MORE WIFE-BEATING.

The Coos county Coast Mail - which,
by the way, is one Of the NEW NORTH
VESTS most racy and readable ex-
changes-tells the public Of another
opponent Of wOman's acknowledgements,
George Cammen by name, who has
beaten his wife in a most shocking and
brutal manner. Mrs. Cammen is de-
scribed as lady Of amiable disposition
and quiet temper, who commands the
respect of all her acquaintances. She
has faithfully attended to her duties as
wife and mother, and has humored the
caprices Of her unworthy Superior for
many years; but she Is now driven from
home aud compelled to seek safety
among her neighbors. The Mail right
fully calls upon the neighbOrs to horse
whip her protector" but, bless you
they won't. And if she enters COM
plant against him she'll only get him
fined at her own aud childreus' expense.
That's always the way it is done, and
the wives Of such voters as will beat
aud abuse them, in spite Of faithful
obedience and trucklig submission to
their drunken "eaprices," are generally,
If not always, on short rations, in spite
Of their toll, and consequently can i'll
afford the fifty dollars and costs" which
the majesty Of the injured law requires
as salve to soothe its dignity, when
offended by such occurrences. The
whipping post, and not fines, will meet
the requirements Of such case as the
above.

Salt Lake dispatches show that there
is possibility Of a rupture in the Nor

Brigham Young, Jr., Albert Darlington,
and Cannon, in the celebrated suit over
the estate Of Brigham Young. John
Taylor, by filing indemuifying bonds,
has been released from contempt pro-

marks the beginning of the strife which
shall cause the downfall of polygamy 10

WHITTIER IS HE DRIFTING p"

IL is as amazing and alarming as it is
humiliating aud disgusting to note the
awfully corrupt, dishonest, aud every
way dishonorsble conduct Of the Stand
ard during Mr.. Noltner's much-to- be-
regretted illness. Some days ago that
journal published a report of a scandal
Gus nature, accusing the Reverend
Hines, Of La Grande, and a respectable
woman Of his congregation Of an in-
famous crime. That gentleman at once
forwarded an emphatic denial Of the
charge to the Standard and OregoniGn,
accompanied by cards from Messrs.
Huntington and Baker, the brother and
husband OF the slandered lady, also de-
nying the reports and entirely exoner-
ating Mr.. Hines. Then the interim Of
the Standard threw more mud, accusing
Hines OF denying the truth Of Hunting
toms and Bakers reports. But he sptly
asked the public, in closing, to tell him
"whither he (the Interim was drifting?"

Speaking Of the more brilliant en-
dowments in the way of gorgeous
plumage which nature has bestowed
upon male than upon female birds, the
Walla Walla Union says: ave shall
not endeavor to account for this PARTIAL

nature, but leave it to the New NORTH
WEST to fill the pictrre on that side Of
the question" That is easy enough;
most Of these fellows are utterly useless,
and the economy of nature is only able
to draw a balance sheet by rendering
them ornamental.

Htej}jqucer says:
We think the time to pick apples is from
the 18th of October to the 10th Of November.
This may seem late 30 some, but our expert
eucc is that apples left on the trees late keep
much better and are better favored than
those picked earlier. We have reference
now to cider and Ridge Pippin apples.
Baldwins would have to be picked month
earlier, or else they would fail To the ground.
RuSscts PROBABLY should be picked about the
1othof October. Wiue-sap'app ought to be
left ont as long as they viii stay on the trees.
For kceping apples in an ordinary cellar it
is well to have the bottom of the bin eight or
ten inches from the floor: keep doors and
windows open as long as IL does not freeze
much in the cellar, for we may let it freeze a
little without injury, but when We are com
PEELED to close the cellar tight TO keep out
severe cold there should be some means of
ventilation. Probably board tiUe placed il
