The latest "cure for consump-
ton" has been discovered by a
Russian physician, DR.. Portuikoff
of Samara, on the Volga. Having
observed that consumption and its
cognate disorders are unknown
among the Tartar tribes who hab-
itually drink koumis, or fermented
mares milk, both as a beverage
and a portion Of their daily food,
it occurred to him that koumis
might possess medical properties.
He accordingly started q koumis
establishment at Samars, and tried
the mares milk with consumptive
patients, with highly beneficial
results.

One of the students at Dawson
College, who was too lazy to dc
anything right, was in the habit OF
cleaning out his lamp chimney by
running his finger down it as far
as he could and twisting it around,
After he had cleaned it out in this
partial manner one day, not long
ago, a fellow student took it up
and carried it to the residence OF
one Of the professors, with the in
quiry: "Why is it that this Chin
ney is smoked just up to this point
and no further r. The learned
gentleman entered into an elabor-
ate scientific explanation of why
it was, arguing with great lucid
ness and citing various authorities
to show the correctness of his rea-
soning. When he had finished,
the student said to him: mo,
sir, you are wrong" "Why is il
then ?" inquired the professor,
because the fellows finger wasn't
long enough to reach any further
replied the student.

A gentleman entered an omnibus
not long since, carrying with him a
bag, which he placed on the seat be-
side him. Soon after young wom-
an took the adjoining seat. After
bestowing frequent looks Of sur
prise and indignation at her neigh
Dor, who remained unconscious of
her disquietude, she suddenly
sprang upon her feet, and exclaim-
ing, "Insolent!' gave him a box on
the ear. The assaulted one ventur-
ed to ask why he had become the
recipient of this favor. "You
pinched me-" exclaimed the lady,
furiously. The gentleman, looking
under the seat, brought to light a
magnificent live lobster, which had
escaped from the bag.

The Boston Laboratory gives as q
waterproof dressing for boots,
shoes and leather, the following !:
Lard oil, 100 parts; paraffin, so
parts; beeswax, 5 parts. Gently
warm the oil, and in it Dissolve the
parafIin and wax. If too hard add
little wax. Any disagreeable
smell may be removed by few
drops of oil of sassafras. The wax
prevents the crystalization Of the
parafIin, and the oil causes the
whole TO become paste Of the
consistency Of tallow. The dress
ing fills the pores of the leather,
does not dry, but keeps the leather
soft and pliable. Boots and shoes
to which the dressing is applied,
may be polished, using ordinary
backing, which is not the case
with most dressing containing oil
or grease.

leaning on the fence, evidently to

WHAT ZAcoHEUs DID.-A story is told
OF certain newspaper proprietor who
relieved his dishonesty by spice of
humor. The agent of large manufac-
turing house went to him to protest
against frequent assaults in the edi.
torial colnmna.
"What the devil is the matter?" asked
the latter.
''All you cay is an internal lie! But
then we feel that we can't afford to have
this thing go on. What shall We do to
stop it,
The proprietor appeared abstractcd
for few moments, and then remarked
II was thinking about character in
the Bible. Let me see! His name was
was Zaccheus. What did he do? Oh,
yes; he climbed tree to see the Lord
and he didn't see him, either. What
did he do then? Do you remember,
Mr.. Agent, what he did then?"
"He came down, I suppose"
"Ah, yes!-thank you-that's it! He
came down, sensible fellow; he came
down.
The parable was fitting. Tho agent
initiated the example of Zaccheus, and
the journalistic batteries were instanta-
neously spiked.

IAN EVIL TO BE ABATED. "

Last Saturday evening q man, crazy
with drink, shot at a woman in one Of
the low doggeries that infest our city,
and an officer of the police, hearing her
screams, rushed to the rescue, and re-
ceived a mortal wound. Commenting
upon this dreadful visitation Of drunk
enness, the Bulletin says:
It is not because OF the shocking murder that
was perpetrated in a saloon In this city kept
by woman, last Saturday night. that we now
say no such houses ought Ia be licensed or al
lowed here, and yet that murder IS the occasion
for what we do say on the subject. Licensing
liquor saloons TO be kept by women is a far
greater evil than Il can ever be 10 license SINH
lar saloons to be kept by men. Whatever may
be thought Of licensing drinking saloons at all
under any circumstances, by this one or that
all will Hgree. we imagine, that women ought
never 10 be engaged in that style OF traffic
Only class or women who are anything hut
an honor 10 their sex or a credit 10 society Will
engage In Il, and therefore they ought not 10
be allowed To keep such houses. Had not the
house In which that brave and faithful officer
received his death wound last Saturday night
been permitted, schoppe would now be living,
ones would not be plunged in the unutterable
grief which wrings their hearts. nor be thus
shockingly bereft OF their loved and fond pro-
tecior. License or no licsnse let there be no
moro licenses 10 this most Objectionable class
OF houses. let licenses issue only To- men,
Community has no more Schoppes TO sacrifice
While there is much truth in the
foregoing, yet there is much of that
silly prescription against women for
which the Bulletin editor is notorious.
Experience has taught that women
will, through their financial necessities,
follow the example of the class Of men
with whom they are associated. or
course, We agree that women should
never keep saloons, but, after all, tchy is
1t any worse for disreputable woman
to earn her bread in this way than it is
for disreputable man TO do so? Is the
house in question the only one where
tragedies have occurred in this city :?
Why should licenses be Issued to men
II 1t is wrong to issue them TO women? I?
Did no house Of prostitution or drunk
enness exist in this city, we should have
little need for policemen, and then
community would sacrifice no more
Schoppes." But man demands the pres
ence OF women in these places, and this,
only, is why they are there. Women
who keep saloons are dependent for =
livelihood for themselves and little ones
upon such occupation as the world OF
competition offers them, and the insidi-
Gus injustice that condemns in woman
the very business which 1t condones in
man well merits the disapprobation of
all clear thinkers.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN MICHIGAN.

