The petition of Hon. S. R Huston
of H illsboro, candidate for tho Ilepub
lican nomination for Congress at the
primary election, i being circulated
here. Our eople will reniemler Mr.
Huston, who was In Lake county a
few months ago getting acquainted
with the people who he seeks to rep
resent in the halls of congress, and
to learn their needs. Mr. Huston is
y an able lawyer, and, no doubt if he is
nominated, will Ik? elected, and his
legislative experience, together with
his ability, fits him for the position
to which he aspires.
A few real plucky senators like Sen
ator Heyburn of Idaho, and Seuator
Fulton of Oregon, who are alive to the
best interests of their constituents,
would serve a good purpose in the
United States Senate just now in put
ting the screws to a wholesale forestry
policy, that is bending the knee to the
future prosperity of monopolist tim
ber grabbers more than it inures to
the present needs of actual resideuts
and homeseekers and the development
of the Western States.
Suffrage is not at all necessary for
protection of property rights. Men
and women and minors who do not
have the suffrage, yet have as com
plete protection in their property
rights as persons who possess it.
Nor are laws regulated by suffrage or
by statutory law, but by economic
conditions. These facts are funda
mental. Oregon ian.
Senator Heyburn of Idaho, has scor
ed a partial victory in his fight against
the Administration's forestry policy,
in as much as the president has sus
pended the extension of forest reserves
pending the action of congress on
Heyburn 'a bill w hich denies the pres
ident the right to create reserves by
proclamation, and gives congress the
power to make reserves.
President Roosevelt has won a par
tial victory in railroad rate legisla
tion. The rate bill as presented by
Hepburn, passed the lower house on
Feb. 8th. The attacks on the presi
dent and his policy by democratic
Senators has almost assured victory
for the bill in the senate.
The lower House of Congress has
passed a bill which will permit settlers
within forest reserves, who relinquish
ed their holdings, to recover the same
since the law repealing lieu land selec
tions deprived them of the chance to
appropriate lands in lieu of their
selections in reserves.
A very peculiar and delicate opera
tion is to be attempted in a Portland I
hospital, the grafting of a rabbit's
eye into the eye socket of a 13-yeai-old
girl who recently had the sad mis
fortune to spill a can of lye in her face
which entirely ate away one eye.
Countess Boni de Custellane, for
merly Miss Anna Gould, is suing her
husband for separation. The count
expects a liberal cash settlement from
his rich American wife, and is some
what disappointed that she does not
sue for absolute divorce.
The Senate has attached an amend
ment to the deficiency bill, allowing
the widow of the late Senator Mitchell
$5,000, which she is entitled to under
the custom of paying a year's salary
to the widow of senators who die in
office.

Mr. Horace Punlap, F.x Sheriff of
Lnkcview arrived at the Miller ranch
a few days ago. Mr. Punlap reports
that Phillip Lynch one of lake coun
ty's largest wool growers had come in
from the desert north of Wnruer val
ley and said that the snow was over
two feet deep and crusted and that
sheep were dying by the thousands.
The editor will get in communica

plorable condition. Merrill Record.
(On the at, Bro. Ramos you will
have to look out for Horace Pnulap.
He's a regular "Foxy Grandpa,"
when it comes to "tlUiug the editor."
Xo doubt Horace is laughing yet over
the till he gave you.
The true conditions on the desert
were published last week in The Ex
aminer, obtained by an iuterview
with Pan Malloy, who had just re
turned from the desert. Mr. Malloy
says the loss ou the desert will be
from 10 to 20 per ceut, which any
sheep man w ill acknowledge is only a
little over average. If Mr. Punlap
saw Phil Lynch while iu Lakeview he
did it through a telescope from here
to the desert. After this when you
are interviewing Mr. Punlap, look
him straight iu the face, and If his
left eye twitches a little and you no
tice a little green spot in it, look out
for him ; he is going to have some fun
with you.

EDITOR EXAMINER: As I have
been silent for several days I will
drop you a few lines.,
We have been snow-bound for a
long time. When we get out I will
let you know. There is no snow iu
this section of Warner at present ;
very little mud and stock are doing
nicely.
The TT Co. put up about 300 cows
and calves this week to feed.
The JJ people are feeding a large
bunch at Peep Creek. J. N. Givan is
feeding his cattle in North Warner
this winter.
Well, Mr. Editor. In my last letter
I told you about Joe Jones selling
out to Jeff Parrish, but Joe could not
stay out of the business so he bought
in again. Joe told me he wanted his
name kept out of the paper, but bow
could we overlook mentioning Joe oc
casionally. The leading man in Plush
society., leading man at all dances an
a very pleasant gentleman at all
times.
A pleasant dance took place iu Plush
last Friday night ; a large crowd at
tended and every one reported having
had a good time.
Ed. Pratt, formerly a ZX buccaroo
has accepted a position ou the TT
raneh. Ed. attended the dance Fri
day night. He tripped the "light
fantistic" in very graceful manner,
until the floor flew up and bumped
his anatomy. Who knows whether it
was an accident, or w hether he visited
The Elephant before going to the ball?
Ry the looks of your last parier the
political pot has begun to boil. You
are right Rro. Metzker ; they ought
to show their colors in the columns of
the home paper, when they step out
fr.r the neooles' votes. If any one in
Warner puts themselves up for office,
they will huve to put their cards in
the "Plush Screamer, " or bedisquali
fied. We have our new Simplex type
setter installed, and ready for busi
ness. You and Rro. Sloss are not
the only hair-crimpers that ever went
into golden locks . See?
Messrs. Wyatt Jc Short, who have
been conducting the saloon in Plush
have dissolved partnership, Mr. Short
retiring. A Mr. H. L. Marchbauks
has purchased Mr. Short's interest.
Mr. Marchbauks is a bright, energetic
and industrious gentleman, just com
ing to the front to try his fortune as
a business man in this great world.
Good luck to you Patsy. He was for
merly Chief Ruccaroo and Broncho
buster on the 7T ranch.
Mr. John R. Roberts, an old soldier
who fought in the English Navy with
Rattling Nelson at Transfigar, and at
Waterloo and also with John Paul
Jones and finally winding up in the
Civil War at Plush, has got the tonsil
itis in both feet, but is able to get
around.
The last letter from "McCarthy
Come Pown " looks as though he was
having a hard time with his big barn.
It was very indiscreet in you, Mc,, to
disturb the religeous meeting. Why
didn't you call on Plush for help?
The geese and ducks are 'coming in
In large flock. We will have to get
up steam on the Retty Rerry ami

