FOUND AND IDENTIFIED.

Our readers will remembers the COM
munication published a few weeks since
i'm this journal relative to the visit of
Mrs. Charles Walker to this city for the
purpose of identifying the remains of a
man supposed to have been her hus-
band, who disappeared some time last
November near The Dalles, in a manner
that led to the supposition that he was
drowned. This skeleton she was unable
to identify, and returned to her home
still under the cloud of uncertainty. A
few days since body was found near
Brookfield, on the lower Columbia, by
some fishermen, and on it was found
valuable papers that prove beyond a
doubt that the remains are those of
Walker. The body had been in the
water for about five months and drifted
over $50 miles. The widow has again
been notified, and will probably repeat
her sad and toilsome journey hither.
This case shows that honesty and in
tegrity of purpose do not always go
unrewarded, even in this life. 1t would
have been easy for this woman, bereft of
husbands aid, and left with large
family to care for, to have drawn $4,000,
the amount of insurance upon his life,
by claiming the remains that she came
to this city to view as those of her hus-
band. This she decided she could not
do with a clear conscience. Her reward
was speedy, as there can be no doubt OF
the identity of the body now found, and
the friends of the unfortunate man must
experience a melancholy relief from the
dread uncertainty that so long over
! shadOUed his fate.

"HE RHo RUNS nay REAp.n

The direct consequence of state Of
society which places women in subor-
dinate position to man, allows him to be
the purse-holder of the. nation, state,
and family, while woman's needs are as
great, her ambitions as high, her indie
pendence of spirit as uDqueuchable, her
right to equal political and pecuniary
privileges and benefits as undeniable as
are his own, is seen occasionally in the
intrigues of women in high places; in
trigues that would never have been
hatched had women been allowed aught
but covert power. That this power be-
hind the throne is often greater than
the throne itself, is clearly seen in the
cases recently brought to light of the
intrigues, jealousies, and envies that
have sown the paths of Mrs. Belknap
and Mrs. Williams with thorns, and
covered the names of their lords with
infamy.S
In attempting to indicate to women
their special sphere and force them to
be circumscribed thereby, the custom
and tyranny of society has created an
element powerful because of its subtlety,
that occasionally overleaps all barriers
and astounds the world. Development
cramped in one direction avenges itself
upon law and custom by exaggerated
outbreak and abnormal growth in an
al fVi, he
tute a woman's world, we should not be
surprised, nor indeed are we, that some
women turn their vast resources of tai
ent into intrigue in order to attain the
means to lift them to the topmost round
of the glittering ladder of display, and
keep them poised in splendor there.
No wider sphere than this is allowed TO
woman. With her ruling desire in the
ascendant, what wonder that she some
times becomes INSCRIPTIONS in her de-
termination to conquer and possess this
realm? An exchange speaking upon
this subject, remarks with justice and
discrimination:
"And the cry Of 'strong-minded' and 'Out OF
her sphere goes up regarding all those women
who are struggling in the surging flood TO bat
tie these influences and obtain higher sphere
for woman; to secure to her her political
rights, which are unjustly withheld; to elevate
honest wOrk-work with brain or with hands
above dishOnorable and enervating glitter; to
| remove all suffocating and demoralizing bar.
riers and all unjust determinations of SEX
and the glitter receives the homage of society
Lessons like these might seem to produce theil
effect by creating disgust and dread of thi,
ephemeral display, which, as facts testify, i:
too frequently kept up by dishonest means"

KHRP EIH ~ HnME.

Glancing over the nominations for
county officers in the several counties,
we notice the name of E. C. Bradshaw
as candidate for State Senator from
Yamhill county. We hope the voters
of that county will remember, before
they cast their ballots for this man, the
gross insult he offered to wOmaGhOod,
and especially to the women of his own
county and locality, when he disgraced
a seat in the legislative halls of Oregon
two years ago. He it was who asserted,
with vituperative speech and violent
gesture, that the women who were in
favor of equal rights belonged to the
lower classes in society. This assertion
he repeated at least once in the Court
house that the taxes of the women of
Yamhill county have helped to build
and keep in repair, before an audience
composed of many of the denizens of
the county, and citizens of the county
seat. With impudent assumption of a
superiority that is belied by the narrow
gauge of his mentality, and well in
dexed by his ill-favored visage, he, in
the presence of his fellow lawmakers,
offered gross insult to the best and
most intelligent women of the Capital
while the Woman Suffrage bill was
pending, presuming to counsel them as
to the proper sphere for them to fill,
and insolently ordering them to stay at
home aud attend to their cooking and
dish-washing.
Voters of Yamhill, see to it that this
libel upon manhood stays at home and
attends to splitting the wood to keep
the dinner boiling and the dish-water
hot; for, if women are to be kept COP
stantly at the vocations he wishes to
confine them in, the preparation of
stove-wOod will keep such as he pretty
busy. Women of Yamhill county, not
voters, partly because of the vote of
this man, dressed in a little brief au-
thority, cast to keep you in the cate
CORY with the paupers, criminals, and
idiots of your country, try the strength
of your influence to keep his slanderous
tongue from again defaming you, and
maliguing your motives before the leg
islative assembly of the State. Make
him feel that, while you have respect
for candid, respectful opposition to
woman's enfranchisement, you have
none for a slandersT who asserts with
brazen effrontery that "women who
desire to vote belong to the lower
class" Keep him at home. He may
be of some use there. He is certainly
of no use elsewhere.

UNPARALLELED INNOCENCE.