As evidence that the great Methodist
Church has more confidence in the
power of God than to imagine that a
few conscientious men or women can
thwart His great designs by intruding
moral facts and arguments, as well as
prayer, into the Church upon public oc-
casions, we call the attention of Brother
Izer 10 the fact that the State Confer
ence of Michigan passed the following
resolutions at its late session 'cittOm n
negdtirc uOte:
WHEREAS, The Legislature OF Michigan, At
its recent session, has submitted 10 the electors
OF tho state n proposition to change the state
Constitution 30 as 10 admit the women OF Mich
igsn TO the elective franchise; therefore,
Resolrei, That this Convention recognizes the
action Of the Legislature step toward a
higher and purer administration OF the Gov
ernment of our country, and we hope the pro-
vision will be adopted.
What a terrible thing IL was for God
that our brother wasn't there 10 keep

TEMPERANCE PARTY.

We have strenuously opposed, from
the first, any partisan political action
upon the temperance question, The
men who were so unwise as to be led by
certain Independents" to put up a
mongrel State Temperance Ticket, COM
posed of candidates from all other polit-
ical parties in the already over-crowded
field, should have learned enough from
their former defeat to be warned
against repeating the mistake. The
most that temperance people can safely
do is to quietly use their influence to
get temperance men nominated upon
the platforms OF the various parties and
then keep out of the contest AS parti-
sans.
We knew from the first that the Re-
publieans leaders in this city had no al
filiation with the temperance party in
the late city election, and we also knew
that the whisky and Oregonidn influ-
ence combined would defeat the Re
publican nominees from the very mo-
ment that We learned the action of the
temperance men.
We have not, for 4 long time, seen
anything in the Oregonidn which we
commend 50 strongly as its last Tues
days leader. That article does much to
exonerate its writer from the suspicion
that we have for some time entertained,
that the OregOnian faction secretly
helped to put up the State job for ''tem-
perance" which did so much to make q
Democratic victory.
But, much as there is to commend
in that editorial, we see that it is
all upset in another, in which the Re-
publican party OF this city is charged
with working as a ring with the ten-
peranee people. Alas, there isn't So
briefly enough among Republican lead
ers for that They are just as far re-
moved from total abstinence as the ore
gohldn clique, and hundreds Of them
voted for the successful candidates for
Councilmen against their political pro-
elivities rather than concede to anything
that looked like temperance.
But we are not sorry, after all, that
the temperance people are routed in this
little city fight. They must learn that
it Is not woman's prayers alone, but
woman's votes as well, that will tell

PARTISAN SUFFRAGE.

BY reference to condensed report of
the recent Suffrage debate in the Senate,
to be found elsewhere, our friends will
see that twenty-five Republican Sena-
tors voted and paired in favor of Woman
Suffrage; only eighteen Republicans
voted and paired against it. while the
thirteen Democrats voted unanimously
against it. Thus 1t will be seen that a
majority Of the Republican Senators are
in favor Of Suffrage, while the Demo-
cratic ones are unit In opposing it.
And yet, when we say word in favor
OF the action Of the only party that be-
friends US as a party, We are accused by
Suffrage independents" whose disor-
ganizing work plays constantly into the
hands OF our enemies, Of being "sold" to
''debauching influences"

LADIES' TEMPERANCE ALLIANCE.

The reading public was somewhat
startled yesterday morning by an an
nouncement that Ladies' Temperance
Alliance, consisting Of sixteen members
and five officers, had presented a petit
ton, in very sensible manner, as We
think, to the City Council, for the object
Of suppressing, or further regulating the
sale of intoxicating beverages.
As the NEW NORTHWEST was ''made
up" for the week before the interested
public had heard that there was such an
Alliance" we are compelled to defer
publication OF petition and comments
until the next issue. But the petition
was "tabled" as = matter Of course, and
there we believe it will lie till the
women are voters.
