"A Loud Call.

A man kicked up a big row on the
most fashionable street in Galveston.
He was tried for disturbing the peace
and quiet of aneighbor. The accused
denied having been so vociferous, and
testimony was heard on the subject.
A gentleman who lived in the neigh
borhoOd swore: 81 should say he
raised q row. Ny house was four
blocks off, and he whooped SO loud
that my oldest daughter quit reading
the testimony in the Christiancy
divorce suit and went to the window
to see what was the matter, so you can
judge for yourself what a fuss he must
have made"
That settles it, said the recorder,
and he found the man guilty, and or.
dered him to be put to work ON the
streets for disturbing the peace and
quiet of whole neighborhood.

EDITOR TELLER In your issue of the
3lst ult. appears statement as coming
from Mr.. r. Grostien, of the firm of Gros-
lien & Binnard, to the effect that he had pur-
chased certain lumber in Portland, Oregon,
and landed the same in Lewiston at a lower
figure than the like article could be purchas-
ed from lumber dealers in this market. If
Mr.. Grostien made such statement, he said
that which he knew to be absolutely false,
as the following figures will show
Mr.. Grostein paid for the lumber in Port
land at the rate of $40 per 1000 feet, and
paid freight thereon at the rate of $2O;, az.
grcgating $40 per 1000 feet laid down in
Lewiston, and the lumber received was not
seasoned, bat green. Our prices for the
same kind of lumber is s35 per 1000 feet,
with per cent. off for cash. Net, 1873 "a
per 1000 feet, or &c IS per 1000 feet less
than Mr.. Grostien's Portland lumber cost
him.
We would not have noticed the article
had it been mere rumor, but appearing il
your paper as it did it virtually becomes al
advertisement, setting forth that which il
untrue and damaging to an industry that il
| of more benefit to Lewiston than any Othel

stranger. who is a gentleman of ability
and Importance. and man who has some
interest IN the future of this city, gave MS an
interesting lecture on what he considered
the true index of people. Thinking that |
the ideas of the gentleman alluded to might !
be subject for fruitful meditation, we sub.
join briefly his theory. He remarked that |
the works of citizens individually, or collec-
lively, as seen in a city was the proper guide
for stranger by which to determine wheth-
er or not he desired to locate or possess prop.
erty among them. Take for example the
father or mother of respectable family of
sons and daughters, building into man or
womanhood, what are their impressions as
parents, as they step from the steamer and
walk through the principal portion of our
city? Do they Immediately conclude that
Lewiston, so famous abroad for its health
full climate, its productive soil surrounding,
its mcrchantile and commercial advantages
is quite the place to locate with family of
sons and daughters who have up to this
stage of life seen only the examples of a
christenized community! Aud if they are
not, why is it: In walking our principal
business streets they are obliged to leave
them and follow the ditch or the road, be-
cause band of oilers, both men and wo-
men, with feet elevated above their heads,
, and whose shame seems to have departed
from them forever, is the sad picture for oul
childrens meditation. We then abandont
the stress and repair to the hotel as if t.
seclude our gaze from these degrading scenes
but tie house of prostitution Intervene
before our eyes as if it was necessity tina
was imperative and above all others. w,
n enquire why is this, and they tell us it can
i not be helped-the authorities are unable t
Il better the present condition.
n The logic of this is that licensed lust ha
got possession of the city, that the advc
Gates of prostitution and disorder are in tn
4 majority, and surely capital and healthfr
L emigration care not to locate or to be go,
g erned by such a power. If these are not j
o the majority, then why do not those VIII
are in the majority rectify and contro
It these very important matters? The work
" Of citizens as we find them are the true il
IL dex of that people. To permit these degr'
ding exhibitions to continue from year
year without check or hinderance, is concl'
m sive to the strangers mind that the majorit
re concur in and advocate such measures.
But some who are opposed to the TELLE

BUFFALO, New York, has had the honor

between the two cities is three hundred
and fifty miles. The series oil experiments
made were conducted by Mr., ]. +. Noonan,
who claims to have discovered q method
OF adjusting batteries so as to produce
good results in communicating over long
distances, Although the results Of the
tests were not wholly. satisfactory to Mr.,
Noonan, enough has been accomplished
to show the value Of his discoveries, and
to insure the possibility Of long,distanct
telephoninG, Listeners in the Buffalo
Exchange could distinctly hear Mr.
Noonan's "Helloo, Buffalo," and songl
sung at Paterson were recognized at this
end Of the line, In talking, the voice
could not be distinguished amid the heavy
sputtering and swapping noises of the
wire, caused by the heavy battery and by
~"induC!ion" from the Western Union
wires running near the telephone wire.
To the latter cause, probably, is due the
greatest trouble. Telephone men feel COu.
