the overthrow of
monarchy, and attempts have been
made which were formidable,
though unsuccessful.
Little Portugal, weak and help
less as against the powerful Brit
ain, can only protest against her
oppressive demands, and appeal to
the greater continental powers.
Already the fires of republicanism
are glowing spreading jritli as
tonishins rapidity. It is exhibited
by the outspoken appeals for liber
ty and the violent demonstrations
against kingcraft and its support
ers. Republican France is active
and violent iu its defense of the
lilwrnl Portuguese, and in its de-
uunciations of the course of
British Ministry,
Germany's great and farseeing
statesman, Bismark, is quick to see
the danger, which threatens the
old monarchies of Europe. Recent
dispatches say that Crispi has ad
vised the old statesman that the
Portuguese dynasty is in imminent
ieopardy and of a formidable corn-
umauuu lor uie purpose or rro-
claiming the Ibernian republic;
fans being the headquarters. It
is further stated, that Bismark has
suggested that the British Ambas
sador advise Salisbury to remon
strate against the violent attacks
of the French press, which is rous
ing passions dangerous to mon
archical institutions and the peace
of .Lurope.
In the existing excited condition
of the republican element, which
the British Ministry has done
much to create it is quite certain
that mere remonstrances will not
avail.
It cannot be disguised that rebel
ion, began in little Portugal may
extend and make Europe one
bloody battlefield, upon which the
right of man to self government
will be decided.
With the nihilists of Russia in
the East, the republicans of the
Latin nations in the West, and the
large liberal and social element
within, Bismark's fears are not
without cause.
RHEUMATISM
18 undoubtedly caused by laotio acid in
ine diooo. xti-s acid attacks tne fibrous
tissues, and causes the pains and aches
the back, shoulders, knpns. anW)a
hips, and wrists. Thousands of people
have found in Hood's Sarsnparilla a
positive chre for rheumatism. This
medicine, by its purifying action, neu
tralizes the acidity of the blood, and also
builds up and strengthens the whole
body.
DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
Successful farming, in any sec
tion of our country, can only be
secured from the adoption of diver
sified farming the production of
a variety of products rather than
confining farming to a siugle spec
ialty.
A farmer should endeavor to
attain an independence from the
resources of his farm, by produc
ing all that it is possible to secure
from its capabilities.
Farming in specialties to often
result in disappointments aud
bankruptcies from seasons dis
astrous to special crops. These
would be avoided to a great extent
should a diversified system be ad
hered to from a possibility that a
season unfavorable to one croD.
may be favorable to another; thus
escaping the evil effects from a
total failure. ..
Every farmer should in addition.
to Ui otHiuieU uiups; Eake it a
business to grow a reasonable
number of stock, according to the
capacity of the farm, but never to
the extent of over stocking.
It has been found from many
experiments, that the feeding of
grain, when prices are low, to
stock, ha returned more money
than could have been obtained from
selling the grain.
The feeding of hogs by the grain
producer would be -a source of
great profit to the f armeiv and a
benefit to the Northwest, by in
creasing the domestic pi'oduct for
the home consumption, and at the
same time keeping money, to that
extent, from going to eastern points
to supply our home demands.
A good example of what can be
done, is shown from the success of
five farmers in Union county, who
butchered 450 hogs this winter,
that averaged 317 Iba At 4 cents
a pound the pork would be worth
$5706. A goodly sum to be retain
ed in the neighborhood well worth
the attention of grain producers.

