WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE 2

"The old leaven of prescription and
prejudice seems to be still at work in St.
Louis Frederick Douglass, the we'll
known colored orator and scholar, it
seems, was lately denied entertainment
at the Planters House i'm that city on
account of his color. The Journal of
Commerce of that city, we are glad to
see, stigmatizes the conduct of the pro-
prietors of the hotel as it deserves, and
says that Mr.. Douglass, fn generosity
and manliness, judged by no other
standard than the act i'm question, and
his treatment of it, is very much supe-
rior to those who perpetrated or author
lied the outrage. .'"-OregOnian
The present leaven Of prescription and
prejudice is still at work in Congress.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the we'll
known woman orator and scholar. was
lately denied opportunity to address the
Senate and House on account of her sex.
But neither the Oregonian nor the
Journal Of Commerce is pleased to stig-
matize the conduct of the 'prOprietorsi
Of Congress as they deserve. And vet
the people everywhere well know that
TINS lilustrious woman is very much su-
penor to those who perpetrated or au-
thorlzed the outrage.

here in Salem who will not have your
paper on any terms.
Your vanity is eXcusable only on ac-
count of the feebleness of your intel
Ieet; but in order to make you "bOmb-
proof,u as Mrs Duniway would say,
against rebuke on that score, what
weakly thing you must be! The idea of
comforting an office on you, to be EARNED
out' to a ''competent deputy" to do the
work, while you draw the lions share
of the pay, strutting around as big as a
large dog, writing '1eading articles for
my paper" how prepOsterous! But
perhaps your faint glimmerings OF in
tellect are not capable of preceiying the
absurdity of your position. If not, then
you are to be pitied more than blamed,
and shows that you are indeed friendless,
or you would have been better advised
Now, Sammy, word of advice. Your
career as editor has not been very brill
liant, and you'd better throw up the
sponge. You never can succeed, never
can be large. Remember the fate of the
toad that strOve, by swelling, to initiate
the size of the OK, and dORtdo likewise.
Speaking of the OK suggests another
thought, and with that / will close.
Sell out your paper, close up business,
and make immediate application to
some first-class COW doctor, that he may
bore your head with a large-sized gim-
let, and have the vacuum, for Nature
abhOrs vacuum filled with pepper and
salt to cure you of the hollow horn.
Yours, serenely,

So Sam Clarke wants the Clerkship OF

Wonder if he'd lift that fifteen hundred

grab at the public crib? We'd shar-
pened our pencil for a full tilt against
the impudence of this canine effete in
thus seeking to secure Clerks fees to

MOUNT JEFFERSON, w. T.,
Feb. I'D, 1872.
DEAR MRs. DUNIwAY:
L write to say thank God for the New
NORTHWEST, the paper for the times;
the paper for the million; the paper for
the whole world; the paper for oppressed
humanity; for all those women who
have all the rights they want; for those
timid men who fear that women will
forsake their homes, and leave them to
care for the babies, do the house-work,
and toll forever for their board and
clothes.
% How / do wish men and women could
change occupations for season. Don't
you think it would do us good for men
to find out by experience just how wom-
en- live? Wouldn't they speedily change
their minds as to who supports the
family ?" Wouldn't they speedily learn
why women are always sick and over
worked, and so often peevish and fret
ful? But they never would understand
it all, for women would always be too
tender-hearted to treat them as they
have treated us. A little of our expe-
rience would be the surest way to teach
them that We really need the ballot.
Go on, Mrs. Duniway, and God bless
you. E.C.H.

conscientious scruples about his own
moral conduct, as well as bigoted sur
