Niagra is one of the suburbs of Blaine and the trails are so crooked up in this part of the country that only those guided by divine providence ever get here. That's the way we came to arrive. Matt Thompson was up here Sunday. He says he was guided by the evil one. And that our trail would make a snake track look straight. Matt was one of the candidates for the Legislature at tbe primary this spring but ran in the wrongdirection.and beat bothof the other candidates out at the little end of the horn. But Matt is a good fellow and is just as popular w here he is known as other candidates who spent more time and money electioneering. The deer are eating my garden and the game law is in force. What am I to do ? I put up a scarecrow, made up in the likeness of Jean Rowland, the mighty hunter of these parts, but they chewed the whiskers off «nd Hutted it over the fiist night. Does the game-law recognize the plea of self-defence ? Some fellows in from the valley trout, fishing last week says they had pretty good luck, but complained of the law that made it necessary to measure each trout before they caught it, so to be sure that it was six inches in 1-ngtli they said it hindered the sport somewhat. They went up to the falls to try to spear Borne salmon, but when we showed them the trail in the rock that the salmon had worn going around the falls in the night, they got discouraged nnd gave it up. A letter from John Browning, now in Seattle, says he is well and making money, but gets sw-fully lonesome for the Oregon hills. He says the simple life is the life for him. Ours is one of the lonely ranches which to use the explorer’s phrase •• The hand of woman has never set foot.” The church people send tender young female missionaries to the heathen, and Uncle Sain semis shiploads of pretty school.ma'ams to the Philipenos, who wouldn't appreciate them half as much as some of the lonely bachelors in the Oregon bills. As Lawson says, there is something wrong with the system. I will send you my receipt for snail pot-pie in my next. I claim to have brought the first type, writer into this part of the country. I carried it twenty miles over the trail on my back—it is a typewriter machine not a typewriter girl I am spending most of my spare time (which amounts to alsiut twelve hours a day) in trying to write the great Ameri can novel I expect to Jack Londonize the world some of these days.

Illustration shows instrument both open for cutting and closed for inserting. This obstruction may be a stricture or other growth of a tumorous nature, which is often the result of the bite of a dog. a kick ora bruise caused by going over a fence or through a dense under brush ; or the cow may have had some trouble with that quarter of her bag, and in milking and forcing the thickly curded milk out, a small rupture had resulted, so that when the scar tissue formed, the opening became smaller. I also carry of German silver milking tubes, four different lengths. Improved Instruments for opening obstructed teats without cutting. Fead Probes or Sounds. A Ladv Has the Floor. Postmaster Robbed. W. Fouts. Postmaster at Riverton, M r E ditor , —I was reading the pro la., G. nearly lost his life and was lobbed test of a few Oregon ladies against ladies voting in this state. They re minded me of an old song all the style 50 years ago : L ords of C rbation . The Lords of creation men we call, Who think they rule the whole ; But they’re .much mistaken after all, For their under a woman’s control, For ever since the world begun It has always been the way, For did not Adam, the very first man, The very first woman obey ? Ye Lords, who are present and hear my song, I know you will quickly say : Our size more large, our nerves more strong, Should the stronger the weaker obey ? But think not though these words we hear, We shall e’er mind the thing you say, For as long as a woman’s possessed of a tear Your power will vanish away. But should there be so strange a weight. As not to be moved by a tear ; Though much astonished at the sight, We still have no cause to fear. Then let them please themselves a while Upon their fancied sway For as long as a woman's possessed of a smile She will certainly have her own way. Now, ladies, since I have made it plain, That the thing is really so. We’ll even let them hold the rein, But we’ll show them which way to go ! For ever since the world began, It has always been the way And we’ll manage it so that the very last man, Will the very last woman obey. Now thin sounds very well, but all ladies do not have husbands, brothers and fathers, whom they can control, and ladies have to live here “ on this ship of state, and in this union, strong and great,” and need laws made for their benefit as well ns the men . These ladies first mentioned do not want suffrage imposed on them. It can’t be, they will not be compelled to vote even if they have the privilege. A man said he wanted to see women vote and would like to see one a judge and call down contesting lawyers. What did he mean ? That the lawyers were careless, forgot their manners and did not conform to the rules of Court and politeness ? Women own property and pay taxes. There should be no taxatiou without representation. Voting is a woman’s right, really ; she is born free and equal with man, and together they should make laws for the common good. A man said the polls would be a shameful place for ladies, men swearing and smooking aiound. But then ladies live with these same men at home. Some men say ladies are not equal in business capacity. Many have proved that they were Even in Bible times a Isay judged Israel four years. W liich proves that she was ca|N«b|e to do so. When I was going to school the girlB were ahead of the boys in all our studies. Indies take more interest in the schools than men and teaches the chil dren more by far. A man knows very little more than his mother taught him as a rule. Some say ladies are not competent. When did men acquire the supremacy in wisdom and common sense ? Some say bad women would vote strange 1 They allow bail men to vote. Some say that ladies would not know who to vote for. I know of a lot of men who have to depend on some one to mark their ballot for them. Are they capable of voting ? More ladies on an average read and writ than men where I have lived. A V ady S ubscriber . of all comfort, according to his letter, which sayH : “ For 20 years I had chronic liver complaint, which led to such a se vere case of jaundice that even my ling er nails turned yellow, when my doctor prescribed Electric Bitters; which cured me and have kept me well for eleven years.’’ Sure cure for Biliousness, Neu ralgia.
