Az ASTONISHING FAcT.-A large pro-
portion of the American people are to day
dying from the effects OF Dyspepsia or dis
ordered liver. The result OF these dis
eases upon the masses of intelligent and
valuable people is most alarming, making
life actually a burden instead ola pleasant
existence OF enjoyment and usefulness as
it ought TO be. There is no good reason
for this, fyou will only throw aside pre-
judice and skepticism, take the advice of
Druggists and your friends, and try one
bottle of Green's August Flower. Your
speedy relief is certain. Millions o! bot
ties of this medicine have been given
away 10 try its virtues, with satisfactory
results in every case. You can buy a
samp c bottle for 10 cents TO try. Three
doses will relieve the worst case. Posi-
lively sold by all Druggists o. the West
ern Continent.

MULES IN MTNEs.-In underground
places, the intelligence of mules displays
itself in n remarkable manner They
soon learn to obey every command which
their driver gives them. y curious freak
about mules is. that when anything touch
es their heads they dodge while touch
ing horses ears make them throw up their
heads. For this very reason horses can
not be used underground, for they would
soon break their SOULS, while mules never
get injured in that manner. The switch
mules, in the Nevada mines, when the
men are eating, go from man TO man beg
ging for something to eat, and they will
eat cooked meat, pins. drink coiiee-in
TACT, take anything the men have. One
of the mules, when the men are not look
ing Is in the habit OF upsetting the mems
lunch pals and helping itself without
leave. They have also taken to drinking
ice water, and are not satisfied unless they
get their regular allowance. Tie mules
which pull the rock-trains. are driven
three or iols tandem. each having 4 torch
upon his head, which keeps bobbing up
and down as he moves along, and they
present a novel appearance as seen from a
distance in the darkness.

THE "PEssIMIsT. %

We are glad 10 see our able core
spondeut at Washington confessine
himself ready 10 acknowledge the popu-
lar will Of the progressing public in re-
gard 10 woman's enfranchisement, even
though he accepts the inevitable with a
demurrer that, but for his concluding
remark upon the subject, would doubt
lees snd with an obstinate determine
ton to resist the logic Of events to the
uttermost. 1t is not clear to Us as to
how he can conclude, with the pes
simist, that whatever is, is right"
when he tells Us that Woman Suffrage
in Wyoming has not been productive Of
good results, and yet is.
Perhaps our correspondent has had
some experience in Wyoming analogous
70 that of the editor Of the Oregon States
Rights Democrat The editor in ques-
ton is said to be very fond Of his regu-
lar dram. In crossing the continent
last summer he did not encounter the
least obstacle in the way OF his regular
supply Of the ardent till he reached
Wyoming. But when he put up at the
hotel in Laramie City and called for his
accustomed glass of grog, the joke goes
that the landlord was compelled to send
out for the iuebriating article. aud in so
doing made complaint that since the
abominable habit Of voting had been in
dulged in by the womsn of Wyoming,
the unsexed creatures had voted away
his right to keep a bar. OF coutse Mr..
Brown decided that he was not pleased
with the work of Wyoming's women in
politics; aud he had an ally, too, in his
fellow-sutierer for whisky; SO he wrote
to the Democrat, saying that suffrage
for women was failure in the Terri
tory; that it was unpopular, aud so
forth, and the other mems rights jour
nails, whose names are legion, caught
up the refrain aud sent it reverberatiug
from Maine to farthest Oregon.
It matiered not that the governor,
chief justice, the public press, and the
- HAatlAAAN hAA NAAA ~ VI " 'tAAAiH
were unanimous ia their praises Of the
system; for what was all that when
placed in the scale against the individ-
ual wants Of a lorn traveller in search Of
grog? But the time is coming, aye, is
even now upoh Us, when our friend
Brown will exclaim with the pessimist,
as does our correspondent, "whatever is,
is right.n
Here's our hand, brethren. We cor
daily accept your late conviction, and
assure you that we realize somewhat Of

there is more joy over one sinner that

ABOUT RAILROADS.

The railroad discussion in the Oregon
papers has become so common that, but
for the vast Importance of the matters
10 be considered, il would be decidedly
monotonous. In looking at the facts in
a logical sense, we can see at a glance
the great necessity Of a competition
trans-continental railroad. While all
must admit that the proposed Portland.
Dalles, and Salt Lake line is the short
est, most natural, aud most direct line
into Idaho, Oregon, and Eastern Wash
iugtOu that can possibly connect with
any road already built, yet the eosmo-
politan thinker cannot but realize that
with the Northern Pacific line eom-
pleted across the continent, tapping Da-
kota, Montana, Idaho, and Washington.
not only will an immense country he
opened up for immediate settlement
that has heretofore been almost wholly
inaccessible, but the competition with
California's Interests would naturally
compel the Central and Union Pacific
lines TO lower their rates, and TINS
place travel and transportation within
the reach Of all.
And yet wa are glad 10 see Senator
Mitchell pushing the Portland, Dalles.
and salt Lake road bill, and We hope he
will succeed, for, TO our mind, this is
the first road to be built Build it., aud
the other will naturally follow. What
If the North Pacific land grant -hoaId
revert TO the government through the
bankruptcy of the whole eoncerf 3
Cannot another basis of subsidy be had
Is the decision Of the present Congress
upon any question to be finalP We
want the Northern Pacific road, and We
want it speedily; but we believe the
Portland, Dalles, and Salt Lake road
can be the sooner built, and that one
road will only open the way for the
other, and that both will come within a
very few years.
