EDITORIAL NOTES.

HE BeeCner' llltOI SEdlIu"' J." y"
ING revived again in New York Mrs.
Tilton has Just been eXcommunlcat'
ed from DR.. Beecher's church.
INGERsoLL says there is only ar
enough III North America to float
one Aag-tha stars and stripes. Isn't
that plenty?
TIE Eastern press is now discuss
ing the propriety of having kearney
appointed "Prolessor of Profane His
tory" in Harvard College. Pretty
good hit.
SENATOR Conkling, of New York,
is said to be almost sure to carry of
the Senatorial honors in his state
again. He is, today, one of the
most popular men in the nation.
IT is said tnat the socialistic move
ment in Germany is assuming for
midabe proportions; insomuch that
the Government will attempt to sup
press it by rigid laws.
THE Tacoma "Herald" thinks there
is strong probability of a renewal
of hostilities with the Indians in
Eastern Washington. 1t urges the
establishing of military post either
in Yakima or Kittitass valley, and
says that quite as much force will be
necessary to prevent the white set
tiers from rising EN- MAssE and ex
terminating the Indians as to keep
the renegade savages in check. Mat
ters certainly DO look somewhat un'
certain.
THE New York "Sun" has a long
account about a crack Drained fellow
named S. w. Wood who claims that
w. w. Davies, of Walla Walla, is
the Comforter whom our Savior said
He would send to the world. He
says that,in 1866 this Davies, while
in Montana, had it revealed to him;
that he afterwards went to place
near Walla Walla, w. t., and or
ganized society called "Redemp-
tionists." Wood proposes to go to
England and there proclaim the glad
tidings.
ANOTHER war with the Indians
of Eastern Washington is thought
10 be imminent. One hundred and
twenty. FIVE Umatillas have left their
reservation, donned liberal amount
of war-paint and are going about
frightening the white settlers. On
the other hand, the numerous mur-
ders committed by the Indians dur
ing the last war have nearly all gone
unpunished, and if hostilities are re-
newed it is almost certain that the
outraged settlers will make the con-
test one Of determination.
Our neighbor across the way
quotes from the Portland standard
the modest news that the Port Town.
send "Press," is "about "a hundred
miles ahead of its rival, the ARGUS,
in the race for journalistic honors."
The above quoted assertion may be
true enough for some, but it depends
largely upon the definition attached
TO Journalistic honors." The Press
certainly Is ahead, clear out of sight,
IN the matter Of getting all of its
candidates defeated in elections, or
in securing hundred. dollar appropri.
ations as remuneration for secretly
supporting candidates on the oppos.
ing ticket, Or in grossly maligning
public officials and then retracting
merely to prevent being mulcted for
heavy damages, &c. These are but
a few Of the many points of similar
character in which 1t fairly distances
the ARGUS. From this showing it is
quite evident that the Portland
"Standard" has peculiar IDEAS OF its
own about what constitutes "journ-
Rlistic honors."

How WHISKY PAYS. Some years
ago we had in our employ man, who,
several times in the day. ran out of
the office to buy drink of whisky.
Every time he went out the cashier
was instructed to drop ten cents into a
drawer to our credit. At the end of
seventeen months, the man who had
gone out 50 often had drank himself
out of a good situation; and the draw.
er, when opened, was found to contain
four hundred and nine dollars, which
w loaned TO young mechanic at Z
per cent. interest. He used it to pur-
chase u set Of timers tools. On the
10Th of February, 1876, he returned
it to us with interest, saying in his
letter that he has now q wife, two
children. and property worth five
thousand dollars. The other fellow is
a hummer, hunting for iood.--[Pom-
eroy's Democrat.

A city contemporary that keeps a
close eye upon mercantile affairs re-
ports growing disposition among our
merchants TO dispense with "drum-
mers," and says there is quite a flutter
among the profession. Undoubtedly
the traveling-salcsman system has been
abused. and there is a cheaper and
better way of reaching customers than
spending the large sums in this direc.
tion which some houses have been nc.
to do. A reaction. to some
extent at least, is in order.

The average life of the ordinary ar
tifcial wooden leg is said to be about
three years. A Wisconsin gentleman
has invented and patented what he
claims is an indestructible leather leg,
which recommends itself on account of
its lightness, strength and durability.
II is made OF sole leather, coated with
a preparation which makes il water
proof and very hard. The socket is
entirely separate from the leg proper,
and can he adjusted with ease. II is
said 10 he from one 10 two and hall
pounds lighter than any wooden limb
made. The inventor being unfortu.
nately compelled himself to wear one
of these substitutes. knows what i
needed, aud claims to have solved the

There is q great deal in kiss. Ad.
ans first kiss Of Eve must have been
OF a queer sensation-like the feeling
of man who fss: ate IN oyster. In
ancient Rome, kiss was a religious
ceremony. The nearest friend Of a
dying person received his soul by n
kiss, for the soul was supposed to leave
the body through the lips. Pliny'
thinks the Roman women began to
degenerate when they kisscd every
body promiscuously. Among the ear
ly Christians kiss was "the seal Of
prayer" Ii was treacherous sign in
Judas the betrayor. In our times
kiss means a good deal-from the kiss
between two young ladies, to the kiss
es recorded in the following stories.
Here is number one:.--
A tender swain reproachej his fair
one with letting a rival kiss her hand,
a fact which she Indignantly denied.
"But | saw it," "Nay, them" cried
the offended fair one, II am convinc.
ed that you do nui love me. since you
believe your eyes in preference to my
Number two is also very sharp and
quite pithy-
A gentleman kissed a lady's hand
in ft of gallantry. She deliberate
ly drew her glove Of and threw it on
the floor. "why do you do that" he

fire, "don't like to see dirty things w.

TAcklINe the WRONG T0ncAT.

A man he owned q terrier dog
a bob-tailed, ornery cuss,
And that there pup got that there man
In many an ugly muss.
For the man was on his muscle,
And the dog was on his bite
And to kick the dorg -goned animilc
Was.sure to raise fight.
A woman owned Thomas cat.
That tit at fifteen pound;
And other cats got up and aid
When that there cae was around.
The man and his dorg came along one day,
Where the woman she did dwell,
And the purp he growicd fcrociously,
Then went for that cat pell-mcll.
He tried to chaw the neck Of the cat,
But the cat he wouldn't be chawed,
So he lit on the back of that there dorg
And bit! and chswed! and clawed!
oh! the hair il flew! and the purp he youled
As the claws went into his hide,
And chunks Of fosh were peeled from his
side
Then he fummexed, and kicked, and died!
The man he ripped, and cursed, aud sworc,
As he gathered big brickbat,
That he would DC burned essentially
If he didn't kill that cat!
But the old woman allow cd she d be blessed
if he did,
And snatched up an old shotgun,
Which she fired aud peppered his dia-
phragm
With bird shot number ono.
They totcd him home on . window blind,
And the doctor cured him up,
But he never was known to fight again,
Or own another pup.
Folks may turn up their shoots at this here
rhyme,
] don't care a cuss for that!
All want to show is, that fighting dogs
May tackle the wrong Tomcat.
