The wife of Charles Barret, of
Strathory, Canada, was walking with
her husband through his wheat field.
when she was attacked by a monstrous
blowing adder. The first blow was on
her leg, at the knee, and the second
left the snake fastened to her skirts.
She endeavoured to shake him off, and
ran, but tainted before she had gone
ten feet. Her husband then caught
the reptile by the head in q hay rake
and it was killed. When inflated it
was six inches in diameter and five feet
long.

COMFORT.

Tho' love be bought and honor sold,
The sunset keeps its glow of gold,
And round the rosy submits cold
The white clouds hover, told on fold.
Tho over-ripe the nations rot,
Tho right be dead and faith forgot,
Tho one dull cloud the heavens may blot
The tender leaf delayeth not.
Tho all the world lie sunk in i'll,
Tho bountcous autumn's mellow still,
By virgin sand and sea-worn hill
The constant waters ebb and all.
From out the throug and stress Of lies,
From out the painful noise of sighs,
One voice Of comfort seems to rise;
" 1t Is the meaner part that dies"
-Ed,pin Morris.

The Junction Republican is the wild
est and frothiest sheet that our good state
,tolerates. 1t screamed in frenzied accent
for Grant and Grant only, and now that
the Chicago convention in its wisdom has
seen 6t to drop the much-travsled Gen
sral, it whoops as loud as ever for Gar
fold. Just like the man who was chas-
ng the burglar, shouting "stop thief," !"
until the latter hastily turned and lodged
his boot in the pursuer's abdoman, who
thereupon turned Immediately back at
full speed, shouting 'tstop thief" as be-
fors We have only contempt for those
who Aaunt the "bloody shirt" as their
only argument against Democracy, and
this journal is one of the most fragrant
of the kind. Its articles read like thun-
der storm in . theatre, with no rain as
aa accompaniment.

TASTE FOR READING.

The pleasure and profit to be derived
from the cultivation of taste for good
reading are not easily over-estimated.
The man who has this taste, and the
means of gratifying it, possesses that
which, under every variety Of circum-
stances, will be source of happiness and
cheerfulness to him through life, and a
shield against it's ills, however things may
60 amiss or the world frown upon his en-
deavors 1t places him in contact with
the best society in every period of his
tory-with the wiaest and the wittiest-
with the bravest and purest characters
that have adorned humanity. 1t makes
him denizen of all nations centem-
porary Of all ages-she companion of the
good and gifted everywhere. There is
q gentle, but irresistible coercion, in a
habit of well directed reading, over the
whole tenor of a mans character and
conduct, which is not the less efectual,
because at works insensibly, and because
it is perhaps the last thing he dreams of.
How important then that the plastic mind
Of youth should be moulded with this
end in view-the cultivation of taste
for good reading.

HaaIeek Precinct.

BLALocK PRECINCT, june Is, 1880.
EDS. LEADER: In your last issue find
reference is made to the wrong that was done
to the people of this precinct particularly and
the blow struck at the fairness and equality
of elections in our county and State generally.
For want of poll-books no voting was done in
Blalock precinct, but according to Sec. 9,
chapter IA of the Code, 'eitis the duty of the
County Clerk to furnish to one Of the judges
OF every election precinct in the county with
two poll books, at least five days previous to
to the time of holding any election" Has
our successful candidate tor County Clerk
done his sworn duty toward this precinct
when he delivered the poll-books to non.
resident of the State! Rather, did he not
violate the plain letter of the statute in so
doing! The County Clerk was an interested
party to this election, and he should have
been twice yigilant to guard the peoples I'M
terests. and in this way escape any just criti-
eisnl.
The Constitution of Oregon provides that
"all elections shall be free and equal" Has
not this negligence on the part of the County
Clerk been the means Of frustrating an cleo
tion in Blalock precinct! Perhaps the senti-
timent in this precinct toward the regular
ticket was too well-known 10 make an cleo
tion in Blalock precinct desirable event
The people Of Umatilla county have another
morsel in this to stimulate them to reflect be.
fore they are driven to support regular tick
cts. Will Mr.. Keeney arise and explain why
he did not furnish the poll books to the prop
er parties, and above all, why did he carry
the poll.book to Walla Walla and leave them
with nonresident Of Oregon as he is said
to have done! Sec 40 of chapter II pro.
vides special instructions to all persons con.
cerned in conducting elections, and if Mr..
Keeney has not violated that section it is a
strange affair. We hope that the County
Court will see the rights of all protected.

ssme days ago Judge Lassater of
Walla Walla and . gentleman of this
city took prospecting tour up Pine
Greek with view to ascertaining the
feasibility of building fume. Ths re-
suit was extremely gratifying. The slope
is easy; and tho costof construction would
be comparatively trifing. We under
stand that Mr.. Lassater was more than
satisfied with the prospects and that
he will at once commence the work in
good earnest. That there is money in
such an enterprise no one doubts, and
now that the scheme is known to be q
practical one, the means Of carrying it
out will soon be forthcoming.