Tt mav be of interest to our
readers to know that Secretary
Noble has decided that married
women can make timber land en

states of California, Oregon, Wash

conclusively shown that the entry
is made for her own use and bene

IS HEPPNER TO HAVE ANOTHER
RAILROAD?
It has been currently reported
that the Hunt system of roads is
to include a branch road from
Pendleton to Heppner, and thence
to some southern point unknown.
In an interview with a reporter of
the Walla Walla Statesman, Presi
dent and General Manager Hunt
stated that he had never told any
body about the Pendleton-Heppner
branch. As to that matter it must
come from the mortgage just filed.
He further said, that the state
ment that he had sold out to the
Northern Pacific is not true. From
which it appears that the 'report
that the mortgage contains a clause
providing for the building of the
branch via Heppner is true. And
it is probable that Heppner will
become quite a railroad point when
the new road shall be constructed.
WORKING WITHOUT RULES.
Thus far the present house of
Congress has been doing business
without specially adopted rules,
and seem to be doing as well, and
probably better, than has .been
done in the past few years. Eules
are supposed to expedite business,
but in late years advantages have
been taken, through them, to delay
and hinder legislation. If the
house shall refuse to adopt rules,
there will be small chance for pro
longing business by the modern
mode of filibustering. It is proba
ble rules will be adopted after the
committee having in charge that
duty, make their report. Until
then legislative work will meet
with no serious obstruction.
HOP GROWERS WANT PROTEC
TION.
The hop growers in New York
are quite active in petitioning con
gress to raise the duty on hops
from eight to twenty cents,
and urae the Pacific hop growers
to take action at once to forward !
the movement , Some of our prom
inent north-west growers are now
working to co-operate with tLeir
eastern brethren, by circulating
petitions for signatures, from the
most interested.

At the preliminary exumiuatn Doug
lass was held to the gr:iiid -iivtrie
sum of $25(10." ; 1
On Sept. 17, 1SS7, tha Merety con
tained the following, in substa;1, con
cerning the man:
"An apparently untirovokedassault
was made oy a strong, able-bodjd man
upon a tall, slim dndish lookin, fellow
at the corner of First and Jorrison
street.3 Friday night. After (k first
blow was struck the irate man 'as pre
vented from following up the attack.
Upon investigation it was learnt that
the dude escaped a thrashing Jiat he
well deserved.
"The dude was Ward Douglass trav
eling insurance agent, and tue other
was a mechanic who lives in Eas Port
land. "Among the friends of the fam was
one Ward Douglass, a tall, sani-com-
plexioned man, of pleasant addres and
oily speech. The mechanic was jecess-
arily away from home during theentire
daytime. During his absence thi con
temptible, snake-like fiend Dougbss be
gan plying the lady with many filtering
and assiduous attentions. It wan not
long before the oily-tongued schemer
succeeded in accomplishing bis nefarious
plan, and dispoiled the sanctity of his
friend's home. About two months ago
Ward Douglass and the woman stole
away together aud have since, been trav
eling about the stale. With the usual
gall of his profession, he and the woman
returned to Portland Friday. The hus
band found that the couple were stopp
ing at the St. Charles aud determined
to see his wife, and that she should not
again go with Douglass. He accordingly
watched the hotel all night, but the
woman was soon made aware that she
was under surveillence, and concocted a
plan whereby she could escape and re
join Douglass. On Saturday morning a
furniture express wagon drove up to the
side door or. the hotel and the woman
jumped in beside the driver who gave
the horse a out and dashed pell inell up
First street, hotly pursued by the irate
IhosLLi - nui ., .. ', "T
"tkptl"''' - tu" Failing school.
where the husband quietly jumped into
the rear ot the express wagon and rode
the rest of the distance, the persons on
on the seat never looking to see if they
were pursued. When the sohool house
was reached the husband quietly juipp-
ed from the wagon aud hid behind n
street car standing at the end of the
First street line, unobserved by the wo
man. Sue sat down on the school house
steps. Tn a few moments a horse and
buggy containing Douglass drove up
and stopped where the woman was
waiting. The husband then quitted his
hiding place and rushed over to the
spot.
Having both parties together a lecture
was read to them that will not soon be
forgotten. The Dude Douglass soon
showed fear and begged that he be not
hurt and as soon as opportunity afford
ed he cut his horse with the whip and
dashed out of sight. The wronged
husband and wife boarded a Btreet car
and came back down town. Later a
warrant was sworn out charging Doug
lass with a adultary, but the wily bird
could not be found. Some time ago" he
had .been discharged from the employ
of Eugene D. White, on account of some
questionable proceedings on his part."
Between two dash lines in the columns
of the Murcury" containing the aboye
article is a picture of one J. Ward
Boyles, which is recognized in this place
as a . perfect likeness of an insurance
agent who visited Heppner some eighteen
months ago, under the name of Ward
Douglass. Appended is the affidavit of
W. D. Burr, of Leflet Division No. 62 of
the Order of Kailroad Conductors, de
nouncing J. Ward Boyles as a "perjurer.
"defaulter and bigamist," and under oatii
says: "That he has proven fo all the
utter absence of anything like principle
in his composition, and he now stands
before the world a defaulter, perjurer and
bigamist. A man to be shunned by all'
his fellow creatures."
Again Bridget Boyle, of Syracuse, N.
Y., makes affidavit that she is the wife
of James Boyle, which is corroborated
by Julia Curtin, a witness to the mar
riage, and also James A. O'Hara, D. D.,
pastor of St. Mary's church of that city,
who swears he performed the marriage
ceremony.
Then again Mary B. Fitzer claims to
be the wife of J. Ward Boyles, and a
Wyoming minister also testifies that he
peformed the ceremony.
A man bv the name of Ward Douglass.
a life insurance agent, visited Heppner
some eighteen mouths ago and cnt a big
dash. He occupied rooms in a private
house, where there was a young and
handsome servant girl. Wile stopping
there he was taken ill, which compelled
him to remain in bis room most of the
time for many days, always being waited
on by the girl. The lady of the House,
thinking everything might not he
straight gave him notice to vacate the
premises, which he proceeded at once to
do, bis "illness" suddenly leaving him,
and he was daily seen on the streets ap
parently as well as ever. After a short
time he left this city accompanied by the
girl, who, it is said, has been abandoned
by him and now is an inmate of an in
fsmons dive.