i I hud a brief Interview with Pnu
Malloy a few days ago. He tells of au
i Irishman who bought into the nheep
business last (Vtotcr. and took his
( flock to the desert for w inter. The
j snow fell about 2. feet deep, nud the
' Irishman seen that ho was going to
loose his savings so he ascended to the
top of a snow drift and preached the
'Sermon on the Mount" In a fluent
manner. The next day he went out
of business by selling out to Phil
Lynch at cost. ,
Everybody Is making preparations
for a big dance the 14th, lust. Jetf
Parrish and Jake Knuckles each sent
for a package of shoe blacking to
Montgomery Ward A Co., for the occa
sion, aud are looking daily for the
arrival of the packages.
Two young men who are working for
the TT compauy say Harry Roberts is
awfully slow iu sending the cattlo to
the desert ; some attraction out that
way, 1 guess.
"You owe four bits" I do not,"
"You vas von liar." "Regorro, dou't
call me that again you? V?, '. 'T I: ;. ' '
Germany and Ireland came to blows.
Germany throws her whole fleet of
woodou shoes against Ireland's Crown.
Ireland comes back with a full fleet of
shalalahs. August Roguer follows
Roosevelt's policy and makes peace
between the two combatants. Good
friends.
We see Rro. Sloss is writing up a
history of Modoc county, which
should be appreciated by the readers
of the New Era. He ought to tell
them about the time when he was a
boy, aud iu swimming aud punching
the hornet's nest with a stick and ran
for the water.
We get our mail regular, if the snow
is deep. Some of it is a little stale,
but it digests just the same.
Last night at 12 oclock, M., my bed
fellow Rob Farmer aroumsed mo from
my peacefull slumbers nud had the
gidl to ask me if a fellow could get a
license without going to town after it.
Rut Rob is not the only one iu North
Warner that has the matrimonial
fever. Take the fellow w ith the long
nasal that drives the mule team aud
hauls hay for the TT for instance.
Gosh, I wish I were a preacher or
Justice of the Peace, how I would
accumulte the small change.
Jim Haudley came up from South
Warner to attend the dance last Fri
day night. Jim stepped around and
looked like a French dancing master.
A young lady asked how old Jim was,
and he told her he was 2i and a half.
Just what I thought, she said.
Jim McKee is feeding his stock in
the swamp this winter.
Clay Rambo has a man hauling hay
from the swamp to feed.
Maje Fine is feeding a few head of
cattle and going to dances and build
ing telephone line.
John Morris, the enterprising mer
chant of Plush, is waiting on custom
ers and playing with his new boy odd
spells.
Joe Fine bought ID head of cattle
in Surprise valley last month, but we
diil not learn the price paid.
Too much pruise cannot be given
the promoters of the Deut Telephone
line. Everyone should patronize the
line and help keep' it iu order.

PLUSH SCREAMER.
Over-Burdened Women.
Many a man sees his wife bend and
tug at burdens that strain the back and
the heart alike, without any Idea of the
outrage. Children follow In too f;uick
hucceMion to allow the mother time to
recuperate. The womanly organs become
displaced, there are (lebilltatliig.disagree
atilo drains, with the added pain of In
flamed or ulcerated parts. In this condi
tion the woman bravely tries to cBrry her
household load, afraid to take the rest
she needs lest a meal will be late. No
wondur she Is pale, weak, wretched, surly
of temper and snappish of tongue, hho
would be false to nature If she were any
thing else. No persons need help so much
as the class of whom this woman Is the
type. And for such women no help Is so
sure, so wonderful, as that given by I)r.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It re
stores all the womanly organs to perfect
health. It establishes regularity In their
functions. It restores the strained and
btiatten-d nervous system. It clears up
the complexion, rounds out the form and
makes life a daily happiness. "Favorite
Prescription" contains no alcohol or
whisky. It Is the best medicine for
women. Nothing can be "Just as good"
as the best. Tell the dealer ho if ho oilers
a substitute.

of them expressed the belief that even
if fruit did bud early and was damag
ed later by frost the fruit grower
would be saved the necessity of thin
ning in order to have good-sized
fruit.' "That may be all right," said
the other, "but the frost takes too
much oh iu bunches. I'd rather do it
myself, at inoro expense and labor.
Of course Jack Frost has been in the
