NEWS FROM NIAGRA.
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.

This obstruction may be a stricture or

over a fence or through a dense under

trouble with that quarter of her bag,
and in milking and forcing the thickly

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.

It Is Dangerous to Neglect a
Cold.
How often do we hear it remarked ;
•* It’s only a cold,” and a few days later
learn that the man is on his back with
pneumonia. This is of such common
occurrence that a cold, however slight,
should not l*e disregarded. Chamber*
Iain’s Cough Remedy counteracts any
tendency of a cold to result in pneu
monia, and has gained its great popular
ity and extensive sale by its prompt
cures of this most common ailment It
always cures and is pleasant to take.