THE INDEPENDENT with characteristic
simplicity stated that Democrats and
Republicans united to defeat the Division
party. Tom Lucy, Of our city, can testi-
fy to the .'trading-of" to elect some on
both straight tickets. Democrats Of
Umatilla County can now see that those
Republicans who took hold of Division
at Weston and Milton acted in good
faith. There were not six straight Re
publican tickets voted at Weston, while
there were over sixty straight Democratic
tickets. Most of the latter were favor
able Of Division, but voted against it be-
cause they were "afraid af the Republi-
cans" The result shows where the
trouble really was,

Tbs Isdspsndens said before election
"yots for county officers regardless of
their tickets" and then little further
on said "but vote against candidates on
the Division ticket" Hewever, instead
Of being taken to task for it, we suppose
they should be congratulated for publis-
ing two ideas Of their own in the same
issue, even if fatty contradictory. They
remind US somewhat Of a iberal-minded
and respectable Republican friend who
pncs said to as in conversation, "Yes I'll
always vote for the best man, regardless
Of politics." then added abstractedly,
:..'but I'll never vote for 9 Democrat. !"

3kH. GARFIELD.

1t is amusing to watch the Radical Press
fall meekly into line and earnestly and sincere
ly laud their presidential nominee. Not many
weeks ago they were all denouneing him as
being untrue to the best interests of the coun.
try owing to his championship Of the high
tariff on the pulp Of wood: the most important
element in the manufacture of paper. As we
stated not long ago in the LEADER, it was
MIR. Garfield'h support of this odious and op-
prcssive tariff, that caused US in common with
every newspaper in the land to pay double
price for our paper. Every journal experienced
the result of his course and denounced him &C.
cordingly. But now he is the Republican
candidate for President and the Radical papers
support him. Again, Of late years it has be-
come the habit Of some prominent Radical
papers to advocate Free Trade. Those same
papers are now adding their strength to at
tempt Garfield boom. Why, Gen. Garfield
is the prince of protectionists and for the time
being those journals who have been stealing
democratic thunder will be obliged to lay their
Free Trade doctrines on the shelf until after
the election. Consistency, thou art jewel. u

The E. 0. speaking Of another method
of effecting the division of Umatilla Co
says: "This is the honest and only way
to divide this county" There are stupid
ignorance and insolence both condensed
In that one sentence. 1t is gratuitous
insult to nearly 700 voters who testified
their approval of electing ticket on the
issue. 1t is not the "only" way, and the
writer of that article would do well to
post himself on the subject before let
ting himself loose ON a long-seffering

The election is over. The people of this
eaanty sksed wisely in defeating the bogus
of6ss4sesking Division candidates for the iegis-
laturs. Now let = petitison be circulated be-
tween this md tlse meeting of the legislature,
Aa6ning the lines. and asking that body to pass
m act dividing the county into three counties,
subject toa ratification Of the voters Of the
county. This can be done harmoniously, and
II it is the wish Of the people to divide there
eill be no trouble about the matter. This is
AAe hsasst and enly way to divide this county,
and if those who have harped SO much about
division are honest as they professed to be
they win assist in the matter, and what they
attempted to do by force or fraud will be done
in an honest and legitimate way. Let mass
mastiag be eSiled and lets agree upon suitable
lines and then 90 to work as brothers, and
not in manner that will cause any strife and
contention, Of course everybody cannot be
suited 10 she location Of the county lines, for
IL II only natural that every man should work
for his own interest and want county seat at
mis- door. We would like to hear from the
people in different portions Of the county in re-
fspsnce to the matter.-East OrcgoniaH.

The little Independent which thinks it has
been working against Division all the while
tperhaps it has been, no one noticed), puts up
its rooster and shouts victory, because Di-
vision has been defeated. 1t is nice to see the
little thing feel good over it anyhow, and
imagine it helped to do something. Like the
little boy who was blowing his breath in the
direction of the great oak tree when it was
overthrown by the tornado, and then laughed
and chuckled believing he had done it all. It
strikes out with its feeble meanness at the de-
feated, and crawls up the side of the defeated,
like the worm over the prostrate sleeper, and
laughs its childish glee, when, to it. own sur.
prise, it has reached the top. But it is nice to
see the weak little thing happy.
