THE Dayton Journal, which, no doubt
would be delighted to see General SCHENCK
nominated for Governor by the Republican
party, says that mo man who has ever
swerved from the straight line of Republi-
can principles should be made our (the
Republican, standard-bearer."
That's as much as to say, that some par
ties in the Republican party are guilty of
purpose to infiict upon the Republican
party some candidate for Governor who
has not always been unswervingly true.

To take an oath with a mental reserva-
tion is bad-is sinful-is immoral-and we
are glad that the Cleveland Herald is de-
nounclng in Southern people. We used
to condemn it in the higher law men of the
North and we have not got any more af-
lection for it now than we had then.

The WAY enc rIonex Goes,

A. w. LEE, a clerk in the Loan Branch OF

decamped. Thirty thousand dollars were
distracted from the same Office not long
before. The Republican party is in power.

Democratic Victory at BurIing-
ton, Iowa.

On the 4th, the Democrats were glorious
ly triumphant, in the charter election at
Burlington, Iowa, electing their candidate
for Mayor by nearly 400 majority. The
City Council will stand Democrats to 8
Republicans. The Democrats had not in
tended making party issue; but the Re-
publicans forced it on them, and the result
is entirely satisfactory to the Democrats.

OUR Republican contemporaries are hard
to please. If the Democratic press shall
not work themselves into spasms over re.
ported negro child-whippings South they
are berated soundly for not having human
ity; and if they denounce the whipping to
death of a child by Puritanical preacher
in the North, they are accused of over
"sensitiveness." 1t would appear from
this, that we should ignore our race in all
things, and think, dream, and write OF
nothing but the Negro, and him glOrifed.
In cold weather, such as we had yesterday,
this is decidedly cool.

THE United States Senate rejects all ap-
pointments of Conservatives made by the
President; but confirms all Radical ap-
pOintments made by him notwithstanding
inquiry as to their qualifications to dis
charge the duties of the offices to which
they have been appointed. Is this the way
to look after the interests of the country?

flow westerly and converge into the main
stream, that enters the Columbus jus, above
the northern boundary Of Oregon. AT the
mouth Of the liver was located the Hudson
Bay Company's Fort Neg Perez. or Walla
Walla. 1t was built in 1920, by an officer
of the Northwest Company. and consisted
ola stockade 200 feet square, eighteen
feet high, with broad walk on top, with
two bastions at the northeast and south
west angles. The timber used in its cor
struction was driftwood from the upper
Columbia. In the immediate vicinity of
the fort are plains of drifting sand, ex.
tending back of the river several miles,
the only vegetation being wild sage. This
fort was stopping place and depot for
the Brigades, as the trading parties of the
Company were termed. In later years, it
was the supply post and entrcpdt of Forts
Hall and Boise, and the trapping parties
of the interior. Supplies from Fort Van
couver. intended for these establishments,
were forwarded by land from this point,
while such as were designed for the upper
Columbia, were transported ria the river.
This fort was burned in lS42, and rebuilt
with adobes. In November, 1855, shortly
after. the outbreak Of Indian hostilities,
it was taken by the Indians and plundered,
since which time it has never been occu-
pied by tho Company. In its vicinity,
Col. Kelly. of the Oregon Volunteers, had
two days battle with Indians who had
robbed the fort. gaining decisive victory
over them. In this action, the notorious
Pu-pu-mox-mox, head chief of the hostiles,
was slain.
The town of Walula now occupies the
site of this old abandoned fort. Being the
eastern terminus of the regular established
trips of the steamboats, Of the Oregon
Steam Navigation Company, an extensive
forwarding business is done here. 1t may
ALEC be considered the port of the city Of
Walla Walla, distant some thirty miles
east, as also great distributing point for
the rich mining regions of Idaho and Mon
tana.
Whitman's missionary station (Waiilat-
pu) was located on the banks of the Wal.a
Walla, about seven miles west Of the site
Of the present city Of Walla Walla. l.
was established by DR.. Marcus Whitman,
in the fall of 1886. under the auspices Of
the American Board Of Foreign Missions.

Two friends were travelling on the
same road together, when they met with
n bear. The one in great fear, without
a thought of his companion, climbed up
into n tree, and hid himself. The other
seeing that he had no chance, single
handed, against the bear, had nothing
lefl but to throw himself on the ground
and feign to be dead for he had heard
that the bear will never touch Il dead
BODY. As he thus lay, the bear came
up to his head, muzzIing and shutting
at his nuse, and ears, and heart, but the
man immovably held his breath, and
the beast supposing him to be dead,
walked away. When the bear was fair
iy out Of sight, his companion came
down out of the tree, and asked what 1t
was that the bear whispered TO HIM.
"for," says he, ~ observed he put his
month very close to your ear why "
replied the other, sit was no great Sc
cret ne only babe me have care how

they get into difficulty, leave their

A MAN who kept n horse and An Ass
was wont in his journey to spare the
horse, and put all the burden upon the
ass's back. The ass, who had been some
while ailing, besought the horse one
day to relieve him of part of his load
"FOr, IT," said he, "yOu would take
iair portion, shall soon get well again !;
but il you refuse to help me, this weight
will Kill me-" The horse however, ,bade
the ass get on, and not trouble him with
his complaints. The ass logged on in ST.
lence, but presently, overcome with the
weight of his burden, dropped down
dead. a. he h. d foretold. Upon this,
the master coming up, unloosed the
load from the dead ass, and putting it
upon the horses back made him carry
the ass's carcass in addition. ALAS, for
my i'll nature I" said the horse "by re-
rusing to bear my just portion Of the
load. / have now to carry the whole OF
it. with dead weight into the bargain"

punishment along with it.

But the driver Of the ass disputed the

A STAG one summers day came to a

The Charger and the ASS.

A CHARGER adorned with his fine
trappings came laundering along the
road, exciting the envy OF poor ass
who was trudging along the same way
with a heavy load upon his back. Get
out of my road !" said the proud horse,
or shall trample you un Ter my feet"
rhe ass said nothing, but quietly moved
On one side to let the horse pass. Not
longafterwards the Charger was engaged
in the wars, and being badly wounded
in battle, was rendered unfit for militia
ry service, and sent to work upon a
arm. When the ass saw him drag
ging with great labor Il heavy wagon, he
understood how little reason he had to
anvy one who, by his overbearing spirit
IN the time of his prosperity, had lost
chose friends who might have succored
him in time Of need.

4 STAG that had fallen sick, lay down
on the rich heritage of a lawn, close 10 a
wood-side, that she might obtain an
asy a-turaGe. But SO many Of the
lra,ts came TO see hcr-for she was q
good sort orn ighbor--thrt one taking
II little, and another little, they ate up
all the grass in the flace. So, though
recovering from the disease, she pined
for want, and in the end lost both her
| substance and her life.

'Ihe lion and the Bulls.

THREE bulls fed in field togetherin
the greatest peace and amity. a lion
had long watched them in the hope Of
making prize of them, but found that
there was little chance for him so long
as they kepta all together. He therefore
began secretly TO spread evil and SLAM
derous reports Of one against the other,
ill he had fomenteda jealousy and dis
rust among them. No sooner did the
ion see that they avoided one another,
and fed each by himself apart, than he
fell upon them singly, and SO made an
easy prey of them all.

unite. of foes.
