THE DIFFERENCE.

We find in the Oregonjdn of Monday
the following dispatch, dated Council
Bluffs, February 26:
Susan B. Anthony, since her arrival in this
city few days ago, though refusing TO be in
terviewed on the subject, has talked freely
with her friends concerning the Bowen-Beech-
er-Tilton complications. She makes no secret
OF her belief in Beecher's guilt. Though pro-
'fessing no admiration for either of the others
named, she nevertheless asserts that If any
have grievances, they are the ones The Ad-
visory Council she regards as a white-wash-
ing move, and thinks the ultimate result of
the whole affair will be Beecher's death, though
he will probably never confess his guilt, hav-
ing determined otherwise when the troubles
first began. Mrs. T1lton first confessed her
guilt TO Mrs. Stanton, and subsequently to
Miss Anthony, Serself, and of the truth of her
confessions at that time, Miss Anthony had no
doubt It is the latter's desire TO avoid all pub
licity in connection with the scandal.
Editorial comments in the same paper
show so completely the mental caliber
of their author, and his evident desire to
distort facts, that we give them-their
only significance being the photograph
of the narrow mind from which they
emanated:
The lrrepressible and immortal Susan b.
not having had an opportunity TO appear in
the Beecher affair as a witness, is resolved mo-
to be prevented from having her say about il
in some way. She is reported to have ex
pressed her opinion concerning the matter a
Council Bluffs, lately. She agrees with Bower
as to Beecher's guilt, but beats him out o
sight as witness. Bowen was vague and in
definite, while the venerable Susan is explicit
and clear in her statements. How much i'm
portance will be given to her statement re
mains to be seen.
Now, which deserves credenee, tn,
statement in the dispatch that Miss An
thony desires to avoid all publicity il
the scandal, or the opinion of the sapi
ent editor referred to, that "she is re
solved to have her say ?" "How mucl
importance will be given to such flip
pant, untruthful statements, remains t
be seen.n

Wanton and unprovoked cruelty is
often spoken of in a manner that would
lead one to suppose that it was a merit
Instead of a crime. For instance, we
find the following heroic ~ act recorded
in religious exchange:
A Mr.. Calhoun killed large deer last week
near Olympia, first throwing a stone and
knocking it down, and then cutting its throat
with his pocket knife
An act of barbarity that thu pangs OF
hunger would scarcely justify committed
merely because a man had the power to
destroy "a helpless life so wild that il
was tame" and his instincts led him tc
use that power.

We copy the following from the Sun
day Welcome on account of its striking
contrast to the babble of those who per-
sist in airing imaginary grievances at
the expense of facts so plain that ga
wayfaring man, though fool, need not
err therein:"
The mercantile community was startled last
Saturday by a report that Mr.. H. w. Scott, Col
lector of Customs at this port, was removed,
Up to this writing the report has not been con-
irmed. We speak the sentiment of the entire
commercial community when we say that Mr.
Scott has given the very best of satisfaction
and his removal would be condemned by all
If unfortunately he should be removed, we will
express ourselves more at length upon the sub

LETTER FROM LA GRANDB.

To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NORTHWEST:
/. 1t was with pleasure and the deepest
interest that read in your paper the
proceedings of the o. S. w. S. A, held
in Salem, Oregon, on the 9Th inst. 1
had very courteous invitation from
Mrs. F. F. Victor, the Corresponding
Secretary, to be present at your meeting
and address the meeting on any snbject
that 1 might select, and am exceed
ingly sorry that could not comply with
the invitation; but circumstances over
which 1 had no control-such, for in
stance, as the closing up of the C0lum-
bia River-prevented. 1 assure you
that nothing would have given me more
pleasure than to have been present and
co-operated with you and the many
other able and outspoken advocates o.
the rights of women. Hoping that the
cause which you have so long and Sc
ably advocated in your paper and else
where may soon triumph over all oppo
sition, remain yours, NJ. BAKER.

CHANGE OF BUSINESS.

We learn through the columns of the
Pacific Christian Advocate that Mrs. l..
F. Turner, ex-editOr of the late Temper
dIace Star, has entered largely into the
manufacture of "wines for communion
service" Ministers are requested to
purchase these wines for the above pur-
pose by the quantity. Doubtless Mrs.
Turner will make this last investment
pay better than the temperance paper
did. But it does look little strange to
see so exemplary temperance worker
degenerate into wholesale liquor
dealer.