The New York Tribune, speaking of
the way in which men in office have for
some time past been asserting their in
tegrity at the expense of their intelli-
gence, says:
1.-The Credit Mobelier statesmen did it. The
District of Columbia ring, with its over-issues
and its disregard of law, did it. Ex-senator
Harlan, with two 5000 checks, diu il. Secre-
tary Delano's claim was the same. AlFthe In
dian ring availed themselves of it. So did the
canal ring in this State. Minister Schenck,
with his Emma mine scandal, falls back upon
1t. 1t is the plea, in short, everywhere and all
the time wherever there has been dishonest ad-
mnistratiOn, peculatiOn, corruption, knavery,
and robbery. Always somebody is the victim
of conspirators or evil-doeTs, and nobody does
wrong except through ignorance or misappre-
hensiun. The last and best illustration of it
we have seen was not in official life, but it
shows how contagious is the example of repre-
sentative men. 1t was the case of Chinaman,
who, having been caught stealing a gridiron
and was kicked out of doors, turned upon his
pursuer in the most innocent manner with the
inquiry, You no likee lend um p Didn't
know it was stealing, only borrowing. These
gentlemen, all of them, are too credulous, too
easily imposed upon. Why would it not be
well TO require hereafter some degree of intel
ligence in public men? They have abundance
OF integrity, it seems. The trouble is, they
have not the intelligence or capacity 10 make
their integrity worth anything"

REPETITION HAMMERED ON THE
EAR"

While the nation is making such loud
boast of the Centennial birthday of free
dom within its limits, it is a little hu-
initiating TO remember that, to-day,
twenty millions of American citizens
are denied all represenation-'a right
inestimable to them, and formidable to
tyrants only" that they are taxed in
support of the government, yet have no
voice, directly or indirectly, in making
its laws, and this in spite of the decla-
ration century old, that "taxatlon
without representation is tyranny"
We have good DR.. Young for it that
"truth no years IMPAIR" and no one
doubted the truth of this just and most
emphatic sentiment regarding taxa
tion and representation as inseparable
one hundred years ago. The portion of
the people thus outraged have, in every
stage of these expressions, petit
toned legislative bodies for redress in
the most humble terms, and their re-
peated petitions have been answered
with. repeated injury. These are not
the words of the "shrieking sister
hood" men and brethren, as you well
know. Neither are they idle breath
sometimes termed argument; but they
are facts, so stubborn, so revered, and SC
undeniable, that none can treat them
with fiippancy or push them aside
There they stand, to be mockery anC
a blot to our nation until the privileges
Of citizenship are guaranteed to all o
her citizens. Let us hope by "repeti
tion hammered on the ear" to compe
our brethren to give full Interpretation
to the doctrines of the Declaration o
Independence and the Constitution o
the United States during this CeDten
nial year.

AN EXAMPLE OF MASCULINE LOGIC

1t may seem to those who heard the
discussion of the Woman Suffrage
bill in our last Legislature that it is
needless to cross the continent to find
illustrations of the manner in which
some men can render themselves ridicu-
lous, when fancying or making believe
that they are speaking in the interests
of women. We will, however, cite as
an example of the fact that the oppO-
nents of Woman Suffrage are, in the
East, as well as in the West, forced to
substitute unfounded assertion for argu-
ment, and senseless subterfuge for fact,
the declaration of a certain member OF
the Massachusetts Legislature, Morse
by name, "that there is not property
holding woman in Massachusetts, but
has husband, father, brother, or some
other relative, who, prompted by an in
born emotion, looks out for her interests
better than she would herself" The
New York Graphic, commenting upon
the above assertion, says:
"Quite number of New York women, who's,
interests were looked out for by men who
were prompted by an Unborn emotion, o.
something else, have lost every dollar of thei
property within month. Our decided i'm
/ preston is, that that man Morse would like t,
be the trustee for three or four rich widow
and a score OF orphans. And our deliberat
advice to property-holding women, when the!
/ see men prompted by an Unborn emotion Il
look out for their interests, is. to just call in tn
/ police or buy double-barreled derringer."

Now comes John Wesar, of Cath
lamet, and, by card in the Vancouver
Independent, cautions everybody not to
"credit my wife Lucy, she having left
my bed and board without my con-
sent" Weimagine that the 'credit" of
a man who desires to hold woman as his
wife against her will is myth, so intan-
gible as not to be easily impaired. Well
wager hair-pin that the woman sup
ported not only herself, but him also,
until she grew tired, and rashly left his
"bed of boards' without his consent -
We once knew of a man who sold soap
that his wife had made, to pay for an
advertisement forbidding all persons to
harbor or trust her on his account. OF
course he was justifiable in giving this
warning, for he didn't know where the
next soap was to come from to pay bills
with. His wife, misguided creature),
had left, and theincome stopped. Small
wonder that his credit was imperiled.

of the two replicatiOns, alleging its in
sufficiency. He denies that he was
Secretary of War on thd I'd of March,
1876, and denies that he resigned to es-
cape proceedings of any kind. He did
resign on an understanding with CIy-
mer's committee that nothing further
should come of it, and he not be forced
to the defense of duplicating his wife.
He yielded to that suggestion, which
was made by Clymer. The following
witnesses have been summoned, on be-
half of the MANAGERS, to appear and give
testimony in the case: Mr.. and Mrs.
Caleb P Marsh, S. F. Vail, cashier Of
the Bank of Commerce, New York, E.
I. Bartlett, lawyer, New York, and
George A. Custer.