Say, but the portrait of J. Ward Boyles,
r ,
which appeaia m Lue mercury, uears so
striking a resemblance to the individual
to whom we have referred as having
visited Heppner that we cannot avoid
drawing a conclusion that it migTit be
the same person.
As to the crime for which he has been
bound to appear before the 'grand jury
at Walla Walla to answer, we are not in
possession of facts sufficient to warrant
a positive conclusion : but being guilty
of gross improprieties within the per
sonal knowledge of our citizens, and be
ing charged under the oath of gocd
citizens with numerous other aud greater
crimes, we cannot bnt ha prejudiced to
a certain degree.
In the Sunday Mercury of J an. 18,
appears a copy of a circular issued by
the Order of Railway Conductors, in
regard to J. Ward Boyles, a synopsis of
which is here appended.
"The subject of this circular entered
the Brotherhood and was sent
as delegate to the ninth annual session
of our Grand Division and was elected
a member of the executive committee
to serve three years.
Before the year had passed away he
had removed the editor of our magazine
and appointed himself instead, although
other names had been suggested and
then had the audacity to claim that he
was the wronged one. Again at the ses
sion held at Chicago, he was shown to be
an arrant rascal, aud stood face to face
with his associates, convicted of deliber
ate falsehood. This ended his public ca
reer as a member of the order.
Since 1381 he has been in the employ
of the C. M. & S. P. B. for a time, but
was soon dsscharged, and was nest
found with the N. P., and there are sev
eral employes of that oompany that can
trace. iheir discharge directly to bis acts.
D. W. Burr, a member in good stand
ing, certifies on his honor that he did
"pay to Brother J. Ward Boyles the
sum ot 5pl8, t various times and places
on account of the Old Bel iab'e Insurance
Association which he failed to remit to
said association, and that I was therefore
debarred from any benefit of said associ
ation, and was stricken from the roll of
said association, as a delinquent mem
ber."
Following this is a complete record o
his marriage wito two different women,
also a statement that he has been ex
pelled from the order and warning oth
ers to give him a wide berth.
